Doctor R. V. Pierce, whose picture
appears above, was not only a success
ful physician, but also a profound
student of the medicinal qualities of
Nature's remedies, roots and herbs,
and by close observation of the meth
ods used by the Indians, he discovered
their great remedial qualities, espe
cially for weaknesses of women, and
after careful preparation succeeded in
giving to the world a remedy which
has been used by women with the best
results for half a century. Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is still In great
demand, while many other so called
“cure-alls’’ have come and gone. JThe
reason for Its phenomenal success Is
because of its absolute purity, and Dr.

Suicide Note Fails to Convince
Her That “Dickie Boy” Is
Lost—Couldn’t Sup
port Her.
BY KENNETH HARRIS,
International News Correspondent.
Kansas City, Mo.—Despite the fact
that Mrs. Richard B. Runyon, 17
year-old bride and erstwhile high
school student, has received a suicide
note from her husbandi and that noth
ing has been heard from him since
his sudiden departure from his home
here more than a montli ago, she
vehemently insists that her "Dickie
Boy” is still alive. Her missing 20
year-old husband wus a former
student at Beloit college, Beloit, VVls.
The youthful wife halls from "Sunny
Tennessee.”
In a two page farewell letter, which
Mrs. Runyon received from her hus
band shortly after his disappearance,
he wrote: “I have perpetually de
ceived you since our marriage. I
have been gambling, and I have lost
all of my money—and my overeotft
und hat to boot. And to think I was
cad enough to tell you I had been
winning!” the girl bride quotedi her
husband as saying.
Made Death Threat.
Continuing, she said the letter
read: “I am tired of It all, and I am
going to tie a weight around my
body and jump Into the river. By
the time you get this I will be dead.
Goodbye!
"Your Worthless Husband.”
This letter, which blasted the short
romance of the youthful couple, was
postmarked "Kansas City" and was
received at the home of one of Run
yon’s friend*!, where the pair had
rented rooms. Runyon eloped with
Ills sweetheart from her home at
Nashville, Tenn., to Henderson, Ky.
From there they came to this city,
where the young bridegroom secured
a position. He resigned this, how
ever, after a short time.
“ ‘Dickie Boy’ was always so good
to me," Mrs. Runyon explained to In
quiries between sobs. “He treated me
wonderfully kind. He told me before
our marriage that he had had a ner
vous breakdown while attending col
lege two years ago. I feel positive
that he has suffered a relapse due to
his former illness and has wandered
off in a mental aberration.
csenevcs ne Lives.
"I know that my husband is not
dead. He wiil return to me as soon
as his mental fog clears."
The child wife has abandoned her
search for "Dickie Boy” for the pres
ent and 1ms announced her intention
of returning “home to mother” in the
near future. Her father, E. C.
Wright, is a well known merchant at
Nashville and is said to be wealthy.
The daughter's elopment had been
forgiven, and the new sonlnlaw had
been graciously accepted as a mem
ber of the family, according to Mrs.
Wright, who rushed here to assist
her when site learned of Runyon's
disappearance.
Felt Incompetence.
Runyon Is understood to have felt
keenly his inability to provide his
wife with a home which would equal
tn comfort the one she had fled.
Neither the Missouri nor the "Kaw"
river has been dragged for the miss
ing body, and it is pointed out that
the wife and her family place slight
credence in the husband's suicide
threat. On the other hand, it is be
lieved, they are of the opinion that
the youth had merely shouldered too
much responsibility and after the
realization struck him had decided to
bury his identity for a time.
Police stated they would continue
the search with unabated vigor.

