DRINKING Water.

It is surprising how many people
drink little or no water. There is no
greater purifying agent than plenty OF
water internally. An abundance Of it
not only f1ushes the entire system, but
improves the action Of the skin; hence
the complexion. Care should be taken
that the water drunk Is free from
germs. II there is any doubt boil 1t.
Do not confne yourself exclusively to
either cold or hot water and do not
take either at extreme temperatures. !.

Settled the Duel.

, Lord March, afterward the Marquis
Of Queensberry, was not accustomed
to view duel with unbecoming appre-
hension and usually attended an affair
with an air of enjoyment that often
was decidedly displeasing and embar-
RAISING to his adversary. But he was
served at last with that sauce which
the proverb explains is for the gander
as well as for the goose. It was when
he was challenged to fight an Irish
sportsman. Lord March appeared on
the ground accompanied by a second,
surgeon and other witnesses His, OPP
ponent arrived soon afterward with a
similar retinue, but added to by per-
son who staggered under the weight Of
a polished oak coffin, which he depos-
tied on the ground, end up, with it's lid
facing Lord March and his party. Lord
March became decidedly uncomfort-
able when he read the inscription plate,
engraved with his own name and title
and the date and year Of death, and
peace was patched up.

have fallen into the habit OF dating
everything in my life from the time
of my crippling accident.
When I was little girl. some years
before my accident. used to see the
young fellow at the window of the
adjacent house. The family had Just
moved in, but we did not know each
other. In large towns this is often
the way.
am three years older than Madge,
my sister, and 1t always behooved me
to set her a good example. Perhaps
on that account was especially anxi-
GUS that she should not see me ex-
change glances with the boy at the
window opposite. And Madge was
always the beauty. while am plain;
what could do Madge must not do
without more serious consequences.
The house was ours. Our parents
had died when we were small, and an
aunt came to live with us and take
charge. When she died was twenty
two and Madge nineteen. We stayed
on in the house. but our annuity was
a tiny one. There was just enough
money to let US exist and little more.
We used to talk about our future. OF
course We both expected to be mar
ried.
IT marry first" said Madge, you
will come and live with us until you
marry"
"Who would marry an ugly duckling
like me?" l asked, though in my heart
l knew some day the man would come.
Madge was indignant with me. She
always saw me through the glasses
of love. But beside Madge was a
black little dwarf. Madge had one Of
those saints faces, and a wealth Of
golden hair that made her wonderful.
II we had been like other girls-I
mean. used to social life-her admir-.
ers would have been innumerable.
All this while the family had lived
next door. We had come to know
them slightly. Roger. the young man.
was away at college. We had not
seen him for years.
Then came the accident. It was q

when I recovered consciousness was
lying at home In my own bed, and the

added to their good spirits. But Elisa

that's Just what the silly girl de-
served"
Again her eye rested on large pine
tres spread out in the valley below
her. She remembered watching It
sway In the breeze q year before. and
she Idly wondered how many trage-
dies and comedies It had witnessed In
its old life.

sun dipped suddenly below the oppo-
site hilltops, Elizabeth breathed .
sigh Of relief, but the boys begged for

take us home" "Oh." she exclaimed
suddenly. "I told him the other path.

A few minutes later Jimmy and
Peter encountered Robert Willis at the
fork in the road. Robert had Travelled
many miles that day in order to keep
a melancholy sort of tryst with him

lied the foolishness of his action, but
he had made the trip nevertheless. He

better, after three weeks OF terrifying
unconsciousness.
The days passed and felt stronger.
I wondered why the look Of pain re-
mained ON Madge's face. At last they
told me. should never be able to

For . whole year was an invalid.
One day famous visiting surgeon
passed through our town. He spent
four hours here, and two Of them were
a& my bedside. Madge had brought
him, pleading that he should come and
examine me. He shook his head
frankly when he had completed the
examination.
There is one man who can re-
place the knee In the socket. and
thai Is Ochs of Vienna" he said. "It
has been tried in our hospitals, but
never successfully. He has special
technic for repairing the atrophied
Mgaments. You must go to him II you
Wish to get WELL"
When he was gone Madge and I
stared at each other in dismay. Even
II the great surgeon were willing to
operate for nothing, It was impossible
to go to Vienna unless-we sold the
house!

OF course l refused, and that was
the beginning Of our first big quarrel.

Finally we arrived at q compromise.

rifles and a quantity of ammunition.
About two weeks ago 1t became
known that federal authorities had
discovered a number Of machine guns
and rifles in warehouse owned by
Z6saya, but nothing was disclosed to
indicate the ownership Of the muni-
tions Of war.
Federal authorities located another
lot of war material In district In
habited by Mexicans. near the inter
national boundary. A guard was
placed over the lot, comprising ten
machine guns and 1900 rifles.
United States officials here served
notice on Gen. Huerta that II he failed
to advise them of his movements in
his daily departures from his hotel,
they would place him in jail Since
his release on bond, Huerta has gone
to and from his apartments without
acquainting the officials Of his inten-
tions.
