What Do They Pay For?
Recently Secretary Mellon pro-

Appendicitis, Stomach and Kidney appearing for clients before that
trouble when the real cause was
Colitis.
Colitis is the result of food wastes
sticking to the sides of the colon and
becoming hardened. They give off
uric and toxin poisons, which the blood
absorbs. The Kidneys are overworked
in trying to rid the system of these
poisons resulting in diseased kidneys,
high blood pressure, rheumatism, etc.
A physician discovered a prepara-
tion known as FERRASAL, which
will dissolve the food wastes in the
colon and eliminate the accumulated
poisons. It also aids digestion, keeps
the kidneys regular and is absolutely
harmless. It proved successful with
hundreds of his patients and

after leaving the government’s
service.
His ruling directed attention
to the practice, found to be
rather prevalent among certain
classes of corporations, of pick-
ing up men who have been in
government service, and employ-
ing them as attorneys, at liberal
remuneration. The inference

The St. Louis Post Dispatch
is authority for the statement
that the known fees of Mr. Mc-
Adoo and his law firm since he
retired from the Wilson cabinet
five years ago, have amounted to
$483,304, and the contingent
fees, had his efforts been suc-
cessful, would have amounted to
$2,144,000. This takes no ac-
count of the business of the firm
with clients, whose names have
not become known to the public.
These figures show that
among the former government
officials employed by private in-
terests, Mr. McAdoo has been
very liberally remunerated. This

An All-Purpose Truck At A Remarkable Price
The new Ford all-steel body and cab mounted on the famous Ford
One-Ton Truck chassis provide a complete all-purpose haulage unit
at the remarkably low price of $490.
Built of heavy sheet steel, strongly re-inforced, this staunch truck is
designed to withstand severe usage in a wide range of industries.
Generous loading space, four feet by seven feet two inches, permits
easy handling of capacity loads and provision is also made for
mounting of canopy top or screen sides.
Experienced drivers appreciate the weather-proof features of the
steel cab, which is fitted with removable door-opening curtains.

Life’s Evening.
I know a gross of ancient men
who rest, in life’s decline, enjoy-
ing sweet and tranquil days be-
neath the tree and vine. I live
where wintry men abound; they
sit beside the sea, white whis-
kers reaching to the ground—
from grief and trouble free.
They labored well when they
were hale, they earned an honest
wage, and salted down a little
kale to keep them in old age. I
never knew an ancient crook to
rest in peace like these, with
money in his pocketbook, and
whiskers to his knees. The
crook puts up a gaudy front in
youth and middle age; he pulls
his vicious, sinful stunt, and
scorns the sweat-stained wage.
But never have I seen him rest
in peace when bent and hoar,
with fifteen dollars in his vest,
and credit at the store. The
money of the busy crook is
easily obtained and easily
it goes gadzook! it goes,
and nothing gained. The crook
is seldom known to save the
product of his skill, and when at
ast he fills a grave the city pays
the bill. And if he reaches win-
ery years, to everyone’s amaze,
in some punk poorhouse he ap-
pears, to end his frowsy days.
Around me I see many gents
whose beards are long and
white; they husbanded the use-
ful cents by methods sane and
right.
A TALK WITH A HONEY
GROVE MAN.
Mr. W. M. Carter, Farmer, R. F. D.

There is nothing like a talk
with one of our own citizens for

to the anxious sufferer from
the dread kidney disease. We

there are a great many people
who patronize them, then tell
the home man they can not pay

the home merchants help build

words for them and comfort the
home folks. The mail order

the town churches, the country
churches, the town schools, the
country schools, the town afflict-

do not furnish any sermons on
people who die, to be read at the
grave, but they will get them for
you if you will keep the folks out
long enough for a wire to inform
them, with a telegraphic remit-
tance attached, and a train to
bring it through the mail or ex-
press.—Stamford Leader.

which should have been per-
ceived at first; our coroner was
never great; he’s just a common
garden skate. And then we view
him with disgust, as one who
broke a sacred trust, and when
he runs for county clerk we
thoroughly get in our work, and
so rebuke him at the polls that
all his hopes are full of holes.
Lowbrow Talk.
I hear men talk so much of
books, of art and culture and
such things, I find it good to
talk with cooks, discussing string
beans and their strings. The
growth of fiction never stops,
our barns and cribs are full of
tales, the season brings succes-
sive crops—a harvest home that
never fails. And people talk of
silly books as though they were
of weight and worth; reviewers,
in their gilded nooks, discuss all
novels on this earth. I’m asked
a million times a day if I’ve read
this, if I’ve read that; what do I
think of Bertha Clay, and of her
book, “The Haunted Hat?”
What do I think of Peter Kyne,
contrasted with S i r Walter
Scott ? Do I consider Conrad
fine, or think his stories kickless
rot? And so I like to talk with
cooks, and watch them deftly
shelling peas, forgetting all the
bunk of books, and every literary
wheeze. I’m happy in the bar-
ber’s chair; the barber is no
bookish guy; he talks with me of
falling hair and divers brands of
whiskers’ dye. The whole gray
world is fiction mad, a million
writers ply their pens; and I am
pleased to meet the lad who talks
of golf or setting hens.
