Miss Lillio Lewis of Spokane is of a romantic disposition and she planned and lieli>ed to execute her own abduc tion.

Her brother attempted to rescue her and was knocked down by a rock. The police force searched all night for the abductors and the girl, but could not find them. The next day the love sick maiden returned home for her clothing and confessed that she planned the al unction and that she was going to marry one of the men. Pills Do Not Cure.
