Folk We Touch in Passing
TOMORROW.
By JULIA CHANDLER.

Through innumerable unwise moves
The Mans business was in such a h7 :
rtble mess that there seemed no extr' a
ton from 1t.
He sat alone in his ONCE at the close
of soft spring day so deep In de-
spondency that he did not know he -s
accompanied until in his retrospe We
travelling he recognized the still lins' ng
presence of Today.
What a loathsome creature you >"
said The Man 10 his associate.
Il am exactly the sort OF thing 'ou
made me-" came the reproachful n .yly.
And" went on the dropping presence
sadly. eff you'll just look out of that
open window toward the sky you'll see
that I'm fast sailing down the West
into oblivion. Verify. within the hour ]

That" said The Man after a long
silence. lis a good suggestion. Will
die with you. l have made a mess OF my
life and most OF all of you. You were
good to me at dawn. Now that the
twilight gathers ] can see how very good
to me you were, and that the course you
have run has been all my own fault
have ruined you. We viii 60 out to-
gether"
So, according to his abrupt decision.
The Man began putting his affairs IN
order.
Make haste" urged Today. The
evening shadows are lengthening. II you
are going to die with me you will have
to hurry for ] cannot wait for any man. "
whereupon The Man made more fever
ish haste.
Il am getting very weak am dying, ="
whispered Today to The Man who had
unworthiIy companIoned him from the
rising to the setting OF the sun.
Just a moment" hesitsted The Man.
And in that hesitant moment there
came into the radius of his conscious
ness a strange new impression. At first
II seemed a dawning radiance some
where in the distance. Then from out
the center OF the radiance there came
TO the ears of The Man a sound.
There is always Tomorrow and the
chance II offers to repair the mistakes
of Today" came the words clearly to The
Man as he stood with revolver leveled
at his head, ready to follow the trail OF
Today into the Great Unknown.
"Who are you. and what do you mean
! by intruding in such a moment" he de-
| manded GROSSLY.
"I am Tomorrow" came the answer In
a voice as sweet as that OF Siren.
Whereupon The Man. Erasping at the
thought the tone held out. lowered hi'

HOROSCOPE.
Monday, May Z, 1917.

Astrologers read this as a most un-
fortunate day. The sun, Jupiter, Venus.
and Uranus are all in evil aspect. while
Mercury and Saturn are friendly.
Under this rule there is likely to be
much mental depression and uncertainty.
1t Is wise to follow routine work and
seek amusement.
This is a most unfavorable planetary
sway under which to seek employment,
preferment or even friendly aid or sym
pathy.
The aspect is believed to make men in
places of power exceedingly headstrong
and self-willed. Warning is given that
the planetary rule encourages dangerous
egotism and a domineering spirit likely
to array enemies against one.
Business deals of Importance should be
postponed, as they will be disappointing
under this direction of the stars. which
may promise success that will surely be
followed by disappointment.
This is not an auspicious planetary gov
ernment for actors or for theatrical
managers. who may expect a period of
public indifference 70 be followed by great
prosperity.
Honors for people OF the stage, who
will serve in new activities, are promised
by the seers.
Although Today has a menace for most
vocations, editors and writer's will 'bene-
ut, the seers declare.
Railroads and railroad building appear
to be much in the foreground among
recent prophecies. Fortunes for Americans
who will help Russia solve transporta-
tion problems are predicted and Chicago
capitalists should be especially lucky.
|. Again a return to simpler modes OF
life is prophesied for Americans. Venus
Is read as encouraging plain clothing
and extreme severity in coiffure.
A revolt against taxation on the part
Of Socialists or labor leaders in the
United States is foreshadowed for the
summer.
While President Wilson's stars augur
access OF popularity in most quarters
he may expect to fight secret as well as
public foes In the next few months.
Persons whose birthdate 1t Is may have
many business and domestic anxieties in
the coming year. '-
Children born on this day may be too
artistic to succeed in business. Girls
probably will marry happily. Both boys
and girlA HIll have many friends.

MEAT INJURIOUS
TO THE KIDNEYS
Take a tablespoonful of Salts if
Back hurts or Bladder
bothers.

