Your Child’s
Diarrhea
Need not be at all dangerous
if treated upon first symp
toms. Mothers for more than
a generation have put an end
to stomach and bowel dis
turbances of their children
by keeping handy a bottle of
nti-Fermenf. It settles the
stomach, soothes the pains,
prevents violent paroxysms,
tends to regulate the bowels
and in the end may avoid
Colitis and more serious trou
bles. It is harmless and non
narcotic but a relief for Dys
enterry, and Diarrhea and
digestive disorders due fo up
set stomach and bowels. It
may be obtained in separate
formulae, for adults 75c or
for children 60c at all drug
stores. Keep it ready for em
ergencies. adv.

GROWN old and tired of adven
turing. Alfred Aloyslus Horn, who
had traded on the rivers of Af
rica before Livingstone and
Stanley, finds refuge in a flop
house at Johannesburg in the
) Transvaal and earns his living
: bv making and peddling wire
I kitchen utensils. One day he
| called at the home of Ethelreda
I Lewis, famous South African
j novelist, and she induced him tc
I write the story of his early life
The famous book "Trader Horn,'
] a best-seller all over the world
' was the result of his writing and
her editing. In his story, which ;
is appearing serially in this
paper for twenty-one issues,
Trader Horn tells of adventures
with savage beasts and wild can
nibal tribes. |
The quaint spelling of Trader i
Horn and his habit ol rambling
away from his story to tell of in
teresting details of his former
life add to the charm of the nar- •
rative. |
Rubber And Ivor}.
The Angola left after two days’
stay with a very large and valuable
cargo. One of the company's steam
boats, the S. 8. B&tenga, arrived as
the S. S, Angola left, just in time to
signal goodluck. A cargo consisting
of gunpowder, guns in cases, Man
chester prints, etc., in bales, al b
hardware, boots, clothing and salt,'
etc., was soon put on board and aft
er three hearty cheers had been giv-j
en by the crew we left Biobey and
were soon anchored off the beach of
one of the chief centers of the West1
Coast trade.
The post was in charge of Mr. Jo'
bay. The stores and buildings were
large, whilst the dwelling portion!'
was a fine, well-verandaded build -[
ing beautifully situated and only
two hundred yards from a fine
sandy beach. The place was fronted.

seventy pounds, were the most dif

much gunpowder and so many cap

had been agieed upon. guns sc
many were roomed .(native lean) or
exchanged foi prints and calicoes
and again a bag of salt would be
exchanged for brass and copper
rods, lead bars, spiral wire plates,
brass neptunes, trade boxen, knives
razors, files, various kinds of bowls
and other articles always kept in
stock.
The art of trading was to get the
natives to exchange cheap articles
for dear ones so that it kept one
bi ;y talking and bartering, some
times for an hour or more before
the prices of tire largest ivories were
settled.' on. flic leaser ones were
easily bought, whilst large strings
of India-rubber changed hands very
quietly. Nai cf - made daggers,
spears, a large. ' iriety of leopard
and monkey skii were a part of
their trading toe,.
Gorilla Food.
These hunters t ten brought in
live animals, rnoti eys, chimpan xes

M06t of the natives who came in to

Scan And Daggers.
Most of them were tail, muscular
fellows used to hardships and dan
gers. All had filed sharpened teeth,
were marked on their faces or
necks with some distinguishing
marks. They were all well armed
with guns, spears and large native
made daggers. Many of them wore
scars on their bodies of old wounds,
wore loin covers of skins and were
as wild and picturesque a lot of sav
ages you could possibly find any
where.
A skin pouch was carried filled
with all kinds of smoked meat, in
cluding dried smoked rats, which
they were very fond of. Ladlike, I
was curious to know what they car
ried for food, and they were not
choicy, everything they said was
bechit, their name for food, mon
keys of various kinds were delica
cies.
They also carried a wild bean
which they chewed in the same
manner as a white man does tobac- j
co. I tried some of it and found it
to be first class, it reddens the lips
and mouth and they claim that a
few of these beans are sufficient

You will never be troubled by dys

in these vines and the gorilla, being
subject to stomach troubles, is
taught by nature to use it. The
chimpanzee is also found in these
glades and is said to breed with the
gorilla, producing a monkey called
a Colocamba. In all my travels I
never saw a Colocamba. although I
offered a good reward for a live or
dead one. So I put this down to the
imagination of some dopey liunter
Native Doctors.
One of the most interesting na
tives of the Gaboon was Old Man
Pipi, brother of Chief Ritiga. He
was a greater hunter and also Chief
Medicine Man, and had some of the
most wonderful cures. There were
many diseases that the natives were
subject to. One was a species of
heart disease and Pipi had a sure
cure for it. If not attended to in a
reasonable time it was fatal. A
pain through the body in the reg
ion of the heart was a sure indica
tion of this terrible malady.
Pipi would press the painful spot
with his finger and watch closely
after the finger was released, once
he felt sure of the location he drew
from a small scabbard made of
"kin an instrument like a flat bam
boo nee-.il*} thi3 he inserted two or
three inches deep between the rib
he had selected, always piercing
from the side, right or left as the
case might be. The operation was
so skillfully conducted that the pa
,ienf showed tittle or no sig4> oi
lain, was cured instantaneously to
tay cured.
The Old Man also told me of the
wonderful medicine men I should
meet later on when I went trading
on the Ogowe river The Indies he
aid were wonderful doctors; this I
found to be true. Natives who had
leprosy went there to be cured. I
mew ofte Gaboon chief who was
afflicted with this disease. I met
him two or three years later in the

ing published throughout the country in which
nationally advertised tires are compared with a
“mail order” tire. . . . We have been asked ii
the “mail order” tire referred to is our RIVERSIDE.
The reason for this is obvious. Ward’s is the oldest
mail order house in America. So, when anyone.says
“mail order,” most people naturally think first of
Montgomery Ward SC Co. No! the tire referred to
is not Ward's Riverside!
RSIDES
Are Equal to or Better Than ANY Tires
Made Regardless of Name or Price!
Montgomery Ward SC Co. is one of the largest distributors of
automobile tires in the world. And for 19 years, Riversides have
been one of the best known tires in the industry. Millions have
been sold. They are made by one of the largest rubber companies
in America. They are built to the most rigid tire specifications
known. They are the finest quality it is possible to produce.
They are backed by the fairest, squarest guarantee ever written,
and they sell for less than other nationally known tires of equal
quality. These sound like extraordinary claims. But they are facts.
And Montgomery Ward SC Co. stands behind every word.
The big tire companies have found it impossible to meet River
side quality at Riverside prices—so most of them now sell what
are known as "second quality” tires at the same prices as we
charge for Riversides, a first-quality tire! Furthermore, a recent
check disclosed that nearly 90% of all the newspaper advertising
of the leading tire companies is being devoted to their <
quality tires. Why? Evidently to confuse the reader. The i
notes that the prices are the same as Riversides, and as
that the quality is the same. But the nationally advertised tires
offered at Riverside prices are not equal to Riversides m quality.
Always compare QUALITIES as well as PRICES. The table at
the left list* some of the best-known first-quality tires that do
compare with Rivepidye^n quality—YOU compare the priced.
