Revelations of a Wife

Look not on the casserole when 1t

proverbs in my immediate set. Too

Dick rose stiffly, walked slowly
around to my side of the table, and
gravely tapped my head in imitation
of phrenologist.
Absolute depression where the
bump called sense of humor' ought to
be. Too bad! Pretty creature, too.

Then he bent and kissed me. Don't

He piled a liberal portion on my
plate and helped himself as generous

ignoring or not noticing that scarce

For l was fast lapsing into one of
the moods which my little mother
used to call my morbid streaks" and
which she has vainly tried to cure

didn't like my cooking. He was only

of his present. Probably he soon
would find me wanting in other things.

When brought on the baked apples

Makes a Cain

Feels Fine Now
Well known Ric h non
Woman Tells How Tanlac
Built up Hef Health.

When Miss Minnie Romberg, 1924
South Tenth street, this city, tried
Tanlac a few weeks ago she says she
felt weak all the time and was losing
flesh rapidly Tanlac, she says, has
made her a great deal stronger and
she has gained nine pounds since she
started taking it.
II was so nervous that l couldn't
sleep soundly at night and as result
! Just felt tired out all the time" Miss
Romberg said MY stomach was in
bad shape, too None of my food
seemed to be digested right and kept
losing weight. There were lots of
foods | couldn't eat 4 all because of
the bad after effects.
''My sister heard Tanlac recommend
ed so highly that she bought bottle
and brought it home to me. 1t helped
me so much that l kept on taking it
and now I've taken six bottles in all.
1t has put my stomach back in good
shape. / eat better and have gained
nine pounds. I'm feeling fine now.
Il know Tanlac helped me a great
deal and want others to know about
such medicine"
When Richmond people, your own
friends and neighbors, indorse Tanlac
you know 1t is all right. Tanlac is
vegetable tonic especially designed to
build up run down systems. 1t has
helped thousands of run down men
and women Why not you? You can
get Tanlac at any good drug store.

me you might try to get over your
prejudices, especially when l tell you
that l am very fond of cats and like
to see them around"
Dicky's voice held note Of appeal.
but chose to ignore it. Ny particu-
lar little devil must have sat at my
elbow
II am sorry," said coldly, "but real
ly, do. not see why it is any more in
cumbent on me to try to overcome my
very real aversion to cats than it is
on you to try to do without their
society"
VERY we'll. II you feel that way
about it, there is nothing more to be
said"
Dicky slammed the living room door
behind him to emphasize his words
and ran down the steps. His soft hat
was pulled down to his eyebrows and
any one who ran might read that he
was in rage.
Back in the living room, huddled up
in the big chair which is the chief
pride of the woman who rents us the
furnished apartment, sat. as angry
as Dick, and heartsick besides. Our
first quarrel had come!
But the cat remained. What was /
to do with her?

idea took charge. From that minute
they were a new band, with a war-cry
Of their own.
ITO Khinjan!" they howled, scat

lah came out to glare at them and tug
his beard and wonder what possessed
them.

Lead us to Khinjan!"

throwing up both arms in sort of
double apostolic blessing, and then
motioning as If he threw them the
reins and leave to gallop. They roar
ed back at him like the sea under the
whip of a gaining wind. And Ismail
disappeared among them, leaving
King alone. Then the mullahs eyes
fell on King and he beckoned him.
King went up with an effort, for he
ached yet from his struggle Of the
night before. Up there by the ashes
Of the fire the mullah showed him a
letter he had crumpled in his first.

in Arabic, which all mullahs are sup

Salute Them

Forty per cent of the men selected for nation
al service leave for Camp Taylor next Friday.
Citizens speed them their way with the
best wishes Of the community! Let them know
that back of them stands the undivided support
of Richmond
This is the first time in the city's history that
men of military age, selected by the government,
have been called away. 1t is epochal in it's signif-
icance.
Arrangements under way to escort them
through the heart of the city to the station.
This is fitting and proper course All hon.
ors are due them for their new vocation. Let the
whole city turn out and cheer them from the
court house where they assemble to the Pennsyl-
vania station where they depart.
They are leaving us as citizens and soldiers.
THEY are sons brothers and friends They are
fighting vigorously in our behalf for the eradica-
ton of despotism.

