Mrs. Sinclair Finds Wonderful
Remedy In Time to Avoid
Knife

Mrs. Sadie Sinclair OF 418 E.
Lake st. Minneapolis, suffered
from stomach arrangements for
more than six years. She became
Respondent and hopeless. She
feared she would have to undergo
an operation. Her complexion
suffered along with her gtnraal
health.
Then she discovered Mayr's
Wonderful Remedy and took a
course of treatment. The first
dose brought results. She wrote:
''Only one dose and I slept like
a log" And l felt relieved right
away. If l should need any more
medicine you may be sure will
send for it. It is a wonder one
can be rid of such conditions
without pain. And my complex
ion is clearing: they all speak
Of it was so yellow and brown
before"

permanent results for stomach

told the story of her lost comb and
again the king ordered that the
finder be rewarded.
"Take him, daughter. to the lake
of pearls and let him gather what
he can in five minutes. But do not
remain longer" said the king. "For
If you do, the Ogre of the Sea will
do you harm. We own the lake to-
gether, and each of us has a right
to gather what we can in five min
utes. but if you remain longer. your
greed will be sadly paid for"
Now Ole was so greedy he de-
cided to disobey the Kings orders.
81 will have chance of a life
time to get all the pearls I want"
said he to himself as he walked
along the bottom of the sea toward
the lake. 81 have a big bag under
my coat and one on my back. and
l am going to fill both. l am not
afraid of any Ogre. l mean to get
all the pearls in sight"
AS soon as he reached the spot
the boy began examining pearls in
to his pockets and bags. He filled
up both bags and even his hat, and
began to put them in his shoes,
when the mermaid begged him to
come away at once. for the five
minutes were almost past.
"No, indeed" laughed Ole, 81 am
having a picnic. l expect to take
home more pearls than the King
ever owned. l will have fine hous-

Just then a dark shadow shot
overhead and down through the wa
ter hurled narrow swordfish
with a huge head. Ole thrust his
knife at the Ogre, but it did no
harm, and the boy was thrust
through the shoulder by the Ogre's
sword
Then the big fish swan upward
and threw Ole on the shore. Here
he lay very still, but just as the sun
rose the Ogre came rushing by
again and spouted some water on
the lads form. 1t grew stiff and
dark and instead of there being any
boy. there was seen lying on the

A moment afterward the venera-
Die war-chief fell lifeless from his
pony. Deprived of their leader, the
Cheyennes became panic-stricken.
Laughing Bear attempted to rally
them, but he, too. was killed in
the midst of his harangue. Then
the Cheyennes fled from their foes
and scattered like covey Of
frightened quail. Most of them
were cut down before they reached
cover, and the few survivors gal
Hoped wildly across the plain with
the triumphant Pawnees in hot pur-
suit.
In the mean time the young
Sioux were retreating down the
middle of the stream. They had
lost their ponies at the first fierce
onslaught, and, realizing that they
could be of no further assistance to
their allies, they looked to their
own safety. Dropping into the
shallow water. they half swan
and half crawled until they gained
a sharp turn of the stream. Then

They feared that keen-eyed Pawnee
scouts would hurry along the edge
of the water to dispatch any
wounded foes who might attempt to
reach the timber. and they dared
not turn toward the shore.

reverentiy.
They heard the Pawnees whoop-
ing triumphan;ly, and their hearts
filled with wrath at the sound.
They believed that the Cheyenne
war party had been almost annihi-
lated, and they recalled the omi-
nous warning of Laughing Bear,
the medicine-man. However, the
lads had little tirle to think about
the fate of their allies. for their
own safety was far from assured

turned from the stream and passed
at some distance from them.
He may return; we must watch,
whispered White Otter.
When half the day had gone and
they saw nothing more of their foes
the Sioux began to take heart. They
hoped that, having failed to find
them along the stream. the Paw.
nees would conclude that they had
escaped with the little company of
Cheyenne survivors. The lads real
lied. however. that it would be fol-
ly to venture from concealment
before they were certain that their
enemies had withdrawn from the
vicinity. Besides, the unexpected
outcome of their alliance with the
Cheyennes had completely upset
their plans. They were undecided
as to just what to 10. The lack Of
ponies was serious handicap, and
still they saw no way of overcom,
ing it. At first they thought of fol
lowing their back trail in the hope
of finding the Cheyenne village and
securing new mounts They knew,
however. that even if they sue.
ceeded in reaching their allies the
delay might prove fatal to the sue
cess of their expedition against the
Pawnees. They determined, there
fore. to proceed toward the Pawnee
camp on foot. hoping to find an OPP
portunity of securing horses from
their foes. Having come to this
bold decision, the lads waited i'm,
patiently for dark and chance TO
leave their hiding place
Toward sunset they crept to the
edge of the plain and looked for the
Pawnees. They were nowhere in
sight, and the Sioux believed they
had gone. Still, they feared to
expose themselves. They watched
until night settled down, and then
they left the timber and hurried
away toward the north.
The lads trudged YEARLY through
the night, and at dawn they took
shelter in the bottom of a dried-ou
watercourse. They looked eagerly

