WHITE MAN FINDS DEATH IN CESS-POOL
A Gruesome Find in Old Jackson Ward--No Foul Play Suspected--Mystery Surrounds Death of Young McCready.
VOLUME XLII, NO. 10
WHITE
A Gruesom
The cesspool of filth at the end of Baker and Eighth streets, has claimed another victim. It is located in Old Jackson Ward. Daniel O'Reilly Me Cready, of 204 N. Rowland street had been missing from his home since last Christmas Eve. Colored children playing in the neighborhood of this death-trap saw an object floating in the fifth and took it to an alligator. A colored man reported that it was a human body and the police authorities with the aid of the Fire Department employees got it out.

NO SIGN OF FOUL PLAY.
Then it was found to be the body of a white man. The Biley Undertaking establishment sent for the remains. There were no marks of violence on the body and just how the young man wandered to this point is a mystery. A taxicab driver tells of leaving him on Broad street near Seventh street some seven or eight blocks from the point where his body was found. Since the frightful accident, when two white college students drove a Ford car over the embankment during the month of October, 1923, a barricade has been there.
NO COLORED PERSON LOST.
No colored person is known to have lost his life at this point. To fall in this creepset in either the day or the night time is sure death, as in the winter time with doors closed, a cry for help could not be heard and a person would drown before any one could afford relief.
CAUGHT A LARGE OTTER.
Mr. John H. Smith, of the Smith Moore Vehicle Company tells a most interesting story of a fishing and hunting trip Christmas with Mr. Robert Pyle to the "lodge" on the Chickahominy Swamp. They went out in a boat seeking big rock. The automatic bait did the work. These fish sometimes weigh as much as 25 pounds. When Mr. Pyle pulled on the line, however, he thought he had hung a log. After much tugging, the head of a large otter appeared upon the surface of the water. Mr. Smith had the presence of mind to strike it squarely on the head with an car. It dived but came up again greatly weakened.
OTTER KILLED WITH OARS
Mr. Smith says, "It came up again wined and I gave it another blow and continued to hammer it until it was thoroughly stunned. We got it into the beat and we beat it to death. We brought it to Richmond. It was a beauty, measuring 48 inches from tip to tip. We were offered $30.00 for it by a trapper. We would not take $150.00 for it. The hook had caught in the roof of its mouth. If I had not struck it so heavy a blow, it would have snapped the line and gotten away. Mr. Pyle took it to Washington, where he is having it mounted on a log in the hallway of his establishment.
OTTER WAS HUNTING FISH.
"The otter was evidently out looking for fish, upon which it feeds and got hooked itself for a fish. It is a game fighter and had it not have been stunned, could have smashed the boat to pieces."
DR. MOONE'S WIFE GONE.
Mrs. Victoria P., wife of Dr. Q. W. Moone died at their residence, 806 St. James street, Saturday night. Her funeral took place last Wednesday at 2 P. M. at the First Baptist Church, Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson, officiating.
UNION QUINTET OUTCLASSES
ST. PAUL CAGERS 41:17.
(Chester L. Washington)
Sweeping on like a resistless hurricane, the whirlwind Union quintet outplayed, outpassed and outshot the St. Paul tossers from Lawrenceville by a score of 41 to 17 in a fast, hard fought game at Johnson's Auditorium last Saturday night.
Union's quintet of floor speedsters got away to a flying start in the first half and displayed rare team work in getting the ball down the floor within striking distance. Gardner was doing the bulk of the scoring for Union, caging 6 field goals in the first half and three in the last. This tall star, a local boy, new on the "S" alone scored 22 points.
The guarding of J. Brown was outstanding "Chink" Smith was second high point scorer, making 4 goals from afield, three of which were sensational. Amis and Faulk were St. Paul's leading cagers, with Lee's guarding prominent.
St. Paul battled hard for the lead in the early stages of the game, but the combination of "Chink" Smith, W. Jackson, Gardner, J. Brown and J. C. Jackson was hitin' on all 5 and they soon started to roll up the score on the visitors. The first half ended 23 to 10, with Union's supporters urging their favorites on to make 40 before the game was over and they did. J. C. Jackson and H. Palmer caged two thrillers in the second stanza as Union ran up 11 points and the coveted 41 while St. Paul was reaching the count of 17. The referee's shrill whistle ended the contest at this count.
St. Paul's five were: Faulk, Amis, Lindsay, Lee and Walker.
B. Y. P. U, COUNCIL WINTER MEETING ON FOURTH SUNDAY
The public is urged to be present at the Fifth Street Baptist Church, Sunday, January 25th, at 8:00 P. M. A special address will be delivered by Prof. W. H. A. Booker, of Virginia Union University on "The Mission of the Church", fostered by the B. Y. P. U. Council in its Winter Meeting. The B. Y. P. U. Council' Chorus and the Junior Choir of the Church will render music for the occasion. Those who have followed the B. Y. P. U. Council during the years of its existence are aware of the program which it has steadily promoted in the churches of the city for the enlightenment and inspiration of the community. The former quarterly meetings have been marked by such discussions as the underlying doctrines of the Baptist Church, the Relation of the Sunday School and the B. Y. P. U. and the last public meeting held in the fall of 1924 on Why I am a Baptist. All people of all denominations are invited to the meeting this month to hear this topic discussed by Prof. Booker on the Mission of the Church, showing the true Christian program which the Church should have for its goal. Prof. Booker has been an instructor at the Virginia Union University for the last two years. He stands out as an efficient, teacher and a forceful minister.

