braced myself for what / believed to
be coming, namely, his effort at self
expression. But no, this was clever
cat. Like o. Henry, he dealt in clever
surprises. In his attitude there was
something of suspense. My waiting
nervous system felt the strain of it.
Then he gave voice to a great silence.
He said nothing in dramatic way.
With self-satisfied smirk on his
pussy face he jumped off the fence
gracefully and disappeared into the
night. He was a clever cat. He did
the unexpected in an original and
artistic way. He annoyed me. for he
failed to live up to. my conception of
cats, yet 1 felt a certain admiration
for him.
The next night another cat sat on
the fence. This was a great cat,
though his appearance was far from
prepossessing. He was scrawny, and
his coat bore, all too plainly, the scars
of many a "foughten field" The di-
vine light Of unrest burned in his
eyes. He threw back his head and
poured out his very soul in vigorous
expression, sincere and earnest. though
unappreeiated. Nothing daunted by
the lack of applause, or by the shower
of missiles directed at his SCARED
person, he gave full vent to his mes
sage In a form which, though uncon-
ventional, seemed best to fit his muse.
Then. with an air of utter abandon,
he shook the dust of the fence from
his unconcerned feet and disappeared.
"This," thought /, my ears still ring

He has always had enough money to

WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
1t is physicians prescription.
Swamp-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.

HAVE NEED OF MUCH FOOD
voracious Appetites of Growing Boys
Are Natural and Not to Be
Wondered At.

DIR. e. F. Du Bots made extensive
studies a few years ago on the food
requirements of growing boys. and
found that they needed about % per
cent more than grown men, weight
for weight. Now Drs. f. G.. Benedict
and Mary f. Hendry have made SIM
liar studies on girls between twelve
and seventeen years of age. These
correspond in their results with those
made by DR.. Du Bots.
The Journal of the American Medi-
cal Association comments that, con-
sidered in connection with the usually
lively muscular activities of children,
which call for liberal expenditure of
energy, the facts ascertained explain
and justify. the large appetites of grow
ing boys.

Rubber Shoes Life Savers.

A fact which is probably only slight.
ly known is the immunity from the at
tacks Of lightning which is afforded by
wearing a pair of rubbers.
The person who assumes these COW
erings must be careful not to come In
contact with anything except the floor.
Providing he follows this instruction
he can not possibly be injured by the
lightning in any way.
The explanation is simple enough.
The electric fluid before 1t can pass in
to human being or animal must first
come in contact with the earth. Its
passage from the earth to the wearer
of the rubbers is, of course. stopped
by the soles Of the latter.
So next time storm Is brewing
hurry up and get out your rubbers.

BE Sure It's the Riqht Road.

It's the best policy to go slow
enough to make sure of the way you
would go. There's many youth car
ried away by the enthusiasm Of the
minute. He has never learned the
true sense of values, and lacks the
measures for proper ratings. Many
get the work bee and leave school
long before they are fitted for toll.
Some get the idea that they are
never treated right at any job and
throw 1t up before they get to the
point Of earning dividend for their
employer. Still others leave home
thinking they will have full oppor-
tunity to do as they please. How
little such folks understand life. There
is much repentance that would never
have been needed, and tears that
might have been spared if folks had
been willing to take the right road in
life.--Grit.

bow darlington turned away, and
through the glass Drummond watched
him get his hat and stick from the
cloakroom. Then he looked at the

asked quickly. "Are you feeling

me rather shock, that man finding us
here. You've stumbled right into the

"What is his particular worry?'
"First and foremost the brute wants
to marry me-" replied the girl

sbut I am not surprised"
"But 1t isn't that that matters" She
looked at Drummond quietly. Henry
darlington is the second most danger
Gus man in England"
"Only the second" murmured Hugh
s'Then hadn't I better start my career
with the first?"
She looked at him in silence q
suppose you think that I'm hysterical,'
she remarked after a while. you're
probably even wondering whether I'm
all there"
Drummond dicked the ash from his
cigarette, then he turned to her dis.
passionately. "You must admit" he
remarked, shat up to now our CONVEX
sation has hardly proceeded along
conventional lines. I am complete
stranger to you; another man who is
complete stranger to me speaks to
you while we're at tea. You inform
me that shall probably have to kill
him In the near future. The state
ment is, 1 think you will agree, a
trifie disconcerting."
The girl threw back her head and
laughed merrily. "You poor young
man." she cried "put that way it does
sound alarming" Then she grew Sc
rious again. There's plenty of time
for you to back out now if you like. .
She was looking at him gravely as
she spoke, and it seemed to her COM
panion that there was an appeal in
the big blue eyes. And they were very
big: and the face they were set In was
very charming especially at the angle
IT was tilted at, in the half-fight of the
room. Altogether, Drummond reflect
ed. a most adorable girl. And ador-
able girls had always been hobby of

letter of hers or something, and she
wanted him to get 1t back. OF course
he would, even IL he had to thrash the
