Dreams
By A. M. Davies Ogden
Copyright. 1904, by A. NJ. Davies Ogden

The late spring afternoon sunshine
flooded gloriously into the bare, old
studio, lighting the dreamy, sensitive
face of the young man who stood by
the piano pouring out his soul in mel
ody. 1t flung a golden aureole around
the head of the girl who, nearly lost
in a big arm chair, sat absorbed.

notes of Beethovens passionate love
tears as the music swayed her young,
untried nature. And how well Harry
Walters looked when he sang!
Her thoughts, uncontrolled, wandered
back to the day when they had first
met, many months before. Newly ar
rived in Dresden, she and her father
had driven out to Potschapel to inspect
the big china factory; but, at her IA
theirs request for some one to show
them about, the big German in charge
flung up his hands.
"Aber, spik no English" he began
plaintively. Then, at sight Of passer-
by, his face frightened.

the person addressed, turning, came
back with lifted cap.
"Can be Of any service?" he asked
in English. Mr.. Holman looked re-
lieved.
II want somebody to show me
about" he exclaimed, and the young
man smiled
1.-The Herr Direktor and 1 are old
friends" he responded. IF can be Of
any assistance The girls eyes
thanked him.
When they parted 1t was with a low
bow and mutual, If unspoken, wish
that they might meet again, and few
nights later at court ball, seeing the
girl, Walters made haste to be duly
presented in form.
These balls are such jolly little af-
fairs" he laughed. "Given letter Of
Introduction or two and they will IN

with faded spray of forgetmenots,

For moment the girls face showed
hard and cynical in the moonlight.
There was a stir within the house.
The prelude of song came to her.
Then rich tenor voice broke into the
refrain adelaide, Adelaide" A ia
nous tenor was singing and the girls
eyes dimmed. adelaide" A step
sounded behind her. She turned to
see Renshaw, her lace scarf in his
hand. Something in his expression
warned the girl that the crisis which
she had so long been evading could
be postponed no longer Her decision
must be made. He was young, rich,
good looking Why could she not care
for him? Lad she not hoped for this,

lifted her head. Well, he should have

people, a man and woman, dared

Attention
Farmers.

Why remain in the North
and stay in doors six months
in the year consuming what
you raise during the other
six months?
Go south where you can
work out doors every month
In the year, and where you
are producing something the
year round. If you are a
stock raiser you know your
stock are now "eating their
heads off" and, besides, have
to be protected from the RI
gors of winter by expensive
shelter.
Economical stock feeding
requires the combination Of
both flesh forming and fat
forming foods in certain pro.
portions. Alabama and
Florida produce in abundance
the velvet bean and cassava,
the first q flesh producer, and
they are the cheapest and
best fatening materials
known to the world.
More money can be made
and with less labor, in gener-
al farming, fruit and berry
growing and truck garden
ing along our road in the
South than in any other
section of the Union.

desires further information

Mr.. Hoffman awoke to the fact that

was no longer child. Realizing that
this prolonged companionship with an

held out both hands.

hope rosily spans the years. Then,

The windows Of Cliff Towers were
brilliant with lights. Strains of music
foated out to the watchers in the
street. Mrs. Livingston was "at
home" and Bellevue avenue was
crowded with arriving guests and Gu
rous spectators.
The band on the lawn began to play
"Wine, Women and Song" and the
beautiful Miss Hoffman stepped
through the long French windows up
on the terrace.
The simmer Of moonlight on the

Sour Stomach

When the quantity of food taken is
too large or the quality too rich, sour
stomach is likely to follow, and es-
pecially so if the digestion has been
weakened by constipation. Eat slowly
and not too freely of easily digested
food. Masticate the food thoroughly.
Let five hours elapse between meals,
and when you feel fullness and
weight in the region of the stomach
after eating, take Chamberlain's Stom-
ach and Liver Tablets and the sour
stomach may be avoided. For sale by
