N Men of Heroic MWd
There have been men 'of heroic
mold among the Omahas of old.
Their chief when settlers began to
pour into the'Missouri vallev in 1854

He was the son of the trader,
Lucien Fonterielle, and his beautiful
Indian wife, and the great grandson

The business' ability of thr? Indians
' displayed itself then hy the demand
for $10 for every settler.
It was he who signed the treaty

He, died at 30 fighting the Sioux.
After killing three of his adversaries'
he fell, pierced wwij"14 arrows, aricl
his scalplock was borne off by his
foes. , ),
' Most ancient of the heroic chiefs
of the Omahas was. Blackbird, who
' ruled at the beginning of the 18th
century. ,
The Indian legends conperning his
supernatural powers differ widely
from the accounts of the skeptical
trappers and fur. buyers who roam
ed this region
Killed By Will Power
TJie story they tell is that a trader
kept Blackbird supplied 'with arsenic
which he used in ways.tcr show his
power.
From time to time he would prej.
v diet the death of some member m
the tribe, and even telj the symp-toms.
Judicious use of the paion would
prove his ability as a prophet, and
then his reputation grew until it was
' said that ne could cause the Wlh
of men bv merely willing it .
To avoid the unpopularity tliat
would, have followed tb.19 deadly
reputation, it. said that Blackbird
would every now ana then aamin

Head of German
Republic Seeks Job
1 German President Worried
About Making a Living .
After Term Expires. ' .
Berlin, Sept 25. Friedrich Ebert,,
the harnessmaker president of the
German republic, is worried about
making a livelihood after his term
expires, according to friends. It is
expected that the first popular pses
idential election in Germany' will be
held in November Ebert having the
character of a provisional president
elected by the national assembly.
, Just what he shall do to earn a
livingSfor his family after November
is said to worry President Ebert not
a little. His sal.iry is 100,000 marks
a year (about $2,500 in United States
money.) Of that amount he is com
pelled to pay 40.000 marks income
tax, leaving him hut 60,000 marks, or
, abeut $1,500. That he cannot put
much of that in a savings bank for
the proverbial "rainy day" is- ob
vious. In fact, his whole family
works now. One son is a reporter
on the socialist organ yorwaerts. his
other son. works in an optical estab
lishment while a daughter is peeling
potatoes, sweeping and making beds
on a large farm where she is learn
ing tokbecome a wirtschafterin,"
that is managing hpusekeeper."
Noske is trying to start a move
, ment for a pension for ' Gcfmany's
' "past presidents," sufficiently large
to keep the wolf from the door and
. maintain the dignity of a man who
once has been head of the nation.
But he is meeting with little success
so. far. As a last resort President
Ebert can apply for state "unem
ployment aid," for which Germany
has paid out one and one-half bil
lion marks since the fall of 1918.

Detroit Manufacturer
Detroit, Sept. 25. Notic of suit
by the Republic of France for $150,

Metal company.
The Michigan Steel and Metal
' company is a sales corporation for
castings and metal supplies.
Uthcials of the Detroit corporation
refused to discuss the suit, saying
tney knew nothing of the cause of
action, but it is reported that a war
contract is the cause. .

