DIG FOR 50-YEAR
OLD SNAKE-BITE
rContinued From First Page]
. 1
days" sojourn in these wilds, with a
curious thickness of tongue and a
more or less amazing knowledge of
strangely-hued animals and things he
declared postively native to this sec
tion. Generally speaking, the excuse
was the same and until latety one got
sway with it. One told the wife that
snakes were more than ordinarily
plentiful and that one had to defend
one's self, didn't one, m'dear? All of
which lasted until some miserly space
thief sent out a story about the com
parative absence of snakes in this part
of the country.
Now, cowardly as it may seem,
here's another exposure of what in
time might prove to be the basis for
many a future alibi.
Really, it is all the fault of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. It
appears that in this neck of the woods
there is considerable swamp land
which the company is now attempting
to drain so as to make it suitable for
building purposes. Here, too, extends
the dry bed of the old Pennsylvania
canal.
During the last few weeks, a big
gang of folks with picks and shovels,
under the direction of Johnny Doyle,
have been busy digging along the
edge of the old canal. Most of them,
'tis true, are in the company's employ;
some are not. Here's the reason, so
tradition hath it:
Borne fifty year 3 ago lumbermen
buried a companion on the banks of
the old canal. Fond o' his nip, he
was, so the story goes, and grieving
fellowworkers he left behind, were
not so sure as to how "Jack's" wants
might be satisfied beyond the Veil,
when his thirst annoyed him. So they
placed a bottle of whisky on his chest
when they buried him—a bottle o'
whisky on a dead man's chest. Cap
tain Kidd stuff, get it?
This is the end of the story and per
haps you've got the reason for the
perspiring activity of the group of
pick-and-shovelers who like "theirs
without water and the older the bet
ter!" So, who cares if the bottom has
fallen out of that snake-bite defense?
DYSPEPTICS! END
STOMACH MISERY,
GAS, INDIGESTION
*'Pape's Diapepsin" neutralizes
acids in stomach and
starts digestion.
Stops any sourness, heartburn,
or food rising in
few moments.
<
The question as to how long you are
going to continue c. sufferer from in
digesUon, dyspepsia or out-of-order
stomach Is merely a matter of how
Boon you begin taking some Diapep
sin.
If your stomach is lacking in diges
tive power, why not help the stomach
to do its work, not with drastic drugs,
but a re-enforcement of digestive
agents, such as are naturally at work
In the stomach.
People with weak stomachs should
take a little Diapepsin occasionally,
and there will be no more indigestion,
no feeling like a lump of lead in the
stomach, no heartburn, sour risings,
gas on stomach or belching of undi
gested food, headaches, dizziness or
sick stomach, and besides, what you
eat will not ferment and poison your
breath with nauseous odors. All these
Bymptoms resulting from a sour, out
of-order stomach and dyspepsia are
generally relieved five minutes after
taking a little Diapepsin.
Go to your druggist and get a 50-
cent case of Pope's Diapepsin now,
and you will always go to the table
with a hearty appetite, and what you
eat will taste good, because your stom
ach and intestines will be clean nnd
fresh, and you will know there are
rot going to be nny more bad nights
and miserable days for you. They
freshen you and make you feel like
life Is war Lb living.

CHARITY BAZAR
CLEARS $159
Junior Aid Society Girls Pleas
ed With Success of Their
Sales Saturday Afternoon
Tn spite of the competition of foot
ball games, the Junior Aid Society's
bazar held in the Board of Trade hall
on Saturday afternoon was eminently
successful, and when the sale closed a
little before 6 o'clock it was found
that $159 had been emptied into the
cash drawers of each of the tables
In charge of one or more of the ener
getic little salesladies who compose
the membership of the society.
The cake table touched the high
water mark for heavy sales, with J3S
net, and the candy table was second
in its appeal, with $25 to Its credit.
The little girls were all garbed in
costumes befitting the nature of their
sales and few there were among the
buyers who could resist the appeal to
charity when clothed in such attrac
tive forms.

