He Got Them.

Gentlemen" began the fakir as he
arranged numerous bottles on a little
table at downtown street corner and
prepared for business, has anyone in
this crowd got a toothache?"
but no one advanced.
Has anyone an earache or a head
ache?"
Not a man had anything to say.
"Very well, then; but are you
troubled with insomnia? Are you low
spirited, and do you find yourself
thinking of suicide?"
The appeal was like the, other-in
vain. The crowd elbowed each other,
but no one advanced.
Very well, gentlemen; very well.
Now, is there anyone here who in
dulges in. intoXicants and wishes to
conceal the fact from the women folk ?
If so, guarantee that one drop of
this marvellous preparation placed on
the tongue will instantly remove the
odor Of any"
There was a mad rush from all di-
rectlons, and for the next five min
utes he gave change and passed out
the bottles with both hands.

On the Island
~NNNNNNNNNN

81 NIGHT swim for it," suggested
Tucker with the accent of one who
knows the impracticability of what
he suggests.
"You might fly for it," retorted Nan
Carroll, "for all the good it would do.
You should have tied the boat"

only came last night, anu have not yet
had opportunity to become familiar
with the tide here. How was 1 to
know that you had regular Bay of
Fundy tide here?"
''If you knew as much about geogra-
ply as you do about some things,V she
limited darkly, you would know that
this is the Bay Of Fundy tide. 1t
doesn't come in a tidal wave, but IT
rises as high"
He glanced ruefully at the canoe
fast disappearing on the tide, and
scanned the shore to see If 1t offered
any hope. Apparently they were as
thoroughly lost as though they were
on an island in the Pacific instead of
three miles from a summer resort II

possibly be needed.

land and steal boat"
She rose in all her FIVE feet of in
jured dignity. II do not see, Mr..
Tucker" she said coldly, that the sit
uation should permit the levity you
assume. 1t may be all right for you,
but a woman's fair name" Her
sobblng broke forth afresh at the
thought of what might be said

"Do you suppose I thought then that

For want of better occupation he
searched along the shore for clans,
finding few, but deciding after one
taste that it would be better to look
for berries. 1t was too late for berries
apparently, and there was another
pause and reflection. He had just de-
cided that it was as well that Nan
Carroll would not marry him, when
that changeable young woman
pumped herself down upon the moss
beside him.
why don't you talk?" she asked
cheerfully. It's awfully lonesome
around here"
Tucker gasped, but for moment he
did not dare speak. When he found
words it was of casual affairs he spoke,
not of himself nor of their predica-
ment, and presently they were chat
ting as merrily as though there had
been none of the stormy scenes of the
afternoon.
They were still talking when sud
denly they heard footsteps behind
them and they sprang to their feet.
Just behind them was a tall clerical
man in blue overalls and checked cal
leo jumper.

quizzically.

Nan. you see we are Mr.. and Mrs.
Robinson Crusoe, and our boat Is
wrecked-or at least hope it is" she
amended viciously.
II am sorry, Mrs. Crusoe," he said,
falling in with her humor. II am Rev.
Philip Hardman of Boston, summer
ing on this island with my family"
Nan gasped. "Why didn't you think
of looking to see if there was any one
living there?" she demanded Of Dave.
"You told me it was deserted" he
said defensively, "and 1 supposed you
knew. l only came last night" he
added In explanation to the clergyman.

Athletics and CONSUMPTION.

There must be no exercise as exer-
else for the consumption patient. If
you are able to feel like it, amuse
yourself, but don't take exercise to
build your system up. l know. l, too,
have heard those stories about men
given up to die, who began work in
gymnasium, and by violent exercise
entirely recovered their health. You
mustn't believe all the physical culture
people tell you, any more than all the
patent medicine people tell you.
They're both in the miracle business.
When the lung tissue is attacked by
tuberculosis 1t heals, If it heals at
ALL by this f1brous scar-material filling
in the cavity. No new lung tissue is
formed to replace what has been lost,
and this scar material is useless for
breathing. Suppose you had a deep
cut in your hand and you kept work.
ing that hand violently, how long do
you think 1t would take the cut to
heal? When exercise is taken or you
"expand the lungs" you have to work
the lung tissue just as you work your
hand, and If 1t is wounded there will
be much larger proportion Of scar
material useless for breathing when it
does get well.-Everybody's Magazine.

