Bert Clarke, son of W. II. Clarke
one of the earliest Of island pio-
neers, but now a resident Of Seat

HOO Sunday night. The mfor-
tunate man was in "for hire "
car, driven by b. j. Scott of Sc

testimony, was running at a
speed of IS miles an hour, met
car on curve near Des Moines.
Blinded by the bright light he
says he was unable to get his
bearings and ran into a ditch. The
car upset and Clarke injured
so badly that he died on the way
to Seattle hospital.
Scott, according to Deputy
Coroner K,loepfii, had taken at
least two drinks of moonshine. He
was exonerated by the coroner S

formation filed by the prosecuting
attorney.
The funeral of Mr.. Clarke was

w. G. CLIFF ENTERTAINs.

Among entertainers there is
none better qualified than w. c.
Cliff. This was again evidenced
Tuesday evening when he gave a
$50 "stag" dinner to .he men of
Ellisport. The honor guest of the
evening was c. d. Taylor, who is
soon to remove from Ellisport to
Burton. The Cliff home was
beautifully decorated and the
table was simply loaded with
good things to eat. As the courses
proceeded the writer marveled at
the immense variety and excel
ence of the vegetables and fruit
produced on the island. Except
the meats nearly everything serv-
ed was island grown, Mr.. Cliff
claimed that he did all the cook
cry himself but there were those
present who thought they recog-
nized the skill of Mrs. Cliff in
most of those good things. As
not woman was allowed about
the premises there was no way of
"proving up" on W. c., because
the men who knew would not give
him away. Halloween ghosts
and jack o'lanterns added to the
merriment of the meal. The even
ing was spent as men like to spend
them and roars of laughter indi-
Gated a good time.

OHIO COMPANY
RECEIVERS TOOLS

The best news that has come to
the Ears of the local. oil. magnates
was broadcasted last week when word
was received in Cody that the crew
at work on the Ohio Oil Cos. well in
Oregon Basin had recovered the tools
for which they had been fishing for
several weeks, the loss of which re-
suited in the waste of much time and
money.
Messrs McFayden and Miller of
the Ohio Company had decided that
the rig would be moved and a new
hole started, but upon pulling the
casing, the lost tools we're found firm
ly wedged in the last join of pipe.
Drilling was at once resumed and
will be diligently prosecuted until the
completion of the well, and as a con-
sequence the local men who are inter-
ested in the lease are feeling very
hopeful.
Mr.. John McFayden expressed him
self as being confident that gas would
be available for Cody sometime early
in the coming summer.

Two cases have recently called general attention: "A
child dying of Spinal Meningitis, and a well known man of
Heart Trouble.
SPINAL MENINGITIS means Inflammation Of the
Meninges, membranes inside the skull and spinal column,
surrounding brain and spinal cord.
Inflammation goes hand in hand with swelling. The
swollen meninges press against brain or spinal cord, causing
disturbed functions anywhere in the body, often entire ces-
sation of life. 1t furthermore goes hand in hand with an in
crease in waste products, and germs settle to feed on them.
The presence of the germs has given rise to the mistaken
belief they caused the disease, and germ hunters train their
mysterious guns into the spinal column. They will never
cure the disease.
This can be achieved only by re-aligning the spinal
bone. whose displacement has caused the inflammation. This
done all symptoms will gradually subside.
HEART TROUBLE. The heart cannot develop or work
on its own account, it is controlled through the brain in har-
mony with the rest of the body. To have this control per-
feet, the nerves which connect brain and heart, must not
be interfered with If they are compressed, imperfection
of the heart will result.
Medicines may relieve the acute effects therefrom, and
give you a feeling of safety (the ostrich does the same, when
he buries his head in the sand upon approaching danger),
but the wrong development goes on, until finally the effects
can no longer be suppressed. Thus we read: "Death fol
lowed illness of about two weeks duration, his heart having
been weakened by former attacks"
Compression of a nerve can take place only when one Of
the spinal bones, between which it passes upon leaving the
spinal cord, is slightly out of alignment, and a cure can be
obtained only by re aligning this bone, thus restoring per-
feet control by the brain.
You have then the choice of two ways Of attending to
your ailments: The old one, as applied in above cases, of
fighting the various effects as they may turn up, without
hotherinp about the original cause, or the Chiropractic way
of removing the interference with the work of Nature, with
permanent health as the final outcome.

THE Fog" concerns two persons
totally unknown to each other who
spend their youth and dawning ma
turity in fog, battling against the ty.
ranny, ignorance and obscurity OF
their situations. Nathan Forge is a
poet who suffers from the brutality
Of his father while In another town
Madelaine Theddon, an adopted waif,
| smarts under the whispered remarks
that she is n girl without name.
| Nathan sinks deeper into the fog
/ and in an impulsive moment marrtes
a coarse factory girl who later proves
untrue while Madelaine fees through
the fog from one who desires her.
The fog clears momentartly FOR
Madelaine when she reads poem
of Nathan's. Girl Without Name"
| But then the fog thickens again when
she learns Of Nathan's unfortunate
marriage Their ways separate, but
