Health.
The Great Food Value of This
Old Fashioned Prescription

for All the Family.

Following the grip epidemic which
swept the country comes a period of
great danger to those who have suffered
from the disease even in its milder forms,
who find themselves unable to regain nor
NAL strength and health.
This weakness which seems to make
recovery so hard and long delayed is a
period of special danger, because the re-
sisting power of the system is lowered
and the patient has little strength to
fight off colds, coughs and other more
serious illness.
During this time of danger, the safe
tonic for all the family is Father Johns

wholesome food medicine contains

was said, and the history of uncle and
nephew interested her. Besides that,
she discovered among some favorite
books Wallace had saved from the
wreck unique works on botany, and
to his surprise and pleasure one after
noon Wallace found the charming
young lady in question immersed In
one of the same. This new friend
brought an appreciated element into
the life of the young man.
He found Ora in the living rooms
back Of the store one evening when he
came home, preparing a meal, and the
domestic ensemble warmed his heart.
'T'm going to infiict my cookery

occasion only" Miss Scofield advised
Wallace smilingly. ut is your uncIes

Mr.. Lorne seems greatly pleased with
the arrangement"
1t was after the meal that Arson
L0rne sat back in his chair, drowsy,
dreamy, infinitely content He had q
vision-and 1t came true. The old dis
carded securities turned out half good
in this dream, His nephew and Ora
Scofeld were fast becoming something
more than friends. Fortune smiling,
step by step the way back to a com
potency if not opulence was gained,
Ora a bride, and a beautiful future
woven out of blighted past-all this
was to be, and came about when the
June bride roses were in their sweet,
est bloom.

Our readers will doubtless remember
the sensational trial of the case of State
Va. Anna Felch, at the June term OF
Orange county court in 1917, which re-
suited in an acquittal of the. accused
woman. The case went to supreme court
on exceptions by the state and the su-
preme court has sent it back for retrial
in county court, on the ground that err
rors against the state were shown to
have been committed at the former trial,
The case is now back in supreme court,
on writ of habeas corpus, brought by
Attorneys Hoar and Fay of Barre and
Darling of Chelsea, who appear for Mrs.
Felch. on the ground that the supreme
court had no jurisdiction of the question
on which the case was remanded to cOun-
ty court. The matter will be heard by
the supreme court at Montpelier, Feb. 26,
and it is expected that eX-Atty. Gen.
Herbert G. Barber of Brattleboro and
States Attorney John c. Sherburne OF
Randolph will appear for the state in
these proceedings. An interesting ques-
ton is presented in the case as to wheth-
err those interested in Mrs. Felch's pres
ent restraint are not liable for false inn
pTisQnment.

Consumption of Oil
 Exceeds Production

There is a constantly widening gap between the production and the con- sumption of the crude oil in the United States This gap appeared during the year 1912 and has con- tinually grown larger since that time. In 1912 the production for the coun- try was 220,000,000 barrels and the was 225,000,000. The production last year was 34O,000,000 barrels and the consumption was 96,0OO,000 barrels.
 There has also been a gradual in- crease in the imports of petroleum and petroleum products, virtually all the imports coming from Mexico. I'm ports in 1912 were 100000 barrels. Total imports had increased until last year, when it reached 41,0O0,0O0 barrels.
 Production in Mexico has been gradually increasing since 1911, with the single exception of 1914, when the output was 5,000,000 barrels less than the previous year. Mexico's out put in 1911 was about .14,80O,000 and in 1918 it had increased to 63,800,00O barrels.

