Samuel Sloan, the father, was born Harrisburg in 1810 and died here in 1885, living a long and useful life, and his horse-shoeing shop was on Locust street just around the corner Front, and the family dwelt for vears on Locust street.

COURT CONVICTS WILLIAM SHIREMAN Is Found Guilty of Robbing Newberrytown Postoffice William Shireman, of Newberrytown, York county, was convicted in United States court before Judge Holland of robbing the postoflice safe in that town of $10 worth of stamps on December 9, 1909. Andrew Phillip, residing at 1022 Market street, this city, where Shireman had room, was also arraigned, but not convieted, the evidence not being sufficient. The method the postal authorities used to trace Shireman for the Newberrytown crime were a trifle unique.

For several weeks prior to the robbery Shireman was seen in the vicinity selling packets of court plaster. He frequented the postoffice a good deal and now and then got into conversation with those employed about the place. December 8 he was seen about the postoffice and a little earlier the same day he stopped in a blacksmith shop at Yoeumtown, three miles from Newberrytown. Before the blacksmith closed his shop that night he was annoyed to find that a steel chisel was missing from among his tools. That night the safe in the postoffice was blown open with dynamite and was rifled of its contents.

On the floor of the office was the chisel the blacksmith had missed that day. Incidentally Shireman was not seen in the vicinity again for several weeks. Among the articles stolen from the safe that night were several rare and valuable coins. Suspecting that Shireman might know something of the robbery, the officers finally raided his room at 1022 Market street and among other things found some of the coins that had been stolen from the postoffice at Newberrytown nearly a month before. Phillip, so far as the evidence showed, knew nothing of the burglary and he was released.

The iteelf is of short duration but the patient is fortunate if he fully recovers his strength and health until weeks and sometimes years have passed. This is because the grip leaves the blood thin, the digestion impaired and the nerves weak With the blood thin and impure the body is left without its only means of regaining its strength, and health cannot be hoped for until the blood has been built up and purified.

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are especially adapted to meet this demand as they. quickly and thoroughly build up the blood. Miss Estelle Daugherty, who is employed at the Maryland Club, Baltimore, says: "About four years ago I had a severe attack of the grip, which left me a nervous wreck. My blood was much impoverished and did not regain In strength.

Everything that I ate distressed me and caused gas on my stomach. I was extremely nervous, could not sleep and suffered from severe pains across my back. "I was sick for two years but would not give up although I could bardly drag around. tried several kinds of medicine and was treated by a physician but nothing helped me. I read about Dr.

Williams' Pink Pills in a paper and tried them. I received so much benefit from the first two boxes of the pills that I gave them a thorough trial and was cured. The pills gave me a new appetite and built me up until I was strong and well." If you have failed to get more than temporary relief from your suffering, the treatment is most likely not a blood builder. Do not neglect then to remove the cause of your trouble but give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a good trial.

For such diseases of the blood as rheumatism, lumbago, chlorosis, after of fevers and general debility, there is no more direct or certain cure than Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box: six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company.
