muscles lack tone. They become ner-
vous, irritable, despondent, melan-
choly, the brain fags, and the memory
fails. Therefore if you wish to pre-
serve your youthful vim, vigor and vi
tality, to a ripe old age, you must
supply the deficiency of Phosphates
lacking in your food by using Argo-
Phosphate, the form of Phosphates
most easily assimilated.
NOTICE: Argo-Phosphate which is
recommended and prescribed by ply
sicians in all enemic cases, is not a
secret or patent medicine, but one that
is sold and recommended by we'll
known druggists everywhere, and ply
sicians are daily subscribing the con-
stituents contains in it. Being entire
ly unlike many other Phosphates, it is
easily assimilated and will be found
effective in the treatment of indiges-
tion and stomach troubles, as we'll as
for care worn, nervous conditions. The
manufacturers of Argo-Phosphate will
forfeit to any charitable institution
$4,000 if they cannot treat any man
or woman under 65 who lacks Phos-
pilates, and increase their strength and
endurance from 100 per cent. to 300
per cent. or more in one months time,
if they are free from organic trouble.
1t is dispensed by all reliable drug
gists.

CORK COMES HIGH TO GERMANS

Amsterdam, Netherlands, Sept. T.
Cork is at a premium in Germany, as
the country does not produce any and
the Entente blockade has interrupted
all channels of supply. Used corks,
especially those of champagne bottles,
are eagerly purchased and they bring
high prices.
Two chemists of Plauen, Saxony,
have applied for a patent for making
artificial cork from a tough species of
toadstools, which grow in profusion in
the Saxon forests.

ALFONSO'S PLIGHT
King of Spain Has 0verpIayed
His Popularity.
ONCE STOOD WELL WITH ALL.

His Youth, Physical Energy and Gen
uine Interest In Welfare of His coun-
try Made Great Appeal to the Pop
uIar Imagination, but Recent Events
Have Changed Opinion.
Barcelona, Spain.-Five years ago
Spanish republic was but wild dream
in the minds of a few irreconcilable
extremists. The Republican leaders
had no prestige whatever in the coun-
try at large, and their following was
being reduced to mere handful. The
causes of this were. of course, many,
but everybody agreed that among them
the personal influence of the king was
paramount. That young sovereign
seemed to be chosen by fate or Provi-
dence to gather around him all sections
of his people and lead them united to
great destinies. Today things have al
together changed. This is no exagger-
alton. but the naked truth plainly
stated.
A little retrospect Is necessary for
the better understanding of the present

LETTER ovERC0MEs FATHER.
Son He Thought Dead Writes From
Wales Hospital.

Verona. y. J.-Charles B. Garfield of
Hartford place, Caldwell. received let
ter from his son, Harry c. Garfield,
written from hospital at Carnetton,
Wales. Mr.. Garfield received letter
in April from England saying that his
son either had been killed or taken
prisoner in an engagement on the
French front No news had been re-
ceived since that time, and Mr.. Can
field had practically given his son up
as dead.
Mr. Garfield was on ladder paint
ing his house when his daughter told
him the letter had arrived. The father
was so overcome that lie fell from the
ladder He then staggered into the
house. 1t was several minutes before
he could open the letter
In the letter Harry Garfield wrote
that his left arm had been shattered,
that shrapnel wounds in the head had
affected h :, hearing and that his sight
was impaired. The letter said that the
writer was overcome with gas and for
more than three weeks lay unconscious.
He said he had been longing to hear
from home. The writer did not explain
how he had reached Wales. The only
comment by the writer on the war It.
self is contained in two sentences:
THE Germans are bending, but they
will keep it up. What happened In
France is unspeakable."

WILD MAN OF GEORGIA

Says Linguist.

Atlanta, Ga.-A strange, wild, hairy
creature, bearing some semblance OF a
man and some semblance of wild
creature, who was captured on the
banks of the Chattahoochee river by
Sheriff Taylor of Heard county, has
been brought to Atlanta and turned
over to the federal authorities, but they
have no use for him and do not want
him, and 1t looks as If Sheriff Taylor
will have to take him back and feed
him at the expense of Heard county.
So far as Atlanta's leading linguists
can discover, he speaks no language.
Or. f. e. May, the French consul, who
is able to converse In most of the civ
llized tongues. has tried him out with
no success.
"He understands nothing speak; he
speaks nothing I understand says DR..
May.
The stranger is little and bent and
carries a cane. His head and face are
matted with hair He looks like wild
man, but he appears to be perfectly
harmless.
"The government doesn't want him,
| don't want him. and he won't run
rabbits, so what am l going to do with
him?" asks Sheriff Taylor.

