CARROLLTON CHRONICLE
With Every Dose,
I Say: “God Bless
Milks Emulsion’
"At last, after nine and or.e-hnlf
years, I am really getting well. I
feel perfectly well (think of It!) and
I am sure no one came so near to the
pearly gates and missed going
through.
“Yesterday a doctor said to my
mother: ‘My God, Mrs. Stultz, this
thing is n miracle that she will get
well!’ My mother smiled her radiant
smile ‘and said: ‘It is time you gave
the public something for their money;
tell them to take Milks Emulsion.'
‘‘I have spent fifteen thousand dol-
lars in doctoring, climates, etc., and
one bottle of Milks Emulsion Is worth
more than all they did for me put to-
gether. and I have had the best med-
ical advice In the world.
“As I said before, I am feeling fine
and the rales are nil gone from my
chest; have no cough, hut I am not
taking any chances of getting a re-
lapse, so I am going to stay right in
bed and take Milks Emulsion until I
get my weight back.
“I look down at my feet sticking
up in the bed and say: ‘By golly,
babies, you are going to do some
walking now. Cheer up; your day Is
coming.’
“I can’t tell you how happy I am,
and I love the Milks Emulsion Com-
pany. Faithfully and affectionately
yours, ANA MAE STULTZ, Colfax,
Calif.” .Tan. 28, 1027.

Levee Work
Man’s first effort to control the Mis-
sissippi was by building levees. The
first planters thus sought to protect
their own plantations and passed the
danger along to t ie next fellows.
Gradually the levees were enlarged
and extended until they now form a
set of parallel banks long enough to
reach from New York to Chicago.
They have cost, so far, more than
$250,000,000.
Too Good to Be True
Mrs. Guzippe—I’oor Mrs. Nuckle-
down! Her husband treats her like
a servant.
Mrs. Gnzoof—What! Do you mean
to tell me he gives her all his money
and lets her boss the whole house?
If you use Red Cross Ball Blue In
your laundry you will not be troubled
by those tiny rust spots, often caused
by inferior bluing. Try it and see.—Adv.

