1t is all right to produce if you produce the

the production of silk shirts for sissy males,
$3.75 silk stockings for silly maids, and useless
things of such sort-that kind of production
is not going to cut the cost of living. Put youl
production energies into the producing of the

PHYSICALLY FIT
AT ANY AGE

It isn't age, it's careless living that
puts men 'down and out" Keep your
internal organs in good condition and
you will always be physically fit.
The kidneys are the most over
worked organs in the human body.
When they break down under the
strain and the deadly uric acid ac--
cumulates and crystallizes look out!
These sharp crystals tear and scratch
the delicate urinary channels causing
cxcruciating pain and set up irrita-
tions which may cause premature de-
generation and often do turn into
deadly Bright's Disease.
One Of the first warnings of slug
gish kidney action is pain or stiffness
in the small of the back, loss OF appe-l
tite, Indigestion or rheumatism.

you. At the first indication of trouble

WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
It is a physicians prescription.
fswamp-Root is a strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has SO many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

"FIDDLE-FIT"
Keep Liver and Bowels
Clean and Active
with "CaScaretS"

Sick headache, biliousness, coated
tongue, sour, gassy stomach-always
trace this to torpid liver; delayed,
fermenting food in the bowels.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in.
testines, instead Of being cast out of
the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When this poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes conges-
ton and that dull, throbbing, sickening
headache.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse the
stomach, remove the sour, undlgested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and poi
sons in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will have you
feeling clear, rosy and as fit as fiddle
by morning. They work while you
sleep.-Adv.

SYNOPSIS.

John Davis and Hawk Morgan, execu-
tors of the estate of John Carr, miner,
disagree over the disposition of the profits
of the mine. Morgan seeks the gold and
the girl, Ethel, Carr's adopted daughter,
for himself, and unsupported by Davis,
whom Ethel really loves, makes several
sensational attempts upon the life of
Davis. Suspicion is diverted to mysteri-
Gus hermit. Ethel is lured to a fake
hospital where she is about to be married
to Morgan, thinking he is Davis. Davis
and Rainface appear in the nick of time,
but Morgan escapes without being recog-
nized. Ethel and Davis are then drugged
and cast adrift in a boat with internal
machines aboard. They escape.

are welcome to help yourself to q
thorse out Of the corral. I'll get you a
gun while you are roping him." was
her response. AS he returned from the
| corral with his mount the woman met
him at the door, rifle in hand, and
thanking her and promising a quick
| return of the borrowed articles, he set
out. upon his way.
From the winding trail which arose
in successive uprisings from the val
ley into the foothills, the boss and his
follower looked down to catch sight of
galloping horse and rider far below,
yet not beyond rifle shot. An oath
burst from the lips of Fream.
'He's got loose, but we can pot him
from here" Raising his rifle, he fired,
but as the smoke cleared the horseman
was seen still pursuing his way and
| apparently unhurt. The other scoun-
drel raised his weapon, sighted care
fully and pulled the trigger. AS the
gun roared the man below toppled
| from his saddle and fell headlong to
the ground.
"But I got him." he laughed. For q
moment the pair watched the motion
less form below, then, squirting their
horses, went galloping away.
That Davis was not dead In fact,
with a bullet through his head, was
due to his quick thinking. When the
bullet fired by Fream whizzed close by
his head and spattered upon the wall
of rock he cast lightning glance in
| the direction from whence the report
came. The second man was in the act
OF raising his rifle and, watching him
| intently, John rode along in apparent
unconcern as he awaited the pulling
Of the trigger. AS the smoke leaped
from the muzzle of the distant rifle,
with a lightning move he threw him
self sideways from his horse, escaping
the whining bullet by the fraction of
an inch. Knowing that to make a
| move would be to have his body
pumped full Of lead, he lay in the
sprawled attitude in which he had
fallen until he saw the villainous pair
ride away. No sooner were they gone
than he leaped to his feet.
The horse, frightened by the shots
and SIS riders fall ran into the hills.
Once more the man pursued his way
on foot.
From the camp where the party had
halted for lunch Morgan and the
Spider, who had retired short dis
lance down the trail to talk things
over, saw John approaching them on
foot far below. The Hawk uttered a
smoking oath.

