"Since the year 1S94 I have been
troubled with a very bad case of ec-
zema which I have spent hundred! of
dollars trying to cure and I went to I
the hospital but they failed to cure
me and It was getting worse all the
time Five weeks ago my wife bought
a box of Cuticura Ointment and one
cake of Cuticura Soap and I am I
pleased to soy thU I am now com I
pletely cured and well It wae Im-
possible for me to get employment
as my face head and body were cov I
red with It The eczema first ap
peared on the top of my head and it
bad worked all the way around down
the tack of my neck and around to my
throat down my body and around the
hips It Itched so I would be obliged
to scratch It and the flesh was raw
I am now all well and I will bo

Prosperity has ruined many a man
but If a fellow Is going to be ruined at
all that Is the pleasantest way
Superior quality and extra quantity
must win This Is why Defiance Starch
Is taking the place of all others

Don’t call the world dirty becsuss

If your religion Is of the kind that
can be easily hidden it can as easily
be lost
The only reason some men won’t go

KNIFED
Coffee Knifed an Old Soldier
An old soldier released from cof-
lee at 72 recovered hla health and tells
about it as follows:
"I stuck to coffee for years although
It knifed me again and again
“About eight years ago (as a result
of coffee drinking which congested my
liver) 1 was taken with a very severs
attack of malarial fever
"1 would apparently recover and
start about my usual work only to suf-
fer a relapse After this had been
repeated several times during the year
I was again taken violently ill
“The Doctor said he had carefully
studied my case and it was either ‘quit
coffee or die’ advising me to take Pos-
turn in Its place I had always thought
coffee one of my dearest friends and
especially when sick and I was very
much taken back by the Doctor’s deci-
sion for I hadn’t euspected the coffee
I drank could possibly cause my trou
ble
I thought it over for a few minutes
and finally told the Doctor I‘ would
make the change Postum was pro-
cured for me the same day and made
according to directions well I liked
it and stuck to it and since then I
have been a n§w man The change in
health began in a few days and sur-
prised me and now although I am
seventy-two years of age I do lots of
hard work and for the past month
have been teaming driving sixteen
miles a day besides loading aqd un-
loading the wagon Tint’s what Pos-
tum In the place of coffee has dons
tor me I now like the Postum as well
as I did cbffee
"I have known pedple who did not
care for Postum at first but after hav-
ing learned to make it properly accord
ing to directions they have com9 to
like It as well as coffee I never miss
a chance to praise It” Name given
by Postum JCo Battle Creek Mich

