SEEN NEAR HOME OF QUERNHEIMS — Elmer Burklin at Inquest Says Prisoner Was at Gate About Time of Murder.

WOMAN ALMOST SURE TOO Bergmann’s “Pal” Picked Out Quickly From Room Full of Witnesses.

GRAY SUIT STORY FITS ee em ee Inquest Goes Over Until Tues- -day.to Give Time for Investigation. ow oe a The Coroner's investigation of the murder of Mrs. Kate Quernheim took a @ramatic turn Monday morning when El- mer Burklin, a High School boy, posi- tively identified Harry Muessemeyer as the man he had seen acting suspiciously in front of the Quernheim house the afternoon the crime was committed. You Burklin said he was standing in fron of his home, 3730% Vest avenue, Thursday afternoon about 4:45 o'clock, when he saw a man approaching. The man’s actions, he says, were suspicious. The man he saw came as far as the uernheim gate, stopped, looked up and own the street as though he half in- tended to enter, and then turned and mer ed away. The man was dressed in ray suit, with a soft hat. “The night I read in the Post-Dispatch about the murder,’ the witness contin- ued, “I saw the picture of Muessemeyer, whom they: aerated in the morning, The picture looked like the man I had seen. At this point Dr. Lloyd, who is con- ducting the investigation, ordered young Burklin taken into the witn®ss room. “See if among those people in the wit- ness room you can identify the man you saw in front of the Quernheim home rected. afternoon,’ Dr. Lloyd di- rect Identifies Muessemeyer.

Loaded Hay. Wagon Dashing Through Downtown Street Without Driver.

A crowd of indignant § storekeepers Slashed police red tape that placed a courageous man’s life in jeopardy, when they dragged the driver of a patrol wagon from his seat Monday and threatened him with instant punishment unless he conveyed Frank wouth to the City Dispensary without delay. The excited crowd had just witnessed Louth’s thrilling attempt -to check -a runaway team of heavy draft horses hauling a ponderous stake wagon. Their wilt course was directly eastward on Chestnut street, toward the heart of the business district. While approaching Frank D. McDon- ald’s- blacksmith shop, 1417 Chestnut street, Louth, an athletic horse shoer, spyang from the place and dashing upon the careering team, hung by the bridle at the head of the near horse. His swinging weight arrested the speed of the animals, but did not stop the flaht. Tecuth dangled like a pendulum, tossed about by the rush of the run- aways. At Chestnut and Fourteenth streets the steel-clad hoof of his horse struck him in the abdomen, knocking him from his bold. He fell beneath the hoofs and was trampled before the wheels of the hay- lade n vehicle passed over him. The inan’s daring battle to prevent danger to ethers had been cheered by the great throny pressing after the spectacular ‘chase. The instant Louth dropped into th: street the runaways were forgotten and =the people formed a dense wall about the injured man. Patrol Wagon Stopped. A call for an ambulance was sent to the Dispensary. Hardly had this been done when a_ police patrol wagon dashed by. Cries to the driver caused him to,rein up his team. Repeated cries went up to take Louth to med- ical assistance. The driver refused. He said that it was against police regulations. Those persons who were ministering to the stricken horse shoer realized that his condition was precarious. They de- manded that the patrol driver carry the patient to the Dispensary. The driver refused again. Then some of the boldest of the crowd dragged him from fis seat and shaking their fists in his face, threatened him with harm unless he complied at once. Willing hands helped to place Louth in the city vehicle and several seated themselves in the wagon to accom- are all young fellows, of their time in idleness and ‘“‘beer can- brother old, of acid.

/ Twenty-two robberies on six blocks within six months is the record shown by investigation of the charges against Tony Foley of 1029 North Eighteenth Street, whose case was ca.ed for trial in the Criminal Court Monday. The “Bottoms Gang’ is believed to have committed all the robberies. Foley is charged with assaulting Po- liceman Stapléten of the Dayton Street: Station, taking his revolver away from him and shootine at him three times. The attack on the policeman revealed the numerous robberies. Tnese, 4nclud- ing burglaries and highway robberies, have occurred on Franklin avenue, be- tween Twenty-second street and Jeffer- Son avenue, but a short distance from the Dayton Street Police Station. Several weeks ago Foley had his en- counter with Patliceman Stapleton at Twenty-second and Franklin avenue. During the fight Foley wrested the policeman’s revoiver away from him and broke and ran away. He turned and fired three shots at the policeman. He was subsequéntly arrested and charged in an information with assault to kili. In order to prosecute the case success- fully, the Circuit Attorney's office sent & private detective to the Franklin av- enue neighborhood to make inquiries into the record of Foley. Incidentally the detective discovered that the Franklin nue merchants haye been terrorize Bd thieves leagued in the “Bottomg Gang.’ Stores have been robbed under the very eyes of the proprietors, and in a number of in- Stances members of the gang have turned upon the merchants and beaten them mercilessly.

