Thin PEOPLE
SHOULD TAKE
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro.Phosphate to Put
on Firm, Healthy Flesh and to In
crease Strength, Vigor and
Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
aIN treatments which are continually be-
ing advertised for the purpose Of making
thin people heshy, developing arms, neck
and bust, and replacing 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
excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually 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 well as
the organic phosphate known among drug
gists as bitro-phosphate. which is inexpen-
sive and is sold by Sherman & Mcconnell
in Omaha and most all druggists under a
guarantee of satisfaction or money back.
By feeding the nerves directly and by sup
plying the body cells with the necessary
phosphoricI food elements. bitro-phosphate
quickly produces a welcome transformation
in the appearance; the increase in weight
frequently being astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries with
it a general improvement in the health.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack OF en-
ergy, which nearly always accompany ex-
cessive thinness, soon disappear, dull eyes
become bright, and pale cheeks glow with
the bloom of perfect health.
CAUTION Although bitro-phosphate
is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness,
sleeplessness and general weakness, lit
should not owing to its remarkable flesh
growing properties, be used by anyone who
does not desire to put on fesh.-Adv.

Good news spreads rapidly and
druggists here are kept busy dis
pensing freezone, the ether discov-
cry of a Cincinnati genius, which is
said to loosen any corn so it lifts out

Ask at any pharmacy for a quar-

cost very little, but is said to be suf-
ficient to rid ones feet of every
hard or soft corn or callus.
You apply just a few drops on the
tender, aching corn and instantly
the soreness is relieved, and soon the
corn is so shriveled that it lifts out
without a particle of pain. 1t is a
sticky substance which dries when
applied and never inflames or even
irritates the adjoining tissue.
This discovery will prevent thou

Autos and Diamonds
5 Form the Big Issue in
Marquette VIII Case

Judge Crawford in county court is
hearing evidence in connection with
the settlement of the estate of Estel-
la Marquette. otherwise known as
Mrs. Al Smith.
The principal question at bar is
the question whether five auto
mobiles used by the Smith TaXicab
company are the sole property OF
that company or whether these ma
chimes should be listed with the
estate.
Diamonds valued at $500 are in
the issue, but it is not probable that
their present ownership by Smith
will be seriously contested.
Mitchell Richard of Elk Point, S.
d., father of Estella Marquette, and
Laurencia Cyr. are plaintiffs OF the
present action.
The Marquette woman shot her
self on a Saturday and died the next
day, making her will on her death
bed.

the crew bailing frantically, she
could even see his face, a white
smutch in the rushing confusion. He
was going to attempt something
something foolhardy and like Monte
Bracken, the dramatic. And the next
moment it came. In order to pick up
precious seconds and not pinch her,
Bracken had come down under full
sail to the leeward of the mark. To
come around and take his sail on the
other side and thus around the mark
meant the loss of the seconds he

finish he prepared to jibe her in a
gale that was blowing 80 to IS miles
an hour.

moment, grabbed Amy's arm in inn
