APPENDICITIS.
Some Facts Regarding ITS Rapid In
crease.

Appendicitis among Americans is
certainly increasing and while this is
probably due to the excitement and
worry of American business life, it is
more often directly traceable to con-
stipation. Appendicitis is caused by
extraneous matter entering the vermi-
form appendix and not byt the swallow
ing of seeds. If the digestive organs
are kept in perfect condition so the
food is duly assimulated and the bow
els move gently, at least once a day,
appendicitis will never develop. Don
take chances. Regular doses of DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin before meals
will strengthen the organs of diges-
ton, your appetite will be good, con-
stipation disappears and you feel bet
ter in every way. DR.. Caldwell's Syr-
up Pepsin does not relax the bowels
by irritation, but by curing indiges-
ton, the cause of constipation. Chas.

ran, Kans., sell it in SOC and $l.OO

MUD is FOREVER POLLING.
MurISy Springs OF Yellowstone ParL
That spout Hot Fluid without
CeasinR.


Among the wonders of the Yellow
stone national park none eXcites more
interest than what are known as "the
paint pots" or boiling mud springs
into one of these caldrons two wom
en- tourists recently fell and were seri.
ously scalded. There are several
groups of these springs in the parks,
one of the largest Of which occupies
a space 800 yards in length by 25 in
width, in what is knot1h as the valley
of Alum creek, near the Crater hills,
A second group where it is believed
the tourists were scalded, is near the
wall of the grand canyon of the yell
lowstone, four miles below Yellow.
stone lake and six miles from the
Crater hills. This group occupies
space three acres in extent and it is
said the springs present magnificent
sight when in the course of eruption
says the Chicago Chronicle.
The principal spring is called the
Blue Mud Pot and is 35 feet in di-
ameter. It is near the large sulphur
spring, and when in tranquil state
looks like a lake of blue mud. The
contents of the spring are more like
muddy water than thick mud, although
at times the mud has a consistency
of mortar. In some portions of the
spring various degrees of consistency
are found, ranging from the muddy
water state to a thickness of common
mortar.
There are no particular times of
eruptions from these springs, and al.
though they are in groups or are very
close together, not more than two feet
separating some of them, there seems
to be no connection between them,
and they are of different colors. Nari-
Gus shades Of brown, red, pink, blue,
lavender and gray are to be found,
and when all of them are spouting
together the kaleidoscope coloring
makes beautiful picture. The
streams thrown from the craters OF
the springs sometimes mount as high
as 40 feet, and in falling form an edge
around the turbid lake that causes the
resemblance to paint pots, from which
the springs take their names. In the
valley of the Alum creek. where the
Blue Mud pot is found, tourists OBJ
serve puffs of mud rising from the
surface for over 300 yards.
The second group of springs pre-
sents every possible variation of color
There are, perhaps, hundreds of the
smaller springs, all OF them having
the raised edges, which are covered
with the vari-colored mud. This muC
has temperature of over $50 degrees
and seems to be boiling at all times
The springs at this point greatly re
semble caldrons of paint, and are pink
blue, lavender and pure white in color
In these smaller springs there il
generally a circular pit about ten fee
deep, completely covered on the out
side with the colored mud. This mud
when dried and burned. whether will
fire or by the sun, makes the fines
quality of plaster. Biologists CLAIM
that after being properly worked NJ
il would make better mortar or plas
ter than anything now used for TIL
purpose. When the white mud j
burned IL takes a form very mucI
like that Of finished meerschaum, an,
Is quite as pliable and lasting. TIL
mud contains a great deal of sulphu
and tastes strongly of alum. Tn

Reunion October ! to A

The Executive Committee of the Old
Soldiers Gas Belt Reunion Associa-
tion held a meeting Saturday night at
which time the committe on Finances
reported and their report was so prom
ising that without further delay it was
decided to hold the reunion this fall
and October l to inclusive was select
ed as the date. The Printing committee
is arranging to secure fine Autographs
and hand bills and the event will be
widely advertised. Old soldiers and
sailors, young soldiers and sailors in
Allen and adjoining counties will be
invited and the reunion will be made a
success If possible. Fine grounds are
available at Riverside Park, where
abundant city water and plenty shade,
to say pothing of natural gas in every
tent for cooking, make an ideal camp
ing ground. All these will be free and
the band will probably be secured to
furnish music, speakers engaged and
the reunion placed upon basis of re-
pute and financial soundness.

Valuable Horse Killed.

On account of injuries sustained oy
falling among railroad ties on East
street last week Cliff McCarley had to
kill his $500 pacing horse which he re-
Gently bought.
The accident is not hard to account
for. Issac McCloud, who lives just
east of ltown, :was here Friday and
again threw his shoulder out of place
at the same joint injured some weeks
ago. The McCarley boys attended to
the resetting by DR.. Cox and then took
the old man home. Lutte McCarley
and Frank Book supported him be-
tween them in the McCarley buggy and
Alf McCarley drove McCloud's S wagon.
Shortly after passing the Missouri
Pacific crossing east OF town they were
met by the switch engine returning
from Nicholson's smelter. The track
is on the north side of the road and a
wire fence on the south side. The or
dinary width of road is cut in two by
the ties of the electric line, leaving
but narrow passage way. The Me-
Carley horse, "A spirited gray PAGER,
frightened at the sudden appearance
of the steaming locomotive, swung
about, upsetting the buggy and throw
ing the three out and fell among the
ties. Examination later showed that
his front leg was broken in two places
and after consultation the animal
was shot. He was handsome, gray,
racer, which Cliff McCarley bought
about six weeks ago in Humboldt for
$500.
1t seems probable that suit for
damages will result as Mr., McCarley
has stated that he will hold somebody,
probably the electric railway people,
responsible for his loss. The buggy
was slightly damaged, but luckily
none of the occupants sustained in
juries.
This accident is but the beginning
of series of calamities which are
surely going to occur on East street
unless something is done, Thelroad
east of the crossing lies between the
main line and the switch. The road
itself is crossed by the electric line
about midway between the crossing
and the smelter and what with steam
cars and electric cars coming and GO
ing there is no chance for man tC
escape with a runaway horse. The
east Madison avenue road is a great
Improvement but at present is hard tt
reach, necessitating a roundabout
course. What is needed are several
more cross streets SO driver ma!
escape from one road to the othel
when he sees cars coming. For half 1
mile in theworst stretch no,cross road
now offers. There will be runaway
and deaths until that road is fixed.
