Robert began to strip hastily. throw
ing off his sweater: and whatever would
hinder him in the water. He was
born and bred by the river and could
swim like a fish but Pete was not so
sure about his skin and was easily
persuaded to stay on shore while his
friend swan out to hts sisters rescue.
In trying to stop up the leak by
pressing something down over it. the
oars had slipped from Janet's hands
and were floating close by in the wa
ter Robert found that at that spot
there was a shoal of rocks which was
high enough for him to stand on and
so he easily caught hold of the boa.
and giving it huge push in the direc-
ton or the shore plunged in after 1t
and brought 1t to dry land before ii
sank under Janet and the lunch bas-
ket. He then went out after the oars
When he came back to the shore he
found that Pete aud Janet had brought
the boat up on the beach and were
turning it over.

il we're to get home" Pete said. Il
don't know how as we have no nails
and no hammer"

Thay drew close and found the
shack to be small unpainted affair
inside which was a bench made oi
rough boards and also table. This
might be jolly place to have lunch
said Robert. I'VE could sweep 1t ou'
with pine boughs and build a fire IN

door where fires have been built be

it"
"Good." agreed Pete. Now, won
der if we can't strike a trail straigh,
10 the cove from here. 1t would be
shorter than the way we came and
Janet has sore foot"
This they found they could easily do
and in a short time they were stand
ing at the shore looking this way and
that for a glimpse of their boat and
Janet. Neither was in sight although
they could plainly see the little sandy
beach on which they had landed.
Pete was about to call when they
heard voice crying: pete! Petel
on. Petei'' The tone sounded alarming
and Pete was not slow in answering.
1--WE struck sharp rock or some
hing under the water and sprung a
leak and the boats filing up!"
screamed Janet.

Robert rowed and the other two sa,
in the stern with the basket OF lunch.
What wild-looking plaee!" ex-
claimed Pete, as the boat slid into the
wide, stun cove encircled by wooded
shore I'VE might be miles away
from houses and people,"
1t was indeed desolate spo,. As
they rowed near the shore heron few
up from the little strip of sandy beach
on which they decided to land.
Let's explore the shore a bit before
eating" Robert said.
Pete agreed. but Janet said: 81

This plan seemed a good one so the
boys struck oat through the rough.
marshy shore while Janet began row
ing gently over the placid water of
the cove. The walking was indeed
rough and it was a relief when the
boys reached a little forest of scrub
oak where the ground was firm and
the way more clear. Suddenly Pete
exclaimed:
whats that?"
"Well. 1 do declared" cried Robert.
this isn't such deserted place after

I've made a white nag out Of my
petticoat which oue of you boys can
hang on the top of that tall pine tree
so the folks at home can see It. They'll
be sure to come this way looking for
US and 1t will be relief to know were
all right"
This the boys did. They then built
a fire and broiled their fish and oysters
on forked sticks. The dark hours be-
fore midnight and high tide were tho
hardest to while away but finally they
said good bye to the cove and rowed
home in the moonlight
TOO bad" said Roberts mother
when she heard the tale of their ad-
ventures. but for one thing 1 am
glad. This has shown me that my
boy and his friends are resourcefuI
and can look after themselves. It's
worth great deal more than n big
fortune to be able TO make the most of
anv circumstance"

The valves of my engine are in good
shape and the compression is all
right, but it has no snap or vim
What is the matter?
Answer: This type of magnetic
proves perfectly successful in prac-
tice. the fact that two sparks, in
series, occur at the same trne, being
taken account of in the design of the
windings, so as to give ample ignit-
ing power Its adoption permits the
magnetic distributor to be done away
with, thus reducing the cost and COM
plication of the instrument. II your
particular magnetic is in good eondi-
tion you need not worry about the
ignition. Very probably your trouble
Is caused by faulty carburation, as
sun1ing that everything is timed cor
rectly. Since the date when your
car was built, many changes have
had to be made in carburetors and
manifolds, in order to successfully
utilize the Increasingly inyolatile fuel
furnished, and we believe that the
application of exhaust heat to your
manifold and the careful adjustment
of the carburetor or the installation
of a more modern one. VIII eliminate
your trouble. assuming that there is
no abnormal friction acting In any
of the car parts.