PRESIDENT BEARS HIS
WAR WORRIES WELL
Takes Mild Exercise and Reads
Detective Stories For Diversion.

Washington.-If you have pictured
President Wilson careworn, haggard
and breaking under the strain of his
tremendous war problems, change the
portrait. It's wrong.
On one of bis unannounced strolls
from the White House to Secretary
Bakers office in the state, war and
navy building he gave press men an
opportunity of good closeup of
Woodrow Wilson in war mood.
Swinging out from Secretary Bakers
room and down the tiled corridor, the
president had more the manner of a
man who had just concluded a pleas
ant chat with an old crony about moth
ing In particular than of nations
leader who had just discussed a vital
world problem.
Clad In snowy linen coat and trou-
sers, a fat topped, broad brimmed
straw hat set squarely on his head, the
president moved at brisk pace toward
the stairway. There was spring in his
step. His smile was genial. his cheeks
rudy with the glow of health.
Realizing the vital Importance Of
keeping himself fit. the president is
exceedingly careful to play with his
work. Early every morning. long be-
fore most Washingtonians are so much
as turning over for their pre- getting up
nap, the president is out In his knick-
erbockers and off around the golf
course. Mrs. Wilson usually accompa-
nies him.
Golf, walking and other mild forms
of exercise take care of the presidents
physical health. For mental diversion
and rest he turns from the problems of
war to intricate, complex and quite
thrilling detective stories.

GERMAN USE OF POLICE DOGS.
Story of Their Value In Detection and
Capture of Food Smugglers.

Capture of Food Smug9iers.
Berlin, via London. Germany's
trained police dogs are proving of value
In running down violators of the food
laws. Near Berlin the dogs located a
man who had been pilfering from vege-
table patches of truck gardeners, lead
ing officials to the house where the
stolen vegetables were hidden.
In Munich a constable attempted to
seize a man caught with fifty pounds
Of meat from an illegal slaughter
house. The man escaped, leaving the
burden behind, but was tracked to
hayloft by police dogs. When the OIL
Ger returned Ito the spot where the
meat was left he found the meat gone.
The police dogs were again summoned
and located 1t In a house where it had
been hidden by a woman. When
brought to court the meat Spectator
pleaded he was without funds. The
court was inclined to doubt the story
and, suspecting the meat smuggler had
hidden his purse In the hayloft, again
requisitioned the police dogs, which
found the mans pocketbook well filled
with currency hidden in the hay.

situation As soon as he was able to
move about unfettered King Alfonso
appeared and to certain extent proved
himself TO be a ruler with an open
mind, keen perception of realities. a
genuine interest i'll the welfare of the
country and an earnest desire to pro-
mote it by all means In his power. His
youth and physical energy appealed to
the popular imagination as symbols of
hope and power. but his achievements
as a polo player and crack shot and
his undeniable qualities as an all round
sportsman were perhaps more praised
abroad than appreciated at home.
The high water mark of popularity
was reached when, two years before
the breaking out of the war, King Al
fonso called to counsel several promi-
nent men of the Spanish political Left
Among other representative PERSONAL
ties there went to the royal palace Pro
fessor Azcarate. Although no publicity
was given TO the interviews, both these
men admitted privately that the king

move the right wing of the Republican
party detached itself from the old fold
made clear its acceptance Of the mo-
narchical regime and formed new pc
litical party, which was styled the Re-
formist party. Everything then seemed
to point toward a future of close CO.
operation and understanding between
the crown and the democracy.
The king, however, if not unwilling
was at any rate unable TO follow
energeticslly the path of liberalism and
reform, and as far back as three years
ago the disappointment of the Spanish
people had already begun. Then came
the war and the sharp division of the
country into pro-Germans and pro-al
lies The king was credited with pro-
ally leanings. He devoted himself to
the relief of prisoners of war of all ma
tionallties and did very good work.
particularly In locating prisoners be
lieved to have been killed. He has
been in personal communication with
thousands of families In all belligerent
countries. But when all is said it must
be recognized that kind heartedness and
willingness to oblige are poor substi
tutes for craftsmanship
