In an arc if 700 feet, anil the 50,000,
000 pieces f stone which form Its
walls hear .every evidence of having
been quarried and carefully cut. All
that i Ian own now is that the com

In tlie inner court revealed an ainaz

and variously walled spaces.
The doors and ceilings were con

Ing timbers across from wall to wall.
Upon these were laid smaller logs,
placed closely side by side; over these

Shame on Them.
pERHAPS thero are a few mothers who do not know the virtues of Fletcher's
Castoria. Perhaps there are a few who know that there are imitations on
the market, and knowing this demand Fletcher's. It is to ALL motherhood, then,
that we call attention to the numerous imitations and counterfeits that may be
set before thorn.
It is to all motherhood everywhere that we ring out the warning to bewaro
of the "Jnst-as-good". For over thirty years Fletcher's Castoria has been an aid
in the upbuilding of our population; an aid in the saving of babies.
And yet there are those who would ask you to try something new. Try
this. Try that. Even try the same remedy for the tiny, scarcely breathing, babe
that .you in all your robust womanhood would use for yourself. Shame on them.

hunting with very little knowledge of
(lie residential districts of Philadel-
pl .She found an apartment and
rented It because there were two Union

that the street was all light. One of

ami the other to an Italian peanut
