The conductor of a western
freight train saw tramp stealing
a ride in one of the forward cars,
He told q brakeman in the caboose
to go up and put the man off at
the next stop. When the brake
man approached the tramp, the
latter waved a big revolver and
told HIM to keep away. Did you
get rid of him9" the conductor
asked the brakeman, when the
train was under motion again.
Il hadn't the heart" was the re-
ply. "He turned out to be one of
my old school friends" "Ill
take care of him." said the con-
ductor, as he started over the cars
After the train had made another
stop and was going on, the brake
man came into the caboose and
said to the conductor: well, is

Chas. Taylor 6 Co., Druggists,

gas on the stomach or sour stom-

absolutely no effort on his Own
part, is rapidly, but involuntarily
moving toward the White House.
Apparently he has the support of
the masses and it is a certainty
that the newspapers some of
them republican in tendency-are
unit in his support. Although
Speaker Clark is not a candidate
for the presidential nomination,
the papers are determined, it
seems to force upon him that hon
or. Read what the Lincoln, Neb.
Daily Star says:
Speaker Champ Clark has given
due notice to President Taft that
in the campaign pilgrimage which
the latter is preparing to make he
must avoid intemperance or i'll
considered speech. for there is at
least one able, sturdy, conscien-
tous democrat who stands ready
to defend the party from any as
sault The president may see bit to
make. There is something mill
family democratic in Champ
Clark's every uaterance and act.
A genuine Westerner, he is also a
man of the people who has him
self experienced in his own proper
person all the hopes and inspira-
tons of a Westerner, has endured
western hardships and knows
western needs. With single in
PERMISSION of two years, he has
been in congress more than Is
years.
He knows every problem that is
involved in government from A to
lizard. Not a blemish mars his
record and he never lodged a
vote. When he speaks of it in
the undiluated terms of democra-
cy, not simply of the democracy
of the partisan but of the people.
His conduct of the potential Of
fee of the speakership in the last
session commends him. Thous-
ands of democrats have never had
a thought of anyone else than
Champ Clark as the best candinate
the party could name. His def
ant challenge to Taft marks him
as a man capable of successfully
meeting the latter in a presidential
campaign.
The Alton, ILL.,, Daily Times
says editorially:
The democratic party would be
very inwise to experiment with
any candidate whose ability to get
along with his party in congress
is wholly unknown. That was
the foundation of all Cleavand's
troubles-he couldn't get along
with his congress-. Champ Clark
could; he has demonstrated that
fact. While minority leader he
took the fragments of the party
in the house, welded them togeth-
err, united with the insurgents,
and spanked the majority until
Uncle Joe declared in despair:
This is no longer a republican
housel' The fight he made won
the election of 1910 and he was
unanimously chosen speaker. Sue
cess made no change except to
bind the democrats of the house
together under his leadership
more firmly than ever. Some said
be would lose his insurgent allies,
but he lost not one, and today he
stands out as the one great
strong figure that was developed
by eighteen years of hard fighting
fighting his way up in a body
where each man finally finds his
proper place.

IT'S FOOD
That Restores and Makes Health
Possible.

There are stomach specialists a.
well as eye and ear and other special
lists.
One of these told a young lady. OF
New Brunswick, N. j.. to quit medi-
cines and eat Grape-Nuts. She says:
For about IL months I suffered So
verely with gastritis. I was unable
to retain much of anything ON my
stomach, and consequently was COM
PEELED to give up my occupation.
Il took quantities of medicine. and
had an idea i was dieting. but l con-
tinued to suffer. and soon lost Is
pounds in weight. was depressed
in spirits and lost interest in every
thing generally. My mind was SO az
fected that 1t was impossible to be-
come interested in even the lightest
reading matter.
After suffering for months I de-
cided to go to a stomach specialist.
He put me on Grape-Nuts and my
health began to improve Immediately.
1t was the keynote OF a new life.
Il found that had been eating too
much starchy food which did not d.
gest, and that the cereals which / had
tried had been too heavy. I soon
proved that it is not the quantity Of
food that one eats. but the quality.
In a few weeks I was able to 20
back to my old business Of doing cler.
zeal work. / have continued to eat
Grape-Nuts for both the morning and
evening meal. I wake in the morning
with a clear mind and feel rested. I
regained my lost weight in q short
time. I am well and happy again and
owe it to Grape-Nuts." Name given

CHAPTER VII.
A Japanese at LARGE.