in a duel near th.T banks
of War Bonnet creek
in South Dakota” (so
said the newspaper re-
ports of the affair),
there was unveiled at the Cody Me-
morial Association museum at Cody,
Wyo., Robert Llndneaux’s painting of
that classic fight in frontier history.
It is well that this incident was
chosen as the subject for a pictorial
record of his Indian-fighting fame,
for among all the Indian-slaying feats
which have been credited to the gun
of Buffalo Bill, the dramatic killing
of Yellow Hand on the War Bonnet
Is the only one which Is so well
authenticated ns to leave no doubt as
to Its actually having happened.
At least such is the conclusion one
reaches after reading “The Making of
Buffalo Bill—A Study in Heroics,”
published recently by the Robbs-Mer-
rill company, a book which Indicates
that for once at least, a biographer
of this noted plainsman has taken the
trouble to go back of the cloud of
legend and tradition that has gath-
ered around Cody, to seek the facts
and to write the true story of his
life.
The circumstances under which the
hook was written are interesting. It
was started as n collaboration by
Richard .7. Walsh and Milton Sals-
bury, son of Nate Salsbury, Cody’s
partner in the Wild West show, but
before the first chapter was written
Salsbury died. Walsh continued the
work with the assistance of Salsbury’s
widow nnd sister. “Our Inrgest in-
debtedness. however,” says tl.e fore-
word, “is to Johnny Baker, the foster
son of Cody nnd custodian of the mu-
seum at his grave. Our purpose was
not so much to tell the story of a life
as to study the processes by which a
semilegendary figure was created. Un-
like those popular heroes who grow In
folklore fortuitously, Buffalo Bill was
the subject of the deliberate and in-
finitely skillful use of publicity.
“Bill Cody himself is well wonth
knowing. Flctionized versions of his
life have been appearing for half a
century; to add another such would
be worse than futile. We wanted to find
and tell the true facts, which seemed
to us much more dramatic than the
fiction and more romantic because
they are credible.” And their search
for the facts led them to a conclusion
which Is, perhaps, as true an eval-
uation of Buffalo Bill as lias ever yet
been written. It is contained In the
chapter, “The Last of the Great
Scouts,” from which the following
excerpts are taken:
Man and boy, William F. Cody lived
♦.he whole apan of the winning of the
3UFTAW buz, rsp'SKowmir
West. He first crossed the Missouri
when It was the jumping-off place of
civilization. He lived to see the plains
crisscrossed with barbed wire and hard
roads, to hear airplanes zoom over the
passes whero the prairie schooners had
lumbered, to promote a canal and say
proudly, "Ain't I the father of Irri-
gation?’’ to own roadside Inns in the
mountains and even to project a dude
ranch. . . .
Of those who worshiped him as the
valorous champion that beat back the
redskin and saved an inland empire,
few realized that his active life on the
plains ended when he was but twenty-
six years old. The Indian wars were
over; the plains had no future to offer
him, end he was wondering whether
he could get a Job In the city as coach-
man or driver of a fire engine.
Then came Ned Buntllne, the dime
novelist, and, on his heels, John Burks,
probably the greatest all-round press
agent that ever lived, to persuade him,
magnify him and make him their
creature.
Certainly no Individual, before the
days of movies and radio, ever had
such effective personal exploitation.
Foi nearly half a century he was con-
tinuously held before the public, In the
pages of nickel and dime novels, on
the boards in blood and thunder melo-
dramu and in the astounding Wild
West show which toured from the tank
towns to the very thrones of Eu-
rope. . . .
Truth about him has been hard to
come oy. Those who knew him In
youth are dead or forgetful. The rec-
ords are brittle, sparse and often fab-
ulous For fortunately there is at the
disposal of the authors of this vol-
ume a mass of ’’Buffalobilia’’ never be-
fore available to any biographer. . . .
Burrowing in these collections and
in the historical records, we learn, as
might be guessed, that the flesh-and-
blood Bill Cody was. somewhat less in
stature than the Buffalo Bill of the
ink and the limelight. But we learn,
too that his life had hidden romances
into which the professional romancers
did not delve. Even if he had fought
all the Indians that were credited to
him, the youth on the plains could nev-
er have rivaled in courage and endur-
ance the man that Buffalo Bill be-
came as he fought debts and disaster
and illness and injustice In his old age,
Let none doubt that he was then a
h Tlie story of Buffalo Bill’s life as it
is usually told, is so well-known as
to need no retelling here—how he was
born in Iowa in 1846, went with Ids
parents to Kifnsas during the anti-
sinvery tight of the fifties, and how
ids father was killed because he was
„ I'ree-Soiiio' Then the eleven-year-
old hoy got a job with Russell, Major
and Waddell, the famous outfit of
freighters, and near Fort Kearney,
Neb., killed Ids first Indian. Although
“upon tills feat, the whole structure
of Buffalo Bill’s prestige ns a Indian
killer was reared,” no historical rec-
ord of It has ever been found and
such conflicting stories have been told
about it that there is a legitimate
doubt as to the truth of any of the
circumstances surrounding the inci-
dent which gave Billy Cody the title
of “The youngest Indian slayer on the
pluins.”
In fact the dime novelists, such as
Col. Prentiss Ingraham and Ned
Buntline, have so confused the record
of Buffalo Bill’s life with their exag-
gerations that doubt can easily he
cast upon many other feats attributed
to him and alleged to have been per-
formed during Ids earily friendship
with Wild Bill Hiekok, ns a soldier in
the Civil war, as a pony express rider
nnd ns a scout in the Indian wars.
Especially is this true in the latter
case, and in particular in regard to
an incident, second only to the Yellow
Hand killing for its publicity value.
That was the killing of Chief Tall
Bull at the Hattie of Summit Springs.
Colo., in 1869. Although Cody is
credited with having killed Tall Bull,
strongest evidence points to MaJ.
Frnnk North, organizer of the famous
Pawnee Scouts, as the actual slayer of
that chief.
It was at this time that Ned Bunt-
line appeared in Cody’s life nnd the
heroics, which were continued by
Burke during Cody’s career as a
showman, began. They “made” Buf-
falo Bill the popular hero and the
man of world renown. Though ten
years has elapsed since Ids death, that
renown survives. The chapter, “The
Magic of a Name.” says:
The spirit of Buffalo Bill . .
broods not only over the promontory
(Lookout mountain, near Denver,
where he Is burled) on the margin of
the prairies where he chased the buf-
falo, but also over the Big Horn Basin
where he pioneered and skylarked.
Wyoming celebrates his birthday
each February. In the town which he
founded he rides forever on a horse
of bronze, and where the Cody trail
winds off toward the Yellowstone
stands a replica of the TE ranch
house. More than a decade after hln
death the name of Buffalo Bill still
has magic to draw the crowds.
Railway advertisements lure travel-
ers into the Buffalo Bill country. Dudes
go to the ranches in Increasing num-
bers. In the shops of Cody they
earnestly try on and buy the chaps
and sombreros and lariats which en-
title them to play for a little while at
being rough riders of the West.
And each July dude and old-timers
flock to the Cody Stampede—when the
cowboys of the basin put on their
loudest shirts and come Jingling in for
a frolic of roping, stake racing, bull-
dogging and bronco busting, to keep
alive memories of the days that Buf-
falo Bill made glamorous.
Coal Formation
The geological survey says that coal
does not occur in veins, hut in struta
—that is, It was deposited and Is now
found in layers between and parallel
witli other layers or beds of stratified
rock, Just as one leaf In a book occurs
between und is parallel with the other
leaves of the book. These layers ure
sometimes wrongly called “veins,” hut
true veins cut across strata Instead of
being parallel ^fth them. Certain
black hydrocarbon minerals, super-
ficially resembling coal hut related to
the asphalts, do occur in veins that
cut across the Inclosing strata. The
gllsonlte veins of northwestern Colo-
rado are examples.
Don’t Bother Babies
A woman who is so fashionable that
she Is almost a stranger to her little
son decided it was about time she be-
came acquainted with him. She read
old hooks about the tilings mothers
used to do. such as singing lullubies
und rocking to sleep. And then, one
night, site sent her nurse out and
stayed at home, Just for u new sensa-
tion.
She crept Into her little son’s bed
room, and began to croon, as she
pushed the bed about, “Mush-a-bye,
baby, on the tree-top.”
The child turned a wonuerlng eye
on her, und then said, sleepily: ”1 say,
cut that stuff out, mother. A fellow
wants to get some sleep.”
New operas help to settle old scores.

