LOST BY AN EYELASH.
When James r. Keene Laid For Him
Big Bet on Bosom.

Although James X. Keene was known
as the nerviest of Wall street opera
tors. he was anything but a betting
man on the race tracks. He dearly
loved to win valuable stakes, ana he
won nearly everything in this line eA-
cept the classic English Derby. Ills
horses rarely carried anything but an
lnfiniteslma wager. Big wagers were
few and far between with him.
One day when his Ben Brush colt
Bosom was making his racing debut
at Sheepshead Mr.. Keene visited the
paddock In company with his trainer
Jimmy Rowe. and inspected the colt
infinitely. Keene was very fond OF

proudly of his expectations OF Besom'
The colt had worked exceptionally
fast. and the race looked as sure as
sure things can be regarded on a race
| track.
The result of the conference with
Rowe was that Mr. keene decided TO
make one of his rare large bets on
Bosom to win. The news OF the heehe
wager created almost sensation In
the ring, and the price against the colt
went tumbling.
The race was run. and Bosom lost
by an eyelash. He went out with Ter

her friend in horror.
Belle began crying. Then, as Molly
coaxed her, she showed her that let

Jack had loved Belle for two years,
ever since she came back from
school, and they had grown up to-

how madly Jack. loved her. And
now-now- Well, everything SEEM

Hubert could not have reached his
age without having had numerous
love affairs. That Belle knew perfect

hopelessly in love. And the girl had
gone out of his life and married an

Hubert to have had real past than
to have been in love so desperately

 For The Bowels
No Headache, Bad Taste, Sour Stomach or Coated Tongue
 by Morning

It is more necessary that you keep your Bowels, Liver anG Ston9a h clean, pure and fresh than it is to keep the sewers and drainage of a large city free from obstruction.
 Are you keeping clean inside with Cascarets-or merely forcing 9 pas sageway every few days with salts, cathartic pills or castor oil? This is important.
 Cascarets immediately cleanse and regulate the stomach, remove The sour, undigested and fermenting food and foul gases take the excess bile from the liver and carry cut of the system the constipated waste mat ter and poison in the intestin es and bowels.
 No odds how badly and upset you feel, a Cascaret tonight will straight en you out by morning. They work while you sleep. A 10-cent box from your druggist will keep your head clear, stomach sweet. and your liver and bowels regular for months Don't forget the children--their little in- sides need good, gentle cleansing, too.
