EASILY BREAKS A
SEVERE COLO

Pape's Cold Compound is the re-
suit of three years research at a
cost of more than fifty thousand
dollars, and contains no quinine
which we have conclusively dem
onstrated is not effective in the
treatment of colds or grippe.
1t is a positive fact that a dose
of Pape's Cold Compound, taken
every two hours until three con-
secutive doses are taken will end
the Grippe and break up the most
severe cold, either in the head
chest, back, stomach, limbs or any
part of the body.
1t promptly relieves the most
miserable headache, dullness, head
and nose stuffed up, feverishness,
sneezing, sore throat, running of
the nose, mucous catarrhal dis
charges, soreness, stiffness and
rheumatic twinges.
Take this harmless Compound
as directed with the knowledge
that there is no other medicine
made anywhere else in the world,
which will cure your cold or end
Grippe misery as promptly and
without any other assistance or
bad after-effects, as a 25-cent
package of Pape's Cold Compound
which any druggist in the world
can supply.

Turn the rascals out-the head

foul gases-turn them out tonight
and keep them out with Cascarets
Millions of men and women
take CaEcaret now and then and
never know the misery caused by
a lazy liver, clogged bowels or an
upset stomach.
Don't put in another day OF
distress. Let Cascarets cleanse
and regulate your stomach; re-
move the sour, undigesc>% and
fermenting food and that misery
making gas; take the excess bile
from your liver and carry out OF
the system all the decomposed
waste matter and poison in the in
testines and bowels. Then you
will feel great.

They work while you sleep. A

For Decent Drama.

The Baltimore Sun is joining in the
universal demand for q clean and
wholesale drama. No one can deny
that the drama is a powerful force for
good or evil Puritanism would have
put its ban upon the theatre and
closed its doors. But such edicts have
lost their force, and the severest pains
and penalties cannot make them ef-
fective. The people must be amused,
and TO the vast majority the theatre
makes an irresistible appeal. There
was time when stern parents forbade
their children from attending plays
and boasted that they had never put
foot in theatre" But such parents
are rare today, and many of the strict
est churchmen attend without a twinge
of conscience. The attitude of the
churches toward the theatre Is chang
ing. Instead OF destruction, they are
looking toward regulation as the rem
edy for its faults.
The action of the American Fedora,
ton of Catholic societies in condemn
ing certain plays cannot be taken as
an effort to antagonize the theatre. but
is sincere attempt to bring about a
reform in the character of plays pre-
sented. The list condemned in the
letter of the federation includes "Sa-
lone" THE Blue Mouse" "The Soul
Kiss" THE Girl From Rector's :" "The
Easiest Way" THE Girl in the Train. !"
The Girl in the Taxi" Alma Wo
Wohnst Du"? and La Samartine. ~
Some of these appeal to the basest
passions and are an insult to the pat
rons OF decent theatre.
The theatre would not suffer in the
long run if every indecent and irrever-
ent play were excluded. 1t would gain
the support Of persons who now look
upon 1t as questionable. Actors and au-
thors often complain that Americans
refuse to take the drama seriously. but
that is the fault of managers and au-
thors quite as much as it is of the pub
lie. So long as managers refuse to
recognize their responsibility and con-
slider the production of plays the
amusement business" so long as they
cater to the thought1ess and the vi
cious, they cannot expect to be taken
seriously.
Rock Island Argus., 1911-09-09
.whY 90 xou think that p