MONASTIR FALLS BEFORE
SERBS WHO ENTER WITH
FORCES OF THE FRENCH
London, Nov. 20. Monastir has
fallen. Outflanked by the Serbs, who
drove forward daunt lessly along the
ridges to the east, the Bulgars and
Germans evacuated the city, the
stronghold of Serbian Macedonia. The
Serbo-French forces entered at 8
o'clock yesterday moaning.
Thus the first fruits of their long
and bitter campaign have fallen to
King Peter's troops. They have re
gained one of their most important
citits and aa a symbol of the first
great step In reclaiming their land
have proclaimed it their capital.
The Bulgar-Tcuton forces, swept
back by the brilliant assault, ar© re
treating in disorder to Prllep. The
Serbians took a large number of pris
oners and huge stores. They aro push
ing aftor the enemy and already have
consolidated their positions on the
Monastir plain.
Great Feat of KTIM .
There Is a vast amount of Inspiration
in this Serbian feat. A year ago King
Peter's army WOJ in wild flight before
the invading forces of Mackensen, out
numbering them In men and outrang
ing them in guns.
Pattered nnd rent by the relentless
crunching of the German machine,
they were driven from llielr last foot

the task of reorganization. And now

tress the Monaslir plain will take its
place In military annals. Ridge after
ridge fell before the Serbian charge
until the Bulgar positions in the low
land had been turned.
Then the big guns of the Allies were
moved forward up the plain as the
Teutons, caught\under the enfilading
tire of the Serba on the east, were
forced to fall back. When the entente
artillery opened lire, the Bulgarians
had no alternative. They evacuated
the city.
Sarrall's Great Stroke
General Sarrall now lias accom
plished the most Important Btroke of
the entire Macedonian campaign. It
comes at an opportune moment, for It
la bound to have an Immense effect on
the Rumanian situation. Though the
Bulgarians are Btrong enough to con
tinue their stiff resistance In Serbia,
where the odds are greatly In favor of
the defending forces, they can no
longer weaken their southern army to
aid Von Falkenhayn and Von Macken
sen. On the other hand, they may
soon find themselves In such a perilous
position lhat the German commanders
may be forced to draw from their own
| forces to save their ally from disaster.
I Krnm a military standpoint the re
| capture of Monutlr Is extremely im
portant. It has already compelled the
Bulgnrs to retire some distance to the

WOMAN BREAKS
FLYING RECORD
Completes Last Lap of Record-
Making Trip From Chicago
to New York
New York, Nov. 20. The record
breaking aeroplane flight of Ruth
Law, begun yesterday In Chicago,
terminated at. Governor's Island here
at- 9:40 a. m. to-day after stops at
Hornell and Blnghamton, N. Y. The
final 152 miles from Blnghamton to
this city was covered this morning in
2 hours and 20 minutes and the en
tire journey, 83 2 miles in an aeroplane
in the actual llying time of 9 hours
and one minue.
Miss Law was greeted on her ar
rval at Governor's Island by Major
General and Mrs. Leonard Wood, who
congratulated her on her achievement.
She was considerably chilled and was
taken to tho house of one of the offi
cers at the post to recuperate.
She had little to say about her flight
except that she had to fly much lower
than she wanted to, on account of the
haze. It was the cause of remarks
among those who examined her ma
chine here that its structure was such
as to expose her to the air more than
in the case of most modern aeroplanes.
The pilot's seat is placed on a pro
jection in front of the machine so
that the nviatrix gets the fnll force of
the wind.
The machine used by Victor Carl
strom, previous holder of the Amer
ican non-stop record established in a
flight November 2 from Chicago to
New York, was of the Fusillage type,
in the cockpit; of which ho was snugly
protected from the wind. In the
present flight Miss Law bettered Carl
strom's record by about 100 miles,
mnking the 590 miles In an airline
from Chicago to Hornell, N. Y., where
she arrived yesterday without stop
ping.

