STORY OF "HELL ROARIN'
REFORM

Tarantula is about the toughest
tewn, in point Of population, that
you could find in the country. Its
neighbOr, Elkburg, is so Iaw-abiding
that it maintains only calaboose
for the entertainment of visiting
horse thieves and other undesirables.
One Of The welcome visitors is Tim,
a cowboy whose platform is the
square deal; but he breaks loose on
frolics which have a tendency to dis
tract the Elkburgers from their chief
occupation-sIumber. In order that
they may get sleep, during one of
his v.site, the Elburg people work a
ruse and bestow on Tim TIE honor of
carrying the Belgian Babies Milk
Fund to the postofice, ninety-fve
miles away.
Along the trail he is held up by
bandits who do not hesitate to take
milk out of the mouths of babes, and
they relieve him of the fund. They
ride toward Trantula-which has a
sting like it's we'll known namesake-
Tim follows. On the way he meets
preacher who has been driven out
of Tarantula by the bandits.
He determines to get the outlaws
who rob babies and insult preachers,
but is halted in his task when, on
rounding a curve in the trail, he sees
the bandits further down engaged in
robbing the stage coach. He drives
them off by using two six-shooters
and his rifle, then he goes down to
the stage, where he finds Doris Jen-
kins and her father, storekeeper
He promptly volunteers to drive
Doris into Trantula and she is to
introduce him as a minister. Arriv-
ing, he takes up the work of the
preacher and with his six-shooters
begins to instill religion and right
eousness. The bandits set him a fast
pace, even trying to kill him by i'm
prisoning him in the church and pull
ling the church down around him.
But he escapes and rides to the sa-
loon owned by one Baxter-who
owns about everything in town, and
besides is sheriff and chief of the
outlaws.
The place is locked He rides to
the balcony of hotel next door and
calmly leaps his horse to the roof
of the saloon. Horse and man plunge
through the roof, landing in the
saloon in midst of Baxter's gang.
Baxter and some of his men escape.
The leader orders his men to lay for
Tim and kill him if necessary, while
he goes to kidnap Doris, whom he
wishes to marry.
Tim is subsequently captured by
the bandits, who bind his hands, place
a moose around his neck and leave
him, seated on his horse beneath a
tree branch which the rope has been
tied If the horse moves away it
means death to Tim. The latter, by
superhuman effort, eXtricates him
self and again starts after Baxter.
He learns that Baxter has kidnapped
Doris and has gone to another town
to force a clergyman to marry them.
Tim arrives in time to prevent the
marriage, andthen at the point of a
gun, forces Baxter to serve as witness
to his marriage to Doris. He also
forces Baxter to write check for
$4,000 to build new church.
This picture and an episode of the
Eagles Eye will be shown at the
Opera House next Tuesday, Apr. 8.

A Welcome For Sickness

Indigestion, clogged stomach and
bowels, is more than an invitation to
illness; it gives a cordial welcome.
Undigested food ferments and sends
poisons throughout the system. Fo-
some, quick in action, no bad after
effect. Cleanse bowels, sweeter
stomach, tone up liver.
