he wishes me to tell the whole
story. He went to Cuba and flung in
mis- lot with the rebels. He became
disgusted with their means and meth.
DDS, obtained a pardon from General
Weyler, and took up his residence in
santiago. The outbreak of the war
surprised him there. He knew that
santiago would fail, and he had been
warned that he would receive short
shrift at the hands Of our people.
He longed for death, but he had two
things that kept alive the desire for
life. One was his child, the other the
desire for vindication, which had be-
come monOmania. He tried to escape
into the jungle. He saw that it was
hopeless.
HE was hiding in a little hut when
ne heard footsteps. An American SOL
der, who had strayed from his COM
pany, was coming into the clearing. At
that monsnt stray bullet caught him
in the head, killing him instantly.
Hampton saw his chance. He took off
the dead mans clothing and put it on
he dressed the body in his own. He
knew that by this means he could pass
through the lines in the guise Of q
wounded man, until he had chance to
get rid of his uniform in the cabin of
some Cuban, who would be only too
well pleased to give him some rags in
exchange for it. And, leaving his
money and papers on the dead man, he
knew that he left his identity behind,
for the bullet had destroyed the fea-
lures.
"There is the child-but Hampton
knew that he could take her no fur
Their. With the Americans she would
receive food-which he had nOt-and
shelter and protection. Afterward he
would regain her. He lurked in the
bushes until he saw Captain Wallace
appear, watched him, trusted him, and
went away.
"He learned of the child's adoption
and for years he haunted her home

strained by the realization that, till hi

"Put my name-back on the mess

Through his tears Mark was con-
scious that the interminable fumbling
outside the cave had ceased. As
Hampton fell back there came the sud-
den crack Of revolver shot.

trance as they raised their heads. Mark

Weekly Health Talks
What Doctor Pierce Has
Done for Humanity
BY DOCTOR GRIPS.

It has always seemed to me that DIR.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, should be placed
near the top when list of Americas
great benefactors is written. He studied
and conquered human diseases to de-
gree that few realize. Whenever he found
a remedy that overcame disease, he at
once announced 1t in the newspapers and
told where it could be bought at small
price. He did not follow the usual custom
OF keeping the ingredients secret, SO that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name of
each root and herb he used. And so today
the names of Or. Pierce and his medicines
are widely known, and they stand for bet
ter health and better citizenship.
one of this great physicians most sue
cessful remedies is known as DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. These are little, sugar
coated pills, composed of Mayapple, leaves
OF aloe, root of jalap-things that Nature
grows in the ground. These Pellets are
safe because they move the bowels gently,
leaving no bad after-effects, as SO many
pills do. Very often they make person
who takes them feel like new man CT
woman, for they cleanse the intestines OF
hard, decayed and poisonous matter that
accumulates when one is costive. If you
are constipated, by all means 60 to your
druggist and get some of DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. They may prove to be
the very thing your system requires 10
make you well and happy.

KIDNEY TROUBLE OFTEN
CAUSES SERIOUS BACKACHE

When your back aches, and your blad-
der and kidneys seem to be disordered,
go to your nearest drug store and get a
bottle of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root. 1t
is a physicians prescription for ailments
of the kidneys and bladder.
1t has stood the test of years and has
a reputation for quickly and effectively
giving results in thousands of cases.
This preparation so very effective, has
been placed on sale everywhere. Get a
bottle, medium or large size, at your near
est druggist.
However, if you wish first to test this
preparation send ten cents to DR.. Kilmer
q Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for sample

If one feeds clover to cattle, the
sweepings and trash that accumulate
In the barn loft ought to be saved.
These sweepings are composed mostly
of shattered leaves and seeds, and are
better for poultry than the whole plant.
One should have barrel handy and
