It has been estimated that 80 per
cent of the people of this country are
suffering from Indigestion, in a more or
less serious form. The worst feature of
it is that the majority of these are not
doing anything to stop it. Every day
that this goes on means an additional
weakening of some vital organ, for
there is practically no fataldisease that
does not start originally from some form
Of indigestion. -
If you have heartburn, sick head
ache, languor, sour stomach, nausea,
giddiness, bad, breath, melancholy,
sleeplessness, impatience or nervous

MORE STRENGTH FOR
FEEBLE old PEOPLE

If all the old people in Americas re
allied what Vinol will do for them, we
would not be able to get enough of it
to supply the demand. We quote from
recent letter received from Mrs. A.
f. Carson of Kingston, N. Y.
She says:-"I am SO years of age,
end had been ailing for long time
with indigestion. / got rundown, was
weak, dizzy and could not sleep at
night. l consulted two doctors who
said l had hardening of the arteries
and at my age could not expect to be
strong again. My daughter would
give me no peace until tried Vinol
as it had done SO much for her. /
have taken five bottles and my health
and strength have come back, so / am
able to do all the homework for my
family of four, and l am recommend
ing VinoI to all my friends"
The reason Vinol is so beneficial to
old people is because it contains the
very elements needed to replace de-
clining strength with renewed vigor
viz: the medicinal elements of fresh
cod liver without oil, peptonate Of
iron, beef peptone, and a mild tonic
wine. Hooks Pharmacy.

Trouble For
The Lovers

ATLANTA, Ca, April 6.-What are
the working girls of Atlanta going to
do this summer when their sweet
hearts call in the evening? OF course
they have no place in their boarding
houses to receive company. and it's
too hot in the motion picture shows
for counting, and the trolley cars and
streets are no place to have good
time. What is the matter with the
parks?" one is quick to ask. Here's
the answer and the real point to this

a delicious brown and this with pickle,
lightbread and other toothsome dain-
ties were placed on the long table
provided for the occasion. Such a
feast!
Schley and Taylor joined hands in
making it festive occasion that will
be long remembered.

COON. 1t was the luck Of the temple,
and the superstitious priests, believ-
ing firmly in its magic power, were
willing to 60 to extremes to recover
what they believed to be the life and
soul Of their temple. This story, fan
tastic as it is, is not by any means
beyond the bounds Of reason. Just
such tales as this have been related
of real, existing jewels. The famous
Kohinoor was believed by it's original
possessors to have magic properties.

little while you forget about the twelve
hundred or the ten thousand. Those details
don't count up there. Do you see that?'
ayes, Don."
"The trouble with your father, and the
trouble with you, and the trouble with me,
until little while ago, is that we don't
get out here in the park enough where the
stars can be seen. I'm pretty sure, if I'd
been sitting here with your father, he'd
have felt different
She was doing as he babe her and keep
ing her eyes raised. She saw the steady
stars and the twinkling stars and the
vast purple depths. So, when she felt his
arm about her, that did not seem strange.
ats up there we'll be living most of
the time, he was saying.
ayes, Dom"
"And that's all free. The poorer you
are, the freer it is. And that's true of
lot of things. You've no idea the things
you can get here in New York if you
haven't too much money. Your father
said that if you don't have cash you go
without, when as a matter of fact it's
when you have cash you go without"
She lowered her eyes to his. What
he was saying sounded topsy-turvy.
dts fact, he ran on. "Why, you can
get hungry if you don't have too much
money; and honest, I've had better
things to eat this summer, because of
that, than l ever had in my life. Then,
if you don't have too much money, you
can work. 1t sounds strange to say there's
any fun in that, but there is. And want
to get you into the game, Frances. You're
going to like it. Farnsworth is going to
let me sell next month. It's like making
the varsity. I'm going to have salary
and commission, so you see it will be
partly personal fight. And you can help
me. Why, the very things we were plan
ming to get done with before we married
are the very things that are worth while.
We can stand shoulder to shoulder now
and play the game together. You can
have part of the fun"
She thrilled with the magic of his voice,
but his words were quite meaningless.
"You aren't looking at the stars" he
reminded her. She looked up again.
49, he said, there's no sense in wait
ing any longer, is there? The sooner we're
married, the sooner we can begin. If we're
married tomorrow, we'll have almost two
weeks in the mountains. And then"
SHE appeared frightened.
ooh, Don, we've couldn't get mar
ried like that, anyway"
"Why not?" he demanded.
"It-it isn't possible" '.'
Certainly it's possible.
She shook her head.
mo, no. IL couldn't. Oh, Don,
you'll have to give me time to think"
"There isn't time" he frowned.
ave must take time. I'm-I'm afraid.
Afraid of what?'
afraid of myself" she answered
quickly. afraid of dad. Oh, I'm afraid
of every one."
"Of me?" He took her hand.
"When you speak of tomorrow am,
she admitted. "While you were talking,
there were moments when-when l could
do as you wish. But they didn't last"
"That's because you didn't keep your
eyes on the stars he assured her gently
"And that's what I'm afraid of-that