"why do you think that?"
Because the minute hand Is just
twenty-five minutes ahead OF where ii
should be-"
There was more gaping. and finally
some one said:
Hans Becker is twenty-five years
old"
At this moment Gottlieb Zimmerman
approached and was told what Zwei-
gler had said
There is no proof that It is true"
What proof" asked Zweigler, 'Is
there that Gretchen Is a witch?"
"She has been seen to. vomit crooked
pins and ay out of the chimney on
broomstick-"
"Who saw herr
Frau Becker and her SON."
'T have better proof than that Re
lease Gretchen and arrest Frau and
Hans Becker and think the clock will
go Alright"
This divided the crowd into two fac
tions, the one opposed to and the other
in favor OF Zweigler's plan But 1t af-
forded q test, and tests were what the
people of that age required on which
to base their decisions. Indeed, If ii
was ridiculous it was a tribe less RI
diculous than believing an accusation
manifestly made for revenge. So those
who wished to make the experiment
prevailed. Gretchen was released and
her accusers arrested.
Meanwhile Zweigler had sent his
nephew up into the clock tower with
orders at a certain signal from him to
put the hands Of the clock in their
proper places. When Gretchen was re-
leased and Hans Becker and his moth
er were arrested the crowd - he'd back
into the market place to see If the
clock approved Of their course. 1t had
stood at o'clock and % minutes
shortly before their return. When they
saw it again it was exactly II o'clock.
Then the crowd clamored for the
burning of the Beckers, but Zweigler
told them It was possible that, after
all. the clock meant to show its disap-
proval of burning for witchcraft and
that was the reason why it had gone
wrong. The old man had acquired so
much confidence on account OF his di-
agnosis of the case thus far that the
people were ready to believe anything
he told them. They released Hans
Becker and his mother, and since the
clock continued to keep true time they
considered that they had done right.
That was the last case of witch
craft that came up before the courts
of Germany. and in a few years those
who had believed in 1t regarded 1t a
delusion.
Ludwig married Gretchen, and they
lived to q good old age.

For an answer the cowboys whipped

They're good said Becker quickly,
with a deprecatory wave OF his hand

The cowboys chucked their irons"

Becker walked on back TO his little

the gun properly placed in front OF

He stepped briskly in front Of them
and showed the big gun into their
faces. holding ft at such an angle that
a shot would have swept of the heads
of both.
Then he said again, gently, Your

The hands Of the cowboys tw1tched
couvulsively toward their pockets. and
Becker interjected. Give me those
tickets, please. that have handles and

and the hammers still up.
The cowboys nodded vigorously in
the affirmative. and they unloaded
quickly and without words at the next

The Argus Daily Short Story
The Town Clock-By Reynolds Atwild.
Copyrighted. 1911. by Associated Literary Press

One needs only to go back century
to step into social condition entirely
different from that in which we live
today, and two centuries ago the diff
ference was far greater.
Nevertheless in that age a faint
streak of dawn appeared on the hori-
zon of civilization. Certain implements
that were destined to revolutionize the
world were invented. OF these the
printing press and the umepiece were
perhaps the most notable. The clock
at once excited the ingenuity OF me-
chanics, and they added to it many
peculiar features. One clock on strtk-
ing the hour exhibited figures Of the
twelve apostles, WHO came out OF
door, walked around a circle and went
back into hiding. Another showed the
Magi adoring the infant Jesus. The
town clock henceforth regulated the
affairs of men. 1t established the
hours for labor and for worship.
In the town Of Zweirhofen, in Ger
many, Carl Zweigler had made the
clock high up in the tower that stood
in the market place. And, having built
it, he alone knew how to regulate and
repair it. If it stopped either Zweigier
must start it and keep it going or it
remained stopped. With it the good
people of Zweirhofen also stopped
And If It remained stopped they re-
mained stopped also. They did not
know at what hour to assemble for
trade or Tor prayer. They did not
know when to go to bed or to rise. II
a prisoner were sentenced for speci-
fed term no one knew when that term
began or ended. If a man were SEN
fenced to be hanged on a certain day
and hour no one knew when the sen
tence was to be executed
One day old Frau Becker appeared
before the Judge of the court and ac-
cused Gretchen Dagnar. lovely girl
of eighteen, OF being witch.
"What evidence" asked the judge,
"have you to corroborate your accusa-
tion?'
Last night 1 saw her go out into
her yard, and she fell down in a fit.
Later went and looked over the wall
