ing the daytime. He lived on the food
he had saved from his mcagcr rations
in the prison camp. He was entirely
, ignorant of the country through which
he passed, but guided himself by a
small pocket compass. On the eighth
day of his tramp he found himself in
certain village. He inquired of a
small girl whether he was in Switzer-
land and upon being told that he was,
he made his way direct TO Berne,
where he arrived August 80 and called
at the American legation.
Hitchcock was captured March g.,
when he was forced to land after an
aerial combat with three German ma
chimes. He was wounded in the thigh
and his machine became disabled at an
altitude of 1000 metres, but he man.
aged to land safely inside the Ger
man lines. He was Immediately seized
by several Germans and taken to a
dressing station. From there he was
sent to a hospital at St.-Arnold. Later
he was transferred to Saarbrucken.
1t took two months for the wound
in Hitchcock's leg to heal. He said
he was not maltreated by the Ger
mans, but that there was plenty of
suffering among the prisoners, who
were barely existing. He said he had
been saved by the arrival of packages
containing food from France.
Hitchcock will leave for the United
States in about two weeks He in
tends to transfer from the French to
the American flying corps.

A FAMiL,

In Her Mothers Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black
Draught. Relief From Head

Ringgold, Ca Mn. Chas. CASTOR,
OF this place, writes: "I am user
Of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact.
1t was one OF our family medicines.
Also in my mothers home, when /
was a child. When any Of us child
ren complained Of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave us
q dose Of Blacli-Draught, which would
rectify the trouble. Often In tho
Spring, we would have malaria and
chllls, or troubles OF this kind, we
would take Black-Draught pretty reg.

we would soon be up and around
again. We would mob be without 1t.
for 1t certainly has saved us lots OF
doctor bills. Just dose OF Black
D"aught when not so we'll saves a
lot OF days in bed"
Thedford's Blacls-Draught has been
in use for many years In the treat
ment OF stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, and the popularity which 1t
now enjoys Is proof Of It's merit.

HELL AclN THE KAISER

Big sparks flew from old Satan's eyes
whats this hear?" said he,
''They say that when the kaiser dies
He'll be consigned to me?
Old He'll to me is mighty dear.
The place is very fine;
But ii they send that guy down here,
Believe me, III resign!
III stand for murderers and crooks,
And will not disown
That have listed on my books
The worst thugs ever known.
My boys would get right sore. fear
know they would rebel;
No, Kaiser Bill can't enter here,
For he'd corrupt all He'll.
Our sulphur is too clean for him.
Our birthstone lakes too pure,
And IL in one he'd take swim,
'Twould ruin It I'm surel
Our company Is not 30 swell,
Vile beasts we don't reject;
But keep the kaiser out of He'll

BUY GILA VALLEY FLOUR

There Is a very large demand
for bran and mill feed in the Gila
valley, with which to feed dairy
stock. poultry, calves and pigs.
There is not a mill in Kansas
or Colorado that will ship any
bran to the Gila valley, because
bran must be sold at the govern
ment set price, and these mills
want their bran for their own
people and local trade; they want
the cheap feed for their own peo-
pie for their own dairy stock,
poultry, etc.
Every car of -four shipped into
the Gila valley prevents the local
mills from making 80, 900 pounds
of bran, and in addition, from
making the carload Of -four and
using 80 much local wheat, and
the logical quantity of bran is
depleted, and some wonder why
there is not more bran in the
valley when they need a sack or
two.
Every pound of shipped in
-four makes t'le Kansas farmer
richer, and the Arizona farmer,
merchant and miller poorer;
forces the farmer to hold his
wheat and the merchant to carry
an unpaid account; gives the
Kansas farmer the cheap bran
and the Arizona farmer none.
A blind man can see that it is
best for all interests to sell and
use Gila valley made -four, made
from Gila valley wheat.
Don't patronize mail order
-four. Patronize home industry;
keep your money circulating
within the State. How long will
it take money sent to Kansas for
anything to get back to the Gila
valley? Just as long as if sent to
a mail order house.
