Caesar was the surname Of re-
nowned branch of line of Roman
patrician generals with the forename
Julia. They claimed descent from the
sons Of Aeneas, the mythical 1ulus.
Sextus julius Caeser, praetor in
208 B. c., is the earliest by that name
to be mentioned in history. No direct
male descendant was left to bear the
name Of the great julius Caesar. Oc-
tavius, whom he had adopted and who
later became the Emperor Augustus,
took the name. The name passed, also
through adoption, from Augustus to
his immediate successors, Tiberius
and Caligula. The use Of the name
was continued by Claudius and Nero,
although they were not Julii. When
Nero was killed, the use Of Caesar
as family name was discontinued
and 1t became the title Of the reign
ing emperor. The title Caesar was

well as in name, Chenufsio was one of
the greatest of the strange social
centers of the Indians to which pris-

such places existed was fact which
had but recently gained credence in
both the English and French colonies.

Citations which he disrupted in the
name and claim Of the Colonies had
their roots as far back as the third
and fourth generations. Hearts and
homes were broken as well as prison
ers' shackles.
Chenufsio was the Rome Of wide
domain in that period of it's history
when Jeems and Toinette came with
Tiaoga and his warriors. In it were
three hundred people, and at full
strength it numbered sixty fighting
men. It nestled at the edge of large
meadow which the river embraced in

POIs O N
in Your bowels!

Poisons absorbed into the system
from souring waste in the bowels,
cause that dull, headachy, sluggish,
bilious condition; coat, the tongue:

Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin will clear
up trouble like that, gently, harm
lessly, in hurry. The difference it
will make in your feelings over night
will prove its merit to you.
DR.. Caldwell studied constipation
Tor over forty-seven years. This long
experience enabled him to make his
prescription just what men, women,
old people and children need to make
their bowels help themselves. Its
natural, mild, thorough action and
its pleasant taste commend it to
everyone. That's why cdr. Caldwell's

Bad Stomach Cause

You can't expect to have a good

through the body, pimples appear

But these troubles will end quickly
and skin clear up if you will start
today taking Tanlac.
Tanlac is made from herbs, barks
and roots. A tablespoonful before each
meal stimulates the digestion natu.

Fire Statistics

Fire statistics reveal that the total
annual loss by fire is approximately
10000 lives and the ratio of deaths
to injuries is to 21@. While only a
portion Of casualties occur in fires, It
has been estimated that more than
go per cent Of the total number OF
fires involving damage to property
each year take place in the home,
and, according to statistics, there is
a home fire every four minutes. De.
fective fues, chimneys and heating
plants and sparks on the roof are
reported as the 'known originating
causes of largest fire losses" during
1929. During the same year the ma
tional property loss traceable to
these sources was estimated at $780,
100000.

thing was gone and that he and Toi-
nette were the only ones left of those
who had so recently made up their
world seemed a monstrous exaggera-
ton of fact. Toinette, sleeping quiet
ly, forced the truth upon him, and
from the racking visions Of his
thoughts he turned to her with yearn-
Ing to hold her closely in his arms.
Her face was Of childlike loneliness in
the glow of the stars. So complete
was her fatigue that dark dreams did
not mar the solace Of her unconscious
ness. When the night was half gone,
he made pillow Of balsams, and be-
fore he fell asleep he drew Toinette's
hand to him gently and pressed his
lips against it.
Dawn, another day, then night
again. The journey was no longer i'm
possible for Toinette. When she
neared exhaustion, camp was made,
and when she awoke the march was
resumed. Tiaoga called her Sol Yam
Makwun, and the warriors regarded
her with kindlier eyes. AS the days
continued and they witnessed her
courage, their hearts grew warm
toward her, and at times their chances
revealed an admiration and friendli-
ness which were never in Tiaoga's.
These days served also as the bridge
across which Jeems and Toinette were
passing into future that was all their
own, and the poignancy Of the loss
they had suffered was mellowed by
these newer aspects SO vital to them
selves. The world they had known was
fabric which had crashed in ruin
about them-a desolation out Of which
another existence was building itself.
AS the deeper solitudes of the wilder
ness claimed them, this feeling became
bond which nothing could break.
Wherever they went and whatever
happened, they would belong to each
other, for death might separate but it
could not destroy.
On the fourteenth day, Tiaoga sent
a messenger ahead. That evening he
sat on the ground near Toinette, and
Jeems translated what he said. To-
morrow they would reach Hidden
Town, and his people would be ex-
pecting them. There would be great
rejoicing because they had taken
many scalps and had not lost a man.
They would honor her-and Jeems,
accepting them as flesh of their flesh
and bone of their bone. Toinettte
would live as his daughter. Silver
Heels heart would live in her song.
She would be Of the forests-forever.
That was the word he had sent ahead
to Chenufsio. Tiaoga was coming
with his daughter.
He stalked into darkness, and for
time Jeems and Toinette were afraid
to speak the thought which was chok-
ing at their hearts.
"Your children and your children's
children )"
That night Toinette lay staring at
the sky with sleepless eyes.
