" during the last few days, and the
situation was viewed with -considerate
alarm at the South Side market,
where it was said that a falling off in
o'the purchases of feeder cattle was to
be expected as a result of the short-
age of pasture and grain crops, caused
by the continued dry weather.
With favorable weather from now
on, the South Side market anticipates
,the heaviest run of stock' this season
of any year in the history of the
yards, stockmen say.

Sambo'g Desperate Race.
(Peggy. mads Invisible by Camouflage
Perfume, viilta an army camp. On the way
there a German epy who trlee to persuade
Ben and Bill Dalton to desert U thrown
by them Into the river. Peggy, driving
the spy's automobile, came excitement In
the camp, the soldiers thinking the machine
is running away.)
FAR ahead of Peggy a company of
negro soldiers was swinging
along, singing happily because the
day's work was done. Peggy couldn't
get by them with the auto, the pave
ment having a ditch on either side.
She didn't dare slow down for fear of
being caught by the soldiers behind
her. So she tooted her horn wildly
and went right ahead.
An officer turned and held upvhis
hand to stop her. Then he dropped
it in a hurry. He'd seen that the auto
was apparently driverless.
"Scatter! Scatter!" he shouted, and
the men tumbled out of the roads.
As Peggy plowed through she heard
a confusion of cries. "Ghosts!"
"Spooks.!" "Spirits!" "The auto is be
witched!" One big, fat negro soldier, instead
of jumping aside, went running
straight ahead.
"lie's just like a silly chicken," ex
claimed Peggy, impatiently. "Why
doesn't he jump to one side?"
Again the siren shrieked, and again
Sambo sprinted, his head thrown
back and his legs taking immense
! strides. Even in her vexation leggy
couldn't help marveling at his speed.
"If he ever eels chasing the Ger
mans he'll run all over them before
they can get out of the way," she said
to herself. ;
Peggy now heard another auto
coming behind her. It was the offi
cer's machine. She had to put on
more speed or get caught. Again
the siren screamed and the fleeing ne
gro let out a screech. To Peggy's as
tonishment, she saw him suddenly
pitch forward and throw himself tp
the ground. There was nothing to do
but go right over him, and this Peggy
did, waiting with a sickening dread
for the bump when the bottom of the
auto hit him.
But there was no bump. Instead,
the automobile sailed along without a
jar. Looking back over her shoulder,
Peggy saw that the car had never
touched him. Sambo had plunged
into an opening in the pavement and
thus aved himself.
But the officer's auto was now
close behind. Someone in it was
shouting, "Whoa! Whoa!" It was
the corporal, who had been on
guard at the camp entrance. Teggy
opened the throttle of her car and it
leaped forward. It gaind on the
other machine. The pavement was
long and smooth and safe. Peggy
began to feel that she could run
away.
Suddenly, however, came an unex
pected danger. There was the report
of a pistol and a bullet sang by her
car. Peggy ducked.
Again tlje revolver cracked out and
trUs time the report of the gun was

followed by a startling whistling be
side her. The auto began to bang
and clatter alarmingly. Peggy knew
what had happened. They had shot
her tire and punctured it. She had
to stop or go crashing into the ditch.
She could hear the corporal shouting
".Whoa! Whoa!" Putting on the
brakes, she brought the machine to
a halt. Then as the officer's machine
dashed up she opened the door and
leaped out on the opposite side.
The soldiers were plainly puzzled
by the actions of the "jitney."
"I tell you it has been trained to run
bir itself!" insisted the corporal.
"Didn't you see how it stopped when
I said 'Whoa'?"
"It stopped because I shot a hole in
the tire," declared a soldier, who still
held his revolver in his hand.
Sambo, the fat negro soldier, came
up cautiously with a bunch of com
panions. "It was ol' Satan himself a runnin'
it," Sambo declared, his eyes nearly
popping out of his head. "An' he kept
a screechin' an a screechin' 'I got yer!
I got yer!' I tell you, I thought I was
a gone cullud gentleman."
Peggy couldn't help laughing at
tjiis. But the crowd was growing so
large she thought she would be safer
away from there.
She walked back the way she had
come, looking for the building where
Ben and Bill had left her. She quick
ly discovered that she was lost. All
the buildings looked alike. Peggy
didn't dare ask any one the way, and
the rows of houses seemed to stretch
away for miles and miles. She didn't
know which way to go tro find Ben
and Bill, and she didn't know which
way to go to get back home. Just as
she was ready to give up in despair,
two soldiers came swinging along in
a hurry, their rifles on their shoul
ders. They were Ben and Bill.
"Oh, here you are," cried Peggy
joyfully. Then her pleasure at finding
them turned to alarm as she saw the

glum look on their faces. "Why,
what's the matter?"
"The captain is hotter than a hornet
because we let the spy get away from
us," explained Ben, his face brighten
ing a bit as he heard Peggy's voice.
"He has ordered us to find Tiim be
fore dark or suffer the consequences
whatever they are," added Bill.
"And we thought we had lost you,
too." Ben went on.
"I'll stand by you and do what I
can," promised Peggy, loyally; but
she hadn't the slightest idea what she
could do.' Chancing to look up she
saw a pair of swallows circling high
m the air.
"My birds," she cried, holding up
her hands. "General Swallow! Gen
eral Swallow!" But General Swallow,
if it was he, was so busy whirling and
diving with his companion that he did
not hear. "Oh, whistle, whistle!" she
cried to the soldiers. They were poz
zled, but put down their guns, placed
their fingers in their mouths and gave
a piercing whistle. Peggy waved vio
lently. The swallows halted, poised a
moment, and then came darting down.
Peggy was right he foremost one
was General Swallow.
"General Swallow, I call you to
service," she cried.
"You command, I obey. Princess
Peggy." responded General Swallow.
"Duty before love," and he bowed to
her, then to the charming young lady
swallow who was with him.

found in spite of his disguise.)

MORAN NOW TELLS
OF IMPROVEMENT
Suffered Twelve Years, But
Finds Wonderful Relief
By Taking Tanlac.
"When my wife saw how much Tan
lac was benefiting me she decided to
take it, too, and it soon fixed her up
so well that we are both praising it
to all our friends," said Charles Mo
ran, of 3204 South Twenty-third
street, Omaha, the other day. Mr.
Moran is a well-known contractor for
cement work and has lived in Omaha
all his life.
"About twelve years ago," he con
tinued, "I was taken down with yel
low jaundice which weakened my
system so much that I have been
gradually going down hill ever since.
I lost my appetite and just had to
force down every bite I would eat.
My stomach got all out of order so
that my food would sour soon after
meals and caused me to suffer terri
bly with indigestion. My circulation
aras poor, my liver didn't act right and
my kidneys were a constant source
of worry to me. Both my legs from
my knees down ached so bad with
rheumatism that I could hardly stand
it and I felt tired and worn out all
the time. My nerves were all on an
edge, so I could hardly sleep, and I
would get up in the mornings feeling
worse than when I went to bed.
"Although I was taking some kind
of medicine most all the time nothing
did me any good and at last, after
reading so much about the good Tan
lac was doing, I got me a bottle. It
didn't take more than half a dozen
bottles to straighten me out all right
and nwke me feel like a new man. Mv
appetite picked up right off; my di
gestion improved and soon I was eat
ing any and everything without hav
ing a bit of pain or indigestion after
wards. My nerves are all right and I
sleep like a log all night. My aches
and pains are about all gone and that
old rheumatism never bothers 'me
now like it did before. My wife has
improved wonderfully since she
started on Tanlac and now, this won
derful medicine has no better friends
in the state than we are."