Can you beat it?" The crafty eyes of
the Spider were already scanning the
conditions which surrounded the APP
preaching one.
"See that ridge he is traveling?" he
said as his fingers clutched the others
arm. eff we could only stampede our
horses down it he couldn't get out of
their way. There's precipice on each
side of him and he would either have
to Jump to death or be run over.
Either would be good enough for u.s.
Morgan started off on run.
"We1l try it, but we've got to hustle
or he'll get off that place. Round up
the gang on the outskirts Of the camp
and get them busy" Starting OFF the
other way, the Spider secured couple
of his most trusted rascals and quickly
explained the plan. Silently the horses
of the cavalcade were driven around
the spur of the hill out Of sight of the
camp, then started on wild plunge
down the incline, frightened into a

GETTING Bail for Moses.

Red sea to the wilderness. At left

cussing the merits and dement's of one
god, Baal, who appeared to have a
big influence on the play.
"What are they doing now?' asked
one cop of the other.
"Well," replied the second, "it's

7ay to jap Soldiers.

In the opinion of the Jul, the pay OF
Japanese soldiers is too small. At
present it is. 1.56 yen (7S cents) a
month for first and second class pri-
Yates, and 1876 COS cents) for corpo-
rails. Even if the pay be increased so
per cent, says the editor, it will nCt
suffice for the needs of the soldiers.
At present they have to get money
from home to make up the shortage,
which is not right. The total pay of
the soldiers amounts to $2,150,000. II
it is trebled, the government will need
only S4,30O,0OO additional.

and shots which were all about them.
Aroused by the racket, the members
of the party who were eating their
lunch came running to the spot just
as Morgan came up, painting.
sour horses have been stampeded
by a band of Indian horse thieves.
Spider, myself aud these two fellows
caught them st it, but they were going
out Of sight around that spur just as
we arrived" Hastily the entire party
secured their weapons and started in
pursuit.
A mile down the trail they came
upon John, still pursuing his upward
way, covered with dust, but unhurt.
"Just had q close CALL" he laughed
as they crowded about him. SCI was
coming along a narrow ridge with g.
steep drop ON both sides when I saw @
bunch Of stampeding horses coming
down upon me. AS I could not jump
off on either side, for a moment I
thought was a goner. Fortunately,
however, I found place where could
get a finger hold On the side of the
way and, swinging myself over, hung
there until they passed. Then I pulled
myself up"
"Thank God!" breathed Ethel, as
she slipped her arm under his own.
Morgan, ordering three of the men
to go after the brutes and round them
up, led the party back to camp. John
and Ethel walked side by side, the girl
still clinging to the returned one as
though afraid that by some magic he
should again be whisked from her
sight. The Hawk shook his fist in the
distance as John finished the recital
Of his adventures.

work. We've got to hunt him and his
gang down and fill them full of lead

eyes. 1t is war to the knife" re-
turned Davis thoughtfully. Awaiting
only the return Of the frightened
horses, the expedition continued its
way, camping for the night at the edge
of a swollen mountain torrent that de-
scended from the snow mountains far
beyond.
A small shack Of light logs resting
upon a low foundation stood ct the
edge Of the turgid stream. AS it was
the only place Of shelter near, while
supper was being prepared Morgan,
Davis and the girl inspected it. 1t was
a tiny affair of about ten feet by eight,
consisting Of but one room and with
the ridge pole no higher than a man
could reach. Beyond window, door
and small platform outside, it pos
sessed nothing but walls, floor and
roof. Mean as it was, there was moth
ing better near, therefore John began
insisting that Ethel occupy it during
the night. Quickly she protested.
81 won't stay in there alone. You
must not leave me. We must watch
over each other, and will not be left
alone"
"But it would not do for me to stay
inside, also," he responded. The Hawk
came forward with a solution of the
problem.
"We can drop blanket across the
middle Of it, Davis, and you can bunk
on the 0ther side of the screen to hui

anything I'll sleep on this porch just
