thin, FRAIL
FOLKS need
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro.Phosphate to
Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and TO
Increase Strength, Vlaor
and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless prepara-
lions and treatments which are con-
tinually being advertised for the pur
pose OF making thin people fleshy, de-
veloping arms, neck and bust, ard re-
placing ugly hollows and angles by the
soft curved lines of health and beauty,
there are evidently thousands of men
and women who keenly feel their ex-
cessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often
due to starved nerves. Our bodies
need more phosphate than is contained
In modern foods. Physicians claim
there is nothing that will supply this
deficiency so we'll as the organic phos-
plate known among druggists as bitro-
phosphate, whic his inexpensive and
is sold by H. H. Drug Co. in Fairmont
and most all druggists under guar
antee OF satisfaction or money back
By feeding the nerves directly and by
supplying the body cells with the nec-
essary phosphoric food elements, bitro-
phosphate should produce a welcome
transformation in the appearance; the
increase in weight frequently being
astonishing.
Increase in weight also carries with
It general improvement in the health,
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of
energy, which nearly always accom-.
pany excessive thinness, should soon
disappear, dull eyes ought to brighten
and pale cheeks glow with the bloom
OF perfect health.
CAUTION: - Although bitro-phos-
phate is unsurpassed for relieving
nervousness, sleeplessness and general
weakness, 1t should not, owing to its
tendency to increase weight, be used
by anyone who does not desire to put
on flesh.

BOXING is
BIG FEATURE
Quincy Homecoming For Her Soldiers
Loses Country Picnic
Aspects by Fast
Bouts.

The visit of General Bell, comman-
der Of the Thirty-third division, and
a program of boxing pouts were
features of the Homecoming celeora-
ton at Quincy Saturday. The Wing
makes this comment:
With a major general Of the United
States army, General George Bell,
Jr.. commander and beloved leader of
the Thirty-third division as the prin-
cipal speaker and some or the best
exponents of the manly ART as enter
tanners and both features watched
by men in uniform, the military ele-
ment was in the spotlight in the COM
btned welcome celebration for return
ed service men and annual picnic OF
the farm bureau that was given in
Baldwin park Saturday aftrnoon.
Every auditor applauded General
Bells speech 1t was short, practi-
cal and straight to the point. He
preached the doctrine or military
preparedness. Every spectator wildly
cheered the boxing matches that fol-
lowed In which certain clever youths
demonstrated the value OF physical
preparedness and illustrated with
ready fist the results or training.
without General Bell the celebra-
ton would have lacked an imposing
and picturesque feature. Without
the boxing exhibition and the three
fast and fierce fights the audience
would have lacked a joyous hour and

GOES WRESTLING
TO HIS DEATH
Ario TruebIood Found Hanging to
Tree, With Cause For Suicide
Mystery to His
Friends.

SALEM, Ia, Sept. 17.-Swinging a
corn knife over his shoulder and
with light step and whistling. Ario
Trueblood, aged 26 years, known
throughout this section for his wit,
humor and always happy frame OF
mind, moved across the fields from
the home on the farm of Charles
Sem, mile north of Salem, where
he was employed. to distant field
apparently intending to spend the
day at work. Six hours later, at 2
o'clock, his body was found hanging
from tree by his employer, who,
fearing an accident when the young
man failed to appear for dinner, went
in search of him.
An investigation by Ralph Crane, Of
Mount Pleasant, coroner Of Henry
county, developed the fact that True.
blood had apparently climbed the
tree, placed the rope around his
neck and then lowered himself. His
feet were but few inches above the
ground.
What prompted the young man to
take his life Is mystery. He left no
note, nor did he, through word or
action during the past few days, be-
tray his intentions. OF seemingly
contented and happy disposition, he
went through life without worry.
| Friends declare they know of no re-
cent disappointment that he might
have experienced.
He suffered but one severe disap-
pointment in his life that friends
can recall. He attempted to enlist
in the army during the war, but was
refused because he was under size.
He was unmarried. His parents
reside at Memphis, Mo. Word of the
suicide of their son was sent TO the
parents, and members of the family
are expected to arrive in Mount
Pleasant to assume charge of the
remains.

crossed constitution was read to the
convention DR.. Franklin then rose
and told the story OF "a certain
French lady, who in dispute with
j her sister, said: I don't know how
/ it happens, sister, but / meet with
nobody but myself that's always in
! the right" He confessed that he
/ had at times doubted the wisdom OF
+ certain provisions which had been
incorporated into the constitution
! but added: "The opinions l have had
Of it's errors, | sacrifice to the public
good. cannot help expressing
a wish that every member Of the
convention who may still have objec-
tions to it would, with me, on this
occasion, doubt little of his own
infallibility-and put his name
to this instrument"
The constitution was then signed
by all members present except three,
Randolph, Mason and Gerry.
While the members were signing.
Dr. Franklin, looking towards the
presidents chair, at the back Of
which a rising sun happened to be
painted observed to a few members
near him that painters had found 1T
difficult to distinguish in their art

said he, often and often, in the
course of the session, and vicissi-

whether it was rising or setting; but
now at length l have the happiness
to know that it is a rising and not