Halt of the Uwsccfr for the year 1929
are of a topical character. The aim of
the committee seems to have been to
place before the Sumlay-school pupils
some of the great doctrine, of God’s
Word, ns well as teachings on prac-
tical life.
I. Who Is Cur Heavenly Father?
(Genesis 1:1. 2D.
He Is the Almighty God who cre-
ated the universe. God was before
all tilings. “Before the mountains
were brought forth, or ever thou hadst
formed the earth and the world, even
from everlasting to everlasting, thou
art God.” The universe came Into be-
ing by the will und aci of the personal
being called God. Man himself is a
creation of God. He was createc In
the likeness und image of God. God Is
the infinite nnd perfect spirit In whom
we live and move and hnve cur being.
He is omnipotent, omniscient and om-
nipresent. He was not only before
al) things, but the cause of all things.
II. What the Father Does.
1. He loves us (1 John 4:9, 10).
This love v ns expressed by sending
His only begotten Son into the world
that we might live through Him. He
not only loves the redeemed, but He
loves the world (John 3:16). In the
very essence of His being God is love
(1 John 4:8).
2. He redeemed us (1 John 4:9).
He gave His only begotten Son that
we might live through Him
3. God preserves us (Ps. 103:1-14)
The preserving mercy of God era
braces the following gracious bene
fleial acts:
(lj He forgives all our Iniquities
(v. 3) This He Is able to do because
of the righteous provision He made
for sin in the atonement wrought out
by Jesus Christ.
(2) He healeth ail our diseases (v.
3). This healing refers to the body
und soul
(3) He redeemeth the life from de-
struction (v. 4). Redemption Implies
the payment of all demands against
the debtor.
(4) He satisfletb thy mouth (v. 5).
This means that God satisfies all
legitimate desires so ihat youth Is re-
newed like tlie engle’s.
(5) He executes righteousness and
Judgment (vv. 6-12). The vrongs of
life are righted nnd man Is thus re-
lieved of their burdens.
(6) He pities His children (vv.
13, 14). The pity of an earthly fa-
ther for his children Is hut a faint
suggestion of the sympathetic heart
of the loving God. our Father.
III. Our Responsibility to the Heav-
enly Father (Matthew 6:24-34).
Christ came to reveal the Father.
The subjects of the heavenly kingdom
will love Him as the child loves Its
father.
1. He will give unto him undivided
attention (v. 24).
The child of God makes the un-
equivocal choice between the heaven-
ly Father and the world. The word
“mammon” is a kind of personifica-
tion of worldliness.
2. Will not be unxioos about food
and clothing (vv. 25-32).
The child of God who knows Him
as a Fathei will not be supremely con-
cerned about what It shall eat or
what It shall put on because anxiety is
(1) Useless (v. 27).
Regardless of what thought o» con-
cern one exercises concerning food
and clothing, It will be provided only
according to His will. In Him do we
live, move and have our being. God
supplies all our needs (Phil. 4:19).
(9) It shows distrust of the Fathei
(vv. 28-30). In the measure that one
is anxious about these needs, he shows
lack of faith in the love of God.
(3) It is heathenish (v. 32). That
those who ore ignorant of God should
manifest anxiety >s not to be won-
dered at, but for His children, those
who kcov God as the Father, to do so
Is to play ihe heathen. He knows that
we have need of temporal blessings.
3. Will diligently seek the Kingdom
of God and His righteousness, (vv.
33, 34).
This means that he will subordinate
temporal things to the things of the
Spirit It does not mean that a child
of God will fall to exercise proper
forethought In providing for himself
and family.
The Reality of Life
Silence is In truth the attribute of
God; and those who seek Him from
that side Invariably leurn that medl
ration Is not the dream, but the reul
tty of life; not Its Illusion, hut Its
truth; not Its weakness but Its
strength.—Marl ineau.
God's Promises
God’s promises were never meant to
ferry our laziness like a boat; they
are to be rowed by our oars.—Henry
Ward Beecher,

