Old Folks Say Doctor
Caldwell is Right

The basis OF treating sickness has
not changed since DR.. Caldwell left
Medical College in 1875, nor since he
placed on the market the laxative
prescription he had used in his prac-
tice, known to druggists and the
public since 1892 as DR.. Caldwelps
Syrup Pepsin.
Then the treatment of constipa-
ton, biliousness, headaches, mental
depression, Indigestion, sour stomach
and other indispositions that result
from constipation was entirely by
means of simple vegetable laxatives,
herbs and roots. These are still the
basis of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
which is a combination of SIENNA and
other mild laxative herbs with pepsin.
The simpler the remedy for con-
stipation the safer for the child and
for you, and the better for the gen.
eral health of all. And, as you can
get results in a mild and safe way
BY using DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, why take chances with strong
drugs?
A bottle of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin will last a family several
months, and all can use it. 1t is
good for the baby, because pleasant
to the taste, gentle in action and free
from narcotics. In the proper dose,
given in the directions, it is equally
effective at all ages. Elderly people

BIG RIVER BARGE COMING.
Water Pumped In Craft So She Can
Pass Canal Bridges.
Correspondence Of The star

Correspondence Of The Star.
TONAWANDA, N. Y.-The first OF
the big steel barges built at the Lo'
rain shipyards for the Standard OIL
Co. to pass down the barge canal,
en- route to New York, has arrived at
the terminal here in tow of the tugs
Rochester and Walnero III.
The barge is making the trip light.
On account Of the height Of the cabin
and other equipment on the deck of
the big carrier 1t was necessary to stop
in the local harbor several hours while
the tugs pumped enough water into
the hold of the freighter to weight 1t
down sufficiently to pass under the
bridges over the canal.
The barge is the largest sent over
the barge canal, having q capacity of
11.045 tons. The boat, like the sister
carriers being built at Lorain, will
operate on the Hudson River, carry
ing oil and gas between New York and
Albany.
The carrier being without motive
power Of its own, will be towed to
the Hudson River where 1t will be
taken in tow by one Of the Standard
Oil Co.'S steamers or tugs.

BROADCAST RIGHTS
FOUGHT IN COURT
Columbia Chain, Barred at
! Tunney-Dempsey Match,
to Seek Decision.
Consolidated Press Association.

consolidated Press Association.
NEW YORK, September "a
Property rights in broadcasting are
the subject for the first time OF legal
proceedings, now being pursued by
the Columbia Broadcasting System
because it was prevented from broad
casting the account OF the Dempsey
Tunney fight from Soldier Field, Chi
cago.
Having failed to obtain an injunc-
ton to restrain Tex Richard from
granting exclusive broadcasting
rights to the National Broadcasting
Co, which holds a contract with
Richard for all the big bouts, officials
OF the newly formed Columbia chain
announce they will press their case
for decision which will determine
their status in future situations Of
the kind. a hearing is scheduled i'll
Chicago October 10.
Third Chain Reported.
Intensity of the competition be.
tween the network broadcasters-and
it is reported that a third large
chain. sponsored by motion picture
interests, is about to enter the field
lis indicated by the situation arising
over the fight. Until the eleventh
hour the Is stations of the Columbia
chain expected they, too, would
broadcast the event, only TO learn
the Chicago court had ruled adj
versely.
Thus only WMAQ. Chicago. of the
Columbia chain, carried the fight re-
port under a special arrangement with
that station previously made by
Richard. Now the Columbia interests
are going to court with the contention
that Mr.. Richard could no more grant
exclusive rights to broadcast a huge
public event of this sort, under the
scrutiny of a unsupported institution
like the Illinois State Boxing Commits
sion, than he could bar news reporters
from the event.
Technicalities Claimed.
This is the way the Columbia chain
explained its difficulty by kilograms

OCONTO, Wis.-Citizens OF Octono

ton Commission to declare a closed
season on prairie chickens In Oconto

here, according to survey just made,
and fear is expressed that the fowls
will be externinated unless protected
Immediately. The situation has been
somewhat aggravated by closed sea-

Plenty Types Available.

