A. w. CHASE'S NERVE PILLS
The successful men and women are
often of the high-strung nervous
type-keen and active-but with too
little reserve force.
A little extra worry and anxiety and
snap goes the nervous system. Weeks
and months are often required before
energy and vigor are regained.
Rest helps, so does fresh air and
exercise, but the blood must also be
made rich and red by use of DR.. A.
w. Chase's Nerve Pills.
Mrs. p. G. Haines, Rossburg, Oregon,
states: cdr, "A. w. Chase Nerve
Pills have done me great deal of good
/ in building up the nervous system. For
over twenty years I suffered with my

more benefit from these pills than from

OF the many arguments against sa-

From this it appears that they closed

Friday Harbor a Dry Town

BIZ the decisive vote of 81 to SO
the electors of Friday Harbor at the
election held last Tuesday declared
for a dry town. Even the most can
auine had not hoped to pile up q
majority like this, and to say that
they rejoice over the result is putting
it mildly. For years past the var
ioua boards of county commissioners
have used Friday Harbor as the dump
ing ground for the county's whiskey
traffic. until. as Is shown By the deci-
sive vote, it bad become unbearable.
There are a few who had sympathised
with the cause of the twets" that
have declared that the throwing out
of the saloons would "kill the town. :"
Even il there we're any truth in that
argument, lie it not better to sacrifice
a few dollars than to live in a place
that has for years openly offered the
evil temptations which our young
boys ind girls have had to facet On
the other hand. the Islander believes
that it will be but short time until
business conditions in every legiti-
mate line of trade will show marked
improvement. IL has been the his
tory bf every bther community where
Similar conditions have existed. that
bank deposits have increased. that
homes have been better provided for,
children better protected and cared
for and that there are more heads of
families owning their homes than un-
der the saloon system.
It is true that a few may suffer f.
nahcially by reason of engaging In a
business which must now cease. but
they knew they were taking these
chances when they engaged in it. For
every one who may suffer loss there
are hundreds who will be benefited
by the turn affairs have taken. and
the "dry'' majority ia so large that
there is little reason to believe that
the voters will very soon, if ever,
be called upon again to test the cas-.
at the polls. Friday Harbor has mo-
only been declared a dry town but VI
believe it will remain SO.
There may be some attempt mad
at tboot-legRinR" or other illici
selling, but there is little to fea
from this source go long as the officer
of the law do their duty, and judginl
from his attitude in the recent fgh
our present prosecuting attorney, r
E. Morris. can be relied upon to d.
his part.
The Islander bears none of the iq
uor dealers any i'll will and it hope
that they will accept the result philo
sophically and do as others have dom
in other communities that have gon'
''dry, ''enRage in and prosper In othe
lines of business regarded alike b.
the law and public sediment as legiti
mate and calculated to promote rathe
than impair the greatest good of tn
greatest number.

