ATE ONLY RAW EGGS;
NOW FEELING FINE

s. D. Martin of Elkton. O., suffered
with stomach troubles and difficulties
in his digestive tract. He lost weight
and his appetite was bad.
He took one dose Of Mayr's Wonder
ful Remedy and was swiftly restored
with one dose. Seven months later
he sent an order for more, saying:
Since taking you remedy l have
not been bothered any to speak OF
with my stomach. Before l had bad
headaches and dizzy, weak spells, OF
which am almost free. l have gained
fifteen pounds since taking the one
dose. It is not that l need the medi.
cine now that l am sending. l am

ventive. My wife induced a lady
friend to try 1t. She had been eating
only raw egg or cracker or two, and
often could not keep them down. This
lady used your remedy and 1t has al
most cured her"
Mayr's Wonderful Remedy gives per-
manent results for stomach, liver and
intestinal ailments. Eat as much and
whatever you like. No more distress

Famous Bridge Builder.

Gustav Lindenthal, who is building
the He'll Gate bridge at New York,
the greatest structure of the kind in
the world, which will have length of
three and one-half miles, is an Aus
trian by birth. He received his tech
nical education at Brunn and Vienna,
and before coming to this country in
1874 he had had considerable practical
experience in railroad building. His
first work in the United States was
as an assistant engineer on the force
constructing the Centennial exhibition
buildings. He became a citizen and
took up railroad building. Some of the
greatest bridges which he has built
span the Allegheny and Monongahela
rivers, though he has also spanned the
Mississippi and other streams. Though
famed as bridge builder he prefers
to be known as man who has had
more to do with laying out railroad
routes.

MUST HAVE SHOCKED JUDGE
What He Regarded as "DribbIines" Of
Hay Was All He was Co.
ing to Get.

A distinguished member of the
United States judiciary has discov-
cred that he still has something to
learn in the direction of agriculture.
He bought a farm as a summer
home for his family, and finds especial
delight in walking about the place,
commenting on the condition of the
crops, and in many ways showing his
interest in his new possessions.
One evening during the summer he
was strolling over the farm. The
hired man had cut the grass during
the day-a very thin crop-and left
1t on the ground to dry. The Judge
saw it, and calling his man, he said:
1T seems to me you are very care.
less. Why haven't you been more par
ticular in raking up this hay? Don't
you see that you have left little drib-
blings all around?"
For minute the hired man stared,
wondering If the judge was quizzing
him. Then he replied:
Little dribblings? Why, man,
that's the crop!"

CHANGES WROUGHT BY WAR
Tommy Atkins" Of Today Is Differ.
ent Being From His Prototype Of
Few Years Ago.

The old pouter-pigeon type of Brit
ish soldier, with his ramrod deport-
ment and feet at impossible angles.
Is now as obsolete as his red coat.
This change is evident, not only in
the training of the new army, but in
the royal cadet schools at Sandhurst
and Woolwich. Alertness and agility,
mental and physical, are now aimed
for instead of physical rigidity and
mechanical precision as in the old
times.
Swedish exercises have taken the
place of conventional calisthenics.
About the only piece of apparatus left
in the Sandhurst gymnasium is the
padded horse. Parallel bars, rings,
heavy dumb-bells and pulley exercises
have been sent away. Now the ca
dets are taught what is known in
their slang as monkey tricks, such
as walking on top of high and narrow
stone walls and jumping safely to the
ground, skipping the rope and playing
various kinds of games.
One reason why the pouter chest
has gone out of style is its menace to
health. An overdeveleped chest is
held to be dangerous, as it invites
pneumonia and other troubles. Men
on the march are allowed to unbutton
their coats and make themselves com.
Portable, but smoking at such times
is discouraged by the medical au-
thorities. The department of the sol
der on parade has also been made
normal and natural.

MAY MEAN END OF ALL WAR
Development Of Destructive AIrshlp
Sure to Have Powerful Effect on
Humanity.

The difficulty Of properly arming
and protecting aircraft lies in the
fact that we cannot yet obtain suf-
hciently powerful engines - even
though, in the course of a few years,
the engines have increased in horse
power from about fifty to two hun
dred, says Claude Grahame-White In
the Youths Companion. But when
We look ahead, and estimate what
may be possible with a power plant,
not Of hundreds of horse power, but
of thousands, then we can imagine
a perfected war machine, Of the fu-
ture-a huge armored craft, that car
ries a crew of hundreds of men, and
that is equipped with formidable guns
and aerial torpedo and bomb-dropping
tubes. Such a vessel will be able to
reef its wing surface when travelling
at high speed, and will rush through
the air as a speed of several hundred
miles an hour.
But even against such metal-built
monsters of the air, flying at their
amazing speeds, man will pit his in
genuity. 1t is clear that he cannot
fight them from the earth; he must
fight them high in their own element.
So In the future, If wars continue,
we may have fearful struggles of the
air-not small and isolated combats,
such as this campaign has shown us,
but battles desperately waged, with
death and destruction raining from
the clouds. There are those, how
ever, who argue that such a form
of war, when pushed to its ruthless
limit, will prove so CHASTITY that hu-
manity will revolt, and that the sci
ence that revolutionizes war will also
end it.

often better to serve if made the day
before, especially gelatin desserts.
Veal With Sour Cream.-Take a
loin of veal for roasting and lard with
strips of fat salt pork, lay some in the
pan before putting in the meat. Brown
in hot oven or scar over in a hot
pan on top of the stove, dredge with
flour and season and baste freely with
sour cream the first half hour, then
cook slowly. The flour will thicken
the gravy sufficiently and it may be
served either poured around the roast
or in a sauceboat.
Cherry and Grapefruit SaIad.-Cut
the chilled fruit in halves. Take out
the pulp with spoon and dress with
French dressing. The juice of the
grapefruit may be used in the place
of French dressing. Serve on lettuce

half cupful of canned cherries or
maraschino cherries and add to the
grapefruit.

