Far answer, Ntt'. Merrick pointed to
a small fireplace behind the sate, near
which a large screen was standing.
"Strange!" exclaimed the attorney.
"I. never noticed that before, much as
I have been here,"
"It escaped my observation for, some
time," replied the other. "1 searched
the fireplace. in the lihrary, but this
grate is very stns ll and was concealed
by that large screen, as well as by the
safe. Evidently, it was seldom used,
stud was selected for that reason by
whoever destroyed the will, as more
likely to escape notice." ,
"Rather a bungling piece of work,"
commented the attorney, "leaving these
partiarily burned scraps. I wonder that
he or she, whoever it was, did not make
sure that they were esti consum-
ed,"
""rhe person may have heard some

ON FACE AND BODY.
Boils and pimples are simply evidences
of bad blond that is circulating in the
system coating t,o the surface.
The only way to rid yourself of these
painful and unsightly blood diseases
is to have your blood purified by Burdock
Blood Bitters. It removes every par-
ticle of foul material from the blood, and
the skin becomes clear and smooth, and
free from all eruptions.
Mr, Roy A. Bovay, Trenton, Ont.,
writes: -"Two years ago I wait very
much troubled with boils and pimples
on ray face and body. A friend advised
me to take Burdock Blood. Bitters. 1
got three bottles, and before 1 had
finished the third one, my boils and
pimples had all disappeared, and my
face and body were as clear and as
smooth as any baby's could be."
Burdock Blood Bitters has been on the
market Inc over 40 years. You are not
experimenting when you buy it.