Chairman Lee of Democratic Advisory Board Describes Slate-Making Troubles. * SOUTH SIDE MEN SCARCE

Everyone Wanted Refused to Serve and Tried to Find Substitute.

FOUR FROM ONE WARD

Lee Explains, However, How They Really Represent All Parts of City.

John F. Lee of 3680 Lindell boute- vard, member of the legal firm of A. and J. F. Lee and president of the St. Louis Bar Association, described in an interview with a Post-Dispatch re- porter Monday the process yy which the ‘slate’ of City Council eandidates, prepared for the Democratic conven- tion in session today, wor formed. Mr. Lee was chairman of the advisory committee of seven which selected the ticket. The comn.ittee’s most difficult task, Mr. Lee said, and one which it did not find possible to perform wholly to its own satisfaction, was the selection of candidates from South St. Louis. It was due to this difficulty that four of the six selections were residents of the Twenty-eighith Ward, the seat of the finest West End homes. ‘ The Council slate as chosen by the advisory committee is: cent avenue, Thirteenth Ward. Albert Bond Lambert, 2 place, Twenty-eighth Ward. John J. O’Brien, 5229 Maple avenue, Twenty-eighth Ward. ; Frank P. Crunden, 4426 Westminster place, Twenty-eighth Ward. William H. Hauschulte, 1109% Pen- rose street, First Ward. 5337 Cabanne ave- Ward. Saunders Norvell, nue, Twenty-eighth Arthur J. Fitzsimmons is the only member of the ticket residing on the South Side. Mr. Lee said, however, that the committee considered Frank Ff Crunden also a South Side candi- date hy reason of his long residence In that section. Mr. Crunden lived 15 years in the Lafayette Park neighbor- hood and two ‘years in Carondelet. Work Hard, Pay Small. “Tt realize,’ said Mr. Lee, “that it will be asked why the committee did not se- lect at least one man of a German family to represent the South Side. To such a auestion I can reply that the Hortense man, but in vain. greatly desired to place William F. Woerner, former city counselor, on the ticket. Mr. Woerner considered the matter for a few days, then sent a positive refusal. “We then asked John Schroers to help us select a candidate. He became active in the matter, and called up a number of men whom he regarded as suitable representatives of the German Demo- erats of South St. Louis. None would consent to serve. * then called up Mr. “Mr. Schroers Woerner, and said: ‘You must either run yourself or find us a man. Mr. Woerner, as he afterward expressed it, obtain such a The commiitee ew took the matter under consider- re sea but ay soon refused. The work involved in a Council position was too heavy and the pay too small to attract anv of the men to whom he appealed. “We asked Fred W. Lehmann to help us. He is president of the Union Club, to which the leading South Side German families belong. He made several ex- cellent suggestions, and aided the com- mittee by interviewing same of the lead- ing mey of the Union Club, but he had no better suecess than the others had had. “Among those who refused to allow their names to be considered were the Messrs. Gildehaus of Hawthorne boule- vard, the Messrs. Dieckriede of Long- fellow boulevard, Ferdinand C. Meyer of 2009 Allen avenue, and William Druhe, publisher of the Amerika. Hausckulte for North End. “As to North St. Louis, we feel that we succeeded in representing it on the ticket in a manner which will fully sat- isfy the voters of that section. Mr. Hauschulte is a resident of the North End and a man of high standing there. Mr. O'Brien, though at present a resi- dent of the West End, is known throughout North St. Louis, where he lived for many years and where his business interests now are. He is essen- tially a North St. Louis man. and we iw'tove he will be so recognized. “Saunders Norvell and Albert Bond lambert remain as the representatives of the West End on the ticket, which is thus practically composed of an equal representation from each of the three sections of the city. Not n- One-Man Ticket. “No part of the ticket represents the selection of any one man. The commit- a ea Rey pain tieneenerrern-naiinne ine? 7

