Little Stories For Bedtime
tBy THORNTON BURGEss,

he ran, taking no pains to hide his tracks. Then he made a wide turn and headed straight back in the direction he had just come from, only some lit- tie distance from the tracks he had made when .gsing the other way. Half way back to the place where he had started Lightfoot lay down behind the bushy, thick top of fallen hemlock tree. From there he could see the little open place through which he had run a little while before. On this he kept his eyes fixed. If the hunter really was following him he would have to pass across that open place.
 . It was very still in the Green Forest, save for the gentle rustic of falling leaves. It was very beautiful there. It didn't seem possible that danger for any one could be lurking in such beau tiful place. But it was. Lightfoot had not been long in his hiding place when his watchful eyes saw something nov ing among the trees. In a moment a hunter stepped out into that open place, his eyes fixed on the ground, and in his hands a terrible gun. Lightfoot had found out what he wanted to know. That hunter was following him; he was following his tracks. Lightfoot waited until the hunter had passed from sight. Then, without making a sound, he got to his feet and stole swiftly away. He knew now what to do. He must get somewhere where the ground was hard and his tracks would not show. Then it would be an easy matter to get away from that hunter.
 'The trouble is," thought Lightfoot, "in getting away from that hunter, I may run right away from that hunter into another. If it were only one hunt CT I wouldn't mind. It wouldn't be so unfair. But the Green Forest is or soon will be full of them. Then, what can a poor deer do but trust to luck And luck is a pretty poor thing to trust to-"

(By Associated PresS.)

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 6.-1n support of their plea of self-defense, attorneys for Lem Motlow, wealthy Tennessee dlstlller, charged with the murder of Charles T. Pulls, Pullman conductor on Louls- vile and Nashville train last March IT, today introduced photographs, diagrams, character witnesses and finally chased on the stand the conductor of the train, who testified that the distiller had made complaint to him that he had trouble in getting his berth prepared.
 Photographs and diagrams on the Pullman coach introduced by the de- fense were admitted in evidence by Cir cult Judge Hamilton, over the objection Of the state The defense hoped to show by the photographs that Joseph Broida, il passenger and witness for the state, could not have seen the shooting from his position in the coach.
 The major portion of today's session, however, was given over to character witnesses including Judge Malcolm K. Patterson, former Tennessee governor !; w. R. Cole, president of the Nashville, Chattanoof and St. Louis railroad; W. c. Pollard. insurance agent; Judge Floyd Estill of Chattanooga, and Gov crnor Austin Peay of Tennessee, all of

Ex-German Province Is Fond Of
 Religious Liberty

PARIS, Dec. 6.-Premier Herriot, who defeated Poincare in the last na' tional elections, will have more diff cult task when he tries to bring Alsace and Lorraine, nominally French but religiously German, back ' into the radical fold. The inhabitants of the restored" provinces have not forgotten that Germany, while suppressing po- litical liberty, gave them religious free dom and they dislike the regime of absolute divorce between church and state which exists in France.
 Twelve of the IA deputies represent ing Alsace and Lorraine in the cham Der of deputies have made a formal protest against the abolition of the Con- cordat, or conditions regulating the re- lations between the pope and the head of the French republic. But Premier Herriott and the party that sent him to power cannot see why any part of France should have a separate religious law. They see in the demand of Alsace and Lorraine the hand of Germany.

QUART OF WATER
 CLEANS KIDNEYS
Take a Little Salts if Your Back Hurts, or Bladder Is
 Troubling You

No man or woman can make a mis- ally, says a well-known authority take by flushing the kidneys occasion Eating too much rich food creates acids, which excite the kidneys. They become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood. Then we get sick. Rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinUy disorders often come from sluggish kidneys.
 The moment you feel dull ache in the kidneys, or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by sensation of scalding begin drinking a quart of water each day, also get about four ounces of lad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water be- fore breakfast, and in few days your kidneys may act fine.
 This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and has been used for years to flush and stimulate the kidneys; also to help neutralize the acids in the system, so they no longer cause irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive; makes a delightful effervescent Whitewater drink which everyone should take now and then to help keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby often avoiding serious kidney complications. By all means have your physician examine your kidneys at least twice 6 year.-Adv.
