** I Had a Very Bad Case, Constantly Growing
Worse. I Could Neither Eat Nor Sleep
and Looked Like Death. Nothing Helped
Me Until I Began Taking Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey; 6 Bottles Completely
Cured Me."—J. E. WILLIAMS, 1825 E
Main St. % Richmond, Va.
Nine coses out of every ten of throat, lung,
stomach nnd nerve trouble begin with Catarrh
of the heu'l. PutVy’s I’ure Malt Whiskey .is the
one swift, positivecabirrhgenn killer that cures
without had after efl’ects. its jirescribed by
over 7,0(H) doctors and used in more than t!,000
W V leading hospitals because of its effectiveness and
absolute purity. Catarrh is a blood disease.
Mr. Williams, in his letter, goes on to say:
“I Lad been a sufferer with catarrh for a very
long time. It had affected my throat seriously.
I was never free from headache, and the dis
charges were extremely annoying. 1 lost my
ap]>etite and became listless, weak and thin.
People thought I was going to die. I used all manner of salves, ointments, snuffs and so-
calied ‘sure catarrh cures,’ but nothing helped me until I begun using
DUFFY'S PURE MALT WHISKEY.
In all I have taken but six bottles of your most wonderful medicine and am completely cured.
The Catarrh Has Entirely Disappeared ; I Sleep Well; My Appetite Is
Good; and My Whole System Seems To Have Been Renewed.”
“ 1, have to work over thirteen hours a day, but
now have uoim of that tired, played-out feeling I used
to have. lam heavier aid inall-roundperfect health, 1
thanks to Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey.”
This is just exactly why Duffy’s cures where all
other treatments fail. It goes right to the root of the
trouble and purifies the blood, stimulates the circu- _
lation, quiets the nerves, strengthens the heart’s/f4^ i
action, firings into play all the vital forces, and MfiCI
enables you to get from food all the nourishment itl
contains. It replaces diseased tissues and builds up!
a strong, healthy body, tirui muscles and clear brain'
—it renews the system.
Cures and prevents catarrh, coughs, colds, grip,
bronchitis, asthma, pneumonia, pleurisy, consump
tion and all diseases of throat ana lungs; dyspepsia,
indigestion and every form of stomach trouble;
nervousness; malaria and all low fevers. It is in- "■ || ■ v
valuable in all weakened, wasting, diseased cou-
ditious, no matter from what cause. ^
MAKES THE WEAK STRONG -KEEPS THE STRONG WELL.
It is a promoter of health and rijie old ago. Duffy's contains no fusel oil, and is the only
whiskey recognized by the Government as a medicine. This b a guarantee.
CAUTION.—When \ou ask for Duffy’* Pure Malt Whiskey bo sure you get the
eenuine. Unscrupulous dealers, mindful of the excellence of this preparation, will try
to sell you cheap Imitations and malt whiskey substitutes, which are put on the
market for profit only, and which, far from relieving the Hick, are positively harm
ful. Demand “Duffy's” and be sure,you get it. It is the only absolutely pure Malt
Whiskey which eontains niedirinal, health-giving qualil ies. Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey
is sold In sealed bottles only ; never in ttask or bulk. I.ook for the trade-mark, the
“Old Chemist,” on the label, and he certain the seal over the cork is unbroken.
Beware of refilled bottles.
A PROMISING CLEW IS FOUND.
Detectives Admit Trail Is a Hot One,
Though They Are Cautious About
Divulging What the Circumstances
Relating Thereto Are.
Bedford. Ind., Feb. 3.—Detectives at
work on the Schaefer murder mystery
notiiied the city officials today that
they had what they regard as the
most promising clew yet found.
What it is they have not fully told
even the officials themselves, witu
the possible exception of Sheriff
Smith, who qTiietly left town early to
day, leaving no information as to his
movements.
The search for the murderer has
given rise to activity today in conse
quence of the newly discovered clew.
Detectives admit privately that the
trail is a hot one.
The man under suspicion is not a
resident of Bedford, and is not in Bed
ford at this time. He is not a tough,
but is in easy circumstances.
The authorities will not say that the
suspect knew Miss Schaefer person
ally, but admitted privately that an
intimate friend of the suspect knew
Miss Schaefer.
It is learned that the detectives have
been at work on the new 7 clew since
yesterday afternoon, and are confi
dent that it will lead to some results.
The authorities are getting in every
mail dozens of letters from clairvoy
ants, cranks, people who have theo
ries, dreamers and even threatening
letters are being received.
“No Such Thing ns Alternative Poli
cy” Declares Redmond.
London, Feb. ;!.—“For tht? Irisfc par
ty there is no such thing as alterna
tive policy to home rule,' declared
John Redmond, the leader of the Irish
parliamentary party in the bouse ot
commons today as he resumed the de
bate on the address in reply to the
speech from the throne.
Mr. Redmond proceeded in a speech
ot great length to detail the various
grievances of Ireland, incidentally in
forming the Liberals that it was a de
lusion to suppose they could count on
Irish support by promising an alter
native policy to home rule. Becai» ;
the Irish obtained a valuable act last
year remedying some of the evils of
past government, some persons seem
ed to think that the Irish question was
shelved, but no concession could weak
en the demand for self-government. On
the contrary, every concession they
had obtained or might obtain, will be
used for the furtherance of the con
test for home rule.

Bold Robbery In Chicago.
Chicago, Feb. 3.—While a dozen
terrified waitresses in a woman’s res
taurant at 153 Michigan avenue shriek
ed and fled from the leveled revolvers
of two hold-up men, Miss N. E. Sum
ner, the cashier resisted the efforts
of a third thief to open the cash reg
ister. The cashier, however, was
forced at the point of a revolver and
repeated blows to give up. The de
lay caused by her struggle frightened
the men and they fled after seizing
only the money in the register,
amounting to only about $90. Over
$200 in bills had been placed on the
desk near by. but had been swept to j

Sumner notified the police of the rob

Bertillon’s Wonderful Discovery.
Paris, Feb. 3.—M. Rertillor. has de
villed a now method for the better
idontifleation of unknown bodies tat
an to the morgue. The fact that
photographs of dead persons do not j
always well portray that person as
he appearud when alive, created diffi- I
oulties. These M. Bertillon overcomes ]
by injection of strychnine into the
eyes of the body whereupon the lids
open, the eyes become life-like, the
lips redden and the whole face seems
to revive, making it possible to take a
photograph resembling the person be
fore death.