Reginald Loiseau, known as Rex Mc+ Donald, at 20 North Eleventh street, on the night of March 2, is said to be one of the “Bottoms gang.’’ Eddie Carroll, who. participated in the robbery of the]: flour mill at 7800-—Nerth- Broadway, sev- eral months ago, during which a man was shot, ig also suspected of being a member of the ‘“‘Bottoms gang.’’ Joe La- kin and Edward Regan, who were mem- bers of the Jolly Five Club, and also of ‘the gang, pleaded guilty a few weeks ago to robbing Mat Jovanic’s saloon at 2201 Franklin avenue. Jovanic’s saloon was robbed three times, once in Octo- ber, again in December and the last time in January. Devine, Lakin and Regan are wit- nesses to the killing of ‘‘Tim’’ Foley by Clyde Casey, Dec. 22 last. Foley, while trying to break into the news stand con- ducted by Casey, was shot and killed. Devine, Lakin and Regan were arrested by the police, and while they were be- ing driven in a patrol wagon to the po- lice station they made repeated at- tempts to assault Casey. Lieut. Tom Walsh, who was in com- mand of the police squad that investi- gated the killing, had his hands full trving to protect Casey. These boys are among the most des- perate members of the ‘Bottoms gang,’ and are much feared by the merchants on Franklin avenue. They have been charged with several robberies, but each time have managed to escape. Beverly Brown, another member of the Jolly Five Club, was arrested by the police of the Carr Street District, Saturday night, for creating a disturbance at a Democratic primary polling place. Some of the stores have been robbed several times. The boldness with which the crimes have been perpetrated has amazed some of the merchants. N. Yampolsky, who conducts a fur- nishings store at 2211 Franklin avenue, told the Circuit Attorney’s that his store has been robbed three times by members of the ‘Bottoms gang’ within the past few months. Once he caught one of the robbers in the act. He attempted to capture the burglar, but after a desperate fight the man broke away. As he dashed out of the store he grabbed a bundle of.shirts and got away with them. Violin Broken on Him. Robert C. Bowman of 2135 Wash street had an experience with the ‘“‘Bottoms gang’’ that he will not soon forget. An attempt was made to rob him. Bowman thought it would be more ionorable to tight the gang, especially as his wife was looking on and screaming. He un- dertook to “clean up” the gang, and had a violin smashed over his head. After Bowman .was knocked down, one of he gang kicked him in the mouth. Pavo Plisic of 22046 Franklin avenue, who says that his place has been twice robbed by the gang, caught some of the burglars in the act. They were ar- rested and taken to the Four Courts, but his witnesses, according to the Cir-- cuit Attorney's detecttve’s report, were frightened by threats made by other members of the gang. One of the wit- nesses is said to have been driven out of the city. Members of the gang are said to “hang out’? on the corner of Twenty- second street and Franklin avenue. It was while trying to disperse one of these street corner crowds that Police- man Stapleton was attacked. Some of the merchants who have pro- tested against the depredations of the gang have been threatened. They told the Cireuit Attorney’s detective that they had been frequently forced to take refuge in their own stores when they went outside to remonstrate with mem- bers of the gang who had congregated in front of their places of business. B. Stein of 2222 Franklin avenue is the circulator of the petition requesting the Cireuit Attorney's office to make a through investigation of conditions in the ‘‘Bottoms.”’ that the gang may be broken up. DEATH RESTORES SONS. Mother to Have Children Sent Away by Stepfather, Death, which parted an Ohio mother and her two young sons, will re- united them. Frederick and Charles Simmons, aged 11 and 13 respectively, were at Union Station Monday morn- ing en route to Cincinnati and travel- ing alone. They had made the jour- ney from Tacoma, Wash., and were anxious to begin the trip east from Si. Louis. 7 Four years ago thelr father, Charles Simmons, an expert electrician, died. He left his little family in fairly good circumstances. but the mother loaned a part of her insurance money to a Aa ey who was in business and who failed. “A little more than a year after my father died my mother married Mr. McConnell.” said Charles to a Post- Dispatch reporter, “and the very first week he was in the house he told her she would have to send us away or he would leave. 80 we were sent to my uncle, Bimmons, who lives in Tacoma, and we have been there ever since. “A month ago my new father died and mamma wrote to uncle to send us home. Now we are going back to see her, and I hope that she won't get married again, for we will soon be big enough to take care of her.”

