Smith County Messenger:
Ever hear of your Uncle Cy be-
ing tangled up in a Doodle trans
action? Ever see a neighbor of
Cy's that did not say he was a
square man? Ever see party
state leader for. 25 years that
abused his power less and came
out with more true friends? ?
Your Uncle Cy always stands
for something long enough to be
counted right or wrong, you
know where to find him.

The National Tribune, the or
gan Of the G.. A. R., has the fol-
lowing about Cyrus Leland: In
civil life Comrade Leland seems
to have made success of every
thing he has undertaken also. He
is counted a rich man, even in
Kansas. But it cannot be said
that his riches have ever come
by way of making other men
poor. AS a thorough going bust
ness man, tenatious of purpose,
and exact in dealings, he has
been eminently successful, one
excellent recommendation for a
man who would be governor of a
great state like Kansas. He has
been many times a member of
the state legislature.

Everything taken into the stomach
should be digested fully within certain
time. When you feel that your stamach
is not in good order, that the food you
have eaten is not being digested, take a
good, natural digestant that will do the
work the digestive juices are not doing.
The best remedy known today for all
stomach troubles is kodol, which is guar
anteed to give prompt relief. 1t is a
natural digestant; it digests what you
eat, it is pleasant to take and is sold here

almost too good looking to be respectable, 1 determined that she was
some grande dame who vas so assured of her position that she could
afford to be unconventional. AT first she read her novel, and then she
made some comment on the scenery, and finally we began to discuss
the current politics of the Continent. She talked of all the cities in
Europe, and seemed to know every one worth knowing. But she vol

She needn't have acted at al, for 1 certainly had no suspicious Of her,
and was only too pleased to have so charming a companion.
"The one thing that should have made me suspicious was the
fact that at every station she made some trivial excuse to get me out
Of the compartment. She pretended that her maid was travelling back
of us in one of the second-class carriages, and kept saying she could not
imagine why the woman did not come to look after her, and if the

her standing at my end of the compartment with both hands on the

and showed the case carefully into a corner. Your bag slipped off on

dulness, and her cleverness, she couldn't gain anything by sending me
away, because what she wanted was in the hand bag and every time
she sent me away the hand bag went with me.
CATER the incident Of the dresangcase her manner changed.
Either in my absence she had had time to look through it, or, when I
was examining it for broken bottles, she had seen everything it held.
"Fron that moment she must have been certain that the cigar-case,
in which she knew I carried the diamonds, was in the bag that was
fastened to my body, and from that time n she probably was plotting
how to get it from me.
"Her anxiety became most apparent. She dropped the great lady
manner, and her charming condescension went with it. She ceased
talking, and, when I spoke, answered me irriably, or at random. No
doubt her mind was entirely occupied with her plan. The end Of our
journey was drawing rapidly nearer, and her time for action was being
cut down with the speed of the express train. Even ], unsuspicious as
I was, noticed that something was very wrong with her. I really be-
heve that before we reached Marseiles if I had not, through my own
stupidity, given her the chance she wanted, she might have stuck a
knife in me and rolled me out on the rails. But as it was, I only
thought that the long journey had tired her. I suggested that it was
a very trying trip, and asked her if she would allow me to offer her
some of my cognac.
"she thanked, me and said, No. and then suddenly her eyes light

but instead of a cigar they touched on a thin leather envelope Ny
