Friendship and a Song or

BY ELIZABETH CHERRY WALTZ.

One night when the air was soft and
sweet, the officers on duty at the Cen
trail police station sat outside on the
pavement There was this and that to
talk about. There were homely
snatches about the wives and the
babies and the deaths and the sickness
and the (30O) patrolmen. There was
the gossip of the Police Court and of
the prisoners within. The saloon
keeper on the corner of the little park
was sitting outside on the brick pave
ment of the way. 1t was quiet and
still One by one the young men from
the morning papers wo took the Late
watch struggled down, tired from
their work, counting every quarter Of
an hour until their release. A young
man on one paper whose wife worked
at his side until midnight looked
dreamily over at the window of their
hotel, impatient to join her, and he
followed her imagined movements be-
hind the screens of dark curtain at her
windows.
Suddenly the patrol wagon dashed
up, a brave show of green lamps, red
wheels and gray matched horses. A
out small yellow man and shook him
on to his feet. His hat fell off, but he
clutched to his breast a banjo, and.
in the other hand he held a guitar.
The officer tersely repeated the charge
against him. He had seen him coming
stealthily out of a house and he be-
lieved that he had stolen the instru-
ments. He was hustled and jostled,
the banjo and guitar jerked from him
as he stood under the electric lights
Of the station-house. He was young
and slim, his eyes were the imploring
eyes of his sorrowful race, but his
mouth was small and red, his lips deli
cate.
Il nevah stole 'Ia,' he said, with a
deprecating air. They're mine"

wife was scrutinizing him. Didn't 1

Has been rudely defined by some eynie as "slops and sweets" And after all there's more truth than poetry in the definition. Ice cream and cake may satisfy the palate, but they are far from satisfying to the stomach, which requires that food be nutritious first and nice afterward. By careless eating women pave the way for stomach Wtrouble,s and its kindred miseries.
 Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov- cry is confidently commended as c cure for diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. By curing diseases which prevent the assimilation of food it enables the body to be built up and strengthened in the only way known to nature by food digested and asSimilated.
 "For twelve long months suffered untold misery" writes Mrs. Molhe Coigate of Ram dolph, Charlotte Co.,, Va. "No tongue could cx- press the pain that endured before com meueed taking Dr. Pierce's medicine I was not able to do anything at all. Could not eat anything except bread and tea-or If did inc top of my head hurt % it seemed M would Xii fire. But now, since using your Golden Med ical Discovery and pavorite Prescriptior : I can eat little of almost anything I want and can do a good days work as well as anvbodV can.