GIVEN SETBACK
Nebraska House Kills County
Seat Measure—May Cut
Interest Bate on
Tax Certificates.
Lincoln, Neb., Feb . (Spec!*.!).—
The house, Wednesday morning, In
definitely postponed a group of bills
permitting all cities and villages to
operate coal yards, public markets,
ice plants and like enterprises. It also
killed a bill making relocation of
county seats easier.
The house passed a bill allowing
$100,000 of state aid bridge funds to
be used in helping btiild bridges
across interstate streams. It is in
tended to make possible a bridge
across the Missouri river in n.orthern
Nebraska.
The senate recommended for pas
sage bills cutting the interest on tax
certificates from 15 to 12 per cent.,
requiring all busses carrying pas
sengers to stop at railroad crossings
and creating a state board of medita
tion to prevent strikes and lockouts.
PROTECT FISH.
Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 28 (Special).—
The house advanced to third reading
a bill, by Keck, which will permit
fishermen to take home with them
any black or yellow bullhead measur
ing nine inches in length. Under the
existing law the legal length is 11
inches.
The house recommended for pas
sage, after a lively debate, the bill
appropriating $50,000 from the fees
paid by hunters and fishermen for
licenses, for the purchase of lakes in
Northwestern Nebraska, where flow
ing wells are to. be put in to save the
fish from suffocating by frozen
waters.
The bill was fought on the ground
that it is a foolish expenditure of
money at a time when the people are
demanding less taxes, and defended
on the ground that the money belongs
to the department and that if fish are
not protected licenses will not be
taken out. The claim was also made
that private clubs are buying lakes,
and the state must hurry.

medical Freedom bill.
Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 28.—Two bills
pushed through the house by th£
Christian Scientists and other mem
bers of the league for medical free
dom have appeared on the senate
calendar, amended in some particu
lars. One €i these bills, H. R. 39,
prevents the physical examination of
school children over the objections of
their parents, save for infectious dis
eases, but not for correction of physi
cal defects. It also prevents agents
of the school board entering homes to
examine or take from them any child.
The other, H. R. 17, is intended to
allow patients in state institutions
the right to choose a doctor or healer
to treat them. The bill is aimed
principally at the university school of
medicine In Omaha, where the dean
refuses to allow anybody but "regu
lar” physicians to treat patients, on
the ground that they know all the
worth while things to do.
The Christian Scientists have had
the bill drawn so that one of their
healers may be called. The senate
standing committee has amended the
bill so that its authors are dissatis
fied. It makes the right to call a
physician subject to the rules of the
lnstitution,#where as the rules at the
medical college hospital forbidi calling
the doctor of the patient’s choice.

The senate Tuesday evening passed
the eugenic marriage bill by a vote of
30 to 0. It prohibits the marriage of
persons afflicted with social diseases,

of such diseases is provided in the
bill. It requires 10 days notice for

character, were displayed in the
house Tuesday afternoon. The
standing committee had voted to
postpone indefinitely Governor Bry
an’s bill to cut the auto tax in two,

$3,000,000. The house voted, 45 to 54,
to kill the bill. Two or three repub
licans voted with the democrats.
The senate Tuesday afternoon, in
committee of the whole, killed the
Strehlow Ku Klux Klan bill. The bill
proposed to wipe the Klan out of ex

“To the American People:
"The assurance, based on many
years’ experience, that there will be

it always a satisfaction to direct pub

Cross. This year it will open on
Armistice Day, November 11, and
close on Thanksgiving Day, Novem

such observance of it as may promote
a renewed consecration to the gospel
of service based upon divine injunc

science.
"By the terms or the Congressional
Charter which called it into being the
American Red Cross is charged with
certain clearly defined duties and ob
ligations. These it has continued,
during the past year, to discharge
faithfully and efficiently. There are
peculiarly urgent reasons to appeal,
this year, in behalf of an even great
er generosity than has been neces

the extraordinary demands upon such
services of mercy and humanity. * •

Lincoln, Neb., March 2 (Special.)—
The republican members of the joint

state’s finances is were unable to get
together with the democratic mem
bers on a report before adjournment,
largely because the democratic mem
bers fought shy of a meeting, but
they are ready to tell the people that
Instead of the deficit that Governor
Bryan figured up there will be a sur
plus at the end of the biennium, July
1 next.
Governor Bryan started It by de
claring In his inaugural that he found
the state owed at that time about two
and a quarter millions it did not have
money in hand to pay. The republi
cans said he must be mistaken, and
passed a resolution asking for proof.
The governor proceeded to look over
the figures for the entire year 1923,
and came back with a prediction that
the year would end with a $4,000,000
deficit.
The republicans now claim to have
discovered that the governor failed to
take into account back taxes ordinar

