Old Folks Say Doctor
Caldwell was 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 laxa-
tive prescription he had used in his
practice, known to druggists and
the public since 1892, as DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsill.
Then. the treatment of conStipa-
ton. biliousness, headaches, mental
depression, indigestion, sour storn-
ach and other indispositions that
result from constipation was entire
ly by means of simple vegetable
laxatives, herbs ard roofs. These
are still the basis of DR.. Caldwt lis
Syrup Pepsin, which is a conbilIa-
ton of SIENNA and other mild Lara
tive herbs, with pepsin.
The simpler the remedy for con-
stipation, the safer for the child
and for you, and the better for the
general health of all. And as you
can get results in a mild and safe
way by using Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, why take chances with
strong drugs?
A bottle of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin win last 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 proper dose.

EAST TO STAY EAST
AfghaniStan Wells Face to West

He combined western comfort
with oriental luxury and lavish
ness and his specially built rail-
way train was a marvel to the
more conservative continentals.
Silk and velvet draperies and
plush carpets from the east min
gled with the mechanical conven-
fences of Europe, and his retinue
of white and black servant was
more gorgeously uniformed than
in the most brilliant of European
courts.
The king and queen made a
close study of Europe, observing
its customs, and decided these
were superior to man. of their
land. The dress, TOO, appeared to
them more practical, particularly
women's dress, and Queen Sour
iva took back to Kabul numerous
Paris creations.
But the Afghans are a Moslem
people, and the mullah, the priest,
holds sway over them. The null
labs saw their power would crum-
Bile If too much westernization
crept in, and they resented King
Amanullah'S plans.
The flowing robes of the Afghan
women were more proper than the
knee-length effects from Paris,
they felt. Yelled faces were more
intriguing than face uncovered.
Horses and carnels were preferable
tc automobiles and airplanes as
means of travel and as for wire
less, it was an insult to Allah
when speedy runners wer- avail
able.
TINE rebellion broke actively a
l. month ago when two powerful
tribes advanced on Kabul, the
capital. They fought Amanul-
labs dwindling regular army.
Last week it was indicated
Amanullah was safe on his
throne, although he had conced-
ed all his dissemination program
to the rebels.
He had agreed t recall At
CHAN girls studying abroad, abol-
ish obligatory wearing of Euro
pean clothes. allow the marriage
of schoolboys, and prohibit sale
of wine and liquors.
He refused insistent demands
that the queen, whom the Null
labs blamed for instigating the
dissemination, be banished from
the country.
His abdication reveals that
these concessions failed to quiet
his subjects.
Inayatulla, the new king, will
give Afghanistan back to the east.
He is 40-four years older than
Amanullah-without a trace of
western education. He can read
and write Persian, has had les
sons in arithmetic and geography
and is a horseman and marks
man.
Although friendly to Great
Britain, the new king is opposed
to attempts to reform" his sub
jects and is strongly under the in
f1uence CT the Mullahs.

Commissioners Themselves
Approved Highway, Says
Former Surveyor.

Intimations by county commits
sioners Monday that there was con-
nivance of some kind in the con-
struction of the OHM o. Smith
gravel road, meandering highway
along Big Eagle creek in the north
west part of the county, was de-
Glazed ludicrous by Henry r. Camp
bell, former county surveyor.
The commissioners, whose politi-
cal complexion has changed since
Jan. /, when Campbell went out of
office, conducted what they called
IAN investigation into the road, the
construction of which they said was
SO poor that they ordered it closed.
The contractor has agreed to make
it suit the commissioners.
Campbell passes Buck"
The commissioners questioned Ar
thur Grissom, estimator in the sur
veyor's Office. They said that Girls
som said the specifications for the
road originally called for an eight
een-foot roadway, but that he
changed them on order of Campbell,
who said it was for the purpose of
making the cost less than $4,000 so
as to escape review by the state tax
board.
Campbell today said that it was
perfectly true that he had called for
an estimate and plans on twelve
foot roadway, because that was what
the commissioners directed.
Approved by Commissioners
Records in the surveyors Office
and in the county commissioners
Office clearly will show that the
contractors bid upon a twelve-foot
roadway and that there was no
change in this specification after
the contract was let.
1.-THE plans, specifications and es-
Inmates were approved by the coun-
ty commissioners. The engineer
under the law is merely technical
adviser of the county commissioners
and it is impossible for him to make
any change in specifications or
plans unless the commissioners at
tach the. signature"

r ONDON, Jan. 15..-Hopes of an
II eastern ameer to link the
life of the east and west have
shattered and proven again the
truth of Kipling's prophecy that
never the twain shall meet"
King Ananullah of Afghani-
stan has been forced to give up
his plan of moldins the Afghans
to western customs, and has
handed over the government to
his elder brother, the Sirdar Ina
yatulla.
Amanullah's defeat came about
as the result of the very conces-
sion by which he hoped to retain

Helpless, the king fled to Kan

he was reported safe today among
