troll. The front wheels locked and

en- ribs and a badly lacerated face.

Feed Out Your Hogs Six
Weeks Earlier.

In every lot of hogs on feed two or
three fatten quickly and actually eat
less than others. If all would fatten ike
these, the entire drove would be ready
for the market six weeks earlier, and
to save six weeks feed is an item that
you fully understand.
the hog that fattens easily must be

Hunting on Lower Colorado.

To the hunter of game both large and small, the Colorado will appear
 most notable as being the gateway to what is undoubtedly the best easily reached shooting ground in North America, the delta country about the head of the Gulf of California in Mex. ico Here, besides a wealth of bird
 life that is equaled by few regions in the world, are to be found wild pig or
 javelin, deer. mountain lion, jaguar.
 wildcat, coyote. antelope and noun.
 tain sheep The delta country. with
 it's hunting. is generally the objective of the Colorado voyageur in any case, and for one whose time Is limited the most expeditions plan will be to outfit at Yuma and float down the river tc the end of the gulf from that point
 With plenty of time at ones disposal. it will be worth while to make the Needles the point of embarkation, as the stretch between there and Yuma offers a rare combination of fine scenery with safe going that is equaled by few streams in America.-Outing.

CHAPTER XVIII.
Two Lovely Women,

There was music at the Villa des Bougainvilleas. Miss Redmond sang; not Goodnight, God Keep You Safe" but other things Ever since her talk with Hammet Abou she had been, if not gay, in good spirits, more like her old self and the Marquise d Esclig- mac began to think that the image of Charles de Sabron had not been cut too deeply upon her mind. The mar quise. from the lounge in the shadow of the room, enjoyed the picture (Sabron would not have added it to his collection) of her niece at the piano and the Due de Fremont by her side. The Comtesse de la Maine sat in a little shadow of her own, musing and enjoying the picture of the Due de Fremont and Miss Redmond very indifferently, She did not ing, she had no parlor accomplishments. She was poor, a widow, and had a child. She was not brilliant match.

 Julia Redmond smiled: the youth ful Marquise d'Esclignac!
 Once more Fremont seized the man by the arm and shook him little

 Well, what have you got to tell, and how much do you want for it?"

 It looked like a package of letters and a mans pocketbook.
 You take it" said the Due de Ire mont to Julia Redmond, you take 1t, Mademoiselle" She did so without hesitation; it was evidently Sabron' 8 pocketbook, a leather one with his initials upon it, together with little package of letters. On the top she saw her letter to him. Her hand trembled so that she could scarcely hold the package. It seemed to be all | that was left to her. She heard Ire mont ask:

 He started to pull away his rags. Fremont clutched him.
 You beast" he muttered, and pushed him back. If you have any thing to say, say it."
 Looking at Julia Redmond's color less face. the native asked meaningly:

 Fremont said:

Mir. Jimso was in the habit of at- tending meetings which often de- tained him after the usual hour of re- tirement. One night he was exceed ingly late, and his wife, after fretting herself into a temper went to bed. determined to give her husband lesson. When she had been upstairs about ten minutes she heard a knock, so, putting her head out of the win dow, she inquired:
 "Is that you, Tom?"
 Yes. Kate; come and open the door," was the answer.
 What has kept you out so late?" asked his wife.

CAL0MEL WHEN BILIOUS? NO! STOP!
 ACTS LIKE DYNAMITE ON LIVER
Guarantee Dodsons Liver Tone" Will Give You the Best Liver and Bowel Cleansing You Ever Had-Doesnt Make You Sc

Stop using calomel! It makes you sick. Don't lose a days work. If you feel lazy, sluggish, bilious or consti- pated, listen to mel
 Calomel is mercury or quicksilver which causes necrosis of the bones. Calomel, when it comes into contact with sour bile, crashes into it, breaking 1t up. This is when you feel that aw- ful nausea and cramping. If you feel 'all knocked out" if your liver is tor pid and bowels constipated or you have headache, dizziness, coated tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour just try a spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone.
 Here's my guarantee-Go to any drug store or dealer and get a 50-cent bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone Take a
The Carlisle independent., 1915-09-09

spoonful and if it doesn't straighten you right up and make you feel fine and vigorous I want you to go back to the store and get your money. Dod- sons Liver Tone is destroying the sale of calomel because 1t is real liver medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore it cannot salivate or make you sick.
 I guarantee that one spoonful Of Dodson's Liver Tone will put your sluggish liver to work and clean your bowels of that sour bile and consti- pated waste which is clogging your system and making you feel miserable. guarantee that a bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone will keep your entire fam fly feeling fine for months. Give it to your children. It is harmless; doesn't gripe and they like it's pleasant taste.

 Do you believe him?" asked Julia Redmond.
 Hum" said Fremont He did not wish to tell her he thought the man capable of robbing the dead body of his master. He asked the native: Have you no other news?"
 The man was silent He clutched the rags at his breast and looked at Julia Redmond.
 Please give him some money. Mon sieur."

 But it is not all" said the native quietly, looking at Julia
 Her heart began to beat like mad and she looked at the man. His keen dark eyes seemed to pierce her.
 Monsieur" said the American girl | boldly would you leave me mo- ment with him? l think he wants to speak with me alone"
 But the Due de Fremont exclaimed in surprise:
 ITO speak with you alone, Mademoi- selle. Why should he? Such a thing is not possible,"
 Don't go far" she begged, but leave us a moment, I pray"
 When Fremont. with great hesita- ton. took a few steps away from them and she stood face to face with the creature who had been with Sab ron and seen him fall. she said earn estly:
 Now speak without reserve. Tell me everything"
 The face of the man was trans formed. He became human, devoted, ardent

HESS|AN FLY NOW
Heavy Damage to the Growing
Wheat Crop Reported from
Sumner County.
THOUSANDS OF ACRES RUINED
Pest Said to Be Especially Bad Around
Wellinoton-The Saline Fields
Affected, Too.

The presence Of the Hessian fly in
the growing wheat in practically all
parts Of Sumner county has been es-
tablished. The pest is especially bad
in the immediate vicinity of Yelling
ton, where thousands Of acres have
been given up by their owners as not
worth harvesting.
In the west and southwest portions
Of the county the damage seems to be
less, but even there the yield will be
greatly cut down. The prospect for a
large crop was exceptionally good up
to the time the presence of the fly was
discovered.
The Hessian fly is causing much
damage to the wheat fields of Salina
county, according to farmers. Several
fields In the southern part of the coun-
ty are affected and some are being
listed in corn. Little damage is re-
ported from other parts.
May wheat took leap upward OF
Az to cents bushel on the Kansas
City board Of trade and new crop"
wheat, which will be marketed In July
and September, advanced 6 and ca
cents bushel. making an advance in
price on new crop" wheat of at least
10 cents in the last few days.
A week ago the wheat fields in the
neighborhood Of Effingham began
turning yellow. An examination by
Prof. c. H. Taylor, county farm demon
strator, revealed what appears to be
new insect pest. From twelve to
fifteen small maggots and countless
eggs were attached to the bases OF
each stalk. A district of six square
miles is affected. Some farmers are
blowing up their fields Experts from
Manhattan have been sent for.