Topeka, Kan., Sept 25. When C.
B. Haukenberry, who has a farm

Women Sufferin is Making Politics
Uncomfortable
BY ED STREETER
Dear Son,
What with prohibishun, the addi
tion of a cupalwo to the town hall,
a change of presidents, and the trans
plant of wimmin from the home
circle to the public square, this has
been a stirring and. memoriabel year.
I always knew .wimmin would set
the vote sooner or later. Once .a
woman makes up her mind sh
wants a thing tne Diggesi Kinaness
you 'can do the neighbors is to let
her have it.
The troubel is wimmin aint got no
idear of rule? when they go after
things. With, the men, now its all
laid down and above board. - The
first thing they do when they want
something is to make speeches to
each otler and write the papers.
Then they quit work for a decent
length of time which is a pleasin an
acreeabel wav to orotest aeainst
anythin under the sun. It its some-
thin theyve set their heart on gettin
nioYe than usual they throw an oc
casional brick at the sherif. Then,
havingot the thing out of tthe sistem
they fcrgit all about it.
Wimmin, havin no such rules, you
cant tell what theyre goin to do next
Its somethm like goin to the dentist.
It airtt the amount he hurts that,
worries you ' so much as wohdenin
J, where hes goin to, land next. "
Kill 'Em or Give In
Thcv eot us at a disadvantage
right from the start, of course, cause
we got to be polite to em. Now if a
t 1 j i 1. 1
mai), came up rjemna you an uasneu
yonr derby down over your nose I
guess you know what would happen
to him without my goin into the
arewsome detales. With a woman
its difrent. After youve pried it off
and got the dents knocked out all
you can say is "Really Madam, this
is annoyirt of you." When that kind
of 'thing has gone on long enough it
comes dow to a qtiestion of murder
or given em what they want
That was a' nice jiolite thing of
Tennessee to do fer the ladies if
they hadn't gone an changed their
minds the last minit . Never take
your hat off to a woman an then
pretend you did it just to scratch
your head. It won't make a hit.
Pooch says Tennessee reminds 'him
of a man gettin' up to giv a woman
his seat in the street car an then
V -'
'bashed your derby down over your
j nose ' .
thinkin' better of it an tryin' to
slide -back again ' before she could
grab it
ijranma Fairweathcr is all worked
up over the thing. 'She says there
ain't no fd'retellin' what th world's
comin' to no more. When she was
young there was two ends of a girl
that wasn't never supposed to show
her ankles and her brains. she
claims old man Fairwesther courted
her fer about four years an all she
can remember, sayin' to him in that
time was "Lawks," and "I want to
know," and "Go on." She made iH
up to him, though;- after she was
married. There those who say that
the' greatest blessin' what ever
happened to the old man was when
he went deef.
The influence of wimmin's sufferin'
is already visibel in thjs town. Re
publican headquarters used to be in
Poach Frisbees store. Now theyve
moved to the Widow Freeman's
front parlor. The widow's put a
sign over the door sayin': "Destroy
your, seegars and havin' wiped your
feet, "leave 'era. oa, the floor where
thev beloner." And over . in . the
democratic headquarters behind Abe
Martingales harness shop, the wim
min folks has' hung curtains in the
windows and is. eroshayin tidies fer
the back of the chairs. " '
We meet at Pooches' store just
the same, though, and things ran
along smoother than they might
have been expected to. "Ehis town
has always been divided pretty even
between, the true believer and thel
Democrats. Both parties kept abusin'
each other in a spirited an manly
way, an it began' to look like it might
be a good campaign after all.
Qualified Independence -One
day the MilNsrd paper, which
is independent till it finds out who
is goin to" win, came 'out with an ar-
tickle on how if Cox was elected
those what couldnt swim would be
drowned in a sea of beer.
Squire I'reeman, who's leader of
the republican party in this districk
an hereabouts, brought over the
paper one noon. Boys, says he,
Ibis is serious news. You eot to
stand behind the party solider then
ever.
An we allowed to him that there
wasnt no temptashun they could
invent which would make us wiggle
a hair. Thafnight we could hear the
democrats sinain over in Abe Mart
ingales harness shop.
Well, sir. in a few davs stranee
things started to happen. The Cox
fellows began to have a drawn look
around the eyes like a man -that's
worryin about a sick relative or has
gave up smoking fer lent.
Une dav. when we was settin in
the store remarkin on this, old Rufus
snyder, who has voted democrat
twice every lection since he put on
long trousers, came sneakin in an
set down ,in the far, corner lookin
sheepish. "You aint' in the wrong
place be you?" asks Pooch, .suspic
ioning lest theyd sent him over fer
to spy in on us.
.Mo. savs Kufus. ficetin witti his
hands. "You see the fact is I de
cided to go republican this year."
Well sir, you could have heard a
straw drop in that store. ' Then one
by one the boys sneaked out to meet
aroand the corner and talk it over.
Soon after that people got talkin
around as how Eb Punkleberry
cr-
1 : r ; 1
"those that couldn't swim would be
warnt gettin on vkell with his wife
an of course we fergot about Rufe.
Folks reported a lot of loud talkin
floatin out of the Punkleberry house
of nights an Pooch like to 'got his
eye put. out by a plate which. came
through the window while"hewas
takin , a nayborly interest.
Then one afternoon who should
drop into the store but Eb himself.
Ebs the kind of a democrat what
drowned in a sea of beer"
hisses the elefunts wheo-the circus
comes to town so we was right
sprised to see him walk right in un
armed. "I calclate you've come over
tp vote republican too," says Pooch
winkin. At which everybody laughs
hearty. .
Eb acts as if he' seen a gost. "Land
o' Goshen," he says violent like.
"How did.you fellows find that out?"
'After that it warn't no sprise" at
) 'a '
. r ( .
al! when Ben Snoooin an Aluhia
Briggs an a lot more of theold sol
diers in Coxes army come slidiii
over from the harness shop and took
a seat quiet on the dark side of the
store like they houed perhaps no
bodied notice em. Of course, we
couldn't figgerS it out, but we
wouldn't have been, surprised if the
angel Gahriel has walked in an
as.ked where he could cast this ballet
for Debs. ; :
Nobody understands it. There
ain't a eoul left any more over at
Abe Martingales harness shop, but
the young unmarried fellows an that
old Soak Hank -1'eters and Doct.
Slingsbee. Him bein the village
Doct, he alwayg. makes a point of
belonging to both parties til the
night before lection, an then goes
out of town.
All of which has nb?hin to do
with Wjmmin Sufferin, which , is
what I was atalkin about, but I cer
tainty never see the beat of it
.1 got to stop now. I hear your
mutber comin. I told her today vshe
could do. the milkin now, cause if
she's eujftaL tcy.me by law she's got
to do haSViy work. I guess it
would be just as well, though if I
walked down to Pooches fer a' spell '
now an see if there's any . news.

