walked up and down the sitting room
at intervals with his hands clasped be-
hind his back. and as Mrs. Bowser
took furtive glances at him she saw a
look of longing on his face. He
might be longing to buy a summer hog
or dozen summer chickens, or half a
dozen other things, and she thought it
the Wisest policy to maintain silence.
For wonder, he did not break it him
self. He semeed on the point of do
ing so a dozen times, but finally went
to bed with the mystery unsolved. 1t
remained mystery until he arose in
the morning and put on an old suit of
clothes. Then Mrs. Bowser observed:

Mr. Bowser drew himself up with
freezing dignity and passed on. He
+ couldn't fight with a. tramp, but he de-
ternlined to make Mrs. Bowser pay for
those insults. Forty rods further on he
came to a farmhouse. There was a
lathy young man greasing a wagon in
front of the place, and Mr.. Bowser halt
ed and asked:
do you think I might be able to find
any huckleberries around here?"
"Mebbe it's hayseeds and suckers
you are looking for'?" was the reply,
accompanied by looks of suspicion.

With that Mr.. Bowser made his start
for the country. and an hour later the
suburban trolley line deposited him
exactly what to do first. but after a
little thought he walked up the high
way a piece to roll on the grass. He
hadn't rolled yet when Weary Willie

tell the song of a lark from that of q

Mrs. Bowser had not come along. She
would have been sure to say something

ten minutes he climbed back into the

Prevent

If subject to headache, take
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills when
you feel the first indication of
an attack, and you will find
that they rarely ever fail to
stop further progress.
Pain weakens the nerves, and
the longer you suffer, the more
frequent will be the attacks.
On the contrary, if the
nerves are relieved of this
weakening influence, the at
tacks will be less frequent, and
finally disappear altogether.
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills
contain no opium, cocaine, NOR
phine or choral in any form.
They are absolutely harmless
if taken as directed, and will
have no other effect, except to
drive out the pain.
''Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills are all
