forty years ago. At the time he was out hunting, when all of sudden while passing under a tree whose branches overspread the road, he heard a strange animal sneeZe, and, on looking up a very large panther leaped down into his face. Columbus saw at once that he was in for a com bat, and after pulling off his coat and rolling up his sleeves he began to grow mad. He soon had the panther down on the ground screaming for mercy and help. Just at this time there sprang to the panther's rescue four more large partners which pounc ed upon him, and before he coul0 quelch them, large drove of probab- ly a dozen or more had arrived where upon he saw he was in for trouble
 But, said he, with his usual display of bravery, he lit in on them, and fin ally killed the whole layout by talk

Why the Panrhers all Left.


 It is regretted by all that the wild animals that once were so plentiful in this section have now gone forever, the onward march of civilization, with it's accompanying progress, having all but exterminated them. It is safe to predict that at no distant date there will no be enough wild animals left to pose for photographs for the circus bill-boards. The crowd tthe Hog wallow postoffice was discussing this important subject Tuesday night. Years ago, declared some of the older ones, the Gander and Gimlet creek bottoms were fairly alive with wild animals. A person could go out into the woods a short distance and find any sort of a wild varmint he was looking for, and to find them,h never had to take along lot of feed and call them like he did the hogs. Wild cats and pathers were plentiful, but today there are left only the harmless animals and such fellows as Rag Bar low and Ellick Hellwanger. Some Of the crowd Tuesday night could not un- derstand the scarcity of all our fear bearing animals until Columbus Alsop told of his experience in doing away with the partners of this immediate vicinity. It occurred one night about

LOWER PRICES FOR FLOUR SUBSTITUTES
 IS NOW DEMANDED

There are strong indications that the price of corn meal and other sub Btitutes for wheat flour will be reduced within the next few weeks. The Food Administration at Washington has sent out warning to all milIers of substitute grains and to wholesale and retail dealers in these products, call. lnE their attention to tho fact that at the present prices paid for corn and oats, eornmsal and oatmeal should be selling at least 20 per cent below the price of wheat flour, and that corn and barley flour should be selling at least ten per cent below wheat flour.
 The high levels ruling in grains as a result of car shortages and stormy weather last winter have now fallen materially with greater freedom of transportation and the stocks accumu- lated by manufacturers and traders at the prices ruling then should have been generally liquidated by this time, It is held. Investigations will be made In all cases where the dealer Is be- Heved to be charging more than fair croft on substitutes.

HANDS, ARMS,
 LIMBS ASLEEP
And Was Rundown, Weak and Nervous, Says Florida Lady. Five Bottles of Cardui
 Made Her We'll.

Kathleen, Fla.-Mrs. Dallas Prime, of this place, says: After the birth of my last child. II got very much rundown and weakened, SO much that could hardly do anything at all. was so awfully nervous that I could scarcely endure the least noise. My condition was getting worse all the time...
 I knew I must have some relief or l would soon be in the bed and in a serious condition for I felt so badly and was so nervous and weak I could hardly live. My husband asked Dr. --about my taking Cardui. He said. Its good medicine, and good for that trouble, so he got me 5 bot ties. After about the second bottle I felt greatly improved. before taking it my limbs and hands and, arms would go to sleep. After taking 1t. however. this poor circulation disap- peared. My strength came back to me and was soon on the road to health. After the use of about bot. ties, I could do all my house-work and attend to my six children be- sides"
 You can feel safe in giving Cardui a thorough trial for your troubles. It contains no harmful or habit-formfne drugs. but is composed of mild. yege- table. medicinal ingredients with no bad after-effects. Thousands of women have voluntarily written, telling of the good Cardui has done them. It should help you, too. Try 1t. B E7l

Wife and Child Die

Wife and Child Die
 The many friends of Sergt. A. D. Mckenzie who spent several months here alst winter on a recruiting mis- sicn for the British and Canadian armies, will learn with much rexret the death of his wife and baby daughter at Trenton, N. J., on Sept. 26th. Mrs. McKenzie's death was due to Spanish influenza. The sad news of her death was conveyed in a letter to MT. J. w.. Brighton, of Mo renci, from MT. Mckenzie.
 MT. Chas. Chesterfield, after a visit with his brother at Longfellow, was returning to his home in Newtown on Sunday evening and on approaching the dairy MT. Chesterfield observed a car coming at full speed bound for; Morenci and pulled to the side of the road to avoid a collision. The driver of the car bound for Morenci refused to dim his lights or give MT. Ches- terfield enough room to pass, and as a result forced him over the bank which is about fifteen feet of a drop at this place. The car is a total wreck and MT. Chesterfield is in the A. c. hospital in very serious conii- tion. The driver of the other car put on full speed and never even stopped to see if he could be of any assist ance. To run away and not offer assistance after being the cause of an accident, in most states is a prison offense. The road between Morenci and Clifton is dangerous at best, but with careful driving many accidents are avoided. But there are few drivers who think the road was built for them only and proceed to make it dangerous for themselves and for everyone else. These road hogs should have their licenses taken away from they as they are not fit to drive cars.
