FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
How the Boys of an English School
Provide a Victim.


When a crowd of boys in a board
ing school have rtttled on some
mischief by common consent and
have been detected and ordered to
bring forward the ringleader to be
punished, there is often great diff
ference of opinion as to who the
ringleader really is. The boys OF
Winchester college, in England,
have hit upon a scheme for settling
the matter, says master OF the
school, the Rev. G. NJ. A. Hewett.
When the master demands vic
tim as a sacrifice of atonement for
breaking rules, the boys get all TO-
gether, and each puts twopence into
a hat. Then each boys name If
written on slip, and lots are
drawn. The one who is chosen to
be the victim takes the collection IN
the hat and delivers himself over
to the master as the ringIeader.
Then when he has been sufficiently
punished he goes downtown and
consoles himself with ice cream
bought by the common fund.

The Stomach is the Man.

A weak stomach weakens the
man. because it cannot transform
the food he eats into nourish-

not be restored to any sick man
or weak woman without first re-
storing health and strength to the
stomach. a weak stomach cannot
digest enough food to feed the
tissues and revive the tired and
run down limbs and organs of the
body. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure di-
gests what you eat, cleanses and

indigestion. The system Is deprived OF the
