MERCHANTS STORY

A merchant relates the following:
For years l could not sleep without
turning every hour. Whatever I ate
caused gas and sourness. Also had
stomach catarrh. ONE SPOONFUL
buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc., as
mixed in Adler-i-ka relieved me IN
STANTLY." Because Adler-i-ka flush
es the ENTIRE alimentary tract it
relieves ANY CASE constipation, sour
stomach or gas and prevents appen-
dicitis. It has QUICKEST action of
anything we ever sold. Carlson Bros,
Druggists.

THE FIRST STEP

Usually the first indication of a
lowering of health is found in the
bowels and liver. Something goes
wrong-we eat too much, or work
too hard-and the bowel action
weakens or the liver is sluggish.
That heavy feeling on arising in
the morning, dryness of the
throat, with bad taste, a slight
headache, dull eyes-all show that
food has fermented in the intes-
tines, and that the body is man.
ufacturing poisons instead of
good blood.
Clear it all out. Give the
stomach and bowels fresh start.
Encourage the liver to 20 to
work. Manalin does all of this,
without gripping or weakening.
It's the ideal laxative and liver
tonic, because it follows Natures
plan, without discomfort, inflam-
nation or forming a habit. Con-
stipation may be overcome with
its use.

It was a man who walked inside 8 framework made of bent canes, so that he was inclosed on all sides in bell shaped cage. As drew nearer was more amazed still to see that it was Lord John Roxton. When he saw me he slipped from un- der his curious protection and came toward me laughing and yet, as thought, with some confusion in his manner.

 "No onfense," said l. His good hunor returned, and he laughed.

So far all had been kindly, however far apart our desires might be, but we felt well assured that our actual plans of a descent must be kept secret, for we had reason to fear that at the last they might try to hold US by force.

 "Whatever it is, I can swear that it is of importance to us," said I. "I could read that on his face as he gave it."
 Unless we have come upon a primi- tive practical joker" Summerlee sug- gested, which I should think would be one of the most elementary devel- opments of man,
 'sIt is clearly some sort of script 9 said Challenger.
 Looks like a guinea puzzle compe- tition,' remarked Lord John, crantng his neck to have look at it. Then suddenly he stretched out his hand and seized tho puzzle.
 .sBy George" he cried, "I believe I've got it! The boy guessed right the very first time. See here! How many marks are on that paper? Eighteen. We'll, if you come to think of it, there are eighteen cave openings on the hill- side above us."
 ''He pointed up to the caves when he gave it to me-" said I.
 Well, that settles it. This is a chart of the caves. What! Eighteen of them all in q row, some short, some deep, some branching, same as we saw them. It's a map, and here's cross on it. Whats the cross for? It is placed to mark one that is much deep CT than the cthers.''
 'tOne that goes throughv' I cried.
 ''I believe our young friend has read the rtddle,'' said Challenger. ''If the cave does not go through I do not tn derstand why this person, who has every reason to mean us well, should have drawn our attention to it. But if it does go through and comes out at the corresponding point on the other side we should not have more than a hundred feet to descend.''
 "A hundred feetI" grumbled Sum- merlee.
 Well, our rope is still more than a hundred feet longT' I cried. Surely we could get down.
 How about the Indians in the caveP Summerlee objected.
 There are no Indians in any of the caves above our heads" said I. ''They are ak used as barns and storehouses. Why should we not go up now at once and spy out the landT'

CHAPTER XXI.
An Opening In the Cav

An Opening In the Gave. ~ HERE is dry bituminous wood
 upon the plateau-a species of
 araucaria, according to our
 botanist-which.i is always used by the Indians for torches. Each of us picked up a faggot of this, and we made our way up weed covered steps to the particular cave which was mark ed in the drawing. It was, as I had said, empty, save for great number of enormous bats, which Tapped round our heads as we advanced into it. As we had no desire to draw the attention of the Indians to our proceedings we stumbled along in the dark until we had gone round several curves and pen etrated a considerable distance into the cavern. Then, at last, we lit our torches. It was beautiful dry tunnel with smooth gray walls covered with native symbols, a curved roof which arched over our heads, and white glis- tening sand beneath our feet. We hur- ried eagerly along it until, with deer groan of bitter disappointment, we were brought to a halt. A sheer wall of rock had appeared before us, with no chink through which a mouse could have slipped. There was no escape for us there.
 We stood with bitter hearts staring at this unexpected obstacle. It was not the result of any conyulsion, as in the case of the ascending tunnel. The end wall was exactly like the side ones. It was, and had always been, cul de sac.
 Never mind, my friends" said the indomitable Challenger. "You have still my firm promise of a balloon"
 Summerlee groaned.
 Gan we be in the wrong cave?" suggested.

 next with 97.
 P. B. Hummer, the professional from Chattanooga, was well up with 94.
 D. M Cornwell has not been shoot ing much of late and his 92 was a good piece of work. John Fletcher got started off bad but will probably show them the way Wednesday,
 R. c. Smith made his first appear ance at the Birmingham traps and rolled up a good score.
 H. Fox has been rolling up high scores but was out of form yesterday.
 c. A. Courtney of Sulligent, who usu- ally carries home a trophy, will prob- ably be among the winners Wednes day.
 c. N. wray, who usually breaks the most of them, did not get them To- cated yesterday
 Dr. w. L. Desports and son, R. s. Desports, from Columbus, Ga, shot for the first time over the Birmingham traps. but the boy beat his father out by 10 targets.
 E. E. Hydinger, a local shooter, rolled up mighty good score. T. A. Cassity. from Nashville, was not shooting quite up to his average. R. M Leland, a local professional, rolled up a very good score. George Hillman of Nashville expects to break more targets Wednesday than he did Tuesday. Walter Huff made the long run of the day, breaking S1 without miss. Joh1 | Warren came next with the long run of 67. P. B. Hummer was third with the long run of 3S. | c. J. Barr has been away for some
 time and just returned in time for the l shoot. He just got a line on them,
 and expects to show some of the | Birmingham bunch the way Wednes- 1 day 1 R. H. Baugh was helping run the | shoot and only found time to shoot at 1 30.
 F. M. Pitman shot at targets for the ] second time and made a creditable 1 score V. T.
