Juice is doing in this community, as
it has made many remarkable cures

several years. The doctors gave me
medicine for catarrh of the stomach,
gastric ulcers, indigestion. dyspepsia
and stomach troubles generally, but
derived no benefit. My appetite was
variable-sometimes hungry as wolf,
then sickening at the mere thought of
food. l was subject to dizzy spells
and sick headache. l was thin, weak,
Respondent and nervous, and had to
take some kind of medicine all the
time on account of my badly consti-
pated condition. A lady friend told
me that she had suffered very much
as did, but that Root Juice had COM
pletely cured her, SO I concluded to
try it. and before I had used the first
bottle l was rapidly improving in ev-
cry way. l continued taking the truly
great medicine about six weeks. and

The Argus Daily Short Story
A Fish Story-By Martha McCulloch- Williams
copyr1gntea. 1908. Associated Literary Preas:

The willow zee cared ~ fGr out
over the wafer that all that haprSEcd
in 1t was mirrorcd in The face OF the
stream. There was an eddy at the
tree foot. with 4 deepish poo! under
meath. Trout lurlled in he pool. so
big and wary they were the despair
of all neighhorhood fishermen.
The Ennis boy. Of course. had told
Wilmer all about them. Wilmer. in
deed. had found the lad much like Il
local chronicle. In the week since he
had established himself at the Ennis
farmhouse sIe lrtd been possessed dfrst

remnant tracts of hardwood timber.
4 new railway was mooted. not YET
even in the air. but in the minds of
certain men. Before building it they
wanted to make certain of sure and
quick returns Walnut. white oak.
cherry and ash in sufficient amount
would furnish such returns.
Wilmer had been told to spend q
fortnight looking for timber Now. at
the middle OF the fortnight he knew
he need look no more so he was giving
his whole mind 20 the enjoyment Of
fishing: hence today's excursion begun
at sunrise. SO far the EXCURSION had
been fruitlesS The Ennis boy was
distressed He had rather Dragged
of the sport they We're to have. Be
sides, Wilmer had promised him sill
yer dollar if they managed TO catch
even one big trout.
Wilmer had his reasons aside from
natural liberality. He was on the
edge of falling in love with girl
dragon guarded. The dragon was a
crusty uncle whose sole enthusiasm
was for fish and fishing. If Wilmer
could send off in the nights mail q
snapshot of even two FOUNDER, along
with chatty account of the place
where such fish might be caught. he
knew he would come near to estab-
fishing himself in the dragons good
graces. He would also do well for
his immediate principals. since the
dragon was among the chiefest of those
depended on to finance the new line.
So he came to the willow tree with
something beyond sportsman eager
ness. Approach TO it was not directly
along the water side. but across
tiny promontory of gravelly turf. He
knelt among the taut outstanding roots
stretching back of it. made ready his

Renewing the Forests,

lows the removal of protective forests.
is now among the leading nations WORK
ing for the conservation of forest re-
sources. Extensive operations in re-
forestation have been going on for 40
years, and the Italian secretary of ag-
rculture has just published his report
on the progress made in that time
This report indicates that the Italian
government is keenly aware of the
value of forests in the country. and
that it is determined to bring its de-
forested lands into a forested state as
soon again as possible. To attain this
end, planting operations have been
conducted on government land to such
an extent that during the last 80 years
10000 acres have been planted in %
OF the provinces of Italy.
OF this area $4,000 acres. or approx
imately los square miles, were plant

Is DIR. Cook Cornered?

1t looks as if the great north pole
explorer was in a corner. The first
suspicion of his story came when he
was caught using old photographs
taken years ago. pretending they were
taken this trip. When cornered he
confessed this was 50, but insisted
they were just as good for all purposes.
Then keenan, showed how it was i'm
possible to make the journey as he
claimed, with the few provisions AMI
sledges he had. Then Peary gave the
statement of the two Eskimos who
said Cook never got to the pole Now
come two men who were with Cook
at Mt. Mckinley, who make affidavit
that he stopped about 20 miles short
of the top, took some fake photographs
and told them to say nothing about il.

He dared not speak. The Ennis lad
had warned him word was death to
his chances. The boy also had seen
the intruding line. In swift panto-
mime, by throwing himself prone and
lying at ease. he counseled Wilmer to
stay. 1t was good counsel. Wilmer
decided. He stood fast, keeping well
away from the bank and so maneu-
yering his rod as to keep his bait

'Hurr1or and
Philosophy
THE NEW HERO.
By DUNCAN m. SMITH

VNfIls conquering hero OF today
Is not the man OF battle
Who wins his fame where chargers foam
And muskets loudly rattle.
No: it's the man VINO finds germ
And mas a weapon handy
To neutralize the pesky thing
Who now Is all the candy.
The hero does not seize a gun
And thus fare forth to pillage-
He monkeys with the microscope
Around the little village.
And when he finds a bunch or germs
In one small water bubble
He feeds them raw formaldehyde
And puts them out OF trouble.
The hero Is the gentleman
Who searches distant spaces
Ten thousand million miles away
And on the stars Keeps cases
He looks the comet in the eye
In al! its glowing splendor
And tells Il it should wear through space
A modern street car fender.
'Tis science makes the heroes who
Are fiji today for framing.
The fellows who the elements
OF earth and air are tanning.
Those who IN gaudy uniform
Stand bravely at attention
VIII be forgotten when the men
OF germs get ali the mention.

Something between 80 cents and
100000 will change hands as a re-
suit of the ball game in Detroit today
and the verdict of the score-keeper
will not be questioned. While the
gate at the baseball game has been
commerciaiized the play itself never
has. and million dollars would not
buy a game from Clarke or Jennings
or their associates. The reason why
baseball is the national game is be-
cause it has been preserved from scan

HIT BY A TRAIN;

Run Down by Rock Island
Passenger.
WALKING BETWEEN RAILS
apparently Did Not Hear the APP
proach OF the Engine-Dies at
Hospital.

Frank Siekos. section hand, died
at the Moline city hospital at 4:3O
O'Clock yesterday afternoon of injuries
received two hours before when he
was run down three miles east of
Barstow by Rock Island train,
The train that struck Sickos was
stbomd passenger No. Z. Sickos was
walking between the rails and was go
ing in the same direction as the train.
A high wind was blowing, and the sup
position is that he did not hear the
approach of the train until it was upon
him. At any rate, according to the
men in charge of the locomotive, he
made no effort to get out of the way.
Internal Injuries Fatal.
An examination at the city hospital
showed that Sickos' right arm had
been fractured in three places and that
his spine was affected. Internal injur-
les brought on hemorrhages, and this
was presumably the immediate cause
of death.
Coroner John r. Rose has taken
charge of the body. and has ordered a
post norton inquiry. This will be
conducted at 9 o'clock thig evening.
The inquest has been postponed until
tomorrow.
Sickos was 40 years old. Little is
known of him, excepting that he was
reported by men who worked with him
as having several cousins in this coun-
try. He never said where they re-
sided He was unmarried so far as
any one knows.
