n word of love had been spoken, hut It
was understood in the house and in the
whole neighborhood, that John Habl

and that some time in the future, as
they should determine, the two good

early start; but before halt the dis
tance had been traversed, they heard
tin sharp whir of John's approaching
buggy wheels. As he flushed by, ho
was bending over In ostentatious
search of something under the seat,
but he gave her a bashful side glance
which plainly said, "Don't be uneasy,
Dorcas. I'll see things go right."
Hy the time he straightened up he
was disappearing round a bend In the
road. Hut the glance had sent a soft
color to her face, which lingered
there through tho long, rough ride,
until finally she was aroused by a
gruff:
"Jerusalom! whoa there, Charlie!"
They were at the junction of two
roads; one led up to the station a
quarter of a mile away, the other went
on to the village two or three times
that distance. Jethro was looking at
her with dismay on his face.
"What is It?" she asked.
"Why why do you reckon you
could walk to the depot?" persuasive
ly. " 'Taln't hut a step. You see,"
apologetically, as he noted the sur
prise on her face, "Hen Pokey's wag
on's Just turning the corner down yon
der, and if ho gets In town ahead of
me, he sells his stuff, and it I get in
ahead of him, I sell my stuff; and If I
sell my stuff, like Miss Hetty counts
on. why, she ain't going to fuss at me
much, see? Of course, I'm here to
take you to the depot, and will now If
you say the word; but It's bound to
put me In behind Hen. And it ain't
hut a step."
Oh. I will walk, Jethro." laughed
Dorcas; and placing a hand upon the
end of the scat she sprang lightly to
the ground. "And you needn't tell
Hetty, either."
It was a very dainty figure that went
up the road to the station; and though
she did not know it, the rich, soft
goods taken from the old chest In the
garret had again come round Into
fashion.
A whistle sounded In the distance,
and Dorcas uttered a low cry of dis
may. The train was approaching, and
she had thought there was plenty of
time. Could she make It by running,
she wondered? Hut a swift glance
toward tho station checked the Im
pulse even as sho sprang forward.
Tho station was still an eighth of a
mile away, and she could see several
carriages driving up to It, and people
standing on the platform. What a
spectacle it would be for them to see
a woman racing with the train; be
sides, she could not hope to reach it
in time. Jethro
There was the swift approach of
carriage wheels, a pair of splendid
bays stoped beside her. and she looked
up Into the reassuring face of a young
drummer, who was selling mowing
machines In tho neighborhood. Before
she was aware of his Intention, ho had
sprung to the ground and lifted her
Into the carriage and they were whirl'
ing away with a long, circling cloud of
dust trailing behind.
"Don't you worry, young lady." the
drummer ehouted cheerily, "I'll ft
you there all right."
What John Haldwln's feelings were
as he stood on tho platform watching,
none but himself ever knew. He saw
Jethro stop and Dorcas get out, then
heard the train whistle and saw her
start to run, and realized that his
place was down there on the dusty
road by her side Instead of with the
curious people at the station. When
the drummer stopped and took her In,
the young farmer's face grew hard and
set, with a firmness his life had never
known before.
He was beside the carriage when It
stopped, and helped her out, and quiet
ly and authoritatively, with all the
spectators looking on, he drew her
arm within his own.
"Come, Dorcas," he said, "we must
hurry to catch the Iraln. I'll get the
tickets. Yes," In ancwer to her won
dering expression, "I'm going right on
with you to where your Aunt lives
sit In the same seat, too, to keep off
drummers and things. And I shall
stay around to come back with yot

A Slight Misunderstanding.
To tho hosiery department of an up
town store went a woman lending by
the hand a dark-skinned, black-haired
llttlo boy. To the salesgirl she said:
"I want a pair of stockings for my

"Five and one-half Is the size," said
the girl. "What color?"
"Black, I think. I.lsle thread."
"Keet white or black?" asked the
salesgirl.
Tho woman looked dazed, then
angry. "You Impertinent hussy!" she
gasped. "Of course my hoy's feet are

