WHEN ANDY LEWIS FOUGHT
 CHIEF CORNSTALK

The battle of Point Pleasant on September 10, 1774, was the first "all- American" battle ever fought on this continent. Europeans had taken part In all important engagements before French and Indians against British and Americans. But when Andy Lewis and his bor1erers batled with Chief Oornstalk and his Shawnees, it was strictly native affair
 Lewis vas born in Ireland, but he had come to this country while still . child, and he was no less an Amer. ican than the frontiersmen he led. He fought with George Washington in the French and Indian war and he became one of the greatest leaders of the co ionial troops. He was six feet two inches tall and pc erful.
 Lewis was chosen by Lord Dunmore in 1774 to lead a picked body of men against the Shawnees while Dunmore attacked them from another direction Chief Cornstalk knew the two armies were coming and decided to defeat one
  yorite trick of Napoleon.
 The Shawnees attacked Lewis army early one morning. Lewis had taken out his pipe when the first shot was fired. He ccolly finished lighting his pipe and then gave the orders to his men, who rushed to meet the Indians.
 Both sides fought "Indianfashion,' ' dodging from tree to tree and taking advantage of every bit of cover. The fighting was at a close range and in the smoke-filled forest frontiersman and Indian came hand to hand-toma- hawk against hunting knife.
 Late in the afternoon the Indians gave way, but there was no rout Cornstalk was too good a general for that and the Americans paid dearly for every foot of ground they won. That night Lewis held possession of the battlefield, but he had won 1t at a terrible cost-75 men killed and 14O wounded. Andy Lewis and his bor- derers had won the greatest Indian battle in early American history.
 Andy Lewis did not have chance to make a name for himself in the War of the Revolution which soon fol lowed. He was passed over for gen. erals of less ability and he died in 170O, an embittered, broken-hearted old man. The fate of his opponent, Cornstalk, had also been a sad one. In 1777 he came to fort on the Ohio on a friendly mission. He was arrest d and thrown into prison. While there the great Shawnee leader was treacherously murdered by mob of soldiers in revenge for the death of 2 comrads who had been killed by h. dians.

WHY SOME FOODS
 STARYE YOU
Rundown People Found To Be Suf- fering From Lack of Vitamines- Now Supplied by New Yeast Treatment in Tablet
 Form.

You can eat hearty meals all your life and still have a starved system. Scientists have now learned that the most essential of all food clements Vltamlnes-are lacking in most mod ern foods and must be supplied in special form unless we are to become weak and run down. Vitamines are tiny little vegetable organisms that .eXert a powerful influence on health land vitality. Without them no food will nourish. Only recently it has been learned that ordinary yeast is |almost entirely composed of vitami- nes, and that the addition of yeast to our diet renews the health or run- down people, aids in building tissue, and even causes signs of old age to diminish. Yeast has also proven a splendid remedy for skin troubles, boils and pimples. Experts in the greatest medical institutions have es- tablished beyond question the mirac- ulous results of yeast-taking. But all yeast is not equally beneficial. The Icomon yeast 'ake. for instance, is only make-shift containing about 8 per cent starch and water and only about 20 per cent of yeast. The sci entific yeast remedy is a concentration of the liquid brewers yeast, com- bined with tonics.
 A group of chemists have at last evolved a new formula containing lconcentrated yeast of high vitamine- strength, combined with iron and other tonics which make the yeast more effective. This preparation, in convenient tablet form, is called IRONIZED YEAST, and is the ap- proved vitamine tonic treatment for rundown condition, lack of energy, lneurasthenic symptoms, such as in- !somnia, weakness, etc. 1RONIZED YEAST costs but little more by the dose than common yeast. Each pack |age contains 10 days treatment and costs only $1.00-or only 10c day.
 It is pleasant to take and will not nauseate. Buy a package of IRON- HEED YEAST today from your drug gist. You will feel the good effects
 before you have half finished the first box. Put up in sanitape form to retain it's purity and full strength. Special directions for children in each package. (Advt.)
