BENDER'S CAPTAIN USED
BEACH AS DRV DOCK
| Valdez Prospector: When the
schooner Bender Bros, broke her
tail shaft In Queen. Charlotte sound
while on her way to Koskokwim a
few weeks ago, Captain Louis Kna
flich, the master, hoisted the ves
sel's canvas, and sailed fifteen
miles to a cove, where he van the
vessel on the beach at high tide.
When the tide went out tho schoon
er was lef high and dry. Captain
Knaflich and Engineer G. A. Lister
removed the remnants of the brok
en tail shaft and installed a new
one. Then they fitted on the pro
peller and when the tide came in
rau the vessel back into deep water
without the least difficulty.
In no time the Bender Bros, was
churning her way northward for the
Alaskan peninsula and the Kuskok
wim river district. Ordinarily, if
a vessel breaks her tall shaft, the
master gets her back to port for
drydocklng as quickly as possible,
thereby piling up a lot of expense.
Kuaflich, however, Is one of the
most resourceful navigators of nor
thern waters, and be utilizes the
tide and the beach for drjdocking
purposes.

Neuralgia.
Severe neuralgia can be cured by In
jecting alcohol Into the nerves, but the
cost Is terrible, for the price Is the
death of the nerve, with paralysis as
the result Such, In brief. Is the con
clusion which I)r. Williams B. Cad
walader reports to the Journal of the
American Medical association after ex
periments made ut the laboratory of
neuropathology of the University of
Pennsylvania. The alcohol kills not
only the nerves of sensation, but the
motor nerves as well. In a nerve like
the sciatic this would bo serious. For
the nerve may remain paralyzed for a
year after the Injection of the alcoboL
In trifacial neuralgia, which is caused
by a purely sensory nerve, this action
is of little Importance. The cure is not
!>ernianent, however, but affords free
dom from pain for several months, per
haps as much as a year. The nerves
ret'euerute Just as they do when sev
ered.