Every sufferer from nervous headache
knows how completely it unfits one for
the duties and pleasure of life. Any
little excitement, or over-exertion, or if
regularity brings it on. Sometimes th
pain is over the whole head. Again it
is like a nail driven into the brain, or a
wedgo splitting it open, or a band tight
ening about it. At one time it is all in
the top of the bond, at another it is il
at the base of the skull.
Most headaches can be traced to soma
faulty state of the blood. When the
blood is scanty or charged with poison,
and the nerves are imperfectly nourished
and the digestion weak, one of the com
monest results is frequent and severe
headaches.
The important thing is to get rid of the
di sensed condition of the blood that
causes the attack by the use of a remedy
that will do the work quickly and
thoroughly. What is that remedy ? The
experience of Miss El leu Mclvuuua fur-uishi-s
the answer. She says :
"For more thuii seven years I was a

"I had eczema on the face for five
months, during which time I was In
the care of physicians. My face was
so disfigured I could not go out, and It
was going from bad to worse. A

first night after I washed my face
with Cuticura Soap, and used Cuticura

wonderfully. From that day I was

v-FOR HEALTHY
SlmpU Rule. the Observance) of Which Will Double
Capacity for work and SMeaaur
Dally Exercise.
Clerks, bookkeeper and thousand!
of other indoor workers suffer from
the lack of pure air and muscular ex
erdse. If an attempt is made to be
gin systematic exercise, or an hour or
so Is spent In digging or chopping
wood, undue soreness and fatigue are
produced. Thla disagreeable result
often stops the experiment Instead
of discouraging the trial, the very
soreness should point out the great
need of the body.
If the work were persisted In and
gradually Increased the stiffness would
soon disappear, and leave in its place
a general feeling of increased vigor.
The nerves are strengthened and the
bodily activities quickened. The ef
fect is not alone on the muscles used,
but upon ouch organ. The blood Is
purified acd the digestion strength
ened. The effects of a prolonged sedentary
life are overcome only by working off
the accumulated poisons and creating
an appetite for new pure food. This Is
built up in the body, and thus the
whole man Is renewed.
Exercise must be carefully Increased
and adapted to tho Individual muscu
lar strength. The weakest muscles
must be brought up to the standard
of the others.
For feeble persons who are not
able to do the desired work, massage,
Swedish movements and mechanical
exercises should bo employed.
For more robust persons, walking,
horseback riding, rowing, bicycle rid
ing and especially swimming are to be
recommended.
How to Have a Clear Head.
The man who desires to have a clear

subtle Influences of the universe about
him, alert to respond to every call
made upon it by the bodily organs un
der its supervision ready to receive
impressions from the Infinite Source

