ganization known as the Woman's Relief
Corps, whose aid to the soldier of to-day,
fighting against the world for living, is no
less notable than the heroism of the COS.
One of the most earnest members Of the
corps at Byron, ILL.,, is Mrs. James House
weart, but illness once put stop 70 her
active work. A year or SO ago, when she
was nearing fifty years of age, the time
when women must be most careful OF their
strength, Mrs. Houseweart was taken seri-
ously i'll. The family physician told her
that she had reached critical period of her
life, and must be very careful. His pre-
scriptions and treatment did not benefit her,
and other treatment proved unavaling:
At last DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People were brought to her notice, with in;
disputable evidence that they were helpful
in cases such as hers, and with renewed hope
she tried the remedy. Last March she took
the first box of the pills, which gave much
relief. She was determined to be cured,
and kept on with the medicine, until now
eight boxes have been consumed, and she
feels like new woman.
Mrs. Houseweart said: ri have taken
eight boxes, and have been improving since
took the first dose. I do not believe could
have lived without the pills. They have done
me more good than any physician or any
medicine l have ever tried"
DR.. Willisms' Pink Pills are sold in boxes
(never in loose bulk) at so cents box OF
six boxes for $3.50, and may be had Of all

in diameter, of make I have never

upholsterer's brass-headed tacks, and

smile.
That letter was not written by a
fool, doctor, but 1 must not think of it.

I'll be through SOON"
Hendricks, as he spoke, rose and went
to his desk again. Lampkin smiled in
admiration when he saw his friends
face clear as he plunged into his cor
respondence. Presently, however, he
caught Hendricks glance as it roved alb
sently round the room.
"Come, come" chided the doctor,
you are thinking of that letter and the
bomb again."
Not that exactly" the detective
said; "but all at once it has occurred
to me that haven't given my anony-

Cuban Courtesy.

The ever-present politeness of the
Cuban is a perpetual wonder. An
American lady entered shop on
Obispo street some time ago, and
asked for an article which the mer-
chant did not have in stock. ''If the
sonora will permit me. will beg to
assist her in finding it," said the oblig-
ing shopman. He thereupon closed
and locked his store and accompanied
the stranger to shop after shop, until
she had been supplied. The Cuban then
simply bowed and babe her "Adios!"
TO return again to his place of business,
content in the thought that he had
rendered only the kindly duty which
a true Cuban holds always his due
toward others.-Edward Page CASTOR,

Hendricks drew deep breath, and
handed the letter which had so dis
turbed him to his friend.
Read it," he said.
What the doctor saw was sheet of
crisp blue linen paper, and on it the
following typewriter words:
''Minard Hendricks. Detective, New York
City:
"Astute Sir:
''If you will take the trouble to go to the
Palace Hotel tonight after you receive this,
and will inquire for Mr.. Weldon Caruthers.
you will be told that he is out of town, but
If you will insist on going to his apartments
on the second floor, you will find there his
remains. He has been murdered and the job
has been done SO well that the chief actor
in the game has not the slightest fear of de-
lection, and takes this humble opportunity
of pitting his wits against yours, now so
celebrated. You are great detective, Hen
bricks, and they say you have never failed.
But this, my dear sir, shall be your Water
loo"
Lampkin laid the letter down and
turned to Hendricks, who stood at his
elbow.
"It is plainly an idle joke he said.
81 am astonished at your being dis
turbed over it,"
"Do 1 look disturbed?" asked Hen
bricks, absent-mindedly and turning to
large lounge he threw himself on it.
81 am absolutely worn out for one
thing, and then"
He paused. 1t was plain to the doc
tor that the detectives mental excite
ment had crippled his faculty for put
ting words together.
"Look here" said Lampkin, drawing
chair near his friend and sitting
down. II say, what's the matter with
you, anyway"
Hendricks laughed.
