soon began to look for i place to put
our bed. At last he found an old
wagon with q bed on II. helped
him push it under q tree So that the
dew would not fall on US, then he got
some poor mans grass out of the
barn and made the bed. BY that time
! had supper ready. We had crack
ers and bologna for supper and for
breakfast we had bologna and crack
ers, but that night the burned cows
ate all Of our bedding but what we
slept on, and slobbered all over Liz.
The third night we had lots of
trouble. 1t was In Tennessee and we
stayed with an old crouch Of a farm
er. Pal asked him If we could have
pea hay to put in a wagon box to
make our bed on and he said no.
That made Pal mad and he said, sT
viii get even with that old cuss." So
we waited till he was in bed, then
Pal got in the NOW and threw down
all the pea hay he had and put it in
wagon box and we pulled the wagon
under a tree on the side Of q steep
hill. Then / found an old crock and
tied my handkerchief over the top
for a strainer and co1nered up COW
and got enough milk for supper and
breakfast, SO we had two meals of
crackers and milk. After we were
in bed a while I heard Pal say Judge,
Judge!n I said, "What do you want h
and he replied, "There are squirrels
up in the tree, for something dropped
down right in my ear" a said, "You
get the gun and I'll get the lantern
and we will get them, On looking
up in the tree we saw about twenty
chickens roosting, so we moved our
wagon under another tree and put a
stone under the wheel to keep it
from rolling down hill. Then we went
to sleep again and while dreaming Of
our wives at home we felt our bed
going down hill, for the old farmers
hog had removed the stone. Our: bed
rolled about 300 feet and hit sap
ling. When it stopped, Pal went on
out thru the foot of the bed and land
ed on pile Of rocks and I stopped
astraddle Of the sapling that stopped
our bed. Neither Of us slept any
more that night, for we were busy
till we left bathing one another with
cold water. We left before the sun
sor the old farmer were up. After
going about rs miles Pal wanted to
go back and get the rest of his hide
that he left on the stone pile, but
told him to drive ON. for the buzzards
had it by that time, for there are
lots Of them in that country.
The next evening Pal wanted to
know if I would roast sweet potatoes
if he would get them. We were
about to camp close to a patch Of
them, SO he went out in the patch to
dig some and I, went to a negro hut
for water, and while / was talking to
the old negro woman and her daugh-
ter, here came Pal limping, I asked
him what was the matter and he re-
piled he believed that q snake had bit
ten him. Then the old woman said,
you all pull up your trousers and
let me see. No quicker said than
done, and she said, why, law me,
dear honey, a later bug has bitten
you all. Melinda, you run right in

John E. Wolf, proverbial for local

had another occurrence coming to
them, namely: if occupants cannot be
gotten to the rs empty houses in
the country in this section, what is
the matter with bringing the build
ings to Spencer's houseless popula-
ltion. Like most pioneers of good
ideas, they ran up against a ci1cum-
stance: the law forbids their hauling
them with a tractor over the stone
road, and neither could they "snub"
them, as there was no place to set
their stakes. Then it was that,

GIRLS! HAVE WAVY,
THICK, GLOSSY HAIR
FREE RFOM DANDRUFF
Save Your Hair! Double Its Beauty
In a Few Moments-
Try This!

!
Try This!
If you care for heavy hair, that
! glistens with beauty and is radiant
with life; has an Incompatible soft
ness and is fluffy and lustrous, try
Danderine.
Just one application doubles the
beauty Of your hair, besides it I'M
mediately dissolves every particle of
dandruff; you cannot have nice,
heavy, healthy hair if you have dan
druff. This destructive scurf robs
the hair of its lustre, it's strength and
its very life, and if not overcome it
produces feverishness and itching
f the scalp; the hair roots famish,
loosen and die; then the hair falls
out fast.
If your hair has been neglected
and is thin, faded, dry, scraggy or
too oily, get small bottle of Knowl-
tons Danderine at any drug store or
toilet counter for a few cents; apply
a little as directed and ten minutes
after you will say this was the best
investment you ever made.
We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that if
you desire soft, lustrous, beautiful
hair and lots of it-no dandruff-
no itching scalp and no more failing
halr-you must use Knowlton's Dan
derine. If eventually why not
now?

We Must Destroy The Institutions Re-

"You can't wipe out the liquor business,

strong drink" say the liquor
But since when the desire for strong drink nau-

whiskey the first time they drank them. It only
after taking many drinks that they got the habit of
drinking.
single generation would destroy the craving for
beer and whskey, excepting for those who have been
cursed by the INHERITANCE of that craving &C.
qured by their parents.
1t would undoubtedly take longer period of time to
destroy all the evil effects of the use of liquor in the
terms Of weakened minds and broken bodies but
there's doubt that the closing of the saloon will
greatly reduce the number of those who would be SUBJ
jected to the temptations and consequent evils of
strong drink.
The closing of the saloon will not at once remove all
the bad influences due to the Of liquor. 1t isn't
possible to pass law inaugurate movement that
will destroy all these evils in the twnking of eye.
What the people need to do is to pass against the sa
loon the best kind of law that is possible under all the
circumstances, elect the best kind of to enforce
the law and the closing of the saloon will undoubtedly
follow.
AS the open saloon is the chief promoter of acquired
tastes for beer and whskey it follows that the closing
of the saloon will diminish the number of men and
men who will develop tastes of this kind.
AS to whether not will still manufacture
and use intoxicating liquor after the saloons are
closed is matter which will take care of itself.

AUTO CLUB ENDORSES.

The Warren District Auto club is out with an endorsement of the new TombstOne-CharlestOn route for all Warren district people going to Ram SC, Garden canyon and Fort Huachuca in the Huachuca mountains. The req son of this is that in the event of he Bankehead Military Highway as sociatiOn choosing the southern route which now seems the idea of close observers then the fort will be reached by a spur and that spur will be either from Tombstone via Charleston CT Tur. ner If the Bankhead Military High way association chooses to go to Tue son via Benson then the spur will run to the fort from Tombstone. The road from Tombstone to Fort Huachuca via Charleston. Buena and Overton is go ing to be one of the best dirt roads in the county, the surfacing is mostly decompOsed granite or caliche from the San Pedro river to the fort.