FLEES FROM JAIL;
TRAMPS MILES
WITH CHAINS

London, England, Jan. 19.-News has
been received in London Of the death of
Joseph Creswick, who, while fleeing
from justice, accomplished one of the
most remarkable walking feats On rec
ord.
Creswick was undergoing sentence
for forgery in Rhodesia, and was be-
ing conveyed from one prison to another.
by train, when he resolved to escape. AS
his legs were heavily ironed the task
was by no means an easy one, but Cres-
wick was a man of infinite daring and
resource.
His opportunity came one night when
the train in which he was being con-
veyed was between Bulawayo and Sails
bury. The train was proceeding at a
fairly fast rate, and he found that his
guards were fast asleep. He quietly
opened the carriage door and jumped
out. Hampered as he was by leg irons
Creswick seemed to be counting death.
He stumbled and fell, but he was by
no means badly hurt.
Saws Manacles With Rock.
1t was not until he had been walk
ing for several days that he addressed
himself to the task of getting rid of his
leg irons. AS he had no file or piece
of metal of any description, the task
was a difficult one, especially as he
found himself growing somewhat weak,
wild fruit being his only means of sup
port after he had finished the food he
had with him when he leaped from the
train His legs had become chafed, and
the slightest movement caused him great
pain. Day after day, night after night,
he rubbed his irons with the sharpest
pieces of rock he could find, until at
last his efforts were rewarded with sue
cess.
Some weeks after his escape the wan
derer had wonderful piece of luck. In
a hut. apparently belonging to settler,
he found a gun and some ammunition.
He managed to shoot several ZebraS and
other animals, which provided him with
many a welcome meal. The gun, an old
fashioned one, got out of order how
ever, before his ammunition became ex-
hausted. and he again had to rely upon
fruit for his sustenance.
Suffers From Fever.
Just eight months after his escape
from the train between Salisbury and
BuIawayo he was found by party of
Belgians lying in a weak and feverish
condition 200 miles from Leopoldyille, on
the Congo. They were much impressed
by the mans story. and nursed him back
10 health AT Bomba, arrayed in all the
glory Of a pair of cricket flannels and
a football jersey, provided by his new
friends. the fugitive found ship. on
which he worked his passage to Ante
werp. From there he got a ship TO
London That, however, led to his I'M
doing. for while walking in Whitechapel
he was recognized by detective inspec-
tor Belcher, of Scotland Yard, who ar
rested him on the charge of escaping
from lawful custody.
He was taken subsequently, to Rho
desia by detective Brundell, of the Rho
desian police, as a fugitive offender.
and for his escapade he was sentenced
to a further term of six months i'm
prisonment. But he had never complete
" recovered from the fever contracted
during his extraordinary. wanderings.
and he has just died in prison.

INDIVIDUAL PAPEa CUPS

with a supply of paper cups in each
car. This service, it is understood, viii

ice of the Rock Island in Texas. The
Rock Island is following the lead of the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas, as announced
by the general passenger agent, w. S.
st. George, some time ago. The Katy
Flyer" and all the other important
trains of that road will be equipped
with individual drinking cups The
San Antonio & Arkansas Pass railway
is another line which has installed the
improved service.
Nearly all trunk lines of the south
west were effected by the action of
Kansas last September in abolishing the
common drinking cup and that of the
Oklahoma commissioner of health. ].
G. Mahr, who has ordered the discon-
tinuance of the use Of the common
drinking cup to take effect next May.
The quick action of the railroads has
received the commentator of DR..

RAILROAD NEWS.
SOAP AND OATS
TRAVEL CHEAPLY
Railroads Say the Rate Is
Far Too Low and Ask
For an Increase.

Cleanliness may be next to Goodness
in Texas, but some Texas railroads be-
ieve that they are receiving too little
for transportation of soap.
Just think OF it! They allege that
soap, scented soap, laundry soap, and
powdered soap, is lodging all just rates
and finding its wav to peoples faces,
or peoples linen without the proper
railroad tariff.
1t has been announced by the Texas
railroad commission that at a meeting
in Austin, Feb. s, this soapy subject
will be adjusted. An application prays
for an increase in the prescribed mini
mum carload weight on carloads Of soap.
The commission will consider an amend
ment to tariff No AZ, which deals with
soap rates. Probably the price of soap
to the consumer will be unaffected
Also, at the February meeting in the
state capital, an application by the rail
roads to increase the transportation cost
of grain and grain products will pc con-
sidered Certain minimums on carload
weights are requested. 1t is said that
there is no danger of any horses going
hungry if the request Is granted.

And didn't his mother know a lot,

nurse him regularly and wash him and
look after him as if he was their own.
And they're actually jealous of one an

puny thin little kitten died and the
mother mourned it for weeks. Then
she took for her. own a kitten belong

so hard to keep track of how many
cats we have, for the number is con-

and leave us, and we never have them
all together here to count them
Whenever we go out to club meet
ings or to friends houses in the neigh

cats waiting outside the door for us.
