Don't Miss Thi5 Story

If you were driven TO desperation
through want, and were prepared to
commit suicide, what would you do
if you were offered a large salary to
do another mans bidding for seven
years?
Would you accept the offer?
Would you undertake the task blind
ly, asking no questions, and be pre-
pared to commit any deed, includ-
ing murder, which he might outline
for you to do?
This is the problem presented to
Paul Jarret, THE Deputy Avenger, "
by the man who snatches him from
a suicides grave. Paul accepts the
commission, and, as you may read
lily imagine, enters upyn a career Of
strange adventure and unusual
deeds, performed without a true
knowledge of the reason therefor.
Numerous complications ensue, and
there is an endless chain of exciting
scenes before Paul finally frees him
self from the unwelcome state Of
affairs into which his rash promise
has plunged him.
The Sentinel began the publ
cation Of THE Deputy Avenger"
Monday evening, Oct. -. The
story, be it known, is novel from
the pen of Hedley Richards, the we'll
known author of adventure. 1t is
pronounced by those who have seen
the script to bear unusual promise.
Exclusive rights to the novel have
been secured by The Milwaukee
Sentinel. 1t will be published in in

ing Monday, October IS.

KEEP PLANTS ALL WINTER
To Do So You Must Have an Even Tcmpers
ature in Your House and That Is Easy
IfYou Havea Coles Hot Blast Stove.

Every winter we hear of some reader
who has lost a highly priced plant be-
cause during a cold snap the fire went
out at night, or the family went away
for day and forgot all about the plants.
This never happens where people use
a Coles Hot Blast Stove because this
famous heater holds fire from Saturday
night until Monday morning. In some
cases it has been known to hold fire
four days and nights without attention,
but it assures the user an even tenn
perature all the time and hat full Of
coal at the cost of cent will keep a
fire over night easily Instead of build
ing new fire in the morning you simply
open the draft and the stove will heat
for an hour or two with the fuel put
in the night before.
This is the stove sold under a posi-
tive guarantee by us, and one of the
features of the iron clad guarantee is
that the stove will save a third in fuel
over any lower draft stove of the same
size with soft coal, slack or Ignite. This
handsome cleanly stove is now being
shown by us and every reader should
see them before finally deciding on what
heater will be bought.
