F. KLEIN, Manager.
On the banks of the Scioto, within
four miles of Columbus, on its north
boundary, stand two conspicuous ex-
amples of the work of the prehistoric
peoples of that vicinity. One is on the
old Fleifniken farm, on the east bank
of the river, and on the west side of
the river road, about a mile north of
the water pumping station and filtra-
tion plant. The other is on the west
side of the river, three miles farther
north, and is on the west side of the
road that skirts tne west shore of the
river. It is on the Shrum farm.
They are mounds of the same type
and of considerable size. They stand
on level planes, from which they rise
abruptly and symmetrically to a height
of twenty or twenty-five feet. It must
appear to any observer, wrrites H. J.
Galbraith in the Columbus Dispatch,
that they are artificial and not natural
mounds. The owners of the proper-
ties have long placed high values on
them and have not been disposed to
permit them to be opened. As a mat-
ter of fact scientific archeologists are
not anxious to explore these mounds,
for, while they admire them as ex-
amples of the work of the ancient in-
habitants here, they know from expe-
rience in exploring such earthworks
that it is extremely unlikely that they
would yield anything worth the time
and labor it would take to make the
explorations.
There are several less conspicuous
mounds in the county that Doctor
Mills, the curator of the museum at
Ohio State university, would prefer to
open, mounds that the general public
would lightly regard, if indeed they
would recognize them as the work of
prehistoric peoples at all. There is a
mound of this kind on the Olentangy
river near Worthingtcn that is hardly
known at all to the general public that
Doctor Mills has been watching for
some time. "I know that mound would
yield a rich store of treasures," said
he. "There isn't any sort of doubt
about it, but I feel sure that anyone
who would explore the two Scioto
mounds would get little for his pains."
Counting them all, big and little,
there are probably 15© earthworks of
these ancient people withim the bor-
ders of Franklin county, and five or
six thousaad in the state of Ohio. No
other state in the Union is richer in
the evidences of a prehistoric civiliza-
tion than the Buckeye state is.

Some persons are always in an un-
comfortable frame of mind If not down-
right unhappy. And this even when
there la not any real cause for unhay-
p in ess or grief, but when small of-
fenses or negligences to which so
second thought should be given are
magnified. The more one allows his
mind to dwell on theae things, the
greater he finds them. He views him-
self as being always in the right, and
recounts the favors he has bestowed.
These so occupy him he forgets favors
received. With this disposition, a man
seldom stops at nursing his wrong
thoughts in his own mind. He talks
of them to others, presenting the char-
acter of one with whom he is offended
In a wrong light, thereby doing an in-
justice. He is so filled with bitter
thought of his grievance that his
gloomy face and dismal tone cast
gloom on those about him. He be-
comes so morose that his company Is
disagreeable. Others, observing his
disposition to take offense quickly,
feel that it may be their turn next to
Irritate him. One cannot enjoy free-
dom of conversation when someone is
watching for slights. How much bet-
ter it would be in the first place to
say, "He meant no offense," or "Per-
haps he has troubles of his own that
make him negligent." Better first look
fairly at one's own conduct and see
if every word or every act will bear
being weighed in the balance. Life
is too short and too valuable to be
wasted In useless dissension. Think
the best and speak the best you caa
of everyone. Tou will be the better
for it and the happier.—Milwaukee

You Can Get Rid of
Tfiat Itching Rash
* There is immediate relief for skins
itching, burning and disfigured by
eczema, ringworm, or similar torment
ing skin-trouble, in a warm bath with
Resinol Soap and a simple application
of Besinol Ointment. The soothing,
healing Besinol medication sinks right
into the skin, stops itching instantly,
and soon clears away all trace of erup-
tion, even in severe and stubborn
cases where other treatments have
had no effect. After that, the regular
use of Besinol Soap is usually enough
to keep the skin clear and healthy.
You need never hesitate to use Besi-
nol. It is a doctor's prescription that
has been used by other physicians for
years in the treatment of all sorts of
skin affections. It contains absolutely
nothing that could injure the tenderest.
skin. Every druggist sells Resinol
Ointment and Besinol Soap.
Perspiring, Stout Individual Discovers
He Has Squandered Energy in
Pushing Elevator Buttons.
On the eighth floor of one of Salt
Lake's office buildings a stout man
raced perspiringly the circuit of the
signal buttons of the four elevators.
"Why touch them all?" asked a thin
man. *
"Because I want to catch the first
car down," answered the stout one de-
terminedly, the while he mopped his
brow and waited with a confident ex-
pression of having corralled the serv-
ice.
"But the touching of any of the
four buttons signals the first elevator
going down," protested the cadaverous
man. "Is that not right?" he asked
the elevator boy as they stepped
aboard a car. The youth answered
in the affirmative upon hearing an ex-
planation of the question.
"Well," said the stout party, "I've
sure been wasting a lot of button
touching."—Salt Lake Tribune.

