| RESPECTS TUT

•* ■

HOWARD CARTER There was connubial felicity, marital happiness, and genuine affection between husband and wife in those icng gone days when Tut-Ankh-Amen was a pharaoh king and Egypt was a land of splendor. Honest, there was. Love of her sovereign was the first duty of a queen, and the monarch was ever true, tender, and solicitous to his bethrothedSo prominent were thoughts of matrimonial bliss in Tut-Ankh-Amen’s day of glory that our present marriage ceremony has survived 3,000 years and yet it based upon the keynote of the pharaoh ritual, “with these my worldly goods I thee endow." That phrase was the keynote of Egyptian weddings. These and many other heretofore unpublished bits of gossip about King Tut were brought to Chicago Tuesday. May 20. for the first time by Howard Carter, the Egyptologist anii co-discoverer with Lord Carnarvon of the tomb and the treasure chambers. Mr. Carter will remain in Chicago | the remainder of the week. Simple Home Treatment For Swollen Veins If you er any relative or friend Is I worried because of varicose veins, or | bunches, the best advice that anyone in this world can give is to get a pre--1 scription that many physicians are I now prescribing. Ask your druggist for an original ’wo-ounce bottle of Emerald Oil (full strength) and apply night and morning to the swollen, enlarged veins. Soon you will notice that they are growing smaller and the treatment should be continued until the veins are of normal site. Emerald OH is a powerful, yet harmless germicide and results are guaranteed. ■- - ■ -<o- ■ ■ — l . " ■ Another Decatur Case! Time-tested by a Decatur Resident Just another report of sickness and suffering relieved by Doan s Pills. Another Deeatur case that tells of lasting benefit. What can be more convincing? Thousands recommend Doan's for beckache, rheumatic pains, headaches, dizziness and distressing urinary disorders. Doan's are a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys. They have helped thousands and should help you. A Decatur case: Perry Elzey. 216 N. 6th St., says: “My kidneys were disordered for many years I was weak across my back and loins and if I stooped, my back ached severely. I tired quickly while at my work. Since using Doan's Pills from the Holthouse Drug Co.. I bare been in good shape. Doan's did me more good than any other remedy.” NEARLY TWELVE YEARS LATER. Mr. Elzey said: “Doan's cured me and I have had no return of the complaint.” 60c. at all dealers Foster-Milburn Co.. Mfrs.. Buffalo. N. Y. HELP KIDNEYS BY DRINKING MOR£WATER Take Sults to Flush Kidneys und Help Neutralize Irri-’ fating Acids Kidney and bladder irritation often result from acidity, says a noted authority. The kidneys help filter thia acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it may remain to irritate and Inflame, causing a burning scalding sensation, or setting up an irrltatoa at the neck of tba blad der. obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night.

Begin drinking lota of soft water, also get about tour ounces of Jad Baits from your pharmacist and take a tableapoonful a glass of water before breakfast. Continue this tor two or three days. This will help neutralise the acids tn the ayatem so they no longer are s source of Irritation to the bladder and urinary organs, which then act normal again Jad Halts la Inexpensive, and Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with llthia. end la used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by acid Irritation Jad Halts causes no bad effect a whatever.

TALES OF THE OLD FRONTIER ♦ ♦ By ELMO SCOTT WATSON * v *4*+4.*+4.+***++**+4.e-J-***** ((g 1333, We. Urn Newspaper Union ) THE INDIANS' WOODEN CANNON FORT HENRY, built in 1774 on the present site of Wheeling, W. Va., Is justly famous for the frontier heroes associated with it and the many thrilling incidents in Its history. The first settler there was Col. Ebenezer Zane ami from time to time there came to the fort such men as Daniel Boone, Simon Kenton, Lord Dunmore, Lewis Wetzel, George Rogers Clark, Maj. Sam McCullough, Cornplunter, Seneca, and Ix>gan, the Mingo. | Here Colonel Zane's sister, Betty, dashed Into fnme when she sped across a bullet-swept clearing to carry In her apron the much-needed powder to the besieged settlers. Here Maj. Sam McCullough performed his feat of horsemanship and made the leap for life which added to his already great renown on the border. And here on September 11. 1782, was fought the last battle of the Revolution when Fort Henry's defenders beat off the attacks of a force of British and In 1 dlans. But It was in 1777, the "year of the bloody sevens," that the fort witnessed an affair unique In frontier history—perhaps the only instance of I Indians attempting to reduce a white man's fort by use of artillery. On September 1 a large force of Indians led by Simon Girty, the notorious white renegade, attacked the fort. But the handful of defenders gave such a good account of themselves that at the end of the day the savages had suffered heavy losses. Then some genius among the attackers, whether Indian or white renegade is unknown, suggested the use of artillery and offered what he said would be a satisfactory - substitute. A hollow maple log was wrapped with chains, plugged at the breech with wood and filled to the muzzle with u heavy charge of powder, stones and scraps of Iron. Then it was dragged to a point within 00 yards of the stockade and discharged. But the experiment was far from being a success. Instead of smashing down the gates of the fort, as the Indians had hoped, this Improvised cannon burst into a thousand pieces and rained Its missiles down upon the Indians, killing and wounding many of them. Discouraged by thia result, Girty postponed further attack until morning. But by this time reinforcement led by Major McCullough—this being the occasion of McCullough's famous leap—had arrived and the savages were forced to raise the siege. ' o i. Origin of Namt Calvary The name Calvary Is derived from •Calvaria." which Is the Latin equlva lent for Golgotha, meaning a bare skull The name was given tv a rock or prominence shaped to give the sent b'.ance of a skull.
