CHAPTER XIV.
A Temperance of the General.

A Temperance of the General.
Keith did not inform Hope OF her
brothers death until the following
morning, but had the body properly
prepared for burial, and devoted the
remainder of the night to searching
for General Waite, and, incidentally,
for both Hawley and Scott. Both
Hickock and Fairbain assisted in this
effort to learn the whereabouts of the
dead boys father, but without the
slightest result, nor did Keith's inves
LEGATIONS reveal the gambler at any of
his accustomed resorts, while Scott
had apparently made a complete get
away. These disappearance merely
served to convince him as to the truth
of his first suspicious; Scott might
have departed for good, but Hawley
would certainly reappear just as soon
as assured his name had not been
mentioned in connection with the
tragedy. To Neb alone did the plains
man candidly confide his belief In the
guilt of these two, and when other
duties called him elsewhere. he left
the negro securing the town for any
possible temperance of either.
Heavy-eyed from lack of sleep,
heavy-hearted with his message, yet
fully decided as to what advice he
should offer. Keith returned to the
hotel, and requested an interview with
Hope. Although still comparatively
early. some premonition of evil had
awakened the girl, and In very few
moments she was prepared to receive
her visitor A questioning glance into
his face was sufficient to assure her of
unpleasant news, but, with one quick
breath, she grasped his arm as though
his very presence afforded her
strength.
How tired you look! Something

looked up into his face. and now he

and mapped by topographers OF the
United States geological survey in
connection with the preparation OF a

contour lines all topographic features,
giving elevations as determined by
the surveys spirit level work. The
ouadrangles are areas limited by par
allels of latitude and meridians Of
longitude, and differ in size with the
latitude of the areas and with the

FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY
Where the Winters Are Cold and the
Shows Deep.

Writing from the vicinity David
Harum made famous, a man says that
he was an habitual coffee drinker, and,
although he knew it was doing him
harm. was too obstinate to give it up,
till all at once he went to pieces with
nervousness and insomnia, loss of ap-
petite. weakness, and a generally
used-up feeling, which practically UNI
fitted him for his arduous occupation,
and kept him on couch at home
when his duty did not call him out.
while in this condition Grape
Nuts food was suggested to me, and l
began 10 use it. Although it was In
the middle of winter, and the Their
mometer was often below zero, almost
my entire living for about six weeks
of severe exposure was on Grape-Nuts
food with a little bread and butter and
a cup Of hot water, till 1 was wise
enough to make Postum my table Dev-
erage.
AFTER the first two weeks l began
to feel better and during, the wnole
winter never lost a trip on my mall
route, frequently being on the ROAD

"The constant marvel to me was
how a person could do the amount oil
work and endure the fatigue and hard
ship as 1 did, on SO small an amount
of food. But found my new rations
so perfectly satisfactory that l have

HEALTH FOR THE CHILD.

The careful mother, watching close
ly the physical peculiarities of her
children, soon learns that health is in
a great measure dependent upon nor
NAL. healthy, regular bowel action.
When the bowels are inactive, loss OF
appetite, restlessness during sleep, IT.
ritability and dozen and one similar
evidences of physical disorder are soon
apparent.
Keep the bowels free and clear and
good health is assured At the first
sign of constipation give the child a
teaspoonful of DR.. Caldwells Syrup
Pepsin at bedtime and repeat the
dose the following night, If necessary.
You will find the child will quickly re-
cover its accustomed good spirits, and
eat and sleep normally.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is far
preferable to salts, cathartics and
purgative waters which are harsh in
their action. Syrup Pepsin acts on
the bowels easily and naturally, yet
positively, and causes no gripping or
discomfort. Its tonic properties build
up the stomach, liver and bowels, re-
storing their normal condition.
Druggists everywhere sell DIR. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in soc and $1.00
