A Day In the Open.

Our anxieties are nearly all artifi-
cial and are bred indoors, under the
sitting oppression of walls and roofs,
to the maddening clangor Of pave
ments, and day in the open will often
dispel them like bad dream.
With more air and sun and ground
we find fewer instances Of immortality
and despair. For return to nature is
a return to good nature.
True, we cannot at once monument
ly leave our tasks and wander at will
into the green world whenever the
wind sets from pleasant quarter; but
for all that there are many steps that
we may take toward re-establishing
our divine heritage and rightful por-
ton in the delectable commonwealth
of out Of doors. And the best use we
can make Of it will surely consist in
wholesome normalizing exercise-not
necessarily in living out of doors more
than we do at present, but in living
there wholesomely and naturally

Marvel. Of tho Grand Canyon.

The Grand canyon cannot be describ-
ed in measured terms. Every beholder
sees it in different form, just as the
rolling clouds suggest different resem-
blances to the eyes of the beholder.
Begin with the thought of the canyon
thirteen miles wide, a mile deep, the
Colorado river, 200 feet wide. imprison-
ed down in the depths between lofty
walls of weather stained granite and
rushing wildly on its way.
1t is buried so deep that only now
and then can you get a glimpse of
what looks like little, dark ribbon of
gray. Above the black granite walls
of the river you see what you can east
ly imagine to be row after row of red
brick skyscrapers projecting from the
sides Of the canyon at acute angles
and always pinnacled by imposing
towers.
The height Of those prodigious sky
scrapers and towers cannot be meas
ured by the imagination. They seem
to rise few hundred feet. In reality
they tower thousands Of feet from the
foundation walls. The colors are mar.

tJnioue Flood Mark,

A striking warning against the floods
that rise with uncomfortable rapidity
and volume in the Rocky Mountain
streams is seen in gorge twenty five
miles west of Denver. Here Bear
creek, mere rivulet hardly ankle
deep, threads its way for several miles
through a narrow canyon, in places
hardly wide enough to permit road
way beside the stream. At one Of
these narrow points needle Of gran
lite thrusts itself up between creek and
roadway to point of more than forty
feet. Poised upon its top, like the bar
on the letter T, is huge log, twenty
feet long. 1t was left there some years
ago by a sudden flood that drowned
more than a score Of people camping
in the canyon. On brass tablet
fastened to the pillar the county au-
thorities have inscribed this pregnant
sentence, "If you knew what put this
log up here you wouldn't camp in this
canyon. York Times.

THE FINEST LAXATIVE
In 5000 YEARS
PURE CASTOR OIL TAsrELEss.
Favored or Altered. The Smell
and Taste Removed.

For 5000 years castor oil has been the
worlds best laxative, but until now an
offensive, sickening taste has limited its
use.
For 5000 years chemists have tried to
remove the taste.
Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil is just
what the name means-a pure, clear, re-
fined oil without any taste. 1t is new
discovery of Spencer Kellogg & Sons, Of
Buffalo, large refners of vegetable oils.
Anybody can disguise the taste of castor
oil by mixing it with alcohol, wintergreen,
peppermint or other fiavors, but it re-
manned for the Kelloggs to keep the oil
pure and make it tasteless. Kellogg's
Tasteless Castor Oil works even better
than the old, evil dose, without pain or
gripping. Children take it easily.
Sold now in all drug stores. 25c and SOC.
Ask for Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil and
look for the trade mark on the label-a
green castor leaf, bearing the Kellogg
signature. Made only by Spencer Kellogg

CAUSES OF "STINGS"
AT ROYAL AUCTION
Two Common Faults in Bidding
Responsible for Most
Big Losses.
TEST or \ HANDS VALUE

There arc two faults in bidding at
auction bridge that present almost a par
adoN Orc is paying too much attcn-
ton TO on-'s own hand, without due
regard to the declarations made by the
partner and the other il paying too
much attention to the partners bids, or
rather attaching too much Importance
10 them.
u is rather curious that while one
player will totally disregard his partners
warning take-out bids or his rcfusals to
assist. another playc-. Will carry his
partners suit to the c-iliug if he ev,r
gets started with H. ana nothing that the
original bidder can do will head him on
Mos, Of the big losses az auction are
traceablc to this fault.
IN the old whist days the most inter
Csting hands wer' those In which there
wee big swings hands played az dupli-
cate. in which y and : 60. ten tricks
out Of their cards at one table aid only
four at another.
Thcsn swings wcre not by any means
always the result Of poor play, but fr,.
uurHiy OF difference in judgment or ~
taking a chanc" with - bold trump lead.
They were sometimes talked o. for weeks.
and maAy Of the Old Guard can recall
ov"'r card played iu soma Of those hands
even to-day.
III til big swings at IA" bridge table
ave "stings. and they are Invariably due
to bad bidding and to bal bidding o.
various kinds. az we al en- find tho error
that made tho swing IN one hand Is
entirely different from the fault that
brought about the sting In another.
Here is = deal ia which the fret round
# III" bidding between the dealer and his
partner IS perfectly sound with no hint