ter, a former mayor of Athens,
now serving an indeterminate sentence
in the penitentiary for embezzlement,
was pardoned by Gtv Willis recently.
The action was TAX IN by the governor
on recommendation of the state board
OF pardons, which declared Slaughter's
irregularities in han Iiling funds was
due mainly to ignorl lnce of the law
Athens citizens had betitoned for elem
ency.
The governor REJECTED the recon-
mendation for Willikm Sullivan of To
ledo, who is serving a sentence for
manslaughter and asked clemency on
the plea that he and his wife made a
suicide contract, that she succeeded in
killing herself, but that he failed.
The pardon board recommended
commutation to Ave years on condition
that Sullivan support his mother and
child. The Judge, prosecutor and war.
den declined to make any recommen-
dation in his case.
Chester Wallace Of Dayton was
given a Communication to release him
soon. He was serving life sentence
for killing man with whom he had
been quarreling.
OF the 10 cases recommended by the
pardon board, the governor acted fa-
Vorably on six, rejected three and ig-
nored one because the prisoner already
had been released on parole. Among
the others granted clemency were:
Walter Schrovenskb serving indeter-
inmate sentence from Harrison for en-
bezzlement, commuted to release at
once; Glenn Selby, serving indetermi-
nate sentence from Knox county for
burglary, commuted to release at once;
Frank Stonerock, serving an indetermi-
nate sentence, Franklin county, COM
muted to release Immediately.
Stonerock's case was brought to the
governors attention after the pardon
board adjourned by penitentiary off
cials, who said he would die in prison
soon if not released.
The governor rejected the recon-
mendation of clemency for William
Smith, serving 10-year sentence from
Athens county for robbery.

Hide Savings In Odd Places.

The woman who, as just revealed

her mothers grave in Forest Hill cem

But there is no saving. The person
who mistrusts savings banks generally
looks around for the most unlikely
spot in which to deposit wealth. and
more than one may hit on the same
idea. Old cannon, for instance, seem
to form favorable repositories. Quite

Florence NlghtIneaIe's Statue.

"The Lady With the Lamp" statue
of Florence Nightingale, has been un-
yelled without ceremonial, in Water
loo place, London. The statue stands
high on a red and gray granite pedes-
tai, and makes notable and an ap-
propriate addition to Waterloo place.
By its side, fully harmonizing with it
in general outline, is that of Sidney
Herbert. The effective background
for both is the Crimean memorial. The
sculptor portrayed his subject in a
sympathetic pose, standing in the vo.
luminous skirt Of the early Victorian
period, with the lamp borne in the
right hand. This statue Of "The Lady
With the Lamp" is the first public
statue of woman in London other
than those of royal ladies'.

on HIS ,WAY. HOME
Passenger Had Cause for Con-
Stant Smile.
IneonVenienees Of Travel Unable to
Affect Him, and Disappointment
in the End Must Have Been
Extreme.

His was the only smiling face on
the train. The other passengers held
on to the gritty, ex-red. plush seats
and prayed that the quaking coach
might not be rent asunder before they
reached the main line. 1t seemed .
forlorn hope, for a brakebeam or some
thing underneath, aided and abetted
by the temperamental track, ham
mered so ferociously at the floor that
dissolution Of both car and occupants
seemed a matter of minutes.
Among the countenances that de-
picted every motion from indignation
to trepidation he smiled. When the
engine came to a wheezy stop on a
side track to let a calmly deliberate
freight train amble by he smiled
When the shades Of night had been

somewhere beyond, he kept on smil.
ing.
He must have felt that such be-
havior called for an explanation, for to
the sufferer across the wobbling aisle
he unburdened himself. He had to ele-
vate his voice several times before 1t
reached the level demanded by branch
line conversation.
Been out five weeks this time," he
impaired, when his vocal chords had
finally bested the brakeman. yep,
been clear to Winnipeg, but I'm going
to be home in the morning"
Then the secret came out.
I'm getting in a day earlier coming
across this way" he confided. Mighty
bum connections tonight, but it's
worth 1t to surprise the wife. You see
the smile became radiant-"this is
my first long trip since I've had one. "
All the rest of the Gathering way,
his smile never faltered. 1t went into
eclipse scarcely ten seconds when the
station agent at the junction point In
formed him that, in spite of what he
may have heard, the train for Kansas
City did not pick up sleeper there.
Yes, it did look as II he would have
to stay up until three o'clock-that is,
1t would be three o'clock If the train
were on time.
In the lunch room, as shrunken as
the oranges in its windows, the smile
came back strong.
Look at that lemon pie" He pointed
decisively, only to grow philosophical
in the next breath. Lemon pie can be
the best or the worst stuff on earth
That looks like the worst. I'll have
the best when l get home. Lord, I'm
sick Of hotel cooking. But just think
I'm going to eat breakfast at home in
the morning"
His smile was undaunted as he wan
dered up the disgruntled street. A dis
pirited picture show and a magazine
honored only for its age, made little
impression on the seven hours Of
waiting. When the train came, ht
smiled sleepily as the Pullman con
ductor gave him all his change in sill
yer. At daylight he was awake. He
hung an eye over the window sill and
viewed complacently the barren land
scape in the dreary dawn.
1t seemed an inordinately long way
from the station home. He bounded up
the front steps and barely nodded to
the next door neighbor who was
sweeping off her front porch.
