ed existence of an Illicit distillery In the
vicinity of Kugene, is not known, but
these rumors have certainly been rife for
some time aud there hnve been suspi
cions and cuuuter suspicions flying In
alt directions for several days.
A great mantle of secrecy had been
spread over the affnlr from its very
beginning. Two prominent Kilts of this
city have been connected with this vio
lation of old "bone dry". In keeping
with the loyalty to brothers in this order
and in a true sense of frnternlty to nil a
committee of three from its members
were ordered to take up the charges
agtunnt these two culprits and sift this
affair to the very bottom. This com-
mlttea with the aid of I'nitod State,
marshals have shadowed these men fur
weeks. Why they were out late at nights
was investigated. Depots and automobiles
were secretly searched when there was
leant suspicion that they bad any con-
nection with them. Their mall was closely
scrutinized. Whenever a drunken tran
sient was hailed before "Jedge" Bryson
or an epileptic looking nose appeared on
streets in the evening or automobile
drivers seemed to lose temporary con
trol of car or contents of same, it seemed
as if the finger of guilt pointed toward
Co1urg. Their cases were taken under
advisement with leaden Bkys overhead
when following facts leaked out Ira
Calcf, a prominent farmer of Coburg
district, has a roaming bunch of chickens
and for several weeks pnst have been
coming home to roost In an intoxicated
condition. It was scandal of neighbor
hood, so a meeting was called and gov
ernment agents were sent for. The habits
of these chickens were closely studied,
Experts on chickens were called in. Doc
Ilesse, J. Ij. Page, Lee Travis, Geo. Hall,
Hill nranstetter, J. A. McLean aud
others offered their services. The
chickens were finally followed and it was
estnhli.hed that they were feeding and
frollicking sear a shed in an adjoining
field belonging to Frank Armitnge. Sus
pense now became awful. Was it malt
from a diatillery that was reddening the
comb of this beautiful loyal rooster of
Calef's and dissipating this most mother
ly flocks of pullets?
The mystery was growing deeper.
Strictest secrecy was now maintained,
rullets now refused to scratch and seem
ed perfectly giddy eggs began to drop,
to small amounts. The proud bass of the
flick irritable and rough and during eve
ning was boisterous. Ills fumous clarion
the farmer's morning call was not
heard until about 0 o'clock in morning,
five hours late. Good ladies of the neigh
borhood felt they were scandalised. Gos
sip was breaking all speed records. Ex
pert opinion and sdvice of needed.
Thought of expense was thrown to winds
and Jake Jacobs, a famous beverage art
ist was sent for. He brought with him his
ardent friend and adviser, Lump llarri
ken. The light now began to shine. The
mystery was as vapor aphis were work
iug on the growing wheat on this farm
of Armltage's and they were extracting
so much natural alcohol from the newly
growing heads of grain that the aphis
were in a bad state of Inebriety and con
sequently when these marauding chick
ens took their daily toll of these bugs
they were in turn completely lntotxicat-
ed. Armltage and Oab-f claim they were
the only chickens to their knowledge
thst were ever stewed In that neighbor
hood. They will make their defense at
Klks big patriotic show at the armory.

"False Sociology, Based on
Materialistic Unbelief" Con

Hot Springs, Ark!, May 21. Haptists
of the south were today on record ns
opposing the "false sociology, based on
materialistic unbelief," which they claim
has found its way Into American univer
sities which "reek with German kultur."
A resolution, admittedly aimed at a
Chicago university, condemning this
phase of education, precipitated a bitter
fight and was passed at the final session
late yesterday.
Condemnation of the widespread "di

other resolution, which admonished Bap

Judging from the countless prepara
tions and treatments which are con
tinually being advertised for the pur
pose of making; thin people fleshy, de
veloping arms, neck and bust, and re
placing ugly hollows and angles by
the soft curved lines of health and
beauty, there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel
their excessive thinners.
Thinness and weakness are usually
due to starved nerves. Our bodice
need more phosphate than la contain

there Is nothing that will supply this
deficiency so well as the arganlc phos
phate known among druggists as blt

dor a guarantee of satisfaction or

directly and by supplying the body
cells with the necessary phosphoric
food elements, bltro-phosphate quick
ly produces a welcome transformation
In the appearance; the Increase In
weight frequently being astonishing.
This Increase in weight also carries
with It a general Improvement In the
health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and
lack of energy which nearly always
accompany excessive thlnneaa, soon
disappear, dull eyes become bright, and
pale cheeks glow with the bloom of
perfect health.
CAUTION: Although bltro - phos

weakness it should not, owing to Its
remarkable flesh-growing properties,
