Thin Blood Saps Energy, Guides
Pepto-Mangan Rebuilds the Blood

Wrestling with a weakened condi-
ton of the blood is desperate strug-
gle. Thin, weary blood deprives the
body of energy and causes a played
out feeling not unlike utter exhaus-
ton. A man with weak blood has not
the full use of his powers. He lacks
decision, and vacillates until he loses
self-confidence.
Some men, and women too, go fal-
teriing along for months scarcely re-
alizing that they need GUIDES Pepto-
Mangan, the bloodbuilder. But when
they have taken it for a while, what
a difference there is in the feelings.
The old-time vigor and the red-blood
hue of good health return. The new
rich blood gets to work, building, for
tifying, lifting spirit up to its nor
NAL standard. Physicians have pre-
scribed Guides Pepto-Mangan for
years as blood builder. Druggists sell
1t in liquid and tablet form. Look for
the name Guides Pepto-Mangan" on

THE HEROIC DEED OF ~OLD
MAN" RICHARDS

One OF the hottest Indian fights In
frontier history was. the, Battle OF
Adobe Walls In the Texas Panhandle
In 1874. The Adobe Walls consisted
Of several huts, and two or three
stores surrounded by a rtockade, and
It was headquarters for q party Of
hunters who killed buftaloes.
The Indians saw with dlsmay the
destruction CAUSED by the white men.
They resolved to destroy the Adobe
Walls and kill the hunters before they
had wiped out the vast herds Of bison.
Early on the morning Of June ~ Q
war party Of Comanches. Kiowas and
Cheyennes. under the leadership Of
Chief Quannah Of the Comanches,
swept down upon the Adobe Walls. The
buffalo hunters were awake, however,
and as the Indians charged the white
men with their heavy Sharps buffalo
guns poured a deadly fre into their
midst. The Indians attacked again
and again. but each time they were
beaten back with heavy loss. Nor did
the hunters escape unharmed.
Three Of them were killed In the
first attack, nd In one Of the stores q
young man named Thurston was shot
through the lungs. Presently his CRY
OF "Waterl Waterr was heard above
the din Of fighting.
The nearert water was 60 yards
away. where q pump stood In the un.
protected open. Z this same store
was an old scout called "Oid Man"
Richards. He heard young Thurston's
CRY.

Richards. I'll 60 fetch bucketfui."
He took q bucket and tossed ft

that had been hiding near by followed
him, whining. Indian bullets cut up
the ground all about them. The pump
was slow. It took two minutes to get

. dozen times as Richards worked the
handle.
He pumped on without raising his
head. The dog was shot down at his
feet. A bullet tore his hat from his
head. Still he pumped on. At last
the bucket was filed. He picked
up his hat. placed It on his head. took
up the bucket and brought II back to
the store without spilling drop.
There was not scratch on him.

THE PASSING OF JAZZ

Delta independents
The impression seems to prevail
that jazz music has seen It's most
popular days. II has q certain quali-
ty of rhythm and humor that pleased
the people for while. But the love
for music is something more than tho
desire to hear eccentric noises. The
instinct that makes people like strong.
ly marked and original rhythm can Be
satisfied by standard music, even bet
ter than by the wailing Of saxaphonea
or beating on tin pans.
Some people carried their antipathy
to jazz so far as to regard Il as pos
itively immoral, tending to excite the
dancing crowd so that they would be-
have in an indecorous manner. Peo-
pie who are insensitive to musical
rhythm will always be stimulated by
music with strongly marked cadences,
but the dancers who are melted by
pronounced rhythms to do pigeon
wings are not usually the sappy crowd
who are hugging their partners. The
objection to jazz was not its wicked
ness, but its crudencss. The purest
jazz is found in the African jungles,
where the natives are beating their
tom-toms.

THE FoorPATH OF PEACE

Exchange:-
To be glad Of life because It gives
you the chance to love and to work
and to play and To- look up at the
stars; to be satisfied with your pos
sessions, but not contented with your.
self until you have made the best Of
them; to despise nothing in the world
except falsehood and meanness, and
70 fear nothing except cowardice and
TO be governed by your admirations
rather than by your disgusts; to
eovet nothing that IL your neighbor's
except his kindness Of heart and
his xentleness Of manner; TO think
seldom Of your enemies and often Of
your friends, and every day Of Christ;
10 spend as much time - you can with
body and with spirit, in Gods out-of-
doors. These are little guideposts to
the footpath Of peace.
