Despondency Due to Indigestion.

sons who have indigestion become dis
. couraged and despindent, Here are a
few words of hope and cheer for them
by Mrs. Blanche Borers, Indiana, Pa.:
"For years my diKei.tion was so poor
that I could only eat the lighest foods.
I tred every thing'that I heard of to
get relief, but not until about a year
ago when I saw Chamberlains Tablets
advertised and got a bottle of them,
did I find the right treatment. I soon
began to improve, and since taking a
few bottles of them my digestion is
fine." For sale by all dealers.

AN OLD MAID'S
ADVICE
Br M QUAD
Copyright. INS, by Associated Lit
erary Press.
Her mother named ber Cynthia wbep
i she was three day old and said sbe
hoped tbe little darling wouldn't grow
up to fall In love and become a wife
and mother. :
The little darling didn't
Wben She was a year old she hadn't
rolled yet ' When tbe doctor was ap
pealed to as to what ailed ber be re
plied: - "Her name gave ber shock and
aoured ber disposition."
, "Hut will sbe die young?" was asked.
"Not by a jugful! Sbe Is cut out for
an old maid, and sbe will live as long
as tbere is anything that she can med
dle with and stir up trouble."
Sbe bad got to be tbtrty-flve years
old wben an event happened. Dp to
till time tbey bad been incidents and
occiirreures. This wus un event to be
spelled with a big "E."
Little Mrs. Larkins was tbe bride of
a year. Sbe bad married a nice young
oi:in. and tbe borne was a bappy one.
One day tbe husband answered ber in
an impatient way. and soon after be
bud gone to business Cyutbla dropped
In to Hud tbe wife In tears. Tbe old
maid licked ber chops. Here a
bouquet of gossip for ber. What was
tbe matter?
"It's its Henry!"
"Ab ba! ! said so wben yon were
married. What's be done?"
"I wanted just a card of books and
eyes, and be said be couldn't be both
ered with such trifles."
"Well, that's tbe beginning of tbe
end. In six months there will be a
separation."
"Oh. don't say that Henry was
bothered about something and gave
me an impatient answer. Maybe be
will even bring tbe books and eyes
when be comes."
"Lucy Larkins, prepare yourself and
don't be deceived! 1 can't stop' longer
today, but I will come In tomorrow
and tell you what yon must do. Unless
you want to lose your husband, tbls
thing must be nipped in tbe bud."
"Why, Cynthia, bow you frighten
mo!" exclaimed tbe wife.
Mr. Larkins bad loaned a sum ot
money to be repaid n't a certain date.
When the date arrived tbe money was
not forthcoming. Therefore be was
:ipset
If Mr. Larkins bad owned up about
the money tbe skies would have clear
ed In five minutes. ; If Mrs. Larkins
had mentioned that tbe old maid wo
seeking to make trouble there would
have been an explanation. As It wos,
when Cynthia culled next day she
hound n victim ready for her.
-."rid he bring the books and eyes?"
she asked.
"N-uo." ' , : -
"Good! We will now proceed to
show that young man u few things to
opeu his eyes. We will let him under
stand that If be is tired of you you
are ditto."
"But I can't believe he is tired of
me," was protested, .
There was plain talk on tbe one side
and tears and sobs on tbe other, and
at length the wife was won over, and
tbe old muld left tbe bouse saying:
"Remember that 1 you flunk out you
will lose Henry. All you have' to do is
to keep quiet till 1 give tbe word."
Just about that bour the money that
Mr. . Latins was anxious, about whs
pnia over, and be came dome an hour
ahead of time to tell tbe good news
and make bis apologies.
"Oh, Lucy, dear!" he called as be
entered the !s;uc8.
No Lucy dear. ,
Then came the note left for him prop
ped up against tbe clock.
"I have discovered that yoi no long
er love me, and you will never see me
again!" It read.
Mr. Larkins jumped two feet high,
ills heart choked blm. His knees wnb
bled. Tbe room whirled round and
round with blm. in a minute more
be was out of tbe bouse calling an
alarm:
"Lucy has committed suicide! Come
on to the river!"
The river was at Its lowest stage,
and a child could have crossed It
Lucy's bedraggled body was not to be
ieeu. There wus n mud turtle or two
Hailing hp or down, but no Lucy.
There were orchards and groves,
Mid nil night long men were searching
They found .no trace of the missins
n-ife. and the next day the ground was
overed again with even more care.
The result was the same.
. As night rump down for the second
dme u score of men 4rftber at t
Larkins homo to sympathize, condole
mid plan anew, llenry . Larkins was
In tears and the others on the verge
when In walked Lucy. She had come
downstairs from the garret, where she
hud been In biding lu compliance with
Miss Cyutbla 's orders She bud agreeo
to stay up there at least three days,
but couldn't stand the strain. .
Her story was told, explanation
made, and after a time of rejui-lni!
Sipilre Miller rapped for ordev w.-.i
said: j
"Gentlemen, this meeting has a pit-as
ant duty to perform.' let os perfo-m
It"
Twenty men filed out and down the
street and stopped at tbe bouse where
the old maid made her borne. She
squealed and kicked and scratched, but
she was borne to the river and durked
till she did not get her breath before
high noon next day. No arrests: no
suits for damages. She felt that she
deserved the dose. i
