THE DAILY STORY.
HOUSES AND HEARTS.
tcopyr,xht. 1914, by W. wener.)

There had been guests at luncheon.
go II was afternoon before Phyllis
could read her letter and. as she read.
the dush that spread itself over her
face left a reflection that was Won
derfuIly soft In her big gray eyes and
the corners of her mouth puckered
pleasantly Phyllis reread the stirring
appeal with which the letter closed.
Sitting on the window seat she looked
dreamily off over the hills and en-
joyed the happy little thrills that
danred over her.
Then the telephone rang and Phyllis
was reminded that she had charge OF
a sufrragette meeting. She gathered
up her notes and was prepared to
give her paper her undivided atten-
tion. when father called, asking II she
wouldn't write a letter for him. The
letter finished. she hurried down to
meet the president of her violin club
and promised to play one of the solo
parts at the next concert. She had to
excuse her hurried adieu because OF
the persistent clang of the phone,
where her advice was demanded by an
officer of the Working Girls Ciub. OF
which she was a director, as to Wh
was to be done with certain young
sign in case other persons to whom
they strongly objected were admitted
to membership This was a grave
question and Phyllis promised to give
it careful consideration She was still
worrying over it as she put on her
wraps to go walking with her in
valid sister. Before they got home she
had agreed to lead the next mission
ary meeting and explain to the ladies
all about the poor red men," This
evening the maid had violent tooth
ache. so Phyllis donned a big apron
and began to solve the supper prob
lem. 1t was long after bedtime be-
fore the paper on suffrage was COM
pIeted. and the letter was still waiting
in its special pigeonhole. where II re-
manned for nearly a week before the
busy little woman had an opportunity
to answer it.
During that time Phyllis had heard
wonderful speaker tell of her down
trodden sisters. Her big heart had
been filed with anguish at the social
evil ard she had pledged herself to
the cause of a minimum wage.
As Phyllis picked no the letter and

An unfavorable report has been made

MAKES BACkAcHE
QUICKLY DISAPPEAR
q Few Doses Relieves All Such
Miseries. Bladder Weakness.
Kidney Trouble and Rheu-
matism Promptly Vanish

IL IS no longer necessary for any
one to suffer with backachinp. Kid;
ney trouble, have disagreeable bIad-
der and urinary disorders to contend
with, or be tortured with rheuma-
hsm, SHIT joints, and its heart
Wrenctllng pains, for tie new discov-
cry, Croxore. quickly and surely re-
lleves all such troubles.
Croxone is the most wonderful
remedy yet devised for Kidding the
system of uric acid and driving OUT
all the poisonous impurities which
cause such troubles. It is entirely
different from all other remedies. It
is not like anything else ever used
tor the purpose. 1t acts on the prin-
ciple of cleaning out the poisons and
removing the cause.
1t soaks right in through the walls,
membranes and Innings, like water in
a sponge, neutralizes, dissolves, and
makes the kidneys sift out and filter
away, all the uric acid and poisons
from the blood, and leaves the kid
neys and urinary organs clean,
strong, healthy and well.
1t matters not how long you have
suffered, how old you are, or what
you nave used, the very principle of
Croxone is such, that it is practically
impossible to take it into the human
system without results. There is
nothing else on earth like it. 1t
starts to work the minute you take it
and relieves you the first time you
use it.
If you suffer with pains in your
back and sides, or have any signs OF
kidney, bladder troubles, or rheuna-
tlsm, such as puffy swellings under
the eyes or in the feet and ankles, if
you are nervous, tired, and run down,
or bothered with urinary disorders,
Croxone will quickly relieve you OF
your misery. You can secure an orig
inal package of Croxone at trihina
cost from any frst-class druggist
All druggists are authorized to per
sonally return the purchase price if i,
fails in q single case.
