FOR Big GAME
Are Prepared for Invasion oil
Mercer Here Tomorrow;
Game Starts at 3

Mercer comes mere tomorrow to
play Bismarck, marking the third
game the two teams havs played this
year and the game which is likely
to be the best of all. The game will
start at 3 o'clock.
Prigge, star hurler who scintillat-
cd when Mercer won from Bismarck
few weeks ago, will furnish the
fireworks for the upstate team,
while Doc Love will do the twirling
for Bismarck and fans are confident
he can offset the work Of the Mercer
man.
Two Teams Even
Mercer has won the majority of its
game this season and the score is
even with Bismarck, each team hav-
ing won one game. Everything
points to battle which will be one
Of the classics of the year and fans
who saw Bismarck in action a week
ago think that tomorrow looks like a
lucky day for the local nine.
Anyway it goes, the encounter is
sure to be speedy and hard fought,
with both sides doing their utmost.
Jones and Webster, who did heavy
hitting last week, are to be on deck
again, as will the rest Of the men
who played Sunday. This lineup,
proven the most satisfactory for Bis
marck. will insure good playing.

Some Causes of Pains In the Head

Pain due to inflammation of
various parts of the skull.
Pain originating inside the
skull, true headache.
The most frequent and most
important form of neurotic or
nervous headache is generally
called by its patients something
different from and even less
bearable than mere pain" They
may describe it as a sense of
pressure on the top of the head
or at the very back; as a light
ness and emptiness, or a feeling
of the head opening and shutting,
and often give the impression
that it is peculiarly or even hor-
ribly unpleasant. The difference
between this kind of headache
and the true headache is that a
patient with true headache does
not hesitate to describe his symp.
tons as those Of pain, pure and
simple.
The neuralgias are not neces-
sarily due to disease of the af.
fected nerve, but the pain COR
responds closely to the nerve
distribution. A neuralgia of the
scalp is generally a superficial
pain and the affected part is
tender. The quality of the pain
is usually stabbing or darting.
The pain that is due to local

down a second bomb and ex-
ploded that. Still the well didn't
work right, so he waited until
after another oil squirt, and began
to lower the shot canister. Sud-
denly he felt the weight on the
line ease up, and realized the well
had begun to flow, and the 20
quarts of nitro was riding back
to the surface on top of speed
ing column of oil.
There was time to run to safety
before the can blew out of the
well mouth, but LarlSin began
hauling in the shot line, trying to
keep up with the approaching
shell. As it drew near he leaned
over the well mouth, caught the
can in his arms, while the detona-
tor cap buried itself in his
stomach so far that it left a scar
the rest of his life. Yet Larkin
rolled clear, while a column of
oil spurted over the derrick top.
Shooting wells Is only one Of the
many hazardous occupations con-
nected with the getting of gasoline
to keep millions of automobiles

At her words the vestibule door
began to click and she put out
a brown, slender hand and opened
it as she hung up the receiver
with the other.
'Lottie! You're not going up
there!" Bobbie caught her by
her shoulder and swung her
around. She looked pIeadingly into
the calm, deep eyes that were
Lottle's sole claim to beauty.
And Lottie looked back at her
solemnly. "Bobbie Ransom, you've
been drinking" she said quietly,
but the scorn in her voice was
like a lash. IT didn't think you'd
fall for all this cheap side-show
stuff"
She shook Boobies hand from
her shoulder and started up the
stairs. She didn't seem to know
that Bobbie stayed close behind
her as she went.
She stood still before the door

before she knocked upon it. She
seemed to be listening to tine wild
shouts and the gusts Of music
within. But Bobbie could see

own above the din around her.
But Gus evidently did. and 10 min
utes later they were sitting in his
roadster, drawn up in Cahuenga
Street under the lighted windows
of Monica's flat.
The night air was cool and
sweet as we'll water. 1t came to
her nostrils in a rush and made
her dizzier than ever. She laid
her head on Gus shoulder, and
spoke to him very slowly and
softly.
Nothing matters much really.
Nothing in the world-any more"
she said. mot to me. l must be
getting hard-boiled."
Gus laughed. "You talk like an
old-fashioned melodrama, Bobs. I"
he answered lightly. "That's what
the heroine always said just be-
fore she threw herself from the
railroad trestie."
Then his voice changed sud-
denly. 1t was thick and hoarse
when he spoke again. Doesn't
anything matter to you, Bobbie?"
! he asked. Doesn't this? And
this" He kissed her twice.
"And this? This matters, doesn't
it?''
She didn't answer. Her head
dropped lower on his shoulder.
He saw then that she was hold
ing her hand out to him, and that
there was something in it's palm
that glittered in the glow of the
street lamp.
Would you take this, and give
me back Andy's bracelet" she
was asking huskily and dreamily.
She made him think of child
talking in it's sleep.
He squinted up his steel-blue
eyes to see what she had.
Your aunt's pin. You found it
them" he asked. why sure, you
may have the bracelet back. What
do you want to do with it?"
He had to bend his head to hear
her answer. And then he couldn't
understand what she was talking
about. Something about a red.
headed stenographer was all he
could make out from the tumble
of words.

How would you like to stand

had that experience a few years
ago, and lived to tell about it,
according to Popular Mechanics
Magazine. 1t was just one adj
venture in the life of an oil man,
where the drillers shake hands
with death every day.
Larkin had been employed to
improve a well which had been
flowing by fits and starts, like
Yellowstone Park geyser. The
improving process consisted in
dropping five-gallon canisters Of
explosive down the casing and
then firing them off by a
chaser" a heavy metal weight
sent speeding Sown the sand line
by which the nitro was lowered.
The well was gushing every
half hour, Immediately after one
gush had subsided, Larken eased
down, the first can of explosive
and touched It off. After the
next flow of oil ceased, he sent

apartment hotel.
Suddenly it came to her that
she aust do something to stop
her. Lottie simply must not go

noisy, jazzy people! She must
not go up there, where Monica
doubtless would insult her with
her serpent's tongue!

make a scene that night. She
opened the door Of the green
roadster and before Gus Mac
Cloud knew what she was about,
she had flashed across the street
and into the vestibule.
Lottie was speaking into the
house telephone. This Is Mrs.
Schultz. I'm calling for my hus-

ing through your hat, and I'm
going to take you home," he said.
AS he leaned forward to start
the engine. a little Italian car
that he knew turned into the
street from Hollywood boulevard.
1t stopped across the road, and
in the light of the street lamps,
he saw Lottie Schultz get out.
She was in one of her plain
white linen dresses, and she had a.
bandana handkerchief knotted
around her slender brown throat.
Her dark eyes were fixed on the
windows of Monica's flat as she
started across the street.
CHAPTER Xiv
Bobbie was wide awake all at
once.
Dizzily she sat up in the car
and watched Gus run across the
deserted street to Lottie and
catch her by the arm. She heard
the deep murmur of his voice as
he said something to her. Then
she saw Lottie draw her arm
away. and without a word walk
