MOTHER! IF CHILD'S
 TONGUE IS COATED
If cross, feverish, constipated, give
 "California Syrup of Figs

A laxative today saves sick child tomorrow. Children simply will not take the time from play to empty their bowels, which become clogged up with waste, liver becomes slug gish; stomach sour.
 Look at the tongue, mother! If coated, or your child is listless, cross feverish, breath bad, restless, doesa' t eat heartily, full of cold or has sore throat or any other childrens ail- ment, give teaspoonful of Cali fronia Syrup of Figs" then don't worry, because it is perfectly harm less, and in few hours all this constipation poison, sour bile and fermenting waste will gently move out of the bowels, and you have a we'll, playful child again. A thorough inside cleansing" is oftimes all that is necessary. It should be the first treatment given in any sickness.
 Beware of counterfeit fig syrup. Ask your druggist for 50-cent bot tie of California Syrup of Figs" which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown ups plainly printed on the bottle. Look carefully and see that 1t is made by the California Fig Syrup Company Don't be fooled!

CHAPTER VI.
Stepping Out-DownhiIl.

Jason, this is nobody l know"
Wentworth sat staring at a card his
man laid before him. He knitted his
brows querulously. Make him under
stand that I'm engaged"
He's terrible masterful, Marse
Enoch,' said the darky apologetically;
hes boup' he'll see yo'. He's a gen.
tleman all right. I dom believe l kin
git rid OBJ him easy"
Tell him l can spare ten minutes"
Jason ushered the visitor into Went
worth's library. He was a tall. distin-
guished man, with fine, highbred
face. His manners were exceedingly
gracious. yet simple
Il don't believe. Mr. Oswald. I've met
you BEFORE" said Enoch.
You haven't" Grant Oswald
smiled cordially. your man tells me
you have exactly ten minutes to spare.
I'll go straight to business. I'm an
Englishman. have been in New
York for three weeks. want to in
vest money In something along the
theatrical line"
oh" Enoch looked up sharply
Andrew Merry mentioned you"
Yes. l spoke to Merry one night on
the elevated. He's one of your few
American actors whom 1 admire. II a
play could be found that fitted him
he spoke of having one-I'm willing to
venture hundred thousand dollars on
its production"
"A hundred thousand! That would
be production worth while!"
"But-remember-on II the play
appeals to me. I've been studying
theatrical business since was a
youngster. l never threw money away
on it,
"If you can stay will read you the
play now"
my ten minutes are up" The Eng
liehman smiled.
This work can wait Excuse me a
minute" Wentworth lifted a heap Of
clippings and copy which Uttered his
table. Then he walked to the safe and
knelt before 1t. He had Just opened the
door and laid his hand upon the manu-
script when the door opened and Dor
cas- ran in. Jason followed, carrying

mo other actor can. Merry has the
entire conception OF 1t now"
Where is he?"
Il don't know"
II thought you promised Mr. Oswald
to have him here and get things start
ed for an early production"
Il did. l am hoping to find Merry
at one OF his haunts He must be
found and put on his feet There's a
tremendous lot at stake. Dorry." he
turned to her appealingly. won't you
help me?"
"lll help you," Dorcas spoke slowly,
'if you can assure me of one thing"
"What?"
THAT there is no wrong to be done" !"
There is no wrong to be done
Merry will have the opportunity of
his life, If he can only be made to
see it that way"
And there is no wrong to be right
ed?"
There is no wrong to be righted" ;"
Then he must be found. When he
is found" the girl spoke decisively,
he must appear before the world
as the author of his play"
He won't do It," answered Went
worth
He rose, put on his hat, and went
out Dorcas heard the front door slam
behind him. then she laid her face on
the arm of the sofa and burst into
tears.
The Idaho Springs siftings-news., 1914-11-21

