A young married woman, while walking along Queen street, Levin, was accosted by a man, who grahherl hold of her handbag. A struggle look place, fluring which the woman fell to the footpath, her assailant making off without the bag. A youth who heard the calls for assistance chased the man, who disappeared into a right-of-way behind the shops. Flogged round the fleet, to live or die. Was sailor-luck in days gone by. Keel-hauling, too, from side to side. Proved deadly in n freezing tide. Flogged round the fleet, lutlf-nudc and blue, Disposed to wlmt we now call “’flu,’ Raw “ration-rum” restored life's zest, Now, Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure proves best.
