PLENTY OF PROOF
From People You Know-From Glen
wood Springs Citizens

The greatest skeptic can hardly fail
to be convinced by evidence like this.
It is impossible to produce better proof
of merit than the testimony Of resi-
dents of Glenwood Springs, of peole
who can be seen at any time. Read the
following case of it:
F. j. Malaby, lineman, $50 Pitkin
Ave, Glenwood Springs, says: 81
recommend Doan s Kidney Pills because
/ found them fine remedy for kidney
trouble. My back and limbs were sore
and stiff, especially when l got up in
the morning. I heard about Doan IS
Kidney Pills and started taking them.
/ was rid of backache and soreness in
my limbs in a very short time. l take
Doan's Kidney Pills now, whenever l
feel any sign of that trouble and they
always give me the desired relief"
Price 60c at all dealers. Don It

Salt Lake City, Utah, Oct. 7.-The
Mormon church today announced that
$250,000 of the tithing funds of the Or
ganization will he used for the pur-
chase Of Liberty Bonds. This is the
first time in the history of the Mormon
church that the tithe funds have ever
been diverted for purposes outside the

Twelve thousand Latter Day Saints
raised their right hands in the tabor,
nacle this afternoon when the an
nouncement was made and approved
the action of head of the church. At
the morning session of the conference
Presiding Bishop C.. W. Nibley gave
effective promotion to the Liberty bond
campaign when he said:
"Don t let your husbands separate e
themselves from their money for some
think they know nothing about. If yor
have any surplus money and many of
you will have it in these times of pros
perity, buy a Liberty bond. On that
you cannot lose. 1t is good for all
time.'
Bishop Nibley had himself previous
ly subscribed 100000.

FIGHTING IN A TANK-OLD
SQUASH 'EM FLAT

In Belgium, Sept TO-, 1917
Dear NJ:
Your letter found me in hospital and
was most delightful company. My
trouble is not much, just bullet
through fleshy part of right forearm
and a Craze in the side, and I am up
and about and going back to my lot in
day or two. We were an active part
in the great drama of the 18th, and
what with the bursting mine-earth-
quakes and the tempestous lombard
ment, one was lucky to be left with
ones senses. l, personally, was very
successful, reaching all my object yes
and getting slap into the blue gray
devils, Bavarians, and blazing away
like a dreadnought. Oh! The sights
which were seen! Luck, good and lad,
was with me, for my bus caught on
fire in action just where the thing was
thickest, and ! ordered the whole crew
out, with fire extinguishers, to put it
out. Out we went and got busy. L
left my crew on the sheltered side
more or less), but my corporal, with
out orders, got on top, while ] went
to the exposed side vociferously order
ing the corporal down and we got the
blaze out between us Meantime one
of my crew was bowled over. We got
him back inside and later he came to
and is recovering. Whore I was the
bullets were scattering around me and
hitting old "Squash 'em Flat" and
splashing me with fine sprays of brok-
en- metal, and there it was l pot my
trifling wound and scratches, but it
was only bad Bavarian shooting that
kept me and my corporal twho was IN
touched) from being turned into ha-
man selves. After that, we carried on,
and as I had finished my job to the
last letter, we came on home, and !
brought Che old thing back safely.
When home I had the arm dressed at
the most advanced place and the bits
Of bullet casing in there pulled out and,
as it seemed SO trifling, put on my
coat and carried on as before. The
next morning my brigadier came to my
sleeping place, in person, and indig-
nantly asked me if I were going about
with bullet in my arm, and ! as in
dignantly denied it, but he ordered me
IN the h6snital IN he inocuIofo5 1or
antitetanine, patted my back shook
my sore arm, and said that we had
done the best show Of our lot the whole
day. n

SILVER To REACH PAR
MUST Go-ABoVE Sl.zo

New York, Sept. 26-'' Silver has
gone above par,'' said n ticket tape
reader, when, on Sept. Is it was quot.
ed at 100H. ''You are mistaken, :" re.
Piled better informed man who was
not reading the ticker ''It is long
way from par. A bet was quickly
made, and a referee appointed who,
after much Investigation, handed down
the following sterling opinion:
ga standard silver dollar contains
371A grains pure silver, and AK cop
per alloy, making up the total weight
of 412A grains. A troy ounce contains
4sO grains. By multiplying the price
Of silver on any day by 371H and ii-
viding by 4se grains, the result would
be the bullion value of silver dollar,
At 100h it would be worth 77.77 cents.
Not until silver sells for 1929 cents
an ounce win the silver in dollar be
worth 100 cents in gold Therefore
silver is net Vet at par, s.d judgment
is entered accordingly. f@