thinking the high thoughts of God

select the choicest foodstuffs. These
consist of fruits, nuts, dextrinized
grains that is, well toasted grain
preparations, toasted bread, toasted
wheat flakes, etc. He will eat spar
ingly, never to repletion. He will
exercise out of doors at least two or
three hours daily, living as much of
the time as possible In the open air.
He will sleep eight hours at night.
He will take a vigorous cold bath
every morning on rising, and will take
at least two or three times a week,
warm, cleansing hath, Just before
going to bed at night. He will con
serve for useful work every energy
of mind and body. He will endeavor
to live righteously in the largest sense
of the word.
Night Air and Consumption.
The old fallacy that night air is a
dangerous miasm It not yet dead.
Much has been said about fresh air,
outdoor life and sunshine for tubercu
losis. Many victims have experienced
the healing power In these natural
agencies. But too often the consump
tive, after a day in the sunshine or
4u the cold, crisp winter air, retires
for a night's sleep in a dark, fctuffy,
airtight room. Don't be afraid of
night air.
Open the bedroom to all the sun
possible during the day. The room
will then be dry, though cold. Damp
ness Is dangerous and more apt to oc
cur In a closed than in a wide-open
room. Keep at least one window in
the bedroom open day and night, sum
mer and winter. The door should shut
the chamber off from the rest of tha
house. In the morning the patient
should be taken quickly into a warm
room for the cold sponge bath.
Insidious Poisons.
The poisonous effects resulting
from the use of tea and coffee are
very decidedly manifest to one who
has given thought to this question,
and has made careful observations in
relation to it The sallow complexion,
common among women of the higher
classes who have reached middle life,
the almost universal nervousness
among American women, and many
common digestive disorders, and the
increasing prevalence of nervous or
sick headaches, afford to the experi
enced physician ample evidence of the
toxic or poisonous character of tea,
coffee, and the allied beverages, cocoa
and chocolate. The well-known ef
fect of these drugs In producing wake
fulness, banishing as If by magic the
sensation of fatigue, affords sufficient
evidence of their poisonous character.
No one would doubt for a moment the
poisonous character of a drug capa
ble of producing irresistible drowsi
ness In a person who is not weary.
The power of a drug to produce wake
fulness In a person strongly Inclined
to sleep as the result of fatigue. Is
equally evidence of Its poisonous char
acter. The Only Safeguard Against Tubercu
losis. Tuberculosis is a low-level disease.
People are not subject to it until their
bodies have become weakened and
their whole constitution undermined.
It used to be thought that one could
not have tuberculosis if only he ex
ercised his lungs. A man who had
this disease went to a professor in
Vienna for advice. The professor
aid, "You had better get a horn and
learn to play it, to txerclse your
lungs." "Alas, profeaaor," answered
AND LONG LIFE
the man, "I am a band master now."
To live a natural life Is the only
safeguard against tuberculosis. On
climate may do as well as another if
only you live out of doors, get plenty
of cold, fresh air, bathe the body with
cold water dally, eat simple, nutri
tious food and take as much exercise
as possible without exhausting the
body.
Inherited Consumption.
Some people think that because
their parents died with consumption,
they are doomed by the same plague.
This is not so. Cases of Inherited
consumption are very rare. Thereat
reason why so many In a family suf
fer from tuberculosis Is to be found
elsewhere than In heredity.
The afBIctod member does not know
the necessity for personal cleanliness,
for religiously collecting and burning
all matter spit up. The use of the
ordinary pocket handkerchief and the
washing of It In the family laundry
Is a constant source of danger. Rice
paper handkerchiefs or old linen
should be used and then burned.
The person himself Is almost harm
less. It Is only the lack of care In
scattering the genus that makes him
a dangerous companion. These bad
practices are usually due to Ignorance.
It Is not necessary to Isolate the pa
tient for the protection of tho family.
Each person not affected should
breathe fresh nlr, exercise out of
doors, eat simple food, bathe dally
and sleep eight hours each night.
This will Increase the body's vital
power and resist the deadly geuus
which may bo breathed in. The rest
of the family being thus fortified, the
patient should co-operate in the pro
tection. Let him study to prevent the germs
from being scattered broadcast
through the house. Then let all co
operate In the fresh air cure of the
patient, and he may live lu peace and
pleasure, gradually fighting his way
back to health, and in no way dan
gerous to his friends.
When every consumptive intelli
gently co-operates with the family
and physician, the day of "inherited
consumption" will be passed.
Stomach.
The majority of people never stop
to think that the stomach Is anything
more than a receptacle for things that
have been chewed. They get hold of
something that tastes good and swal
low It into the stomach to get it out
of the way, so there will be room for
something more. That might be alt
right If the stomach were a garbage
box that could bo carried off and
emptied; but nature Intends the stom
ach for another purpose. We are
constructed of what we eat. We should
stop to think of that. We should bo
careful what we swallow, for It bo
comes brain, heart, limbs, blood; and
If we are to have good blood, clear
brains, sound minds, sturdy legs and
strong arms, we must eat food that
is capable of making that sort of tis