In loving memory of my beloved husband, father and grandfather, Richard T. Cogbill, Sr., who entered into eternal rest, twelve years ago, January 16, 1913:
The happy hours I once enjoyed.
How sweet his memory still;
But death has left a vacant place
This world can never fill.
We who loved you, sadly miss you,
As it dawns another year,
In the lonely hours of crying,
Thoughts of you are ever near.
—Children.
Peaceful be thy rest, dear grandfather
It is sweet to breathe thy name;
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.

WYTHEVILLE ITEMS.
WYTHEVILLE, VA. January 13
—On account of the very inclement weather the attendance at the churches Sunday was very small.

Misses Mamie and Ruth Wilds, of Rural Retreat, Va. are the guest of Rev. and Mrs. T. W. Hebron.

Born, to Mr. and Mrs. James Brown, last Friday evening, a fine baby boy. Mother and son are doing nicely.
Mrs. Flora Nickleson, of Bluefield, W. Va. is home for a short stay.
A limited amount of literary training, backed by egotism, conceit and selfishness, proves to be a dangerous thing, when introducing a gentleman of refined tastes and intellectual attentions to a congregation of people.

MR, HUGHES’ RETIREMENT. |
| HON. CHARLES EVANS HUGHES
has resigned as Secretary of State,
eftective March 4, 1925. This re
moves from public life for the time
boing at teust, one of the - ablest
statesmen that ever occupied that
hgh office. As a matter of fact, he
had reached the pinnacle of fame,
so far as q governmental office is
concerned and he ranked head and
shoulders above his aswctates. It is
tho irony of fate that transcendent
abilty is never recognize in the
erevation of the * possessor to the
highest offee of the nation, unless
Fate decrees that the indiv-dual
shall reach there by the “accident
route.”
It may be that Mr. Hughes’ retire-
ment this time is the final chapter
Im h’s meteoric, remarkable career.
So was his elevation to the position
of Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States, until the
popular demand was so insistent that
he reentered public life, There is
something magnificently grand about
Charles Evans Hughes that savors of
a nobleman. He has high ideals wad
the courage of his convictions under
the most embarrassing circumstances.
He has voluntarily left his polit-
fecal field of usefulness and those who
have watched his career, hope and
pray that they may be enabled dur-
ing the'r day and generation to gaze
upon his type of statesmanship again,

