"The Blood is The Life"

Science has never gone beyond the
above simple statement of scripture.
But il has illuminated that statement
and given it a meaning ever broadening
with the increasing breadth of knowl-
edge. When the blood is vbad or inn
pure it is not alone the body which
suffers through disease. The brain 10
also clouded, the mind and judgement
are effected, and many an evil deed or
impure thought may be directly traced
To the impurity OF the blood. Foul,
impure blood can be made pure by the

A LIBERAL OFFER
F. A. Snow, Druggist, Guarantees to
Cure Dyspepsia. If He Fails,
The Medicine Costs Nothing.

To enthusiastically prove to the peo-
pie of Topeka that, indigestion and
dyspepsia is durable and that RexaL
Dyspepsia Tablets will effect the cure,
we will furnish the medicine absolute
ly free if it fails to give complete
The remarkable success of Rexan
Dyspepsia Tablets is largely due to the
new and successful method of manu-
facture, whereby the well-known
properties of Bismuth, Subnitrate and
Pepsin have been combined with
carmfnatives and their agents.
Bismuth Subnitrate and Pepsin are
recognized by the entire medical pro-
feSsion as specifics for acute in
digestion and dyspepsia.
The Pepsin used in Rexan Dys-
pepsia Tablets is manufactured by a
new process which develops its great
est efficiency. Pepsin supplies to the
digestive apparatus one of the most
important elements of the digestive
fluid, and exerts a tonic influence
upon all the glands which supply all
the other elements necessary to proper
assimilation and digestion.
The carminatives add properties
which promptly relieve the disturb
ances and pain caused by undigested
food.
The perfect combination of these
ingredients make a remedy absolutely
Incompatible and invaluable for the
complete cure of indigestion and
dyspepsia
We are so positively certain of this
that we sell RexaIl Dyspepsia Tablets
on our own personal guarantee that
they will either cure you OF cost you

CORN STANDS IN FIELD UNCUT.
Hundreds of Acres of Fodder Not in
the Shock in Saline.

Salina, Nov. 9.-Driving over the
country ones attention is called to
the unusual amount of corn left
standing uncut in the fields. 1t is al
most impossible to look in any direc-
ton without seeing cornf1eld of
this kind.
One reason why this corn is not cut
is, because of the unusual big crop of
rough feed raised this year. 1t is said
by some optimistic farmers that hay
and alfalfa just grew up whether it
was planted or not 50 anxious was
Kansas to raise bumper crops.
1t is probable that this corn will
yet be cut down and fed. However,
the years are few when it is neglect
ed as a feed as it has been so far this
year.
Earlier in the season there were re-
ports to the effect that because of a
good feed crop much corn would re-
main uncut but many people smiled
and said that the feed would never
be passed up like that. The fact re-
mains that there are hundreds of
acres of fodder in Saline county as yet
uncut.

were more or less shocked by beauti-
full girls, scantily and dainty clad,
who, after pushing by the person who

the households, gave a splendid exhibit
ton of plain and fancy dancing, calcu-
lated to make the average vaudeville
artist green with envy. The dancers
departed as suddenly as they came, and
left the people speeches.. The girls
were of exclusive society families OF
the town.
Still another family gasped for
breath when a beautiful young woman
clad on1-- bathing costume such as is
calculated to make the folks on the
beach sit up and take notice, entered
the home, and, mounting a chair gave
a diving stunt, using a folded rug as
the pool. The family sat helpless until
the girl had disappeared, and then they
began to get busy over the telephone.
The Girls and their actions are town
talk People wanted to know what 1t
all meant, and the solution of the cleo
ton bets was not accepted, because
girls don't bet on election, not that
way.
1t finally leaked out through one of
the society women of the city that it
was all a part of the Initiation cere-
mony of the lambda Alpha lambda
sorority. The girls are all members Of
the best families in the city and well
known here and at schools.

TRAILEO IN DUST.
Banner of Blue Torn From

HOpelessly Outclassed in Satur.
days Football Contest.
HADNO CHANCE AT ALL
Line Unable to WithStandFierce
Onslaught of Jayhawkers.
Two TOuchdOwns Made in Each
:, Of the Halves.
HADNO CHANCE ATALL

BY being trampled in the dust in a
manner that has been altogether for
eign to a Washburn football team since
the days of the Greater Washburn.
Coach Bert Kennedy's stalwart foot
ball team wrested the football cham
pionship of Kansas from the Blue war
riers on McCook field at Lawrence last
Saturday afternoon by a score of % to
o. The doIeful event was witnessed by
5000 spectators, 600 of whom were from
Topeka, and who returned home Satur-
day night saddened in spirits and
dampened in their football ardor, but
content after witnessing the terrible
catastrophe, to allow the football
1aurels of Kansas, to repose on Mt
Dread for a whole year.
Kansas won the game in the first half
by making two touchdowns and kick
ing two goals from touchdowns, max
ing the score II to o. Twice DahIene,
who seems to be the premier kicker Of
the Kansas squad tried to annex goals
from placement, but each time his eff
forts were fooled and went wild.
1t was the same story in the second
half. The inebucking, which had
proved effective against Coach Weede's
proteges during the first half was again
resorted to and with new backfield
1t was easy for the Jayhawkers to add
another touchdown in the second half.
Still another was earned near the end
of the game, by the Jayhawkers dis
playing greater reserve energy, after
the Washburn team seemed to have
taken a decided brace.
To those who witnessed the Wash
burn-Drake game, the result of the
game Saturday will occasion no sur
prise when it is known that Kansas
has a team that is far superior to the
Drake team. 1t was the same old style
football that won for Kansas. The
Jayhawkers with their weight would
plough through the weak Washburn
line time and time again for substantial
gains, and the Washburn team was re-
peatedIy forced to punt in order 10
save the goal line.
1t was a grand day for football. The
sky was clear and the wind an absent
factor in the contest. At the start it
was a little warm for the players, but
as the sun gradually neared the west
ern horizon, the atmosphere became 4
little chilled, and was just right to
cause players to put their best into the
game.
And with such a brand of weather
there was nothing to keep the crowds
away. In the long bleachers on the
north side of McCook field We're two
thousand of the student body and Law
renee populace. A band in uniform, the
university band, with it's strains of col
1ege airs cheered the fighting warriors
along. The Rock Chalk yell, the equal
of which has never been known, also

PHEAsANTs FOR FARMERS.
More Than 100 Applied for the &c

SaTina. Nov gEA bout three weeks
ago the game warden wrote to County
Clerk Burns and said that if a farmer
or farmers here would see that a pair
or more of these game birds had a
place to sleep and acquire sufficient
number of meals per day and a req
uisite amount of clothing as prescrib-
ed by police regulations, he would be
pleased to introduce him to ten pair
of the species and give him ''charac-
ter" besides.
"If I have had one application for
those homeless pheasants," said Mr..
Burns ct have had more than one
hundred. And they all came in with
characters to the effect that they
were game-bird broke and would be
good parents to any feathered or
phans that were well behaved and of
kindly disposition. @
but I couldn't divide twenty birds
among 100 families and insure both
white and dark meat for everybody
so I picked out ten good farmers and
they will get the pheasants one pair
each.'
