Babe Goes On Spending Orgy With Mother's Purse And Cash Washington.—Helen Marie Guck «r-, five-year-old daughter of Mr and Mrs. Robert C. Gucker decided to "step out." Helen became fed up with things about the house {Spying her mother's purse, she coyly extracted $35 and started on a spending spree. The mother missed her tiny daughter, and notified the nearest police station. Meanwhile, Helen had fared forth in all her glory, patronized the candy shops and gorged herself on hot dogs and other edibles, without a care in the world. Finally, she wound up in a bar ber shop, where she usually went for a bob. The barber was a bit suspicious, when he saw her roll and found no adult with her. He too, called the police. Helen was taken for a bit of a ride, which she seemed to enjoy. ♦—NOTI CE—* I, Hugh K. McSwain. a painter, contractor, offer for sale high grade Paint and Varnish and Ka.vser & Allman (Wall Paper.)

INDIGESTION Taxi Driver Goes Back To Medicine He Had Taken When a Boy to Find Relief. Ntcholasville, Ky—"Running a taxi is my business, and I am called out at all times, sometimes Just be fore meal time, and this makes my eating as well as my sleeping very irregular,” says Mr. Jesse Dickerson, of 502 Central Avenue, this city. “I had indigestion, on account of this irregularity. I would feel very uncomfortable after meals. I would be constipated and have dizziness. “I knew I had to take something. I remembered how, when at home before I was married, my mother would give us Black-Draught, and how she believed in it. “So I decided to take it again. It sure did me good. I am glad to let others know what a good laxative Black-Draught is. It clears up a dull headache, and makes me feel like a new person.” Thousands of other men and women find Black-Draught a great help in relieving common ailments, due to indigestion, constipation and biliousness.

The idea of making the pa jamas first suggested itself to a university girl when she noticed she unintentionally had acquired several men's handkerchiefs. They were rather nice ones and it seem ed a shame not to use them for something, and then came the big idea.
