This procedure is quite com-| mon in the oil fields elsewhere but! the necessity has never crepred up in the Wyoming fields up to the pres-| ent. The pipelines of the Standard Oil company and other big concerns that} ship oil require that the oil be warm- ed when it is taken out of the tanks by their lines. In other states the oil often carries a lot of water in suspension in it unless it is heated and the pipeline companies are there- fore buying a lot of water and pay- ing oil prices for it. When the oil is heated the water settles to the bottom of the tank. The lack of two-inch pipe to make the coils out of is becoming serious | and may shut down the whole field} this winter. Thermopolis is becoming hard hit thru the metal scarcity in a num-} ber of ways, no telephones can be) placed in the town and no orders for new telephones are accepted by) the telephone company unless there} is a wire directly run to the prop-| erty where telephone is wanted. | A well recently brot in on the east-| ern end of the Warm Springs field) showed that the oil is getting thicker as the drillers go to the eastward) and this last hole produced a heay-| ier seang than any other well in the} field.

It was a splendid exposition, in- deed, of the unsurpassed resources of this great county—resources so rich land so diversified that capital unhes- \itatingly pouring its abundance here in investments that these resources may be developed- to their highest state of productivity. Great tho the prosperity in this favored land now may be, Fremont county has barely seatched the sur- face of its possibilities. ’Tis like an Aladdin's lamp, and but requires the magic touch of capital to make the wish of the investor come true. County Agriculturalist Hays of Natrona county was one of the judges of the fair. fusing much glycerine this fall and are improving production every- where.

CRUELTY ALLEGED IN MAINTENANCE OF ACTION Alleging cruelty to herself and children and fraud in effecting a private settlement, Mrs. Henrietta M. Fisher has instituted action for sep- arate maintainence against her hus- band, Daniel M- Fisher, together with a restraining order affecting his con- duct toward her and the threatened sale of property. The defendant, the complaint says, is worth approximately $20,- 000, and is making arrangements for the disposition of property with in- tention to defeat her own claims. No livorce action is pending between the two, altho it is set forth that they are living apart at the present time. In addition to stipulations regarding maintainance the plaintiff asks re- lief in the matter of attorneys’ fees.

What little { did manage to eat would sour and form gas, which would cramp and pain me until I could hardly stand it. Then my kidneys went back on me, ind my back hurt so bad I couldn't find a comfortable position. They said I had rheumatism or ‘lumbago,’ then my right leg, below the knee, got to hurting me, and at times I couldn’t stand on my feet or get up when down, I was constipated all the time and suffered a great deal with head- ache. Nobody knows how I really did suffer, because I just can’t de- scribe it, and as nothing seemed to do me any good I had become dis- couraged about my condition “I finally sent down and got a bottle of Tanlac, as I had read so much about it, and it was about the best investment I ever made. My ap- petite came bounding back after my first few doses, and by the time my second bottle was gone, my stomach trouble was almost gone, too, I am now eating any and everything 1! want and it don’t hurt me the least bit, and my kidneys and back are greatly improved. At the time I started on Tanlac I had to crutches in order to get about, but I don’t need them now at all, and have thrown them aside. I have gained several pounds in weight, and can just feel myself getting strong. er every day. I have gone back to work already and I never lose an, op- portunity to speak a good word for Tanlac.” Tanlac is sold in Casper by Casper Pharmacy and in Alcove Clad in “womanalls” and carr: her own lunch, Mrs, Westmo Davis, wife of the Governor of V ginia, has been taking a course of in struction ot the United § es B Loading Plant ot Seven Pines, Va. i Many young women are studyir at Eugene, (Ore.).
