Any hold .which the junk business may have 'had on Julius Blumberg, of Harlem, has been lessened materially wnen Jke was robbed this week for the .fifth time in . two months. Persons .whom he mistook for customers dropped in during the afternoon and, as ; usual, tapped him upon the head and removed all trinkets and cur rency from his person. "The last this time was $20 and a gold pin, and, as Mr. Blumberg ex plained to the ever-patient police, it is the last $20 or gold pin with which he ever will be found. The first the police ot Harlem saw of Blumberg was on January 1, when he dropped into a police station to say that he had been in business just eight hours and had been robbed only once. He was congratulated and left a package of language for the police to think over at their leisure. Fully ten days elapsed before he was back, wearing the rim of a derby hat after Starting in the Nose or Throat it Quickly Moves on to the Stomach, and by Impairing f or Destroying the Useful ness of That Organ it Soon Undermines the Health of its Victim. - There is nothing to which the hu man body is subject that is more far reaching" in its effect than catarrh, or that can make life more, miserable for Us victim. That is the way L. M. Mills, well known proprietor of a bar ber shop at 851 Tryon St, Raleigh, re gards catarrh, and this is his account of his experience with it: "For the last three or four years I have suffered "with catarrh of the head, stomach and bowels, which made life one of misery for me. I could not smell or taste anything and I experi enced all of t the torments of indiges tion, j read of the remarkable cures being made by Peplac and am cer tainly glad that I gave it a trial, for the first dose put me in fine shape. Instead of waking up in the morning feeling miserable all over, I now whistle. My-head is clear; the dull, heavy headaches are gone, I have a good appetite, and enjoy my. meals. 1 would not take anything for the good that Peplac has done me." Peplac is valuable in the treatment of catarrh because it Cleans out the alimentary tract, restores the stomach to working order and tones up the en tire system, and when this is done all traces ot catarrh quickly disap pear. Peplac is sold and recommended at R, R. Bellamy drug store, and by all leading drug stores in Wilmington and vicinity. Adv. MENINGITIS srTUATON OH for 1 LIEF Weekly Reports Show Little Change In a Month Columbia, S. C, March 20. Accord ing to the statement of the health offi cials the meningitis situation in the State seems practically the same as that of a month ago. Approximately the same number of cases are report ed from the State each week, as is shown by the weekly bulletins sent by Dr. J. Adams Hayne, to Surgeon Gen eral Blue, U. S. A. The spread of the disease in the city seems abated, as onjy two cases have been reported the past week, the last being that of John Daniels, Jr., in the rear of 1232 Blos som street, on March 14.

The may of the State -whereon the cases are recorded by pins, by th9 secretary of the State board of health, is very thickly dotted and show very little difference between the status now and when the disease' first began in the State.

The Cultivator Blades do not injure these roots although completely destroying all grass, weeds and vines.
