FROM OUR
CORRESPONDENTS
AUkUM.

Feb. 2--The rain has temporarily
ceased. This morning the wind blew
from the southeast and may bring
more rain. "Forty days and forty
nights" l heard one man say, for 1t
has rained nearly thirty, and it
won't take more than ten days more
to fit the gap. "Did 1t disturb meY"
Well, yes haven't worked but three
and a half days in the last month,
didn't care to turn aquatic, and l
roasted most of the time. 'Good
morning mister, when the sun comes
out again you'll see me out taking
the sunshine"
Well, this is about the opltome of
the storm that swept with devastation
along the valley of the Sacramento in
the latter part of last month. 1t
struck here and landed there with the
com bined force of the down pour Of
the valley and left devastation, and
destruction in its trail. There has
nothing occurred here worthy of the
notice of telephone. An old maid
announced that stork had flew
across Aukum, but where it lit, ]
leave some of the ambitious urchins
to chronicle. If bad time | would
write a personal letter to President
Roosevelt apprising him of the fact
that the vicinity of Aukum had
counted one in the way of saving the
nation from extinction. 1t might
be gratifying to him, 1t is we'll to
mention, however, that it is not a
soldier.
Au revoiI. l might as we'll put in
a little French in this letter for ones
got to keep pace with the times.
The elite of this day use Latin,
French and German, as sauce to
flavor their mental ability. Since L
have come to think of it the French
atmosphere favored witha few counts
induce more than one heIress to part
with their beauty and solid cash just
for the reason she wants to be called
a countess, and live in the dazzling
light of the city of "Paree. II

Eat What
You want of the food you need
Kodol will digest it.

You need a sufficient amount of
good wholesome food and more than
this you need to fully digest 1t.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
can you strengthen your stomach IL
It is weak. 90
You must eat in order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat suflic-
lent amount of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and it must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do it,
you must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol di-
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak it needs help;
you must help it by giving it rest,
and Kodol will do that.
