AS provider for $50 widows and
father to 800 orphans, Charles Page
of Tulsa, Okla, is realizing here the
dream OF life that matches fiction
a life with a moral woven in.
The story of his rise from nothing
to millions is really the story OF a
VOW made in boyhood, broken IN
youth and fulfilled in maturity. IL
is the story of success and failure al
ternating.
Charles Pages father died when
the boy was 10, and most OF the ram
ily's property went to pay the doctor
bill.
AS the lad struggled for living
in little Wisconsin village he prom
ised himself that once he attained
wealth he would help others in the
circumstances he suffered then.
Made Fortune.
After years of adversely he mace
his way to the Northwest and TOOK
up the lumber business.
Zone morning awakened and real
lied 1 was no longer poor he salo,
'I knew l had reached the point at
which / had promised myself l Woulo
start helping others. And knew l
was not doing it."
The VOW forgotten Charles rage
went ahead making money. A 1ew
months passed and deal turned
wrong. He went "broke." He LOOK
ed upon the wreckage of his fortune
and once more vowed he would help
Others il he were able-again.
His second success came after ne
had been through the Cripple Creek
gold rush and had come to Oklahonla
and the oil fields.
Builds Orphans Home.
On the present site of Sand Springs,
seven miles from here, he had a tent
pitched. He sent a family of several
orphaned children there and hlred
man to care for them. From that time
on the Sand Springs Orphans Home
has grown.
The Page foundation is not an
"asvlum." 1t is truly home. Chll-
dren taken there consider 1t sucn.
Some of them marry from it. Boys
are given a start in business. Scores
find the work they prefer in the var

The Appian Way.

The Appian way Is the Oldest and
most famous of the Roman military
roads. 1t was commenced by Appius
Claudius Caecus. while censor, in 312
B. c., and originally extended from the
Porta CapenaI at Rome to Capua. a
distance of 100 miles,. In 80 B. c., the
Appian way was continued to Brum-
disium, 800 miles from Rome BY
means Of it's branches 1t connected
Rome with all southern Italy. Dur
ing the rule of Pope Plus TX (1S46-
1879 part of this road, extending
about eleven miles out of Rome, was
laid bare. 1t is remarkable for its
pavement, which consists OF large .hex-
agonal blocks of 1basalt; but more
especially for the ruins Of the once
magnificent tombs that line its side.
The central part of the roadway, 10
feet wide. was designed for the pas
sage of infantry, while the two side
passages, each also 10 feet wide, were
used for horsemen and vehicles. The
Romans called the Appian way Regina
Viarum Queen Of Roads). :,

Minnesota this year by the American

RECIPE TO CLEAR
A PIMPLY SKIM
Pimples Are Impurities Seeking
an Outlet Through Z
Skin Pores "

Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and impur-
tiles which are generated in the
bowels and then absorbed into the
blood through, the very ducts which
should absorb only nourishment to
sustain the body. < III. -
It is the function: of the kidneys to-
filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in. the form of urine,
but in many, instances the bowels
create more toxins and impurities
than the kidneys can eliminate, then
the blood uses the skin pores as the
next best means of getting rid Of
these impurities which often break
out all over the skin. in the form of
pimples: ear }S. s%'~'
The surest way to clear the skin
Of these eruptions, says noted au-
thority, is to get from any pharmacy
about four ounces Of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of
hot water each !. morning before
breakfast for one week. This will
prevent the formation of toxins in
the bowels. It also stimulates the
ing them to filter the blood Of i'm
purities and clearing the skin of
pimples. a .'-..5.'s 80. 49,. ~ a
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with
lithia. Here you have a pleasant,
effervescent drink which usually
makes pimples disappear; cleanses
the blood and is excellent for the
kidneys as well. ~. X. ~ /
