Before Breakfast
a Splendid Habit
Open sIuices of the system each

Those of us who are accustomed TO
feel dull and heavy when we arise;
splitting headache, stuffy from a cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom-
ach, lame back, can, instead, both
look and feel as fresh as daisy always
by washing the poisons and toxins
from the body with phosphated not

We should drink, before breakfast,

previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary canal before putting
more food into the stomach.
The action of limestone phosphate
and hot water on an empty stomach
is wonderfully invigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one
splendid appetite for breakfast and it
is said to be but little while until
the roses begin to appear in the
cheeks. A quarter pound Of lime
stone phosphate will cost very little at
your druggist or from the store, but
is sufficient to make anyone who is
bothered with biliousness, constipa-
ton, stomach trouble or rheumatism
a real enthusiast on the subject Of in
ternal sanitation. Try it and you are
assured that you will look better and
feel better in every way shortly

CHAPTER XII.
An Unrecorded Deed.

The Preacher proved to be the
strangest thing In all this strange
country to Sandry as he watched him
in the days that followed. He. spoke
but seldom and then with a quaint pre-
cision, beauty Of speech and thought
that amazed the man from the East.
But they were old thoughts. Sandry
found at last, thoughts formulated in
the fire and enthusiasm of youth, hence
still burning when youth had fed and
age had brought its empty seeming.
And 1t is there" he said to himself,
that S'letz gets her manner of speech,
though her visions are her own, born
of her conferred soul"
AT the end of the week Sandry went
to Salem. When he returned his face
was drawn as if from loss of sleep,
and he summoned Daily to the office.
Sandry pulled open drawer in his
desk and took out the deed to the East
Belt.
This" he said tensely, has never
been recorded. / searched the records
at the land office and our deed is not
there. Instead there is a brand new
homestead filing in the name of T. j.
O'Connel. Daily, either old Frazer was
crooked or a fool"
There was q strained note In the
owners voice. His foreman sat In the
tip-tilted office chair, open-mouthed
and round-eyed.
Then Hampden's got tn strangle-
holt-damn his soul to hell! He
knows about the contrack an he'll blk
it il he can. But Frazer wasn't crook
ed, Mr.. Sandry, I'd stake my life on
that"
Then why did he sell me the East
Belt stumpage-the prize card in the
Dillingworth pack-without q record
cd deed? This isn't worth Its paper. {"
He waved the folded slip.

done service on many bride path n
the far metropolis-ands she sst Black
Bolt like a soldier! Sandry watched
her 60 with an unconscious pride IN
her urban appearance. She rode
astride in his saddle, but though he ad-
mired every line of the splendid pair.
he was conscious of a comparison
which left something to be desired.
Black Bolt with Siletz swinging drunk
emily to the dip and lift of his running
stride. had been one. They had been
the West. This was the East-and it
was artificial
While Sandry stood at the block
watching Miss Ordway cantering down
/ the valley, he heard light step be-
hind and Siletz came around the filing
shed. He turned to her, smiling into
her eyes. which lighted slowly as they
rested on him.
Where have you been. Little
Squaw?" he asked.
Over the hog-back."
Eight miles! You shouldn't go of
like that. child. Don't you know you
might lose yourself In this wilder
ness?"
Sandry moved slightly and Siletz
glanced across his shoulder down the
valley. A gasp, as of indrawn breath
made him look up.
Her lips were open and intense as.
tonishment sat upon her face. For a
moment she stared at the distant
rider. Then she whirled, so swiftly
that one of her long braids whipped
across Sandry's face like a lash, and
dashed into the lean-to.
When she emerged the dark color
had drawn out of her checks and lips,
leaving them ashen. Her face worked
and Sandry fell back step at sight
of her eyes. They were all savage,
flaming with a rage which astounded
him.
why why - Sletz!" he cried,
catching her by the wrist as she
passed him, II didn't know you felt
like this about the horse!"
But she flung his grasp loose in
perfect fury and dashed up the steps
to the kitchen, the sobs coming wildly.
With an indescribable sensation
sending shivers down his spine, the
young owner went to his Office.
When Miss Ordway returned late In
the day her smart habit was stained
with mud, her little cap was charm
ingly awry, and she bore all the ear
marks of adventure.
"But / know Hampden of the Vel
low Pines" she whispered intimately
as Sandry assisted her 20 dismount.
"if l did have to manage rather
spectacular fall and ruin my coat in
your unspeakable mud. l think he'll
furnish admirable data"
"What?" cried Sandry, you did
that? Well, for the love of heaven!
No wonder you can portray other
folks emotions! You simply go out
and make your situations"

glance as earnest. you speak in rid

"and I'm inclined tn think the pummel-
ing John gave you has injured your

The Preacher reached him as the
other turned away, followed by his
men, who shouldered their tools and
disappeared through the underground
in shambling Gle. abandoning the
fight for other means.
"A stranger" asked the newcomer,
extending that fine white hand. "a

All, so easily! And q little farther
along there is regret and shadow. All,

He turned troubled blue eyes to the
foreman and the latter, strong and
numbering as an OK, laid light touch
upon the sacred flute.
The troubled eyes dropped thereon.

He laid his hand on Sandry's arm

he turned away. "I1l 90 down to camp,

There was quick sliding of some
thing like fear in his voice.

third century B. G. gave his patients
a preparation of hemp to make them
insensible during surgical operations.
The most important anesthetic OF
ancient and medieval times was, how

Two other anesthetizing agencies
