ONE MILLION DOLLARS FOR A
GOOD STOMACH.
This Offer Should Be a Warning to
Every Man ano Woman.


Every Man ano Woman.
The newspapers and medical jour
nails recently have had much to say
relative to a famous millionaire's offer
Of a million dollars for a new stomach.
This great multi-millionaire was too
busy TO worry about The condition OF
his stomach. He allowed his dyspcp-
sla to run from bad to worse until In
the end it became iIlcurable.
His misfortune serves as a warning
to others.
Every one who suffers with dyspep-
sia for n few years will give every
thing he owns for new stomach.
Dyspepsia is commonly caused by an
abnormal state Of the gastric juices,
or by lack of tone In the walls of the
stomach The result is that the stom-
ach loses its power to digest food.
We are now able to supply certain
missing elementsto help TO restore
to the gastric juices their digestive
power, and to aid in making the stom-
ach strong and well.
We know that Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets are a most dependable rem
edy for disordered stomachs. indiges-
ton. and dyspepsia.
We want you to try them and will
return your money IL you are not
more than satisfied with the result.

Would you rather pay for pump
once when you buy it, or pay for one
three or four times?

When you buy a pump, poorly
made from cheap materials, you have
only started to pay for it, for you have
to pay for couple of others during
the time a good one would still be Civ
ing satisfactory service.
This isn't the worst feature of buying a
cheap pump; the annoyance and inconven~
fence it causes by getting out of order is ev-
en- worse than the expense
The pumps we sell are the reliable, durable kind
that give lasting satisfaction. They easily flow the
most water and do require repairs get of order
When you need pump,t pays to buy one of ours,
and if you already have poor one, it will pay you to
buy good one from NOW

CHAPTER XVIII.

At a small hour of the morning they
made Diamond Harbor in pitch dark
ness and without misadventure were
successful in causing themselves to be
t%ranshipped, bag and baggage, to the
twinscrew steamship Poonah, which
vessel rode at anchor in midstream.
Toward eight o'clock Of the white
hot forenoon that followed. O'Rourke,
in the shadow of a long-boat on the
Poonah's promenade deck, stood fin
fishing a matutlnal cigar and watching
narrowly a tender ferry out a final
boatload Of passengers from the east
ern river bank.
Slowly the tender forged toward the
steamers side; and as it drew near,
ORourke forgot to smoke and bent
over the rail to inspect with unremit-
ting interest those upon its decks.
The forward deck Of the tender held
his regard but briefly; those who
waited there, cycling impassively the
towering tanks of the liner, were one
and all Of the east, of races, creeds
and types too numerous to catalogue.
These the adventurer might not read,
save individually upon personal con
tact. II trouble was to come from
them, collectively. or individually, he
would not know until the blow had
fallen. On the other hand, he might
be able to hazard shrewd surmises as
to the potential animus inherent in
any one Of the Europeans who were
to be his fellow passengers.
The latter were a mere handful;
half a dozen commercial travellers
from London, Paris, Berlin, their avo-
cations evident beyond dispute: a sal
low English missionary with his with
cred wife, sombre figures In the stark
sunlight, a red-faced deputy-sub-some-
thing-or-other Of the Indian govern
ment, complacent in white drill and
new pith helmet with a gay puggaree;
a lone English girl. and a Frenchman.
The two latter held the 1rishman's
attention; the girl because. even at a
distance. her slim whitehead figure
and well-poised head seemed singu-
larly fresh and attractive; the man
because-well, because O'Rourke was
susceptible to premonitions.
He was q tall man and broad. the

cast upon the table between them the
Pool of rlame.
He looked up, blind to the glee and
triumph in Danny's face.