THANK GOD FOR two hundred Negro newspapers in the Unit-
“CONSCIENCE” Pr.
“The sweetest conscience we receive at last
Is conscience of our virtuous actions past”.
Tt was lately recorded in the annlas of
Congress that a South Carolina Senator be-
gah the New Year by saying:
“Whatever others may do, however,
let us as Democrats determine to de-
serve and win renewed confidence in
our party by developing BROAD and
CONSTRUCTIVE STATESMAN-
SHIP which will be approved by the
* judgment of the people. If we cannot
do that, if it is not in us to devise wise
and orderly measures for improvement
of agricultural conditions, for definition
of our foreign relations, and ‘for'right-
ng some OBVIOUS WRONGS
NOW EXISTING, let us’ at least
refrain from obstructing legislation
promising to be helpful, wherever it
originates. Let us clear ourselves of
disgraceful repute as ENEMIES of the
COUNTRY’S PROGRESS AND
BUSINESS INTERESTS”.
{
Though the conscientious remarks above
auoted were later stricken from the record,
after the pressure of other solons from the
Southland, who excepted to such a sincerely-
made reproof of the party of Jefferson Davis,
they cannot be removed from the minds of
men who know that obvious wrongs have
existed and do now exist, not only in South
Carolina, but wherever “one group is” en-
gaged in the past-time job of stifling the
rights, hopes, ambitions and progress of an-
other and weaker group.
It would serve no constructive purpose to
recount the “Virtuous actions past” of South
Carolina, Georgia, Florida. Mississippi or
Tennessee in such matters. where the Negro
group is concerned, as lynching. disfranchise-
ment, meagre funds for education, and a host
of obvious wrongs securely enfolded in a
program which would elevate one group
upon the backs of another. Iv would not
be especially illuminating to recall the yearly
recurrence of the striking out of Howard
University appropriations from a South Car-
colina source. It would not quicken the con-
science of any sympathetic offender who si-
ently approves unsanitary home districts for
‘one group as against the chance selfishly re-
served for anotler group to rise beyond such
a habitat. None of these would stimulate a
snuffled conscience.
But, when a man, in his own mind, and
apart from influence, reviews the “virtuous
past” and voluntarily faces his country with
a new conscience, and calls upon his coun-
tuymen to right the “obvious wrongs now
existing”, is it time to rejoice and thank God
for so honest a confession. It far transcends
the tale of the ninety-and-nine, who were
saved, but for whom there was no rejoicing
until the one that Was lost was safely enfolded
in the bosom of the Ma.ter.

