Animal Actors.

The impression is created by an occa-
sional moving picture of wild animal
life that the beasts. in order to force
them into poses for the camera, are
cruelty treated. Nothing. however, it is
said, is further from the truth. Careful
investigation has shown that force is
seldom employed. and wherever it has
been used the film resulting has been
unsatisfactory. Mr.. Ernest A. Dench. Il

extensive investigation Of this phase OF

With this slight clew both Drake
and Wilkerson toiled ~unweariedly un;

the idol had indeed been sent into an.
other part of the country for safe keep

Then they prepared to follow, hav-

ed also to have gone hillward.
Mrs. Darnell most unwillingly con,
sented to stay behind. but yielded
when Drake set before her the diff,
culties and perils of the road they
must take.
Both men promised to be gone only
so long as would be needful to recover
the idol, and to both separately she
made it plain that she had gone as far
as she would in helping them.
The two men found u couple of half
bloods to their liking and by judicious
expenditure of money managed to get
together a small! band to accompany
them into the hills.
1t was impressed upon them that the
trip was dangerous and that the hill

pretense they offered of peaceableness
and varied on friend and foe alike.

Equipped at last, they started forth
and for two days kept pretty closely
to the river, which wound about

Ruth had promised to marry him.
Faversham belonged to that great
class Of Englishmen who unite the
virtues of careful training with an
adaptability to circumstance which
has made Great Britain the ~colonizer
of the world.
He was as formal in many ways as
a clock. In others he could amaze the
most impulsive and impressionable adj
venturer.
When he first met Ruth he had had
not the faintest notion Of wooing her.
His admiration had been frank and

His volunteering to join John Dorr
and Ruth in this wild search for tho
missing idol had been what he called
a lark.
1t was only long association with her,
the constant view Of her pretty inno-
cence and an occasional glimpse of her
%profounder and womanly nature that
had touched his heart and wakened in
him feelings that he had refrained
from confessing to himself.
Then came the moment when she
had turned to him for help and he had
been the single person in the world
who could ave John Dorr.
Sharp and brief as had been the
struggle in his own mind, it had
brought him to an acknowledgment Of
the fact that she was the only woman
he wanted for his wife.
On the very tick Of her hour of trou-
BILE he had ventured to ask his reward
for service.
She had promised, and now he, baro-
net and retired officer Of the British
army, shook like a boy at the thought
Of the happiness that awaited him.
They met at breakfast. Dorr still
showing the effects Of his nights ad-
ventures. Ruth bright eyed from want
of sleep and Sir Donald alone present
ing the appearance of one who had be-
gun the day Alright after a sound
nights rest.
Their natural topic of conversation
was of DORIS attempt to capture the
idol and Sir Donald's rescue of him.
John could give little satisfaction to
Ruth's minute inquiries, and the Eng
lishman confessed that he himself,
though much more familiar with the
native ways and native temples, had
not much notion of exactly how it had
all come about nor how he had found

But the idol itself, the object of their

Well simply have to watch Dorr,"
Wllkerson said at last. 1--WE know he

Jean Darnell ~sullenly agreed. but
privately confided to Drake that she
thought Wilkerson had lost his nerve.
The climate did not suit her, nor the
food, nor the primitive modes of travel,
and her temper grew worse and worse.
Drake promised to do some Investigate

more completely under the woman's

the precious papers himself and so put

Strangely enough. the man, weakly

an honest and whole souled love for

ACID ST0MACHS
ARE DANGEROUS
Common Sense Advice by Distin-
guished Specialist.

Acid" stomachs are dangerous be-
cause acid irritates and infames the
delicate lining of the stomach, thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action of the stomach, and leading to
probably nine-tenths of the cases Of
stomach trouble from which people
suffer Ordinary medicines and med
ical treatments are useless in such
cases, for they leave the source Of
the trouble, the acid in the stomach,
as dangerous as ever. The acid must
be neutralized, and its formation pre-
vented, and the best thing for this
purpose is a teaspoonful of bisurated
magnesia, a simple antacid, taken in
a little warm or cold water after eat
ing, which not only neutralizes the
acid, but also prevents the fermenta-
ton from which acidfty is developed.
Foods which ordinarily cause distress
may be eaten with impunity if the
meal is followed with a little bisurat-
ed magnesia, which can be obtained
from any druggist, and should always
be Aept handy.
