WILMINGTON, DeI.-"The hui
man horse" is the title Ralph DiFon-

100 ears of raw corn on a wager.
He walked into Daniel Bernado's
grocery store, and noticing a basket
of fresh corn which had been deliver
ed there a short time before, remark
ed: ''My, that looks good. I could
eat that raw" Others in the store
overheard the remark and offered to
bet him that he could not. why, l
can eat 700 ears just as it stands"
DfF'onzo declared.
Bernardo offered to give DiFonzo
the 100 ears of corn if he would eat
them. If he failed in the undertaking
he was to pay Bernardo 81 for what
he had eaten. DiFonzo accepted the
challenge. In d little more than an
hour he had eaten the 100 ears
of raw corn and with a grunt of
contentment he got to his feet and
declared that was the first time he
ever had enough corn.

SUMMER Constitution Dangerous.

Constipation in summer time Is
more dangerous than in the taIl,
winter or spring. The food you eat
is often contaminated and is more
likely to ferment in your stomach.
Then you are apt to drink much cold
water during the hot weather, thus
injuring your stomach. Collie, fever,
ptomaine poisoning and other ills
are natural results. Po-Do-Lax will
keep you well, as it increases the bile,
the natural laxative, which rids the
bowels of the cOngested poisonous
waste. Po-Do-Lax will make you feel
better. Pleasant and effective. Take
a dose tonight SOC at your drug
gist's.

This was nine years before his death. She went there and kept house for them, but the agreement she claim ed to have existed was not carried out in the will.
