Things You Should,Know
ALCOHOL

am aware of treading danger
Gus ground in discussing alcohol
even as medicine, it has no other
legitimate use, but that any agent
good for sickness should be des-
troyed, l emphatically deny. Gold
leads the world as a basic instiga-
tor of crime. But no zealot would
abolish gold. 1t must be endured
for the good it may do.
More aged people die of pneumo-
MIA than of any other disease. 1t
is here that alcohol in medical ad-
ministration, is at its best rs
ife-saver. 1t has added years of
life to those for whom life is most
precious. Alcohol is nearer a spe-
ciie in the dreaded influenza than
ANY other drug we possess. Alco-
hol has supported the typhoid vic
tim over the crisis, and started
him on the highway OF health.
These virtues should maintain it in
the ranks of our most valuable
medicines. Opium kills. It's habit
is the most tenacious and degrad-
ing-yet we never hear about pro-
hibition and destruction of the
poppy. The politician cannot use
opium as a monkey-wrench to
throw into somebody's political ma
chinery, so he permits it to be reg
ulated in logical, legal way with
out ostentation, as is being done
today. The abuse of alcohol is

Consider These Salient Features

4 Atlantic Petroleum is drilling rapidly on its sO-acre Coun-
L try Club lease near the Whitaker and it is predicted by
Oil men that this company will complete a gusher well as
large-OR LARGER-than the world famous Whitaker. This
lease is close to production, in the big money play, and right
on structure, according to late copyrighted geological map of
the field.
8 Atlantic also owns an S0-acre lease close to the famous
n Mitchell well in the north end of the field. Union Oil
of California has started n well less than a half mile north
of this lease and it is reported to have made location upon the
offsetting so acres less than 400 feet from this property. 1T
is believed that this -S0-acre lease will be proved up for gusher
production by the operations of Union Oil of California and
that Atlantic will be able to sell this property for a profit
running into the hundreds of thousands Of dollars, without
drilling it.
q Atlantic owns two s0-acre leases on what is known as
y Loveland Lake structure, close to a well which has al
ready been started by an independent oil company. We are
advised that the United States Geological Survey has recon-
mended this structure as being favorable to the production of
oil and gas.
n In addition to these wonderful lease properties, Atlantic
Petroleum owns outright and free of any incumbrance,
$40 acres of leases situated in several other promising dis
tricts. Atlantic now has a total Of $50 acres of leases.
Atlantic Petroleum owns an undivided interest in 1o9,
y 800 acres of state leases in New Mexico. This Is equiv
alent to 1898 acres The California COMPANY, drilling sub
sidiary of Standard Oil of California, is drilling a well in this
immediate vicinity. Well is now down $500 feet. We are

Frankfort, Ky, Feb. 6.-With the announced purpose of curbing the malicious wagging of tongues, the Kentucky anti-gossip law is being invoked and is securing &nvitions.
 Browning upon the repeating or scattering of false rumors or reports of slanderous or harmful nature, it places a $10 to s1O0 fine or 10 to 50 days Imprisonment, or both, as punishment.
 The gossiper Is deemed guilty un- less he is able to show to the satis- faction of a judge or jury that he carefully investigated the source and foundation of the banded remarks, and proved that they had reason able grounds.
 To make available proper defense, the gossiper must furnish for the persons furnishing information up- on which the rumor or report was based"

ANT.BEAR KILLS
 MAN BY CRUSHING
Supposedly Harmless Animal
 Was Probably Held at Bay

t Buenos Aires, Feb. 6.--How a hunter fought fierce body-to-body battle with a South American ant bear, reputed to be an inoffensive animal, and was fatally injured, is told in a report from the village of Avia Terai in the Argentine Chaco
 The tragedy took place in a dense forest surrounding the village, the victim, Candido Martinez, 50 years old, having encountered the bear while separated from his hunting companion. The latter heard his cries for help, the barking of his dogs and several shots, and making his way through the forest as fast as he could, found Martinez on the ground, his flesh terribly torn in several places and his ribs crushed. He had only time to tell that he had been attacked by an ant-bear be- fore he died.
 Instances of an ant-bear attack ing a man are very rare. Ant-bears are known to kill the Jaguar, when attacked by it, by crushing 1t De- tween it's powerful forelegs and chest. but its main interest in pfe is eating ants, destroying their hills with it's long foxlike snout, For this reason it is regarded by settlers as useful animal, It is though that in this instance the bear was at- tackled by the dogs and turned at bay, attacking the man when ne fried to save the dogs.