another 500,000 francs yearly by way

of classical French playhouses,, the
Opera, Opera-Comique and Come-die-Francaise,
may have to close.
Their subsidy is' already more,
than 3,000.000' francs apiece. In
spite of the high cost of their seats
the Opera 'and Cotnedie-Faancaise

Dedeagatch,N Sept 25. Young
King Alexander of Greece has once
more endeared himself to the hearts
of his troops. During the offensive
in Thrace he followed his army into
the battle area, and by his presence
thtre inspired his. troops to an even
higher morale than they showed in
Asia Minor.1, j
There's no doubt about itr the
Greek is a different soldier today
from.' what he was i the disastrous
Turkish war. Certainly he was pres
ent in overwhelming numbers, but
"He has proved himself well disci
plined, sturdy on the march and
keen for fighting.
Venizelos is ttspemsible for this
change, and. in his desires he has had
the hearty accord of the king. For
he has removed from high com
mands the socially important but
valueless generals of the old regime
and placed at the head of the Greek
foroes men whose chief qualifica
tions are knowledge of modern tac
tics. . N ,.'
The commander in Thrace, who
directed the : operations against
Thayar's men, Zymbrakakis, was
one of the first of the high officers
ni the Greek army to support Ven
izelos' cause. He backed the pre
mier 'because he saw in the rebel
forces an opportunity of advance
ment which he .might have lost un
der the systsm .of-cburt preferment,
and he saw also that Greece must
follow Venizelos A she chose the
honorable road.