It ia encouraging to note the efforts
on the part of radio manufacturers to
give everybody everywhere all of the
advantages of better reception through
better equipment. There are sentltive
portables for tourists and persons who
are not in a position to tap the cleo
trio light lines. There are all sorts of
kits and special units for those who
desire to rejuvenate the old set. Now
attention Is being paid to the needs of
those radio owners who are on cleo
trio lines using 25.cyle alternating cur.
rent.
Most lines standardize on cycles,
and until recently the list of power
units concentrated on this alternating
rate. This meant that many persons
who wanted to enjoy socket-power re.
ception were forced to forego the pleas
ure. Rather than disappoint this
group the manufacturers now have
placed the bicycle unit on the market.

Patents Sketch Transmitter.

Looking forward to time when
broadcasting stations may transmit
sketches, cartoons and line illustra-
tons for entertainment and various
other purposes, c. Francis Jenkins,
noted Washington inventor, who has
been devoting considerable time to the
scientific development of motion pic
ture and radio, has taken out a pat
ent covering means of reception for
such transmissions. This he calls a
radio tablet method: 1t is a means of
converting the incoming radio signals
into mechanical motion to control
pen which reproduces drawing or let
tering on fiat surface as sent out by
the artists at the transmitting studio.
The apparatus includes certain pat
ented mechanisms capable of being
connected with the ordinary radio re.
ceiving set.
Tubes Must Be Renewed.
That radio vacuum tubes must be
replaced occa sionally is one of the
things the radio dealers and manufac.
turers are now trying to impress on
the minds of the broadcast listeners.
Especially to those who use their re-
ceivers a few hours every night do
they wish to appeal, for it is this class
whose tubes wear out the soonest.
According to officials of the radio
corporation. the life Of an ordinary

Maybe" admitted the Kid, but
| I'm not looking for an alibi. IF /
We're, would play up this cold or

at must be q cold agreed the Old
Timer. II don't think anything else
could be there. But forget it! Just
put it out of your mind. If you have
strong enough will you can put every
unpleasant thing out of your head"
''Yes?" asked the Kid. "How about
an aching tooth?"
Lets change the subject" said
the Old Timer, promptly. What
| about your bowling shoes? Do you
| think it's too much trouble to
| changer"
cit isn't that" explained the Kid.
my bowling shoes are ruined; the
rats chewed 'em up last Summer"
"Rats?" asked the Old Timer. Are
you troubled with rats at your place."
Terribly" admitted the Kid.
You ought to get some rat bis
cults for them" suggested the Old
Timer, meaning that the Kid should
poison the rodents.
Running No Rats Cafeteria.

| what sort of dumb hell do you
think / am? I'm running no rats
cafeteria. If the darned NUTS can't

THAR, har, harr laughed the OLD
Timer, catching the Kids sarcasm.
That's pretty good. But. believe
me. it's some job clearing out rats;
they're smart
"iIl say they are" agreed the Kid.
ibid I ever tell you the story OF the
rat that stole the baby's milk"
rs 1t a decent story?" demanded
the Old Timer.
"of course" said the Kid, indig-
nantly.
Then i've never heard It," declared
the Old Timer. Go on"
Well related the Kid this story
is told by a man who says he once
saw a mother place her baby in front
of the house in the sun. putting be-
side him a bottle of milk with a rub
Der nipple on it,"
II thought this was a story about
rats" said the Old Timer.
I'm coming to that--or. rather.
the rat is coming" explained the Kid.
Just after the mother left, the man
saw rat come out from under the
house and draw near the baby. He
was about to pick up a rock and kill
1t, but waited because he was afraid
he might hit the baby"
Yes" said the Old Timer.
A Gag i'm This "Tail."
THE rat was after the milk" went
on the Kid. Gle walked around and
around the baby and finally slipped
the nipple out of the baby's mouth
and into his own"
But didn't the kid set up a howl?''
asked the Old Timer.
The rat was too smart for him. -
explained the Kid Just as soon az
he got the bottle away from the baby
and started to drink the milk, he
seemed to stop and think a moment.
Ihen he placed the end of his tail in
