In a drive on dandelions, to eliminate them from tho lawns, parkings and parks of the city, the boys of l'onca City. Including tho Hoy Scouts In Particular, were rnllte,i ,n ,i, plants from tho soil and deliver "lc'n in tne city minding, where they wero welched and Mm hnn wcro paid 1 cent a pound bonus by tho chamber of commerce, under tho direction of which tho cam paign was waged. The official weigher and payer at tho city build ing was Gcorgo K. Hrown, fire chief, Tho importances' which the drive reached Is shown by tho fact that tho boys collected and were paid for a total of 23,033 pounds of dandelions, or something over ll tons. As tho dandelions were weighed tho boys dumped them In tho street "alongside tho city build ing and every evening they wero trucked away to tho city dumping ground on tho Arkansas river, southeast of tho city. Tho total amount or ttio plants thus hauled away was 14 truck loads. Ill this rirlVA over thrnn lliin.1rnrt boys participated. It continued for ono weex and tho boys worked in the evenlncs after scbonl nml nn Saturdays. Something over two hundred checks were paid to the boys, Brown paying by check every amount from 5 cents up. In many instances mis was tlie first money that thn boys had ever earned and tho parents nuido arrangements with the flro chief to get the cnecKs uack, after they had been cashed and passed through the banks. Some of these checks are now framed and will bo handed down from father to son as souvc- nns. Hois Ilcftma In Sell. It has developed, since the drive Is over, that In numerous Instances the parents tried to purchase the checks from their small sons prior to cashing them, but tho boys re fused although tho parents offered many times tho faco value of the paper. Many of tho checks wore for exceedingly small amounts, ranging from 6 cents and 7 cents up "to 13, and In no Instanco was any one check as great In value as a dollar. Many parents protested, while tho dandelion drive wag on, that It was Impossible to keep their boys nt homo or to know tholr exact whereabouts until darkness forced them In, and it was nothing unusual to svo parents parading the street! examining each and every bunch of boys encountored to pick out their own song If possible. The lawns and parKlngs wcro lllerauy covereu at- times with boys, sharp knives in hand and dragging gunnysacks be hind them.

Numerous lads wero paid by check several times dally, each de manding payment whenever he would unload, Many of them took their small wagons to haul In the plants, omo worked their dogs, nnd others engaged their fathers to help them get tho dandelions to th city building. At times there would be almost as many dogs on n lawn ns thero wero boys. In numcroiii Instances tho property owners pnld the boys for digging out thn dande lions In addition to tho chamber of commerce bonus. It Is estimated that altogether tho boys received over S0O for dandelion work. Hail to I.nfnriM Itulrs. "Kids arp pretty smart."

I wan vary badly bloated In tho bowels and could not do any work without lying down and resting ovcry little while. When I went to consult n physician I would have .to stop and rest on tho road. I went to numerous doctors but none of them did mo n particle of good, and neither did various medicines that I took, iiy tno an vlce of friends who had been cured by the Inter-State Doctors, I was in duced to begin treatment with these specialists Just threo weeks ngo. And right thero Is whero n big change camo Into my life. I began to Im prove from the vary first treatment given mo by theso specialists. In fact I only had ono light spell after tho Inter-Stato Doctors took hold of my case, and they sure brought me out or my trouble In a hurry.
