Important to all Women
 Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.
 If the kidneys are not in healthy con- dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.
 You may suffer pain in the back, head ache and loss of ambition.
 Poor health makes you nervous, irrita- ble and may be despondent; it makes any one so.
 But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions.
 Many send for a sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder medicine, will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer x Go, Binghamton, N. Y., you may receive sam pie size bottle by Parcel Post. You can purchase medium and large size bottles at all drug res.-Advertisement.

 The voice of Ben Littleford came to them plainly because the night was so very still; he was reading from the Gospel according to Saint Mark preparatory to his bedtime prayer The two at the gate listened intently The way in which the illiterate giant stumbled over the simplest words was pitiful. =.
 The hillman closed the Good Book and placed it on the table beside him. There was the low shuffllng of feet as half dozen persons knelt at their chairs. The prayer which followed was much like John Moreland's own bedtime prayer; 1t had in it less of supplication than of thanksgiving And in the tail of it there were words that were like bullets to the mountaineer at the gate

He walked as though half blind across 1 the porch, and entered without knock | ing, and went in to Ben Littleford with his right hand outstretched.

 Littleford arose and groped for his old-time enemys hand, found it and grasped it in both his own. You're better an I am, John More l land," he said-"youre a d-d sight better an I am."

CHAPTER X

The Barbarian Princess Goes Home.
 Miss Elizabeth Littleford beheld an interesting sight when she alighted from a northbound afternoon train at the Halfway switch. Just below the long siding a shorter siding had been put in-the railway company had been hastened, no doubt, by the great in fluence of old Newton Wheatley-and from it had been unloaded a small geared locomotive, a dozen or so of little coal cars opening at the bottom, and miles of light steel rails with kegs of spikes for them.
 Out toward her home a crew of men worked like bees at the building of a treStle of round timbers that had been cut from the nearby woods; she at once recognized these men as More lands and Littlefords, and she knew it meant peace They didn't recognize her, because of the distance and the clothing she wore, and because they were too busy to pay any particular attention to her.
 Farther out toward Doe river an other crew of men was at work clear ing the way for the little narrow gauge She heard the sounds of the ax and the saw, the hammer and the steel, and once there came to her ears the great dull roar of exploding dyna- mite as cliff was blown clear of it's foundations.
 Miss Elizabeth Littleford smiled happily. And she had not been happy for long time. Patricia McLaurin with whom she ha dbeen staying had been kindness itself, but the mother of Bill Dale, her Bill Dale, had snubbed her-and besides the longing for the old home hills was riotous in her blood. So she had come back, run away at less than a moments notice as had Bill Dale before her, and how good it seemed to be at home She would have gone to see the men, had 1t not been that she feared she would be {. bother.
 There was another interesting sight when she had reached the crest of David Moreland's mountain. In the upper end of the broad valley, mid way between the settlement" and the opening of the Moreland coal vein, two large buildings were well along in
 their course of construction.

 CHAPTER iX-Continued.

Came a silence that was heavy Each was depending upon the other to make the advance. The two clansmen stared at each other more and more sharply, and soon shadows of bitter ness began to creep into their eyes.
 Then Major Bradley guest of Ben Littleford, strode into the room with patrician and soldierly air, and he understood the situation perfectly
 "Gentlemen," he urged, shake hands. Be friends"
 They didn't. Neither seemed to have heard the major. It angered Bill Dale. His Knowledge of these feud- fists, these grown-up children, was not

doesn't always see things in the true light. You'll go back, won't you?"
 She bent toward him and asked pointedly:
 Bill Dale, what makes you so anx- ious fo' me to go?"
 Because readily, T want you to have an education.'
 What makes you want me to have education, Bill Dale?'
 Because you'd be such a splendid woman, if you had an education"
 Babe Littleford pursued with child like eagerness: And what makes you want me to be such a s-splendid woman?'
 Dale lifted his gray eyes and an swered her frankly:
 Because 1 expect to marry you some day"
 Babe Littleford blushed deeply. Her eyes were glad, filled with rejoicing. If he didn't love her now, at least just a weeny-teeny bit, he wouldn't be thinking of marrying her some day, certainly, and this conclusion made her happier than she had ever been in all her life before. She wished wildly that she could hug him with all her might-and she had big notion to dc it. But what would he think of her?
 We'll, there would come day when she would surely hug him with all hel might. She would simply break his blessed bones, almost.
 "Will you go to Patricia tomorrow?' he asked
 She really believed that she ought to go. But the thought of leaving him

yet very thorough. He went to his feet. John Moreland, too, arose.
 Wed as well go, hadn't we?" Dale clipped, and there was disgust in his voice.
 T reckon we had" agreed More land.
 They walked out of the cabin, leav- ing Major Bradley and Ben Littleford gazing silently after them. At the gate Dale caught John Moreland's sleeve and halted him.
 "Why on earth" he demanded, didn't you make the break?'
 Bill Dale, I went into his house "
 Dale put his hands on one of the weatherbeaten gateposts and looked over to where a bright star burned like a beacon light above the pine fringed crest of David Morelands mountain He continued to look at the star, his, face gray, until it glim- mered
 Then he began to blame himself he was the hope of benighted peo- pie. and he had foolishly lost his tenn

Foul Jerusalem Cisterns.

The reservoir built by Pontius Pilate 2,000 years ago, 13 miles south of Jerusalem, has been enlarged to hold 5,000,000 gallons of water. Be- fore this engineering work, the Holy city was dependent upon local rain fall for it's water Some of the cis- terms in which the rain was collected had not been cleaned for 100 years or more.

 When Dale returned to John More lands cabin from having seen Babe Littleford safely to her fathers door, he found Major Bradley and By Heck waiting at the gate. Heck had some important, bad news, he said.
 Better not tell me about it until after supper" replied Dale I'm as hungry as you ever were, By"
 They went in to sit down to one of the best meals Addie Moreland had ever prepared When they had fin- ished eating, John Moreland led the way into the best room, where they took chairs. The major produced cigars. By Heck, swollen with a feel ing of greatness, lighted the wrong end of his weed, faced Dale, and be- gan to unburden his mind of it's weight of information.

New York, Aug 22-Husbands are a decided drawback to the successful attainment of a, career, in the opinion of Rose Ponsel1e, Metropolitan opera diva, of 260 Riverside drive.
 Her sister, Carmela, recently an nounced her secret marriage to and subsequent divorce from Dr. Henry GiamOrini, prominent surgeon of New Haven. The home of the Ponselle sisters is in Meriden, where the fam fly is known as Ponzillo.
 Carmela's divorce from the doctor was not due to a clash of tempera- ments. The couple led a harmonious married life for six months. When poverty threatened the home in Meriden. and duty impeiied both her self and her famous sister to keep the wolf from the door. both felt they must go out into the world to preserve the home This family situation was the beginning of a great career For four years Carnela struggled by her self, living in hall bedrooms, working in a restaurant as a cashier by day and singing in cabarets by night. And 61rate in his contention that mar Fsed women should not have careers" :"
 After waiting for four years for Dr: 0samorint to change his mind about careers, Carmela decided to live her own life.
