Many hundreds of physicians and
surgeons recommend the Brooks
Appliance and condemn makeshift
trusses as more harmful and dan
gcrous than any other method of
retaining and treating rupture.
Thousands of people have written
us testifying to the amazing results
they have secured from this great in
vention. Many of these people live
right in your vicinity and we will
be glad to send you copies of their
thankful letters if you will ask for

"As IL you'd forget a pal--or cut
him. he said almost as IL he were
defending me to some one.
When l presented him to Vir-
ginia she astonished me by being
very gracious. With the sweetness
and instructive courtesy that are
just as sure to do the correct thing
as the culture and good manners
OF the new world into which
have gone since leaving the old ono
where knew him, Carl now turned
to Virginia:
May we have our coffee with
you, Mrs. Dalton? It's a treat to
me TO see Barbara Anne again
and the girl who's with me will
love the chance to visit with her.
It's Daily Condor, Anne. Remem-
Der her from Haldane's?'
Bring her right over" said vir-
ginia graciously-and then spoiled
1t by adding. I've just time to add
another of my sisters old friends
to my list and then 1 must leave
you to your "reminiscences and run
along to keep an engagement
That's the man who took me to
the recruiting meeting where I first
saw Jim. He's on the advertising
staff of Haldane's," ! said when
Carl went to get his companion.
And I hated myself for feeling
forced to explain to Virginia
. Particularly Cordial.
And one of the stenographers,
l daresay," she replied carelessly.
ignoring Jim's part in my narra-
tive.
Then Carl returned with a slim,
colorress brunette, whom I remem-
bered vaguely as a younger sister
OF good old Kate's. Kate was the
splendid friend whom I had liked
and forgotten. Now. in a rush OF
remorse for the way had neglected
her when my new world swept
me from old moorings, was par.
ticularly cordial to the almost drab
little grain OF dust because she
was Kate's sister.
In the moment before she left
us, Virginia was very gracious--too
gracious. I wondered II my new
old friends knew that she was con-
descending. fancied they both
drew sighs of relief when shc de-
parted

Daisy Condor leaned forward, her

The aftermath OF the war brought
the Homecoming OF the heroes.
Roosevelt, with his Rough Riders,
was perhaps the most advertised,
and Hobson q close second. He
dined with US the night OF his ar
rival In Washington. even before
reporting at the department. and
before beginning his kissing career.
He reached town on Sunday, and i
only learned that same morning
that he would be our guest at din
ner. Wishing to make the party as
much OF a success as possible. j
sent word to my husband at camp
to bring In several officers, The
shops were closed, OF course, but
with some difficulty ! was able to
get hold OF a caterer who made US
some wonderful battleships OF ice
cream. After ringing violently at
tho door OF a flower shop. / saw
a head pop out OF an upper win
dow, and explained my errand.
The man promised to send us some
flowers. but added that he could
not come down to show them to
me. as he was taking a bath!
Hobsou was very handsome in
those days, and had marvellous
deep voice. so, though he told us OF
his tremendously brave exploits in
a very modest manner, We were all
quite thrilled. II will be remem-
bered that he volunteered, with four
others, to take the Merrimac under
FIRE Of the forts, into the harbor of
Santiago and sink her In the chan
mel to block the passage SO that
Cervera's feet could not come out.
His project was very similar to the
sinking OF the vindictive at Zee
brugge by the gallant Carpenter,
whose brave deed stirred London to
wild enthusiasm.
But war left problems behind IL,
not the least OF which was the hold
ing of the Philippines. and much OF
the successful handling OF them has
been due to TAFT, first as civil COM
missioner and later as governor Of
the islands. The remainder of the
Administration seemed peaceful
