Kobertson manifested more inter est in the trial- than Deal. The former took a seat in the jury box and would have "sat in judgment" had not the Solicitor "persuaded" him that he was in the wrong "pew," and that his valuable services was not needed. Bob Deal was ashamed of Joe's mistake and after earnest efforts succeeded i i gitting him to leave the court-house. They both left on the 1.1:20 train for their re spective homes.

Thc proprietor m Iio had just found a nest of new-born rats in the coffee grinder, told him that he could and then asked him why he didn't go to a hotel.

A Grand Feature Of Hood's Sarsaparilla is that while it purifies the blood and sends it coursing through thc veins full of richness and health, it also imparts new life and vigor to every function of the body.
