"Thsre's not room for both of us on
 this river." other had groped and then thought better of the impulse. "You were go- ing of your own accord, see. Well, I'm telling you to go now! The door's open. left it so for you when came in. And I'm telling you, too, be- fore you leave that you'll do well not to come back. There's not room for both of us on this river any more, Har- riganr'
 The riverman's eyes shifted. Fur lively they fitted from face to face in those rows of faces at the walls, But whatever he thought or hoped to find leeting flash of support or encourage ment-was hidden behind a common mask of astOnishment as blank as had been his own. They were waiting for his answer. He knew they were wait ipg for that as he crossed to the door And when he paused there, to turn in sudden sayagery, he realized that his tardiness had robbed him of his chance. It was too late to talk back then.
 You're tellin' me- he rasped out, land was goin'-sur-re! But things ar-re not yet finished between you and me, for Pm pr-romisin' you that I'll be back. I'm pr-romisin' you I'll be wid ye again. I'll be wid ye again, come spring!''
 He disappeared. And hard upon his going Steve wheeled and fronted those scores of silent men. His eyes leaped from point to point, as Harrigan's had craftily fitted. Briefly. crisply, he ac- companied the sweeping survey with voice that was loud enough for all Of them to hear.
 Big Louie! Fallon! Shayne! This is your chance to say so if you're go- ing 70 be lonesome, now that your song bird has flown. Speak up! came down tonight just to hear you talk"
 Nothing but an indistinguishab murmur answered him.. low growl that was neither argument nor eva sion. Rebellion was still a long way ahead for most of them. They had not yet had time to talk themselves to the pitch of open revolt. They had merely begun to listen to Harrig.n, whose dis eiples in dissatisfaction they were. And now in his absence they stirred uncomfortably under the gaze of him who remained. They dropped their heads and searched for matches. But Steve fSt the weight of unspoken thoughts when he, too, faced back in the doorway. This time there was no naming of names. He embraced the whole room when he spoke.
 'They tell me-" Steve continued. "that there's talk among you of no more work on the river when we've put this railroad through. I've heard it said that some of you think you are cutting the ground ort from under your feet

 PREPAREDNESS LEADER

Washington, Aug. 3-Gangway please, and make a place on yoSr Rand-McNally for the little town of Saco, Montana, with population Of 200, as per the 1910 census report.
 Saco has 32 of its male citizens serving with Company G, Second Montana infantry, now on the bor- der, and another stalwart son serving at Pekin, China, as a member of the United States Marine Corps.
 eff New York, Chicago and Phila- deuphia could be induced to give their sons in the same proprotion," writes w. D. Miller, editor of the Saco Independent to the Marine Corps officials in this city, 'we'd have some real preparedness"
 But in the meantime Saco wants to cast considerable shadow from its new place in the sun.

 4 In the dear, old long ago."
 It Is really pity for girl to look forward to marriage. not as the happy blending of the hearts and souls, but n release from work
 If she weds a young man who IS r5ch in love, but poor in purse, who must ea5n his bread by the sweat or his brow, she soon discovers that one cannot spend the live long day sn idler if the other must toll. If she IS a girl who has earned her living In factory. shop, or office, she learns that, by marriage, she has exchanged one system of work for another.
 A sensible young man talks all this over with his sweetheart at the time she accepts his heart and hand. The young girls who are under the i'm pression that they are to graduate from work by marrying find that they must fit themselves for different kind Of life from what they antici- pated. The young woman at the lace or ribbon counter who has had no harder task than measure off dainty goods, though she has grumbled url- ceasingly over her tasks finds as a wife, there's a nasty breakfast to pre- pare for her husband who must be on hand at his place of employment al seven sharp, which necessitates her rising at six. Every day brings It's own round of work with never an idle hour. There's no pay envelope con- taining money all her own and which she can use as she pleases when Sat urday night comes.
 True, many a husband hands his wife his envelope each week with it's contents untouched, but she knows there will be scarcely a dollar over when the weeks bills are settled
 The girl who has welded for love makes no complaint. She Is glad to smooth the path of the man she was fond enough of to marry. The girl who has entered wedlock to escape { work has an unhappy enough time of It. Each task Is set about grudgingly. Discontent eats up whatever cheer fulness there might have been in her nature. She is disappointed at the way things have turned out and takes no pains to disguise her annoyance.
 It does not take the average man long to discover the wife he has tied hfmeelf to, to slave to support to the end ~~ his days and his temper is none the better for the unfortunate revelation They do not pull together. She becomes irritable, ne becomes cross. Love fades away-and mutual respect follows close on its heels. The home is not one of peace or content ment for the man: he finds more con- gcnfality with the comrades of his single days at the corner cafe. She finds solace as best she can.
 Life would brighten for both if they could be induced to have an under tsanding and correct their errors ere it Is too late. A wife could revolution ize everything at once, if she met her husband at his home coming, with a kiss. asking earnestly that they begin Ill over again to love, i.onor, work for, md respect each other. Work for those whom one loves is sweet Mar ried life is unhappy or happy just as you will 1t.

BEGIN HOT WAITER
 DRENlMING IF YOU
 DON'T FEEL RIGHT
Says glass of hot water with phosphate before breakfast
 washes out poisons.

If you wake up with bad taste, bad breath and tongue is coated; if your head is dull or aching; if what you eat sours and forms gas and acid in stomach, or you are bilious, consti- pated, nervous, sallow and can't get feeling just right, begin inside bathing. Drink before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with g. teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in it. This will flush the poisons and toxins from stomach. liver, kidneys and bowels and cleanse. sweeten and purify the entire alimen- tary tract Do your inside bathing immediately upon arising in the morn ing to wash out of the system all the previous days poisonous waste, gases and sour bile before putting more food into the stomach.
 To feel like young folks feel; like you felt before your blood, nerves and muscles became loaded with body inn purities, get from your pharmacist a quarter pound of limestone phosphate which Is inexpensive and almost taste less, except for a sourish twinge which it not unpleasant
 Just as soap and hot water act on the skin, cleansing, sweetening and freshening, so hot water and lime stone phosphate act on the stomach liver, kidneys and bowels. Men and women who are usually constipated bilious, headaehy or have any stomach disorder, should begin this inside bathing before breakfast. They are assured they will become real cranks on the subject shortly.

 Most old people must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suffer from constipation. The condi- ton is perfectly natural. It is just as natural as it is for old people to walk slowly. For age is never So active as youth The muscles are less elastic. And the bowels are muscles.
 So all old people need Cascarets. One might as well refuse to aid weak eyes with glasses as to neglect this gentle aid to weak bowels. The bow- elss must be kept active. This is inn portant at all ages, but never so much as at fifty.
 Age is not time for harsh physics Youth may occasionally whip the bow els into activity. But a lash can't be used every day. What the bowels of the old need is 8 gentle and natural tonic. One that can be constantly used without harm. The only such tonic is Cascarets, and they cost only 10 cents per box at any drug store. They work while you sleep.

Several persons have stated that they could pick up a team which would play circles around the Bear Cat aggregation. If this be true Manager Mills wishes to state that he will put his band of basket shooters against any team that Taft vile can produce, of course the first team is excepted. He will play for fun, money or marbles and will place a side bet that there isn't a team that can put one over on the Bear Cats.
