BORDER TOWN HAS
SPASMODIC LIFE
SWISS FRONTIER HAS
MYSTERIOUS OPENING
French Systems Cuts Travel
But Questionables
Still Pass.

BELLGARDE. Swiss Border, Dec.
1S. CBy mail is the city
| OF watchful waiting. 1t isn't very
often anyone compliments this little
group of houses and railroad be-
tween mountain peaks straddling the
rayine of the Rhone by calling it a
city.
Bellgarde is the last stop In France
on the way to Switzerland, and every
one going either way is stopped here
to be examined. The point was prob
ably picked because you can get out
in no way except by railroad, unless
you climb Alpine mountain peaks COW
cred with snow. Bellgarde is an ideal
jumping off point.
Your papers are examined and your
baggage, and you are informed that
the frontier is closed. 1t has been
closed since the war began. except for
day or SO, when the frontier is sud-
denly opened on a few hours notice.
Then is the time to rush across.
Orders Mysterious.
There is no set time for opening
the rontier, and no reason for choos-
ing any certain time. There are no
suspicious characters to avoid becausel
everyone in Bellgarde is allowed to-
grab his baggage and Chamber on the
train for Geneva No one knows just
who opens the border or why-a mys-
terlous order comes from somewhere,
and those who have been willing TO-
stick around and wait" are allowed
to proceed to Switzerland.
Bellgarde is alternately filled to the
brim with people and emptied to the
hotel keepers and few townspeople.
The night before the frontier opens
there are people sleeping in the station
cars, and verywhere. for want of
rooms. The night it is opened there
are rooms everywhere. bare of occu-
bl the closing of the frontier.
Questionables Still Cross.
This peculiar French system has
had the desired effect, according to
officials. of discouraging travel to
Switzerland, though it has done Moth
ing to keep questlonabIes from cross7'
ing. Frequently it has meant serious
delays in important business when Of
ficials have been held up. once the
frontier remained tight for more than
25 days. There was suffering among
tho watchful walters, many Of whom
had the best of reasons. for passing at
once. But it made no difference at
BelIgarde. Finally. the mysterious
word came from certain French
headquarters, and pent-up. Bellgarde
was relieved of its ill-humored popu-

HOW A SICK DOCTOR
RECLAIMED HIS HEALTH
Young doctor ~ old told by several eminent ply
scans that he could not live but discovered a
markable formula that restored his health

In 1898 DR.. A. L. REFUSING of
Akron, Ohio, had just completed
his course at medical college. He
had paid his way through medical
college by working nights as a
telegrapher. Overwork and over
study had undermined his health,
and he consulted many specialists,
but they all pronounced him in
durable and said that he could live
only a few months.
But DR.. REFUSING determined that
if he must die, he would find the
cause, since none of the physicians
could diagnose his disease posi-
lively.
Knowing that without oxygen
the body dies, he began thorough
investigation Of the effect of oxy-
gen on the blood. He studied Prof.
Virchow's famous "Cell Theory"
which proves that the body is only
a collection of cells and that there
are twelve cell-salts that nourish
and maintain the cells Of the body.
Just as a flower droops and dies
for lack of water, so the cells wither
and die for lack of their natural
cell-salts.
He knew that the red blood cells
carry the iron in the blood and
that iron attracts oxygen just as a
magnet attracts steel. He learned
that by increasing the amount of
iron in the blood, the iron at
tracted the oxygen from the air in
the lungs into the blood exactly as
the magnet attracts steel. He found
that oxygen oxidizes or burns up
the impurities, germs, and torn
down cells that are found in the
blood.
Through careful research he
learned the cell-salts that nature
requires to feed the cells and main
tain health. This led to the dis
covery that the health of the body
is governed entirely by the health
of the blood and that if the blood
is rich in oxygen, plasma and iron,
and supplied with the natural cell
salts that nourish and maintain the
health, vigor and vitality of the
cells, the whole b" > CLOVIS with

What man, woman, or child, it

woman with her three children was
seen coasting on Sunday. She was
not the only rejuvenated grownup.
One of Omaha's brainiest, best
dressed men suddenly found himself
at the scene of snow romp the

and was wearing his Sunday"
clothes. All this was forgotten and
for all hour he Slid" rolled, ran and
tumbled around on a white hillside

"Men are only boys grown tall,

Sunday for its regular hike, and
goodness only knows how many
angels they made in the snow, or
how many games of fox and geese
were played.

Relentlessly DR.. REFUSING made
his scientific researches and inves-
LEGATIONS until his efforts were
crowned with success. He discov-
cred a formula which combines the
natural cell-salts that feed and
nourish the cell of the tissues,
nerves, fluids, brain and bones Of
the body and rapidly increases the
supply of oxygen, iron and plasma
of the red blood cells, which re-
rvitalize and rebuild the entire body.
This formula-discovered in q
desperate effort to preserve his
own life-proved so successful that
he gradually restored his health and
soon become strong and vigorous.
DR.. REFUSING is now AZ Years old
and his rudy cheeks, bright eyes
and vigorous health are irrefutable
evidences of the strengthening,
blood purifying, health building
properties of his formula.
For nearly 20 years DR.. REFUSING
has prescribed this formula for
thousands of patients in his private
practice with wonderful success.
The medical profession has recog-
nized it's therapeutic value for the
treatment of diseases.
So many people have been bene-
fitted and restored to health by DR..
Reusing's formula and he is so
thoroughly convinced Of its thera-
peutic action by thousands Of case
records in his own practice, that he
has decided to supply this formula,
which he has named "REOL0," to
the public through registered drug
gists. who are licensed distributors
of the DR.. A. L. REFUSING Labora-
tories, Akron, Ohio.
Each package of "REOLO" con-
tains 100 tasteless tablets, enough
for two weeks treatment. 1t Is not

Dyspeptic Soup Eaters Can
Change Their Spoon for a
Knife and Fork and With
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
the World Smiles Again.

Ask former dyspeptic who tried
the Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets plan
what wonderful relief they afford.
Instead of the grouchy bowl of soup
at home and the AFFECT terror at
the sight of good things to eat at
a party supper, the soup spoon has
been replaced by the knife and fork.
This comes from giving the diges-
tive processes required assistance.
These tablets digest food They
stimulate natural digestive secre-
tons. Thus the food keeps on idi-
gesting, doesn't lie in the stomach
to sour and create all sorts of dis
tresses. And they act as soon as
they enter the stomach, hence re-
lief even in dyspepsia may be looked
dor almost at once.
II you have been troubled with
gassiness, sour stomach, water

Heart Beats
By A. X.

Yesterday
The fangs of Pain
Clawed deep wounds
Into my soul-
From the Internal regions
Came the, grief
Which killed belief :
In God and man.
And Things.
My friends
On my fingers
| counted
Their faithfulness
Was but
A changing mirage
Transient and untrue
Against all reason
1onged for Love
When too we'll I knew
The grief it bears.
Adrift
On the sea of impulses
My heart
Was but flotsam
From the tide of emotions
Drifting away from
The Ship of Hope.
But
Today the world
Is a merry-go-round-
And the starters whistle
A signal from Future
To 60"
There is an ether
Filling the air
Since early morn
When the dawn broke
Shell pink
Draped with opal blues
And / became mother
Of another child
A child of the brain
A new idea.
The pain
The grief
The mood
Must come
The darkest hour
Is before the dawn
So
If from these moods
And sad depressions
A worthwhile fancy
Finds the light
Then l shall gladly g
Pay the price
The price of pain .
To mother the infant
OF a great idea.
