This great medicine OF 80 in
gradients was not designed to
afford mere temporary relief. It
strikes far more deeply than that
and attacks the very causes of ills
OF the stomach. liver. kidneys and
bowels. and rheumatism, neuritis
and nervousness. There are thou
sands Of men and women of all
ages who have eagerly endorsed and
praised this Super-medicine because
OF the relief that it has brought to
them. Now comes Mrs. Sadie Sui
grove, Route No. l, Edgewood, near
indianapolis. The Konjola Man, at
the Hook dependable drug store,
Illinois and Washington streets, In
dianapoliS. is prepared to tell you
about Konjola. 1t is well for all
sufferers who have been baffled in
their search for health to see him at
once. Here is what Mrs. Sulgrove
said to The Konjola Man about her
case:
Il suffered with a painful ailment
OF the stomach and kidneys for
eight years. Try as would. could
find no relief from my troubles. Ac-
cumulated stomach gases after the
simplest meal bloated me until the
cramping pains were frightful and
became short of breath and dizzy.
I had severe back pains and fire.
quent bladder actions. My feet
and ankles became so swollen that
I was forced to go to bed where
remained nearly helpless for three
months. I seemed to grow worse
instead Of better with each treat
ment or medicine I tried.
II had little faith in any medicines
but by the time I had completed
nv fifth bottle of Konjola I was so
improved III health that 1 left my
bed and began to get about again.
My stomach scarcely ever troubles
me now and my kidneys are
functioning perfectly. 1 no longer
have dizzy spells and headaches
The swelling has completely left my
feet and ankles and neither give
me any pain s. or inconvenience.
Bladder actions are normal and my
nerves are in better condition than
they have been in years. In fact
my general health is so improved
that I am enjoying life and my
work is no long drudgery."
There is a real lesson to be
learned from these grateful en-
dorsementS. Why not give Konjola
a chance in your case? The ex-
pense is inconsiderable and there is
much reason for hope.
The Konjola Man is at Hooks de-
pendable drug store, Illinois and
Washington streets. Indianapolis,
where he is meeting the public
daily. explaining the merits of this
new and different medicine.

 Bob whistled. Looks like inside work"
 But Laura had known the Adamses too long not to be certain they were guiltless. Bob's eyes held more concern for the slim wonderful girl than for the clock. Don't you worry" he admonished. I'm going to trace this. Please he pleaded, don't worry"
 Because Laura didn't want Bob to think her foolish, she hadn't spoken about the mystery in the office. But for days she'd had a feeling that strange hands had ar ranged things at her desk. She wasn't positive at first. It was still orderly but something would be where she thought she hadn't put it. Bertha couldn't explain it either. So the TWO had arranged things at different angles on the desk just before they left, nights They'd locked the office. In the

THE CHERRY LOGS KNEW
 IT WAS CHRISTMAS TIME

The woodshed was filled with logs. They reached up to the ceil- ing and there were so many some were lying outside the woodshed. They would be put inside when there was room made for them. They would burr we'll, too, as they were fine and d,y, having been cut the year before.
 And at Christmas time it didn't matter how many logs were burned. s-At other times perhaps one was more economical with the fire, letting it die down earlier in the evening, or not putting on log when one might have been nice for the evening ahead.
 But at Christmas time nothing mattered. Everyone burned as many Hogs as possible. s
 . A splendid roaring fire was kept up all the time, and if the fire did not burn brightly at once no one cared whether lots of kind lling was used Z. ., .g.
 It was Christmas time and. the fire must be kept very bright. The cheery logs knew that.-Mary Gra- ham Bonner.

for that, and Laura. was saving every penny toward it. Aas5
 But by Christmas she'd have enough to send to Ernest Hamil- ton, a. total stranger, the most ex- pensive present she had ever bought.
 With my first of December check I'm going to send it to the clockmakers, she told Bertha and Bob, her two best friends.
 But one morning just before that Laura had missed the old clock It was an awful feeling. She couldn't believe it. Neither could Mrs. Adams, the saretaker's wife.
 Its spirits, Miss Bradon," Mrs. Adams gasped. Your dead ain't gonna see that clock leave the family! Past week I've had a feel in"
 Laura didn't listen to Mrs. Adams sincere, but terrifying the ories.
 It must have been stolen. But, by whom? A stranger couldn't slip unnoticed into Culver where everybody knows everybody else.
 And" Bob reasoned as he any I,aIlra talked it over the next day,

morning, paper which had been vertical would be perpendicular. Ar ink well would be moved. Nothing would be missing.
 There was something so strange about it that Laura's nerves tight ened. I'm going to find out about this" she determined.
 When Bob waited as he always did to stroll the seven blocks to her corner, he exclaimed. Laura you're pale You ought to get more help during Christmas week. I'd help free of charge"
 Its 'ag'in' the law Bob. Thanks anyway" Laura smiled into his serious eyes.
 Bob was tall and straight and good looking. He'd been practicing law in Culver for almost a year and Culver people were sayin, At last there's a fellow good enough for Laura only it's funny he'd settle here. All our boys with any git, go to the city"
 "A lawyers got to start in a s m all place." Bob explained to Laura. .
 But Bob never intimated that she was more to him than a very