“That's whet we will,” said Freddy, as the two ys started for the In- formation Bureau te find out what time their traiffi would ieave. tig 4 ; oe 2 a Gas Si we OS oh SS. ees Rad ha Ror ae 2 SRS CORN EEN TRS ee RE Bt AES OS RSTEO IES die tint ee es, spit a a detective | ‘ tate .

Chairman Knapp of the Interstate Commetce Commission was asked re- garding the announcement made in New York by Special “Counsel Kellogg, that the commission had completed its in- vestigation of the Harriman system. Mr. Knapp said the commission would not take any further testimony, as it now has ample evidence for its purposes. He said the question is still open as to whether the commission should apply to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for an order for Harriman to show cause why he should not answer the questions propounded by the commission regarding the acquisition by the Harriman sys- tem of the Illinois Central. Chairman Knapp said that, at the re- quest of -Mr.,Evarts, Harriman’s at- torney, April 4 has been set apart to hear arguments on whether the Union Pacific railroads are parallel lines. If this question is decided in the affirm- ative the Government will bring suit for the dissolution of the Harriman merger. When Mr. rriman’s counsel asked for the hearing on April 4 it was un- derstood by the commission that if Mr. Harriman’s counsel, or the Senate. de- sired to submit additional testimony on that date, they might do so. Chairman Knapp said today that if Mr. Harriman degired to take the stand he would be permitted to do so.

League games played at Handlan’s Park Sunday afternoon, in which the North Ends defeated the Pabsts, 3 to 0, and the Innisfails and Hibernians tied, 1 to i, the Innisfails lead the League with 27 points, while the North Ends have 26. The final game of the League sea- son will be played next Sunday. The Innisfails and North Ends will clash, and if the North Ends win, it will give to that team the championship of the League, in spite of the fact that the Innisfails have been leading all during the season. The St. Leos fast socker team added another victory to its list by defeating the picked team from the St. Louis Football Association at Kulage Park yesterday afternoon by a score of 2 to 0). The St. Leos team won the cham- pionship of the association. Phil Kav- anaugh captained the picked team. The St. Leos scord one goal in each half by fast playing. Dooling, goal keeper for the picked team, did some excel- lent work, while the team work of the down to weight and arming up well, and Bobby Wallace is in great condition and looks like he would be the .premier shortstop of the league without a doubt. In fact, all the old men are doing great work, and there will be no kick on the piayine of any of them when they get back.

George W. Perkins has returned to the New York Life Insurance Co. the $48,500 which he contributed to the Republican national campaign fund in the Roosevelt campaign of }904. Mr. Perkins seems to have drawn against his private account. That he should lose it eventually is incredible. Doubtless, President Roosevelt will in turn reimburse Mr. Perkins. He is the first beneficiary in line. But that Mr. Roosevelt should care eventually to lose it is as incredible as it is unfair that he should. Who, then, will write the third check? Under ordinary circumstances it would -be easy to suppose that this would be done by some one of the trusts dependent upon the party and its protective tariff for prosperity... But Mr. Roosevelt. and the trusts are, at least to some ex- tent, estranged—possibly far enough to make the one as unwilling to receive as the other is to give.

The humor is excited when the chief chemist of the Agricultural Department at Wash- ington announces that every sawdust pile around the mills which are now wiping out what is left of American forests, is full of material for first-class whisky, capable of having a bead put on it equal to anything from the cornfields of Bourbon County. It is not a joke, however, or at least not in the scientific sense, It is now a good hundred years since the poet, Goethe, saw the scientific possibili- ties of sawdust for such purposes and also the point of the possible joke. When the science he saw com- ing bores its gimlet hole in the wood of the table and asks the bystanders to name their favorite beverages, the wood of the table is scientifically eapable of giving them everything they want, from Rhine wine to Kentucky bourbon.

As we have pointed out heretofore, any game law without this stringent provision is not worth the paper upon which it is written, To permit the sale of game in wny wise at all gives the ingenious violator a loophdle which he is adroit to enlarge. The prime object of any game law in Missouri is to protect game.

