"Only q dream!' Bruce Schuyler
drowsily murmured the words and
turned to resume strangely disturbed
slu1nber. He smiled unconsciously.
Drifting through his brain was the de-
parting filament of rapt vision. He
seemed to have opened his eyes to view
limned in the doorway against the bril-
liant outside sunshine, dainty fairy
like creature with earnest, peering
eyes and lovely auburn hair. He
closed his eyes, but the sharp barking
of his dog tied to tree outside warned
him, as it always did, of a visitor or
an intruder.
Someone, of course, not the girl
that was of the unreal. He arose and
went to the door. There was faithful
Gyp, not Juggling at his chain as he
usually did when predatory or penni-
less tramps passed by, but his eyes
fixed towards the timber.
1T was real-it was no dream ~
abruptly uttered Bruce.
He stood spellbound. Running like a
frightened schoolgirl, her twinkling
feet seeming scarcely to touch the
ground, was the girl of his vision. She
did not look behind her and vanished
completely amid screen Of deep
shrubbery.
II declare!' exclaimed Bruce, and
his senses were all awake now. His
solitude, passing vacation of month
in the old woodland cabin, was rarely
invaded. And nova girl! fairy
who had looked in and fled. Where
foe?
Bruce slowly passed into the cabin.
AS he did so he became sensible of a
subtle, delicate perfume that filled
the air. 1t was exclusive, it suggested
the boudoir of wealth and luxury. It
permeated the atmosphere deliciously.
Of course, it was a reminder of the
strange visitor. Bruce went outside
again, sat down on the old bench be-
side the doorstep and was thoughtful
-observant, too, as he noticed Gyp
shifting and evidently noting the tinge
of perfume in the air.
The town was twelve miles distant,
the nearest habitation half that dis
lance. Then whence the visitor!

Diet. Exercise or Death !

An eminent medical authority writes
that most OF our city folks die Of thick
cning OF the arteries or Of kidney dis
ease. The kidneys become cloggcd and
do not filter the posons from the blood,
md one trouble follows another, high
blood pressure damages the heart, arteries
and kidneys. Usually its danger signals
are backache, pain here or there, swollen
feet or ankles, rheumatic twingcs or
spots appearing before the eyes.
"The very best remedy is this: Eat
meat but once a day, or not at all. Plenty
of outdoor exercise, and drink pure
water frequently. Before meals take q
little Anuric, the great uric acid neu-
trailer that is easily obtained at the
drug store. When you have dizziness,
chills or sweating, worry, or dragging
pains in back, try this wonderful enemy
to uric acid, which DR.. Pierce of Buffalo,
N. Y, discovered and named Anuric.
Anuric, more potent than lithia, dissolves
uric acid as hot water does sugar."

SHE WANTS A DIVORCE
Wife of Man Charged With White
Slavery Files Petition.

Henry D. Hamilton, tried on a
white slave" charge in the district
court of Shawnee county in the midst
of his honeymoon, is now the defend
ant in a divorce action brought by his
wife. She filed the petition in the
district court late Thursday afternoon,
alleging that Hamilton married her
primarily for the purpose of helping
him out in the white slave case
brought at the instance of Mrs Stella
Azlein- Mr.. and Mrs. Hamilton, wild
over and widow, both parents of chill
dren, were married in April of last
year, and Hamilton was tried on the
white slave charge last fall.
Mrs Hamilton says they had been
married only short time when her
husband began to boast of his prestige
with other women. She charges that
he frequently came home in a drunken
condition and abused her; also that
he charged her with intimacy witt:
other men. She left him il, October
but in December returned upon his
premise to treat her better after they
moved from Oakland to a new homo
at 1925 Quincy street. That arrange
ment lasted until their first wedding
anniversary, Mrs. Hamilton says
which he celebrated by striking and
kicking her.
Hamilton is credited with being the
owner of considerable property. Mrs.
Hamilton asks for a divorce, the res
toration oil her former name, Mary
NJ. Fair, and alimony.

ilton was dismissed after the iury

It ID almost amusing to hear peo-
pie offering seed, or suggesting
some fine brands Of seeds to their
neighbors for the fall and winter
garden. It appears amusing because
Of the suddenness Of the thing; but
before this war ends, we are afraid
it will be necessary to have gardens
in the lawns and front yards. 1t is
strictly up to America to feed the
Allies, and the food stuff must come
from the farms, which means that
the small land owner and the city
and town people must feed them
selves out of their own gardens. War
gardens will soon be as common as
they are useful; the novelty will
soon be displaced by stern reality.

In France and Belgium, although
sharp local engagements are under

in the Champagne were driven back.
Elsewhere from the coast to St.

boy or man is fright on the job" It
is a matter of considerable pride
and satisfaction to any American to
feel and know that the institutions
Of learning in his country are the
equal, if not superior to those of any
country in the world. Nothing has
contributed more to the advance
ment of the South, since the war,
than the wonderful development Of
the educational system Of the differ

place with the states in the matter Of
schools, and is spending more money
each year for education.
