Weekly Health Talks
Where Most Sickness Begins
and Ends
BY FRANKLIN DUANE, n. D.

II can be said broadly that most human
ills begin in the stomach and end in the
stomach. Good digestion means good
health, and poor digestion means bad
health. The minute your stomach fails to
properly dispose Of the food you sat,
troubles begin to crop out in various forms.
indigestion and dyspepsia are the COM
monest forms, but thin, impure blood,
headaches, backaches, pimplea, blotches.
ness, poor appetite, sfeeplessncss, coughs,
colds and bronchitis arc almost as common.
There is but one way TO have good health,
and that is TO put and keep your stomach
in good order. This is easy TO do II you
take DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. It is wonderful tonic and blood
purifier, and ID 20 safo to take, for It b
made Of roots and herbs. Dr.. Pierce, Of
Buffalo, N. Y, stands behind this standard
medicine, and il Is good to know that so
distinguished physician is proud to have
bis name identified with It. When you
Lake Golden Medical Discovery, you art
doctor whose reputation goes all around
the earth. Still more, you get . temper-
tnco medicine that contains not drop Of
,lcohol or narcotic Of any kind. Long ago
Dr. Pierce combined certain valuable
vegetable ingrcdients-without the use Of
icohol-so that these remedies always
ave been strictly temperance medicines.
II piles are torturing you, get and use
picrce's Anodyne Pile Ointment. The
Iuick relief 1t gives Is hard to belisve until

CANON CITY BOY
WINS WAR CROSS
Saves 3S French Sailors in
face of almost certain
death near Brest, making
one of grandest displays
of courage during world

Wearing the croix de guerre, award

signal bravery displayed through ar
act of heroism which stands out as
one OF the grandest displays of ,cour-
age during the world war, Ensign Ed

his brother, Charles w. Sweitzer of
Eads. prominent stockman and presi-
dent of the Nee-No-She OIL Company.
Ensign Sweitzer won the croix de
guerre at Brest when he rescued 3s
members Of the crew OF a French
battieshtp which had been torpedoed
by a German submarine at the en-
trance OF the harbor at Brest. The
submarine torpedo penetrated the
magazine OF the battleship and ex.
ploded the projectiles OF the French
war craft. causing one OF the most dis
astrous and spectacular distinctions
of ship during tie war.
The shot ignited tons of explosives
and ammunition stored In her mag
azines and with flames roaring from
every opening. and explosions tearing
their way through every conceivable
seam in her armored sides the doomed
ship steamed into the harbor. Shells
were roaring and sending their death
dealing projectiles in a shower over
the waters nearby. when Ensign SWEET
zer launched his small boat from his
ship and drove Il with all speed to.
wards the doomed vessel. Each mo-
ment 1t seemed that the terrific ex.
plosions would rend the ship and XIII
every living thing within n radius OF

Right into the soething waters the
intrepid Yankee drove his boat and
with his crew of four men rescued IS
OF the struggling figures In the water
and withdrew to the shore amid the
ringing cheers and sobs of the people
lining the wharves. Later the gov
ernment in imposing military display
pinned the coveted croix de guerre on
Ensign Sweitzer's breast where Il tops
the long line OF service stripes show
ing heroic service in Mexico and Hon
duras for the Stars and Stripes.
Ensign Sweitzer is visiting at present
another brother connected with the
forest ranger service at Alamosa.
Sweitzer is 81 years old and has been
10 years In the navy. He won special
distinction and decorations from the
America government at Honduras and
again In Mexican water. and he wears
the two American medals OF honor and
the French cross. The croix de guerre

Famous Writers Of the Past Got Along
Well Without the Aid Of the
Typewriter.

An interesting question for AGA
demic debate is the probability of a
greater literary output from prolific
writer's of past generations had they
been able to avail themselves Of the
aid of typewriter. A contributor
to a current magazine deplores the
fact that Benjamin Franklin had
no typewriter and wonders at the
vast amount of writing he might
have done had he not been compelled
to use the slower pen method. An
other writer doubts that the amount
OF writing would have been greatly
increased, suggesting that the time
saved probably would have been used
in thought and investigation of the
literary subjects. Dickens wrote all
his novels with a quill. He could
have done the writing in half the
time on typewriter and the print
ers could have saved half their time.
But in these days of the typewriter
no novelist is turning out good lit
erature any faster than Dickens did.
Thomas Jefferson left whole
library of his writings, put on pa
per with a pen.

PLAN OF GRAZING FOR GOATS
Give Vegetation Opportunity to Grow
by Dividing Range on Which

prepared by the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture.)
The production Of more mohair and
meat can be obtained in raising goats
on the range by following plan Of
grazing which will give the vegetation
chance to grow sufficiently to main
tain itself. Most goat ranges are used
throughout the year. This and the
general practice Of driving the goats
out from corral at the ranch head
quarters and back every day for
months or throughout the year have
been largely responsible for deteriora-
ton of the range. An excellent method
cf giving the forage proper oppor-
tunity for growth is to divide the range
into three areas-One for spring, an
other for summer and fall, and third
for winter.
The number and distribution of the
goats on these divisions should be such

ST0RK NEEDED IN EUROPE
That Famous Birds Of Strasbouro Have
Returned May Be Considered
Good Omen.

The storks of Strasbourg have
more than local fame. Travellers in
Europe who have visited the cathe-
dral city Of Lorraine are familiar
with the long-legged birds who built
their nests in the Place de Broglie.
The people Of Strasbourg looked
upon them as omens of good luck.
he story goes that in the spring Of
1914 the storks deserted the city.
Trouble is coming" said the old
timers as they passed the empty
nests. 1t came. For five years,
they say, there have been no storks
III the Place de Broglic; but now
they have come back.
The nests that had fallen into dis
repair have been rebuilt, and the
old-tImers say, "rrouble is over and
peace is here as they pass now.
Europe needs the stork. The task
assigned him in legend should keep
him busy. There is much replace
ment to be done.

as to secure proper and uniform utili-
zation of the forage. The divisions
should be protected from grazing eX-
cept during the seasons determined
upon. On successive parts Of the sam
mer and fall range grazing should be
deferred until after seed maturity of the
forage plants so as to insure proper
revegetation. On winter range the for
age close to the sheds should be re-
served for stormy periods only.
The old practice Of bedding the goats
on the same bed ground every night
In the year prevents proper manage
ment of the range and results in over
grazing, in uneven utilization of the
forage and general depreciation of the
range. This in turn has Il bad effect
on the condition of goats and the pro-
ducttOn Of meat and mohair. The use
of many bed grounds widely distribut-
ed over the range aids materially in
improving the quality and quantity of
the forage, reducing the trailing and
driving of the goats, and securing bet
ter growth of goats and nohair. The
ideal system is to bed the goats wher
ever night overtakes them, and it is
this system, called the "bedding.out"
system. that growers of goats are
urged to adopt whatever practicable.
The beddng-out system cannot be
strictly adhered to during kidding, dur
ting periods of stormy winter weather,
nor just after shearing; but its use at
other times is practicable and it has
many advantages.
Range To be suitable for goats should
possess mixture Of browse. grasses,
and weeds, be free from continued
heavy rains and SHOWS, and be Well
supplied with bed grounds and water
ing places. Browse furnishes most of
the range feed for goats throughout
the year. SO that ii should be abundant.
Grass and weeds are necessary for
does and kids during the spring and
summer, and are of considerable value
ut all times to give variety to the for
age.
Plenty OF fresh palatable feed has a

proportion OF kids raised. 1t also re-
