provide that the money shall be left in
another place today and all detectives bo
withdrawn. The police chief belle\cs
the kidnapers are acting In good faith and
Is withdrawing all detectives, carrying

PURE SUGAR
STICK
THE FICKLE WINDS OF MARCH
These sudden changes of weather
aro unpleasant to everyone and try- |
ing to many but they don't phase the
robust man and woman—not a bit.
As the keen north wind hits their I
faces it gets a response—tho glow of
warm, red blood surging within, in
perfect circulation. But how it does
hit home to those who are not in good
health—it chills, and chills, and worse
than chills, for it makes a drain upon
the vitality of the system.
Yet there is no mysterious ability
required to enable one not already
seriously sick, to gain and maintain
a robust state of health. The secret
lies simply in putting the stomach in
good order and maintaining it that
way. Common sense and good medi-
cine are all that is necessary.
