FOR THIS MOTHER

Mrs. A.. q. Tuson, OF Livermore, Cal,
writes: g" picked up from my door

soon became very much interested.
My little girl of Eve years of age had
been troubled for a long time with
loss Of appetite, extreme nervousness
and undue fatigue. She was all run.
down and in a very delicate condition.
This little book was very compre-
hensively written, and told CT the new
method of extracting the medicinal ele-
'nents Of the Gods liver from the oil,
eliminating the obnoxious oil which is
SO hard for children to take.
"Just the thing said I, for my little
daughter and l Immediately went for
a bottle Of Vinol. 1t helped her won
derfully. She has gained rapidly in
flesh and strength, and she does not
take cold half so easily.
Il am extremely grateful for the
good it has done her, and l hope other
mothers who have weak, delicate or
ailing children viii be benefited by my
experience and just give Vinol a trial"

the PRINCIPAL piece OF mach merry in the
room-a large electric magnet Of great
power. lie had had it installed but
the week before for experimental
work in separating gold from iron ore.
If only he could reach the switch and
turn on the power. His free hand
fumbled among the keys. He sobbed
as he felt his heart swell like a sponge
with accommodating blood. There was
a ring of metal against metal, a fear
full howl from the Chinaman, and
Thornton staggered forward headlong,
released from the giants terrible hold.
After an age of padding about in
the dark, like a spent swimmer under
water, he found the switch board and
flooded the room with light.
Over in one corner was the China
man He was squirming like a spitted
~cockchafer on the broad plate of the
big electric magnet. The machine had
attracted the steel on his shirt of mail,
and now gripped it with titanic power,
holding the murderous giant in a
grasp that left him as helpless to es-
cape as an armless man in his grave.
Thornton picked up a chair and,
seating himself, studied the astonish-
ingly cheerful situation. After a lit
tie while he began to talk. First he
complimented himself upon being a
fool in going about unarmed, then he
told Chew Lung certain facts which
the latter believed were unknown even
to his three-bellied god. Finally he
turned of the light and left the assay
room, followed down the long hill to
his sleeping quarters by the bowls of
the giant.
The events Of the succeeding day
were known only to an enthusiastic
and select party of l%aw-loving miners,
but Howard Thornton's successful
management of the Golden Gulch
claims, and his subsequent marriage
to Her, are matters familiar to the
many friends of the fine young fell
low.

The Shirt

By Don Marx Lemon.

Copyright, BY Daily Story Pub. Col
Twice in the month Of September
Howard Thornton was approached to
betray the interests Of the Golden
Gulch Mining Company.
First. one Solomon Peters ap-
preached the young superintendent
with an offer Of certain valuable col
laterals If the latter would misrepre-
sent tt his employers the value Of the
Golden Gulch holdings. Later, one
Dick Cummings had doubled the col
1aterals.
Thornton's answer was as clean cut
and polished as a dynamite cap, and
the two scoundrels hastily withdrew.
Then n night a fourth party was
added to the dramatis personae. This
fourth party was a Chinaman. He bore
the name of Chew Lung, and stood
nearly seven feet In his huge mining
boots.
No mar knew from where Chew
Lung had come, but there were sew
eral who believed they knew precise
~ where he was going. Only Thornton
had dared openly to express this be-
lief. He had caught the giant heath
en- one night on forbidden ground, and
showing a revolver in his face had
commanded: Right about to HI"
Chew Lung remembered the Incl
dent very well. and patiently yet not
less bloodily he had bided his time for
revenge. That time had now come on
golden wings.
Concealing in his ample blouse the
heavy sack of yellow dust that Peters
ard Cummings had handed over to
him, he returned to his quarters.
As certain as the yellow dragon few

Of his ancestors, he would kill How

be due to fires or to the condensation

cause would appear to be the general
drainage of the ground in cities. In
the hot summer of 1904 country and
town moisture were practically equal,
a result probably due to the excessive
drying of the soil in both city and
