trust" stated.
''All right. You win"
We came at last to the Union sta
ton, Dolan and myself. When the
train arrived we were waiting with
curious eyes on the platform outside
the gates. Finally after the crush had
passed, there came through the opening
two men carrying the limp form of q

while the detective rested in the rear

We drove for a time in silence. Then
Dolan began asking questions. Occas-
ionally he would turn and face the de-
tective. The latter evaded some of the
queries as though the driver had no
right to ask.
AS the questions became more init
mately connected with the robbery, it
seemed to me that they also were impu-
dent. This was a new side of Dolan
and I was disagreeably impressed. I
almost wished the detective would tell
him to attend to his own afafirs.
Finally the detective said: II must
telephone to headquarters. Take me
to a place where can find phone"

BEWARE THE
COUCHiOR COLD
THAT HANGS ON

Chronic coughs and persistent colds
lead to serious lung trouble. You can
stop them now with Circumcision, an
emuIsified creosote that is pleasant to
take. Creomulsion is a new medical
discovery with twofold action; 1t soothea
and heals the infiamed membranes and
kills the germ.
OF all known drugs, creosote Is rec
0gnizod by the medical fraternity as the
greatest healing agency for the treat
ment OF chronic coughs and colds and
other forms Of throat and lung troubles.
Creomulsion contains, in addition to
creosote, other healing elements which
soothe and heal the inflamed mem
branes and stop the irritation and in
Illumination, while the creosote goes on
to the stomach, is absorbed into the
blood, attacks the seat Of the trouble
and destroys the germs that lead to
consumption.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac-
tory in the treatment OF chronic coughs
and colds, bronchial asthma, catarrhal
bronchitis and other forms OF throat
and lung diseases, and is excellent for
building up the system after colds or
the FLU. Money refunded IL any cough

sounds rather sentimental, yet believe
that many have been inspired to do the
nice things by coming in contact with
some one who takes it for granted that
they are going to be nice.
Why are most people straight and
kindly with children? Not because
they of necessity love children, not be-
cause they particularly care what hap
pens to them. 1t is because the implicit
confidence of the child in their good
ness and kindness inspires in them a
self-respect, desire to prove that the
child is not wrong in its confidence, a
desire, in other words, to live up to
that unexpressed belief in them.
between adults. Expect politeness, con-
sideration or respect from someone who.
as rule, meets with suspicion and de-
fensiveness and you will very often
surprise and inspire them into giving
you the thing which you expect.

house, however, got into conversation
with him and very soon he was telling
me in detail about his wife and two
little boys and his many extremely
sensible ideas on the bringing up of
children. He was one of the incest men

home to me again the absurdity of
forming superficial opinions. Here was

MATERIAL THINGS

The love of self is the love not only
of honor, glory, fame and distinction,
but also of meriting the seeking after
high posts and employment and thus of
bearing rule over others. No man of
sound reason can condemn riches or
wealth because in the body polite they
are like blood in the animal body.
Everyone is bound to provide himself
with the necessities of life-food, raj
ment, a house to dwell in also for his
family for the time present and the time
to come.-Emanuel Swendenborg.
