WONDERED WHY.

Many pale sickly persons wonder fol
years why they have to suffer SO, and
eventually discover that the drug-caf-
feine-in coffee is the main cause of
the trouble.

and drank it every day. / never had
much flesh and often wondered why

Kept Umbrella Thirty Years.

A faithful old umbrella which has
shielded the family of DR.. James A.
Mullican of Greenwood avenue from
the storms of 80 years, was stolen on
Sunday. During the rain on that day
the physician lent the umbrella to E.
A. Seek, and while the latter was in a
store some one stole it.

Neil was absorbed in thought for
some time as he drove the canoe
| through the tall rice grass that grew
thick along the edge of the shore.
| ''How would it be if I landed you

Or you might lie off the point yonder

THAT would be better plan if we
must separate" said Nathaniel, whose
voice betrayed the reluctance with
which he assented to the project He
had guessed shrewdly at Neil's mo-
tive. Us it possible that we may have

asked banteringly
There was no answering humor to
this in Neils eyes.
Il wish we might" he said quietly.

anyway. She has always been like a
little sister to Marion and me and she
has come to believe-something-
We do. hate to leave her"
"Obadiah told me about her
mother" ventured Nathaniel. HE
said that some day Winnsome will be
a queen"
Il knew her mother" replied Neil,
as though he had not heard Ma
thanieps last words. He looked frank
ly into the others race. Il worshipped
her!"
"Oh-h-h!"
From a distance" he hastened

now. Little Winn looks like her
Some day she will be as beautiful"
"Sha is heautifu1 now
But she is a mere child. Why, it
seems only year ago that I was to-
ting her about on my shoulders. And
by George, that was year before
her mother died! She is sixteen

Nathaniel laughed softly.
Tomorrow she will be making love,
Neil, and before you know it she will
be married and have a family of her
own. | tell you she is a woman-and
if you are not a fool you will take her
away with Marion"
With a powerful stroke of his pad
die Neil brought the canoe in to the
shore.
"There!" he whispered, You have
only to cross this point to reach your
boat" He stretched out his long arm

It is being said of an elderly man in
business in Atchison: "He can't stand
punishment as he formerly could"
And there Is punishment to be en-
dured in making living; don't forget
It. Look over your own experience,
and you will detect punishment every
hour of the day. If it isn't at home, it
IS on the street car or on the road.

CHAPTER Vl-Continued.
Horror, not fear, sent an involun-
tary shiyer through Nathaniel

Horror, not fear, sent an involun-
tary shiyer through Nathaniel.
They can't reach u.s." assured Neil.
There was the glitter of triumph in
his eyes. This was to have been my
way of escape after | killed Strang.
A quarter of a mile deeper in the
swamp | have a canoe" He picked
up the gun and box and began forcing
his way through the dense alder along
the edge Of the stream. I'D like to
stay and murder those dogs" he called
back, "but it wouldn't be policy"
For time the crashing Of their
bodies through the dense growth of
the swamp drowned all other sound.
Five minutes later Neil stopped Oil the
edge of a wide bog. The hounds were
giving fierce tongue in the forest on
their left and their nearness sent
Nathaniel's hand to his pistol Neil
saw the movement and laughed.
Don't like the sound, eh?" he said.
I'VE get used to it on Beaver island.
They're just about at the place where
they tore little Jim Schroeder to
pieces a few weeks back Schroeder
tried to kill one of the elders for steal
ing his wife while he was away on a
nights fishing trip
He plunged to his knees in the bog.
"They caught him just before he
reached the swamp" he flung back
over his shoulder 1.-TWO minutes
more and he would have been safe"
Nathaniel, sinking to his knees in
the mire, forged up beside him.
Lord" he exclaimed, as a breath
of air brought sudden burst of blood
curdling cries to them. eff they
loosed them on us sooner"
He shivered at the terrible grimace
Neil turned on him.
Had they slipped the leashes when
we escaped, we would have been with
poor Schroeder now, Captain Plum.
BY the way'-he stopped a moment
to wipe the water and mud from his
face" three days after they covered
Schredder's bones with muck out
there, the elder took Schredder's wife!
She was too pretty for a fisherman"
He started on, but halted suddenly
with uplifted hand. No longer could
they hear the baying of the dogs.
They've struck the creek!" said
Neil "Listen!"
After an interval of silence there
came long mournful howl.

what the bowling means. How Croche
and his devils are bowling noW!"
A curse was mingled with Neil's
breath as he forced his way through
the bog. Twenty rods farther on they
came to a slime covered bit of water
| on which was floating a dugout ca
noe. Immense relief replaced the
anxiety in Nathaniel's face as he
! climbed into it. At that moment he
was willing to fight hundred mer
| for Marion's sake, but snakes and bogs
| and broodhounds were entirely outside
his pale Of argument and he exhibited
no hesitation in betraying this fact tt
his companion. For a quarter of {
mile Neil forced the dugout through
water viscid with slime and rotte(
substance before the clearer channe
of the creek was reached. AS the,
progressed the stream constantly be
came deeper and more navigable unit
it finally began to show signs of a cur
rent and little later, under the pow
erful impetus of Neil's paddle, the ca
noe shot from between the dens
shores into the open lake. A mil
