Hobart BOswOrth.

No actor in moving pictures to-
day, it can safely be said, has
had the wonderfully varied ex-
perience enjoyed by Hobart Bos-
worth. Mr.. Bosworth, when a
boy, ran away from home and
sailed the Pacific Ocean for sew
eral years before the mast. Later
he became a beach wanderer, and
in many respects his career at
this stage paralleled Jack Lon
don's, in that he rubbed should
ers with the riff raft of two
hemispheres in the underworld
of San Francisco. The life hard.
ened Bosworth's muscles, for he
lived an exemplary life, and al
the age of 20 he was known as
the best amateur catch-as-catch
can wrestler and fighter on the
coast. Bosworth is several in.
ches taller than six feet, and his
huge frame has carried hin
through illnesses which would
l.
have carried off many a less sub
s%tantially built man. Soon afte-
his prize-ring career closed, Bos
worth went on the road with
theatrical company.
Mr.. Bosworth says: 81 low

it over.

years from stomach and indi-

Gas seemed to always form in
my stomach after eating, and

to feel bloated and very uncom-
Portable. l had dieted myself
time and time again, but this
did not give me much relief.
Now after taking two bottles
of Tanlac, l can truthfully say
that my condition has improved
in every way. My appetite is
something fine, and l want to
eat all the time. / have not suf-
fered with my stomach since
shortly after l started taking

Her Ring of Death Miss Bara's
Ornament.

OTHdItSAibs
The millions of admirers Of
panther-like Theda Bara,
William Fox's Vampire Woman,
and Carmen in his amazingly
elaborate screen presentation Of
the gypsy romance, have often
wondered just what sort Of a
ring was the odd-looking Orna-
ment that she wears on the long
slender index finger of her left
hand. 1t is of a distinctly out
of thee-ordinary type-a bit Of
iewelry that one feels instinct
lively must have a history-and
and it has.
The story of the Vampires
ring-the only ornament worn
by the woman has made a world
wide reputation portraying the
type of siren who drains a mans
heart to its last drop, wrecks his
life and ends by gloating over his
dead body-is a romantic one
and dates back to the days when
she was leading woman Of the
famous Theatre Antoine in Paris.
The ring was presented to her by
Datas Singht, a Hindu rajah who
was furiously smitten with her
exotic charms. The huge UNI
wrought emerald which COM
poses the most striking feature
of the ring is hollow and once
contained a deadly East lndiar
poison. She told the story Of
the ring recently at a dinner
party given in her honor by The
National Arts Club of New York
}. It was as gruesome as might b.
expected from the lips Of Th'
I Vampire.
q A young French count desper
ately jealous of the Hindu raial
: who gave her the ring learned it
IS secret. One night he entered he
dressing room at the Antoine an
Ie while she was showing him tn
a secret spring by which the poi
il son that the hollow emerald cor
l ,S tanned was released, he suddenl
IS seized the ring, placed the glow
" ing green gem to his lips an

STOCK PARADE SHOWS
L OF GOOD SIRES
M. U. Exhibits Herd of Prize
Winners Developed From a
Few Good Individuals.

Probably no parade IN the
world has ever represented so
many prize-winning and state
and world-record animals bred
by one educational institution as
that seen by Farmers Week
visitors at the College of Agri-
culture of the University of Mis-
souri, at Columbia last week.
The parade was to show that
what the College of Agriculture
has done, with a few good ami
mails, any individual breeder of
moderate means may do. The
entire Hampshire flock, for ex-
ample, was bred from three
Hampshire ewes, and the Hol-
stein herd, one of the finest in
the country, was descended from
three cows purchased for about
$500 in 1902. This herd now in
cludes thirty-six COWS that
could not be replaced for $1O,-
900 and that have produced sur
plus stock, which sold for $6,218
in cash, while the milk more than
supported the herd.
The parade was led by Honor
able, the imported Percheron
stallion-a sire Of many prize
winners,-followed by sixteen
other draft horses. Among
these was Josephine 32,564 and
three of her foals which are
owned by the College of Agricul-
ture. Three others have been
sold for $1,000.
Among the dairy COWS was
Grace Briggs, probably the hold
er of the worlds long-distance
record. So far as is known, no
other COW has ever equalled her
production of nearly $4,000
pounds of milk and 5000 pounds
of butter in sixteen years that
she has been in milk. She was
/, bred by the dairy department OF
the college.
With the exception of one ami
NAL, all the Hereford cattle in
the parade were those raised or
; the University farm. The larg.
er part of the herd is descended
from two cows purchased il
1904.
Among the sheep, the mos.
striking lesson was in the ex
= hibit of the different crosses o.
a medium-priced pure-bred ran
and great western ewes. TIL,
! daughters and granddaughter
of the typical, ninety-poun'
western ewes looked so mucl
like the pure-bred sheep that il
many cases they could hardly b
j. distinguished.
e The entire parade was design
d ed to show the value Of goo.
sires on the stock farm.

Why Schools" Are Not in Harmony
AS you seem to take a broad, liberal
view Of the healing art, says Francis. I
would like to ask you why the various
schools of healing do not harmonize. why
the medical men sneer at the chiroprac-
tors, for instance?
Answer-There Is only one reason that
we know OF to explain any gulf between
the schools. 1t is this: The art of heal
ing isn't born in man, nor is 1t in
herited 1t is acquired by hard study.
The State fixes minimum standard of
educational preparation for physicians.
All the medical men ask is that no short
, cuts be opened for uneducated or half
educated practitioners, Let all schools
be admitted to practice on equal terms,
