CURES FOR BURIED FOOT

Ellis Stopford. a business man of
Darby, Pa, for three weeks has been
suffering pain in his left foot, al
through he lost that left leg at the
hip nearly 40 years ago, has received
nearly dozen letters from various
parts of the country expressing SYM
pathy and suggesting cures.
One writer. from Pearl, ILL.,, sug-
gested that the amputated limb be
disinterred and Strengthened. An
other suggested that the heel be plac-
ed on a soft piece of raw cotton, and
other writer's made similar suggest
ions.
All seemed to forget, however,
that after nearly 40 years, there
would be nothing left of the leg, and
none considered the fact that 1t
necessitated a trip to England, where
Mr.. Stopford lived when he lost his
leg.
Stopford declares the pain at times
is so realistic that he has reached
down to sooth the foot, which has
been missing nearly two-more years

NOEL new VICTIM
OF VlLLISCA CASE
Ssuicide Apparently Due to Financial
Entanglements and Relations
With WilkersOp

That j. w. Noel, Villisca photog-
rapher and one of the star witnesses
in the Wilkerson-Jones Islander suit
at Red Oak last winter was driven to
suicide because of financial troubles
due to his connection with the Wiki
erson activities in Montgomery coun-
ty is indicated by testimony intro
duced at the inquest into the death
of Noel, the inquest found him dead
at Abba with a bullet in his head.
The death of Noel adds one more
victim to the list of those murdered
at Villisca, for everything points to
the fact that his espousal of the Wiki
erson cause resulted in the ruin of
his business and his suicide
The evidence at the cOroner's in
quest shows that Noel had been en-
gagged in the last year or so in attend
ing the Wilkerson meetings and in
collecting money for the Wilkerson
propaganda. Noel had forged a note
for $4,000. He had been asked to
straighten 1t up. He then concocted
fake story about finding a railroad
tie chained to one of the tracks of
the Burlington road near Nodaway
Ia. at the end of a high bridge for
the purpose of wrecking train.
The story was cotton up for the pur-
pose of trying to secure reward
from the Burlington road.
There was found in Mr.. Noels
pocket at the time of his death a
typewriter statement of what his
testimony was to be in the Jones'
Wilkerson Islander case and in the
Kelly case, and went into detail con-
corning the things he was to say.
The evidence revealed the fact that
Noel, after collecting this Wilker-
son money was accused by Joe Still
niger and other of having not turned
in all the money he had collected
Noel succeeded in getting Mr.. j. w
Willett and Ed Peterson to indorse
two notes for him, one for 81 900 and
one for 81 100. to enable Noal to hor-
row money at the Red Oak banks.
AS security he executed a bill of
sale to Willett on the studio in Will
isca, Willet agreed not to put this
mortgage on record. While the
mortgage was thus being held, Noel
sold the property which had been
mortgaged and the purchaser exc
cuted an additional mortgage. Noel
also, for additional security, delivered
to Petersen and Willett a note for
$4,000, purporting to be executed by
a man by the name of Gordon at
Greenfield, Ia. The $4,000 note was
forgery.
Noel also claimed to have had a
car stolen about Sept. /, with insur-
ance of 81 1850 on it. and he assigned
this insurance policy to Willett and
Petersen. The Insurance. company
claimed that the car was not stolen,
and that the story of Noel's was
fake. The parties interested had
given Noel until Wednesday. Oct. 81,
to straighten up with them. That
was the night on which he committed
suicide

Speeds Up the
Hogs Growth
Anti-ChOleric Hog Remedy Proving
Worth to Iowa Hog Raisers as
Means of Producing Bigger
and Heavier Hogs
PREVENTS HOG CHOLERA, TOO

Hog raisers all through Iowa
worth of Anti-Cholera Hog Remedy
as a means for raising bigger,
healthier, and heavier hogs" says
Mr.. p. B. Gravely, who is engaged
in directing the distribution of the
remedy throughout Iowa.
1T is proving to those who use
it that it not only speeds up the hogs
growth, but also aids their digestion
purifies the hogs blood, relieves con-
stipation, drives out intestinal
worms, increases appetite, and ac-
ually prevents hog cholera"
"If your hogs are stunted, won't
eat, hair is turned the wrong way,
or show other signs of cholera, just
mix Anti-Choleric Hog Remedy with
their food. In few days you'll see
the results in well, happy, and
healthy hogs"
A ti-Choleric Hog Remedy is not
food. 1t is a medicine produced
after years of study and research
work to keep the hog we'll and
healthy. That it does the work is
proven by the fact that it has been
staple remedy with the breeders
in the famous Virginia ham section
and is now being adopted by Iowa
hog raisers.
Just get a dollar package, con-
tanning one hundred doses and try
it on three or five of your hogs.
You'll never want to be without it
in the future. Anti-Choleric is sold

