 Suddenly Blogson called:

 Jobson turned without slackening his speed any more than he could help, for he knew that if he didn't catch that train it would go without him, and Jobson took nothing in life more serious than he did catching trains

 So, the second day following, a fed eral health officer accompanied the schoolteacher on the ride into Hind- man. In sense, the surgeon went armed, but not with rifle and ammuni- tion. A packhorse bore his arms-a very ordinary looking box containing field laboratory especially designed for emergency war against typhoid.

When the kidneys no longer pour forth waste, uremic poi soning occurs, and the person dies and the cause is often given as heart dis ease or disease of brain or lungs.
 It is good insurance against such a risk to send 10 cents for a large trial package of "Anuric"-the latest dis. covery of Dr. Pierce Also send a sample of your water. This will be examined without charge by expert chemists at pr. Pierce's Invalids' Ho- tel, Buffalo, N.