BULLET HITS "EARLY BIRD"
HAD ORIGIN IN DIPLOMACY
Famous Phrase Which Is Often Used
Has Been Ascribed to a
Bishop of Milan.
ALL BARE.
1
Soldier Would Have Escaped Being
Wounded by Leaden Missile Had
He Been Second Later.
Private Blank was known to all hta
chums as "the early bird," probably
because it was an exact description
of the very opposite to what he real-
ly was, for "the early bird" was al-
ways late, the last man to get out of
bed at reveille and the last man on
parade, and when his regiment sailed
for France his chums declared that
he was the last into the transport
ship and the last out of it.
When his regiment was doing its
spell in the trenches "the early bird"
was sent for by his officer, and as he
was creeping along the trench to-
wards the dugout a stray bullet caught
him in the shoulder, just as he was
outside his officer's shelter.
After seeing that he wasn't seri-
ously wounded, the officer explained,
with a twinkle in his eye, "If you had
just been a second earlier you would
have missed that."
"I would, sir," returned Private
Blank, "or if I had been a second la-
ter it would have missed me."—Lon-
don Tit-Bits.
Real Cold.
An American and a Scotsman were
discussing the cold experienced in win-
ter in the north of Scotland.
"Why, it's nothing at all compared
to the cold weather we have in the
States,'' said the American. '' I can
recollect one winter when a sheep,
jumping from a hillock into a field,
became suddenly frozen on the way, and
stuck in the air like a mass of ice.''
"But, man," exclaimed the Scots-
man, "the law of gravity!"
"I know that," replied the tale
pitcher. '' But the law of gravity was
frozen, too!"—Tit-Bits.
Constipation causes many serious
diseases. It is thoroughly cured by
Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. One
a laxative, three for cathartic.—Adv.
"Don't Sneeze Into Your Book," Plea.
Chicago.—Mrs. Ives, who does not
sign her full name, writes to the di-
rectors of the Chicago public library:
"I wish you would stop people from
sneezing in library books. Print a no-
tice in each book, saying: 'Don't sneeze
in this book—close the book before
sneezing and thus save some one from
disease.' "
What He Wanted Most.
Employment Agentress—You want a
cook who will appreciate a good home
and good treatment, and
Employer—But in the meantime, send
me a cook.—Philadelphia Ledger.
"Do you approve of these barefoot
dances?"
"No; they are too barefaced."
Proof of Innocence.
"That's Green sitting at that table
over there, and with a woman not his
wife."
"Where?"
"Over there."
"Se it is. But she's some relative
of his."
"Do you know her?"
"No, but even Green wouldn't dine
with such a homely woman unless she
were related to him."
Contained No Thought.
"Litewaite says he wanted to get
that speech he just now delivered 'off
his chest.' "
"I don't like slang. Why didn't ho
say 'off his mind'?"
"Perhaps his remark was more ap-
plicable than you suppose. So far
as I could judge, his speech was noth-
ing but sound."
Such a Tenderness.
Wife—I had to discharge the cook
today.
Husband—What for?
Wife—Oh, she got so tender-hearted
she didn't do her work properly.
Husband—Is that so?
Wife—Yes. Why, only this morning
she refused to beat the eggs or whip
the cream.
Dangerous.
Miss Caustique—You shouldn't smile
so much, my dear. It is dangerous.
Miss Passay—Dangerous?
Miss Castique—Yes. When a" smile
lights up your face it might set off the
powder.—Chicago Herald.

"The Twobbles complain that mar-
ried life is dreadfully expensive."
"Why, they don't appear to spend
much money."
"No, you don't see them spending it,
but Mr. Twobble employs a detective
to watch Mrs. Twobble and she re
'ains one to watch him."
Dark Outlook.
Hojax—I told Miss Gotrox last night
that she was the light of my existence.
Tomdix—Then what?
Hojax—Then her father called from
the head of the stairs and the light
went out.
Feminine Charity.
Little Lemuel—Say, paw, what did
maw mean when she said Mrs. Jones
was queer.
Paw—It means, son, that your maw
was too charitable to express her real
opinion of Mrs. Jones.
"When you are in Rome do as Bome
does," is one of the proverbs that are
so old that their origin is lost in the
mists of antiquity.
It is generally asserted, however,
that it arose from the following inci-
dent, given in one of St. Augustine's
epistles: "Augustine was in the habit
of dining upon Saturday as upon Sun-
day, but being puzzled with the dif-
ferent practices then prevailing (for
they had begun to fast at Rome on
Saturday) he consulted St. Ambrose,
the bishop of Milan, on the subject.
The answer of the Milan saint was
this: 'When I am here I do not fast
on Saturday, but when at Rome I do
fast on Saturday.*"
Burton, in his "Anatomy of Melan-
choly," speaks of those persons who
are always swayed in mind and action
by their surroundings. "When they
are at Rome," he says, "they do there
as they see done."