As played by David Proctor, he is the ‘“‘mushiest"’ political Scrapper that ever came down the pike. It’s a triumph for Col.

It is apparent that David roctor is miscast in this part. He's a handsome, polished, university-tagged young chap, excellently fitted for juve- nile society roles—but as a hard-fight- ing politician, aggressively equipped to Oppose and overthrow a corrupt munitci- pal machine and its formidable head— never in a thoueand years. Not at any moment is Mr. Proctor convincing in wherein the scenes of ‘‘The of the last curtain. blood-kinship. instinctive Excepting his work, not a strong presen- success of but has enjoyable “college foot- comedy of “frenzied of Mr. Proctor’s playing becomes prac- tically ridiculous as a consequence. Yet it’s precisely in these scenes—and there are several of them in the play— that a District Attorney of masculine temper could make a tremendous hit with his audiences. With two genuine fighters, a young reformer and an old machine boss pitted against one anoth- er, “The Powers That Be’? would be- come an absorbingly interesting play. It even now has the necessary hard-fighter in the Boss Buntz of Mr. Holt’s por- trayal—a lifelike presentation of the un- crowned king of misgoverned American municipalities—but the Burton Clarke of Mr. Proctor will mever, never do. And to just that extent, “The Powers That Be’ fails of making the hit to which it !s entitled.

Nesta de Decker meets the light requirements of the ingenue role of Jessie Melville. As Aunt Sally, an old Southern “Mammy,” Caroline Newcome is fairly good.

s MONDAY—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATOH

NEWS OF THE DAY

ories of the bargain hunting pro- clivities of Mr. Henry Lackland are rife. You see Mr. Lackland was placed in that rather awkward position of being obliged to do all his wedding shopping by himself. The bride, Miss Elise von Ende, way over in Dresden, could only advise by mail af long intervals, and in the meantime there were wondrous bar- gains in household goods—‘‘we furnish your home complete, at a nominal cost’ —that filled the papers every day and caught the eye of the bridegroom-elect. To be sure he contemplated taking the Paramore house furnished. But he doesn't expect to remain there more than six months and so household goods of his own must perforce be purchased and set up in due time. Mr. Lackland Studied the advertisements almost to the exclusion of his three meals per day and jndulged in quiet little expeditions to the shops whenever he could snatch 2. minute from his arduous business du- es. One evening at dinner his mother,

Mrs. E. C. Lackland, thought it expedl- ent to expostulate. “Henry.” said she, ‘‘why wait until Elise comes and then buy your goods and chattels? You don't know a thing in the world about furni- ture and house fittings. You will get cheated and imposed on, as sure as fate. “Besides, you've already bought and sent home here more stuff than would fill three houses.”’ Mr. Lackland listened dutifully. Then he said: ‘‘Perhaps you're right, mother, but say, I want you to see a pair of curtains I got today, and if you don't think -they’re Jim dandies I miss out.” And the enthusiastic shopper dragged out a large fiat bundle and proceeded to display its contents. “Real bargain, mother,” said he, as he spread out two pairs of elegant em- broidered heavy lace window hangings, with the hall marks of French importa- tion all over them and‘a richness and finish that instantly proclaimed them suitable for anybody’s best palace. Mrs. Lackland opened her eyes. ‘Reautiful! Perfectly beautiful, son, 1 don't you but what extravagance! ‘Really, Henry, you worry me to death. Such elegance and the price you must have paid for it isn’t suitable for young people. a “I don’t believe in it. Your father ana I didn’t begin that way. Ifs ridiculous: And what's more, you cant possibly at- ford it. No young man just starting out in life can’ do so. I'm surprised &§ well as seriously displeased with Maker said the good lady indignantly, wh 4 her eyes dwelt lovingly on the rich an handsome curtains. * “Why, Henry,” she went on, those curtains cost every cent of $4 4 et and I’m sure they were a bargain 4 that.’’ ; Mr. Lackland smiled into his mother § disapproving eyes. ‘‘Guess again, mut- terchen,” he said. ‘“‘But, no, you'll nev “3 hit it right in a thousand yéars. I ord those four curtains at a sale and pa just $10-for the whole bunch.” The Children’s Hospital, which 1s to indulge in a benefit for itself next week when Lhevinne plays twice at the Ode- on, i8 growing so fast that more nurses, particularly a head nurse, be- sides the already installed and _ efficient matron, are badly needed. Which is the reason for these concerts. Mrs. Mary McKittrick has been pres- ident of this -hospital and deeply in- terested in it for no less a period than 25 vears. “And her enthusiasm cern about its workings cess are just as keen now as they were when the yospital first opened, said Mrs. Louls Marion McCall, the second vice-president. “Il do not know how we could pos- sibly continue the work of this char- ity without her encouragement and ac- tive participation in every move of progress which we make. and vital con- and its suc-

Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Bie binger, who have been at the Hamil- ton all winter, deeming town more con- venient for the wedding preparations, will get themselves out of their coun- try place at Ferguson as fast 4s they can go. | This country spirit prevails in all branches of this family. They all have country homes and live there, not just tarry for a few months and then make haste to get back into the city’s noise and hurry. Way down on the old Gravois road is another Biebinger country home, a genuine landmark in that section of the South Side. The Luédekings have a fine suburban place also south of Mill Creek Val- ley. Mrs. Robert Luedeking and Mrs. Oscar Biebinger are sisters. Prints of old Japan, and rare ones, too, are to interest the art lovers this week. Monday afternoon, Mrs. Everett Pattison explained these val- uable art works at the Hamilton Hotel, with the Art Committee of tlre Federated Clubs as her sponsors. Wednesday morning they are to be shown again at the Artist Guild rooms in the Dolph Building. The Twentieth Century Art Club members are to be hostesses on this occasion, and they are planning to lend a little festivity to the event by serving URETeOD directly after the prints have beén viewed. “All husbands of the Twentieth Century have been requested to report for duty on Tuesday night,’ declared amember. “We are going to have @ sandwich spreading match at one of the officer’s home, and the men must do their part by cutting bread and spreading on the butter. Oh, yes, in- deed, even hushands may be made quite useful in such directions, occa- sionally.”’ LUCY HOSMER STOUGHTON. Personal Mention News from Palm Beach mentions 4 recent house boat party in which sev- eral St.-Louisans participated. Among them’ were Mrs. Edward Rae and Miss Olive Rae and Mr. and Mrs. P. J. Mc- Intosh. Mr. J C. Salter of New York was the host, taking. his guests to a certain island down the coast, which is a famous retreat for picknickers.. It is described as a genuine fairyland bower with tropical plants, the mystic Florida moss everywhere and sweet voiced singing birds in the old moss covered trees. An* exploration of the island was followed by luncheon on board the houseboat and then the party speyt the entire afternoon lazily sailing back to the Poinciana basin. Mr. and wars. William Dee Becker are receiving congratulations on the birth of a son. . Mr.‘and Mrs. Pierre Chouteau Scott are also the recipients of congratula- tions, a daughter having been born Saturday. She has been named Marie Louise. Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Cook have reached Guanajuato, Mexico, en tour, and are finding their stay in this quaint old city very profitably inter- esting. Mrs. George Walton Flershim reached home from a California visit Friday evening. Mrs. Frank Kauffman, Mrs. Dorsey Jamison and Mrs. Calvin Lightner are concerning themselves just now with arrangements for an entertainment to occur March 26 that shall benefit the Emily Dunham Memorial Cettage at Baptist Oorphans’ Home. This will be both an afternoon and evening affair, and will savor of the reception with music programs and some other features to be arranged later. It will be given at the residence of Mrs. Kauffman in Waterman ave- nue. Mr. ®nd Mrs. Archer Anderson have cards of nvitation out for a ‘‘500’’ party at their residence, 4953 Washington boulevard, Saturday evening, March 16. ~ Mrs. Daniel Nugent and Miss Louise Nugent will return the last of the week from San Antonio, where they have beer visiting Capt. and Mrs. Baker at Fort Sam Houston.

Perfect Womanhood The greatest menace to woman's permanent happiness in life is the suffering that comes from disorders of the feminine organs. Many thousands of women have realized this too late to save their health, barely in time to save their lives, To be a successful wife, to retain the love and admiration of her hus- band, should be a woman’s constant study. . If a wontan finds that her ener- gies are flagging, that she gets easily tired, dark shadows appear under her eyes, she has backache, headache, nervousness, or the “blues,” she should start at once to build up her system by a tonie with specific powers, such as 3