and they knew that every moment
was precious. They followed the
stream until dawn, and then they
turned to the shore and concealed
themselves in dense thicket Of
willows.
CHAPTER XIII
Shortly after sunrise the Sioux
were greatly alarmed by the ap-
pearance of two Pawnees on the op-
posite shore. They stood at the
edge Of the timber a moment. and
then they turned and vanished in
to the shadows. AS they saw them
moving cautiously between the
trees few moments later the lads
became convinced that these war
riors were looking for them. Hav-
ing figured SO conspicuously in the
battle on the plain the day before,
they had little doubt that they
had been recognized as Sioux A.
ware of the bitter enmity between
the two tribes, they felt sure that
their foes would make every effort
to find them They believed that

and they saw little chance of es-
cape.
This thing is bad" whispered
Sun Bird. "The Pawnees have eyes
like the weasel"
"If they find us we will fight.
They will see that we are as brave
as our brothers, the Cheyennes."
declared White Otter.
Then they heard something ap-
preaching through the bushes. Fit
ting arrows to their bows, the lads
flattened themselves on the ground
and peered anXiously through
the underground. A Pawnee war
rior was making his way carefully
along the stream. He was walk
ing directly toward them, and the
Sioux aimed their arrows at his
heart. At that instant. however,
the Pawnee stopped and looked to-
ward the plain. The lads waited.
Then, having evidently seen some
thing significant, the hostile scout

about the plain for some sign OF
the great Pawnee camp. but their
search was fruitless. Farther to the
north they saw long line of trees,
and they believed it was the same
grove in which Painted Weasel had
located the hostile camp. They
strained their eyes trying to find
a trace of smoke against the sky.
but they saw nothing to suggest
that their foes were still in the
timber. A days journey to the
west were the foothills. The Sioux
looked upon them in silence. They
wondered whether the Pawnees
had gone that far Then Sun Bird
stopped to examine something at
his feet.
"See, here are pony tracks," he
cried.

this ravine," declared White Otter.
The foot prints were some days
old, and the lads were convinced
that they had been made by the
horse of one of the Cheyenne
scouts. In that event. it was evid-
ent that the trees to the norh
marked the original camp site de-
scribed by Painted Weasel. But
where were the Pawnees? The per-
picked Sioux turned to each other
for the answer.
"To know this thing we must go
to those trees and find the place
where our enemies camped. Then
we can follow their TRAIL" said
White Otter.
''It is what is in my heart" de-
clared Sun Bird. eve will wait
until dark. for it would be foolish
to walk over the plain in daylight"
Later in the day they saw a
heavy cloud of dust to the east. AS
they watched it an alarming pos
sibility flashed into their minds.
Perhaps it is the war party
that chased the Cheyennes. said
Sun Bird.
Fl am thinking about it. replied
White Otter.

THE MERMAlD's elFT-part Il

When Jarl rose above the waves
and stepped to the shore, it was
late at night. The moon shone on
the water. and in its light he could
see the boat rocking on the beach.
With a flying leap he gained the
boat, and was soon speeding on his
way home.
When he reached the cottage he
found his father in great grief, and
Ole full of false stories about Jarl.
The lad listened at the window and
heard Ole say that the younger son
had run away to fish early in the
day and not returned. Jarl threw
open the door and stepped into the
room.
1T is false, the story that Ole
told you, father" said Jarl. "He
sent me away to do the work you
set for him. did it and on my way
back visited the home of a mermaid
who gave me these pearls" and as
ne said this Jarl poured out on the
table his gallon of shimmering
gems.
The father was so delighted he
forgot to punish Ole, and Ole was
SO charmed that he did not beat
Jarl for telling on him. But in the
morning Ole made the lad give a
full account of his adventures.
We'll" said Ole, when Jarl had
finished his story, 81 mean to have
q hand in this myself"
So at noon he got in the boat, and
rowing to the rock on which the
mermaid had sat, MD behind a big
powder. In short time up came
the mermaid and began to comb
her long hair. Ole slipped up be-
hind her and when she laid her
comb down, grabbed it and ran a
short distance down the beach. The
mermaid, on discovering her loss,
set up again her mournful song and
Ole came running with the comb.
How glad l am to get it again."
exclaimed the mermaid. "That is

Ole did as he was told, and in a

1ours before. Again the mermaid

ing first toward one side and then
toward the other. and there were
lots of automobiles coming and go
ing. so that he was having an aw'
fully bad time.
1t was after his supper time. and
I'll venture he hadn't had any
thing to eat, either. The last saw
of him, he had darted into the alley
between 18th and 18th streets
and maybe he had to stay there all
night. He was only little rabbit
about half grown, and suspect
that the next time he wants to
come to the city. he will wait until
his father and mother can bring
him, don't you?

their tired ponies upon the. plain
The lads looked upon them with
covetous eyes. A few moments
later they saw a thin column of
smoke rising above the trees, and
they knew that the Pawnees in
tended to eat before resuming their
journey.
"It is good: they will not reach
the camp until the next sun. Per-
haps we will have a chance to cap

"That would be very foolish"
White Otter warned. "Then they

DESIGN ON DIME
 CALLED "FASCES"

Many a Latin dictionary has been taken down and dusted since the new series of dimes began to circulate, says the Chicago Tribune
 The disturbance is created by the laurel-wreathed bundle of sticks on the reverse side of the coin, which looks, people say, like vine that grew round a fagot of firewood in which the axe was left All this has created much discussion concerning just what the thing is.
 Here is the real, right information about it: If you are a true highbrow and cling to the Latin ways you will know it is a "fasces," and you will pronounce it ''fass-kase," to rhyme with "glass-case" If you speak the tongue that Shakespeare spoke, you call it "fass-eez,' to rhyme with glass trees" or something. The accent in each case is on the first syllable.
