WHY SUFFER FROM YOUR
 LIVER?

Why be handicapped with unsightly blotches on the face, eyes with yellow tinge and that tired and languid feel- ing? This indicates a torpid liver.
 Headache, Dizziness and Biliousness surely follow. You must stimulate your lazy liver, start the bile flowing with Carter's Little Liver Pills.
 They also act as mild laxative, purely vegetable, free from calomei and poisonous drugs, small, easy to swallow, and not habit forming. They are not a purgative that cramps or pains, unpleasant after effect follow- ing, on the contrary a good tonic. All druggists sell genuine red pkgs.

HOOVER MAY ISSUE APPEAL.
Red Cross Said to Need 100000 for
Drought Relief.

There is a strong likelihood that
President Hoover will within the next
week or ten days issue a public appeal
in the name of the American Red Cross
for fund of $4,000, 900 to be used by
that organization in extending relief to
drought sufferers.
The ACCESSIBILITY of this was discussed
at conference today between Presi-
dent Hoover and John Barton Payne,
chairman of the Red Cross. During
this conference, Mr.. Payne laid facts
and figures before the Executive show
ing the steadily mounting demands in
the areas affected by the drought.
Mr.. Payne said afterward that adj
vices received by him which he gave
to the President today indicated strongly
that additional funds will be urgently
needed by the Red Cross in a short
time. He said there has been a ma
terial increase in the requests for funds
from the various Red Cross chapters
in the drought-stricken areas. He said
that within the last few weeks, the Red
Cross has been called upon in several
States, notably Arkansas and Alabama,
to feed live stock as well as human
beings, and this has cut considerably
into the funds

map OF Northern France is spread on
the table and the commanding officer
of the American Expeditionary Forces
bends over the map.
There is a pattering sound on the
roof of the dining car, like gentle rain
fall. Through the 10-car train rushes
an officer, ordering window shades and
vestibule curtains drawn and lights ex-
tinguished. The pattering sound is
caused by pieces of air bombs raining
on the car.
In AirpIane Raid.
The c. H. @. train, carrying the
brains of the A. E. F., is under fire in
an airplane raid. But the train has
been darkened and soon it rides safely
out of the bombardment. Gen. Per-
shing, unperturbed, puffs cigarette.

which enabled PerShing to get as close
to the front as the Army's head could
be permitted to go.
"The generals breakfast mostly con-
sisted of fruit, wheat cakes, boiled eggs,
toast and tea. Breakfast aboard the

RESCUERS SEEK 70
CAVE-|N. VICTIMS
Loss of Lives in Slide AVerted
by Laborer'S Quick
Thinking.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, January 10
Trapped by cave-in they were work.
ing to prevent, but saved from death
by the quick wits of fellow laborer,
20 men awaited deliverance today from
a tunnel of the Hetch Hetchy municipal
water project.
Rescue crews boring through the
debris were impeded by new cave-ins
as they retimbered the tunnel. Rescue
operations began Immediately after the
first cave-in, which occurred early last
night.
The slide, 400 feet from the eastern
entrance, occurred near the spot where
IL men were killed by an explosion of
methane gas in the tunnel last July.
The stretch where the men were
working, $50 feet below the surface,
is known as the most dangerous section
of the tunnel through the coast range,
east of San Francisco
The night shift was replacing weak
ened timbers to prevent a cave-in on
a short stretch between concrete-walled
sections of the tunnel when cracking
timbers and falling rock warned them
of the danger. The workers dropped
their tools and fed. Several got out
before the slide came.
None Seriously Hurt.
The lives of those who we're trapped
probably were saved by the presence of
mind and daring of Welby Morgan,
%, one of those who escaped. With
the first warning of falling rock, he
seized a 20-foot length of 4-inch iron
pipe and dropped it in what he thought
would be the center of the cave-in. His
guess was right, the pipe extended en-
tirely through the Is feet Of debris and
furnished air to his entrapped fellows.
The workmen had scarcely broken for
freedom when the roof caved in, hit
ting several with flying rocks and
knocking others down with the rush OF
air. However, none was reported
seriously injured.
Livermore headquarters of the Hetch
Hetchy project announced shortly be-
fore daylight that workers had reached
the halfway mark in the rescue opera
tons.
officials said the rescue could not be
effected before midday at the earliest;
The trapped men were reported all
we'll" and receiving plenty OF air.
