GOOD SUGGESTION.

Maj. Frederick Palmer, head of
the military press bureau in Paris,
was visited at his office in the Rue
Ste Anne the other day by an old
friend.
The friend said from his cloud of
tobacco smoke:
Palmer, / want to do my-hic-
bit. l want to be in at the finish of
the Hun. I've got alcoholic sore
throat, tobacco heart and a hard
ened liver. 1t would be difficult for
me, Pm afraid, to give up my soft
habits and live in the cold mud OF
the trenches. Still, Palmer, I'm de-
termined to do my bit. There's sure
ly some billet | could fill with honor.
Well, what-hic-is it?

that you 60 to the front as tank"

For centuries GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil has been a standard household remedy for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach trouble, and all diseases connected with the urinary organs. The kidneys and blad- der are the most important organs of the body. They are the filters, the purifiers of your blood. If the poisons which enter your system through the blood and stom- ach are not entirely thrown out by the kidneys and bladder, you are doomed.
 Weariness, sleeplessness, nervousness, despondency, backache, stomach trouble, headache, pain in loins and lower abdo- men, gall stones, gravel, difficulty when urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu- matism, sciatica and umbago, all warn you to look after your kidneys and bladder All these indicate some weakness of the kidneys or other organs or that the enemy microbes which are always present in your system have attacked your weak spots. GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules are what you need.

 With a yell of terror the fellow bounded out of the door and tore along the road and through The Cor ners at speed never before equaled in that locality by a knight of the road.
 Prince lost little time in recovering his footing and again getting on the trail of the fleeing tramp. But he was soon paying the fellow past the black smith shop and the store.

 He wouldn't, hey2" said the man hoarsely. licking his fingers of the last crumbs of his lunch. An suppose feller ain't got no Sunday suit?"
 "Why then, s'pose Prince wouldn't ever let you come into our yard-if he was loose"
 Don't let him loose now, little girl" said the fellow. getting up hurriedly and eyeing the angry dog askance.
 "Oh, no. sir. We're going visiting up the road, Come away, Prince. won't let him touch you" she assured the man.
 The latter seemed rather doubtful of her ability to hold the dog long, and he hobbled away towards the school house.
 Carolyn May had very pleasant call-Freda's mother even approved of Prince-and it was an hour before the two started for home In sight of the school house Prince gave evidence again of excitement.
 'I wonder what Is the matter with you now" Carolyn May began. when suddenly she sighted what had evi- dently so disturbed the dog.
 A man was crouching under one of the schoolhouse windows. bobbing ID now and then to peer in. It was the man whom they had previously seen beside the road.
 Flush, Prince!" whispered little Carolyn May. holding the dog by the collar.
 She, too, could see through the open window. Miss Minnie was still at her desk She had finished correcting the pupils papers. Now she had her bag open and was counting the money Mir. Brady had given her.
 "O-o-oh !" breathed Carolyn May. clirging to the eager dogs collar.
 The man at the window suddenly left his position and slipped around to the door. In a moment he appeared in the schoolroom before the startled teacher
 Miss Minnie screamed. The man. with rough threat, darted forward to seize her purse.
 Just then Carolyn May unsnapped the leash from Princes collar and let him go.
 "Save Miss Minnie. Princey" she cried after the charging dog.
 Prince did not trouble about the door. The open window, through which the tramp had spied upon the

The best of these was the Andrews
