PAGE TEN _ NISTER GIVES Tells of Wonderful Change Tanlac Brought In His Wife's Condition. Yet another minister of religion to | give his unqualified endorsement to Tanlac as a medicine of remarkable merit, is the Rev. John Zaetschky, pastor of the Lutheran church, Ohio synod, Calgary, Alberta, who resides at 1920, 515 Street W., in a state- ment made at the Liggett-Findlay ug Store recently. "For nine years my wife suffered from dropsy," he said, "and for the past five years had been In a very bad state of health Her appetite was very poor, and although she ate but very litle she always had a full feel- ing after meals: She nad a drowsy feling all the time from which noth- "ing could arouse her, and felt tired both mentally and physically. She often complained of acute pains across the back which were so bad, that she had to let her work go en- tirely and at night her sleep was very disturbed. Her nervous system be- rame so shattered that the least thing would alarm her, and she was getting worse year by year. She tried all kinds of treatments. and even went to the hospital on several occa- soisn, but always failed to get more i than temporary relief. "We had read much about the merits of Tanlac and finally I bought a bottle. It seemed to do my wife good and so I continued with it. She has now taken three bottles in all, and a decided change for the better hag been the result. She now sleeps the whole night through and has lost that tired, drowsy feling. She is so much improved that she can now do her housework with perfect ease, and the pains in her back have disap- | peared entirely. I would not go so = FACTS T0 PUBLIC far as to say that she is entirely re- | lieved of the dropsy, but it does not | eve: , bother her half as much as it did, | ~ MONDAY, AUGUST ™%. 1930.

The Burmese, despite this precau- tion, and feeling shame at being naked took with him a Piece .of Cloth to wear end Ris waist ati But, in the rats were plenti- ful, s0, to save the cloth, he heeded a cat. The cat could not fatch rats every day, so, to feed it, he needed & cow to give milk for the/ cat. But the cow needed to be looked after, which meant that a hut must be built for the boy and a stable for the cow. To look after the house, a maid was hired. But the maid and the boy had not takem any vows and needed food, so a store was built - But the store-keeper had to live there, and his carriers, and, by and by, the Burmese found himself in a busy little village--all on account of his Piece of Cloth.

He started at right angles, pushed into the maze of white-robed spruce and balsam, and turned back in the direction of the cabin over a aew trail. He was not in a good hu- mor. growing and acute feeling of animeos- ity toward himself, Since the day--- or night--fate had drawn that great, black pA over his lide, shuttting out his sun, he had been drifting; he had been floating along on currents of the least resistance, making no fight, and, in the Sompleteness of his rief and despatr, allowing hims#if to isintegrate physically as well as mentally. He had sorrowed with him- self; he had told himself that every- {thing worth 'having 'was gone; but now, for the first time, he cursed himself. To-day--these few hundred yards out in the snow--had come as a test. They had proved his weak- ness. He had degenerated into less than a man! He was . . ." He clenched his hands inside his thick mittens, and a rage burned within him like a fire. Go with Father Roland? Go up into that world where he knew that the eae great law of life was the survival of the (fittest? Yes, he would go! This body and brain of his needed their punishment--and they should have it! He would go. And his body would fight for it, or die. The thought gave him an atrocious satis- faction. He was filled with a sud- den contempt for himself. If Father Roland had known he would have uttered a paean of joy. Out of the darkness of the humor into which he had fallen David was suddenly flung by a low and ferocious growl. Hé had stepped around a young balsam that stood Hke a seven- foot ghost in his path, and found him- self face to face with a beast that was crouching at the butt of a thick spruce. It was a dog. The animal was not more than four or five short paces from him and was chained to the tree. David surveyed him with dd interest, wondering first of I- i ul 1 i i i { i i | i i I IL i Be fi 4] ly bly i Ii : ky 3 iH | £ : ; i ¢ { t all why he was larger than the other dogs. As he lay crouched. there against his tree, his ivory fangs gleaming between half-uplifted tips, he looked like a great wolf. In the other dogs David had witnessed an avaricious excitement at the approach of men, a hungry demand for food, a