As they walked down the main
street the crowds kept growing. and
soon it was evident that something
was happening on the street.

Rutledge, as they stepped into a door

Il think the strikers have been get

been having a strike lately. and the
court has issued an injunction against

Just then number Of policemen
came along, each leading young wo-
man. whom they were evidently seek
ing to take to the city Jail near by. The
girls had been arrested for disobeying
the injunction of the court, as Mr.
Townley had cOnjectured. Among them
was the leader of the strike. young
looking woman. Lena Myers. A big.
burly policeman was leading her along
by the arm.

The crowd became attentive at once.

held her arm. giving her a shake and
adding an oath to his peremptory com

The crowd jeered and shouted at the
officers of the law, and its aspect be-

On arriving in Bronson Nelson began
to search for a boarding house and
found modest home on quiet street.
where he engaged Il room from a mid
die aged couple. After moving his few
belongings to his new home he had
feeling of rest and satisfaction. and
his outlook on the future became more
rose colOred. He found the husband
and wife with whom he was to lodge
and board agreeable and kindly. and
they at once took pains to make the
young immigrant feel at home. Their
name was Cameron, and Reginald
could easily tell that his host was
Scotchman by his accent.
He began the serious work Of getting
a job. He had not seen Albert Town
ley since he parted from him after his
arrival.
He decided first to visit the law firm
of Millman & Graham and present his
letter of introduction.
He easily found the Office. A stately,
important looking man about fifty
years of age greeted Reginald cordial
" when his card was sentsin.

1t is san. hat there is more sorrow in
in this world than joy We realize the
truth of the assertion in the fact that
the majority of people roam about with
no intention of securing relief. AS a
result of their intense suffering every
thing appears to them to be gloomy and
melancholy. Life is too short to carry
ourselves under this loathing burden.
We can assist you to enjoy the best
part of this short period on earth by
means of Herbs.
We ask you frankly why do you
meekly give your precious body up for
experiment when you know that there
is a positive cure within our grasp in
the famous Chinese Herbs? The sue
cess of the Chinese Herbs as a positive
cure for every conceivable ailment
known to the civilized world can be
easily seen from our long lists of sat-
ished and happy patrons who value our
prescriptions more than of the medical
profession. Chinese Herbs have his
tory of 5000 years and have Deen used
exclusively by the Chinese for the same
length of time. We admonish you not
to be discouraged when the majority of
the medical profession pronounce your
illness as incurable
You can at least give us chance to
demonstrate the effectiveness of Chi
nese Herbs as a remedy for all disease
and to convince. you of our optimistic
motto that where there is life there is
