GIFT OF MARY ALICE
A Story With a Moral Gfet It!

The minister rose from his big give something "to Him", but she
,-halr behind the pulpit, and stepped
toward his audience. He adjusted his
waistcoat, placed two fingers in one
of Its pockets, and "ahemed" several
times. He went through the- usual pre
liminaries that ministers have, and
then got at his business: "I have been
asked," said he, "to announce the
campaign to raise money for a new
General Hospital for the city. The
various other pulpits are endorsing
it, I believe, and I feel that I too, can
sanction It, in all sincerity. Whatever
we do to serve our fellow men, we
are assured that we are doing it unto
'Him.' Many of the parish are In a
position to do more than others, and
I hope that they may feel disposed
to aid to the fullest extent.
"I shall take for my text: 'It is
more blessed to give than to receive.'
He paused to let the words sink in.
"It is deplorable that the feeling
of brotherly kindness is a spasm of
the Christmas tide; that it is link
ed with the calendar; that it finds its
climax In a fixed day. If the vision
of the Babe of Bethlehem would hut
linger, what vast amount of good
might be wrought.
"The Babe Is the focal point of a
new force, which the divine brings
upon the field of human endeavor;
and the personality of Christ, his
tender ministries of helpfulness, his
flipreme sacrifice, becomes a trans
forming power, and the world touch
ed by it becomes tender and unset
fish. "But only once a year do we have
this triumph of the spirit of sympathy
a brief hour when most men sur
render to the holy Impulse of unsel
fishness and listen to the dictates of
nrotherliness My prayer is
that men may more and more yield
tO this holy imnulHB. atA (In) am
fey the Babe may. be born, and thd

the touch of throbbing hearts, warm

had no money, nor anything of value.
She told her work-worn mother all
about the sermon, and of her anxiety
to help, but her weary mother could
see no way.
But Mury Alice was not satisfied.
Words kept running through her
mind:" In His name, because he
gave His life for us!" She thought
them the most beautiful words she
had ever heard. As she sat upon the
rickety steps, Davey, the alert-eyed
Fox Terrior, her most-prized posses
sion, aside from ."Mother", came and
sat beside her. He had been given to
her when he was a tiny, soft, puppy
and the two had been inseperable ever
since. Mary Alice reached out and
drew him close In her arms, and he
knowing no other way to demonstrate
his great love for his little mistress,
reached up and deftly licked her
cheek.
Suddenly a great idea was born In
Mary Alice's brain. She recalled the
day, long ago, when the Drummonds
had driven out ' to see her mother
about some work, and how little Ted
dy Drummond had fallen madly in
love with Davey, and how he had
pleaded with his parents to buy Da
vey for him. They had offered Mary
Alive five dollars, (a marvelous sum
to her) but she wouldn't let him go.
Why, she wouldn't have sold him for
all the gold in the world; but they
had told her that If at any time she
changed her mind, to let them know.
Mary Alice spoke low to Davey,
and he sprang' up, following close at
her heels. She went along hurriedly,
lest any hesitation, weaken her re
solve. She rang the Drummond door
bell, and Mrs. Drummond answered
it herself. "What Is It Mary Alice?"
she asked.
"I want to sell Davey. You 'mem
ber saying to tell you when I chang
ed my mind."
wnat made you change your
mind, Mary Alice?"
"Its for Him," said Mary Alice
simply.
"Him?"
Mary Alice choked back a sob,
"Her died for me, 'n I want to give
Him my dearest thing. I want th
money for the new Hospital, so "
"Well, my dear child," there was:
the hint of tears in the woman's
eyes, "you shall have the five dol
lars, but you shall keep Davey, too.
Teddy has another dog now."
Mrs. Drummond told the story to
Henry when he came home to lunch.
He was silent for a bit, then he said:
"Poor little kid! She sort of puts us
to shame, doesn't she Emily? I think
I'll drop In at the Commercial Club
as .1 drive back and give something
to the Hospital fund myself."
He did.

Marks" according to a statement

A Square Meal
and
A Square Deal
Here's p square deal for the peo
ple who can't eat a square meal with
out after pain and distress.
Go to your druggist today and get
a 60 cents box of Mi-O-Na Taslets,
the great prescription for Indigestion
and stomach troubles.
Take one, or if jour suffering is
intense, two tablets with or after
meals and at the end of ten days if
you can't eat a square meal without
distress go and get your money back.
That's where the square deal comes
in.
But Mi-O-Na is resOJy a. stomach
upbullder of great merit.
The quick and positive action of
Ml-O-Xa on the stomach in case of
gas, waterbrash, sour stomaen ana
heartburn Is' worth a lot of money
to any sufferer.
Why not try Ml-O-Ka at druggists
everywhere or ut Daniel J. Fry's.

The man that has to buy tires for his car was somewhat sur
prised the early part of this week to learn of the big advance in
prices. We knew it was coming and prepared ourselves for the
advance by purchasing a heavy stock of REPUBLIC TIRES
which will be sold at the old price, as long as the stock lasts.
Every day brings us additional orders for REPUBLICS, and
it looks now as though the stock would soon be exhausted.
Thefe is no better tire made than the Republic and no tire man
ufacturer makes more liberal adjustments than we are allowed
to make.
Our reputation is back of REPUBLIC Tires and with the
standing we have in the Salem territory is your guarantee of
right and just treatment. a
REPUBLIC TIRES are adjusted on a six-thousand mile basis,
Fabrics; and ten thousand miles on Cords.
' We carry a full and complete stock of all the popular sizes and
can fill your orders promptly.
Let us fill your Tire needs now and save yourself money.
