For five week | lived on cold
water, so to speak, writes a man who
suffered terribly from indigestion.
lie could hardly keep anything ON
his stomach. What stayed, wasn't
properly digested and gave him terri
bic pangs.
This is not an uncommon case.
Dyspeptics don't get enough nour-
ishment. They are generally thin
and weak.
They may eat enough, but they
don't digest enough. Much OF what
they eat turns into poison. II this
keeps on there's no telling what dis
ease they may get next.
That's why it is best to take Shaker
Digestive Cordial, as soon as symptoms
Of indigestion appear.
1t cures all the evils which indiges-
ton causes.

Mickey, | don't want to disturb oul
neighborly relations by having tina
boy Of yours arrested, but he's getting
entirely too frisky with that little rifle
of his"
Just like other boys" answered
Mokey There's lot of cranky old
mummies in this world that forget
that they were ever young themselve:
and would like to see all the boy:
herded in the woods or Gagged up like
wild beasts. As long as Bobby STAYS
on my premises with that gun of his
its nobody's business and | won't
have him interfered with. You can
just put that in your pipe and smoke
it.
Very well, sir; you're just like
every other fool father. Think you
have only to tack pair of wings on
your son and he'll be a cherub. One
of the worst little imps in town and
getting worse every day. If you don't
hump yourself, old man, that kid will
have the best of YOU before he's much
older"
Never you mind. Just stay on
your own side of the fence and mind
your own business. You don't know
any more about raising boys than you
do about the money question. I'm
responsible for Bobby and when |
need any of your advice I'll pay for
it,"
Here's something you can pay for
now, Mickey. That tame and ex-
emplary little pet of yours has broken
three of my windows, shot a hole
through Johnny's hat, crippled the
dog, killed two chickens and spoiled a
lot OF weather boarding en- the side OF
the house. His innocent sport will
cost you $40 if ! have to law you to
the Supreme Court of the United
States"
Jump right in. Help yourself.
You can't begin too soon to please me.
| don't think of anything on earth just
now that would please me more than
chance to show you up for one of the
worst old grizzlies ever let loose in Il
decent neighborhood."
They parted with angry mutterings
and an hour later Mickey was patching
the barn roof while Highly was making
out an itemized bill for his lawyer
Then the stiffness was broken by a
screech from Mickey, who clapped hi,
hand to the side Of his head. rolled of
the roof, made richochet shot through
the branches of an apple tree and
came down as though he had fallel
from a church steeple. The lobe o
his left ear was gone and what wa,
left felt like bee hive running full
blast. Bobby had done it with hi.
little rifle. Mickey broke it over the
fence, larruped the boy thirteen times
around the yard with barrel stave,
wrote Il note Of humble apology to
Highly and added that Bobby's open
season for shooting was at an end for
all time. Now the olive branch wave.
