furnace heated by some method as
yet unknown to burn the trunks of
his victims and destroyed their limbs
in the fire places of his villa.
One of the most important dis
coveries made in the investigation
of this mysterious case has been a
mass of stones piled against a wall
of the villa. These stones evident
ly belong to a furnace and clinging
to them, it is said, were found bits
of melted glass in which were pieces
of bones which physicians have de-
Clared to be human. These bones are
alleged to include three fragments
of human skulls.
The floors of the villa are now
being cleared and it is reported they
show stains which are presumed to
have been caused by blood Suspi-
cious stains, it is said. have been
found on pieces of furniture in the
house.

cALoMEL SALIvATES
AND MAKES YOU SICK
Acts like dynamite on a sluggish liver
and you lose days work

There's no reason why a person
should take sickening, salivating cal
omel when a few cents buys large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone-a
perfect substitute for calomel.
1t is pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
surely as calomel, but it doesn't make
you sick and can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is dangerous drug. 1t is
mercury and attacks your bones.
Take a dose of nasty ralomel today
and you will feel weak, sick and nau-
seated tomorrow. Don't lose a days
work. Take spoonful of Dodson's
Liver Tone instead and you will wake
up feeling great. No more bilious
ness, constipation, sluggishness, head
ache, coated tongue or sour stomach.
Your druggist says if you don't find
Dodson's Liver Tone act better than
horrible calomel your money is wait
ing for you. Adv. 8.

A GOOD INDIAN DEAD

1t used to be said that the only
good Indian was a dead Indian. If
this is true, Johnny Mine, the Kicka-
poo chief, must be very good indeed.
He is dead, but will not be buried for
six months, as the money from his c&-
tate will not be available to buy
presents for all the tribe and to pay
for the dance at his funeral.
Here is part Of the program Of
the funeral rites: A peck of corn will
be buried at his head to sustain him
until he reaches the happy hunting
grounds. There, say the Indians,
will be much food awaiting Johnny,
for during his long life he has killed
dog each spring and sent him along
ahead to forage for game against the
day his master arrived.
The president Of the Aero Club
says ten years hence the airship will

MISS CAVELL'S LAST HOURS

The British nurse, Miss Edith Ca
veil, took the sacrament at the hands
of an English clergyman, the night
before she died. This gentleman,
Rev. Gahan, gave an account of the
solemn ordinance upon his recent re-
turn to England.
In his account of the sad interview
with Miss Cavell, he said: 81 went
to the cell door and it opened and
Miss Cavell stood in the doorway. l
had gone prepared for a very try
ing scene. There stood my friend
looking as calmly sweet as anyone
could look. She was unchanged, ex-
cept that she appeared better for the
enforced rest in prison. The warden
withdrew and we were not interrupt
ed.
II remember practically all she
said. She was thankful for the quiet
time as her life had been such a
burden and rush in many respects.
She was not sorry to go, for her life
had contained so much trial that she
was weary beyond endurance. They
r., We treated me very kindly here"
The little communion vessels were
placed on chair, and after the SER
vice, Mr.. Gahan recited, "Abide with
Me-" Miss Cavell joining under her
breath.
II stood up and we were face to
face. l said, Goodbye. She was look
ing slightly strained, but nothing
more. We shook hands and smiled,
and l added, we shall meet again.
Goodbye"
The crime of hurrying the .execu-
ton, according to Mr.. Gahan, be-
longed to the military governor of
Brussels, who would not wait to COM
municate with headquarters.

Mr.. HEFLIN ON THE LEAGUE

Hon. Thomas J. Hefin, of Alabama
in a recent convention, was on his
mettle when referring to the propa-
ganda spreading through the coun-
try to discredit President Wilson.
Mr.. Hefiin said the propagandists will
fail because the league of nations is
the only machinery that will prevent
bloody wars. The enemies of the
league of nations are the munitions
makers of this country, who expect
to sell millions Of dollars worth of
guns to foreign countries. In %
years the United States would have
to raise another army of two mlIlow
men, but this will not happen. In"
grandest disciple of democracy that
ever lived is seated at the peace table
over there in France to stop them.

1t has been custom among indi-
viduals who have strong prejudice
against the Catholic church and also
dislike our great President, to make
the claim that President Wilson ga
vored Catholicism in preference to
the church to which he and his father
and his grandfather belonged. These
peopl, should tanc some notice of
the facts. He has persistently and
triumphantly opposed the claim of
Italy, Catholic country, the home
of the Pope, and with Great Bri 4
and France both favorable to It;Jly.
Mr.. Wilson stood up for the little
nations in their sea coast rights that
Italy would deprive them of. All the
abuse that could be imagined was
hurled at The great American prcsi-
dent because in this instance he stood
FOR the rights of the lit.le nations
against the proud old Catholic nation
of Italy. President Wilson rccog-
n.zed, and the Allies all recognized
the good work done by Italy in help
ing to whip the Germans, but when
she showed the grasping disposition
to ride rough shod over the little ra-
tions, Italy found President WilsoN
standing like a stone will against her
seedy designs.
The result of Mr.. Wilson'S goUi
work at the peace table may be that
many of the smaller nations may be-
come free and independent, throwing
off the yoke of autocratic rulers.
When the lcaven Of democracy gets
to working in Europe there is no
telling where it will stop, nor how
many countries now ruled by kings
and emperors may become republics,
modelled after the great American re-
public, and the credit and honor for
his result will belong to Woodrow
Wilson, the great American president

EVERYBODY'S LONESOME

Way down deep within their hearts
Evcrybody's lonesome;
Far within their secret parts
Everybody's lonesome;
Makes no difference how they smile,
How they live or what their style;
Once in every little while
Everybody's lonesome.
People first in big affairs
Even they are lonesome;
Maybe like to put on airs,
Just the same they're lonesome.
Men for whom existence blends
Every good; who gain all ends,
Still reach out their hands for friends
Everybody's lonesome.
Women, silk-clad, jcwclcd fine,
Yes, they too are lonesome;
When their gems the brightest shine
They are just as lonesome.
Some must serve and some command,
All still seek with cropping hand
Love and friends who understands
Everybody's lonesome.
Though your gift of friendships
small,
Everybody's lonesome;
1t may answer someone's call,
Someone who is lonesome;
Give, and give with might and main,
Give your hands, and join the chain,
And your gift will be your gain
Sometime, when you're lonesome.

The Blacksmiths Bridge

General Stonewall Jackson wanted
bridge across the Shenandoah over
which his army could pass.
He ordered his engineers to build
bridge.
He also called his wagonmaster,
blacksmith, and gave him instruct
ions to get the wagon train across.
At daylight the blacksmith came
and woke up General Jackson and
said, General we've got all the ,wag-
ons and artillery across"
He said, "How did you do it?"
"Well," said the blacksmith, 81 had
some men to pile up rocks in the mid
die of the stream and we got some
logs and laid them on the bank and
on the rocks in the steam and put
rails across and drove over"
General Jackson said, "Where are
the engneers?"
They're up in the tents yonder
