that it was too small for her, SO Annie
made Of it Il present TO Marguerite.
AS for the hole the purchase had made
in her husbands household treasury,
Marguerite borrowed from sister TO
make it up. SO hubby never would
find out, and things would smooth out
somehow.
Marguerite did not know what a tam
gle she had made for herself. She
stroked her wrinkled brOw-worry
wrinkles already! Then she smiled
as she thought Of the wonderful seal
skin coat that was causing all the fuss.
But if Marguerite had been a wiser
woman she would not have caused her
self all this uneaSineSS. She had fall
en- into the depth Of iniquity, tits true,
by wasting her money. But why did
she add insult to injury by trying to
cover it over with lies, borrowing, de-
ceit? Why did she not tell her hus-
band at once what she had done? She
would have avoided the conscience
pangs that made her life miserable
and made her detest that scrap of seal
skin.
Afraid that he would storm if she
told him! She did not consider how
much he would storm if by some mis-
chance he should find out by himself
how she lied to him and deceived him,
in addition to being e~Xtravagant. And
probably he would not have stormed
at all had she 'fessed up at once.
Taking him into her confidence would
have brought them closer together
than ever, whereas sneaking about be-
hind his back laid the foundations for
a breach.

Weekly Health Talks
URIC ACID IN THE SYSTEM
BY LEE H. SMITH, NJ. D.

Uric acid is now generally recop-
nized as the cause of more diseases
than was heretofore believed. When
the kidneys are out Of order uric acid
accumulateS within the body in super
abundance. The disordered kidneys
do not filter the pOisons out of the
blood, as they ought to do, and so the
poisons remain in the blood and float
around until they find a place to
lodge, in form Of urate salts. The
thing TO remember is that you may
have rheumatism in any part OF the
body-you may have pains anywhere
your back may ache and your head
may be dizzy-but the trouble is not
where the pain appears.
The trouble is in the kidneys, and
what is the first thing to do? You must
get that excess uric acid out Of your sys-
TEN, which can be done by taking Anuric
Tablets, the splendid remedy which DR..
Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y, has put on sale
in the drug stores at a low price. Anuric
Tablets (made double strength), when
taken INTO the system as medicine, have
the peculiar power of dissolving the uric
acid deposited there. Drop a bit of sugar
or salt into hot water, and it will disap-
pear. In precisely the same way do these
Anuric Tablets dissolve uric acid. OF
course, after Kidding the system Of uric
acid, it may return again unless you eat
the right foods and live the right kind of
life, but DR.. Pierce will advise you fully
on proper food and correct living if you
write and ask him. He makes no charge
for such advice. Take Anuric Tablets to-
day, by all means, and get that uric acid
out of your system. Don't, don't, don't,
put the matter off.

we were quite certain we were going

II almost died Of joy when / came

"My master and your master" said
Fred, pointing to the other two horses,
couldn't bear to have us sold. OF
course we have spent W lives on the
police force Of a great city. We have
helped the policemen who rode us.
"We have stopped runaways, we
have saved lives of children and we
have done everything we could, al
ways. OF course, it would seem to me
quite dreadful not to do everything pos
sible to save the life of a wonderful
child, for l came to the conclusion
which mean that l finally decided
that children were about the most Won
dcrful things in the world.
"How loved helping them when
they came from school. How gay and
bright were the hours in the day when
their high, gl%oriously happy voices
would reach my ears.
"My master would whisper to me,
The children are coming, Fred. We
must be on guard that they don't get
run over
"And oh, the parades we have seen
The lives we have had Of adventures!
"Our masters begged hat we
shouldn't be sold. They said we de-
served to have our old age spent in
peace and pleasure because we had al
ways worked so hard, and had saved
so many, many lives.
"When the news came that we would
not be sold but that we would be
brought to this wonderful farm and
looked after all our days--well, our
masters, simply cried for JOY.
"'They're to be rewarded they
shouted. They're to be rewarded
$50, we are to live on this beautiful
farm. We will always be looked after.
Our busy city lives are over, but oh.
how thankful / am, that i'm my ole
age l can think Of the days on tn:

good" f.,
And Kitty and Bonnie neighed In
happiness that this reward had been
given TO them.

SAPPHlRES IN FRONT RANK
Precious Stone Said to Be in Forefront
Compared With Other Expensive
Fashionable Gems.

That person, man, woman or boil
shevist, who wishes to be in it, to use
the English equivalent for the French
phrase, will wear sapphires. Such is
the edict of fashion. One reason for
this is hat it has been comparatively
easy to initiate the ruby, hitherto en-
throned as the show gem, says the
New York Times. Another probably is
that the sapphire has been somewhat
neglected, and it is prudent to get rid
of accumulated stock.
AS an incident Of the ediet demobi-
lizing the ruby and calling the sap
phire to the colOrs, we are told that
diamonds and pearls are still the most
expensive and most fashionable jewels.
The latter part Of this statement is
Pathology ia its crudest form. AS if
anything could be the most expensive
and avoid being the most fashionable.
Still another interesting bit of this jew
el gossip states that diamonds and
pearls shave increased 100 per cent in
price since the war began, proving
that they are worthy associates of
King Coal. The information probably
will serve to halt those who have been
considering burning their surplus dia-
mOnds in the furnace to conserve the
coal supply. And it also seems that
the most aristocratic of gems feels the
ebb and flow of the tide of labor, for
it is said that the South African field
has been confronted with a labor
shortage Such statements are truly
alarming and probably will set many
to boarding diamonds, but news is
news and must be given out.
