Trlumphs of MODERN SURGERY.

Wonderful things are done for the
human body Dy surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished
and put back, or they may be removed
entirely; bones are spliced; pipes take
the place Oh diseased sections of veins;
antiseptic dressings are applied to
wounds, bruises, burns and like injur-
les before Inflammation sets in, which
causes them to heal without matura-
ton and in third the time requir.
ed by the old treatment. Chamber
lain's Pain Balm acts on this same
principle. 1t is an antiseptic and
when applied to such injuries, causes
them to heal very quickly. 1t also
allays the pain and soreness. Keep q
bottle of Pain Balm in your home and
it will save you time and money, not
to mention the inconvenience and
suffering which such Injuries entail.

Iowa when the returns are all in from

lumber of the small counties where
there are no large cities and where

Out of sixteen counties twelve show
loss in population of about 51a per
cent. while four counties of the six
teen show gains of about 10 per cent.
The twelve lost 1921 in population

Swollen Heads.

A young man, inheriting a vast for.
tune, got the mistaken notion that a
great Inheritance makes u great man.
In three years he ran his course and
is now serving as a point to many a
moral tale. Those who were fawnlng
and 1attering a few months ago are
now tlttering and pointing as he passes
by. And, If the young man has any
brains left, he is probably in the most
pitiable state Of humiliation.
1t is an everyday occurrence. The
office boy who does not know how to
take a raise of 90 cents a week is Just
as good an illustration as this very
conspicuous young man. And the
moral of his disgrace Will be missed
entirely If every man, however OBJ
scure, does not take it home to himself.

THE INDIANS GAIT.

IL Gives Him Perfect Balance, with
Great Economy Of Force.
A woodsmsn walks with a rolling
motion, his hips swaying an inch or
o to the stepping side, and his
pace is correspondingly long. This
hip action may be noticed to an exag-
gerated degree in the stride Of q pro
fessional pedestrian, but the latter
walks with a heel and toe step, where
as an Indians or sailors step is more
nearly fiat footed. In the latter case
the center Of gravity is covered by
the whole foot. The poise is as secure
as that Of a ropewalker. The toes
are pointed straight forward or even
n triie inward, so that the inside of
the heel, the outside of the ball of the
foot and the smaller toes all do their
share Of work and assist in balancing.
Walking In the woods in this manner
one is not SO likely either to trip over
projecting roots, stones and other traps
as he would be IL the feet formed
hooks by pointing outward. The ad-
vantage Is obvious in snowshoeing. II

in the act Of stepping the statue would

This gait gives the limbs great con.

ways poised. If a stick cracks under
him 1t is because Of his weight and
not by reason of the impact. He goes
silently on and with great economy
Of force. His steady balance enables

gently as you would lay an egg on the

Il was not often that Ripley read the

but the Sunday edition, with a per
tinncity all It's own, invariably gave

There could be no mistake. The i'd
dress was Audrcy's, the Initials he had
had engraved himself, and the ring had
been their engagement ring.
A ruby heart surrounded by seven
diamonds. 1t had been a fancy Of his
own. The ruby was her birthstone.
The diamonds were the sacred number
OF the a%ncients, seven.
He remembered the last day, the day
when she had broken their engage
ment. They had been In the music
room overlooking the little park on the
square. The lilac hedge was green
with bursting buds, and, though the
ground was brown and wind swept,
crOcus cups rose In dainty rows in all
the bare flower beds and there was a
duttering Of nesting birds in every
bush and tree.
The breakfast lay before him untast-
ed. AS he gazed out at Broadway
from the lace draped window, the pa
per still in his hand. he seemed to see
her again standing tall and slim and
girlish in the deep bay windows that
day.
She was sorry-it was wrong-it was
entirely her fault-but he must have
known she did not love him-not that
way. They had been thrown at each
others head by kindly in%tentioned
relatives. He had been her brothers
college chum. and even before she left
school he had been the one man she
had seen and known intimately. 1t
had been only natural that she should
