A letter was received today by
The Argus from Private James M.
Wright, 1901 Second avenue, who
is with Battery F. the Rock Island
Moline unit in the One Hundred
Twenty third field artillery, stal
toned with the army of occupa-
ton at Lingten, Germany.
I'VE are in one fine town now, "
writes Jim. The population is 105.
So you can imagine that we are
having a wild time of il. The way
we are having inspections around
here, indicates that we are getting
ready to pull out pretty quick so
tell the people to have the town
already for the boys when We get
home, as we haven't had one real
good time since We struck this
country"
The Thirty-third division of
which the One Hundred Twenty
third is a part. is slated for return

OFFER CHIEF A
SALESMAN JOB
Phil Miller May Become Vender OF
Yeast After Leaving Star With
Police Commissioner.

From chief of police to a vender
of yeasti
That's what Phil Miller, present
chief of police of Rock Island, ex-
poets or rather is considering re-
cording in his autobiography after
he vacates his position with the
city when the successful candidates
for mayor and commissioners at the
election in April take their new
duties.
Il have had the position of yeast
salesman offered me and l may
take the job. Two or three others
have made attractive offers and l
am not just certain as to what l will
do, Chief Miller said.
Miller is confident that he will not
be reappointed to his present posi-
ton and is in the market for job.
He reviewed his past service with
the Rock Island police department
to an Argus representative today
and wound up by saying that he
wished he had quit the police game
four years ago.
Il have served my term with the
city and l will be glad when the
time is up" he said. Il have been
at the head of one of the best police
departments in the state for the last
four years and 1 defy anyone to
show the records of the police de-
partments of any other city that can
compare with that of Rock Island.
Our work during the last few
t. INC ,NF
the most dangerous criminals in
the world has proven our worth.
When anyone was wanted for an
offense in the tri-cities, it has been
Rock Island officers most of the
time who got them and no one can
say otherwise. Davenport and Mo-
line put on extra policemen when
the crime wave was one, but Rock
Island with its crippled force did
the work"

LEGACY AWAITS
MAN LONG LOST
Small Fortune for J. ID. WadswOrtiI
of Milan Who Disappeared
% Years Ago.
PETITION HEARD YESTERDAY
Request That Administrator Be
Required to Show Cause for
Failure to Pay Granted.

I Joseph d. Wadsworth disappeared
from his home near Milan in Sep
| TEN Der. 10 He was last heard
| from about a year later when he
wrote to his parents from Gillette,
Wyo. A legacy of over $4,000
| awaits his return if he is in the
land of the living.
The son OF the late Sandy
Wadsworth OF Milan, he was 26
years Of age and unmarried when
he left home, to become lost to the
world that knew him. Over % years
later, administrators of the estates
of Sandy and Robert Wadsworth
and Mary Mcknight turned over to
the county treasurer $3,7O9.38 to
be held in trust for the missing
man. At that time heirs of the es-
tates filed a petition in probate
court asking that Joseph Wads-
worth be legally pronounced dead
and an administrator of his estate
appointed.
No action was taken until Dec.
"a, 1918, when the American Trust
q Savings bank was appointed adj
ministrator of his estate, and the
county treasurer ordered to turn
over to the bank the sum held in
trust by him.
Prior to this time Joseph Wads-
worth was bequeathed the sum of
$500 under the provisions of the
will of Joseph Mcknight which
was admitted to probate Jan. 25,
1905. At that time the money was
not turned over to the estate of the
missing man, however.
Yesterday the American Trust Dc
Savings bank as administrator filed
a petition asking that Andrew Nc
Cav, administrator of the estate of
Joseph Mcknight, pay to the WadS-
worth estate the legacy of $500.
Failure to turn over the money is
attributed to insufficiency of the
personal property of the late 10
seph Mcknight, although there is
certain real estate amply covering
the behest. Petition asks that
these lands be sold in order to
turn over the $500 to the bank. The
law firm of Witter & Walker rep
resents the estate of Joseph D.
Wadsworth and the administrator.
McCaw Ordered Before Court.
Judge Frank ]. Landee ordered
that Andrew McCaw as administra-
tor of the estate of Joseph Nc
knight, appear before the court ard
show cause for failure to make pay
ment Of the $500 bequest.
According to the law, Joseph y.
Wadsworth will be declared leg
ally dead If within five years after
the appointment of the bank as
administrator. or. by Dec. "a, 1923,
no further word is heard from him.
His estate will then revert to his
legal heirs.

THE girl that exposes her ankles
to the weather does not realize the

SO doing. If girls would wear low

result of wearing low shoes and

ger of another Spanish influenza

DAILY HEALTH TALKS
What Is the Cause Of
Backache?
Backache?
BY DOCTOR CORNELL.

Backache is perhaps the most COM
mon ailment from which women suffer.
Rarely do you find anybody free from
1t. Sometimes the cause is obscure,
but Dr. Pierce OF Buffalo. n. Y, a
high medical authority, says the cause
is very often a form of catarrh that
settles In the delicate membranes of
the feminine organs. When these orr
gans are inflamed, the first sypmtom
is backache, accompanied by bearing
down sensations, weakness, unhealthy
discharges, irregularity, painful pc
RODS, irritation, headache and gen
eral run down condition. Any woman
in this condition is to be pitied but
pity does not cure. The trouble calls
for Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription,
which is separate and distinct medi-
cine for women. 1t is made Of roots
and herbs put up without alcohol or
plate of any kind, for DIR. Pierce uses
nothing else in his prescription. Fa-
vorite Prescription is natural remedy
for women, for the vegetable growths
Of which it is made seem to have been
| intended by nature for that very 'pur-
pose. Thousands of girls and women,
young and old have taken it, and
| thousands have written grateful let
tiers to DR.. Pierce saying 1t made them
well. In taking Favorite Prescription,
| it is reassuring to know that it goes
straight to the cause of the trouble
| There is but one way to overcome
sickness, and that is to overcome the
cause. That Is precisely what Favor
lite Prescription is intended to do.