Sours
Lots of folks who think they have
"Indigestion’’ have only an acid condi-
tion which could be corrected In flva

restores digestion to normal.
Phillips does away with all that
sourness and gas right after meals. It
prevents the distress so apt to occur
two hours after eating. What a pleas-
ant preparation to take! And how
good It Is for the system f Unlike a
burning dose of soda—which Is but
temporary relief at best—Phillips

OLD FOLKS SAY
DR. 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 laxative prescription he
had used ?n his practice.
He treated constipation, biliousness,
headaches, mental depression, indigestion,
sour stomach and other indispositions
entirely by means of simple vegetable
laxatives, herbs and routs. These are
still the basis of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup
Pepsin, a combination of senna and
other mild herbs, with pepsin.
The simpler the remedy for constipa-
tion, the safer for the child and for you.
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 will last several months, and
all can use it. It is pleasant to the
taste, gentle in action, and free from
narcotics. Elderly people find it ideal.
Chums
“These two girls seem to he very
close friends.” “Yes, there Is a com-
pact between them.”
Muscle-Bound
Malsle—He’s got a lot of culture,
hasn’t he?
Mae—Yes, hut it’s all physical.
WHEN IT LOOKS DARK to any

Dr. Pierce’s Fa-

tion comes to

in every walk of

Dr. Pierce’s Fa-

medicine. It is
made from roots and herbs, sold by
druggists, in both fluid and tablets.
