Alden of Papillion called at the office of Acting Chief of Detec tives John Dunn and informed him that he had received a report that his daughter, Myrtle and ' Frank Mc Carthy were seen in severa' small towns east of Council Bluffs. He left immediately for an investigation. A careful search of Council Bluffs Thursday failed o bring forth any new developments as to their whereabouts. Auto - Intoxication Explained! (By L. H. SMIThTU. D.) There is no question but that many people suffer from auto-intoxication and ptomaine poisoning. These are big words which afe easily explained. Thru the failure of the liver to prop erly perform its work the twenty seven feet of intestines become clogged. This stagnation throws poi sons into the blood and the circula tion, and one suffers from bad breath, loul taste in the mouth, and even yellow-coated tongue, headache, nausea or fullness. Gas often presses the diaphragm against the heart and causes pain there or acid dyspepsia follows: often the- inactive liver causes yellow skin and eyes, and one feels languid, tired and debilitated. At such times some people are ad vised by their doctors to take a min eral oil, often called' "Russian Oil," but experiments by R. F. McDonaM have shown, as lately reported in a government publication of the U. S. Public Health .Service, that mineral oil may act as an irritant that pro duces gastro-intestinal disturbances and that it may cause tissue prolif era-ion,- simulating cancer. A better method, which I always advise, it to take as much outdoor ex ercise as poasible, drink half a pint of hot water morning and night and plenty of water between meals and take a pleasant laxative pill occasion ally. Such a one is made up of the May-apple, of vegetable calomel, and other concentrated herb extracts that give tone to the bowels. This was first made and sold by almost all druggist nearly 60 years ago as Doe tor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Such simple means will remove that bug bear, auto-intoxication, constipation D'Bernardi Goes to The Orient Railroad A. D'Bernardi, general superintend ent of the Nebraska and Kansas lines f the Missouri Pacific, with head quarters in Kansas City, has resigned to become general manager of the Orient road. His resignation is ef fective July 1. A successor has not been named. Mr. D'Bernardi was born in 1865 and as a section hand went with the Missouri Pacific in 1882, continuing with the company until now. He soon became 6ection foreman and subse quently brakenian, roadmaster, train master, division superintendent and I then general superintendent. The re construction of the Nebraska lines and the preliminary work in the mat ter of elevating and rebuilding the Omaha Belt Line was a part of his plans for improving the Missouri Pacific.
