KANSAS CITY DOCTOR
 INVENTS NEW TRUSS
New Discovery Heals Rupture With
 out An Operation

Kansas City, Mo- (SpeciaD-A new discovery which, experts agree, has no equal for curative effects in all ruture cases, is the latest accomplish ment of the well-known Hernia Spec ialist, Dr. Andrews, S21 Rock Bldg, Kansas City, Mo The extraordinary success of this new method proves that it holds and heals a rupture. It weighs only a few ounces. Has no hard gouging pads, no elastic belt, no leg straps, no steel bands, and is as comfortable as a light garment. It has enabled hundreds of persons to throw away trusses and declare their rupture absolutely healed. Many of these had serious double ruptures, from which they had suffered for years. It is Dr. Andrews ambition to have every ruptured person enjoy the qulck relief, comfort and healing power of his discovery, and he will send it on free trial to any reader of the Seward Daily Gateway, who writes him. He wants one person in each neighborhood to whom he can refer. If you wish to be rid of rupture, for good, without an operation, take ad- vantage of the doctors free offer.

NEW SUPER FUEL TO
 CUT DOWN FREIGHT

CLEARFIELD, Pa., Oct. 17.-Pro- duction of "super fuel"-an almost 100 per cent perfect burning sub- stance-from bituminous coal, which will save millions of dollars in freight alone, and which may revolutionize the soft coal industry of the United States, is the object of $100,000 ex- pertinent that is being made here. {,
 Every producer in the soft coal dis trict of Western Pennsylvania-the largest in the worlds watching with keen interest the outcome of the at tempt to produce little ball of per- feet carbon-a literal B. T. W. bullet.
 The method of making this "super fuel' is unique but simple and was discovered by Walter Trent, an emil nent engineer, who holds patents on the process.
 The soft coal is first crushed so that it will pass through 00mesh screen, and the powder-like substance is mixed with water. This bath gives resultant coal that is practically free from ash and other impurities. The wet mixture is then pumped into huge tank called the amalgam tank, where 15 per cent by weight of oil is added. This oil is a IA gravity fuel oil.
 Huge and fast revolving paddles are set to work and the combination of carbon particles, centrifugal force and oil forms small globules ranging in size from pea to good sized walnut; "super fuel'' having B. T.. U. content of between 15,0O0 and 16,- 900, free from impurities and ash, and a product which the owners of the process say is equal to anthracite, but which can be produced cheaper.

Formulas differ according to de-
sires, you might even say inherent

inherent desires are swished and
swayed, but not materially changed,
by personal contacts and activities.