Everything we had planned"
Enoch's voice was calm. Give 1t
big production. advertise it as a play
never was advertised before, and build
up your fame as an emotional actor"
What. will you not play the con-
vict?"
Il! or course not. There is only
one actor in America who can play
John Esterbrook'
Andrew rushed across the room In
blind fury. He stretched out his hand
and dealt Wentworth a singing blow
across the mouth. That actor won't
play it. Do you understand"
Wentworth lifted his arm flercely,
then it dropped nervelessly by his
side. The veins rose in his neck and
forehead like taut cords. He stood
staring at Merry. who strode about the
room in a demoniac fury
God! You're not a man. You're
damned, low-down. scurrilous black
leg. And to think of you standing
there, looking me In the face-God!"
Merry raised his hand again as II to
strike, then he dropped 1t by his side,
shuddered. and dashed across the
room. He picked up his hat and turned
to the door.
Where are you going?" asked
Enoch sternly.
I'm going straight to-hell."
He lifted his gloves from the table.
Beside them lay the manuscript of his
play. He stretched out his hand and
turned his eyes on the other man.
watching him as a thief might, who
fears being caught in an act of rob-
berry.
Take It," cried Enoch. Il have
copy Of it. a copy in my own hand
writing"
Merry stood lingering the pages.
What do you propose to do with
your-swag?"
Call it by decent name. 1t be-
longs to me. Money does not count
with me in this transaction. You may
take all the royalties. l want nothing
but the authorship Of the play"
Nothing but the authorship"
Merrys glance was a malediction.
He dropped the pages and tossed his
hat upon his head. Wentworth watched
man had changed. His clothes, i'm
maculate an hour ago, looked dishev
eled. lock of fair hair strayed down
over his forehead. his linen had a bat
tered appearance. the white hyacinths
dropped from his buttonhole like bios
SONS which had been touched by frost.
He stood for moment with the door
knob in his hand staring at Went
worth. who returned his gaze with
cold, ruthless scrutiny. Merry's eyes
fell before them. 1t was the first pal
pable concession to Enoch's stronger
will.
"Good-by," he said with an unsteady
laugh. He closed the door behind him
Wentworth turned to the table, lifted
the manuscript and stood glancing
through the closely scrawled pages.
Then he crossed the room. dropped 1t
upon the red Goals, leaned his head
upon the mantel, and watched until
each gray ash became filmy atom of
dust.

3IAmes so Per Cent of Accidents to
CareIessness of Miners.

Denver.-The first annual report OF
the state inspector Of coal mines
shows that although eleven more
mines We're operated during 1913 than
during 1872, the total coal production
decreased 1,74O,009 tons for the year.
The number of tons mined during
1919 were 9,26S,939 of which 1,92s,676
were Ignite. 720,353 semi-bituminous.
6,oG7.256 bituminous. and 52,654 an
thracite. The total number of mines
operated was 17S and the average
price at the mine a ton was o5 2-3
cents.
Inspector James Dalrymple says in
his introduction: During the year
l1G lives We're lost in and about the
coal mines, lO4 underground and six
on the surface. OF the underground
accidents, Al per cent were due to
falls of rock and coal, and 40 per cent
of all fatal accidents are due to the
same causes, 1t is apparent that at
least one-half of them could have been
prevented by better discipline, stricter
supervision and the installation of
proper safeguards.
For the last three years there has
been a steady increase in the number
OF lives lost to each 1000 employed
and decrease in the number of tons
produced for each life lost in the coal
mines of our state. the same being
true throughout the United States
The strained relations between en-
ployer and employe are responsible
for great many accidents, because
such relations cause strikes and
when many green men are shipped in
to take the places Of the strikers,
many of the former depend almost
entirely on the officials to protect
them from danger"

CHAPTER V-continued.

Enoch wrenched his arm free and
rose awkwardly to his feet. The come
dian drew back with a startled express
sion, as If fear struggled with be-
wilderment
You see." Enochs lips were per.
fectly colorless. your mental ability
Ia pledged to me-"
Merry stared at him, curious and
perplexed.
1T is your mental ability which
claim now" Enoch said deliberately.
Andrew spoke in a coarse whisper.
Il don't understand"
Il demand your play!"
You demand my play? To SELF"
No; of course not" Wentworth
jerked out the words abruptly why
should l want to sell? l want to pro-
duce it-as mine, as one-I have writ
ten"
Merry moved toward him with an
agony of terror in his eyes. You
want to take from me my one COM
plete effort, my one ambition. my
everything-the work which is making
a man of me, on which have toiled
steadily for weeks? You would do
that! Do you understand-while l
wrote l scarcely stopped to eat or
sleep? When l did sleep dreamed of
1t and"
He stopped. too much affected to
trust his voice. He laid one hand over
the other as if to still himself. for he
was trembling.
Wentworth stood looking at the
younger man. Something cold and re-
lentless crept into his eyes. He laid
his hand on Merry's arm.
Let me talk to you, Andrew
Talk! Talk! You damned thief"
He pushed Enoch aside with quick re-
pulsion- His face was blazing with

play. She had . full appreciation Of
Merry's talents and she had seemed to
like him while they were together
during the summer. He paused to
pull himself together mentally, then
he called her. She came slowly into
the room, which had grown dark.
"Dorry," said Wentworth slowly, do
you know YOU have not said yet that
you like-my play?"
Your play?"
why, Dorry?"
The girl spoke in an unsteady voice.
Il don't believe, Enoch. that Andrew
Merry told you of a long talk we had
at Juniper Point. You remember you
left me alone with him when you were
called to Boston. We sat on the rocks
one afternoon and he told me his plot
for this play-he had been thinking It
out for years and years. Why" the
girl shook her head impatiently, why,
Enoch. he had labored on it so long
that some of the speeches were writ
ten. in his mind. Sometimes he put
the story into the very words you
read"
During few minutes Enoch Went
worth fought the battle of his life. It
was the struggle between good and
evil, which every human being har-
bors to greater or lesser degree, in
one soul, in one body Wentworth
sighed. The battle had passed and
evil had won. 1t was prepared to
carry him through the most dangerous