LAW SUIT AFFECTS
 OIL LAND WORTH
 ABOUT S5Oo,00o
Texas Company Sues Banner Company to Obtain
 Five Acres

Wichita Falls, Taxts, Aug. 30-Oii land valued at $500,0O is involved in suit filed here by the Texas Stand ard Oilcompany against the Banner Oil and Gas company, in the effort to have the defendant company sell to plaintiff five acres in block S6 of Red river valley lands, which plaintiff claims it contracted to pur- chase from c. M. Beckner; author- zed agent of the Banner Oil and Gas company.
 The petition, which is brief, has attached thereto the contract or agreement of sale. It is alleged that August 26 Beckner, as agent of the defendant company, accepted $1 ,000 to bind the sale. Under the contract, the plaintiff was to pay the defend ant $l5,000 to reimburse it for ex- penses incident to drilling operations already started on the land.
 It is set forth that the Banner com- pang began drilling two wells on the land some time ago and they are in- cluded in the sale, the Banner com pany to complete them and drill two more wells all to a depth of 1700 feet unless oil in payink quantities is found at less depth.
 The plaintiffs under the contract, were to pay the Banner company three-fourths of the net proceeds of the seven-eighths of the oil it received deducting one-eighth for royalty to the owner.
 The three-fourth of net profit was to have been paid until an aggregate of $500,000 was paid, after which payments were to cease.
 It was stipulated that the entire months whether the amount of oil sold totaled that amount or not.
 The Texas Standard claims it has offered repeatedly to pay the defend- ant the $15,000 is agreed today; that it is anxious to carry out it's part of the contract, but that the defendant company refuses now to close the deal.
 Judgment is asked, so that the Texas Standard may obtain title to the land, drill for oil upon it and com- plete it's contract. The plaintiff as serts it is now ready to pay the re- sidue of the sum, but is prevented by the refusal of the Banner Oil and

Supposed Dry Hole
 Proves a Producer

Wichita Falls, Texas, Aug. 30- Deepening of supposedly dry hole in the southwest quarter of block 75 has been accomplished by the Prairie Hill Oil company promoters and the drilling contractors with the result it is securing good production, ac- cording to Pat Pope, secretary of the company who on yesterday amour, ced the bringing in of No. 1 Renner of the Prairie Hill, in this same block. The we'll in question, the name of which MT. Pope does not state, offsets the Prairie Hill to the south. It was brought by the Prai- rie Hill promoters and the drillers and drilled 50 feet deeper, MT. Pope stated.
 According to Mr. Pope's statement of the condition of the company's affairs, the officers of the Prairie Hill have pursued a policy little out of the ordinary, in that when the IF producing wells on Sunshine Hill ceased producing, the officers put ul the money for three. wells in the northwest Burkburnett extension this we'll on tre Renner tract being one o1 that three. Other drilling operations are planned, it is stated
 This company has 90 acres leased out of the Dale farm, where the Cauble test is being drilled. There are also other tests in this vicinity which are considered worth watching.

LITTLE ROCK MEN LEASE 2,133 ACRES
 TEXAS OIL LAND
C. C. Williams and l.. w. Cope land Get Acreage in Mon
 tague for Prosjecting.

Fort Worth, Texas, Aug. 3O.-C. c. Williams and L. W. Copeland, both of Little Rock, Arkansas, were in Fort Worth yesterday on their way home after a visit to the Wichita Falls and Burkburnett oil fields.
 They leased 7, 133 acres of land in Montague county, on which they plan to begin drilling about January l. These lands are on the structural divide, which runs northeast and southwest, and lies between St. Jo and Montague. The geological for nation is very promising for oil, ae cording to the reports of geologist who has been over this block of leases.
 At present there are four or five wells drilling in that county and a strong flow of gas was discovered near Nocona about two weeks ago, and the well is being drilled deeper and the indication for oil is fine.
 Messrs. Williams and Copeland will make a thorough test on their leases and have contracted to go $500 feet A geologist will be employed to go over the leases and select drilling SlLe. Ills Will De uOIe .WlIHlu CHe next few weeks and immediately after this report is made operations will begin.
 The workings of the new electrical drill now being used in Texas is being watched by Williams and Copeland and it is probable that if the electri- cal drill is pronounced a success, they will use this kind of drill to prospect in Montague county.