Eufene F. Gordon, journalist, writing in
the December, 1924, “Opportunity”, offi-
cial organ of the National Urban League,
has entered upon.an able and scientific dis-
cussion of twelve “Outstanding Negro News
papers”. His conclusions show a deal of
careful study, “finessing” application, and
high standards of comparison, together with
a fine spirit of fairness. Such close com-
parisons, of course, are always. subject’ to
much criticism and comment. Mr. Gordon’s
discussion reminds us, somewhat, of a state-
ment of Lord Lufborough, who was at one
time a member of the English Parliament.
Upon reading the stenographer’s report of
one of his speeches, which had been consid-
erably “doctored” up by the reporter, Lord
Lufborough said that there were many things
in the transcript which he had not said; but
that there were considerably more which he
sincerely wished he had said. °
In other words, despite Mr. Gordon's
carefully prepared analyses of “Outstanding
Negro Newspapers”. we are=at-a loss to
know why he stopped with twelve papers.
As Mr. Gordon says, there are more than
two hundred Negro newspapers in the Unit-
ed States, the majority of which are perform-
ing splendid service; and, based upon his
‘own scale of journalistic justice, we feel like
Lord Lufborough, that there are many more
than the twelve listed by Mr. Gordon, which
we sincerely believe he should have listed.
Without going into on argument as to the
journalistic efficacy of the component parts
of the Negro Press, we sincerely fee) that
some of the remaining one hundred and
eighty-eigh! papers should have been consid-
ered as running a “dead heat” at least, with
Mr. Gordon’s twelve “finest” entries, if for
no other reason than the “outstanding” serv-
ice they are performing in the areas in which
they are published.
Here are just a few: The Uniontown
ournal, of Pennsylvania; The Topeka Plain-
dealer, of Kansas; The Louisville News, of
Kenucky; The Boston Chronicle, of Massa-
chusetts; The’St. Louis Argus, of Missouri;
The Black Dispatch, of Oklahoma; The
Philadelphia Tribune, of Pennsylvania; The
East Tennessee News, of Tennessee; The
Dallas Express, of Texas; The Richmond
Planet, of Virginia; The Washington Sen-
tinel, of Washington, D. C.; The Califomia
Voice, of California; and a number of others
which space will not permit us to name, all
of which we honestly believe should have at
least been granted a ‘‘tie” with Mr. Gordon's
twelve “outstanders”. °
YOUTH! WHERE IS
THY “STING?”
“Fond Youth, Fair Youth, Blithe Youth
has absorbed too much of the ‘jazz’ spirit
‘and too little of the sober, serious problems
which confront ‘us individual}, and as a
race”, said a mature business man, whose
balonce in the bank runs into five figures and
whose reputation as an organizer and pro-
moter of Negro business is nationwide.
“But”, said I, “Youth must sing and play
and be happy, fir in Ntgro life the seven fat
years are as a day, but the seven lean yeors
ofter maturity, are as ten thousand nights.””
“T know all about that”, replied the busi-
ness'man, as he carefully sharpened a lead
fencil, “and I don’t wish to appear gloomy;
but Youth seems to have lost its ‘sting’.
Youth is erasing from his and her vocabulary
the valuable requisites of Application, Con-
centration, and Efficiency, which all too fre-
quently are giving away to Pleasure, Care-
lessness and Evasion. Doing the ‘Charles-
ton’ or banking the ball on a poo! table are
exhausting time which might be more pro-
fitably given to mastering practical English;
late hours are killing efficient study; and
‘something just as good’ is being continually
offered by Youth for the real thing,” con-
tinued the business man, dejectedly.
“Well”, said I, with a laugh, “All work
and no play makes Jack a dull boy”.
“Yes”, replied Big Business; but Youth
has placed both in the melting pot of life,
and each is now a counterfeit. I'm glad”,
he continued, “that Youth doesn’t have to
walk four miles to school, study by candle
light, go to bed at eight o'clock and be up
at six; nor am I so particular as to Youth’s
knowledge of quadratic equations, Boyle’s
Law, or Marsh’s test for arsenic poisoning;
but I would be more hopeful if Youth would
add a column of figures cacurately, punctuate
with precision and stop, look and, listen to
see whether he was performing his services
correctly rather than in jazz time. I tell you,
Mr. Cameraman”, he said, as he tumed
away, “Youth doesn’t even keep on speaking
terms with ‘Concentration’ any more, and
Youth clings fast to the idea of never doing
today that which can be put off until to-
morrow.
“Oh, I'm afraid you're a pessimist”, I
shouted to Big Business,’ as he turned the
corner; while I hurried back to the Office to
put my ‘John Hancock’ upon a letter I had
dictated to my new nineteen-year-old steno-
grapher. Upon picking up the letter. which
was three pages long, I was chagrined to
notice that it contained only two periods;
and if there were any commas in it—well,
if there were any commas, then there are
two-karat diamonds in each of my teeth.
“Big Business was right—If Youth has
not Jost his ‘sting’ then it’s ben anaesthetized”
I sighed gloomily, as the stenographer asked
for half a day off, to attend a matinee dance.

