SCOT BEATS LAW BY A NOSE
Thirsty Sandy, In Wild Race Against
Time, Arrives on Quarter Minute
and Gets His Drink.

Writing in EverybOdy's, Maude Rad.
ford Warren enumerates some amusing
Incidents showing the effects of linn
tied war prohibition in England. One
evening the author witnessed the fol-
lowing race against time that was
staged near Victoria station, London,
at an hour when traffic is thickest:
presently a shouting and cursing
arose at the center Of the intersecting
streets. People turned, peering and
gaping. Streaking straight through
the traffic, regardless of laundering
trucks and sliding cabs and Obstruct-
ing pedestrians, came q ScOtchman.
His eyes were CLASSY and staring; his
kits were flying; his knees were twin
king. On he came, straight for the
public house. If he could get hand
on a glass of his national vodka by
8 9:29h, he was saved. Would he make
It? A group of ribald Americans
cheered him on, yelling at him in race
track fashion. His fellow ScOtchmen
silently made way for him, and some
Of them even pushed people out of his
path. But they did not cheer; 1t was
matter too deep for sounds. On
came Sandy; painting, glaring, he
leaped through the door, and a SYM
pathizer from over the seas who fol-
lowed him reported that :29% he had
a strong Highland paw curled around
three fingers of Scotch. The early
closing law, thanks to good sprinting,
had been respected-but nevertheless,
the trench had been taken and the day
saved"

Such a Name!

A college professor In California has
discovered a mineral hitherto unknown
to science, which he has called "crest-
moreite," because it was found at
Crestmore. We are told by way of
description, says the Providence Bull
letin, that 1t is "a new hydrous basic
of orthOsilicate, containing small
amounts of other oxides In place Of
Silica" which leaves us altogether in
the dark as to whether we shall soon
be using crestmoreite as an improved
stovepipe material or wearing it as a
watch charm.

have been a standard household remedy.
They are the pure, original imported
Haarlem Oil your great-grandmother
used, and are perfectly harmless. The
healing, soothing oil soaks into the cells
and lining of the kidneys and through
the bladder, driving out the poisonous
germs. New life, fresh strength and
health will come as you continue this
treatment. When completely restored to
your usual vigor, continue taking a cap
sule or two each day. They will keep
you in condition and prevent a return Of
the disease.
Do not delay a minute. Delays are
especially dangerous in kidney and blad-
der trouble. All reliable druggists sell
GOLD MEDAL HARLEM OIL Capsules.
They will refund the money if not as rep
resented. In three sizes, sealed packages.
Ask for the original imported GOLD
MEDAL. Accept no substitutes.

YOU NEED NOT SUFFER WITH
BACKACHE AND RHEUMATISM

For centuries GOLD MEDAL Haarlem
Oil has been a standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and
bladder are the most important organs of
the body. They are the filters, the puri-
hers of your blood. If the poisons which
enter your system through the blood and
stomach are not entirely thrown out by
the kidneys and bladder you are doomed.
Weariness, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins, and lower abdo-
men, gall-stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism, sciatica, lumbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
GOLD MEDAL HARLEM Oil Capsules are
what you need.
They are not patent medicine" nor

and village sites, burial grounds and
battlefields of the Indians, collecting
and studying the relies of these first
settlers-Or were they first, after all?
A. find of hammer stones, arrow heads
and charred hearth stones in an old
soil layer two to six feet beneath the
surface last summer indicates earlier
Inhabitants than the Arickara.
When the Indians followed the buff
falO over the Dakota prairies, long be-
fore the white man came, there were
fifty or more populous villages along
the Missouri river. The early tribes
of Arickaras In the Missouri valley,
like Dakota farmers today, grew corn
and pumpkins, for the Arickaras were
farmers. They built lodges of poles
and willow thatch daubed thick with
mud to keep out the searching fingers
of the blizzards. Their clothing was
made of buffalo skins. The shovel
with which they dug their fields and
the trowel with which they spread the
mud plaster on the walls Of their
houses were made from the shoulder
blade of the buffalo. Their arrow
points and knives were of flint or bone
This was the life of the Arickaras be-
fore the first white traders came, be-
fore the Sioux Cor Dakotah) Indians
pressed by white settlers from Canada,
poured in from the north and east. 1t
was the stone age, when to make
hammer required days of grinding and
working on some boulder found in the
creek bed, with an outline like that Of
the tool to be made.
Fine Collection of Relics.
More than sixty skeletons of the
Arickara tribe have been unearthed
and are in the university museum.
Hundreds of hammer stones, arrow
heads, beads, bone tools and bone or
>naments are also in the university col
lection Of the Airckara relics. Even
the national government has not near
ly as good an Arickara collection. The
only two Arickara tobacco pipes ever
found In grave are in the university
collection. There are many fragments
of the earthenware pots or bowls used
by the Indians in cooking, and two en-
tirely undamaged bowls, which show
the kind of pottery work the ancient
Indians made.
The age of much of the material
found is prOblematical, but that
great deal of it dates back to the pc
riod before 1850 is certain, for at about
that time the Sioux or Dakota Indians
began driving the Arickaras relentless

Preferred Two Halves.

The teacher had been explaining
fractions to her class. When she had
discussed the subject at length, wish
ing to see how much light had been
shed, she inquired, "NOw, Bobbie,
which would you rather have, one ap-
pie or two halvesT
The little chap promptly replied,
1.-TWO halves"
"Oh, Bobbie," exclaimed the young
woman, little diSappointedly, "why
would you prefer two halves?"
Because then 1 could see if it was
wormy."

When you lose your knife or do not
have pair of scissors at hand for cut
ting the paper common pin or needle
Of any kind serves the purpose admir-
ably, says Popular Science Monthly. If
it is single sheet from which the
clipping is to be removed, lay the part
on another paper, hold the pin slant
wise so that the point will follow
around the clipping, just as If tracing
its outline. Pass back over the
scratch with the point in the lead and
you will be surprised how smoothly
the pin cuts the paper.
