The regular use of resinol soap is
usually enough to prevent those dis

most babies are subject. This is SO,

second, because it contains the resinol
medication, on which 80 many physi.

CORRESPONDENCE
TnoRNE, October 27, 1918.

A Mrs. Vogel of Chicago, purport-
ing to be souvenir hunting, boarded
the train Sunday for San Francisco.
The fact that she is gathering data
ON the early life of Mark Twain was
only too manifest to be mistaken for
souvenir hunting.
Knowing no doubt of the unfavor-
able impressions made by one Van
Loan, she was cautious to avoid any
outward sign that would suspect she
was representing Chicago daily
She boldly admitted, however, that
any "reminiscences bearing on the
early life of the noted humorist was
acceptable to her.
Mrs. Vogel came from Aurora,
where spent two days collecting rec
elections and other data pertaining
to the great writer. She visited the
cabin said to be built by Mark
Twain and wherein he commenced
his early writings The present occu-
pant of the shack is an aged person
named Kelly from whom she secured
u souvenir shingle from the roof and
after explaining its intrinsic value,
she was informed by the old man
that Mark Twain never occupied the
cabin, but Mrs. Vogel was positive
and pointed to The unusual width of
the boards of which the cabin was
constructed to prove her conten-
tions. The authorities told her
that Clemens made u triumphal en-
try to the old city on u prairie
schooner but en- route to the train
she learned that Mark Twain walked
into Aurora on his 'uppers.
She explained that her interest in
Mark Twain was due to the fact that
her father was born in the same
village on the banks of the Mssissi-
ppi where Clemens first saw the
light of day.
Her father who was a railroad man
died in Chicago last June.
Mrs. Vogel objects strongly to the
western slang. Somewhere in New
ada she was charged four bones
and here in Thorne when she in
quired the price of meal she was
told -four bits 1t was regrettable
she said that SO much slang was in
evidence in the west.