500 AIRPLANES A MONTH.
THE U. S. A. JOKE.
FLYING SHIPS FOR TROOPS.
THE COUNTRY EDITOR.
The spokesman for the Mikado announces that Japan's relations with all treaty powers, including this country, were never more friendly. We are all glad of that. We have for Japan only the most sincere feelings of kindness and admiration.
At the same time it is interesting, and not amusing, to consider these facts: Japan builds 500 airplanes each month, keeping seventeen factories busy night and day. According to our Brigadier General William Mitchell, a sound authority on air service, this Government owns, in all, only 700 airplanes, big and little. And of the 700 only twenty would have any value as fighting machines. Therefore, Japan builds each month twenty-five times as many serviceable planes as we have altogether.
And we have in America only 450 pilots that could be used for air battles, in time of war. Japan, England, France have thousands.
The rich that fight taxes and yell for economy fear one thing even more than loss of their dollars, and that is talk of revolution. Just one thing could bring bloody revolution and uprising in this country. And that would be stunnerful defeat in war, with horrible loss of property, due to preparation. The very rich men and corporations that control this nation, dictate its candidates and its laws, should bear that in mind and not palm economy too far.
AUTOCALYTER
Attorney-General Harlan Pike Stone, in President Coolidge's cabinet less than nine months, has been nominated by the President to the U. S. Supreme Court bench to succeed Associate Justice Joseph McKenna, 81, who retires due to ill health.
FOCUS
Cullah, head of the American National Banking, has been appointed of the committee in President Coolidge's in- march 4th.
HAPPENINGS
The British, creators of the superdreadnaught, rulers of the sea for generations, are not neglecting their air fleet. They have organized a flying service separate and apart from Army and Navy control, unhampered by precedent and old-fashioned ideas.
Britain is building airships big enough to carry bodies of troops, replacing the old, slow floating troop ships. These ships, each with five million cubic feet gas capacity, will make on Shamano or Los Angeles look like a tugboat compared with a battle-ship. The ships will be put to work at once, carrying mails and passengers from England to India and other distant parts of the Empire. Thus they will pay their way in peace, and be ready for war when it comes.
Is not this country rich and intelligent enough to meet the situation, and keep up with the times? The flying machine was invented here, and we sit waiting for other countries to develop it, and perhaps use it against us.
Why must we wait for Europe to establish a flying service across the ocean? If our business men, that talk so much of superior private ownership, lack energy and courage to be pioneers, the United States Government should do it.
Instead of merely sending out of date battleships to cruise in the Pacific, we ought to send half a dozen dirigibles, bigger than anything England has, each carrying its cargo of flying machines and fliers, to make friendly demonstrations, and flying from the mother ships, target practice with imitation bombs against moving and stationary targets, etc. All that would be instructive, create thought in foreign countries and promote peace.
The editors of country weekly newspapers are the most influential men in the United States. Each one can influence at least one Congressman and two Senators, more than half a dozen so-called "big editors" could influence them. Two thousand of these editors publish this article, sending it into millions of farm houses and village homes. They should take this question of air defense in hand, and put it through, as they put through the parcels post.
Write to your Congressman and your two Senators, urging them to support President Coolidge earnestly in his determination to give this country an adequate air force.

Readin' advertisements may seem commonplace to folks who let their inclinations run to editorial jokes—who have cultivated appetites for detailed news of crime, which can shake their faith in people till it gets their goat in time.

Readin' advertisements when I've nothin' much to do makes a pleasant little journey in the realm of somethin' new—and, while sensation in the "news" may stir my peaceful breast, I somehow like to stick around the job that pays me best!

