Take It in Convenient Tablet Form-Brings Better and Quicker Results Than Com mon Baking Yeast.

Thousands of weak, nervous, pale and thin people are now taking yeast the new way!
 Instead of eating ordinary baking yeast, which is so disagreeable to many, they are now taking it in pleasant tablet form, combined with organic or vegetable iron. which is necessary in order to get the best benefit from yeast.
 This great combination of tonics is known as Ironized Yeast. Not only is 1t more convenient to take than common yeast but it is far more eff fective. for in Ironized Yeast you get the benefit of two splendid health builders, instead of only one. Further more. Ironized Yeast contains high ly concentrated brewers yeast. which is much richer in vitamines than or dinary baking yeast.

 Andrew said Imogene, as he came into the house and pulled off his coat, "the furnace is going out"
 It's got nothing on me-" replied Andrew cheerfully. "so am L., But 1t is" insisted Imogene.
 Well" replied Andrew, "why doesn't Sarah attend to it?"
 Tt Is her afternoon out,"a said Imogene impatiently.
 "Wen,' he replied. "I don't see any reason why the furnace should not have an afternoon out the same as Sarah"
 Now. I'm tired of nonsense" said Imogene. T have done all l can do to it. You must go and fix 1t be- fore you eat your dinner"
 Isn't dinner ready?" asked An drew. You don't cook dinner on the furnace. do you?'
 Dinner is ready" replied Imo- gene in a tired voice, but can't you understand that the furnace is going out?"
 Now, in a case of this kind" said Andrew, drawing his chair up to the table, the best thing is to be req sonable. Let's consider the matter. We can debate 1t best. it seems to me, over square meal
 TO begin With, l believe you re- marked that the furnace was going out. and from your manner 1t seems tragic.
 "Of course, you really did not l mean that the furnace was going out ] for it is sort of home body fur mace and has stuck around here ever since we bought the house.
 You really meant that the fire in | tf tro and you say you have done all you could l to stop it and yet it still insists on going out"
 "Oh, shut up." said Imogene, T am tired of your cheap wit"
 "Shush, shush." said Andrew. Now l just tell me please what you have 1 done so I will know what not to do when I go down there. There is no use for me to try the same remedies on the patient that you have tried. Did you speak kindly to it?'
 T won't speak kindly to you in a minute" replied Imogene angriiy. T pulled every little dinSHe ip II and opened the door, Right there is where you made your mistake" he grinned at her.
 You should have pulled the din- guses and closed the door, It seems to me. my dear. that you have not used your naturally fine brain in this matter"
 eff I had been there and the fire | was about to go out l would have closed the door and kept it in. I'm ] surprised at you"

IRONIZED YEAST BEST FOR
 "RUN-DOWN" PEOPLE

Lack of vitamines and iron in the system is keeping thousands of mem women and children in i'll health. Ironized Yeast supplies your body with the proper amount of both of these all-important substances. and in doing so, soon brings you the glowing health and rugged strength that is your birthright.
 If you are rundown. weak. anae- mic. nervous. or if you are suffering with loss of appetite, unsightly com plexion or loss of vitality, and en- ergy, try Ironized Yeast. Usually it will show good results after the sec ond or third day. often it will clear up the worst complexions in less than two weeks.
 Ironized Yeast is packed in patent ed sani-tape containers and will keep indefinitely. Costs no more per dose than common yeast--yet is far more effective. Each package contains 10 days treatment and costs only a dol lar--or just 10c a day. Special di- rections for children in each package. Made sby the Ironized Yeast Com pany. Atlanta, Ga.-Adv

the Purple Hills and I must be safc in my hemloek tree by then. I would be scared to death to be out after dark. Yet those Ducks ought to be warned. Oh, dear, what shall.I do?'
 Blacky peered over at the Green Forest and then over toward the Purple Hills, behind which jolly. round red MT. Sun would go to bed very shortly. He shivered as he thought of the Black Shadows that soon would come swiftly out from the Purple Hills across the Big River and over the Green Meadows. With them might come Hooty the Owl, and Hooty wouldn't object in the least to Crow dinner. He wished he was in that hemlock tree that very min ute.
 Then Blacky looked at the hunter with his terrible gun and thought of what might happen, what would be almost sure to happen, unless those Ducks were warned. "Ill wait a It, tie while longer,r muttered Blacky and tried to feel brave. But instead he shivered.

