A MAN OF INTEGRITY

A physician who reaches out to
benefit humanity leaves a record be-
hind him that is worth while. Such
a man was DR.. r. V. Pierce, founder
of tn Invalids Hotel in Buffalo, NJ
Y. He was an eminent physician, a
leading and honored citizen, known
for his honesty and executive ability.
His study along medical lines, and
his knowledge of the remedial quail
ties of herbs and plants led to the
discovery of his wonderful herbal
remedy, Doctor Pierce's- Favorite
Prescription, the woman's tonic
which has had the greatest number
of supporters for the past fifty years.
1t is just the herbal tonic required
if "a woman is borne down by pain
and sufferings at regular or irreg-
ular intervals, by nervousness or
dizzy spells, headache or backache.
Favorite Prescription can now be
had ip tablet form as we'll as liquid
at most drug stores.

Danzig.-Old inhabitants Of the
Baltic states are shaking their heads
doubtfully over the appearance of the
silk-tailed winter thrush, known among
the superstitious as the bird Of disas-
ter" 1t has not been seen in these
regions since the winter of 1913-14-
Residents of East Prussia and other
parts of the Baltic contend 1t Is a
matter of historical record the birds
were here in the winter of 1872, pre-
ceding Napoleon's Russian campaign,
and their appearance on this edge
Of the Baltic at intervals Of years In
variably has been followed by famine,
pestilence or war before the year was
out.
Early In 1914 the silk-tailed thrush
Ia said to have gone as far south as
France. This winter, according to re-
ports here, the birds have scattered
over central Europe, touched Russia
on the east, and gone as far west as
Belgium and the Ruhr.

GIRL OPERATOR
RUNS BLOCKADE
EUades Reporters After Ex-
citing Experience.

Texas City.-The sea still offers rO-
nance, although those who are mixed
In 1t take their experiences as matters
Of fact, and it remains for landsmen to
spin the yarns
A bit of the unusual came to light
when 1t was learned that the tanker
Eugene V. Thayer, which was herald
ed as having run the federal block
ade at Tampico recently, carried as
her wireless operator Miss Lena Nick
elsen, daughter of the captain. True,
the ship came through without being
molested, but this pair had come In
contact with the Mexicans enough to
know that they often do the unex-
pected, and single explosive shell
would have sent the tanker and her
cargo of crude oil into oblivion. New
ertheless Miss Mickelsen appeared to
have regarded the incident as a lark.
She has been with her father as
wireless operator for seven years, and
says that she finds it much more In
teresting than staying ashore. She Is
just slip Of O girl, with big dark
eyes, CARRIED In starched overalls, and
heavy wool stockings. She had not
found 1t necessary to sacrifice herihair
for her career, and it is piled on top
of her head.
Miss Micke1sen took things calmly,
and she would not become interested
In the uniqueness of her position
enough to discuss it to any consider
able length, except to mention In cas-
ual conversation a few of the ports
where she had been ashore and points
Of interest there. She added that she
derived considerable entertainment
from listening in on the big wire
less stations of the world and that
her work kept her busy.

OId-Fashioned Girl


1--WE been watching an 'old-fashion-
ed girl for quite long while, says
writer, "and / want to tell you
something about her.
"Her dresses were made in modern
style, but, bless you, she was SO old
fashioned that she arose in the morn
ing when her mother did, helped set
the table neatly and cooked one or
two dishes daintiIy her own self
"She had graduated, yet she did
not think because of that fact that the
kitchen was not good enough for her.
Oh, no. She was so much behinC the
times that she actually washed the
dishes, made her bed, busted and
then began preparations for the pud-
ding for dinner.
Nov, wasn't she absurd when she,
following the accustomed run, should
have been lying on the parlor sofa
with the latest novel in her hand and
her dog beside her?
when her little brother came in
crying because his kite was broken,
instead Of calling him 'horrid boy
as it is the fashion to do IA some
homes, she helped with her own
hands to mend it. How could she be
in such small business?
After dinner had been cleared
away, she produced a small work
basket and proceeded to mend the
family stockings. Dreadful! After
her task was completed 81 accom-
panied her mother on a shopping ex-
petition; and. altho she met many
1inc-looking gentleman, she did not
'firt' with any of them, for, don't you
know, she was so Anticipated she
would have been shocked az the idea.
As if it wasn't eleyating to the intel
lect to be on the watch for soma
masculine person to Iascin4te!
"The girl of whom / am telling you
was pretty looking, with a bright,
fresh color in her face, brought on
by plenty of exercise in the open air
and in the kitchen.
But / can't begin to tell you half
lhiS queer SEl A4ut TOT you KNOW she
was so old-fashioned that she did
whatever good deeds came into her
heart to do, and her heart was such
an antique affair that only -1ure, noble
thoughts entered it.
"Her home was made bright and
sunny by her presence, ard yet she
was not SO perfect that he died
young Oh, no! She lives today q
girl who has 40 secrets from her
mother"