BEGIN HERE TODAY
"The Norwors Wreck," an eccentric young customer, is driving Sally the railroad station when they run out of gasoline. The occupants of a passing car, Sally's father, rush to the railroad station when they run at the point of a sign. Wreck takes five minutes at the point of a sign captive at a ranch along the way because the foreman, Charlee McWeney, needs a cook, and Sally's mother, a daughter, the wealthy owner, the ranch. Mr. Underwood, is the owner, and Sally and his boy and girl are expected to stay at the ranch in an underwood and his boy and girl are expected to stay at the ranch for several weeks. Sally and the Wreck walks on them in the dining room, and observes their discussion of the highway robbery.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
"I don't see why you can't have Charlee call in the men and start them out on the road," observed the youth.
"We've got work to do here," prowled his father, as he spread a napkin. "And it's not their job, anyhow. It's a sheriff's job."
The Wreck. He was indulging soup
at the serving table, never spilled a
drop. He merely prolonged the task,
as he listened.
"It seems to me he ought to have some deputy you could get hold of," categorized Harriet Underwood.
"Don't want his deputy I don't be business with deputies. I want the man in charge. Lord know. I may enough taxes in the county to be a 'go when I want one. He must be a fire sheriff to let a state of arrest like this go."
"Well, I guess you could get another one sheriff. If you wanted to," remarked the young man, with an effort at stress.
11th Sister glared at him
The father glared at him.
"Don't be on ass. Cheer. What we want now is 'surrender' on the son. We're not running next year's election."
The Wes having indulged soup into three plates, poured one of them up and turned over the sale. Then was the plate and there was no impulse in leaving to promenade.
He had the plate in front of Miss Underwood, and then for the first time since he had entered the room, he seemed to attract family attention.
The girl gave me a casual look and picked up her napkin Chester's examination was equally brief. Servants were a matter of no great interest, either to himself or his sister. But the scrutiny of Jerome Wood was more prolonged. The wood was painfully and wished that he had his glasses, he wanted to read the big man's expression more accurately.
He had attached a second plate of soup owner before it before the ranch owner before a word was addressed to him.
"You didn't work here last summer," announced Underwood.
"No, sir."
It was a bitter wrench, but the Wreck kept his voice low and respectful.
"What's your name?"
"Williams."
"Where are you from?"
"Pittsburg, sir."
"Just working here for the summer?"
"Yes, sir."
Underwood nodded and picked up his spoon. The Wreck moved off toward the serving table and got another plate of soup. He felt as though he were treading on air. He did not believe he was going to mind waiting on the hog, after all; it was so much satisfaction to fool him.
The head of the ranch ate his soup with purposeful speed, pushed back the plate and began drumming on the table with the tips of his thick fingers.
"It's a fine telephone service we

"get out here," he says. "I suppose that girl hasn't bothered her head about it since."
"But of course it may take time to locate him, father," said Miss Underwood
"It ought not to What's a sheriff for? He supposed to be within call, if I know anything about his business. Here a bunch of high-robbers running around the country and darling he's never heard about it. And they talk about improving the roads for tourists!"
Jerome Underwood's voice trailed off in a low growl and he continued to drum with his fingers.
"Well, I wanted to take a shot at the one in the road and you wouldn't let me," complained Chester
"That would have been fine business, wouldn't it?" observed his father. "He'd have shot every last one of us before you could lift your finger You never had a chance after you got out of the car. If you wanted to take a shot at him, why didn't you do it before you climbed out?"

didn't think that the country was running wild, with a lot of desperate does doing as they dreaded please. But we found out differently didn't we? You shoot at him! Why were three more of them up by his car I saw them."
"Timothy said he didn't see anybody else." said Miss Underwood.
"Timothy's a blind ass. What do you expect of a chauffeur who is scared so stiff that he forgets how to work a tire pump? I say there were three men, lined up at the side of the road—with guns. Why, if it hadn't been for them I'd have had the other one."
The Wreck collected the soup plates and piled them carefully,
Her father mumbled something that did not appear to be a reply. The Wreck was feeling jubilant. He would not have missed waiting on table for the world. Now he knew how deeply he had bitten into the pride of Jerome Underwood; for even in the intimacy of the family circle Underwood had not confessed his humiliation at the crank of the fliver. He had been hidden from the family sight as he toiled, and now he was hiding the story. Too bad, thought the Wreck, that he had not marched the whole family up where they could see.

