Have you been running around with Helen Van Ness 7" RA His tone and manner angered me yond measure. 'John, I will not quarrel or discuss personal matters With you over the phone. Nor will I allow you to speak to me in that tone of voice." I'm your wife." And In my rage I hung up the re- celver, : It seemed only an instant before it rang again. For a time I paid ne attention to it, but the jangle was so incessant that I finally said, "Hello!" "You may think this is very smart, my lady, for you know very well that I can't ride around this town and come over to the house without getting every confounded reporter in the ctiy on my heels.

If Mr. Drury would take Mr, Bus- hell into the Cabinet, I do not think he would have so hard a time to get a constituency to open up for him. ; He would make a capital representa- tive for the farmers and a man no one need be doubtful of, He is clean, honest and outspoken in his views, 7% and when he goes after anything he generally gets what he wants. | He knows the needs of the farm- ers as well as the labor and business needs, and not alone would he make a good rural representative, but also for a city. The agricultural fairs would be well looked after, and that is one great stimulus to the farmers. It is also a great benefit to the cities and towns in which the fairs are held. Look at the amount of money spent in the few days of the fair .in our city. People come for miles about who never come afy other time.

FRANCES HOW TO TREAT STOMACH TROUBLE A Tonic Medicine is Needed to Build Up the Digestive Organs. The old-fashioned methods of treating stomach diseases are being i ed. The trouble with the old- fashioned methods was that whén the treatment wag stopped the trouble returned in an, aggravated form, The modern method of treating in- digestion and other forms of stomach trouble ix to tone up the stomach and glands to their normal work. , Every step toward recovery is a step gained not to be lost again. The recovery of the appetite, the disappearance of pain after eating, the absence of gas, are steps on the road to health that those who have tried the tonic treat- ment remember distinctly. Dr. 'Wil- liams Pink Pills Are a tonic every constituent of which is elpful in bullding up the digestive organs, and therefore the very best remedy- for simple or chronic cases of stomach trouble. The success of the treat- ment is best known by hundreds of cases lke the following: Mrs. Chas. rg cton, Ont., says:--"For up- ferment 1 my stomach, and I would béich gas with a burning sensation. Often I would be troubled with nau- sea, sick headache and dizziness. Notwithstanding that I was under medical treatment the trouble grew S0 bad, that I would only eat when absolutely forced to, and I was'in constant misery. I was finally, ad- vised to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills and had only been using them a few weeks when I found th. were help- ng me. I very gladly continued their use and the result {s they have thade me a well woman, every vestige of the trouble having disappeared. 1 am go grateful for what Dr, Williams Pink Pills strongly advise any who may be suf- fering from stomach trouble to give them a fair trial, and I believe that lke myself they will find a sure cure."

His Motto. «New York, Feb. 12--"Do you believe that there is really any such thing as growing old?" : This is the question that wes put to Thomas A. Edison, grand old man of American science, on the éve of his seventy-third birthday. And here is Thomas Edison's reply : "If man delighted in studying the natural element in' which he exists, and if he used this knowledge to pro- tect his body against. the malignant Pre eA ---- i -------- THOMAS EDISON actions of his environment, I think that he would live at least twice as. long as now, with his mentality un- impaired at the end of life. "As man learns more of his en-! vironment and is thus able to protect himself more and more, there is no reason that I can see why his form of life should not be as long as that of the Sequoia trees of California, which is several thousand years."
