Late one Saturday afternoon John
was returning from town with Uncle
Primus, grizzled negro, beside him.
The buggy-top was pushed down so
that John might see all around with
no obstruction. As they neared the
path to the creek, he gave the lines
to Uncle Primus, felt his revolver and
drew forward his shotgun, his thoughts
concentrated on the possibilities of
that path.
Primus, beside him. proud to drive
a blOoded horse, was chuckling and
calling out: up a step, suh," and
whoa, suh," and Now thar, you!"
He saw nothing and thought of moth
ing in this world but Rags dainty
steps. And even so they came abreast
of an empty house, Rags turned his
ears and Primus chuckled again.
Johns eyes were fascinated by the
swaying of grape vine partly down
the path. AS they drew past the
house he clicked his tongue for Rags
to trOt. AS the horse moved into his
long stride, at the very moment sthat
his quickened speed bafTied the aim,
there was a rifle shot from the house
and then another Rags. used to hunt
ing, stood still, while Uncle Primus,
gutteral with fear urged him on. But
John turned, and springing from the
buggy to the window in the end of the
house, emptied his shotgun into the
door behind which, if anywhere, in
that single empty room, his enemy
must be. His blood beat so loud and
surged so madly in his ears that he
could not hear
Jim pitched forward pushing to the
door, and fell with clutching hands,
across the floor John leaned through
the broken window and poured the
contents of his revolver very carefully
into the fallen man. Then getting
back somehow, blind with triumph, he
leaped into the buggy and babe Rags

A WIDOWS LUCK
Cult the Thing That Was Slowly In

a woman tells how coffee kept her
from insuring her life:
Il suffered Tor many years chiefly
from trouble with my heart, with
severe nervous headaches and neu-
ralgia; but although incapacitated
at times for my housework, | did not
realize the gravity of my condition till
was rejected for life insurance, be-
cause, the examining physician said,
M heart was so bad he could not pass
NE.
This distressed me very much. as
| was widow and mad a child de-
pendent upon me. 1t was to protect
her future that l wanted to insure
my life.
Fortunately for me, I happened to
read an advertisement containing
testimonial from a man who had been
affected in the same way that l was
with heart trouble, ana who was bene-
htcd by leaving off coffee and using
Postum. l grasped at the hope this
held out, and made the change at
cnce.
My health began to improve imme-
diately. The headaches and neuralgia
disappeared, l gained in flesh, and my
appetite came back to me. Greatest
OF all, my heart was strengthened
from the beginning, and soon all the
distressing symptoms passed away. No
more waking up in the night with my
heart trying to fly out of my mouth!
Then | again made application for
life insurance, and had no trouble in
passing the medical examination.

you must remember, Mr. Blakeley,
that you are forcing this story from
this man. These details are unpleas-
ant, but important. You were going
to marry this young lady" he said,
turning to Sullivan, although you al
ready had wife living?"
1T was my sisters plan, and l was
in bad way for money If l could
marry, secretly, a wealthy girl and go
to Europe, it was unlikely that Ida

he asked
Sullivan stopped in surprise.

NO. 1t would do no good, and she

make her worse"
Your sister was killed, think"
The shorter detective took a small
package from his pocket and held 1t
in his hand, swapping the rubber band
which held It,
Yes, she was killed" Sullivan said
soberly. What l say now can do her
no harm"
He stopped to push back the heavy
hair which dropped over his fore
head, and went on more connectedly.
1T was late, after midnight, and we
went at once to our berths. | I'M

In Christ Our Hope.

Prayer is not the most effective
thing In the Christians life. Jesus
Christ Is better and more effective
than the best prayer ever offered. In
him, and not in prayer, lies our whole
hope. One who dated the beginning Of
his richest Christian life and expert
ence from a time of prayer when he
had asked everything and received
everything, was reminded Of this as
he prayed later, in gratitude for his
new blessings: Not because 1t was an
effective prayer, but because thou art
an effective Christ, was my prayer so
gloriously answered" Those who are
called mighty in prayer think least
about prayer as such, and most about
Christ. Yet the more we think about
Christ and the better we come to
know him, the greater will be the
place that we give to prayer in our
ives.

ON
HIS CANDIDACY
SAYS HE, LIKE EVERY AMBITIOUS
PERSON, DESIRES PROMOTION
AND THAT Is THE REASON HE
is IN THE RACE FOR GOVERNOR
Special to The journal,

Tallahassee, June 30.-In discussing
his candidacy for governor today with
your representative, Hon. Park Tram
NELL said: Every ambitious person
desires promotion, desires advance
ment and in every avenue of human
endeavor those who are deserving and
possess merit usually have extended
them such promotion as their fields of
labor afford. Ny candidacy is really
an application on my part for a pro-
motion by the people i'll whose employ
and in whose interest I have labored
for the past eight or nine years. Round
by round, / have, by the will of the
people, climbed the ladder Of public
service from an humble Office and
station to the present trust reposed in
me. May l not ask for advancement
to the next round upon the ladder"
Mr.. Trammeu makes reference to his
public service beginning as mayor of
his home town, the services rendered
to his county and state during three
sessions of the legislature, first as rep
resentative, then as state senator and
to his present service as attorney gen
eral, and says upon his record in these
capacities, his training and experience
In these offices, coupled with his posi-
ton upon public questions, his fitness
and ability, all of which is to be judged
by the voter, he will seek a promotion
from the office of attorney general to
the Office of governor. Mr.. Trammell
further said:
while my public service has given
me- broad knowledge of the different
branches of the state government, has
familiarized me with practically all the
duties of the office of governor and as
could reasonably be expected. this
knowledge of state affairs would aid
me in an efficient and faithful admin
istration if honored with the govern
ship. / fully realize that these facts
alone would not warrant my election,
but that in addition to a mans knowl-
edge of the work he wishes to under
take, his record and faithfulness in the
offices which he has filled, the prin-
ciples and policies favored and advo-
Gated by him, his fitness and ability to
fill the office, are all elements to be
considered in conjunction with his ex-
perience."
Mr.. Trammell says he will not enter
actively into the campaign for several
months but that when he does he will
refresh the mind of the voter on his
record, will let them know his position
on public questions and thus submit
his cause to the people with an abiding
faith that their verdict will be a just
one, and he believes from the reports
throughout Florida, it shall read, I'VE
the jury find for Trammell for gov
ernOr."