Say It Strengthens Eyesight 50 in One Weed's Time in Many Instances
New Vork. Dr. Smith, a well known eye
specialist, and Dr. Judkins. a Massachu
setts physieias and medical author, make
tiie following reports after a thorough test
of a popular remedy for the eyes :
Says Dr. Smith: "When my attention
was first called to it I was inclined to be
skeptical. But it is a rule of mine to give
every jrew treatment a chance, to prove its
value.- Having specialized in eye work for
many years I feel qualified to express an
intelligent opinion on remedies for' the
eyes. Since this one has created such a
sensation I welcomed the opportunity to
test it. I began to use it in rh9 practice
a little "Over a year ago and I am frank
to say. that some of the results I havt
accomplished with Bon-Opto not only as
tonish myself, but - also other physicians
with whom I have talked about it, and I
advise every thoughtful physician to give
Bon-Opto Vie same careful trial I have
and thefe p no doubt in my mind that
he will eorht to the conclusion I have,
that it opens the dnor for fe cure of
many eye troubles which have heretofore
been difficult to cope with I have had
individuals who had worn glasses for ybars
tell ma they have dispensed with them
through the use of Bon-Opto. In 'my own
practice I have aeen it strengthen tha
eyesight more than 50 per cent in one
week's time. I have also used it with sur
prising results in cases of work-strained
eyes, pink eye, inflamed lids, catarrhal eon
junctivities, smarting, painful, aching, itch
ing eyes, eyes weakened from colds, smoke,
sun, dust and wind, watery eyes, blurred
vision, and, in fact, many other conditions
too numerous to mention in this report.
A new yind striking case that has -just
been brought to my attention is that of a
girl 12 years old. Two prominent eye
spcclalista, after a thorough examination,
decided, according: to her father, that in
order to aare the sight of her right eye. Idreadfully.
tne leic must be removed. While awaif--j
in an opportunity lor me operation ana
till undecided as to its wisdom, her father
was told it would do no harm to use
Bcn-Opto'. In less than three days a
marked improvement was noticed. 1 At the
end cf a week the inflammation had almost
disappeared, and at the end of sixweeks
the eye was pronounced saved. Just Ihink
what the Having of that eye means tfrthis
little girl I Anohei case is that of nady
9.1 years old. She ajUie to me with dull
vision and extreme inflammation of the
lids and the conjunctiva was almost raw.
After two weeks' use of Bon-OjS)o-the lids
were absolutely normal and her eyes are
as bright aa rnany 'a girl of 16."
, Dr. Judkins, Massachusetts physician
and medical author, formerly chief of
elinic in the Union General Hospital, Bos
ton, Mass.. and formerly house surgeon at
the New England Eye and Ear Infirmary
of Portland, Maine, says:
"I have found oculists too prone to
operate and opticians too willing to pre
scribe glasses, while neglecting the simple
formulas which form the basis of Bon
Opto, which in my opinion, is a remark
able remedy for the cure ad prevention
of many eye disorders. Its success in de
veloping and -rfrengthening the eyesight
will soon make eye-glasses old-fashioned
and the use of Bon-Opto as common aa
that of the tooth brush. V am thoroughly
convinced from my experience with Bon
Opto that tt will strengthen the eyesight
at least 60 per cent in one week's lime in
many instances."
Victims of eye strain and other eye
weaknesses and many "who wear glasses
will be glad to know that according to
Drs. Smith and Judkins there is real hope
and hela for them. Many whose eyes were
failing say they have' had their eyes re
stored by this remsrtyihle remedy and
many who once wire svlasses"" say yiey
have laid them asideS One jnan says after
using it: '
"I was almost blind. Could not see to
read at all. Nqav I ran read everything
without any glasses and my eyes do not
hurt any more. At night they would pain
Now they feel, fine all the
time. It was like a rmranlf to me. A
lady wb-i used it says : "The atmosphere
seemed hazy with or without (lasses, but
sing this prescription for 15 days
everything seems clear.,' I can read even
after us
fine print without glasses." Another who
used it says: '"I was bothered with eye
strain, caused by overworked, tired eye
which induced fierce headaches. I have
worn .glasses for several yearsboth for
distance and close work, and witnout them
I could "not read lny own name on ' an
envelope or the typewriting on Jhe ma
chine before me. I can do both now and
have discarded my- long-distance glasses
altogether. I can count the fluttering
leaves on the trees across the street now,
which for several yeara have lookedi like
a dim green blur to me. I cannot ex
press my joy at what it has done for me."
It is believed that thousands who wear
glasses can now discard them in a rea
sonable time and multitudes more will be
able to strengthen their eyes so as to b
spared thetrouble and expense of ever
getting glasses. Eye troubles of many
descriptions may be wonderfully benefited
in thia easy manner. Go to any drug store
and get a bottlrf of Bon-Opto tablets. Dis
solve one tablet in a fourth of a glass of
water and use from two to four timee a
day. You should notice your eyes clear
up perceptibly right from the start and
inflammation and redness will quickly dis
appear. If your eyes bother you even a
little, it is your duty to take steps to
save them now before it is too late. Many
hopelessly blind might have saved their
sight if they had cared for their eyes in
time.