Lepers Allowed to Mate.
The Russian Medical council has
given permission for lepers* to marry
with each other, but not with healthy
mates. The Lancet remarks that as
the birth-rate among lepers is very
low, the percentage of infant leprosy
is only about five per cent. But, it
adds, "it is imperative that arrange-
ments b© made in advance, and the
reasons carefully explained before-
hand to the leprous parents, to re-
move at once any newly born infant
from the custody of its mother to a
distant home provided by the authori-
ties where the child may grow up
without danger of acquiring the infec-
tion from its maternal parent."
For leprosy is not believed to be
hereditary, but the intimate contact
between a mother and a nursing baby
is the surest means of conveying the
Infection.

TOO MANY CHILDREN
are under-sizs, under-weight
with pinched faces and poor blood; they
do not complain but appetite lags, they
have no ambition and do not progress.
Such children need the rich medicinal
nourishment in Scott's Emnimon above
everything else; its pure cod liver oil con-
tains nature's own blood-forming, flesh-
building fats which quickly show in rosy
cheeks, better appetite, firm flesh and
sturdy frames.
If your children are languid, tired
when rising, catch cold easily or find
their studies difficult, give them Scotf'*
Emnlman; it supplies the very food ele-
ments that their systems lack.
Scott'a Emolmon contains no alcohol
and is so good foe growing children it's a
pity to keep it from them.

New Type of Prodigal.
"The people in his home town said
he never would amount to anything/'
"And now he's rich. I presume he
went back and paid off the mortgage
on the old home place, or did some-
thing of that sort."
"No. This old home place wasn't
mortgaged. He went back and de-
moralized his good old parents by giv-
ing them a high-power automobile.
Now they are the worst speeders in
town."
He Let It Go.
Fault Finder (in front of dairy res-
taurant)—I notice the word 'Dairy'
on your new sign Is spelled d-l-a-r-y.'
Proprietor—I know it is. I was go-
ing to have it changed, but the painter
convinced me his way of spoiling the
word was more suggestive.
Fault Finder—More suggestive?
Proprietor—Yes; he said it con-
veyed the idea of putting things down.
—Judge.
A Dire Threat.
"I know a man married to a woman
who hasn't a single living relative."
"Fine! He certainly can't have any
trouble with her relatives if they are
all dead."
"I don't know about that. Every
time they have a spat she threatens
to visit a spiritualist and call up two
or three of the most cantankerous
ones."
Professional Advice.
"Well, what's the trouble now?"
! asked the gruff old doctor of a chronic
patient.
"Oh, doctor," whined the profession
al invalid, "I feel such an awful pain
in my side every time I raise my hand
to my head."
"Huh!" grunted the wise M. D„
| "then don't raise your hand to your
head. Two dollars, please."
TOO EMINENT.
"Why don't you ask your office boy
to wash those windows?"
"I ain't got the nerve to do it, old
man. He was the valedictorian of his
class."
The Strenuous Life.
First Would-be Sport—I'm getting
sleepy. Guess I'U go home and turn
in.
Second Would-be Sport—The idea!
Why, it isn't daylight yeL

Him—Excuse me, but may I print
just one little kiss on your ruby lips
Her—No; I don't like your type.
Others to Blame.
"I'll not put up any longer with
your willful extravagance," said Mr,
Cobbles.
"But it isn't willful," said Mrs. Cob-
bles, on the verge of tears.
"What do you mean by such prepos-
terous language?"
"Simply this. I'm not setting the
pace, I'm merely trying to follow It."
Exception to the Rule.
"Remember," said the professor,
"that the effect is always preceded by
the cause."
" Beg pardon, professor," interrupted
the wise student, "but in the case of a
man cutting grass with a lawnmower,
ioesn't the cause follow the effect?"
Johnny's Hyphen.
A teacher trying to get some small
boys to understand the use of the
hyphen had written '' bird 's-nest'' upon
the blackboard, pointed to the hyphen
and asked the boys what the little mark
was for. TJ^ere was a silence for a
moment, when up popped, Johnny's
hand. "Very well, Jehnny, you may
tell us," said the teaeher.
'' Sure ma 'am, for the bird to roost
on," said Johnny.
Pathetic Yearning.
"For seventeen years I've been a
straphanger on this road."
"And you have no complaint to
make?"
"NGne in particular, although I have
often wished that I could see what the
scenery looks like."
What Do You Take for a Tonic?
Most everyone needs one
now and then.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
Is Nature's true tonic and stimulant, made from sound grain,
thoroughly malted and distilled to absolute purity which char-
acterizes it a medicinal whiskey of the highest order. With its
prescribed advice of a tablespoonful in water before meals and
on going to bed, Duffy's gently stimulates the stomach to healthy
action, improving the digestion and assimilation of food and in
this way enriches the blood and brings strength and vigor to the
system. If you feel "all tired out" after trying months of work
has sapped your strength, you should "Get Duffy's and Keep
Well," just as thousands of others do.

or dealer; $1.00 a large bottle. If he cannot
supply you, write us. Medical booklet free.
