HAD FUN WITH A CAR CREW
xentriloquist's Art Exercised at Ex-
pense Of Impatient Conductor
and Motorman.

On Saturday night, when next to
the last car for Waikaiki had made
a stop on Beretania avenue and the
conductor was reaching for the bell
cord to start again, a wailing call
was heard, apparently from some
yards in the rear of the car.
"Wait a moment" the voice came
in the tone of a motherless calf. 1t
was repeated once or twice and the
conductor stayed his hand, says the
Hawaiian Star. 'Somebody is in
trouble" a passenger remarked, and
everybody rubbered to the rear.
Wearily the motorman left the con-
troller and went to one side of the
vestibule also to rubber.
On the third OF fourth wall pas
senger, observing that there was no
difference of distance to the sound,
claimed, cts a ventriloquist." A
man, sitting with a lady in the right
front inside seat, with laugh passed
the word to the motorman, who re-
turned to his post and grinned a
signal over his shoulder to the con-
ductor for two bells. "Ting-ting"
came sharply, and as the car moved
the voice, from a rear seat, tantaliz-
ingly bid the crew "Hurry up"

BLOOD WILL TELL


Blood will tell,' is an axiom
that mall the ages has never been
gain-said. Every man woh does a
brave, heroic act carries within his
veins a quality of blood that urges
and sustains him. No matter Wheth-
er he inherits it from a long line of
famous ancestors or from the sound
and healthy condition of his immedi-
ate parents, whose only distinction
is honorable toll and a simple, vir-
tuous life.
1t matters little where or how You
obtain it, but it matters all the world
that by some means you possess good
blood. Good blood is first, last and
always the making of manly men and
womanly women. 1t is the source Of
all courage, virtue and happiness.

of runaway. His fine big gray
horse that is the admiration of all
true lovers of horse flesh, was hitch
ed down near the railroad track and
the north bound train started out
with a most terrific noise, like that
which is never heard in Pedro and
the horse pulled back. The hitching
post which was an old one broke
off at the ground and the horse start
ed up the street the buggy striking
a post in front of the Belleview Trad
ing Co.'S store and separated itself
from the horse, which went flying up
the street. Seeing Mr.. Proctor stand
ing in the postofice door the animal
turned and made directly for him and
stopped seeming to know that he
could give it protection from the

 STOMACH SUFFERERS
Says Indigestion comes from an excess of hydrOchloric
 acid.

A well-knoWn authority states that stomach trouble and indigestion is nearly always due to acidity-acid stomach-and not, as most folks be- lieve, from a lack of digestive juices He states that an excess of hydrO- chIoric acid in the stomach retarIs digestion and starts food fermenta- ton, then our meals sour like garbage in can, forming acrid fluids, and gases which initiate the stomach like a toy balloon. We then get that heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest, we eructate sour food, belch gas, or have heartburn, flatulence, watcrbrash, or nausea.
 He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead, get from any phar- macy four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast while it is effervescing, and furthermore, to continue this for one week. While relief follows the first dose, it is im- portant to neutralze the acidity, re- move the gas making mass, start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus promote a free flow of pure digestive juices.
 lad Salts is inexpensive and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and sodi- um phosphate. The harmless salts is used by thousands of people tor stomach trouble with excellent re- suits.
