The fomc of the Soul
; In olden times it was believed that
| the seat of the soul was the stomach,
most likely for the reason that a man
is never so completely used up as when
his stomach is out of order. For the

there is nothing quite so prompt and
satisfactory as Chamberlin's Tablets.
They strengthen the stomach and en-
able it to perform its functions natur-

CONGRESS FIXES SIZE OF J. $. ARMY
Resolution Adopted by Both Branches Limits Number of Mena at 175.00O Enlisting Will Cease-M Measure
 Urged by Economy.

Washington, Jan. 18s-The size of the U. s. army has been definitely fixed by Congress at 175, 5,D00 men,
 By vote of 41 to B, the Senate set aside it's decision of last week to reduce the army of 150,DO0 men. Upon reconsideration of the vote the Senate defeated a motion Co fix the army at 150,000 instead of f75, ,0O0, as proposed in a resolution hv Senator New, Republican of Indiana.
 After rejecting the plan for an army of 150,000 men, the Senate adopted the original resolution direct ing the secretary of war to stop army recruiting until the army is cut to 175.000 men.
 Just after the Senate had voted tO fix the army limit at f75 900, the house today adopted 285 to 4, reSO- lution by chairman Kahn of the miIi- tary committee directing the secre- tary of war to cease enligtmenta until the army reaches the same figure.
 The fight over the size of the future regular army was renewed after Chairman Wadsworth of the military committee. and other proponents of m army of 175,000 men recalled the recently adopted New resolution pro- posing to cut the force to 150,0OD.
 Senator Reed, Democrat. of Mis- uni prom tly attacked tne i5O QOO igure as too large
 Tha resolution vas urged nn the ground of economy It is z pected to save the government approximately $f0,000,D00 year. The size of the army today is about 235 ,000 man. Uh- der the provisions Of thu solutitn Y will reach the 175,009 riinim ins about next September.
 The Senate's change of mind was influenced largely by the t>stimony of Secretary of War Baker and General Pershing before the Military Affairs Committee and by the telegrams of protest against such radical redue- tlon of the army's size from organiza- tions thruout the country. Mr. Baker considered the reduction to 100000 would be destructive to the basic plans of army organization and General Iershing thought it would be unsafe to go below 100000 men.
 Much of the debate revolved about the Japanese question. Senator Reed of Missouri and Senator Williams of Mississippi pooh-poohed the yellow peril" while Senator Phelan of Cali fornia warned the Senate that the necessity for large garrisons in Pacific possessions was greater now than dur ing the war. Senator Reed said Japan would never dare te attack the United States without the aid of Great Brit ain.
 And if there is any danger of that" he said, "this measure for l75.- 900 men is useless; we should beeiD preparing for war on scale never before seen in this country"
 Senator Borah of Idaho charged that the purpose of maintaining D large standing army was to use it for policing purposes in the United States, which. he declared, would in- crease discontent.

Danville, H., Jan. Hilary Birch, motion picture camera man of Chicago, was soundly thrashed here today by Ernest Harrington, whose wife is hunger striking to force her husband into the church. Birch, it is said, went to the Harrington home and attempted to gain admittance, saying Harrington had given him permission. The attendant at the home called his store and asked Har- rington about it. ''No," he answered, "throw him out"
 Birch then was told to leave the residence.
 "We are getting enough notoriety as it is and don't want fool pictures of me going all over the world" said Harrington. Then he hurried home and took Birch to the woodshed to whip him. He administered such a beating that Birch lost consciousness. When he came to Harrington was gone and two strangers were bending over him. They led him away from the house and directed him to a doe tor.
 Birch's nose was broken, both eyes were closed and his face was badly swollen from the impact of Harring- tons blows. Birch has made no com plaint against Harrington and liar rington has not been arrested.

DRILLING FOR OIL
 WEST or f.NENA
Borings in Le Fibre County Expected to Have Great Effect on Develop ment in This Section-Oil
 Once Found There.

Talihina, Ok, Jan. 17.--Valuable in- formation on the geological formation of the country immediately south of the 'Choctaw fault, or break in the underground strata, which runs across Oklahoma near Talihina, is expected to be one of the results of well now being drilled two miles east and one mile south of Talihina. LeFlore coun- ty, by H. c. Swick of Fort Smith.
 The we'll is ten miles south of the "Choctaw fault" and is down now to 365 feet, Mir. Swick said Saturday, while in Fort Smith. To date the for nation has been regular, starting with about thirty feet of limestone near the surface, and consisting of shale much like the shale in this section from that point down to the present level.
 A careful log of the soil is being kept, and the formations found as the work progresses may have a great effect on oil and gas development in that country.
 There has long been feeling among many oil and gas operators and geologists that chances for oil south of the "Choctaw fault" were not good. At least it has been be- lieved that any oil found there would be distinct from the mid-continent fields of Oklahoma, and either be new fields or extensions of fields further south.
 The well near Talihina is owned by the Kiamichi Valley Oil and Gas com pany.
 Mir. Swick said they expected to hit oil or gas at about 1900 feet. A we'll drilled about eight years ago, uopBooI lusssId sul tuo1J seHu sAY produced about two barrels of oil daily, Mr. Swick said. and the owners of the company and the drillers have high hopes of striking something worth while.

Business Good, Thank You" Fine
 Slogan for All Traders.

l.. V. Nichols, president of the L. V. Nicholsl Oil Company, recently tod more than a thousand business men in Omaha, Neb., that business will al- ways be good for the man who keeps cheerful and smiling and who takes pride and pleasure in doing the best he can.
 "There is no argument to the fact that bills are not being paid as promptly as customary; that the banks are not lending money as freely as we would like; that the farmer is not get tlng aB much money for his crop as either he or we think he should. 1t is true automobiles are not selling as readily as they were, and 1t is true prices in many lines are tumbling, but that is what we all had to expect any, how, and there is no reason why any of us should go into mourning and act as if business had gone to the dogs and the country into the. hands of a re- ceiver.