THE BLOW THAT HURT

Congress probably will not expel
"a Toilette. But if it should, even
that disgrace could not add ma
terially of the hurt that the errine
senator feels today His own boy
is ashamed of him.
In outsopken language, yet crouch
ed in words which show the filial re-
spect of well trained son, Robert
La Toilette, Jr., thru a college chum,
has let his country know he is OPP
posed to his fathers attitude on the
war. He seems puzzled, shocked
and unable to comprehend his
fathers speeches and actions. To
clear the family name, the boy has
announced he will join the fighting
forces.
All the pricks from the pens of a
nations force of men trained to WELD
the scourges of sarcasm have not
made the Wisconsin Senator
finch. His armor seems inpenetra-
table. But La Toilette, even tho he
may be a copperhead, is only father
after all. In the loss of his sons
confidence, and to a certain extent
the boys respect, he has given up
more than all the honors of state
craft could have brought him. Per-
haps, in his secret sorrow, Shake
speare's lines to sons pass thru his
mind:
To you your father should be as
a god;
One that composed your beauties,
yea. and one,
To whom you are but as form in
wax,
By him imprinted and within his
power.
To leave the figure or disfigure it.
La Toilette knows he is an idol
fallen from its pedestal in the eyes
of his own son. Nothing he may do
can regain in whole the place he once
held in his boys affections. And in
the senator's breast there must be an
ache, hurt for which there is no
balm.-Sioux City Tribune.

on arriving the boys had not re-
turned. Vera determined to start out
alone to a spot they had not visited.
She remembered a little rocky cove
further down the shore on the main
land. She put a light on the boat
and started out. Nearing the place
she heard a welI-knOwn voice raised
in a cry of distress. A sOTTier, more
fOrlOTn pair of pirates were never
seen. They had clambeTed along the
rocks to an isolated point and the
rising tide had cut them off from the
shore just as they had concluded to
try to swim for safety. Birch Parks
had fallen on the slippery rocks and
either broken or put out Of joint a
bone in his ankle 1t was so badly
swollen Vera could not tell. With
the help of Teddy he was lifted into
the boat, grOaning with pain
No one seemed to be at hand when
they landed, and, the Carr home be-
ing nearest, they carried him to the
house and hastily informed the Parks
family.
AS soon as possible a car appeared
with Jerry and his distracted mother.
After the first meeting with her boy
she stopped and stared at Mrs. Carr.
Mabel Thurston!" she cried. And
here you've been living right near
me and / didn't know it!' And she
flew at the little woman and Rugged
her.
When Jerry and Vera came back
from their wedding tour they
brought gold watches to Birch and
Teddy.

rates" they said, I'VE wouldn't have

ANSWER TO AGE-OLD QUESTION FOUND
 IN NATURE
Birmingham Man Ready to
 NOugh For This Little Story.

How long must 1 endure this? Is there no possible way to get any per manent relief? For years l ask. l myself this question and I presume every other sufferer from indigestion has asked it over and over.
 "I had indigestion so badly that could not eat anything without the greatest pain and distress. 1 simply had to work but I was not fit to work. I just dragged along suffering always and it seemed as though there would never be any relief for me.
 Then l heard of that most blessed remedy Sulferre-Sol, and got bottle. It gave me relief at once and now my trouble is completely gone. As for eating, I think it now takes more to feed me than anyone else in town. I never have any more trouble with my stomach and how I do enjoy my food. There are no words too strong for me to say in favor of Sulferro-Sol for I fully believe it is the greatest remedy for indigestion that can be found any where"
 Your druggist will tell you that Sulferro-Sol is the most dependable remedy that he sells. It is worthy of your greatest faith. It never fails
 Sulferro-Sol is sold and recom- mended by the Hesterly Drug Store. They will gladly tell you of its great healing and building powers.
