Summer Foods AS
Cause of Dyspepsia
Many Also Get Diarrhoea-
What To Do in Either Case

Summer ought to be the months of
most perfect health, but owing to
contaminated water and milk, unripe
fruit, germs and insects the average
of health is not good at this time of
the year. There is much skin trouble
from acid fruits and much dyspepsia
and diarrhoea from cold foods and
iced beverage
The skin trouble is easily stopped
by disseminating fruit for a few days,
and by the use of a mild laxative to
clean the bowels and tone the blood
The dyspepsia is likewise corrected
by the use of a laxative that has COM
bined with it the elements of a diges-
tive tonic. Hence the best remedy to
use is DIR. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin,
which, as its name indicates. is a
pleasant laxative combined with the
virtues of pepsin, which we all know
is the best cure for indigestion.
Use Syrup of Pepsin also for sum-
mer diarrhoea. Avoid astringents.

Lightning Victim Recovering.

Hugoton, Kan. Aug. II. o. Hol-
man, a rancher near here who was
struck by lightning during a severe
electrical storm a few days ago, is i'm
proving rapidly. Holman was alone at
the ranch during the storm. The bolt
entered the roof, passed down a wall
and jumped to an iron bedstead on
which Holman's arm was resting. 1t
passed through the arm and down
through the body and leg to the floor.
Holman was unconscious for hours
but when he regained consciousness
succeeded in calling help over the tel
ephone. He is severely burned, but
only slightly dazed and gives vivid
description of the accident.

HARVEY COUNTY AUDIT.
Officers Shortages Aggregate $SO3.43
for 10 Years.

Newton, Kan, Aug. THE county
commissioners of Harvey county have
just received the report of the Audit
and Bond Company of America, on the
exhaustive examination of the records
of this county from 1894 down to Oc-
tober, 1912. The report shows discre
pancies in the accounts of nine Off
Gals during all that period, and a net
shortage in fees supposed to belong to
the county aggregating $S03.43 net. This
matter of the audit was made a cam
paign issue by the Democrats locally
in 1910 and again in 1912. A majority
of the board was elected last fall who
were favorable to the audit, and the
order was made. The expense to the
county for the certified accountants
was $4,000. The report -oes not allege
any crookedness, but rather blames the
old fee system, and the laxity in ac-
cepting reports in vogue some years
ago. In two instances it was found
that officers had turned in too much
money in fees.

WESTERN PACIFIC ACTIVE.
Officials of Other Lines See Compeu-
ton in Reorganization.


Officials of railroads operating in

aggressive activity being displayed by

lately secured a large sum of money,
is said to be about to build branch
lines in this state and in Idaho, says

firmation could be obtained.
The appointment of H. F. Bush as
president and E. L. Brown as general
manager of the road indicates that a
complete reorganization has begun
under the two men who in similar
capacity are said to have put the Den
yer and Rio Grande road on it's feet
in two years after 1T had long been
unsatisfactory. Mr.. Bush is now pres
ident of the Missouri Pacific COM
Dany, Rio Grande and Western Pa
cific. Mr.. Brown is manager of the
last two roads.
It is evident that these so-called
Gould lines are determined to get q
larger share of the transcontinental
traffic in the future and that they will
be prepared for it before 1915.
A. S. Hughes has been appointed
general traffic manager of the Denver

cific, with offices at Denver, Col, and
E. L. Lomax is assistant passenger
traffic manager, with offices at San
Francisco. F. A. Wadleigh has been

penitentiary under the wardenship of
Thomas w. Morgan came Wednesday

the carpenter shop, and Walter z.
Beltz, a guard, were requested to re-

near Fallbrook and up by way of Red

that years ago was wiped out of eN-
istence by a flood, for heavy traffic,

G. G. W. on 2-Cent Basis.

St Paul, Mimi, Aug. THE chi
cago Great Western railroad will with
in ten days, put into effect the new
2-cent passenger rates as ordered by
the United States supreme court In It's
recent decision in the Minnesota rate
cases. This announcement was made
following a conference between At
torney General Smith, railroad COM
missioners and officials of the Great
Western.
The injunction preventing seven rail-
roads from enforcing the 2-cent pas
senger rate, granted by Judge San
born, never had been dismissed in the
case of the Great Western.
Following the supreme courts de-
cision attorneys for the Great Western
appeared in federal court here when
injunctions against the other roads
were dismissed and declared that the
Great Western was on a basis finan-
cially with the Minneapolis st. Louis
road, in which the supreme court held
tho new rates would be confiScatory.
1t was announced the rates would
go into effect as soon as new rates
could be published.

NO HIGH SCHOOL LEVY.
Haskell County Commissioners Refuse
to Consider Subject.

Santa Fe, Kan, Aug. THE COM
missioners of Haskell county, at their
meeting yesterday, refused to con-
sloer levy for the county high
school, although Miss McElhinny, the
county superintendent, gave them a
letter from the state superintendent,
VINO was very decidedly of the opin-
ion that 1t was not a question of what
they wanted to do but they would be
compelled OF do this if they acted
within the limits of the law and that
the attorney general of the state
would assist in forcing them to make
this levy, if such a course was neces-
sary.
The people of Sublette did not
want high school if it had to be
held at Santa Fe and most of the
male population of Sublette came up
to see that this levy was not voted
or at least that was the general idea.
The commissioners will be man
oamuSsed and compelled to put on
the levy in accordance with the law
governing this case

farmers of this county do not get a

of good wheat and also a few thou
sand bushels of oats. Cloud county
has got one farmer who threshed
over $4,000 bushels of wheat, a few
who had over 5000 bushels. one who
had over 5000 bushels and many who

ages of drouth and grasshoppers have
caused the broom corn market to ad-

days. The advance has encouraged
many growers who did not suffer from
the hoppers or dry weather to a great
extent to plan on replanting the crop
for next year. Others are holding to
the determination made early in the
season to quit the crop entirely.
