is to digest all the food you eat.
When the stomach can't do 1t Kodol
does it for it and in the meantime the
stomach is getting stronger and able
to take up its regular natural work
again. Kodol digests all you eat. 1t

ARC LIGHT ON TOP.


HERMGToN, Aug. 2S.--The work OF
the new Herlngton water tower Il
nearing completion. The iron work
ers from Chicago have not finished
their work on the job, neverthe'
less nothing is left to do but finish
the cover on the tank. At present
the iron workers are riveting the col
umns together and the hot ones
meaning red hot rivets, are flying
thick and fast. The height Of the
tower now is 1906 feet, with l6 feet
and top to be constructed.
The tower looms up above every
thing ever built in Harrington and
railroad men say the tank Of the tower
can be seen for many miles. When
the tower is finished an arc light will
be placed on the top. which will un-
donbtedly be seen from all the sur
rounding towns. So far no serious
accidents have occurred during the
building Of the huge pipe. Consider
ing the fact that the wind has been so
violent the last week or so, this Is
lucky note. The foreman Of the
builders was almost thrown off the
top by loosening of the ropes not
long ago, but he escaped with
sprained arm. Several Of the helpers
are ,Herington men and although they
have never done such dizzy work be-
fore, they are skipping on the girders
as any Of the professionals.
