DESERT HERO KNOWN TO FEW
Doo That, With Its Master, Was
Savior of Many Lives, Well
Cared For In Its Old Age.
Rufus, tlio dog hero of tlio desert,
who has saved innny lives, Is ending
his docllnlng dnys in n dog scinntorlum
at Pnsadcnn, Citl., where he Is well
enrod for. Tlio end of the dog Is
not far off, says Our Dumb Anlinnls
In n recent Issue. Ho Is spent nnd
feeble nftor li Is many long nnd weary
Journoys over tlio burning nnd blind
ing Ennds with his pioneer master.
Ho will no doubt soon fall nslccp.
Lou Wcstcott Deck nnd Ilufus were
Intrepid pioneers In n llfc-nvlng proj
ect thnt received scanty support nnd
tardy recognition. Together they fared
forth on their mission of mercy, Keck
carrying signboards nnd cans of paint,
Ilufus' laden with saddlebags of re
storatives nnd poison antidote. While
the mnn set up tho guldoposts, or
painted tho water signs, the dog suc
cored many n prospector who other
wise would have died miserably from
delirium of thirst or the venom of
finnko bites.
Tho work of these two grout bene
factors Is over. Beck died In July,
1017, and slnco then tho government
has appropriated one hundred thou
sand dollars to carry on the project
that ho and hla devoted dog started.
Ilufus will be well provided for by
a veterinarian who was a personal
friend of .Beck's. Tho old dog's years
of hardships, of life-saving scrvlcd on
the desulmc vmtcs, arc not without
their reward. Ills many friends who
used to see him on the streets nnd
Pjit.hlin with approval ns ho started
out on his desert trips will not forget
him In his old age.

A Column of Nonsense.
The othor day whon wo wore eating
our dinner in at Mrs. Loin oil's Cafo,
we wore talking to n man about bolng
sick and ha asked us why some people
objoct to having a quarantine sign
nailed to tho front'of their house. Wo
told him wo could not toll and ho
wildJiS wondorod too. Aftor dlnnor
wo stertod to work but the thought of
the people who felt bad bocauso they
had to have signs on thoir houyos,
would not stay down and at last we
went over to soo Ed Davis. Wo wont
in wlthotu hesitating, hoping to find
Ed in good humor or not at home nnd
thore ho was visiting with a friend
who lives on Wost Sixth Street. Whon
wo had talkod a little we asked him
about it and ho said ho didn't know.
Then ho nskod us what tho signs wore
like nnd wo told him thoy were bright
colored squnros of pasteboard with
the name of tho djscaso on them In
big black letters. Ho said ho guessed
ho had seen ono onco when a follow
over on South Locust had ono put on
s houso so ho could lay off nnd get
his gnrden planted In tho spring. Tho
mnn who lived on 'West Sixth Street-
said thoy woro dlfforcnt colors so
pcoplo could have them to suit their
tasto but wo said wo guessed maybo
thoro was somo other reason for wo
had scon a red card on a bluo house
and cotralnly anyono with a tasto for
a bluo houso would not want a red
card or olso thoy would have had a
red houso. Ed Bald ho didn't know
about that but ho would think that
If a man was sick enough to havo a
sign put up on tho houso tolling about
it, he would bo sick enough to havo
a "furrccf tonguo and when ho was
that way ho didn't havo any taste for
anything. Wo nil agreed about that
nnd then tho man who lives out on
West Sixth Street snld he had some
thing tho matter with him recently
nnd thoy didn't put a sign on his
houso and Ed said that wnB strango
and ho seemed to feel honl had that
his friend hnd been sick nnd then wo
said wo had something tho matter
with us recently and thoy didn't put
a sign on our houso and Ed Bald of
courso not, wo had a pull and wo ask
ed what ho meant by that and wo go't
up and startod to walk around and Ed
said ho didn't mean anything only
that wo probably wero so clean at
our houso that we didn't havo any
germs with our sickness and wo said
that was satisfactory and so wo got
our hat and went. And now wo know.

It Makes Every Forkful of Manure
Count For a Bigger Yield
Ask any user of the John Deere
Spreader and he will tell you it is
the best machinery investment he
ever made not only because it
saves hard work and valuable time,
but because it makes every forkful of
manure count for a bigger crop yield.
Manure goes farther and does more
good when you use a John Deere
Spreader. You can spread manure
evenly, heavy or light no under
fertilized or over-fertilized spots.
Come in and see this better
spreader. Here are a few things
about its operating advantages we
want to show you.
You get a low down spreader
with high drive wheels. It is easy
to load from the front to the rear and
because of the high wheels and roller
bearings it is light draft a most
valuable combination.
No clutches no chains few ad
justments to cause trouble and it is
extremely simple only about half
the parts that are necessary on the
ordinary spreader.
The main working parts are
mounted on the rear axle, where they
cannot get out of line to cause bind
ing, heavy draft and breakage.
The beater drive is much like the
simple triple geared horse-pov.tr.
The gears are enclosed and run in
an oil bath.
There are so many other good
features about this spreader that
we want you to see it. You will
quickly see why there are so many sat
isfied users of John Deere, Spreaders.

Health and Appetite
Thero Is an old adago "thou shalt
earn tho bread in tho sweat of thy
brow." This might have been para
phrased "thou shalt earn thy appe
tite" bocauso It is generally recog
nized that It takes labor to lend zest
to appetite.
However, tho facts aro that tho ap
petlto is good without labor, when tho
body is in healthful condition. Ap
petite depends on healthful action of
the stomach and liver. If theso organs
aro normally vigorous, thero Is us
ually a good relish for food. Tho
health of stomach nnd liver doponds
upon spinal nerves being free and
capable of transmitting full impulse.
Whon this Is so, thoro Is health and
appetite. Chiropractic adjusting will
restoro tho conditions of nervous
freedom and vigor to stomach and
liver.