miscalculated the amount the federal
government will hand over for roads

Architect Said to Favor Cer
tain Contractors and Prices
Are Held Up for
Criticism.
Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 27 (Special).—
Architect Goodhue is to be put on the
spit again at the meeting Thursday
of the capitol commissioon with the
stone contractors. The state has
served notice on Sunderland Brothers
company, of Omaha, that it will not
approve the contract the architect en
tered into with them without asking
for bids, and that the work, which
consists of special columns, will be
let in a competitive bidding. The
architect’s quarterly payment of $6,
250 and claims for $50,000 worth of
stone furnished by contractors, are
held up pending the settlement of
affairs.
The state engineer, Mr. Johnson,
says that the allied contractors have
a monopoly of Bedford stone, and
declares that if they attempt to made
the same price for an quality desired
he will recommend that the contract
be rescinded and some other kind of
material be used. Mr. Johnson also

FLORIDA IDEAL FOR
CITRUS FRUITLAND
No Commercial Fertilizer Is
Needed, Says Expert Who
Uses Seaweeds,
International News Service.
Miami, Fla.—To make the native
soil of Florida entirely suitable for
the growing of citrus fruits not only
dust of commercial fertilizer need be
used, according to Charles T. Simp
son, of Little River. Mr. Simpson
has been conducting experiments on
his Little River farm, six miles from
here, for the past eight years.
The only fertilizer that Mr. Simp
son has used has been the so-called
seawood. Once a ye>ar this expert
with plants brings loads of seaweed
from the waterfront, mulching the
grove, and declares this is absolutely
the only fertilizer that is necessary.
On the strength of his experience
he declares that he is inclined to be
lieve that seaweed is a most splendid
fertilizer. His trees are weighted fo
the ground with fine fruit, yet the
mulch he uses, he says, is not a true
seaweed but a couple of little plant
like grasses which grow on the bot
tom of Biscayne Bay. These plants
are loosened by fish that feed on tiny
bulbs at their roots and float to the
surface and are washed to the shore.
He is conducting other experiments
with the candle-nut, which has a
commercially valuable meat when it
is freed from its shell. At present the
nut is like an enlarged hickory nut
with a fine kernel, which however,
sticks to the shell even worse than
do*s the meat of the Brazil nut. An
effort is being made to raise trees
from selected seeds which have freer
kernels.

Architect’s Quary Inspector
Blamed by Nebraska Com
mission—May Remove
Part of Work. •
Lincoln, Neb., Peb. ' (Special).—
B. G. Goodhue, architect of the $5,
000,000 Nebraska capitol admitted to
the state capitol commission that Im
personally knew nothing about the
stone that is now being used for
building the structure. He had repre
sentatives at the quarry to pass upor»
the quality of the material.
“I am very much disappointed, Mr
Goodhue,” said W. E. Hardy, a mem
ber of the commission. “We sup
posed that you would protect the
commission in these matters. It is un
derstood that George E. Johnson,, a.
member of the commission, and its
secretary, was given a raking because
he made public his statement con
cerning the quality and price of the
building stone. The governor is sup
posed to be the spokesman when there
is any news to be handed out.”
Governor Bryan said that W. E
Hardy and Walter Head, members of"
the commission, had told him that
they had received complaints about
the stone and had been making are
investigation. It now develops that:
the state has had three inspectors ore
the job at the capitol. Goodhue as the
supervising architect, through hitp
. agent, has been approving the stone
at the quarry. It has been figured out
that 10 per cent, of the stone already
laid has not the desired strength.
The governor says that if 10 per'
cent, of the stone laid is not up to
the standard strength, the low grade*
stone can be removed without much*
trouble. The investigation will be done
by Secretary George E. Johnson, as
sisted by Clark E. Mickey, of the
engineering department of the stater
university. A meeting of the commis
sion and the architect will be held!
within the next two weeks for the*
purpose of adjusting the price to ber
paid for the stone.
