REAL MERIT HAS MADE
BONDS LIVER PILLS

a household word through the South.
We have spared neither time nor
money in perfecting BONDS PILLS
for the cure of Headaches, Bilious
ness, Constipation, Malaria, and sim
liar ills. MERIT was our chief object
Not how cheap" but how good we
could make them.
The extraordinary success OF
BONDS PILLS is due solely to their
MERIT, not to loud and misleading

In order to furnish the innumerable
delicate tints OF paint required by artists,
manufacturers have nowadays to ran
sack the world. Even mummies have
lately been called into use.
Mummies are usually preserved in the
finest bitumen, and this ancient bitumen
has, in the course OF centuries, turned the
mummies a leathery brown tint. 1t has
been found that when the bitumen and
the shreds of mummy are ground down
by machinery, a beautiful, brown pigment
is the result-e exactly the tint required for
painting certain shades of brown hair.
Sepia is one OF the comu,onest of artists
paints. 1t is deep brown in color, and
comes from source equally strange. 1t is
prepared from the black, inky fluid dis
charged by the cuttlefish to blind and
battle its enemies.
Prussia blue is prepared from horses
hoofs, and is made by fusing the boots
with potassium carbonate.
Raw sienna is soil from near Sienna in
Italy. Burnt sienna, another common
tint, is simply the same earth burnt.
The majority of pigments for making
colors-that Is, the dry powder-are OBJ
tanned from minerals, but many pigments
come from the animal kingdom. Cochi-
neal, for example, comes from the dried
bodies OF insects. A kind OF pitch is also
used for certain pigments.

INDORSE NEWBRO'S
HERPICIDE FOR THE HAIR

When a doctor endorses a prepara-
ton it means more than an ordinary
testimonial. His opinion is always that
of the professional man devoted to the
welfare of the people.
DIR. j. j. Boyd, Covington, Tenn,
says: II feel it my duty to write this
for the benefit of those suffering from
dandruff. In the average case a few
applications of Newbro's Herpicide will
remove all dandruff. 1t is advisable to
continue its use for several weeks"
The words of j. B. Thompson, M. d.,
No. 2 Burrough Place. Cor. Hills St.,
Boston, Mass, are not less enthusiast
tic: 81 can only speak in praise of
Newbro's Herpicide. 1t is all that is
claimed and perhaps more. Herpicide
not only ~cleanses the scalp but bright
ems the hair, gives it life and makes
it soft"

ON THE SANTA FE TRAIL
Story Of a Toll Bridge That Wa
Later Put Out of Business
by Railroad.

The first bridge In western Kansas
was on the old Santa Fe trail. in Ford
county, across the Pawnee creek.
about forty miles north of Dodge City.
John O'Loughlin, who now lives at
Lakin, built the old bridge, and made
a small fortune from 1t charging toll
for the use of it. 1t was in the early
'7Os, before the railroad had pushed
It's way up the valley and when all
traffic had to be carried by teams on
the trail.
OLoughlin, while prospecting
through the country, noticed that the
crossing at Pawnee creek was a bad
place, the banks being steep on both
sides.
He built the bridge, erected a little
store and began collecting toll from
teamsters and others using the bridge.
II they didn't want to pay. they didn't
have to. They could ford across the
old way. But as a rule they were
glad to pay.
When a government train came
along OLoughlin took receipts or or
ders, the government teamsters hav-
ing no authority to pay money. He
accumulated these orders or receipts
and collected them from the govern
ment later at one time receiving
a draft for $1,000 for his toll charges.
The bridge cost him. he figured,
something like 500, and he estimated
that in the year or two he operated
1t he cleaned up $4,000 or more.
But the building Of the Santa Fe
railway up the. valley in 1928 put
OLoughlin's toll bridge out Of busi-
ness. Transfers nc longer had to use
the Santa Fee trail. The railway
killed teaming and toll collecting
alike.
So O'Loughlin abandoned his bridge.
closed his store and moved to Lakin,
where he still resides.-Kansas City

AS he made his order, Anne became
conscious of voices at a nearby table,
A young girl sat facing a man whose

Phil Gaines.

under the rouge. The man who had
grown out Of the boy she had idealized
for years talking like that to his wife!
A wave Of pity for the tender little
bride passed over her heart and
cleared it of all memory of Phil.
Anne leaned over to whisper some
thing to the judge, then looked up to
face Phil as he rose from the table.

It Is to see you 'again!"

