He seems a negligible quantity , —but he’s got ail France excited ■ and may cause the downfall of a - French government. s For this singular p-.T.-.oq '., .‘.’,l ■ el-Krim, leader of the Riffs, who has proclaimed the singular belief - that Morocco and all its mineral i wealth should belong' to the Moroc- ■ cans. And being a man of action— when aroused from his lethargy—as well as a man of theories, he has bee ngetting busy the past four years giving European armies a hot time. Aud-ei-Krim is a different kind of Mohammedan from most of those who have resisted the advances of European colonizers. He’s not an Arab but a Berber. And he’s fair ly well educated, even from the western standpoint. Early in his I career he went to Spain and spe- I cialized in mineralogy. Thus he j learned something about the real I mineral wealth of his native land and got a shrewd conception of why I Europeans buzzed around trying ■ o , locate claims and get their coun ! tries to intervene. Then he went to a Spanish miii i tary school and became a pretty' good artilleryman. He entered the Spanish service and by and by was | in their Moroccan intelligence de- I partment. Twenty odd years ago the great German firm of Manesmann began prospecting in Morocco. Their kais er backed them up and Morocco came near being the cause of a European war. Abd-el-Krim did some work for r THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER hem and when the great war broke out, Abd-el-Krim was still friendly to the Germans and hostile to the French . The latter complained to , his Spanish employers who finally locked him up in a fortress in Me lilla. One night the intrepid Berber leaped out of a window and made his escape, but at the cost of a brok en leg which has crippled him slight ly for life. He got away to his mountain fastnesses, burning with hatred of the Spaniards, and deter mined to drie them back to the sea. He has almost done so. Now he is turning his attention to the French who have a “protec torate” over the rest of Morocco and who “govern” it for the Sultan. Which is why the French are agi tated. They don’t want war anywhere at present. They can’t afford the mon ey and they can't afford the meh.

IT HAS LASTED Americus People Must Believe Such Convincing Testimony As Mrs. Bunch's No one in Americus who suffers backache, headaches, dizziness, rheumatic pains or distressing urin ary ills can afford to ignore this twice-told story of an Americus resident.' It is confirmed testimo ny, telling of lasting benefit from Doan’s Pills—a stimulant to the kidneys. It's evidence that no man or woman in Americus can doubt. Mrs. T. L. Bunch, 1209 McGar rah street, Americus, says: “My kidneys acted irregularly and I felt tired and languid. I had dizzy spells, too. My back was sore and lame and when I stooped I could hardly straighten. Two boxes of 1 oan’s Pills cured me.’’ Four years later, Mrs. Bunch said: “The cure I spoke of in my formyr statement praising Doai?s Pills has been permanent.?’ (GOc, it all Fost-MUl ibnnj Do., 4 PINKSTON , ______________ moulded to fit ffigj the bottom of your foot.