What was the girl doing out there
in mid-lake in the company Of her
enemy? Orme had seen her enter the
house of her friends in Evanston: had
hidden her goodnight with the un-
Outstanding that she was to make no
further move in the game before the
coming morning. She must have left
the house soon after he walked away.
Had she known all the time where
the Japanese was? Had she hunted
him out to make terms with him? II
that were the case. her action indi-
Gated a new and unsupported distrust
of Orme himself Her failure to call
for help when Orme and Porter came
up in their launch seemed to show
that her presence in the other boat
was voluntary. And yet Orme could
not believe that there was not some
simple explanation which she would
welcome the first chance to make. He
could not doubt her.
The immediate thing to do. how
ever, was to find out just what she de-
sired. Suppressing his excitement.
he called out:
Girl"
At the same time he turned the Ian
tern so that his own face was H.
Eliminated.
Mr. Orme," she cried. rising from
her seat. You here?"

II know why he went out so far"
remarked Porter. He is running
without lights"
THAT in itself is suspicious. isn't
IT," Orme asked.
why, yes, / suppose so-though
people aren't always as careful as
they might be. Our own lights aren't
lighted. you see."
Have you any clue at all as to
where she is?"
"Only from the direction the
sounds came from Just before the ex-
plosions stopped. She had Roadway
enough to slide some distance after
that, and I'm allowing for it-and for
the currents. With the lake as it is.
she would be carried in a little"
For nearly half an hour they contin-
ned straight out toward mid-lake.
Orme noticed that there was a slight
swell The lights of Evanston were
now mere twinkling distant points,
far away over the dark void Of the
waters.
Porter shut of the power. I'VE
must be pretty near her." he said.
They listened intently.
Perhaps l steered too far SOUTH"
said Porter at last.
He threw on the power, and sent
the boat northward in slow, wide
circles. The distant steamship had
made progress toward the northeast
bound, perhaps, for Muskegon, or
some other port on the Michigan
shore. She was passenger steam
er. apparently, for lines of portfolios
and deck-windows were marked by
dots of light. There was no other
sign of human presence to be seen on
the lake. and Orme's glance ex-
lpectantly wandered to her lights now
and then.
At last, while he was looking at 1t,
after a fruitless search of the dark
ness, he was startled by a strange
phenomenon. The lights of the
steamer suddenly disappeared. An
instant later they shone out again.

With an exclamation. Orme seized
the steering-wheel and swung It over
to the right.
There she is" he cried. and then:
Excuse me for taking the wheel that
way. but l was afraid I'd lose her."
Il don't see her." said Porter.
No; but something dark cut on
the lights of that steamer. Hold her
So" He let 60 the wheel and peered
ahead.
Presently they both saw a spot Of
blacker blackness in the night Por-
ter set the motor at half-speed
Have you got bulls-eye lantern?
asked Orme in an undertone.
Yes. in that locker"
Orme stopped and lighted the lam
tern in the shelter of the locker.
Now run up alongside" he said.
and ask II they need help.
The outline of the disabled boat
now grew more distinct Porter
swung around toward it and called:
Need help?"
After moments walt, q voice re-
piled:
YES. You tow me to Chicago. I
pay you"
It was q voice which Orme recog.
inzed as that of the Japanese who
had been with Maku in the attack
at the Pere Marquette.
Cant do that" answered Porter.
I'll take you In to Evanston"

tory. Il 60 to Chicago. fix engine

At this moment Orme raised his
lantern and directed its light into the
other boat It shone into the blinking
eyes of the japanese. standing by the
motor. 1t shone-
Great Heaven! Was he dreaming?
Orme could not believe his eyes. The
light revealed the face of the one
person he least expected to see-for.
