Sisters Worth Thousands, Rut Re fused Medical Attention. St. Louis, Dec. 26.-Examination | of the body of Mrs. Sarah Johnson, who, with her sister, Miss Mary Scott, died Christmas evening of pneumonia, apparently in direst want, revealed that a bag around her waist contained $5,604 in cash and three gold watches. In Miss Scott's effects were found deeds and papers showing bank deposits. Little is known of the sisters. They arrived two weeks ago at the ad dress where death occurred, both suffering from colds which developed into pneumonia. They refused to have medical attention because of the cost and declined to go to a free hospital. Although living in the same rooms, they slept In single beds and used samo tables, dishes and silverware. Bills were evenly divided between them. In the delirium preceding death Mrs. Johnson spoke of a daughter living in New Mexico and of a sister In Pueblo, Colo. The elder woman was about 50 years old and Miss Scott had remarked that she was "moro than forty." $100 Reward, $100. Tho readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there ls at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all Its stages, and that is catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure Is the only positive euro now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, re quires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken inter nally, acting directly upon tho blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying tue foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up tho constitu tion and assisting nature in doing Its work?
