ever science can suggest. But it
would be wise for you to set your
house in order"
That afternoon George Werner
looked up and asked Anna, who was
sitting by the cot, to call her uncle.
So Anna brought him in and they
sat by Georges side, and for a mo-
ment there was little silence.
Nov, friends" said George, 1--WE
got little deal to propose to you,
and, of course, you are going to let
me have my way about it - you
wouldn't think of opposing me now.
That's out of the question" He
paused and caught his breath. "Give
me my own time about this. I'll get
somewhere presently. In the first
place, I am George Werner, of Bos-
ton--and nothing else TO boast of. 1
am quite alone in the world, save for
my mother, who is now somewhere in
Italy, I fancy, with my new stepfath-
er. I have some property-property
that my mother will never need. She
is wealthy woman and has married
very wealthy man. There is quite a
lot of this property, all in good shape.
The inventory is with the letters and
other documents in the package yon-
der. You are to take charge of all
| those papers, Anna, wnen-when 1t
is necessary. There is letter there
for my lawyer and another for my
! mother"
Don't" said Anna very softly, and
turned away her head.
George reached out suddenly and
caught her hand.
''Stay here" he said. I'm almost
through, and I'll do the rest of my
talking to Uncle Jim. Now, see here,
Uncle Jim, want to do square deed
before l say quit. I've led a pretty
careless and selfish life, and it does
me good to think that I've got this
chance, Uncle Jim. ! want to marry
Anna here. Listen. l want her to
have all that's mine. l want to make
her comfortable for life, and give her
the power to make others about her
comfortable. To marry her will sim.
plify everything. She's been good tc
me. Nobody ever was quite SO kind
and thoughtful. And you see it's just
a mere form-but necessary one."

girl, you won't oppose me, I'm sure
You've humored me all Throughout

| "How old are you?" she abruptly
asked
"Thirty-four."
"You're young yet"
| He knew what she meant.
"Oh, WELL" he smilingly answered,
i've seen almost everything worth
seeing and I'm pretty tired u it ALL"
She shook her head. She was con-
sidering.
What you want is to live out IN

well, you know. There was girl
come down here from Sacramento.
Pretty far gone, too. She was TIL
daughter of an old friend of Uncle
Jim's. We put up a tent for her out
there yonder by TIL old redwood-an'

ago Il was just fo'teen - an she's
livin' yet-married an a mother. She
sends me a present every Christmas,
an some day she's comm here for a
visit an she's goin' to bring tn kids"
The man in the big chair leaned
back with an air of profound satisfac-
ton.
This is fine," he said, with little
sigh. There's healing tonic in this
breeze and there's soothing music in
your voice. Life seems a rather pleas
ant condition just at this moment"
And then little paroxysm of
coughing seized him and he struggled
for breath.
The girls face was full of pity.
"You say you're all alone"
"Yes," he gasped.
Mother far away?"

That's pretty bad. You may be
thirty-four, but you seem like a boy

Size Of Antarctlca.

1t is a somewhat curious fact, If 1t
is a fact, that the last of the terres-
trial continents to be explored Is the
largest mass of raised land in the
world. The concentration of attention
upon the South Pole since Commander
Peary landed the other end of our
axis makes it highly probable that the
antarctic antipode will soon be dang
ling from some explorers belt. Incl
dentally. the south polar continent will
be opened, If not to the settler, at
least to the mapmaker. We already
know something of its fringes at few
points, and Lieut.. Shackleton pushed
into it south of Mounts Erebus and

WORDS OF WISDOM.

No poetry was ever written in a
dental parlor.
Some people would rather join the
crowd than go to heaven.
All cats remind us of most women |;
they think they can sing.
No, Alonzo, beads of sweat are not
classed as ornaments.
Fear of consequences keeps lot OF
men in the straight and narrow path.
Gossip is due to the fact that the
world contains more takers than
thinkers.
The sick man who is able to swear
at his doctor isn't likely to give the
undertaken a job right away.
Even IL woman does fail to enjoy
an outing she always tries to make
those who remained at home believe
she did.

your own place?-From "Pointed

Younu Men of Today.

