can I knew was that one didn't

"All 1 knew was that one didn't
ask questions about him."
1t may have been meant as a hint
to any too curious guest not to ask
more questions, or a reminder to his
host not to talk too freely in front
of strangers. although he ave it the
sound of a mere statement of fact.
But the subject dropped.
At about the time when Mark and
his cousin were at their business at
The Red House. an attractive gentle
man of the name of Antony Gilling-
ham was handing up his ticket at
Woodham station and asking the
way to the village. He is an inn
portant person in this story, SO that
it is as well we should know some
thing about him at the top of the
hill on some excuse, and nave a good
look at him.
The first thing we realize is that
he is doing more of the looking than
we are. Above a ~clean-cut, clean
shaver face, he carries a pair OF
! gray eyes which seem to be absorb
ing every detail of our person. TIC
strangers this look is almost alarm
ing at first, until they discover that
his mind is very often elsewhere;
that he has, so to speak, left his eyes
on guard, while he himself follows q
train of thought in another direc-
ton.
He had seen a good deal of the
world with those eyes. When at the
age of twenty-one he came into his
mothers money, f4O0 a year, old
Gillingham looked up from the
"Stockbreeders' Gazette to ask him
what he was going to do.
See the world" said Antony.
"Well, send me a line from Amer
lea, or wherever you get to-.
Right" said Antony.
Old Dillingham; returned to his
paper.
Antony, however, had no intention
of going further away than London
His idea of seeing the world was
to see, not countries. but people; and
to see them from as nan angles a.
possible. There are all sorts if you
know how to look at them. So An
tony looked at them-from various
strange corners; from the view
point of the valet, the newspaper.

ant. With the independence of f40C
a year behind him, he enjoyed Il
immensely.
He was now thirty. He had como
to Woodham for a holiday, because
he liked the look of the station. His
ticket entitled him to travel further
but Woodham attracted him. Why

Jaques' Little Wonder CAPSULES Relieved
Obstinate Intestinal Indigestion

L. n. Phillips. Of 26S West 12sth
street. New York City. Is one Of the
hundreds who heartily praise Jaoues'
Little Wonder Capsules. He recent
ly wrote: II have been afflicted for
man. years with an obstinate case
Of intestinal indigestion and consti-
patton for which I have used many
remedies with little benefit. A
friend suggested the use Of Jaoues'
Little Wonder Capsules and I take
pleasure in certifying that they
have been beneficial from the very
start. and I heartily recommend
them to others similarly afflicted"
This Is but one of many testimon-
ials coming from those eager to do
their part toward spreading the
knowledge OF the relief they have
experienced. Jaques' Little Wonder
Capsules are guaranteed to give sat
isfying relief in dyspepsia, datulence.

help much by doing the one thing which they
have been hoping for and planning for years the
building of new home If one-half of the peo-
pie in South Bend who have been planning on
building would actually start building this sum
mer, this city would start on an epoch which

Listen To What Herbert Hoover Has To Say The City With
The Most Building Activity Has No
Competitor

In a recent address, Herbert Hoover said: If
city has good natural advantages, good trans
portation facilities, and good business and manu-
featuring Institutions it need not fear any other
city as far as business is concerned, If it will only
see that it has generous amount of building &C
tivity. The city with the most building activity
has no competitor.
That is sensible business gospel Hoover never
said truer word.
South Bend has natural advantages which are
conceded to be great She has good transporta-
ton facilities She has good business and manu-
featuring institutions. And she has building
activity which is the marvel of this district AS
long as building activity continues and as long
it continues to increase as it has been of recent
weeks, South Bend will have no competitor In
our class.
Building activities in South Bend will help
solve the housing problem More buildings this
summer and fall will give steady employment to
more people. Building activity will give a gen
eral impetus to trade and it will put lot of money
into circulation at time when money must keep
moving if business IS to grow and prosperity con-
tinue 1t will give employment not only to South
Bend people, but to men in the lumber camps