A sudden challege flashed In Pills

be very good to her."

made a bad beginning, Anne" he said,
confessing his fault like a penitent
boy.
Bring her right over here. / think
she is lovely. Then hurry, see your
man and get back in time to join us
for the opera" Anne felt as If she
had reused from an unpleasant dream
and was glad to be awake once more.
Anne" said Judge Carter as his
big limousine whirled them swiftly
through the snowy streets from the
hotel where they had left Phil and his
bride, 81 love you so and l need you.
I want you to make a home-with
me-"
You need me?" questioned Anne.
Yes, dear. Every man dreams all
his life of one woman. You are that
woman to me. Fear that you were
unhappy kept me from speaking, but
tonight you were so radiant, so hap
py in your kindness to the little bride,
I dare to dream, to hope Of winning
you. Could you learn to care? What
kind of a man could you lover"
"You;" said Anne softly, a sudden
Illuminating happiness flooding her
heart, because you are you. because
you will always rise to the level OF
my need Of you"
"And will you love me always?
Always" came the quiet answer,

A representative OF the horse
World published at Buffalo,
New York, recently made a tour
of the south and visited Lee
County. He was favorably i'm
pressed with Tupelo and Lee
county and made the following
comments upon what he found
in the county:
TUPELO, MISS.
Tupelo is one Of the growing
towns of Mississippi and when l
landed there l was Immediately
impressed with it's air of thrift
and general good looks, due, |
was informed, to the activity of
its Commercial Club, which is
composed of the representative
business men and substantial res
idents of the place. Its popula-
ton has doubled within a few
years and a beautiful Court
House, a new City Hall and opera
house, with wide asphalt streets,
furnished substantial evidence of
the clubs efforts. The fair
grounds are located within the
corporate limits and are
featured by one of the best half
mile tracks, and the association
is a member of one of the strong
est circuits of the South. Meet
tings have only been held here a
few years, but have been unusu-
ally successful and popular, and
will no doubt continue So. Miles
of new roads are in course of
construction under the direction
of the Good Roads League, which
will furnish better facilities for
reaching the place than have
heretofore prevailed.
Three of the men who are do
ing the most to advance the in
terests of the fair are: DR.. E.
D. Foster, secretary C.. E. Az
we'll and R. H. Mullen. Mr.. AZ
we'll has leased the grounds for
the present year and is offering
the track and stables free to
trainers who may want to pre-
pare their horses there. DR..
Foster owns the fastest trotting
stallion, Bob Ford, Eth, trial
2.104, by Prodigal, dam Rena B.
(dam of eight by Cyclone, sec-
ond dam by Strathmore. and two
three-year-olds by Bob Ford, out
of mares by Tennessee Wilkes.
The Doctor is undecided just
what to do with his stallion, as
he feels that he could take a very
fast record if given an opportu-
nifty. He was trotted, timed
separately on a half-mile track
in 2.13 and may be seen on the
Grand Circuit.
Another good stallion in the
neighborhood of Tupelo is Major
Pitcher, 2.153, by Fred S Wilkes,
2.113, out of a Hal mare, and
owned by E. B. Shelton, who
owns a farm eight miles from
town. The Major in all his rae
ing career was beaten out once,
and in that event he won second
money. He has a bar of 2.121
having won a heat in that time
on a half mile track. but the par
ty who owned him. after the
time was announced from the
stand, succeeded in having the
judges change it to g.. Isl, which
is the horses official record. At

raise the heifer calves.
Give the calf some of the first milk
to start it off properly. This should
come from its mother unless she is
tubercular, In which case any other
healthy COW, recently fresh, may be
used.
Give it whole milk for week or
ten days and then change gradually
to skimmilk by replacing one pound
of whole milk by one pound of skim
milk each day. Don't attempt to
make up for the low fat content in
the skimmilk by feeding larger guam
titles. The calf cannot handle more
skimmilk than it can whole milk.
Feed in small quantities. Be sure
the milk is fresh and warm 80 to 100
degrees F. and feed it from clean,
scalded pail. Your calf pail should
be as clean as the regular milk pail.
To make up for the loss in fat give
the calf some grain that is high in fat
and carbohydrates. Corn and barley
with little soy bean meal are good.
Oil meal may be fed in small guam
titles to act as laxative, but large
amounts cannot be used by the calf.
One-half to one pound day is large
feed of oil meal.
If the milk is needed for other pur-
poses the calf may be weaned at three
months, but rather than use the milk
for feeding hogs, it would be well to
give it to the calf up to five and six
months of age.
Provide plenty of good hay in the
winter time and nice lot for ex-
ercise. When available the calves
should be out on pasture practically
all the time.
