By National Body
OF American Legio1,

Allan Turkey, first national vice
commander of the American Legion
and president of the Douglas county
post, received a telegram yesterday
from Colonel D'Olier, national COM
mander of the legion, stating that

affairs committee of the legion.

P. c. Heafy, former coroner Of
Douglas county, says the apparent
failure to identify the woman MUIR
dered on the Ridge road near Coff-
man is not uncommon in the his
tory of the county. He recalls sew
eral instances where unidentified
persons were buried in unmarked
graves during his tenure of Office.
About 10 years ago, he says, three
young men were killed by a Union
Pacific train and for four or five
days thousands of people attempted
to identify them. Their names were
never learned and they were buried
in Forest Lawn cemetery.
Mistaken identity such as has
been frequent in the present murder
mystery is also common, he says.
He recalls the death of a travelling
salesman in the Willard hotel, sew
eral years ago, when the body was
identified BY his wife. The heart
broken woman took the body and
it was buried in Omaha. Before
admitting her claim investigations
were made to determine if the man
carried life insurance, and it was
found he did not.

The Doctor Away From Home When

People are often very much dsap-

physician is away from home when
they most need his services. Diseases
like pain 10 the stomach and bowels,
collie and diarrhoea require prompt
treatment, and have 10 many instauc-
es proven fatal before medicine could
be procured or physician summoned.
The right way is to keep at hand a
bottle Of Chamberlain's Collie and

can prescribe better medicine for
these diseases. BY having it in the
house you escape much pain and suf-
fering and all risk. Buy it now; it
may save life. June adv.