straining at leash ends, a whining and snarling comradeship. Here he saw none of those things. The big, wolf-like beast made no sound after the first growl, and made no move ment. And yet every muscle in his body seemed gathered in a readiness to spring, and his gleaming fangs threatened. He was ferocious and yet shrinking; ready to leap, and yet afraid. He was like a thing at bay--a hunted creature that had ticed that he had but one good eve It was bloodshot, balefully alert, and fixed on him like a round ball of fire. The lids had closed over his other eye; they were swollen; there was a big lump just over where the eye should have been. Then he saw that the beast's lips were 'cut and bleeding. There was blood on the There possessed him an in- |b been prisoned. And them David no- | snow; and suddenly the big brute covered his fangs to give a racking cough as though he had swallowed a sharp fish-bone, and fresh blood dripped out of his mouth on the snow between his forepaws. One of these forepaws was twisted; it had een broken. "You poor devil!" aloud. : : He sat down on a birch log within six feet of the end of the chain, and looked steadily into the big husky's one bloodshot eye as he said again: "You poor dewil!* Baree, the dog, did not understand. It puzzled him that this man did not carry a club. He was used to clubs. So far back as he could remember the club had been the one dominant thing in his life. It was a club that had closed his eye. It was a club that had broken one of his teeth and cut his lips, and it was a club that had beat against his ribs until ~--now---the blood came up into his throat and choked him, and dripped out of his mouth. But this man had no club, and he looked friendly. "You poor devil!" said David for the third time. Then he added, dark indignation in his voice: "What in God's name has Thoreau Been doing to you?" There was something sickening in the spectacle--that battered, bleed- ing, broken creature huddling there against the tree, coughing up thered stuff that discolored the snow. Lov- ing dogs, te was not afraid of them; and forgetting Father Roland's warn- Ing he rose from the log and went nearer. From where he stood, look- ing down, Baree could have reached his throat. But he made no move- ment, -unless it was that his thickly haired body was trembling a little. His one red eye looked steadily up at David. ; For the fourth time David spoke: * "You poor, God-forsaken brute!" There was friendliness, compas- sion, wonderment in his voice, and he held down a hand that he had drawn from one of the thick mittens. Another moment and he would have bent over, but a ery stopped him so sharply and suddenly that he said David '|his terrible teeth snarling, Hi-am afraid of him. Tin Can sk Tricks Water-Wheel Motor EDWARD THATCHER The thundering waters of Niagara are forced to drive dynames that shoot electric thrills all through New York state. and eastern Ontario. It took many brainy engineers to figure out how it could be done. By following the same principle, and using a little solder and some tin can * lids, you can make your kitchen fau- cet run a motor like the Niagara dy- namos, only quite a bit smaller. Solder together two push-on can lids to form a flanged wheel. To the rim of this solder six or eight bottle caps, equal distances apart. These form the buckets and must be firmly fixed for they will have to stand the strain of the falling or running water. Uprights to hold the axle are made by soldering two flat pieces of tin on- to a salmon or other flat can. Use a nail for the axle. Be sure that it is through the exact center of the wheel, soldering firmly to prevent wobbling. The mill will run now, but to. turn it into a regular water-motor solder two more bottle caps together .and to the end of the nail. These will make a flanged pulley wheel. In order to get an even pull on the belt, the nail . must be fastened to the exact center f the i ? Ul i BE pulley. Why se a string Set the mill under a faucet or in 3 stream of water and watch it spin (Tomorrow: An Indian Storys "Biting a Grizzly Bear's Nose") Daily Twelve-Syllable Rhyme Every great Senius ha 0 begin As a lad, jumped back. Thoreau stood within ten feet of 'him, horritied. He clutched a rifle in one hand. "Back--back, m'sieu!" he cried, sharply. "For the love of God, jump back. He swung his rifle into the crook of his arm. David did not move, and from Thoreau he looked down coolly at the dog. Baree was a changed beast. His one eye was fas- tened upon the fox breeder. His bared, bleeding lips revealed inch- 1 long fangs between which there came now a low and menacing snarl. The tawny crest along his spine was like a brush; from a puzzled