The WhiteWash was If an enormous tub
which stood right under the window OF
the rear room. Before quitting work they
mixed an extra quantity for next days
use SO that the tub was full almost to
the brim.
After it was discovered Through the
generaD that Blank had BETRAYED the
club, Joe, a trustworthy man, was left
in the stable to attend to callers. About
half past 5 one afternoon he called a
helper and begged him to stay there and
attend to any calls while he went to Du

At the same instant the general saw
the well known hat of his wife appear at
the threshold and a hand push the man
forward.
The heat in the room was so great
that the sash Of the window had been
thrown up from the bottom. The gen

arose hastily and sprang through the
window. just as Mrs. c. entered the
room she heard a splash and saw jets
Of Whitewash rise into the air The next
moment the general arose out of the
WhiteWash tub and stood framed in the
window. He presented a most remarka-
BILE appearance. The whitewash was
clinging to hair and beard and dripping
off his chest, arms and hands, and he
was vainly endeavoring to spit it out ci
his mouth and clear it out of his eyes
AS he clambered into the room there
was roar Of laughter, in which Mrs
c. did not join. AS the general
slowly crawled out of his bath his wife
said in the gentlest tones:
MY dear, you'd better get home as
soon as possible and III have a bath
and fresh clothes prepared for you by

Painting Spells.
Revived by Artificial
Respiration.
DR.. Miles Heart Cure
Cured Wife.

Painting spells are a sure indication of a
weak heart he heart cannot do the work
required of It and stops beating. If it ceases
for more than a minute death ensues. Weak
hearts must have aid from the outside, such
as Or. Miles Heart Cure alone can give. 1t
is a heart tonic. 1t regulates the pulse, en-
riches the blood and improves the circulation.
"For two years my wife was in very poor
health. At FIRST her back troubled her
great deal, then she had shortncss of breath
and Regularly of the periods The pain
in her back grew worse and extended to the
connection Of the spinal cord at the base Of
the brain and from there 70 her heart. She
had two very bad sinking spells, when the
pain IN her heart was most intense and her
breath stopped The second time we had to
resort to artificial respiration TO revive her.
We were advised TO give DR.. Miles Heart
Cure a trial and bought bottle and began
giving it as directed. We found the doses
were too strong, so / gave her half-doses
three times a day, and she began to improve.
After she had taken two bottles the pains
were all gone and she was feeling like new
woman. She continued the Heart Cure in
small doses for several months and is now
enjoying better health than for the past six
ycars."-M. J. THOMSON, Dept County
