The Stomach is the Man.

A weak stomach weakens the man,
because it cannot transform the food he
eats into nourishments. Health and
strength cannot be restored to any sick
man or weak woman without first re-
storing health and strength to the stom-
ach. z weak stomach cannot digest
enough food to feed the tissues and re
viye the tired and run down limbs and
organs of the body. Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure digests what you eat, cleanses and
strengthens the glands and membranes
of the stomach, and cures indigestion,
dyspepsia and all stomach troubles.

TIE Man Behind the Gun.

Professional military and naval men
are wont to shrug their shoulders in
the presence of the civilian who be-
longs to amateur organizations. There
is true story of young officer in the
navy who met knowledge in lands
man when he least expected it.
When his ship was in a harbor on
States, an amateur naval brigade came
on board for a little practical instrue-
ton. The young lieutenant was de
tailed TO give the landsmen their les
son in gun-maneuver
He showed them all the different
types of guns, and explained their
mechanism. Once, however, his knowl-
edge failed him. One of the guns was
a new model. and something about the
breech mechanism was novel and per-
picking
This, gentlemen, is a new attach
ment for-for---''
One of the naval brigade spoke up:
Excuse me, sir. Its for range
finding" Then he went on to explain,
but after few words stopped and re-
tired. The officer looked at him cold
ly.
How do you know what you're
talking about? This device wasn't put
on any ship until three weeks ago.
Il know, sir; but. excuse me, II

A1xara Keen Faith.

Many woman who would not think
of lightly breaking a promise made to
a grown-up person is utterly careless
about keeping her word with her chill
dren. She promises whatever is con-
yenient at the moment, and apparent
ly thinks that the breaking or keep
ing of those promises is 4 matter in
which she can please herself, and that
her children have no right TO consider
themselves aggrieyed if she does not
do so.
A mother who acts thus does her
child grieyous harm. She forgets that
the sense of justice is strong in quite
little child, and that it is natural and
reasonable that he should expect his
parents to be as good as their word
and to fulfill their promises even az
the cost of convenience. Promises
should not be lightly broken. and the
parent who is guilty of this soon loses
his childrens confidence, which is one
of the sweetest things which our little
ones can give us.
When boys and girls learn to doubt
their parents truthfulness they soon
look around for someone else whom
they can trust, and on that person they
shower their affection and hestow their
confidence.

Reautr hr Housework.

A writer whose useful mission is to
tell women how they can make the
most of themselves physically has been
counting up the development exercises
that one does, or might, take while
busy with her homework. For ex-
ample, she enlarges her chest and
arms by using a carpet-sweeper.
strengthens her back and broadens her
shoulders by making beds, and i'm
proves the shape of her wrists and
hands by kneading dough.
She might round her hips and per-
feet her waist line by using her feet
instead of her hands as opportunity
offers, as when shutting the oven door.
Ironing tends 10 make her arms round
and firm; but that end would be more
surely attained if occasionally, while
she waited for the iron to cool. she
would straighten her back and hold
the iron at arms length. using it as a
dumb-bell. A proper carriage of the
body is desirable, anyway, and few
kinds of work really necessitate pos
lures that invite cramped lungs and
rounded shoulders.
The hardest work that which
makes one breathe heavily" brings it's
special benefit, provided one breathes
deeply and breathes pure air. But to
supplement all such physical means of
grace, says our adviser, woman
should rest, absolutely rest, for fifteen
minutes a day, loosen her garments
and stretch herself at full length.
THAT is the treatment that tends off
wrinkles"
What of the occasions when a wom-
an must WELD broom or bend over a
wash-tub or over a yfrying-pan upon
the kitchen range? These are tolls
that tax her strength and seem to
make little direct return of physical
good, yet they may be carried on I'M
der hygienic conditions.
The comforting fact remains that
most of the work housekeeper does
involves just such exercises as teach

see to this
Helene would not have willingly be-
trayed her former sweetheart, but she
was truthful girl, and, challenged by
Adams about the personality of her tor
mentor. she was bound TO confess that
the young man was Henri Sainton. and
that he was employed by the English gen.
tleman living upstairs
This led Adams 70 Inquire who the
English gentleman might be, and when
he was told that person was Mr.. Ber-
nard Quayle. light dawned upon him.
Mr.. Bernard Quayle's name. and. indeed,
bis former appellation of John Roberts,
were very well known to Mr.. Adams, al
though Mr.. Quayle was not, aware that
his personality was no 'et to the
American surgeon.
When the Louisianian learned who his
fellow ledger in the house was. and that
he employed no less a person than a
former acquaintance of Jean Tenure. he
quickly came to the conclusion that
Quayle had come to the housS for the
purpose of spying upon him or Helene.
or perhaps upon both. The same day he
paid visit TO the police of the district.
The very next morning, when Henri
entered his employers rooms, a quiet
knock was heard on the outer door, and
Mr.. Quayle, gently and guardedly open
ing the door, was roughly pushed into his
own apartment. His amazement chang
ed to abject fright when he saw a portly
gentleman, dressed in a black frock coat
with a tricolor scarf around his waist,
followed by four policemen. invade his
privacy.
AS neither Mr.. Quayie nor the pre-
tended John Roberts answered the COM
missary's questions as readily and gnbly
as that gentleman desired. they were con-
veyed to the cells of the prefecture to
give them time for reflection upon their
misdemeanors.
Mr.. Quayle was a willy rogue. and
knew we'll that nothing could be gained
by revealing his connection with Mr..
Robert Berinquay. BY affording a warn
ing to Adams he would, he thought, en-
danger his chances of those possible fifty
thousand pounds. Whatever happened
to him, he surmised he could not be kept
in prison forever, and once free again,
wealth would be all the sweeter if sea-
soned by revenge,
At the end of FIVE months Mr.. Quayle
and his. friend Henri were tried by one
Of the summary courts then sitting. Both
obtained passes to Toulon, where they
were given employment, not at all to
their liking, as galley slaves on the
