catch them. The plan Is to have pitcher
plants grow among. the orchids, the
same conditions of heat and moisture
being favorable to both. and as the
pitchers are very attractive to such
insects as reaches and capture and kin
all that visit them, the orchids might
thus be well protected.

Cured by the use of Kodol are received daily.
Their troubles nearly all begin with indiges-
ton or other stomach disorder.
II the food you eat fails to give strength
to your body, 1t is because the juices Sc
creted by the stomach and digestive organs
are inadequate to transform the nutrient prop
critics of the food into blood. That is
indigestion. The system is deprived OF the
amount of nourishment required TO keep Up
the strength, and the result is that one OF
more of the delicate organs gradually grows
weak, and then weaker, until finally it is
diseased. Here a great mistake is made.
That of treating the diseased organ. The
best doctors in the land make this very
mistake. Why should they? It is SO easy
to see that the trouble is not there.

by zero weather, and Mr.. New
bury found his three-miie walk
no pleasure excursion.
The house supplies began to
run low and the butter gave out.
Saturday was rainy, and the
soap box was empty, so the wash
ing had to be done with a small
remnant Of washing powder and
dried in the attic.
Sunday was rainy also, and
seemed interminable, but the
family spirits were good, for now
the end was in sight.
The last day of the last week
in January came, and Mr.. New,
bury returned home at night to a
frugal supper and three smiling
and triumphant individuals.
Well, we've done it, he ex'
claimed gleefully, opening his
pocketbook and displaying roll
of bills.
Here is a whole month S salary
and we don't owe a cent of it.
Tt is worth all it has cost, said
Mrs. Newbury in a tone of con-
viction, though the past week
has been simply dreadful, and l
hope and pray I may never have
to liz another like it.
I'm prou to think we held out,
said Maud.
Twas a jolly lark, said Rob:
But I suspicion that mother is
tired of a Norah less kitchen,
laughed his sister.
She had hardly spoken when
the outside door was opened and
Norah's voice was heard direct
ing someone about her trunk.
Mrs. Newbury gave a sigh, and
said, 1t needed but this to make
my happiness complete.
When Norah had been greeted
and had gone upstairs, she said,
Now why not extend our New
Years resolution or one clause of
it, rather?
For how long?
Oh-forever. Let us make it
a rule of our lives never to get in
debt, but to pay cash for every
single thing we buy at the time
we buy it.
Yes, said her daughter, now
we're safely out of the clutches
Of the octopus, do for PHYS sake
let US keep out.
Ireally think that is the honest
way, said the father. If we can
uot pay for a thing, what right
have we to it? None at all.
So the Newbury's turned over
a new leaf and paid as they went,
and after only brief trial of this
plan they liked it so well that
nothing save dire necessity would
have induced them 10 90 back to
the old, slipshod way. True,
they sometimes miscalculated
and fell short, and had TO practice
self-denial for longer or shorter
periods, but the discipline was
useful and led to a better calcula-
ton and a wiser economy.
