"For over fifteen years the Itching piles
have been a source of coastant annoyaice to
me, and frequently, too, the suffering has
become intense. At times there was bleed
ing and the itehiag and burning was beyond
endurance. The results I have derived from
Dr. Chase's Ointment have been magical and
the benefits lasting. I feel It a duty to fel
low sufferers to recommend it."
Rev. T. N. Van Natter, Methodist mini.

"My wife was terribly afflicted with pro
truding piles and contemplated a surgical
operation when her notice was drawn to Dr.
Chase's Ointment, and less than one bos
fleeted a cure."
"I then used It for an nasightly and
troublesome skin affection, which had battled
medical skill for twenty.five years. Dr.
Chase's Ointment thoroughly cured it. For
Eiles and skia disease it Is worth its weight
i gold."
Rer. J. A. Baldrrla, Baptist minister,
rVrkona, Ont,, writes
" For over twenty yes I was a great suf
ferer from Itching and protruding piles. I
ised many remedies and underwent three very
Mlnful surgical operations, atl without
tbtalning any permanent benefit. When
ibout to give up In despair I was told to use
Dr. Chase's Ointment and did so, finding
relief at once. I used three boxes, and am
entirely cured. The Itching is all gone. I
have advised others to use It, believing it
would cure them as it has me."

"Ten years ago eczema began on my ears

Friday night by Deputy Marshal Hoi
Ion nnd taken to New York Sunday
night, where ho will serve it, term of
two years and seven months on Gover
nor's Island, for deserting from Troop
L, Eighth cavalry, In Cuba last March.
Heernnn tells the following story: He
enlisted two years ago last March ut
Blnghamton with his two brothers and
was soon transferred to Cuba. Last
Mnrch ho and threo others deserted
and traveled 150 miles through the for
ests of Cuba, when two of his compan
ions were captured by the rural police,
when Reuben took to the woods and
made his escape. He was afterwards
caught In a small town and after two
months' Imprisonment In Moro castle,
Santiago, he and thirteen others were
sentenced to two years and seven
months in Fort Columbus, Governor'a
Island, N. Y. A few days before the
transport arrived to convey them
north, Heoman and a companion es
caped from the castle, changed their
clothes and went to work for the gov
ernment as teamsters at $40 per month.
Working six weeks and getting his
pay, he went to Havana, got a certifi
cate of good health under the name of
Prank Kaufman, sailed to New York,
arriving at Elmlra on Dec. 11, 1900.
The old longing for chickens took pos
session of him and with his youngest
brother, Fred, and two brothers named
Storms, they organized a poultry asso
ciation. The police took a hand and
arrested his brother Fred and tho two
brothers Storms, but Reuben again
made his escape. Friday, Erie Detect
ive Charles E. Grldley, of Waverly, ar
rested him at the Erie depot, Waverly,
on suspicion of the chicken deal of El
mlra, and telephoned to Officer Hollon,
who Immediately Intervnewed Mr.
Kaufman, who turned out to be the
much-sought-after Reuben Heeman.
He Immediately aeknowlplinxi Vita
Identity and the fact that he wob a
deserter. He stated that Cuba was a
nice country, that you could get or
anges, bananas, etc. an armful for
Ave cents, but mournfully exclaimed,
"Guy, I didn't nee a huckleberry while
I was there; they don't grow down
there like they do here.' Heeman has
served three years from this county foi
burglary and three years ago stole a
horse In Michigan, one In Ohio nnd two
wagons, and with a companion brought
them here, omcer Hollon found me
owners and Reuben settled with u two
nnd a half year term in Jackson, Mich.,
prison. His brother, Francis, who has
also deserted from Cuba.and once from
Port SlocUm, N. Y., and his brother,
Henry, who has deserted twice this
year by swimming the bay from Fort
Slocum, nre both now on Governor's
Island, awaiting the arrival of Reu
benFrancis, with a term of four
years staring him In tho face. His
brother, Fred, Is wanted hero for cat

It's an event well known to the people of this city and
surrounding country. It's an event waited for twice every
year. It's a Clearing Sale in every sense of the word.
What's left of our Men's Ready-to-Wear Suits and Over
coats placed on second floor must be cleared out before the
new Spring Goods arrive.
The Manager of
Our Children's Department
And his assistants have marked down prices on Boys' Suits
and Novelties. This morning everv Suit and Overcoat will