CHAPTER XVI— Continued
In vain does the bull-fighter seek to
Hose The American Is surrounded
by what seems to be a living wall of
fists and every time Barcelona make
a fierce lunge foiward something
strikes him squarely In the chest or
administers between the eyes s blow
that makes him see stars
lie realizes that the field Is lost
since these two men must be heavily
armed and will not scruple to use
weapons If they are pressed
The Mexicans engaged with Colonel
Bob have had moat of their enthusi-
asm knocked out of them and one by
one are shrinking away to nurse their
swollen faces
True a bull-like voice roars oaths
and endeavors to encourage the assail-
ants by the declaration that victory Is
sure and near at hand but the owner
Is nowhere to be seen since the wily
Benor thinks too much of his comfort
to Join In a melee like this
Colonel Bob’s enthusiasm seems tc
Increase rather than diminish and the
last brace of enemies who endeavor
to run amuck with him come to the
conclusion that they have struck what
seems to be a human threshing ma-
chine so quickly are they doubled up
and put to sleep
Grasping the situation the Mexican
bravo gives up the battle— he shouts
In a furious voice "We will meet
again!” and then plunges Into the ob-
scurity of the thicket to escape fur-
ther punishment at the hands of the
American
So far as enemies are concerned
the two comrades have won the bat
tie but they are as yet far from safe
Of course Pick’s first thought con-
cerns those for whom they waged war
"Pauline!" he gasps short of
breath
"Here — safe!" comes the cheering
response and the girl from New York
dawns upon his vision
"And Dora?"
There Is no need to ask that since
Colonel Bob already has that unique
pei son in fils arms and loudly la
ments the fact that he could not have
totally annihilated the little wretch
who dared to lay his hand upon her
which terrible threats cause the mis-
erable professor to shiver In hl3 thick-
et hiding place near by
"How shall we get out?" demands
Dick awake to the exigency of the
moment
"In the same way Dcanfe In" Bob
replies promptly
"How was that?"
"Walt until I dislodge that bellow-
ing senor from yonder bushes— I can’t
talk while he keep3 up that shouting
just as though his men were still at
us tooth and nail"
As he speaks Colonel Bob throws
his arm forward— there Is a flash a
report followed Immediately by a sec-
ond one
The bellowing ceases Instantly
‘Killed him?" says Dick with a
sigh of relief
"No such good luck” returns Bob
carelessly "Hark! you-hear him mak-
ing a bee line for the hacienda now
No more howling from the Senor Lo-
pez at present Come this way— here
you will see where I came In”
“ The door In the wall I was look-
ing for”
"I heard only what must have been
your last signal though w’onderlng
what all the row could be about and
guessing you had a hand In it Now
we’ve left the garden of Morales be-
hind What you see here Is the La
VIga Canal”
“How shall we get home?— we have
no vehicle” remarks Dick puzzled for
once
"There is a boat here — perhaps that
will take us part of the way— the
ladies at least Ha! two boats—
we are In luck It seems”
Colonel Bob soon settles with the
owners of the craft who live upon the
bank bf the canal and take pleasure
parties to the floating gardens The
boat can be left at a certain point-
money is paid over twd with the
moon wheeling Into view making the
scene very romantic our four friends
Etart along the water way of the
Mexican capital bound for the Hotel
Iturbe
CHAPTER XVII
The Clique of the Alameda
The situation Is one well calculated
to arouse thoughts of love — the soft
moonlight the odorous night air the
splash of the paddles from' which
drops of molten silver seem to fall
as they are raised from the water
and besides the scene of danger
which has Just been shared In com-
mon— these things bring loving hearts
closer together than ever
Naturally Dick allows his compan
Ion to draw ahead some little distance
miBE
©rNEWnraas
though kceflng In plain sight of each
ether They are neither of them In
any hurry as the danger is past at
least for the time being
Tender thoughts are born of the
occasion— Pauline cn her part feels
very near and dear to Dick because
of the pertinacity with whlclwhe de-
fends her and the manner tn which
he watches over her Interests — while
Dick has learned of late how very
precious Pauline Westerly has be-
come and how essential to his happi-
ness She questions him eagerly— on his
part he answers with truth and deli-
cacy Still she can read between the
lines and knows that it was’ anxiety
for her welfare and nothing else that
has Influenced him In his movements
She hears how he took the place
of the driver and laughs merrily to
think how he helped her Into and out
of the coach with all the gallantry
of a French Jehu than which higher
praise could not be bestowed Gradu-
ally Dick bt-ciftnea fervent the occa-
sion is very promising and ho can-
rot withstand the temptation to
speak so he tells his love In Just Pae
way any one who knows him well
would expect plainly simply yet
with an eloquence that sincerity of
heart alone can give
Pauline Is deeply thrilled by his
frank declaration Bbe believes In him
entirely and has had many opportuni-
ties of late to read the man to whom
her heart has gone out
So she answers him In Just the
same Impulsive manner as that In
which he has told his love tells him
that her heart has long been In his
keeping that she believes tn him as
she never dreamed she would In any
man and that she is proud Indeed of