 -Blacky the Crow.
 It was late in the afternoon, and Blacky the Crow was on his way to the Green Forest. As usual, he went around by the Big River to see If that man was scattering corn for the Ducks. He wasn't there. No one was to be seen along the bank of the Big River.
 "He hasn't come today or else he came early and has left" thought Blacky. Then his sharp eyes caught sight of something that. made him turn aside and make straight for certain tree, from the top of which he could see all that went on for a long distance. What was it Blacky saw? It was "a boat coming down the Big River.
 Blacky sat still and watched. Pres ently the boat turned in among the rushes and a moment later @ man stepped out on the shore. It was tho same man Blacky had watched scat ter corn in the rushes every day for week. There wasn't the least doubt about it; 1t was the same man.
 'Ha, Hap exclaimed Blacky, and nearly lost his balance in his excite- ment. 'IIa, hal It is just as
  eyes had seen that the man was car ryihg something and that something was gun, @ terrible gun. BlaclSy knows a terrible gun as far as he can see #.
 The hunter, for, of course, that Is what he was, tramped along the shore until he reached the bushes which Blacky had noticed close to the water and which he knew had not grown there. The hunter looked out over the Big River. Then he walked along where he had scattered corn the day before. Not grain was to be seen. This seemed to please him. Then he went back to the bushes and sat down on a log behind them, his terrible gun across his knees.
 q was sure of it." muttered Blaclly He Is going to wait there for those Ducks to come in, and then some thing dreadful will happen. What terrible creatures these hunters are' They don't know what fairness is. No sir. they don't know what fairness is. He has put food there day after day, where Duslky the Black Duck and hls flock would be sure to find it, and has waited until they have become SO sure that there is no danger there that they are no longer suspicious. He knows they win feel so sure that all is safe that they will come in without looking for danger. Then he will fire that terrible gun and kill them without giving them any chance at all.
 "Reddy Fox is a sly, clever hunter, but he wouldn't do 9 thing like that. Neither would old Man Coyote or anybody else who wears fur or feath CTS. They might hide and try to catch some one by surprise. That Is all right. because each df us is sup posed to be on the watch for things of that sort Oh dear, what's to be done? It is time I was getting home to the Green Forest. The Black Shad ows will soon come creeping out from

 Then the country is saved. Here is the situation as I see it." said Andrew, the fire is about to go out. You speak kindly to it without avail 1 applaud your kindly methods Next finding that gentle measures avail nothing. you use force and you shut it in behind an iron door.

MORE TRUTH

GERMAN OPERA
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

GERMAN OPERA We never thought much of the Kaiser, Of the Ludendorf- Hindeburg set. They got their deserts, and though
 likely 1t hurts
 It was just what they needed to
 get. But now that the racket is over, And Congress has ended the war, We will freely admit that we're eager
 to sit
 And listen to Wagner once more. For we're fond of the wall of the And the 9fluegelhorn's sorrowful The kettledrum's roll is balm to our And we sigh for-the clashing trom-
 bone. We are weary of rags and jazzes. We sigh for the heart stirring joys And the rattlety bang and the clang-
 ety clang,
 Of music that makes a real noise. We never could follow the stories Wagnerian singers recite, But the salvos of sound that they
 scatter around
 AIIOfu us tne widest uelSnt It's not that the fair haired sopranos Weigh two hundred pounds on the
 hoof It's the fact that the notes that exude from their throats Rebound in rich waves from the
 roof. We've got our own Yankee composers Like Herbert and Irving Berlin, But honest to gosh. when compared
 with the Boche, Their pieces are flimsy and thin. We know very little of music, And the why's and the wherefores \ thereof, But we like rich roar in an opera
