Always Something to learn.

No man was ever endowed with a
judgment so correct and judicious, but
that circumstances, time and expert
ence would teach him something new,
and apprise him that of those things
with which he thought himself the
best acquainted he knew nothing; and
that those ideas which in theory ap-
peared the most advantageous were
found, when brought into practice, to
be altogether impracticable.-Ter

Bilious Attacks.

When you have bilious attack your
liver fails to perform its fuctions. You
become constipated. The food you eat
ferments in your stomach instead of
digesting. This infames the stomach
and causes nausea, vomiting and ter
rible headache. Take Chamberlain S
Tablets. They will tone up your liver,
clean out your stomach and you will
soon be as we'll as ever. They only
cost quarter. For sale by all dealers

John Edward tried to console her.
you've as much sense as any man,
vi, but you're so pretty you don't have
to use it."
Perhaps" suggested Vivian softly,
eff I had home, with it's cares and
responsibilities, I'd learn TO use it,
She turned the dangerous battery of
her eyes full upon him. Perhaps you
could teach me to think, John Ed
ward?"
John Edward drew back hastily.
"Just moonlight, Viz" But his voice
was trembling.
The Vikings daughter lost her cool
demeanor. Her lower lip quivered,
she laid a hand on his sleeve. Her
deep-fringed lashes hid her eyes, but
John Edward, the defeated, knew that
he had won his hearts desire.
'You don't mean it, VII" he exu1ted,
throwing his arms about her, and Wv
ian, laughing little and crying a lit
tie, whispered against his shoulder,
Careers may be best for some women
John Edward, but I've found my pro-
per place."

"You made one convert too" she
added, very low.
"You made a townful," he answer
ed, grimly. "Who was mine, Miss Sal
lie Mat?"
mo, ME! Oh, John Edward, I'm not
laughing at you" For he had finched
at her words. "You see," she looked
at him with the frankness which made
her so lovable, "when I tried to write
that debate, I found how little I knew.
I couldn't even read those books on
sociology, because I'd never read any
thing but novels. But you stood up
and showed clearly why you were OPP
posed to woman suffrage; so I saw
that you were right, that I, at least,
was not ready for the vote"
''Still you won," he reminded her,
with some generosity.
Vivian smiled ruefully. ST won
because I wore a pretty dress and
smiled at the judges. I won-because
you proved to them that was not to
be taken seriously"
"Never mind. Women aren't in
tended to vote"
"Oh, yes they are. It isn't because
you're a man and I'm a woman, that
you're fitted to vote and I'm not. It's
because you've been working all your
life, John Edward, and I've been play
ing. You've been thinking, and I've
been dreaming building castles in

Lord" cried Banker Tolliver,
twirling his gray mustache, west
ley's girl is handsome. Looks like a
Vikings daughter-'et vera incessu
patuit dea.'"
"a pretty as pink and as good as
gold" added DR.. Charters. Ever
since Mati1da's been sick, Vivian's
been running over every day. That's
a fine silver cup the league has offered
as prize. I'm glad the child is getting
it."
'But, Doctor" protested Miss Sallie
Mat, surely John Edwards argument
was BEST" She had spanked John Ed
and he had not shed tear or borne
grudge. Miss Sallie Mat judged the
men of Connellton by their spanking
record.
"Pooh, pooh, Sallie Mat" With a
twinkle in his eye, Banker Tolliver
waved aside her opinion. women
don't understand argument. Of course
the ladies should vote!"
And DR.. Charters turned upon her
Indignantly: "The boys a gentleman,
Sallie Mat. He'd want Vivian TO win"
From the moment that all eyes were
turned to Vivian, John Edward knew
that he was beaten, nor did he blame
the judges. But twenty-four, even
when possessed of a sense of humOr,
has it's sensitive spots; so he slipped
away from his admiring friends as
soon as he decently could.
Outside it was that breathing spell
of day, before the lamps are lit before
supper, when people linger at garden
gates for brief neighbOrly calls. John
Edward left the Auditorium, and turn
ing down a high-walled lane, made his
way to the river, to that charmed
and lonely spot where it ran through
his own land.
He sat there on a log and darkness
crept softly down. The irefies came
out and punctuated the warm black
ness about him with bits of light, and
presently the moon looked over the
pine trees and cast a pale simmer
upon the water. He had not been there
since that not-to-be-forgotten night
when, under the spell of nights en-
chantment, Vivian had admitted that
she loved him. He did not think
that he would care to come again.
A rustling in the pine-trees caught
his ear and Vivian came through the
bushes and sta beside him. She had
thrown a dark cloak over her white
dress, and in the moonlight John Ed
ward saw a look of suppressed excite
ment on her face.
John Edward" she cried, in a soft
ruch of words, you were wonderful"
I'm glad you liked my talk he an
swered, stif1y. "The judges didn't care
much for it,
''Tne judges!" She shrugged her
shoulders disdainfully. mir Tolliver
my godfather! And Mr.. Carriers, our
family physician! Of course they'd
vote for me, silly. And Miss SaIlie
Mat voted for you"
In spite of himself, John Edward
was Modified. Thanks, vi, you were
always a good chum."

Sunday, so now they gave him but
half-hearted attention; and the curate
amazed at the bristling animosity Of
some of his erstwhile humble femin-
inc hearers, grew confused, stumbled
through his argument hastily, and
with an inadvertent "Amen" sat down
The bristling animosity grew triumph
ant.
Mrs. Maria Beckwith rose to speak
for the New Era Club. She was the
mother of twins and famous house
keeper-Maria Beckwith's babies and
her peach marmalade won ribbons at
every State Fair.
81 can't burst into eloquence," she
assured her hearers, "and | hope
won't burst into baby talk"
What she did burst into, John Ed
ward never knew, for he was busily
reviewing his own arguments; but it
could not have been as effective as her
peach marmalade, for he saw Harden
Tolliver, the banker, nudge DR.. Char
ters, to prevent that worthy from
dropping asleep.
His time had come! John Edward
stood up confidently, his well-knit
frame taut with determination. The
blood of orators was in his veins, he
came of a long list of successful law
yers; indeed, DR.. Charters often said
that if Wesley had been in the Gar
den of Eden, the dispossess notice
would have been nullified. Be that as
it may, John Edwards gifted forebears
might well have been proud of him to-
day. His talk was chivalrous plea
to save woman from herself until she
settled once more to her wOrld-old
place in the social order. 1t was a
defense of that place, fervid attempt
to prove that the home held useful
vent for woman's increasing intelli-
gence and progressive activities. When
he finished speaking, there was a
breathless hush, then a storm of APP
plause, as Connellton realized that her
rising legal light" possessed touch
of the divine fire.
Vivian Horton stood up on the plat
form, tall and fair and queenly. She
wore a soft white frock and droop-
ing Leghorn hat covered with pink
roses. ConneIIton had always known
that she was a sweet and comedy girl,
but to-day, by the magis of John Ed
wards words, she stood before them
gIorifed. To-day she represented, all
in one, that wholesome womanhood
that men have ever idealized. To-day,
looking at her through misty eyes,
every man in the audience saw, typi-
fed there, the woman that he loved
best
Afterwards, no one could remember
what she said; nor was it published
in the Herald, I Though the editor
and owner, v aIker Mason, was her
second cousin. However, every man
in town agreed that her talk was
short and pleasant; just what sweet,
sensible girl, without any gaunt in
tellectualism, would be expected to
say.
The judges, Banker Tolliver, DR..
Charters, and Miss Sadie Mat Hagen,
principal of Connellton College, with
drew for their decision.
