men, naming Luetta Shafer as bene.
ficiary in the policy. The plaintiff
states that Luetta Shafer died Jan.
1, 1920, leaving Harry B. Shafer and
Florence McPeek sole heirs at law.
Plaintiff states that the said James
E. Shafer was sick with typhoid

legged they gained certain ascendency
over him and that they fraudulently
conspired and did influence the said
James E. Shafer to make an assign.
ment of the insurance to them.
The plaintiff therefore asks that
the assignment be adjudged fraudu-
lent and cancelled, and for all o.ner
relief to which she may be entitled.

Is Life a Gamble

They say that life is gamble;
but we feel sure that the gamble part
depends upon the individual Stand
ing IN front Of a local garage the
other day Our glances fell upon a
down-and-cUtsT. We knew him when
he was boy, in fact we often swan
in the old sWimmin' hole together.
He went to school with US, but he
left before entering high school to
take q job. He got restless and want
ed to begin earning money, although
his parents were able and willing to
put him through school. He was
getting a pay envelope on Saturdays
while the rest of us were broke. To
day he is alone in the world, doing
such odd jobs as he can pick up when
an empty purse and the pangs of hun
ger drive him to seek employment.
The rest of the time he loafs around
on the street corners. AS this old
friend of Our boyhood passed, nice
car rolled by the garage and in it we
saw another chap, who, in the old
days, had dotted his waist and trous-
ers to be 1.-The first one in" He sat
at the steering wheel and his wife
and children were with him. They
were we'll dressed and prosperous.
In MS teens this youth went to High
School and when he graduated he
ey, as to learn a trade. He mastered
the trade and before many years he
owned the business in which he had
made his start Today he has home
of his own, money in the bank and
happy family. 1t is easy to be guess
ed that he is making good. Is life
gamble or is it a question of what
you make it?
Brains" you say. "One lad had
brains, the ether was less fortunate"
Not entirely. One lad worked and
waited and saved. The other loafed
and trifled and spent. That is the
real trouble with most Of US. Too
much spending and too little earn
ing; too much extravaganza and too
little economy. We have never
known substantial success that was
not founded upon bedrock of hard
work and thrift.-EX.

STARCH OUT
OF A FELLOW
Working Hard Every Day Without
Let-up Wears You Out in Time
YOU NEED A TONIC
Pepto- Mangan Makes Rich Red Blood
and Lifts You Out of
Bad-Health Ruts

There are days when you feel down
right sick. You think you could't feel
any worse. Yet, as far as you know,
there's nothing the matter with you.
FL ON the time you get up in the
morning till you go to bed at night
you are tird. You feel as though
you'd like to sit down and do moth
ing. You look tired and pale and
haggard. You get careless about your
dress.
No wonder. Your blood is all clog
ged up with poison: Your power of
resistance is at low ebb. Your blood
needs food. 1t needs the help that the
tonic, Pepto-Mangan, will
give it. Instead of feeling exhausted
and tired out for months, you will
soon pick right up and feel well and
strong again. And with good red
blood you are able to fight off all
ments.
Pepto-Mangan is widely and heart
lily endorsed by physicians. 1t is eff
fective and easy to take. 1t is pre-
pared in both liquid and tablet form,
and you can take one or the other
and receive the same benefits.
Sold at any drug store. But be
sure you get the genuine Pepto-Man-
gan-"Gude's." Ask for it by the
full name and be sure the full name,
Guides Pepto-Mangan," is on the

celebrated police court justice, who

For the past two years he had been

Justice John Crutchfeld was edu-

natural wit and peculiar understand

have been written and stage imper-

Justice John enjoyed perhaps the
widest reputation of any man in the

the witnesses and lawyers, the police
men and the many others who fire.

sharp, and there are few who ever
managed to get the best of him in a

at times he appeared hard, stern and
bitter, those who knew his nature
rarely had fault to find with his rul-
Iings.-EX.

My Dear Friends:
will write you few lines to let
you know how I am. I am not very
we'll, and in the hospital just now,
and will stay in hospital this winter.
1t is steam heated, and I don't have
to go out into the cold if don't want
to.
This is the place for an old soldier.
We get plenty to eat, and | have a
good feather-bed to sleep on. Our
beds are made up for us and we don't
have anything to do, and are treated
all right. Some of them don't like
it here, but they would not like it in
heaven. I am well satisfied and
think it is fine place. Our beds
are good and we don't have to go out
to our meals. There are fourteen in
this ward, two of them can't get out
of bed.
l think my friends in Monterey
have forgotten me as they never
write. I wrote to some, and would
like to hear from them.
Mr.. Wood, send me the Recorder,
please, and give my love to all in
Monterey. A. J: Simmons
