Leavenworth, Kan. July 29.-One

equipment valued at $4,000 will be
installed. Two hundred and fifty high
class mechanics will be employed in
the big shops. Work on the building
started recently.
The motor shops represent the
largest improvement the war depart
ment is making at the fort. Half a
dozen other construction contracts,
however, aggregate in cost $685., 200.
They are:
Remodeling of barracks and other

ASPARAGUS CAUSES BLUES"
But the Eaters System Is at Fault
Says Osteopath.

Cleveland, o., July 29.-Asparagus
causes the blues" said DR.. Charles
Hazard of New York city, former
president of the American Osteo-
pathic convention. This is not the
fault of the asparagus, however, ex-
planned the doctor He did not con-
denim asparagus, but explained that
when it does cause ''the blues" it is
because the persons system is already
clogged with its own impurities. He
said:
The asparagus is the last straw
which, added to the toxic state of the
system, produces a physical state of
the brain and nerves which is re-
Elected as the blues This hap
pens because the mechanistic state
of the persons physical system is
such that the organs of elimination
have not been capable of doing their
work well for such a long time that
the system has become poisoned with
its own debris. But had the system
been kept always in good mechanical
condition, elimination would always
have proceeded normally, the system
would have kept clear of poisons, and
no bad effects would have followed
the eating of asparagus, for the nor
NAL mechanism would readily throw
off the acid of the vegetables"

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr. James H. Allen suffered for years
with rheumatism. Many times this ter
rible disease left him helpless and unable
to work.
He finally decided after years Of cease
less study, that no one can be free from
rheumatism until the accumulated impure
ties, commonly called uric acid deposits,
were dissolved in the joints and muscles
and expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians. made experiments and finally
compounded a prescription that quickly
and completely banished every sign and
symptom of rheumatism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery to others
who took it. with what might be called
marvellous success After years of urging
he decided to let sufferers everywhere
know about his discovery thru the news
papers. lly-McFarland Drug Co.. $50 and
