courier.
"Glad to know you," said the boy
and the girl.
"Glad to know both of you" said
the goblin. "There was a time," he
continued, "when goblins were not
considered nice But it was gossip,
mere gossip. No truth in it at all.
They like US around these parts-in
the neighborhood of the House Of
Secrets.
'Well, I'm so glad to know both Of
you," said the goblin again, ''but /
must say 1 am glad to meet the boy
and feel that 1 have a friend at last
in all this weary world"
"Why Goblin" said the courier"
chow sadly you speak"
81 shouldn't" said the goblin, "but
just this very day my trusty messen-
gers have brought me back sad news"
"Tell it to us and perhaps we can
cheer you up," said the girl.
"Yes," said the courier, tell them
about it, and pardon me, please, for

"Good bye, Courier Cooperation"
shouted the boy and girl, "glad to have
met you tool"
They waved to him as he mounted
his horse and rode off, The horse was
feeling like gallOping for he had been
resting for some time and had eaten
a good dinner of the tall grass by the
roadside.
"What was making you feel so bad
ly?'' asked the boy.
"Oh," said the goblin, whose name
was Master Thoughtfulness my mes
sengers have been having hard work
trying to get their messages delivered
and opened and read"
what did the messages say?' asked
the boy.
"They said" Master Thoughtfulness
answered, "'It is often very selfish to
forget Do not blame everything on
your poor memory. Make your men,
ory better and so be thoughtful and
considerate of those about you"
"Why," said the boy, 81 got one of

'Yes," said Master Thoughtfulness,
''my messengers give their messages in
all sorts of ways. 1 sent one to you.
I was delighted you had heard it and
that you properly understood it. That
was why 1 greeted you as an old
! friend.
"And the girl was so thoughtful of
you She didn't want to hinder and
detain you any more on your journey
and so she didn't tell you how starv-
ingly hungry she was"

"You didn't know that you were 60

''That wasn't your fault. Anyway, it
did do me good to hear the boy. 1
heard him as 1 was coming along.
"Yes, I heard him say that he had
been very selfish not to think whether
you had had your breakfast or not
and that it was only an excuse when
he told himself he had forgotten, it
had been more than forgetfulness, it
had been selfishness.
"Ah," said Master Thoughtfulness,
chow many men and women, boys and
girls excuse many an act of selfish
ness by saying that they forgot. The
boy here didn't make excuses!"

years and about five years ago went

a bad cold and felt my old trouble

bad coughs and we kept up a regular
concert of coughing every night. l
went down to my druggist and he told
me about this new medicine Hypo-COd
and that was the end of our troubles.
1t helped us both right away. Our
coughs disappeared and l believe any
body with bronchial trouble can get
relief by using it. ] know l had a
chronic case and it did the work for
me. Besides knocking out our coughs,
it built us both up fine. We both be-
gan feeling better and our appetites
increased immensely You just can't
imagine what a wonder change it
makes in you," declares Mr.. L. D.
Smith.
If the lungs are in a weakened con-
dition and the system is run down it
requires a powerful modern medicine
to knock out the trouble. That is why
Earle's Hypo-Cod accomplishes results
when weaker preparations fail and
why it does its work days and weeks
sooner. Besides it is nicer to take
than the old fashioned tonic. Earle's
Hypo-Cod isn't a patent medicine (see
formula on bottle). Right now is the
best time in the world to take Hypo-
Cod and by using it now you fortify
the system against wintry ills. Drop

RESUME WORK JUNE 70 Ry Associaeed Press

London, June to.-A resumption of work in the British coal mines Mon day, June 20. it is generally assumed here, will result from decision reached today at conference of the miners delegates to Cake a ballot on the proposals made by the coal mine owners looking to a settlement of the strike. This assumption is said to be based less on the idea that the miners regard the latest terms of fered by the mine owners as accept able to them than on the belief that there will not be a two-thirds ma jority in favor of continuance or the strike. The cessation of work in the mines has lasted for 10 weeks and the funds of the miners are ex- hausted: and, it is asserted, although the terms the mine owners have pro- posed do not meet the claims the workers have advanced, they consti- tute a considerable advance on any thing previously offered.
