THESECRETOFSUCCESS Genuine Merit Required to Win the s Confidence. Have you ever stopped to reason why It la that so many products that are extensively advertised, all at once drop out of eight and are aoon forgot ten? The reason Is plain the article did not fulfil the promises of the man ufacturer. This applies more particu larly to a medicine. A medicinal pre paration that has real curative value almost sells Itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy Is recom mended by those who have been bene fited, to those who are In need of it A prominent druggist says "Take for example Iir. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recom mend, for In almost every case It shows excellent results, aa many of my customers testify. No other kid ney remedy that I know baa ao large a sale " According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root Is due to the tact that It fulfils almost every wish In overcoming kidney, liver and Madder diseases, corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.

Helen Ulnk. aaka apaad, who haa poaed to her aa an ath lete, to rata acainat the Centipede man. CHAPTER IVContlnued. Bpeed beheld an undersized man of Indeterminate age, hollow-chested, thin-faced, gravely benignant. It was not alone his glasses that lent him a scholarly appearance; he had the stooped shoulders, the thoughtful In tensity of gaze, tho gentle, hesitating backwardness of a book-raised man. Speed acknowledged the introduction pleasantly, while tha benevolent little man blinked back of his lenses. Stover addressed himself to Miss Dlake. "I told the boya what you said, miss, and we four has come as a dele gation to find out ir it goes." "Mr. Speed and I were Juat talking about It when you came," said Helen. "I'm aure ho will consent If you add your entreaties to mine." "It would sO re be a favor," said the cowman, at which the others drew nearer, aa If hanging on Speed'a an swer. Even Cloudy turned his black eyes upon the young nu n. The object of their co-operate gaze shifted his feet uncomfortably and felt minded to flee, but the situation would not permit of It. ' Besides, the affair Interested him. His mind was work ing rapidly, albeit his words were hesitating. "But I'm not in condition," objected the youth. "Mr. Glass said you was never bet ter than you are right now. Anyhow, you don't have to bust no records to beat this cook. He ain't so fast" "It would sure be a kind hearted act If you'd do It for us." said the little man In his high, boyish voice. It was a shock to discover that he spoke In a dialect. "There's a heap of sentiment connected with this affair. Tou aee, outside of being a prize that we won at considerable risk, there goes with this phonograph a set of reecords, among which we all have our special favorites. Have you ever heard Madam-o-tella Melby sing The Holy City?" "I didn't know she sang It," said Speed. "Take It from me, ah did. and you've missed a heap." "Tou bet." Btover agreed. In a hushed, awed tone. "Well, you must have heard Missus Ileleney Moray In The Baggage Coach JaSe5? "You're a True Sport" Ahead?" queried tha scholarly little man. At mention of his beloved clas sic, Carara. the Mexican, murmured, softly: "Ah I The Baggage Car Te'adora Mora! God blesa r!" "I must confess I've never had the pleasure," said Speed, whereupon the speaker regarded him pityingly, and Stover, Jealoua that so much of the conversation had eacaped him. In quired: "Can It be that you never heard that monologue, Silas on Fifth Avenoo?" Again Speed shook his head. As If the very memory were hilari ously funny. Still Bill's shoulders heaved, and stifled laughter cauaed bis Adam's apple to race up and down his leathern throat. Swallowing his merriment at length, he recited. In a choking voice, as follows: "Silas goes op Fifth 'Avenoo and climbs Into a bus. There Is a girl tettln' opposite. He aays. The girl opened her valise, took out her purse, closed her valise, opened her purse, took out a dime, closed her purse, opened her valise, put hi her purse, closed her valise, handed the dime to the conductor, got a nlckle In change, opened her valise, took out her purse, closed her valise, eaened her purse' " At this point the speaker fell Into ungovernable hysteria and exploded, rocking back and forth, slapping his thighs and hiccoughing with enjoy ment. Willi followed him, as did Carara. Even Cloudy showed his teeth and the two young people on the porch found themselves joining in from In fection. It was patent that here lay some subtle humor sufficient to con vulse the Far Western nature beyond all reason; for Stover essayed repeat edly to check his laughter before) gasp ing, finally: "Gosh Imlghty! I never can get past that place. He! He! He! Whoo hoo! That's sure ridlclous, for fair." He wiped his eyes with the back of a sun-browned band, and his frame was racked with barking coughs. "I know the whole blame thing by heart, but I can't leclte It to you. I bog down right there. Seems like some folks is the darndest fools!" "Tou see what the phonograph means to these gentlemen," said Miss Blake. "I think It's a crying shame that they wera cheated out of It, don't you ? Speed began to outline) a plan hast ily in his mind. "I assured them that you would win It back for them, and " "We sure hope you will," said Wil lie, earnestly. "Amen!" breathed the lanky fore man, bis cheeks still wet from his tears of laughter, but his face drawn Into lines of eagerneas. "Please! For my sake!" urged Helen, placing a gentle little hand up on her companion's arm. Speed closed his eyes, so to speak, and leaped In the dark. "All right. 