duced this season the reports say that
it has been played to immense audi
ences who have signifed their appro-

and hearty applause. Mr.. Hanford

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most competent
authorities. They have dispelled the
silly notion that one kind of food is
needed for brain, another for muscles.
and still another for bones. A correct
diet will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but it will sustain
every other part. Yet, however good
your food may be, its nutriment is
destroyed by indigestion or dyspepsia.
You must prepare for their appear
ance or prevent their coming by TAX
ing regular doses OF Green's August
Flower. the favorite medicine Of the
healthy millions. A few doses aids
digestion, stimulates the liver to
healthy action, purifies the blood, and
makes you feel buoyant and vigorous.

died out of sight. Away over beyond
the edge of the bluff a dull, smothered,
booming sound smote the wintry air,

caused the earth to tremble. Then a
carbine cracked and sentry yelled,
half stifled; then came distant sound
of cracking. like pistol shots; atrumpe
pealed and sounds of rush and scurry
followed. There was only one explana.

Out on the low bank across the mar

against the sky, two dark, shadowy fig

from the direction Of the old magazine.

trapped and threw him again. Down he
went splash into the chilling waters;
up he scrambled, only to slip and go
down second time; then staggered to
his feet, breathless, almost exhausted
now; tumbled up the opposite bank;
clambered Oh all tours to the crest;
gazed hurriedly about in search Of
friend or foe; peered into the darkness
to the south and southwest, but the
runners had disappeared; then gazed to
the east and sprang to his feet, startled.
Not 20 yards away doomed the black
bulk of the old brick magazine, and,
kissing and suffering, fiery serpent
seemed dancing in front. 1t bounded to
the doorway, now in the rudy light
dimly seen to be open, disappeared
within little cloud of sulphur smoke,
and then the heavens lit up with an
awful glare. He felt himself hurled vic.
lently backward. For one instant he
seemed to see a million stars crisscross-
ing through the skies. His ears were
stunned and deafened by thunderous
roar. The air was filled with flying
bricks and beams and sheets of flame
that scorched and scared and blinded
him. Then something crashed upon his
skull, and he toppled over the hank and
went plunging down to the icy food be-
