and publishers would not look at t.
and Daylight was now using the •
gruntled author in a little Pri^at®
secret service system he had bee
compelled to establish for WmseR.
Jones, who affected to be surprised at
nothing after his crushing experience,
betrayed no surprise now when tne
task was given him to locate the pur-
chaser of a certain sorrel mare. ^
"How high shall I pay for her? he
i asked. .
“Any price. You've got to get her,
that's the point. Drive a sharp bar-
gain so as not to excite suspicion, nut
get her. Then you deliver her to that

livered her. Savvee?" •
But the week had not passed, when
j Daylight noted the flash in Dede's
eyes that boded trouble.
"Something's gone wrong—what Is
It?" he said boldly.
“Mab." she said. "The man who
bought her has sold her already. If
I thought you had anything to do with
It—”
“1 don't even know who you sold
her to.” was Daylight's answer. “And
what's more. I'm not bothering my
head about her. She was your mare,
and it's none of my business what you
j did with her. You haven't got her,
j that's sure, and worse luck. And

do for him. Selling that mare of
yours won’t send him to Germany.
And that’s what his own doctors say
he needs—that crack German spe-
cialist who rips a man s hones and
muscles tnto pulp and then moulds
them all over again. Well, I want tp
l send him to Germany and give that
crack a flutter, that's all.”
“If it were only possible!" she said,
half breathlessly, and wholly without
anger. “Only it isn’t, and you know
it isn't. I cant accept money from
I you—"
Now look here. Miss Mason,
i You've got to get some foolish no-
tions out of your head. This money
notion is one of the funniest things I've
seen. Suppose you was falling over a
cliff, wouldn't It be all right for me to
reach out and catch you by the arm?
Sure tt would. You're standing In
your brother's way. No matter what
notions you've got in your head,
you've got to get out of the way and
give him a chance. Will you let me
go and see him and talk it over with
him? ru make it a hard and fast
business proposition. Ill stake him to
get well, and that's all. and charge
him interest."
She visibly hesitated.
"And Just remember one thing. Miss
| Mason: it's his leg. not yours."
Still she refrained from givtng her

' strengthening his position.
"And remember, I go over to see

deal with him better without women-
folks around. I it go over tomorrow

Sikeston, Mo. - “For seven years I
suffered everything. I was in bed for
four or five days at a
time every month,
and so weak I could
hardly walk. I had

and headache, and
was so nervous and
weak that I dreaded
to see anyone or
have anyone move in

have”an operation. I would not listen to
that and when a friend of my husband’s
told him about Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg-
etable Compound and what it had dons
for his wife, I was willing to take it.
Now I look the picture of health and feel
like it, too. I can do all my own house-
work, work in the garden and entertain
company and enjoy them, and can walk
as far as any ordinary woman, any day
in the week. I wish I could talk to every
suffering woman and girl, and tell them
what Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound has done for me. Mn.
Dema Bethune, Sikeston, Mo.
Remember, the remedy which did this
was Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound.
It has helped thousands of women who
have been troubled with displacements,
inflammation, ulceration, tumors, irreg-
ularities, periodic pains, backache, that
bearing down feeling, indigestion, and
nervous prostration, after all other mean*
have failed. Why don’t you try it?

Child's Reasoning.
“I can't tell you anything about my
grandpa," said solemn little Eustace,
questioned by a happier comrade as to
his more recent ancestor, "because I
never had any. AU my grandparents
died before I was born.”
“But, you had grandparents just the
same, dear.” Interpolated a listening
adult. "The fact that they died before
you were horn doesn't alter the fact
that they were your grandparents."
"But If our fathers and mothers had
died before we were horn they
wouldn't have been our fathers and
mothers, would they?' the wondering
child questioned “So I don't see how
what you say can be true.”