toleration of David-iris posture and look had changed Into deadly hatred for Thor- eau, and fear of him, For a moment after his first warning the French- man's voice seemed to stick in his throat as he saw what he believed to be David's fatal disregard ol his peril. He did not speak to him again. | His eyes weré on the deg. Slowly he raised his rifle; David heard the click. of the hammer--and Baree! heard it. There was something in the sharp, metallic thrill of it that stirred his brute instinct. His lips fell over his fangs, he whined, and th on his belly, he dragged him- slowly toward David! It was a miracle that Thoreau the Frenchman looked upon then. He would have staked his very soul-- wagered his hopes of paradise against a babiche thread--that what he saw could never have happened between Baree and man. In utter amagement he lowered his gun. David looking down, was smiling into that one, wide-open, bloodshot eye of Baree's his hand reached out. Foot by foot Baree slunk to him on his belly, and when at last he was at David's feet he faced Thoreau again, a low, rumbling growl in his throat. David reached down and touched him, even as he heard the fox breeder make an incoherent sound in his beard. At the caress of his hand a great shud- der passed through Baree's body, as it he had been stung. That touch was the connecting link through which passed the electrifying thrill of a man's soul aching out to a brute instinct. : Baree had found a man friend! When David stepped away from him. to Thoreau's side as much of the Frenchman's face ag was not hid- den under his heard was of a curious ashen pull He seemed to make a struggle ° e he could get his voice. And then: 'sieu, I tell you it is incredible! I cannot believe what I have seen. It was a miracle!" He shuddered. David vas looking at him, a bit puzzled. He could not quite comprehend the fear that had possessed him. Thoreau saw this, and pointing to Baree--a gesture that brought a snarl from the beast --he said: . ~ "He is bad, m'sieu, bad! He is the worst dog in all this country. He was born an out: ~--among the wolves --and his heart is filled with murder. He is a quarter wolf, and you can't club-it out of him.

What a defermined, enthusiastic and adaptable man can -do on the land-is told by the New Westminster British Columbian, B. Bruckshaw on his return after four years in the army decided to settle on the land and chose forty acres near Meridian, getting posses sion last September. The place was breast high with undergrowth, and, generally s , Was a pretty tough proposition. However, he took his wife and five children (the young- est two moaths old) to his loeation and pitehed a bell tent. He was told by neighbors that he was making a mistake as the land needed draining and would take too much eapital to clear ft. He built a barn and moved the family in. At that time his two cows were left in the open. He started to clear his land with a mower, after turning down the lowest tender of $18 per acre for the job. With hard work he succeeded last fall .in clear- ing fifteen acres and his stand of oats compares favorably with any. | thing in the valley. f Next he built a five-roomed house, 28 x42, and this spring he continued to clear land and to put in crops of oats, peas and vetches. Mr. Bruck- shaw alsp has several acres in pota- toes, turnips, mangels and carrots, a good garden, a chicken house with nearly 400 chickens and will have five acres seeded to barley. Neigh- bors turned to and helped him ereef a home, so that the labor did not cost him a cent. The barn has accommodation for twelve cows and at present houses six grade Jerseys and three heifer calves of his own raising. He and a neighbor, also & returned soldier, piped water 1,700 feet te their houses, He has more land under cultiva tion now than some of his neighbors who have held land for more than twenty years and who did not spend four years fighting the foe.

Aeroplane excursions are said to strengthen tubercular lungs. Be quick to commend--slow to condemn. Before the other could speak, he Lad walked boldly to the tree. Baree did not turn his head--did not for an instant take his eye from Thoreau. There came the click of the snap that fastened the chain around the body of the spruce, and David stood with the loose end of the chain in his hand. "There!" He laughed a little proudly. "And I didn't use a club," he add-, ed. Thoreau gasped "Mon Dieu!" and sat down on the birch as though the strength had gone from his legs, David rattled the chain and then re-fastened it about the spruce. Baree was still watching Thoreau, who sat staring at him as if the beast had suddenly changed his shape and species, - (To Be Continued.)
