The House put in busy session, pass

tence. The vote was close, 30 to ~, but
the House seemed to agree with the gen
tleman from Brandon that already Yer
mont has sufficient laws establishing
grounds for divorce.
Seven measures have been signed by
the governor, among the number being
the budget bill, so called, which was
introduced by a special committee head
ed by Mr.. Smith of st. Adams City,

an important step toward having a per-
feet system on which TO base expendl-
lures.

diarrhoea, indigestion, coIic-remem-
Der, a good inside cleaning should
always be the first treatment given.
Millions Of mothers keep California

ton, Godfrey sat down on the bot
tom step and removed his shoes, mo-
tioning us to do the same. Simmond'
obeyed phlegmatically, but my hand;
were trembling SO with excitement tha1
l was in mortal terror lest l drop one
Of my shoes; but I managed to get then
both off without mishap, and to SCI
them softly on the floor at the stair
foot.
When at last looked up with a sigh
of relief, Godfrey and Simmonds were
stealing slowly up the stair, revolver III
hand. I followed them, but 1 confess
my knees We're knocking together, for
there was something weird and chilling
in that voice going on n on: IL
sounded like the voice of a mailman;
there was something about it at once
ferocious and triumphant
Godfrey paused an instant at the
s~tairhead, listening i%ntently; then ne
moved cautiously forward toward an
~opendoor from which the voiced
seemed to come, motoining us at the
same time to stay where we We're. And
as I knelt, bathed in presperation, |
caught one word, repeated over and
, over:
"Revanche! Revanche! Revanche!
Then the voice fell to a sort Of low
growing, as of q dog which worries
its prey, and 1 caught a sound as Of
ripping cloth.
Godfrey, on hands and knees, was
peering into the room. Their he drew
back and motoined Us forward.
l shall never forget the sight which
met my eyes as l peeped cautiously
around the corner of the door.
The room into which I vas looking
was lighted only by the ray which
filtered between the Stats of a closed
shutter. In the middle Of the floor
stod the Boule cabinet, and before it,
with his back to the door, stood a man
ripping savagely away the strips OF
burlap in which it had been wrapped,
talking to himself the while in a sort
of savage sing song, and pausing from
moment to moment to glance at a hud-
died bundle lying on the floor against
the opposite wall. For a time, I
could not make out what this bundle
was, then, straining my eyes, I saw
that it was the body of a man,
wrapped round and round In some web
like fabric.
And as 1 stared at him, I caught the
glitter Of his eyes as he watched the
man working at the cabinet-a glitter
not to be mistaken-the same glitter
which had SO frightened me once be-
fore
Godfrey drew me back with a firm
hand and took my place. AS for me,
L retreated to the stair and sat there,
feyerishly hopping my face and trying
to understand. Who vas this man?
What was he doing there against the
wall? What was the meaning Of this
teroclous scene
Then my heart leaped into my throat,
for Godfrey, with q sharp cry OF
"Halte-la!" sprang to his feet and
dashed into the room, Simmonds at his
heels.
1 suppose two seconds elapsed before
l reached the threshold, and I stopped
there. staring c1utchinp q + tho ual1 r.

STOP EATING MEAT If
KIDNEYS OR BACK HURT
Take a Glass Of Salts to Clean Kid
neys If Bladder Bothers You
Meat Forms Uric Acid.

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a w~ell-known authority.
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches. acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary ir-
ritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces OF
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in a glass OF
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid Of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids in
the urine SO it no longer initiates, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes a delightful ~effervescent Iithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take nov and then to keep the
Kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.--Adv.