111 do It!" "Yow-ee!" yelled Stover. "We knew you would!" Willie was beaming be- nlgnantly through his glasses, while both Carara and Cloudy showed their heart felt gratitude. "Thank you. Miss Blake. Now we'll show up that shave tail Centipede crowd for what It la." "Walt!" Speed checked the out burst "111 consent upon conditions I'll run, provided you can arrange the race for an 'unknown.' " "What does that mean?". Helen asked. "It means that I dont want my name known In the matter. Instead of arranging for Mr. Whatever-the- Cook's Name-Is to run a race with J. W. Speed, he must agree to compete against a representative of the Flying Heart ranch, name unknown." "I don't think that Is fair!" Cried the girl. "Think of the honor." "Yes, but I'm an amateur. I'd lose my standing." "That goes for ns," said Stover. "We don't care what name you run under. We'll frame the race. Lordyt hut this Is a glorious event" "We can't thank you enough," Wil lie piped. "You're a true sport, Mr. Speed, and we aim to see that you don't get the worst of It In no way. This here race is go In' to be on the square you hear me talkln'. No double-cross this time." Unconsciously the speaker's hand strayed to the gun at hla belt while his smile was grim. Speed started. "What day shall we set?" Inquired Stover. Wally rapidly calculated the date of Culver's arrival, and said: "A week from Saturday." Coving ton would aoon be en route, and was due to arrive a few days thereafter. "One week from Saturday goes," an nounced Stover, "and we thank you again." Turning to Carara, he direct ed: "Rope your buckskin, and hike for the Centipede. Tell 'em to un llmber their coin. Ill draw a month's wages In advance for every son-of-a-gun on the Flying Heart, and we'll ar range details tonight." "SI." agreed Carara. "I go." "And don't waste no time neither," directed Willie, "You tear like a Jackrabblt ahead of a hot wind." Carara tossed his cigarette aside, and the sound of his epurs was lost around the corner of the house. "This makes a boy of me," the last speaker continued. "I can hear the plaintiff notes of Madam c-sella Melby once again." CHAPTER V. ARRT GLASS discovered his protege on the rear porch engrossed with Miss Blake, and signaled him from afar; but the young man Ig nored the signal, and the trainer strolled up to the steps. "Hello. Larry! What's on your mind?" Inquired Speed. "I'd like to. see you." Glass, clad In his sportiest garments, seemed utter ly lacking In the proper appreciation of a valet's position. Ho treated his employer with a tolerant good nature. Mlsa Blake excused herself and went Into the house, whereupon her companion showed his Irritation. "Sea bore, Larry, don't you know better than to Interrupt ma In tha teldst ef hammock talk?" "Oh, that's all light," wheezed the trainer. "As long as you didn't aplll ber out she'll bo back." "Well, what Is It?" "I had a stomach-laugh slipped to me Just now." He began to shake. "So you broke up my tete-a-tete to tell me a funny story?" "Listen here. These cowboys have got you touted for a foot-ruoner." This time Glass lsughed aloud, hoarsely. "They have framed a race with a glnny down tho block." "All right I'll run." Mr. Glaas's face abruptly fell Into solemn lines. "Quit your klddln. Wally; you couldn't run a hundred yards In twenty minutes. These guys are on the level. They've sent Gen eral Garcia over to cook it" "Yes. The race comes off In ten daye." Glass allowed his mouth to drop open and his little eyes to peer forth In startled amazement "Then it's true? I guess this climate Is too much for you," he said. "When did you feel this com In" on?" Speed laughed. "I know what I'm doing." With an effort at restraint, the trainer Inquired: "What's the Idea?" "I'll tell you how It came up, Larry. I I'm very fond of Miss Blake. That's why I broke the record getting out here as soon as I was Invited. Well, she believes, from something I said one of those odd moments, you know that I'm a great athlete, and she told those cowboys that I'd gladly put on my spiked shoes and carry their colors to victory. You've beard about the phonograph?" Glass smiled wearily. "I can't hear nothing else. The gang Is daffy on 'grand opera." "When I was accused of being an athlete I couldn't deny It could I?" "I see. You was stringln' the gal, and she called you, eh?" "I wouldn't express It In quite those terms. I may have exaggerated my abilities slightly." Glass laughed. "She is such a great admirer of athletics, it was quite natural. Any man would have done the same. She got me com mitted in front of the cowboys, and I had to accept or be a quitter." Glass nodded appreciatively. "All the same," said he, "you've got more nerve than a burglar. How you goln' to side-step?" "I made the match for an "un known.'" Speed winked. "Covington "Nix, Now! Dont Kid Yourself Too Far. will he here In a day or two. Ill wire him to hurry up. Fortunately I brought a lot of athletic clothes with me, so I'll go Into training under your direction. When Covington gets here I'll let him run." The fat man sighed with relief. "Now I'm hep. I was afraid you'd try to go through with It You had me wtngln' for a while, but I plugged your game with the cowboys. Pawnee Bill and his Congress of Rough Riders think you're a cyclone.' ' "It's the first chance I ever had to wear that silk running-suit Who knows, maybe I can run!" "Nix. now! Don't kid yourself too far. This thing Is funny enough as It stands." "Oh, I dare say It looks like a Joke to you. but It doesn't to me, Larry. If I dont marry that girl. I 111 go off, my balance, that's all, and I'm not go ing to overlook any advantage what ever. Fresno sings love songs, and he's got a mint of money. Well, I'm going to work this athletic pose to death. I'm going Into training, I'm go ing to talk, eat, aleep, live athletics for a week, and when I'm unexpected ly crippled on the eve of the race, it Is going to break my heart Under stand! I am going to be so desperate ly disappointed that I'll have to choose between suicide and marriage. The way I feel now, I think I'll choose mar riage. But you must help." "Leave it to me. Bo!" From Inside the house came the strains of Dearie, sung In a sympa thetic tenor, and upon the conclusion Berkeley Fresno's voice Inquiring: "Miss Blake, did I ever tell yon about the time I sang Dearie to the mayor's daughter In Walla Walla?" Miss Blake appeared on the gallery with her musical admirer at her el bow. "Yes," said she. sweetly. "You told me all about the mayor's daughter a week ago." Then spying Speed and his companion, she exclaimed: "Mr. Fres no has a fine voice, hasn't he? He sings with the Standard Glee Club." "Indeed." "Sure!" The Native Son of the Golden West shook up a hammock, cushion for the girl. "Tenor!" said ha, sen tentlously.