Ruben's Old Dad
Whit Busted Him All to Sqtlnsh
By M. QUAD
Copyright, 1915, by tho McCIuro
No^vspaper Syndicate.
I got out at u small railroad station
la Tennessee, to tind a crowd iu front
of a saloon, and as 1 began Inquiring
tho cause of the excitement a young
man of twenty turned and replied":
"Stranger, 1 can tell ye all about it.
Do you want to see the corpse?"
"Is some one dead?"
"Dead as u coon track, and it's my
own dad at that"
"Been a row here?"
"Not a bit of it. Dad jest made a
fule of hisself. lie's iu thar waitin'
fur a cart to take hisself home to be
laid out and buried."
"Never seed nuthin' to ekal it in all
my bo'n days," said a man in the
crowd.
•'I was right yore or 1 wouldn't bev
sniggered to it nohow," added a sec
ond.
"It was Jest this way, stranger,"
continued the son as he picked a sliver
off a pine box and began to whittle at
it with a spring back Jackknife: "Dad
and me comes down yere this mornin"
to buy a mewl. Dad was powerful
frisky all the way down, and he sez
to me, sez he:
" 'Ruben, I kin outwalk, outrun, out
shute, outholler and outllck anything
on top of this yere alrth's surface.'
"I sees dad was purty chucky, and I
sez to him, I sez:
■ " 'Dad, you's top of the heap round
yere, and nobody kin deny it, but doau'
you go and meet up with no Light in
town. We's arter n mewl, we is, and
we doau' want no fussiu' nor nuthin'.'
"And with that dad Jumps fo' feet
high, and cracks his heels together,
and whoops out that he's b'ar traps,
pizen, powder and catamount all boil
ed down into one, and that he's dan
gerous if anybody goes to pick up his
hind foot."
"Yaas. and 1 hears him holler when
he's a mile away." said one of the
crowd.
"Of co'se you did," replied Ruben;
"of co'se. Dad was powerful on hol
lerin'. He'd holler n b'ar out'n a tree
half a mile away. When he got down
yere thur was a feller from Memphis
with a patent liftln' mashecn a-stand
ln' right yere. Thar's the pieces of It
agin this fence, while the feller his
self is ten miles away and still run
nln'."
"But 'twasn't his fault," protested a
man on muleback.
"I ain't say In' as 'twas," placidly
answered Ruben. "I'm sayln' as dad
got mixed up and made a fule of his
self. No sooner had he sot eyes on
the masheen than he cracks his heels
together and crows like a rooster and
sez to me. sez he:
" 'Ruben, I kin puli the hull state of
Tennessee right up by the roots if I
kin git a brace fur my feet"
"Yaas, I heard him say them re
marks." put in one of tho crowd.
"Of co'se he said 'em," continued
Ruben: "of co'se. He spit on his
hands, grabbed them 'ere handles and
when he straightened up I Jest felt tho
ground tremblln' all around."
"So'd I!" called seven or eight voices
in chorus.
"Dad had one side of the hull coun
try lifted up two foot high when there
was a rip and a smash, them bandies
tore out. the masheen flew to pieces
and the airth sunk back with a chug
which made us dizzy."
"Then your father hod broken a
blood vessel or something of the sort?"
I queried
"Skeersly, stranger, skeersly. Dad
wasn't no man to stop at one blood
vessel. lie jest busted hisself all to
pieces and was a goner afore wo
could reach him. I might say he sort
of run together and caked. He was
six foot high when he grabbed them
'ere handles, and now you can't make
him over four foot eight as he lays in
thar on a board Jest pulled his knees
up and his shoulders down, and I reck
on his pants would hold his gal
luses up if thar was any buttons on
'em. The man who owned tho ma
shecn wasn't to blame—of co'so ho
wasn't—but when he seed the calam
ity he started fur Knoxvllle on tho
jump, and he was lumpln' when he
turned tho co'ner of the hill up thar.
Dad's in yore, stranger. Com© and
take a look. Mighty good man he was."
"And you are waiting to take tbe
body home?" I queried as a wagon
drove up to the shed.
"That's it, stranger."
"It will be a sad sight for your moth
er to see the body come home."
"Toler'bly sad, toler*bly sad," replied
the young man, "though she's been ex
pectin' it for the last ten y'ara. I
know about what she'll Bay. As tho
wagon drives up and she «ees me she'll
stand In the door and call out:
" 'Has It happened this time, Rube?'
" 'Yep, maw.'
" 'Smashed up or dead?'
" 'Dead as a dead rabbit!'
" ITackle.an elephants did he?'
'"Wurs'n that, maw?
"'A bull circus?'
"'And wuss than that He tried to
lift the hull alrth on one of them ma
sheens.' .
" 'Shoo! Shoo! And It busted him?"
. " 'All to smash!'
•"Doctor look at him?
•' 'Two of 'em. and both agreed that
his prancitf days"was over.'
" "Waal. I knowed they'd be If he
kept whoopin' it up, an" mebbe he's
better ofT. At least we'll allow that
he is, and you enm In and cut some
wood and feed the haws and we'll git
an early start to bury him in the

A MERCILESS
JUDGE
One Who Shows NTo Favor.
A merciless judge Is Father Time.
Before him the weak and the want
ing go to the wall. Only the truth
can stand. For years the following
statement has withstood this stern
est of all tests.
John Carpenter, 501 N. Stanton
St., El Paso, Texas, says: "I had
pains in my back, especially when
I arose from a sitting position or
made a sudden move. The kidney se
cretions were profuso at times and
tbcn again scanty and contained a
brick-dust sediment. During cold
weather, they were too frequent in
passage. Doan's Kidney Pills entire
ly relieved me of the trouble."
(Statement given February 4,
1907).
LASTING RESULTS
On Juno 10, 1915, Mr. Carpen
ter said: "I haven't been troubled
by my kidneys in soma time and
feel that Doan's Kidney Pills have
brought about this healthy condi
tion of my kidneys."
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—
eet Doan's Kidney Pills—the same
that Mr. Carpenter has twice pub
licly recommended. Foster-Milburn
