S. J. Collins, Second Ave, says: I
was troubled a great deal with rheu-

back would ache severely and my kid
neys were all out of order. When
would bend over I could hardly
straighten again and I was troubled
with dizzy spells and headaches. l
tried different remedies but never
found anything that gave me relief

happen.

GIRL FOUND in
5000 mile HUNT
Mother Travels Many
Miles In Search
For Child
STOLEN BY FATHER

Some day. when s year old Nellie
Mae Strauss attains mature years. she
will tell the story Of woman who.
impelled by mother love. started out
to search the world" for the man
who had spirited away her daughter.
The story will begin with a4romance
in Alabama then a separation. d.
vorce. and the daughters disappear
ance. And then she will tell how the
mother recovered the child IN Chicago
after a quest Of 5000 miles.
"And the child" she will say, was
I. and the woman was my mother"
All this leads up to a recent noon.
when julius Strauss, clothing sales
man. emerged from the establishment
in Chicago where he is employed, to
partake Of luncheon at some nearby
cafe.
Well. he didn't get the luncheon.
For right at the door he was halted
by his divorced wife. now Mrs. Rich
ard T. Johnson. and Mr.. johnson. No
sooner had Mrs. Johnson set eyes
on Strauss than she cried:
snow we've got you. Where's my
baby grill"
A crowd collected. and Mr.. Strauss
protested, "There must be mistake"

Mrs. Johnson. conducted Mr.. Strauss
to the central detail station. where
Mrs. Johnson reiterated her charge
and declared she was prepared to
prosecute.
Mr.. Strauss, who Is remarked, then
admitted he had the child. Nellie Mae.
and a compromise was effected-that
Mrs. johnson would not prosecute and
he would return Nellie. He gave her
an address. and while Mrs. johnson
drove there in taxicab he remained
at the station.
An hour later she returned with
Nellie and Mr.. Strauss was released.
Mr.. and Mrs. johnson and the child
left at night for Ohio. to settle, as
Mrs. Johnson phrased it.. Tin a town
where he cannot again find me to kid

Mr.. and Mrs. Strauss were married
nine years ago at Birmingham. Ala.
About FIVE years later Mrs. Strauss
obtained divorce and custody Of the
child. In September. 1918, she was
married to Johnson and they estab-
lished home in Atlanta.
Eight months ago, according to Mrs.
Johnson's story to the police Strauss
visited them and asked leave to take
Nellie for an automobile ride. The re-
quest was granted. but Nellie did not
come back, and Mrs. Johnson could
obtain 10 trace Of either her or
Strauss.
Husband Aids Search.
She grieved so much Johnson finally
resigned his position. converted all his
property into cash. and started out
with her to make systematic search
for Strauss. That was four months
ago. Since then the Johnsons have
been in virtually every large city of
Alabama. Tennessee. Georgia. Ken
lucky. and Indiana. In each town they
would check every Strauss living there
through the medium of telephone and
city directories.
II was in Evansville, Ind, that they
learned Strauss was here.

"You' re a Brick"

To describe any one as a "brick"
IS well understood as a terse eX-
preston of approval Of the person
TO whom the compliment is applied.
The phrase is Of ancient origin, and
is referred to by PlUtarch in his
life OF LycuTgUs. An ambassador
from Epirus visited Sparta, and was
greatly entertained and edited by
what he saw during his stay; but
one thing puzzled him-the city
had no walls. Inquiring the reason
Of a phenomenon so rare in those
warlike times as a city without de-
fensive works. he was promised an
answer on the following day. At
sunrise the next morning he was
escorted to a large plain near the
city, where all the Spartan troops
were drawn up.
Here" said Lycurgus. "are the
walls OF Sparta, and every man is
q brick"

heartily when they saw the animal.

but, oh, dear me! the bark was at
the other end was long and loud!

Whose dog art thou cried Puz=

moment and the little dog replied:

Where is Little Tom Tinker"
asked Tom Thumb, looking down
from his seat on Puzz Juniors
shoulder.
You mean my maste-?" said the
little dog.
How many Tinkers are there -"
asked Tom Thumb with A grin.
Half a dozen at least" said the
little dog. There's Mrs. Tinker
and the little Tinkers."

Junior with Tom Thumb perched on
his shoulder, followed by Jacky and
the Blackbird. Tom Tinker was
busily at work in his small shop
at the rear of the house.
In the kitchen doorway stood
four little Tinkers, and in the back
ground could be seen the large,
motherly form of Mrs. Tinker She
was just taking out of the oven a
pan of smoking hot cookies
Don't they smell good?" whis-
pered Tom Thumb.
Don't they, thought" cried
Jacky. Mother used to make dandy
ones for me. But / have no mother

Blackbird softly while tear fell
from his eye.
Mrs. Tinker must have heard him,
Tor she came out with the pan OF
cookies. children, ask your vis-
itors TO have a cookie with us"
and then all the little Thinkers cried
out at once: Mother invites you to

they all sat down on the floor Of
the little back porch, and I'm a few
minutes everybody had his mouth
full of hot cookie, even the little
dog, who stopped barking long
enough to eat up two before he
commenced to bow bow again.

I don't wonder that you are morbid

In regard to your marriage, only
a physician can advise you. But IL

CHATTER LXXvII.

Copyright. 119. Star Company
THE evening paper contained
the statement that Thomas
= Chandler was out Of danger
from the bullet wound. He had
been allowed to see his wife for
few minutes When young Mrs.
Chandler left the hospital she ac-
knowledged that all divorce pro-
eeedings had been dropped.
There was a foolish mistake
somewhere" she had declared.
Honora read this bit of news with
mingled feelings of relief and dis
gust. Apparently the whole scan
daI had died a nstural-or unnatu-
ral-death. Perhaps the end had
been FASTENED by some of DR..
Chambers money. He had enough
to be able to spare a goodly amount
TO save his sons reputation.
That page was turned down and
sealed so far as Mildred was con-
cerned Honora was devoutly
thankful.
She had recently acquired too
much wisdom to mention the pain
ful topic in chatting to Mildred
while she dressed for the Hilton
Ginner. Therefore she was startled
when the girl remarked casually:

deal Of gossip over a trifling mat

enough to let myself get excited

Yet only forty-eight hours ago
this young creature had waited in
the Fairlands station for Tom
Chandler. Now she looked as pret-
ty as IL she had never had q care.
There was not a line nor a wrinkle
in her face. No wonder people
thought her lovely. She was al
most beautiful at times. And this
was one Of the times.

after surveying herself in the mir

about her. Mrs. Hilton, promised

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am about to be released from the b
navy. l am in love with a young lady
who Is addicted 10 alcohol, and IL is
seriously impairing her efficiency zs a
school teacher. Do you think ! ought
- wait until after July ], 1919, to OBJ
serve her actions. W. o. D.
1t would appear as il you are TAX
ing something Of a risk in making
this young lady your, wife. The
only victory over alcoholism is a
moral one. And If you are depend
ing on July TO clear up the situa-
tion you must not forget that the
unscrupuloUs find means to sell al
cohol, even as the weak find means
to buy. Why not try to persuade
her to undergo a course OF treat
nent at a good sanitaFiUm, as her
future happiness depends on her abIl-
ity to overcome this fault it would
be well worth her while. .
