DOCTOR GAVE HER
 MIXTURE ID STOP COUGHING SPELLS
Coug h ed So Bad People Stared - Began To
 Worry Family
HAWKED AND SPIT UP
 PHLIGM EACH MORNING

"A person with bad cough Is a fool not to see their doctor right away" de- clares Mrs. D. R. Shadwell. q coughed in church. iu the office where I work and at the movies so had people would stare at me. Mornings I was a nuisance around the house. coughing up phelgm and mu"us. At night l breathed through my mouth and mornings my mouth was dry and tasted awful.
 SAW HER DOCTOR
 "Our old doctor met ne on the street and noticed I coushed every minute or so. I told him 25c cough remedies did no good and couldn't take cod liver oil. He laughed and wrote down the name Linonlne' and told me 1t was a nice-tasting Flax-seed mixture with Eucalyptus. etc. far better than Cod Liver oil and quicker, too.
 WONDERFUL RESULTS
 "Only the bigger downtown stores had L,nonne but it's worth going miles to get. My cough loosened u pand van ished almost like magic. Since then a dozen friends Nho were wheezing and coughing around have taken Lnonine and even the kids in the neghborhood like to take it when they get a cough CT cold. It builds you up too"
 A cough Is nasty, annoying thing to have and dangerous too. this time of year. A soc or S1.OO bottle at home does the work. Well stocked druggists have Linonne made by the nationally known Kerr Chemical Co. or send dol lar bill with name and address to Kerr Chemical Co, Brentwood, Md. for large bottle postage free to your door.

CORPUS CHRISTI
 KILLED OWN BOOM
S30,0O0 Advertising Venture Is
 Thrown Overheard

Corpus Christi. Tex. Nov. Rl- This Is town that paid s30,000 for boom and then deliberately killed the boom. But the newest port in the country has charged the S30.00O up to valuable experience and thinks the money will spent.
 Early in September Corpus Chris fl, which nestles beside the Gulf of Mexico, became Uncle Sam's latest port of entry and thereby got right down to business of living. Six months before that even, how ever. it was among the boomiest spots on the American continent, all because an enterprising chamber of commerce had gone out in the high ways and byways and invited every body far and near to come settle in Corpus.
 Was a S3O,00O Venture
 The chamber of commerce last winter spent s30.000 on an adver- Using campaign to bring new resi- dents to the city. About the time the paid invitations got we'll un- der way, messages began to pour in from Thigh powered and wide awake real estate agents" and many of the agents soon followed their messages in person.
 Almost before the city knew what was happening. it was in the midst of an effervescent real estate stim- ulation. The town was inundated with wildeyed boomers. Staid citi- zens who had never before thought of the thing called real estate began to talk it and breathe it. The hotel Hobbies looked like a stock market on a busy day, as real estate was traded by a nod of the head, or a tense-voiced shout.
 Then Built Up SolidIy
 Soon the saner heads saw that 1t was mostly talk and paper trading and what they had wanted for ESQ., 900 was buildings and permanent residents. So they turned in to head off the boom.
 The chamber of commerce began sending telegrams and letters to head off some of the prospective citizens. There was no boom in Cor pus; Corpus didn't want a boom and didn't intend to have one. The boom was stopped.
 It had lasted about two months and a half, and in that time Ralph Bradford, secretary of the chamber of commerce. estimated that sS,00o- 900 worth of property was eX- changed. The town got down to ac- tua' building. Two hundred houses and business buildings have been under construction the past summer, and in one month building permits reached S3e0,no0 which was con- sidered good for a town of 25,000. The population increased 5000 in 10 months.

 Opposing counsel agreed tenta lively on the date, Judge J. R. Hamilton of the Travis county dis trict court having informed the district attorneys he would accept any date on which they decided.
 The contention of the defense that Dr. Norris could not obtain a fair trial in Fort Worth resulted in the transfer of the case here.

Of JESSE JAMES
$65,000 Believed Buried in
Arkansas Glen After
Deathbed Story.
BY Consolidated Press.

By Consolidated Press.
ARKANSAS CITY, Ark, March 20.
Search for $65.000 in gold, reported
near a big tree i'm glen east of
this city in the late seventies by the
bandit gang of Frank and Jesse
James. Is being revived as a result
Of recent statements of old residents.
An influx Of searchers started fol-
lowing publication of statement by
c. NJ. Scott, a farmer who died re-
Gently. that he knew details of the
hiding of the money. but had been
unable to locate it.
Story Long Told.
a systematized hunt is being
planned by a group of Oklahoma
City residents. Consent of James
Hightower. owner of the glen. has
been obtained, the searchers agree
ing to share equally with Mr.. High
tower any treasure they find.
For years the story has been told
in the vicinity that the James boys
gang. hard pressed by a Missouri
sheriff and posse after a bank rob
berry. cached their loot in the glen
near a natural bridge. which has
caused the tract to be known as Nat
ural Bridge Park.
Several of the bandits. according
to the story. escaped by swimming
down the Arkansas River. but two

souri, penitentiary several years later
and is reported TO have explained
on his deathbed how and where the
gold was buried. Mr. Scott repeated
the story to neighbors.
Park Lake Drained.
Searchers already have siphoned all
the water from Crater Lake in the
park and several holes were dug in
the bed. The search there was futile,
however
Tradition says the gold was buried
In a heavy iron chest.
1t is understood a lucrative busi-
ness is being done among searcherS
by clairvoyants who profess to be able
to reveal hiding places of valuables.
