The secret of keeping young is to feel young-to do this you must watch your liver and bowels-there's no need of having a sallow complexion-dark rings under your eyes-pimples-a bil- ious look in your face-dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inactive bowels and liver.

MORE MONEY NEEDED FOR K. R, VALUATION
Prouty to Ask Congress for
 $3,5OO,O0O for Work

Washington, Nev. 29.-Congress will be asked for another $3,5O0,0OO appropriation for physical valuation of interstate railroads, with a view to completion of all field operations in three years for from next January and wind up of all the work year later, Charles A. Proutk, director of physical valuation, announced today. MT. Prouty said the total cost will be kept within the original estimate of $15, 5,o00,00O to $2o,ooo,0oO
 Valuation experts are at work in various parts of the country. Work has been completed on the Boston and Maine, Rock Island and Pere Mar uuette, the Union Pacific lines west of Salt Lake City, and the Southern Pacific except it's New Mexico and Texas lines, and is nearly finished on the New Haven, Great Northern and Illinois Central. Work is well ad- vanced on the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburgh and is progressing on it's lines east of Pittsburgh, the Santa Fe, Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul and other roads.
 Valuations of the big transcontinen- tai lines will be delayed until the in- terstate commerce commission, of which the valuation service is a part. passes upon questions relating to over- head charges, allowances for con- tingencies, interest during construc- tion work, what constitutes reasonable prices, and other elements Of value When these are determined the re-
 ports will be expedited, each road being allowed thirty days to make pro- test and present agreements before 1 final establishment of valuation.
 No hearings are likely before the ! end of January. It is expected that
 the Great Northern and Rock Islan d I will be the first of the more impor- l tant lines to be reported upon.

BgI thEa I1gWS ABANDONED AUTO AT MOTIFS CORNER
Left in Yard, Unclaimed, Since
 Last Sunday Morning
TEACHERS GIVEN CHECKS
Special Exercises at the Churches To- morrow-Aco-ns to Play Majors for State ChampionshiE--For Dance Tonight.

Who owns this auto? That's the question that has been asked by 9 great many who have noticed an abandoned car standing in yard a. car has been standing in the yard and no one has come to claim it. The be- Ilef about town is that the car was stolen by joyriders and abandoned. The numbers are still on the car but do not appear in the registration book, as they have been looked up in an endeavor to locate the owner. From indications the car was left sometime Saturday night and no one took any notice of the matter until today when the authorities were noti- ..faed. From all indications the ma- chine is in good running condition and there was apparently no reason for it's being left unless the supply of gaso- line ran short. If the car is a stolen one it was probably taken Saturday in New Haven when cars of every make and description were left on the street while their owners attended the football game.
 Teachers Receive Checks.
 Now that the local school teachers have received their checks their. thoughts have turned to home for the Thanksgiving recess. There were no special exercises held in the schools today with the exception of the lower rgrades where the little tots were told the meaning of the holiday. The teachers were busy after school hours putting things in shape for over the recess which will last until next Tuesday morning.

The Man on the Bank

Brouillard. walking out of ME- Cort-

cidence that he found Cashier appar-
emily waiting for him on the sidewalk.
Once more you are just the man
have been wanting to see," the young
missionary began, promptly making
use OF the chance meeting. May
break in with bit of bad news?"
There is no such thing as good
news in this God-forsaken valley. Cast
ner. What's your grief?"
There is trouble threatening for
the Cortwrights. Stephen Massingale
is out and about again. and | was told
this morning that he was filing him

for the man who shot him"
Brouillard nodded unsympathetic-
ally.

We'll, l might say that have made
you what you are, and"
That's true; the truest thing you
ever said," snapped Brouillard.
And, was going to add, l can IN
make you just as easily. But l don't
want to be savage with you. All I'm
asking is little information first, and
little tudicious help afterward. What
are your orders from the department?
Brouillard got up and stood over the
stocky man in the Office chair, with the
black eyes blazing.
Mr.. Cartwright, said moment ago
that you have made me what | am,
and you have. am infinitely worse
man than you are, because know bet
ter and you don't. 1t is no excuse for
me that have had a motive which
haven't explained to you, because, as
once told you, you couldn't understand
it in a thousand years. The evil has
been done and the consequences, to
you, to me, and to everyone in this
cursed valley are certain. Facing them
as l am obliged tc face them, am tell
ing you-but what's the use? You
can't make tool of me any longer
that's all. You must cook your meat
over your own fire. I'm out of it"
Il can smash you" said the man in
the chair, quite without heat.
mo, you can't even do that" was
the equally cool retort. mo mans
fate is in another mans hands"
He was moving toward the door, but
Cartwright stopped him.
"One more word before you go,
Brouillard. 1t is to be war between us
from this on?'
Il don't say that. It would be awk-
ward for us both now. Let is be
armed neutrality if you like. Don't in
terfere with me and l won't interfere
with you"
All" said the millionaire. NOW
you have brought it around to the
point was trying to reach. You don't
want to have anything more to do
with me, but you are not quite ready
to cash in and pull out of the game.
How much money have you got?"
The cool impudence of the question
brought a dull flush to the young mans
face, but he would give the enemy no
advantage in the matter Of superior
self-control.
'"rhat is scarcely fair question
even between armed neutrals," he OBJ
jected. why do you want to know?"
I'm asking because you have just
proposed the noninterference policy,

mean to live up to it. A little while
