The father of the woman was unabie to say whether his daughter was in the house all the evening or not.

The conductors and gripmen of every car that passed the corner of Geary and Devisadero streets from 8:35 to 8:38 on Sunday night have been questioned as to whether they could identify the woman who boarded a car at that place at 8:45 o'clock.

She did not act nervously and when I asked her what she wanted the poison for she said she wanted to use it as a douche. She gave her name and address as Mrs. Creighton, 325 Point Lo- bos avenue.” There is a vacant lot at that address, living anywhere in that vicinity. Officer Herlihy says that when he saw the | woman in front of the drug store she was dressed exactly as was Mrs. Adams at the time of her arrest, with the one exception that she then wore a black cape of some woolly material trimmed with fur, instead of a black jacket.

The executive committee of the antl- funding committee. which sprang Into existence when the late Adolph Sutro was waging war against C. P.

A majority of the ills afflicting people to-day can be traced to kidney trouble. t pervades all classes of society, in all imates, regardless of age, sex or con- dition. The sallow, colorless-looking people you often meet are afflicted with “kid- ney complexion.” Their %idneys are turning to a parsnip color, so is their complexion. They may suffer from in- digestion, bloating, sieeplessness, uric acid, gravel, dropsy, rheumatism, ca- tarrh of the bladder, or irregular heart. You may depend upen it, the cause is weak, unhealthy kidneys. ‘Women as well as men are made mis- erable with kidney and bladder trouble and both need the same remedy. Dr, the great kid« ney, liver and bladder remedy, will build up and strengthen weak and un- healthy kidneys, purify the diseased, kidney-poisoned blood, clear the com- plexion and soon help the sufferer to better health. The mild and the extraordinary ef- fect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases, such as weak kidneys, catarrh of the bladder, gravel, rheumatism and Bright's Disease, which is the worst form of kidney trouble.
