The past month the most popular
book at the public library was Henry
Webster's THE Real Adventure
This new story is what one would
call a social document For it is con-
oerned with a problem Of modern life
that has wide and deep significance
for the. whole social body. However
he has made 1t so entirly the indi-
yidual problem Of his two chief char
acters that it is hardly fair to call
it "a document" Of any kind. Mo-
where In recent fiction are there two
characters having more in them of
the vital worthwhile stuff Of which
life Is made than his Rose and Rod
ney Adrich. A young woman of vi
brant, blazing beauty. A man Of
clean. athletic mind Both of abound
ing vitality, great strength of charac-
ter, and keen intelligence. The story
Of their home life is the story told
in this novel. Everything is most
carefully worked out in the story for

every day from February to Novmber
on IL and that he dictated about II
thousands words a day.

sequel of the beloved Daddy Long

written by Sallie Mcbride who much
against her viii has been persuaded
to act as superintendent of the John

quantance this does not seem to be
a good choice the. farther we read
the more we realize that Sallie Is Just
the person for this place.

We'll KnowngRemedy
Relieves Chronic Case
Important to Dispose of Waste from
the stomach With Regularity.

People frequently attribute to ran
ure of the digestive organs conditions
that are primarily due to inactive
bowels. and apply remedies that from
their very nature are more apt to ag-
gravate than to relieve the disorder.
When the bowels act regularly the
stomach is In better shape to perform
its allotted tasks and can usually be
depended upon. To keep the bowels
in condition there is no more effec-
tive remedy than the combination OF
simple Laxative herbs known as Or.
Caldwells syrup Pepsin which Is SOLD
in drug stores for fifty cents bottle.
DR.. Caldwell has prescribed this
remedy in his practice for over
quarter of Il century and # is today
the standard household remedy In
thousands of homes. Mr.. Thos. De-
Loach. with the Department Of the
Interior. office Of Indian Affairs, at
Washington, wrote DR.. Caldwell re-
Gently that "Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin is the best laxative / have any
knowledge of and the cleaning up
guaranteed by its use relieves every
organ"

CLOSING THE HOUSE.

There is always danger, of course.
that an empty house will come to grief
in the absence of it's occupants for the
, summer.
Thieves may break through and steal
Moth and dust may do their worst
Fire may destroy. Rust may eat Mice
and rats may gnaw. Many unpleasant
things may happen that will bring
grief to the absent owners--and happi-
| ness. we hope. to the mice. thieves and
moths.
All we can do. when leaving our
houses unoccupied, is to take all the
precautions we know Of. Then we
should rest peacefully content through
out the summer that nothing is going
amiss.
Burglar insurance helps to produce
| this state of peaceful content. OF
course. But it is also well not to leave
jewelry. money. silver or other easily
