Workmen Unearth Skeleton
OF Mysterious Man in Grave

Logan, Ia. Oct. 3.-(Special y
A gruesome find was discovered by
workmen when excavating for a
furnace under the August Schnuc-
kles house in Magnolia. When down
between five and eight feet the
workmen cut through the edge Of a
grave and by reaching in with a
spade they brought out parts of the
skeleton. The skeleton was in no
box or casket, but covered with
some fabric that crumbled when
exposed to the atmosphere. To the
workmen and some of those present
the fabric looked to be of wooden
texture, possibly a blanket; to 9TH
ers it looked like broadcloth or
cloth of shiny nature. The work
men decided that the find amounted
to nothing, walled up the edge of
the grave when they completed the
basement and threw away what
they had taken from the grave.
Robert Clark, whose parents own
ed the building years ago, says that
the house was among the first to be
erected in the town in the early
flfties. and the find of the grave un-
der the house comes as a surprise
to him. As no beads were found
in the grave, it is thought. by some
the skeleton is Of a prehistoric man.

Paris, Oct. 3.-With victory in

United allied armies to pursue their
course until the benefits of complete

Health So Bad Before Taking
Tan!aC Don't See Now
How She Lived.

"a little less than two months
ago began taking Tanlac and since
that time l have actually gained
twenty-five pounds" was the re-
markable statement made by Mrs.
J. W. Williams, of $50 Dorcas st.,
Seattle, Wash, recently.
"My health has been very poor
for many years." she continued,
"but my condition has been so bad
during the past two or three yeas
that | really don't see how lived.
| suffered most all the time with
fearful headaches and awful pains
in my back and, in fact, was racked
with pain all over. | lost my ap-
petite, and my nerves became so
shattered that I hardly knew what
sleep was. When my husband lost
his sight my duties, of course, be-
came doubly hard, and my health
being bad already, | kept going
down under the strain. | did every
thing l could to keep out of bed,
but finally got to where | was just
up and down--would sit up one day
and be in bed the next-and | even
had to give up my homework be-
cause / was so weak. Every day
was just another day of suffering
and misery for me-"
81 went down from one hundred
and forty pounds to less than hum
dred, and was just frame with
scarcely strength to move around.
l finally made up my mind from
what | read about Tanlac to try it
and have certainly found it WON
derful. / now weigh one hundred
and twenty-five pounds and if any
one could feel like a new person I
do. My appetite is splendid and I
am just building up every day.
My nerves are in good condi-
ton. | have gotten rid Of all my
pain and now l sleep like child
every night. l have gained so much
in strength already that l can do
all my homework without any trou-
Bile and l have been benefited so
much that | am glad to recommend

Jerusalem is Happy Over
Capture of City by Allies

London, Oct. 5.-There is wide
spread enthusiasm i'll the territory
occupied by the British in Pales-
tine on account of the defeat of
the Turkish army. according to dis
patches just received. Large depu-
tations of notable men of all COM
munities at Jerusalem have con-
veyed congratulations to the chief
administrator and military governor.
The occupation of MAN by Arab
forces has especially pleased the
Arab Bedouins, among whom there
was doubtless an undercurrent of
fear that the Turkish troops might
return, But apprehension has been
completely dissipated. The admins
tration is being conducted under
normal conditions and the usual
business is being transacted.
The situation in Nazareth is re-
ported to be equally satisfactory.