the kitchen, where he found standing in the middle of the floor, her hands clasped and an anxious look on her face. "Is it all right?" she whispered. "Sure it is." he said. "I am aware of the meaner than his words. Sally breathed deepy and exhaled a long sigh.
"I was getting anxious," she said.
"You were gone so terribly long. Didn't they ask you a lot of questions, or anything?"
"They're too busy telling each other how they were held up by four men he observed."
"Four."
"Yes—the liars. Four deseradoes. Underwood says. Me—" The Wreck peered down at his white jacket and apron and smiled wryly "Me—I'm four deseradoes."
Sally did not join in the smile. She was ready to admit that he was one dead man, the very least.
"Tell me everything they said. Henry."
"I've got to go back. Give me the next tray full. I'll tell you about it afterward. I'm getting some information now."
Sally hurried with the tray and the Wreck went back to the dining room. Underwood was still drumming on the table. He glanced at the tray as it passed him, ceased drumming and riveted his eye on the omelette. Even a dyspeptic, which the boss of the ranch was not, would have viewed it with attention. The Wreck was actually proud to carry it, for not only but in an object of beauty itself but Sally had found it necessary to marshmilk it with, so that it was art in a frame.
Two minutes later Underwood looked up from his plate and fixed his glance on the Wreck.
"Say, who made this omelette?"
he demanded.
The large man helped himself to another mouthful and lingered over
"Not the same cook who was bare last summer," he announced.
"The Underwood family sighed comfortably. in unison.
"At last, father, we've got somebody who can cook." said Harriet.
"Remember how awful it was last summer?"
The boss of the ranch nodded and reached for the omelite platter.
"Tell your wife that she's a good cook" he said. "Tell her to keep it up. Tell her to have fried chicken tonight, and browned potatoes, and beans, and corn, if she's got any—and more biscuits. Understand More biscuits. Coffee, too. And I want her to make some pie. If she hasn't got stuff to make pie out of well served it. And tell her to cook a lot of everything."
Harriet Underwood frowned and glanced at her brother.
"Remember, father," the doctor said—
"The doctor's in New York," interrupted Underwood. "What he doesn't know will never get into his bill. Don't forget, Williams—whatever you said your name was—have your wife keep right on cooking."
The Wreck, passing the bisons again, acknowledged the command with a nod. He was hungry himself and he hoped there would be something left of the omelette, although he could see that the chances were against him. He did not need to be told that Sally Morgan could cook; he knew it before they back at the Bar in the town often her out of the kitchen and ran things to suit herself.
"You can eat more out in the country," observed Underwood, parentally talking to himself, the dry air and the alitie in New York—

A perfect cure has been effected by L. J. Hayden's Pure Herb Medicines. After waiting thirteen years and have not suffered from the horrible disease, Gravel. I desire to make a statement to L. J. Hayden. Thirteen years ago twelve leading physician of my city treated me for Kidney trouble and gravel without the desired benefit. These doctors advised me to be operated on, as that was the only chance for me. I was advised to go and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicine and try to cure being operated on. I did no, and in twenty-four hours after using his medicine I passed at least a half dozen gravel, some as big as a large jar. Since that time I have not suffered with the gravel. I highly recommend L. J. Hayden's medicine to all suffering humanity I am. J. A. PAGE.

I was cured of a very, very case of Rheumatism by two bottles of I. J. Hayden's wonderful Herb Medicine, after suffering a long time with the dreadful disease. I was unable to move hand or foot, and after I had taken three doses of the medicine I was able to get out of my bed and walk across the floor, and only two bottles of the medicine made me a perfectly well man to every respect. I cannot give Mr. J. Hayden too much praise for when he has done for me. I can do many other things also better curred. My daughter was also cured of Rheumatism and Indication by I. J. Hayden's Herb Medicines at No 220 W. Broad Street, Richmond Va. I recommend Mr. L. J. Hayden as one of the greatest healers of the sick in earth. Respectfully