We can use rock for hammer"
They took bit of wood from the
seat in the bow and also pr!ed up some
nails with their knives. which together
with the nails from Roberts shoes
served to make the boat almost as
water-tight as she was when she first
entered the cove. But it all took. time.

done Pete looked at his watch and

the nest Will. come lose, and tumbles
down with babies and all. But this
does not often happen. and we don't
know anything about Il until It does,
so 1t doesn't bother us bit. When the
long feathers in our wings have grown
out, and our bluish-black skins are
hidden under regular grown folks
feathers. we climb out of the nest. and
for several days cling to the bricks,
while our muscles are getting hard
and strong. After a while we are
strong enough to work our way right
up to the top of the chimney. so that
we can look over and see the great
big green world. with its fields. and
meadows. and lakes and ponds. We
did not know that anything could be
half as big.
But the biggest thing of all is when
we look up-there is just no end at
all to the sky that is turned down
over us like a great, blue bowl. We
see our parents and lots OF our folks
flying about. and as our. wings are
just like theirs. we don't see why we
can't fly too. So off we hop, and after
falling little ways. our wings press
against the air and we stop falling,
and sail off. just as easy! Then we
know we are flying, and ever after
that 1t IS easier TO fly than do any
thing else. SO that's why we are al
ways flying. Anybody would do the
easiest thing. wouldn't they?

But then. our kind OF folks don't
have much use for feet anyway, as
they hardly ever sit on anything. bu;
spend all their time flying. They do
not even sit down when they eat but
take their breakfast, dinner and sup
per on the wing. and while going about
as fast as IL they were shot out of a
gun.
Whenever one Chimneysweep passes
another in the air, they say. "Twit,er-

Miss May Tobin announces that
Miss Bertha Fisher, 1922 Daven-
port street, is champion knitter, as
She has already knitted II sweaters
for the refugee quota of 1890 Sweat
ers. Knitters to help in this quota
are needed and any woman who has
ever made sweater is asked by Miss
Tobin to volunteer her services. One
family. that of Mrs. George w. Lor-
enz, is 100 per cent as Miss Edna,
Miss Jessie and Master George all
are knitting. George has made war
posters and knits constantly for the
refugees.
In order that every yone who de-
sires may take advantage of the
home nursing course as given by the
Red Cross, classes are being organ
lied in the different wholesale
houses. One of the first to take adj
vantage of this offer. were the wo-
men employed at the Bynre Ham
mer WHOLESALERS house. They have
their own class room and SO many
were anxious to take the course that
two classes had to be organized to
meet Tuesday and Wednesday ev-
enings from S to $50. On Friday
at p. m. the employees of the pack
ing houses will have class at the
Social Settlement class room and on
Thur sday a. m. class will be held
at the same place for the mothers
of the community.
One of the first classes organized
was composed largely Of the ,,-oung
women from the Omaha chapter
headquarters in the courthouse.
This class meets every Tuesday and
Thursday evening in the class room
on the fourth floor of the Y. w.
c. A.
The Red Cross service pins for
800 hours service or more, are now
on hand at the headquarters in the
court house. Those who have hand
ed in their questionnaires and had
it approved by the committee, may
receive pin and certificate. The
pins are ST each.

cesspool sending out gases and poisons.
Even II your bowels move slightly each
day, that is not enough. There must be
an occasional THOROUGH. complete
cleansing to rid your system of all ac-
cumulated, decaying matter.
HOW TO CLEAN BOWELS QUICK
The MOST COMPLETE bowel cleanser
known is a mixture of buckthorn bark,
glycerine and ten other ingredients, put
up in ready prepared form under the trade
name of Alder-i-ka. This mixture is so
powerful bowel cleanser that it ALWAYS
does its work properly and thoroughly. 1t
removes foul and poisonous matter which
other cathartic or laxative mixtures are
unable to dislodge. 1t does a COMPLETE
job and it works QUICKLY and without
the least discomfort or trouble. 1t is so
gentle that one forsets he has taken 1t
until the THOROUGH evacuation starts,
It is astonishing the great amount of foul,
poisonous matter a SINGLE SPOONFUL
of Adler-i-ka draws from the alimentary
canal-matter you would never have
thought was in your system. Try 1t right
after natural bowel movement and notice
how much MORE foul matter will be
brought out which was poisoning your
system. In slight disorders such rs
occas ional constipation, sour stomach, gas
on the stomach" or sick headache one
spoonful brings relief almost INSTANTLY.
AdleY-i-ka is the MOST THOROUGH bowel
cleanser and antisepticizer ever offered in
ready prepared form. 1t is constant

By Professional Company

An energetic group OF actors and
actresses in the making are rehears-
inr for the production OF Fiji OF
the Toy Shop" which is to be given

The dances in Fiji" are unique.
People in position to know say
they are the best ever seen here.
The china dolls will compose one
group that is sure to make a hit.
They 60 through a most graceful
dance. and the serious faced clowns
who work with them should amuse
the audience for many minutes. !.
II Another, interesting group or
young women does very dainty
dance called the Dance of the Paper
Dolls" These girls are pretty and
| graceful, and when dressed in ap-
pfopriate costumes will be worth
