magnificence most pleasing to the

Wounds received while fighting
with General Pershing in the Philip
pines have just recently caused Tom
Mix, the Fox cowboy-star, the great
est disappointment of his career.
They prevented him from becoming
an army aviator.
Mix tried to enlist at Los Angeles
in the aviation section of the United
States signal corps. He presented
himself at the recruiting station and
was given a thorough examination
by the army surgeons. The doctors
found him in splendid physical
shape, except for one defect a deep
scar in his left side. Closer examina
tion of the heart revealed a slight
murmur, and inquiry developed that
Mix had received the scar in the
Philippines, where he fought with
Pershing.
When he was a youth, Mix enlist
ed in the United States cavalry. Al
most immediately his command was
sent to the Philippines, where he
soon found himself under Pershing,
then a captain. When Pershing went
into the jungle to subdue the savage
insurrectors at Bagbag, Mix was in
the vanguard of the fight and a bul
let struck him in the left side.
Later he fought in the Boxer up
rising in China, where he was also
wounded.
Word comes that Theda Bara has
fully recovered from her recent ill
ness and will start work again this
week.

pearance in motion pictures was the

CONVOCATION
WELLjATTENDED
Hundred and Fifty Candidates
to Cross Burning Sands;
Banquet Thursday in
Masonic Temple.
While the annual fall convoca
tion and reunion of the Scottish
Rite Masons of Nebraska was
brought to a close Thursday night,
the stellar event being on the card
Friday under the direction of Tan
gier Temple, Ancient Order of the
Mystic " Shrine. It was put on
at the Ak-Sar-Ben den, where 150
candidates passed over the burning
sands and 1,000 or so who have
heretofore made the journey were
there as spectators, or assisting
in conferring the Shrine degree.
The last session of the Scottish
Rite convocation closed with a ban
quet in the dining rooms of the
temple, where covers were laid for
something like 1,200 persons. The
meal was served by the Scottish
Rite Woman's club. The proceeds.
$515, was donated to the Masonic
orphanage in Fremont.
Following the banquet there was
a program that opened with the
"Star Spangled Banner," followed
by an invocation by John W. Dis
brow, after which the Scottish Rite
quartet rendered a couple of vocal
selections. C. S. Haverstock sang
"God Be with Our Boys Tonight,"
and C. L. Vickery, "My Soul is
Athirst for God."

Left side down eye at right shoulder
livered by Henry Monsky. Rev.
Titus Lowe talked on "Echoes from

European war front a few months

Women everywhere tell their friends
how, through the use of Mother's Friend,
the wonderful penetrating external applica
tion, they avoided suffering and distress
before the advent of nature's most wonder
ful evolution.
Mother's Friend Is a remedy which
spreads its Influence upon the eorda, nerves
and ligaments involved, rendering them
pliant to readily yield to nature's demand
for expansion. The nerves, cords, tendons
and ligaments expand without that peculiar
wrenching strain, and nervousness, nausea
and unrestful sensations are naturally
avoided when the nerves and muscles are
relieved and thus are not tort and drawn.
By regular use, the lower abdominal re
gion expands with ease when baby is born,
the hours are less at the crisis, and pain
and danger is naturally less.
You can obtain Mother's Friend from
any drug store. It has been used by women
for over half a century, and is just as
standard as anything you can think of.
Write the Bradfield Regulator Company,
Dept. H. Lamar Building, Atlanta. Georgia,
