CHEETAHS USED FOR HUNTERS,

mals-combine Speed, Courage
and Stalking Ability.

The fastest animal on four legs is
SAID to be the cheetah or hunting leop-
ard, which is part of the establish
ment Of many an Indian noble.
Inc cheetah is a tall, rangy spotted
cat as large as the America puma and
is the only one of the large cats which
mas been domesticated so that it may
De controlled in the open field by the
voice of man.
Ihis hunting cat is a wonderful COM
Dlnation of speed, courage and stalk

or hunting with the cheetah as a sport
is that the cheetah does everything
and has all the fun.
Any traveller who visits an Indian
potentate in the excellent hunting re;
gions along the foothills of the Hlma,

some sort of deer. Then the cheetah

an elaborate stalk to approach and kill
the deer or if it is close to make one

surprise, will turn and catch the
springing cat upon his horns, thus

HE BELIEVES IN PUBLICITY
Dutiful Husband Assists Wife in Re-

A small, rather timid-looking man

pealing look.
"Yes, sir" cheerfully replied the

Oil the Skin Also.

In describing the means by which
the Hawaiians, before contact with
civilized peoples brought about the
deterioration of this splendid race,
kept their skins in healthy condition,
V. MacClaughey says in the Scientific
Monthly that they not only bathed
daily in the sea and in fresh water,
but oiled their bodies with coconut
oil.
Commenting on this latter practice,
the Journal of the American Medical
Association says the effectiveness of
bathing is well recognized today, "but
we fail to realize the unquestiOnable
merit In the injunctions with oil that
undoubtedly confer a suppleness and
pliancy to the skin quite contrary to
the extreme detergent action Of the
water bath. 1t is not without hygieniC
significance that the skin is normally
fabricated by a subaceous secretion
which the bath tends to remove, OTTER
to a degree no longer compatible will
a perfect epidermis." =.

Has Never Been Captured.

Throughout the little kingdom OF
Liechtenstein, which lies between
Switzerland and Austria, are many
shrines, little crosses, and crumbling
castles. One of the latter, beside the
village Of Balzers, has stood 1000 years
and never has been captured. The
Swiss tried to take it in 1899
from its baron. Overlooking the Rhine,
the ruins recall the days when
robber barons extracted a tariff from
every boat which passed in front
of their domains. Most Of the inhabit-
ants are farmers. They grow flax,
maize, apples, pears, plums, and vege-
tables. Liechtenstein practically ex-
lists on its own bread, cheese, milk,
honey and wine. Cattle Craze on its
fertile meadows and the frs Of the
mountains furnish wood for heat.

The Elephant.

Nature supplies elephants with
tusks |as weapons for defense as well
as for uprooting trees in search for
food. Their small eyes are supplied
with a nictitating film to rid them of
dirt and small flies. They take mud
baths to stand off the sun at its hot
test as we'll as to keep off the many
small insects which annoy them. Ma
ture also provides number of small
birds which stay on them continually
living on the small flies and other in
sects found on their backs"
The elephants only equal in combat
Is the rhinoceros, but neither Is usu
ally belllgerently inclined toward the

emy is the human ivory hunter.

Sugar Beet Growers Organize

At a meeting of the growers Of
sugar beets in the Lamar territory
last Saturday it was decided to or
ganize and settle all questions in re-
gard to next years operations as
body. A large number of growers
were present and after organizing
elected board of directors consisting
of W. A. Mcpherson, M. f. Snider,
w. H. Carl. Don Lamson and o. H.
Lubbers. The Lamar territory raised
a large acreage of beets the past year
and the crop proved very profitable.
The American Beet Sugar Co. when
the market for the sugar product
proved so satisfactory voluntarily paid
an advance over the contract price
which amounted to $4,000 for the
farmers, and also paid a bonus to
their employees over the agreed
wags. 1t is blieved that there will be
little trouble under these circum-
stances about the growers and the
company getting together on a new
contract

The business of the Lamar land Of
flee is still heavy though falling off
from the big rush of the first two
weeks of January. Over five hundred
homestead filings either Of $40 acres
or additional 800 acre filings have
been made, and nearly one hundred
contests have been filed. The land
office has now taken on the appear
ance of regular court as the con-
test room is now filled daily with
parties to the various contests and
their attorneys and witnesses. Many
of the cases are vigorously contested
and the costs to the parties are much
more than the land was considered
worth a few years ago.

How to Master
the Machinery
of the Body
(By N. B. Cook, M. d.


The machinery of the body needs
to be oiled, kept in good condition
Just as the automobile or bicycle.
Why should the human neglect his
own machinery more than that Of
his horse or his engine? Yet most
PEOPLE do neglect themselves. Their
tongue has dark brown color, skin
sallow, breath bad, yet they fail to
see that their machinery needs atten-
ton. Everybody should take mild
laxative at least once a week. A
pleasant way to clear the tongue and
the highly colored water noticed in
the morning is to take a laxative
which will cure the inactive liver
and biliousness-
A pleasant vegetable pill Is made
up of May-apple. leaves Of aloe, and
jalep, made into a tiny pellet and
coated with sugar. First put up bv
DR.. Pierce nearly SO years ago. Drug
gists sell these vegetable pellets in
vials-simply ask for DR.. Pierce's

has caused rheumatism, govt or
sciatica, If you suspect that you have
kidney or bladder trouble, write DR.
Pierce, at 1nvalids' Hotel, Buffalo
N. Y, send sample Of urine, and
describe symptoms. A physician and
chemist will examine it without
charge and you will be under nc
obligation whatever. DR.. Pierce's
Anuric tablets cannot fail to hell
you, because their action f1ushes the
kidneys of impurities and putt
strength into them.

In all weathers the skin and COM
plexion can be kept wonderfully
clear, soft and white by the use of
this inexpensive lemon lotion which
any girl or woman can easily pre-
pare.
The juice Of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing
three ounces of orchard white makes
a whole quarter pint of the most re-
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for
small jar of the ordinary cold
creams. Care should be taken to
strain the lemon juice through fine
cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then
this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that
lemon juice is used to bleach and
remove such blemishes as freckles,
sallowness and tan, and is the ideal
skin softener, smoothener and
beautifer.
Just try It! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and
make up a quarter pint Of this
sweetly fragrant lemon lotion 1t
naturally should help to soften,
freshen, bleach and bring out the
roses and hidden beauty Of any
skin. Those who will make 1t a
habit to gently massage this lotion
into the face, neck, arms and hands
once or twice daily may be repaid
with a skin that is flexible and young
! looking and a peach-like complexion