That was all, but the fire in the
mullahs eyes showed that he thought
it was enough He did not doubt that
once he should have his extra four
thousand in the caves Khinjan would
be his; and he said so.
''Khinjan is mine!" he growled. 'In.
dia is mine!"
And King did not answer him. He
did not believe Yasmini would be fool
enough to trust herself in any bargain
with Muhammad Amin. Yet he could
see no alternative as yet. He could
only be still and be glad he had set
the camp moving and so. had forced
the mullah's hand.
"The old fatalist would have sus-
pected her answer otherwise" he told
himself, for he knew that he himself
suspected 1t.
While he and the mullah watched
the tents began to fall and the wo-
men labored to roll them. TIL men
began firing their rifles, and within
the hour enough ammunition had been
squandered to have fought a good
sized skirmish; but the mullah did
not mind. for he had Khinjan Caves in
view, and none knew better than he
what vast store of cartridges and
dynamite was piled in there. He let
them waste.
Watching his opportunity, King
slipped down the ramp and into the
crowd, while the mullah was busy
with personal belongings in the cave.
King left his own belongings to the
fates, or to any thief who should care
to steal them. He was safe from the
mullah in the midst of his nearly
eighty men, who half believed him
sending from the skies.
1--WE see! We see!" they yelled and
danced around him.
Before ever the mullah gave an or
der they got under way and started
climbing the steep valley wall The
mullah on his brown mule thrust for
ward, trying to get in the lead, and
King and his men hung back, to keep
at distance from him. 1t was when
the mullah had reached the top of
the slope and was not far from being
in the lead that Ismail appeared again
leading Kings horse, that he had
found in possession of another man.
That did not look like enmity or
treachery. King mounted and thanked
him. Ismail wiped his knife, that had
blood on it, and stuck his tongue
through his teeth, which did not look
like treachery either. Yet the Afridi
could not be got to say word
Two or three miles along the top of
the escarpment the mullah sent back
word that he wanted the hakim to
be beside him. Doubtless he had look
ed back and had seen King on the
horse, head and shoulders above the
baggage.
But Kings men treated the messen-
ger with open scorn and sent him
packing.

other hakim! Be thou his hakim!

how to use knifei"

Valparaiso is best known as school where a
poor man or woman had an enequalled chance to
meet the cost of schooling with small outlay of
money.
The school attained distinction throughout
the world to house, feed and instruct at mini
mum cost to students. Economists, writer's and
school men came from far and near to study the
system Brown applied at Valparaiso.
Some may scott at Browns work, underrat-
ing his capability as an educator and insisting
that he offered cheap, but poor education"
Thousands of boys and girls in the United
States would receive no education if it were not
for colleges and universities where cheap educa-
ton" can be had. These institutions are doing
heroic work in the educational world, fighting
against financial odds that would stagger bust
ness man, and withal courageously and doggedly
maintaining a scholastic standard that is sur
prising when one compares the results with the
meager equipment.
Not all of us can go to the big universities
where the tuition alone often is more than the
entire annual expenses at a small school, The
little college is doing patriotic duty OF the high
est order when it keeps open it's doors and well
comes the boys and girls who have little money,
but big ambition to learn.
In this field President Brown undoubtedly
was supreme He had studied the problem and
solved all it's intricacies. The young students at
Valparaiso received one hundred cents for every
dollar they invested in their education.
There are in this community many persons
who have attended Valparaiso. To them DR..
Brown was an Illuminating educator and adviser.
Indiana lost one Of its famous and edu-
cation one of it's sterling champions when DR..
Brown died.

THE PoISONS IN COAL GAS
Many Are Known, But There Is One
Constituent That Is a Puzzle
TO Scientists.

The poisonous properties of coal gas
are generally attributed to its content
Of carbonic oxide. especially as no
other substance of known poisonous
properties has been found in It, and
patients suffering from coal gas poison
Ing show the symptoms associated
with the inhalation of carbonic oxide,
including the peculiar bright red color
OF the blood. From experiments made
by DR.. Won Vahleh, at Halle, It seems
probable that we must revise this
view, for on making experiments with
frogs, animals particularly resistant to
carbOnic oxide, It was found that they
were poisoned far more rapidly by coal
gas than by the corresponding amount
Of the oxide. Other experiments with
dogs showed that the poisonous effect
Of coal gas was twice or three times
as. great as that of the carbonic oxide
1t contained. Evidently there is some
other constituent of coal gas which is
poisonous, though what it is cannot
yet be stated. Merely removing the
carbonic oxide from coal gas will not
suffice to render 1t poisonous
