la mencionada ciudad, pues Sc saba
que algunas partidas rebeldes. sc
acercaban IL plaza, por el rumbo
del Estado de Durango.
La inquietud de los pobladores de
Torreon Sc confirmo, pues que los
dichos rebeldes ilegaron hasta las
cercanias de Avilez, lugar no distan-
te de Ia metr6poli Iagunera.
Las fuerzas de Dieguez

new YOUTH FROM MONKEY?
French Doctor Says He's Found What
Ponce de Loon Sought.

New York, Oct. 13.-Has French
science discovered the elixir of youth
for which Ponce de Leon sought in
vain?
Dispatches from Paris say that DR..
Serge Voronoff has filled octogenar-
ians with the fire of youth by an
amazing operation, grating a mon
keys gland onto man.
New York physiology specialists say
it is possible. but that they. personally,
are from Missouri" They want to
see some high stepping, vigorous old
graybeards who have been returned to
boyhood.
However, Doctor Voronoff's account
OF his experiment won unstinted ova-
ton from his colleagues at the French
congress of surgery.
Dreams of eternal youth rose in the
minds of his hearers as Doctor
Voronoff told how he had restored a
decrepit 80-year- old patient to the vim
and vigor that was his at the age of
80. Even his poise and outlook on life
changed, the savant said.
Besieged by collea CUES for more in
formation, Doctor Voronoff explained
that he had grated the interstitial
gland from a rearing young male
monkey in the place of the worn out
gland of lis aged patient.
He said he had arrived at his elixir
of youth by a series of more than a
hundred experiments on animals, all
of which had positive results.

K.U. HUMBLES N.
JayhaWkers Win From Teach
ers in Game of Many Fumbles.
Game Was Ragged and Rough
Final Score Was IA to 0.

Lawrence. Oct. 13.-Kansas univer-
sity emerged victorious in its football
battle with the Kansas State Normal
school here Saturday afternoon. The
final score was 4 to O..
The game was ragged and neither
team showed anything but semi-occa-
sional flashes of football playing abil-
ity. To top off the raggedness of con-
tinual fumbles both teams added
scratches to the marring by receiving
repeated penalties for rough play. A
large part of the time in the game was
used by the referees in counting off
yards penalized."
The Normalites had all the best of
the argument during the first part of
the game, but the Jayhawk bird
preened its tail in the half intermis-
sion and pushed over two touchdowns
in the final set-to. The first Kansas
score came about two minutes after
beginning of play in the second half
when Scrubby Laslett fell on the bali
after a blocked Normal kick. The
ball was behind the Teacher goal.
Vaudeville carried the ball over the
Teacher line for the final score of the
game towards the end of the third
period. This touchdown was made
after a series of plunges and end runs
which went to make up a march up
the field" Lomborg kicked both goals.

STRONGER NOW
Than in Fifteen Years, Goddard
Says.
Hasn't Felt So Well Since He
: Was a Boy.

when I commenced taking Tanlac,
L was SO weak and rundown, L
couldn't lift as much as ten pounds.
but now 1 am stronger than 1 have
been in fifteen years and am putting
in tenn hours hard work every day."
said f. Goddard, a well known en-
ploye of the Avery Implement Co..
and who lives at 7Q9 Vine street,
Peoria, ILL.,, the other day.
Yes, sir, Tanlac is all right" con-
tinued Mr.. Goddard, land out of all
the medicine and treatments 1 have
taken during the past fifteen years,
Tanlac is the only thing that has done
me any good at ALL l suffered from
bad case of stomach trouble, and
finally got to the point where every
thing l ate disagreed with me, and
1 would have the worst sort of cramp-
ing pains in the pit of my stomach
after meals. Sometimes l would get
so badly bleated up with gas that L
could hardly get a good breath Then.
IN addition to this trouble, 1 suffered
something awful with rheumatism in
my arms and right leg, and many
times my leg was SO stiff 1 could hard
~ walk Finally my nerves went
back on me and 1 got to where 1
couldn't sleep to do any good. In
fact, was SO nervous and restless at
night that never got any sleep before
2 or O'Clock in the morning. 1 Just
kept going from bad to worse until
1 was SO weak and rundown 1 could
hardly get about.
"A friend of mine who works next
to me down at the Avery Plant knew
the condition 1 was in and told me
that he was once in the same fix, and
that Tanlao was the only medicine
that ever did him any good, and ad-
vised me to give it a trial. Well.
thought that if it had done so much
for this man, it ought to help me, so
1 bought a bottle of this medicine
and commenced taking it. In very
short time l could see that Tanlac was
doing the work for me. The pains
from the rheumatism eased up, and
what I ate didn't seem to hurt me
like it did. My appetite came back,
too, and I could relish my meals more.
l just continued to take Tanlac and
now l am as well and strong as 1 ever
was in my life before. The truth OF
J the matter is. I haven't felt SO well in
| every way since 1 was a boy. My
stomach is in perfect condition, and
1 can eat just anything 1 want with
out suffering afterwards. The rheu-
matism has left me altogether, and l
never lose minute from my work
will tell anybody in the world that
! Tanlac is the best medicine I ever saw
and anybody who tries it will be bene-
fitted"
Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully-
Mcfarland Drug Co, S35 Kansas ave-
nue.. and 729 Kansas avenue.-Adv