ROCKETS MAY YIELD y
DATA OF UPPER AIR
Mefeorologists Interested in
NeLU Experiments.

Washington Investigation of the
temperature, pressure, density, and
composition of the upper air at
very high attitudes above the earth
are Of scientific value to meteor
ologists. For this reason, and not
because of any fancied POSSIBLE
ity of communicating with the moon,
the weather bureau of the United
States Department Of Agriculture
Is interested in the efforts Of Doc
tor Goddard, Of Clark university, to
perfect rocket-like device which will
lead to information on these points.
The type of rocket used In such In
vestigations is intended to carry equip
ment for recording the facts of the
upper air, for taking samples of the
atmosphere, and, most important of
all, for bringing them back.
Practically nothing Is actually known
at the present time Of the atmospheric
conditions more than twenty miles be-
yond the earth's surface. Such facts
as are known about this 20-mile layer
Of atmosphere have been learned by
means Of balloons which can be sent
no higher.
Aviators have only penetrated about
seven miles above sea level-not much
more than the height of the highest
mountains. From two frequently OBJ
served upper-alr phenomena-shooti
stars and the aurora--en entirely contra
dictory deductions have been made by
re liable scientists respecting temper
atures in the upper atmosphere. The
facts In the matter cannot be deter
mined until the very high atmospheric
layers can be explored.
A study Of rockets was made at the
time of the World war. by means of
which the underlying theory Of this
type Of experiments was developed.
II Is considered entirely feasible to
project properly devised rockets to
heights of 800 miles or more above
the earth. There Is thus reason
able hope for getting positive knowl-
edge Of very high attitudes through
Doctor Goddard's experiments

Cures.


Last night" said Boggins, "a man
ran out of dark alley and grabbed
me by the neck aud said: Kill 'em!
That's what ! say! Kill 'em'. While l
was giving tire fellow the 1iu jItsu I
saw he was ;5queers, the insane asy-
Iu1l graduate, and knew that he was
harmless. But / certainly had a
friskt before l realized that he had
been cured.
Science is a blessing nowadays. al
they need do to an imbecile now is
to opon his head and tie knot in his
brain and he is all right-curedi But
let me tell you l sure would have
thought that man crazy if l hadn't
happened to know that he had been
cured. The doctor who performed
the operation himself assured me that
it was a great success.
Science has liberated a lot of
men who would otherwise be penned
up, not only insane, but criminals.
Many poor fellow has had his name
cleared by science. There is Squag-
giles. He had some kind of klepto-
mania or something the matter with
him and was stealing all tie time.
He went to a world-renownec sur
geon, who cut out something or bored
hole somewhere and now Squaggles
is cured.
tits a great help for Squaggles. Just
the other day they missed a lot If
chickens over at the little grocery
store near the Squaggles place, and
Squaggles was arrested -ocause there
were a lot of feathers on his cloths
and somebody heard lot of cdckling
at Squaggles' house the night of the
theft. Besides, a restaurant man
identified Squaggles as the man who
sold him the birds. 1t certainly look
ed bad for Squaggles for while, and
he was in a fair way to be accused
of having taken the chickens. But
he proved that he had been operated
upon and the surgeon said that he
could not have been guilty because he
was cured. The operation was sue
cess.
"And then there's Old Man Piggins.
He had an awful pain in the head for
years and finally he went to a doctor,
who told him that he had headakitis
and that the only thing TO be done was
to operate. 1t had to be removed.
''Piggins went to the hospital for
year or so and they injected ink into
his head every day during that time
and then cut out a piece of his head.
He was then cured. He dice of pain
in the head later, but it wasn't
headakitis, certainly. The doctors re
lieved him of that all right. A surgi-
cal operation for headakitis is in
yariably successful. The patients
have the satisfaction OF dying of some
thing else, thus frustrating the head
akitis."