the affection he ha3 declared for her
So it is all settled without any
great fuss and in a business matter-of-fact
way that seems quite suited to
Such people It would be folly to ex-
w
He Presses Against the Sheriff
pect a quiet undemonstrative man
to go into rhapsodies when declaring
bl3 affection for a lady but at the
same time' the manner of saying it
would convince one that every word
came direct from an honest heart
Their future looks rosy-hued at
present and yet no one knows better
than Dick that there may be some
rocky hills to climb before they reach
the goal of connubial bliss
When the canal no longer serves
their purpose they leave the canoes
tied up where the owners have direct-
ed them and strike across a street
that will bring them to the grand
plaza
It Is nearly midnight but the good
people of the City of Mexico have ap-
parently not even thought of retiring
On all sides can be heard voices sing-
ing or the sweet throbbing of man-
dolins that are touched by the deli-
cate fingers of dark-haired maidens
The moon dispels one of the bug-
bears attending visitors to the Mexi-
can capital darkness and makes It
safer to move about Our friends
have no further adventures on this
night but arrive at the Hotel Iturbe
at last a street car taking them the
concluding few blocks
When the ladies have gone to their
rooms the best the house affords as
becomes the girl who manages the
great El Dorado Mine Dick and Bob
smoke and talk and elevate their !
feet on the Tailing of the piazza be- j
low as true-born Americans alone
have the right to do
Dick Is not inclined to be confiden-
tial In matters that concern his own
private life but with Bob it is another
matter he feels that he has a deep
Interest in his chum’s welfare- and
that if there has been an understand-
ing between Pauline and himself he
Bob ought to know it in order that
he may rejoice with his friend
So Dick tells the fact In his terse
way and owns up that Pauline and
himself have had an understanding
snd are pletel to one another upon
hearing which the Impulsive colonel
springs to his feet overturning his
chair and clutches the excctant out-
stretched hand of his comrade with
the fury of a young avalanche
"A thousand congratulations my
boy I wish you Joy uron the occa-
sion and may you see many of them
that Is I mean confound the luck
what do I mean? At any rate you've
certainly got the handsomest and
best of course barring one girl In
Mexico and may you bo ulverized if
ever you give her occasion to wish
she’d never met Dick Denver"
"Ditto yourself Pob old boy Now
sit down like a Christian and let's
talk horse sense Heaven knows we’ve
enough to talk about that wretched
old senor persists 'n keeping It warm
for us and I'm of the opinion he’ll
never lot up until by accident or de-
sign he receives his quietus"
"Well he’s going to get it one of
these days Bob Ihrlan has a marked
bullet In his revolver to-day that's
checked through to reach Lopez and
as sure as you live Dick I'U fetch
him You look out for Barcelona—
when you fire at him cut the third
silver button on his Jacket to the left
and you reach his heart"
As the words are spoken a dusky
figure that has been crouching In the
shadow of the piazza below their feet
bugs the ground more closely than
ever as though the party takes this
threat ns a personal affair He Is
evidently there for no good purpose
this skulker in the shadow
-When gentlemen talk about person-
al business they should be certain
that no eavesdropper hangs In the
shadow of the piazza
They talk on in a disjointed way
until a clock In a church near by
warns them that It is time they retir-
ed If they mean to get any sleep A
couple of half-smoked cigars fall near
the crouching figure one actually
striking him In the face at which ho
gives a start ns though he has reason
for feeling a hatred toward Yankee
cigars
After they had gone he crawls
away and as he rises to his full
height reveals the figure of the Mexi-
can bull fighter Tordas Barcelona
when the explanation of his hatred for
cigars Is made manifest
The day dawns
It promises a fair and pleasant spell
of weather for this time of year and
the Americans quartered at the
Iturbe profit by It Pauline desires to
see all that Is possible of the Mexican
capital during their limited stay Dick
and Colonel Bob take turns In escort-
ing the girls around They have other
work to do which the one not en-
gaged In this pleasant task looks
after
In the City of Mexico there are at
all times of the year and particularly
during the winter season numbers of
Americans to be found It would be
an easy task to make up a fair regi-
ment if all would enlist
Among these men our friends work
picking out one here and one there
and using great care that the parties
selected possess the proper requisites
for such a business A couple of
Mexicans are hired with the rest a3
they do not want to excite the anger
of the natives by what might appear
to be an Invasion of a foreign band
Every man is required to arm him-
self thoroughly and their weapons
will be looked after before the expedi-
tion leaves in the morning There may
be heavy fighting ahead and Dick
Denver knows what It means to run
across the desperate bandits of the
Sierra Madres at home
Then there axe provisions tents
horses and numerous other things to
be secured It is fortunate in the first
place that Dick Is thoroughly at home
in all these things and that he Is sup-
plied with any amount of money
through Miss Pauline with which to
carry out hep plans