The young men Of 1910 are appar'
emily better developed physically than
we're the youngsters of 1864. That fact
is brought out by table comparing
the Yale seniors of 1910 with Yale
and Harvard seniors who we're exam
ined in 1864. The averages show that
the young college man of today Is just
a little bit taller, is considerably
heavier and has better muscular devel-
opment than did the college man OF
the Civil war period. The change Is
naturally attributed to the present love
Of outdoor sports and exercises. 1t
appears that So per cent of the pres
ent senior class at Yale are taking reg
ularly some form Of systematic exer-
cises, either by playing healthful
games or by training in the gymna-
sum. These figures and statements
are all in relation to college students.
but could similar comparisons be made
1t would probably be found that the
boys of today are in better physical
condition than were the boys of half
a century ago.-Portland Press.

less scruples they carries around with

Seems as If there's wimmin in the
world that's trouble garages. Men
will run to some wimmin with wor-
ries faster than q cop gettin' away

Wouldn't you be nice and friendly
with the butcher IL he'd send good
meat three times in succession?
1t takes a nerve for street sweep
er to stop an automobile to ask what
time it is.
Politics and Wall Street is real
chummy.
Why do they rub 1t in on the law
yers for bein' crooks when there's so
many doctors workin' both sides of
the street?
Moo York is full of crooked doctors.

"She's very capable girl" he said.
"There amt anymore so," declared
the old man.
For a time the invalid seemed to
improve little. He was happy In
his new way of living, FOR the benefit
and pleasure Of life in the open
strongly appealed to him.
But nothing pleased him better
than to get out some favorite book
and read it aloud to the girl. He had
to read carefully to avoid hoarseness,
but his voice grew stronger in time,
seemed very strange to him, she loved
the authors he loved-and Robert
Louis Stevenson more especially.
"He was a lunger,' too" George
explained, "and always frail and deli
cate = yet full of hopefulness and
helpfulness. But the darkness fell on
him at last; fell on him at time
when he could have still done much
for the world he loved SO dearly.
Why, what's the matter?"
For the girl had suddenly risen and
gone away sobbing.
George Werner stared after her.
81 must be more CAREFUL" he said.
"But 1t was strange for her to take it
that way"
So the girl and the invalid became
very good friends. She was SO will
ing, so gentle, so thoughtful.
Il don't see how can ever pay you
for all this care" he told her one day.
GAS long as you can read those sto-
ries to me-" the girl responded, 81

account. Trouble is they amt going
to last much longer"
George Werner laughed. He could
laugh now without coughing.
"There are lots of other books" he
answered. 81 have but to wave my
magic pen and To-! they will appear!
Next week we will roll up our sleeves
and tackle Dickens. You will like

And she went away In the abrupt
fashion with which he was beginning
to be familiar.
George Werner had been living In
the open for four months and he was
none the worse for his experience. In
fact he seemed little improved.
Then one day he was much worse.
The change couldn't be explained.
Jose was hurried to Los Angeles with
directions to rush back with doctor.
The doctor came and looked at George
and slowly shook his head.
Speak up" whispered George,
but not too loud. l have faced this

'It fascinates me. l can pay for

this is awfully good of you! But can

She nodded.
"There is only Uncle Jim," she an
swered, "an' he does whatever 1 ask

he can't get around much, an so
know he'll be glad to have you near

'I'll pay we'll for all the bother I
make" said the stranger in the same
eager tone.
"We'll see about that later" said
the girl. "You won't make much

"My name Is Anna
"And mine is George"
The girl arose.
II am going to get you somethin'
to eat," she said. "An' when you go
back to tn city this afternoon Jose
shall go with you. He has business
there an is bright boy. He'll see
about your baggage for you an come
back with you when you're ready.
You must excuse me now, George"
Eyes, Anna"
He laughed suddenly and the breeze
lightly ruffied his hair and the song
of the creek was like lullaby in his
ears.
When the girl came out bearing a
tray he was fast asleep, the smile still
on his white face.
She put the tray down softly on a
little table.
Poor tenderfoot," she murmured
"All alone an with his mother away
in foreign parts. 1t makes me plumt
sorry"
And she seated herself on the ster
and waited for him to awake.
Twenty-four hours later George
Werner was settled in his canvas hab

sides that would roll up and a place
for his books and his clothes. and 9

WHY HESITATE
An Offer that Involves No Risk
For Those Who Accept 1t.

We are so positive our remedy will
completely relieve constipation, no
matter how chronic 1t may be, that
we offer to furnish 1t free or all cost IL
1t fails,
Constipation is caused by weakness
of the nerves and muscles of the large
intestines or descending colon. To
expect cure you must therefore tone
up and strengthen those organs and
restore them to healthier activity,
We want you to try Rexall Order
lies on our guarantees. They are eaten
like candy, and are particularly ideal
for children. They act directly on
the nerves and muscles of the bowels.
They have neutral action on the
other organs or glands. They do not
purge or cause any inconvenience
whatever. They will positively over
come chronic or habitual constipation
and the myriads of associate or de-
pendent chronic ailments. Try Rex-
all Orderlies at our risk. Two sizes,
