CAPTl'IlK OF JAI'AXKSK MN'KIt. 1JY KAIPKK 'WOW." Captain Cameron, in his story of j life on the German raider "Wolf," tells of the capture of a hie Jap liner: At 3:07 p. m. the "Wolf" hroke out the Imperial Navy flag and sig nalled for the "Hitachi Maru" to stop and not to use her wireless; also dropped a shot across the steam er's bow. When the "Hitachi" failed to stop, the "Wolf fired another shot closer to her how. The Jap concluded to run for it, and started in to work his wireless; also swung his ship in such a posi tion as to bring his gun for subma rine defense, 4:7 quick fire, into ac tion. Meantime the "Wolf" had opened fire on her in dead earnest One 6-inch shell from the after-gun struck the "Hitachi" and exploded just under her gun where the gun crew was working, killing six Japs, and blowing the balance Into the water. I saw one Jap in particular hoisted high Into the air above the smoke of the explosion, and he was spinning around like a plnwheel Another shot from the after-gun put the gun on the "Hitachi" out of com mission altogether, and killed an other man. In the meantime, from 1 forward, the "Wolf" had succeeded I in putting a 4.5 shell thru the wire- ; less room, where the operator was I working; this shell came thru one side of the room, passing between the operator and his "set," cutting one of his aerial leads in two, and passed out thru the opposite side of the room, decapitating a man stand ing outside. This shell eventually hit a ventilator shaft, ripped It to pieces and knocked a man down In the engine room so hard that he af terwards died of Internal 'injuries. There were several more hits, one on the water line in No. 4 hatch, and two more In the stern and one in the wheel-house on the bridge. About this time the flying machine came along and tried to drop a bomb on deck forward, but missed, the bomb exploding when It hit the water just ahead. By this time the Japanese captain decided that he did not have a chance and stopped his vessel, while the "Wolf" sent the prize crew on hoard. In the meantime the passen gers and crew had managed to get clear In the life-boats, which were picked up and the people taken on board the "Wolf." There were some neventy odd paA'ngers, first and second claim, among them six women and one lit'le !la':k girl. They Vere a sorry looking sight as they climbed on board the "Wolf." Many of them were only half dressed, being Just awakened from their afternoon nap by cannonading. Captain Cameron In the October Sunset.

The Red Cross Salvage Depot has been a success from the beginning. The people of Ashland have co-operated most loyally with the women who have striven to make this branch of Red Cross work a permanent fea ture, and gifts have poured In from all quarters ranging from Jlmcracks for ha'penny to fur robes, Shetlavl ponies and Drunionas worth up Into the hundreds of dollars. The ener getic workers have lieen divided in to depiirliu-nts and are carrying out the enterprise In a businesslike man ner which shows the 'seriousness of Intent with which they ngtird this branch of service. In the two months that the Salvage Depot has ben In existence the promoters have given the Red CroRs $2:.0, and have of fered another $100. The Depot maintains a millinery department which started out with one trimmer, hut Is at the present time keeping four busy. The Immense stock of TAX KM TO UK IXHtKAKKD OX JtlCH OF XKW YORK.

How Is Your "Culebra Cut"? i The Panama Canal is a clear passageway as far as the Culebra Cut.. But Gold Hill has a way of slipping into the cut. And until drciltics can clear the channel, the industrial schedule of the world is out of jrcar. How about your own canal ? The intestinal car.al is a clear passageway as far as the larirc intestine. There, if you become constipated, waste matter is allowed to stagnate. It becomes unnaturally dry and undergoes abnormal fermentation and putrefaction. Germ activity is increased. Your whole system is out of cear. Result, the production of irritating and poisonous substances, whic h arc absorbed into your blood and carried all over your body, liable to pro duce disease anywhere. - The longer such stagnation is allowed to exist, the harder it is to clean out the canal r of human disease originates in the "Culebra Cut." If engineers tried to blast out the slide from Culebra Cut they would have more slides to cope with. If you try to blast out accumulated waste from ymr Culebra Cut with pills, salts or purges, you will increase your constipation and next time you will have to take stronger medicine in a larger dose. You can't dredge your canal. You can clean it out with Nujol. Nujol softens the mass, and supplies the intestinal canal with sufficient moisture to replace deficient mucus. It causes the obstructive waste matter to pass gently out of your system at a regular hour, absorbing and removing the poisons as it goes Nujol regularity keeps the traffic of your mind and body operating on schedule. You admire the Panama Canal system. Why not .safeguard your own? Your druggist has NujoL Warning: NUJOL is sold only in scaled bottles bcarine the Nujol Trade Mark Insist on Nujol.