Mrs. Crusoe forgot to tell me about
the tide and the boat fioated away"
Come over and have tea" suggest
ed the clergyman, Hospitality, ''and I
have boat that will take you over to
the hotel"
He strobe off, leading the way, and
Nan and Dave followed. Once or
twice she hummed softly to herself,
and Dave could have sworn it was the
wedding music from ''Lohengrin." At
last, as he was helping her over a rock
which barred her path, she held his
hand In hers as she lightly dropped be-
side him.
Dave" she whispered, didn't he
say he was a clergyman"
Dave nodded. The Rev. Philip
Hardman," he affirmed.
I'VE could fool that gossiping crowd,
pretending we did it on purpose"
More than ever Dave marveled at
the ways of woman, but they were
married before supper, for Dave ex-
planned to the clergyman that he was
afraid she might change her mind
again.-George Winthrop, in San Fran
cisco Call.

Young man! You love your mother
and you take occasion to show your
love for her in ways that she well un-
derstands. But your father, my boy.
You love him, too, in different sort
Of way. But do you honor him? And
40 you show that you do? Deep down,
below the crust, of course you honor
your father. But not until you have a
boy Of your own will you know how
much you hurt your fathers heart
when you fiout his advice or show by
your manner that you think the "old
man" is kind of back number. Just
so certainly as you live there will
come a day when you will remember
your unfilial attitude toward your dad
and be sorry for it. And then it will
be too late. Father may be sleeping
in his grave and you will have a life.
long regret. The keenest remorse you
will ever know will be the memory of
your i'll treatment or lack of respect
for your father. When the thought of
present days shall come to you, you
will remember that you often showed
your mother the affection you felt for
her and denied it to your father, whom
you also loved. Remember, son, that
fathers ways are not your mothers
ways. Father has had to fight the
world for your bread and butter and
the world has taught him to conceal
his feelings. He loves you Just as
much as mother does only he cannot
show 1t. Under his vest he yearns for
your fillal smile. And when you do
anything to be proud of nobody on
earth Is prouder of you than father.
OF course, | know, you think father is
| not In every respect up-to- date, that he
hasn't kept up with the procession and
| that sometimes he is unnecessarily
firm and arbitrary. All that may be
true. But the chances are father
knows more about almost everything
than you do. When you are, say, 80
years old, you will realize tnat fact.
If you live long time in this world,
my boy, you will always be led to say
that the safest and sanest adviser YOU
ever had was your father. Honor the
man who looks like you.

The man without a country" has
figured in romantic story, but it is the
man with two countries who gives the
American State Department much of
its work, especially in conducting
diplomatic relations with such govern
ments as those Of Russia and Turkey.
Nearly all nations claim as citizens, or
subjects, persons born in their terri
tory; nearly all nations also claim for
eign-bOrn children of their own citi-
zens. There is thus an overlapping Of
interests, or a conflict Of laws, which
has given rise to prolonged discussion.
Armenlans, who are subjects of Tur-
key, come here in large numbers and
are naturalized. On going back to Ar
menia they often get into trouble with
the government, and naturally call for
American protection. Before the liber-
alton Of Cuba, the Cubans who had
acquired American citizenship were
peculiarly active in embarrassing
Spanish rule. Great Britain has a law
that if It's naturalized citizens go back
to the country of their origin they are
not entitled to the protection of British
law after two years. Although the
American policy has been somewhat
conflicting, 1t Is now recognized that
the obligation which is due to a natur-
allied citizen who goes to the country
Of his birth from other parts of the
world Is not the same as if he had
gone direct from the United States.
On occasions, however, this govern
ment has stood vigorously for the pol
Icy that there are no degrees in the
binding force Of naturalization. Some
countries are equally resolute in
branding expatriaton as a crime. Many
interesting incidents involving these
policies of nations have lately arisen,
notably the refusal of Russia to recog-
nize American passports when issued
TO Russian Jews naturallzed in the
United States.

BY.LOW, BY.lOW.

Here's the way she sang to me,
By-low, by-low,
AS she held me on her knee,
Long ago, long ago.
Oh, the years between are long,
And their haunting specters throng,
Yet l hear her olden song:
By-low, by-low.
l have wearied on the way
By-low, by-lOw-
And the sunset is but gray,
Well ! know, well know,
Yet, my mother, through the stress
Comes your song, my heart to bless;
Comes your song, like caress-
By-low, by-low.
Hold me, mother, as of old
By-low, by-low-
Let your song of love untold
Ebb and flow, ebb and flow;
Hold me to your loving breast
Sing the songs of songs the best;
By-low, by-low.
