VISITING HIS OLD HOME
From Tuesday' Daily.
Frank Ptak and family motored in
this morning from his home at Ar
mour, South Dakota, and will enjoy
a visit here with his brother, Emmons
Ptak and sister, Mrs. A. J. Snyder,
and the many old friends. Mr. Ptak,
who is a cigarmaker by trade, left
here twenty years ago and has been
quite successful in his new home.
This visit is a most pleasurable one
to Mr. Ptak and his friends and will
be of .,some duration.
FLOATERS PASSING THROUGH
There has been quite a number of
strangers here in the last few days
who are apparently beating their
way from one part of the country to
ithe other. It seems strange with the
demand for farm hands throughout
the west that these men are idle when
.'they could be drawing good money
in the harvest fields in this state as
well as in Kansas where the harvest
is just being completed. The demand
among the farmers in this section
.for help is such that not near all the
needs can be supplied and good wages
are being paid for all kinds of farm
work.

GOULD NOT WALK
And For Four Years, Could Not
Stand Without Support.
Chillicothe, Ohio "Nothing pleases
me more than to speak a word of
praise for Cardui. the woman's 4onic,"
says Mrs. Ed Davis, of this town,
"for I firmly believe that it snatched
me from the grave.
I have been married 14 years, and
had two children. After the youngest
was born, I was not able to walk, and
for four years, I was not strong enough
to stand on my feet five minutes at
the time, without something to support
me.
Nothing seemed to do me any good,
until, finally, I commenced using
Cardui, the woman's tonic. I only used
about four bottles, but, today I am
well, can do my work, and walk as far
as I want to.
I can never praise Cardui enough,
and my neighbors cannot get done
wondering at the change In me."
You, too, can depend on Cardui, be
cause Cardui is a gentle, harmless,
vegetable tonic, that can do you noth
ing but good.
Prepared from vegetable herbs, Car
dui has a specific effect on the woman
ly constitution, and puts strength
where it is needed.

"THE ESCAPE"
ONE OF THE BEST
PHOTO PLAYS
One of the big picture plays of the
year has been "The Escape" adapted
from the great play of Paul Arm
strong, which has been arranged in
seven stirring reels bT D. W. Griffith,
the producer of the "Birth of a Na
tion." This is a soul problem and will
be shown here at the .Air Dome for
two nights, Wednesday and Thursday,
July 19th and 20th. The story in
brief is rfs follows ,
The play is preceeded by a pro
logue, "The Origin of Life."
May Joyce, a child of the slums,
longed for a better life. She con
tinually besought her father, a steve
dore, to try to better the condition of
his children. With the exception of
May these children were in a bad
way. Jenny was a pitiful example of
the visitation of the sins of the father
upon the children. Larry was fast
becoming a crook. He was hit by a
stove lid thrown by his father in a
drunken furv. The wound h?aled, but
the boy's natural tendency was inten
sified. "Bull" McGee, a power of evi
in the neighborhood, wanted to marry
May. To gain her favor he had Larr
set upon and, and after a fight, ar
rented, McGee obtaining his release
from the police. There appears Dr
Yon Eider, an ambulance surgeon
called to patch up Larry. Dr. Yon
Eiden was inrpiessed 'with the char
aoter of Ma v. "At all costs" he told
her, "escape from these surrounding.'
Partially as' a result of the faked sav
ing of Larry and because theie seem
ed no escape, May passively agreed
to the marriage with McGee. On the
morning of the wedding, however, a
flyleaf message from Dr. Yon Eiden
proved the deciding factor and she
left by the fire escape.
Janny's admiration for brute power
caused her willingly to take May's
place. May found work in an office
from which she was later discharged
In the meantime, she had met the Sen
ator, who, in admiration of her beauty
gave her his card reading. "If you ever
need a friend come to me."
Jenny's marriage resulted in a baby
boy which always cried, to the con
stant anger of McGee. McGee falling
over the cradle in a drunken stupor
the child cried no more. May, unable
to obtain work, finally went to the Sen
ator and found the "easy way". A
fancied illness ied her to meeting Dr.
Yon Eiden again. "You need now
more than ever to escape," he told
her. The Senator condescended to
offer May marriage, but she, influenced
by the words of Dr. Von Eiden, again
escaped and found the work she need
ed in a hospital.
McGee sold his wife to the promo
ters of a foreign concert dive. She
threw a note from the window and it
came into the hands of Larry. The
police raided the place and rescued
Jenny, who was brought to May only
to die. McGee escaped. He traced his
wife with the hope of getting money
and found her dead. Leaving there,
he was tracked by the authorities and
finally cornered and shot by Larry,
who had joined the chase. His mur
derous tendencies now fully aroused,
Larry determined to kill his father.
He was, however, intercepted by Dr.
Von Eiden, who took him to his apart
ment. An operation was performed
on Larry and the splinter of bone,
which had so long penetrated his
brain, was removed. Through the
man. shrdiu etaoin mahtm btma
operation Larry became a normal
man. May's love for Dr. Von Eiden
at last awakened and the surviving
members of the Joyce family became
happily united. May's escape to a
better life was complete.
