New Mayor

The mayor of Tolliver Gulch drew
up his horse as a piercing scream
rang out beyond the belt of timber
lining the lonely mountain road he
was traversing. Then noting a cloud
of smoke through the trees he d.
verged from the trail, got beyond the
barrier and made out the little town
of Golconda in the distance, and near
er at hand on its outskirts a lonely
hut, ablaze below and a woman out
side, wringing her hands and shrieking
helplessly.
New mayoralty honors clustered
thick and newly about John Griffiths
at Tolliver Gulch, but here at dis
lance from his home town, and ever
chivalrous and helpful, he forgot
dignity. He dashed up to the side
of the distracted woman within three
minutes, brought his steed to it's
launches, summarily leaped to the
ground and shouted forth:
Anyone in the building?"
NO! MOI" cried the woman, but
all my papers are. They will be lost;
we will be ruined-oh, save them!
Save themi"
She was a tiny bit of humanity, pep
perry and active. Griffith saw that, but
she had evidently not been able to
lift a heavy ladder that she had
dragged to the spot
Where are the papers?" inquired
Griffiths.

he reach the attic. secure the wooden
box described and place it in the pos
session of its anxious, trembling and
grateful woman
THE old hut is gone, and I'm glad
of it," she exclaimed. 1T was not

time. That lazy, rowing husband of
mine will have a startler when he

The papers-theyre saved, thank

The mayor of Tolliver Gulch smiled
to himself as he recognized the di-

spirit of her own. Then he rode on
his way. thinking of another certain
little lady who filed his thoughts con-
tinually. 1t was a rough community
among whom he had cast his lot at
the Gulch, but he had found a jewel
rare amid the incongruous environ
ment. 1t was Velma Dalton, the
daughter of the district judge. Grit
fiths, as a rising young lawyer, had
won the good opinion of the judge.
The latter represented the reform ele-
ment of the struggling border settle
ment. 1t was through his influence
and support that Griffitks had been
elected mayor.
That position was proving anything
but bed of roses. The rough ele-
ment of the Gulch was opposed to in
novations. Defeated at the polls, they
went about cross-grained and venge-
full. There were mutterings of dis
content and yelled threats. The out
cast element, however, feared the
law, and the dignity and determine
ton of the judge had SO far prevented
any serious outbreak
Griffiths reached the Gulch just aft
er dark. AS he passed the Red Beav-

STUDY AND EXERCISE

Study does not hurt child unless the study time is taken from time that should be spent in out-of-door exercise.
 Overstudy and lack of exercise make thin, bloodless children. It is a com bination that provokes St. Vitus' dance.
 If your child is thin and pale, listless, inattentive, has fickle appetite and IS unable to stand still or sit still, you must remember that health is even more lm- portant than education.
 See to it at once that the patient does not overstudy, gets at least two hours out-of-door exercise every day, sleeps ten hours out of every twenty-four and takes non-alcoholic tonic like Dr. Will iams' Pink Pills until the color returns to cheeks and lips and the appetite be- comes normal.
 For growing children who become pale and thin pr. Williams Pink Pills are not only safe but in the great majority of cases they are the very best tonic that can be taken. They build up the blood and strengthen the nerves and assist nature in keeping pace with rapid growth.
 The Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N Y, will send you two books on the blood and nerves if you mention this paper. If your child is very young ask for the booklet "The Care of the Baby" Your own druggist sells Dr.. Williams Pink Pills.