We are nation of meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says
well-known authority, who warns us
to be constantly on guard against kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps Of lead, and you have sting
ing pains In the back or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, or the blad-
der is irritable, obliging you to seek
relief during the night; when you have
severe headaches, nervous and dizzy
spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or
rheumatism in bad weather, get fr N
your pharmacist about four ounces Of
Jad Salts; take tablespoonful in a
glass OF water before breakfast each
morning and in few days your kid
neys will act fine. This famous salts
Is made from the acid OF grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with lithia, and
has been used for generations to flush
and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so II is no
longer o source of irritation, thus end
ing urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful efferves.
cent Whitewater drink, and nobody
can make mistake by taking little
occasionally to keep the kidneys clean

EASY TO DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
You can Bring Back Color and
Lustre with Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell,
because it's done so naturally, so even
ly. Preparing this mixture, though,
at home Is mussy and troublesome.
For so cents you can buy at any drug
store the ready-to-use preparation, i'm
proved by the addition Of other ingre-
dients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at time. By morning
all gray hair disappears, and, after an
other application or two, your hair be-
comes beautifully darkened, glossy
and luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace,
is a sign of old age, and as we all de-
sire youthful and attractive appear
ance, get busy at once with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound and look
years younger. This ready-to-use pre-
paration is a delightful toilet requisite
and not medicine. 1t is not intended
for the cure, mitigation or prevention
Of disease.

Tells of Great System.

A young man, but veteran In the
service, trained under four treasurers
OF the United States, Frank J. F.
Thiel, the deputy assistant treasurer,
who has the faculty of doing several
things at the same time, told with no
little pride the story Of this banking
system.
"The treasurer, besides receiving
and disbursing the public moneys de-
posted IN the treasury, subtreasurles
and bank repositories, is redemption
agent for all banknotes; trustee for
bonds held by the government; is Gus.
todian of revenues and trust funds
consisting of $2,222, ,S37 ,G25 in gold and
$780, 1873, 500. in silver; pays the inter-
est on the national debt, and attends
to various other important duties.
"Ehat people may understand the
magnitude of our banking, clearing
and redemption business, | will state
that 1t received during the past fiscal
year the national income of nearly
S7S0,000,000, and paid out nearly $725,-
000,000-the heaviest items being
$164,O00,0O0 for the military establish
ment, $155,000,000 for the navy, $780,
100000 for pensions, and $73,000,000
for the maintenance of the treasury
department.
Besides this it had the accounts of
transactions amounting to $5S,000,000
in the public debt funds and the pay
ment of the interest on the public
debt, which is now $971 ,562 500.
ut is the duty of the treasury bank
to redeem all unserviceable bills and
to supply the country with coins and
bills of the denominations needed for
current USE" he continued. "Thus,
where the price of bread was advanced
from nickel to 6 cents there was a
large local demand for pennies.
Movies create call for nickels and
dimes. The holiday season is invari-
ably accompanied with requests for
gold pieces and new bills for Christ
mas.
"Any one can go to the treasury or
subtreasuries and request new money
for old or an exchange Of bills for
some other denomination but most of
these requests come through banks
which need different bills or coins for
their own purposes, or who are re-
deeming bills no longer fit for circula-
ton. = !
Notes In Eleven Denominations.
'The treasury issues notes in IL de-
nominations, from 81 to $4,000, Of
the various kinds of money which the
country uses-silver certificates, gold
certificates, treasury, legal tender, fed
eral reserve and federal reserve bank
notes-no two of which, by the way,
have exactly the same properties.
"These notes are engraved on spe-
cial paper made by private firm by
Its secret process. Sheets made from
this paper are sent to the bureau of
engraving and printing, where they are
engraved, numbered, counted and
packed at the rate of 1,250000 day,
and a cost of about cent and third
apiece. Thence they are sent to the
treasury, where they are placed in the
vaults and become an added respon-
slbillty for the treasurer, who main
tains reserve stock of $400, 100000 to
S50O,000,000, from which to meet the
daily demands of subtreasuries and
25,000 banks throughout the country"
