Some OF the most thrilling adven-
lures OF the wild west occurred in the
life of Buffalo Bill" who died yester-
day in Denver.
AS pony express rider, buffalo hunt.
er, government scout and all.round
wild west adventurer, Col. William
F. Cody has furnished host of hair
raising stories In which he found his
life in danger.
Here are some Of his adventures:
Buffalo Bill and Scotty, his compan.
ion, were leading a mule team home
with buffalo they had killed near the
Saline river, Ark, in 1868, when a
band of Indians surprised them. They
had previously planned Just what to
do in case Of such a surprise, so they
acted instantly.
All the buffalo carcasses were taken
out of the wagon and banked around
the back wheels.
Bill and Scotty lay down behind the
dead buffalo under the wagon, and
when the Indians got near enough,
fired.
The Indians began circling about
drawing their circle closer. An hour
passed. Bits horse apd the mules
had been killed, while the two men
had brought down five Indians.
Firing from beneath the wagon had
almost stopped, for ammunition was
giving out and the penned.up men
carefully chose their victims. The In
dians were so feet away and ready
for their last dash, when cavalry came
up from a nearbEpost, and the Indians
fled.
At another time, Buffalo Bill was
riding home alone one night with
sage hens he had killed, when he
struck rendezvous OF horse thieves.
1t was too late for him to leave with
out being seen, so he planned to de-
ceive them.
The gunner wanted his horse, which
Bill had left down the road. Two
went with him. Returning, Bill drop
ped one of his sage hens and asked
the man beside him to pick it up. AS
the gunman stopped. Bill knocked him
senseless with the built of his revol.
YER.
At the same instant Bill wheeled
about just in time to drop the other
gunman before he could draw his re-
volver. Bill jumped on his horse and
was off, with the rest of the gang OF.
foot behind him.
The road was too rocky for the
horse, so Bill got OFF, sent his horse

MAKING IT P[AIN

The Pure Food and Drug Laws aim
to protect the public by preventing
mis.statements on the labels of prepa.
rations but some people continue to
accept "extracts" of cod LIvers think
ing they will get the benefits of an
emulsion of cod liver oil.
The difference Is very great. An
"emulsion" contains real cod Lfvey oil,
which has had the hearty endorse
ment of the medical profession for
many years, while an "extract" is a
product which contains no OF and Is
highly alcoholic.
SCOTS Emulsion guarantees the high
est grade of real Norwegian cod Eivey OH,
skiltully blended with glycerine and
hypophosphites. SCOTS Is free from the
false stimulation of alcohol and Is en-
dorsed by good physicians everywhere.

HOW TO DRY UP A CORN

You corn.pestered men and women

pain.
A quarter of an ounce of freezone
costs vefy little at any drug store, but
is sufficient to take off every hard or

tried, as it is inexpensive and is said
not to inflame or even irritate the sur.

Lieut.. Gen. Phil Sheridan and Gener-
ais Crook, Custer, Merritt, Carr, Roy
al, Miles, Dodge and others and Sc
cured his appointment as chief of
scouts in the United States army dur
ing its numerous Indian campaigns
in the west.
His career in this line identified
him with the great fighting epoch be-
tween the red man and the white
waged by Gen. Sheridan after the
Civil War that temporarily ended in
1875, but was effectively finished in
the Ghost Dance war in the decisive
battle of Wounded Knee in 189O-91
campaign with the Northern Sioux.
During the construction of the I'm
ion Pacific railroad young Cody at
tached himself to a camp of United
States troops protecting the laborers
and won his sobriquet of Buffalo
Bill by taking contract to supply
the entire force with fresh buffalo
meat for certain period, killing un-
der one contract $3.50 buffaloes. On
one occasion he killed the noted
Cheyenne Chief Yellow Hand in the
presence of Indians and troops.
He became known to juvenile
America in the stories of western adj
venture written by f. z. C. Judson,
who wrote under the nom de plume
of Ned Buntline.
With the advance of civilization,
finding his occupation on the plans
gone. he went on the stage, where he
remained several years playing lead
ing parts in dramas depicting life on
the frontier. Later in association
with Nate Salisbury, he organized his
wild west show with which he toured
this country for many years and on
one occasion visited the principal
capitals of Europe, where he was
warmly received and entertained by
royalty.
He was elected to the Nebraska
legislature in 1872.

ried to Miss Louisa Frederick.

down u steep hill and climbed up the
opposite direction. From an advan.
tageons position he watched the gun.
men follow the stray horse down the
hill, and Bill felt safe again.
Buffalo Bill was at another time
chased by a band OF Indians, bullets
whizzing past him. AT intervals he
turned and let "Lucretia" (name he
gave his rifle) at them. He aimed
slowly and dropped the leader every
time. A detachment oil soldiers saved
him.
AS government scout Buffalo Bill
went long journeys and ran gauntlets
of Indians, always coming out victori.

Col. William f. Cody, Buffalo
Bill" hunter, soldier, scout and
Snowman, was for many years known
to nearly every man, woman, boy and
girl in America through his wild west
show with which he toured this coun-
try and Europe. He was pictur-
esque type of the pioneer frontiers
man and lived to see large cities built
where he once hunted buffalo and
fought Indians.
Col. William +. Cody was born in
Scott county, Iowa, February 26,
1916. His ancestral stock was Span
ish, English and Irish. His parents
moved west and took up a claim near
Leavensworth, Kansas, then from
tier Indian post, when Cody was five
years old. AT ten years of age he
found himself the head of the family
owing to the death of his father, who
was killed in an encounter growing
out of a dispute over the negro slave
question. Young Cody's first employ
ment was as courier between the
freight wagon trains operated be-
tween the Missouri river and the
Rocky Mountains. In turn he became
wagon master, trapper, hunter, pony
express rider and stage coach driver,
all giving varied experience in a
school, the graduation from which
left the scholar an adept in every
possible line of frontier activity.
An exciting experience in the I'm
ion army as a soldier and subsequent
~ as confident and scout of his
commanders in the desultory and
guerilla warfare of the southwest left
him at its finish well known as an all
around frontiersman, competent to
advise, to guide and to lead. These
qualities soon brought him to the at
tention of such distinguished COM
manders as Gen. W. T. Sherman,