PAST MONASTIR

out from the city and prisone?S' and
war material captured.
Press dispatches depict Monastlr as
virtually destroyed by fire and ex
plosions and deserted by tho popula
tion and describe the rfetreat of its
defenders aa a rout. Berlin, however
declares the new positions north of
Monastir were occupied without en
tente pressure being felt and adds that
fresh German forces have arrived on
the scene. It asserts further that
Serbian attempts to advance along the
Moglenlca front east of the Monastir
region were defeated.
The position of Rumania appears
increasingly precarious. General Von
Falkenhayn's armies are continuing to
force their way southward from the
Transylvanlan border and Petrograd
admits a further retirement of the
Rumanians in Jiul Valley region. Near
Dragoslavele. northeast of Campulung,
the Rumanian troops appear to be
offering their most stubborn resistance
but Berlin declares the Rumanian at
tacks have been delivered by poorly
organized forces and have been fruit
less.
Tho greatest peril to the Rumanians
according to tho view of entente mill-*
tary critics, lies in the reported cut
ting of the railway from the Danube
to Craiova, threatening the flank of
the Rumanian army south of Vulcan
pass and making the position of the
Russian army at Orsova hazardous.
Tho bad weather along the front in
Franco apparently has brought opera
tions to a virtual standstill. Neither
London or Paris reports any move of
importance mado during last night.
Berlin, however, mentioned British
failures to gain ground yesterday In
attempts north of the Ancre near
Miraumont and between Scrre and
Beaucourt, and the repulse of a
French attack on St. Pierre Vaast
wood. It also declares the British
were driven from the western por
tion of Grandcourt south of the Ancre.
The situation in Greece apparently
has reached another of its critical
stages. Following tho demand by the
entente for tho turning over of
virtually all the arms, urtillery and
munitions of the Greek army, It is
reported to-day in a news agency dis
patch from Athens that the ministers
of the central powers have been
ordered by tho entente authorities to
leave Greece by Wednesday.
Dr. Sorge Is Head of
Industrial Department in
New German War Bnreau
Berlin, Nov. 19, via London, Nov. 20.
—Dr. Kurt Sorge, the new technical
chief of staff to General Groener In
the department of munitions, who will
head the Industrial department in the
new war bureau of the war ministry
and upon whom will fall a large share
of the responsibility for the creation,
maintenance and efficiency of the pro
posed "home army" that Is to comple
ment and sustain the armies In the
field, has arrived at Berlin to take up
his new task. Soon after his arrival
Dr. Sorge received an Associated Press
correspondent, to whom lie expressed
confidence that the new organization
and general scheme of the home army
will prove efficacious and successful.
Dr. Sorge showed a keen appre
ciation of the interest displayed In
America concerning all economic and
industrial steps which the warring na
tions will take.
to this line would be the Babuna Pass,
north of Prllep, If the Serbs were
ablo to sweep the enemy from that
part of the Vardar Valley south of the
eastern entrance of Babuna, they
would then have the advantage of the
Salonikl-Belgrade railroad and could
/smash forward to their greatest vic
tories.
The capture of Monastir Is the hard
est blow yet struck to Bulgarian hopes
since she emere<> the war on the side
of the central powers. The advance
of General Sarrall's forces through the
mountain barriers across the Serbian
border lias been one of the most bril
liantly conducted operations of the
war.
Monastir, a town of about 45,000
population in peace timeft, was the
capital of the villayet of Monastir un
der Trukisli rule before the first Balkan
war. Serbia took it as part of her
share of the spoils after the secondv
Balkan conflict. It was held out as a
bait to Czar Ferdinand by the Kaiser
when Prussian diplomats were seeking
to bring Bulgaria into the war and the
campaign In Serbia at
the request of Czar Ferdinand until
the city was occupiod.
"PRY CHICAGO" FIGHT OX
Chicago, 111., Nov. 20.—A "dry Chi

with an address by W. J. Bryan before
a meeting of the dry federation. Mr.
Brian was asked as to a recurrence of
the report that he was to move his
home to Ashevlllo, N, C. "I don't
mind denying it again," said Mr. Bryan.
"Why should anyone leave a nice dry
