A letter received during the holiday
week from M~arcelinvilla, Sask., by Judge
Fl. E. Dorval brought news of the serl-
Gus illness Of his old friend Antonio Mar
celine, one of the first pioneers of the
Olga settlement and a member of the
board of commissioners at the time this
county was first organized. 1t is nearly
twenty years ago since Mr. Marceline
moved away to the Canadian Northwest,
where he has accumulated a fortune and
attained prominence among those on the
western frontier. Many Of Cavalier
county's old timers hope to get word
that In spite OF his having already passed
LIES allotted span Of three cor years
and ten he may bs spared to further
years of usefulness and the continued
Loving regard Of his many old friends.

THE END
A BALLOON FOR AN ENGINE

A RAILROAD on which the motive power
\ is supplied by balloon is certainly
novelty. Such railroad has been con-
structed in Austria under Government SUI
pervision. Its object is to carry passengers
up and down Hochstaufen Mountain at Bad
Reichenhall, watering place in the Aus
TRAN Alps.
The top of this mountain affords splen-
did view; but the climb to the summit is
tedious and uninteresting. Accordingly, it
was decided that the tourists who visit the
place would appreciate the labors of the
captive balloon devised to convey them to
the summit.
The balloon was made to run along a
track built at the side of the roadbed. A
trailer with many wheels clasps this wooden
rail. or track, and the passenger car is fast
ened to the trailer The operator sits in the
car. with cord swinging between him and
the balloon by which he can regulate the sup
ply of gas. Safety devices are at hand in case
of accident.
Before the car starts up the mountain the
balloon is charged with sufficient gas to en-
able it to ascend to the summit, and when
the top is reached and all is ready for the re-
turn journey some of the gas is permitted to
escape, whereupon the car starts down hill.
its speed being checked by the retarding
effect of the gas still left in the balloon.
1t was not until the most rigorous inveSti-
cations had been made and the comparative
safety of this method of journeying demon
strated. that permission was given to build
the railroad. There are many novel safety
devices to prevent accident.
The tank and generator from which the
gas is drawn answer the double purpose OF
supplying power for the railway and furnish.
ing gas for illuminating the town.

only the special kind of dogs luck that attaches

your untimely demise. Having failed however,
l want to tell you. with the utmost sincerity.
that l never had the slightest intention of car

the fair lady who is now ViScounteSS Meden-

P. S.-Devar went steerage to the United

it was all up with you and with him.

he really believe even yet that | should have
married him?"
Il don't care tuppence what he believes"
said Medenham, giving her reassuring hug.
Indeed, have mind to write and ask him
how much he owes in that hotel. Don't you
see my dear, that if it hadn't been for Ma
rigny there was chance that | might have
left you at BRISTOL"
"Never!" cooed Cynthia.
"Well, now l have got you, am begin

bear to hear of that. Sometimes, in Calais,
l awoke screaming, and then l knew had
seen it in my dreams. There, you have dis
arranged my hat! But don't think much
of your budget, anyhow; mine is great
deal more to the point. My father told me
this morning that he is sure he will feel very
lonely now. He never meant, he said, to put
anyone in my dear mothers place; but he
will miss me SO greatly that perhaps Mrs.

She was bound to come into the family one
way or another. When is it to be?"
Cynthia laughed delightedly. Father
looked SO confused when | asked him. Say,
wouldn't it be joke if Simmonds brought
them to Scarland Towers one day, and they
were announced by some solemn footman as
Mr.. and Mrs. Vanrenen'?"
"Cynthia, you know" he teased her.
Il don't know; but am good guesser,"
she said.
And she was.

The Other Side

We have canvassed hundreds of
homes of the educated, the competent,
the leaders in every walk of life. And
we find that oatmeal is the regular diet
in seven out of eight of those homes.
We have inquired of $4,000 physi-
clans and we find that four-fifths serve
oatmeal in their homes. Out of so
leading professors in one university,
48 regularly eat oatmeal.
We find that four-fifths of all college
students come from oatmeal homes.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-09-25

Oats are richer than all other cereals
in proteids, organic phosphorus and
lecithin.
Proteid is the bodybuilding, the
energy giving food. Phosphorus is the
brain food-lecithin the food for the
nerves and nerve centers.
No other food supplies like oatmeal
the needs of growing child.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-09-25
The Meaning

This doesn't mean that some can
afford oats and others cannot. For
Quaker Oats-the finest oatmeal pro-
duced-costs but one-half cent per dish.
1t means that some know, and others
don't know, the food needs of child.
1t means that some know, and Others
don't know, the facts about oatmeal.
Some know, and some don't know,
that the highest authorities give it first
rank among foods. 49, -. .~--

The Homes That Never
Serve Oatmeal

We have made house o-house can
vass of the tenement districts, both of
New York and Chicago.
We have gone to the homes where
are bred the anemic, the incapable, the
undeveloped. Where tuberculosis finds
its ready prey.
We find in those sections that not
one home in twelve serves oats in any
form.

Remedy Saved Aer Child TryitFree

There are literally thousands of women
in this country who gratefully acknowl-
edge that they owe the present good
health of their children to the timely
use of.Dr. Caidwell's Syrup Pepsin.
The crying baby usually is constipated
or suffers from intestinal trouble due to
some error in diet. 1t needs no heroic
measures-just = gentle laxative like
Syrup Pepsin. A small dose of it will
right the baby. 1t is a great laxative
and digestant, pleasant tasting and nom
gripping. No baby or child refuses it.
Many mothers never give their children
anything else. and they have robust
children and no doctors bills. 1t is a
great money saver as we'll as a great
life saver. If space permitted. thousands
of women's addresses could be given
