plosives, so 1 suppose 1t will suit you
just as WELL"
The children settled themselves de-
lightedly, and the professor began. He
was charming story-teller, and the
children sat spelbound until he had
finished. The tale made great i'm
preston, and especially on Clifford.
The next day, when he and his playfel-
lows were lying on the grass in the
shade, too lazy to play on account OF
the heat, Cliffoffrd told the story IL
them, and concluded by saying:
Boys, I've got scheme. Let's us
get up 'gunpowder plot for the
Fourth. Only we won't have ours just
like the story, for ours shall go off as
1t ought. We can have it on that va
cant block across the street. Well
dig a cellar and then build sort of q
house on top for the parliament build
ing"
"Yes, and make the house of tin
cans and such things, so 1t will make
a terrible noise when 1t goes off," said
Frank Middlebury.
So it went on and soon the plans
were all laid.
The next day they began operations
and worked desperately, as boys will
for play, all morning. Day after day
the work went on. Both boys and girls
of the neighborhood were wild with
curiosity to know what they were
about, but never a word of informa-
tion could they get from any of the
workers. Even Ruth Gray did not
know what they we're doing until she
accidentally overheard Clifford say
something to Clarence about the gun
powder plot" Then she was all in
terest and wanted to join the conspir-
ators herself. ~.
There weren't any ladies in It,
Clarence replied, scornfully, when she
asked him about 1t.
"Oh, well, that doesn't make any diff
ference and / want to so bad"
'Well, you ask Cliff"
And when she asked Clifford he put
her OF very contemptuously. Then
Ruth began to cry and told him he was
'real mean"
But no amount Of teasing made any
difference. Clifford was obstinate
Ruth was not admitted to the plot.
At last the morning of the Fourth
arrived. The conspirators had agreed
that parliament should be assembled

The Preachers Evidence.

Roland, H., june N.-Diabetes has so long
been looked upon as an incurable form OF
Kidney Disease that sure cure for il must
rank as one of the most valuable medical
discoveries of the age. And every day brings
forth fresh evidence that Dodd's Kidney
Pills will cure Diabetes. Important evidence
in their favor is given by Rev. Thos B. Nor
man, the well l-known Baptist minister here.
Mr.. Norman says:
81 had all the symptoms OF bad case OF
Diabetes and received SO much benefit from
the use Of Dodd's Kidney Pills that cheer
fully recommend them to anyone suffering
from that dread disease. Dodd's Kidney
Pills will cure the worst form of Diabetes"

TWO STEPS.
The Last One Helps the First.

A sick coffee drinker must take two
steps to be rid of his troubles and get
strong and well again.
The first is to cut off coffee abso-
lutely.
That removes the destroying ele-
ment. The next step is to take liquid
food (and that is Postum Food Coffee)
that has in it the elements nature re-
quires to change the blood corpuscles
from pale pink or white to rich red,
and good red blood builds good strong
and healthy cells In place of the
broken down cells destroyed by coffee.
With we'll boiled Postum Food Coffes
to shift to. both these steps are easy
and pleasant The experience of a
Georgian proves how important both
are.
From 1872 to the year 1900 my wife
and l had both been afflicted with sicl;
or nervous headache and at times we
suffered untold agony. We were coffee
drinkers and did not know how to get
away from 1t for the nabit- Is hard to
quit
But in 1900 read of a case similar
to ours where Postum Coffee was used
In place of the old coffee and COM
plete cure resulted. SO concluded q
get some and try It.
The result was, after three days use
Of Postum In place OF the coffee
never had symptom Of the old
trouble and in five months had
gained from 146 pounds to 1853 pounds.
MY friends asked me almost daily
what wrought the change. My answer
always Is. leaving CT coffee and drink
ing Postum In its place.
I'VE have many friends who have
been benefited by Postum.

DISCIPLINE Of
PSOLO|ERS
How Mikado's Warriors
Are Trained for
War.
Organization and Methods of
Teaching and Training Adopted
by Fighting Men of
the Orient.

Much has been written OF late on the
organization and the methods of teach
ing and training adopted by the Japa-
nese army, but few writer's have dealt
with all that long and accumulated
training which is the Inheritance of
every japanese officer. By birth all
japanese officers belong to the old fight
ing class OF the Samurai; the proportion
is indeed SO overwhelming that the
word "aIl" is not misleading. And the
Samurai, with the rest of the feudal
system, lasted in Japan right up to the
revolution of 1867; therefore every
Japanese officer of more than 90 actually
began life under the old conditions In
many parts of the country the old state
of things lasted beyond 1867, and in
more still the old training remained even
when the old conditions were altered
And so it happens that every senior Of
hcer in the japanese army or navy was
trained with the training of the Samu-
raj. while the younger men share that !
training by the very blood which they !
inherit. 1t is just this training, lying
as it does at the back of each officer,
and forming III some sort the very stuff
5ut of which each man, and therefore
