A UTOPIAN RHAPSODY
“ Will you be so good as to drive off
the track?” asked tl\e motorman, and
the truck driver promptly pulled to
one side.
“ Thank you, ever and ever so
much,” added the motorman with a
smile. “ You’re a perfect dear!”
“You’re very welcome,” said the
truck driver, “but you must pardon
my seeming carelessness: I really had
no idea your car was so near.”

Water was very scarce there, and
at each end of the barracks assigned
to us was a barrel of water for
drinking purposes.
I happened to get np about two
o’clock in the morning and leave the
barracks. On my return I saw Mike
Connors in the barrel taking a bath.
I told him that he should have known
better, as the water was very scarce
there. He said he knew that, but he
really did need the bath and couldn’t
wait any longer.
“ We’ll drink out of the other barrel

Belligerent Owl
A struggle between an owl and the
engineer of an electric express train
has been reported at Linkoeping, in
southern Sweden. The bird, probably
attracted by the headlights of the lo­
comotive, burst against one cab win­
dow and broke the glass. Well in­
side, it sank its claws into the shoul­
ders of the motorman and attacked
him with its bill. The engineer could
not leave his grip on the switch, and
a fierce battle ensued while the train
raced on its way. At last the mbtor-
man succeeded in strangling the bird,
which was an unusually large speci­

Pianos to Fit Horses
In order to transport pianos over
mountain trails or difficult roads, an
enterprising German manufacturer
has constructed a special type of the
instrument, which permits it to be
carried on horseback. The piano has
a U-shaped lower section which fits
the animal. Other pianos are made
dismountable so that .they can be
transported in several packing cases
on the backs of mules, and assembled
on delivery, because the instrument
would be ruined were it to be hauled
over many of the trails for hours,
and often days, in a cart drawn by
oxen.
Biblical Pictures His Forte
Hofmann, who painted the famous
••Christ in the Temple,” was a Ger­
man, born at Darmstadt in 1824. He
died in 1902. His pictures owe their
popularity to his illustrative talent
and ideal conceptions of Biblical
events.

Remarkable Memory
A caller on Elijah Harriman,
South Warren, Maine, ninety-eight
years old, found him doing his share

to the visitor: “I remember the first

Not Homesick
Ann’s parents left her at her
grandmother’s when they went East
last summer. The little girl seemed
quite contented for several days;
then one evening she wouldn’t eat.
Her grandmother asked whether she
was homesick. “ No,” she answered,
“I’m not, but my stomach wants to
go home.”
Would you like to try
this doctor’ s laxative
free of charge?
Every family has occasional need o f a laxative,
but it should be a family laxative. One that can’t
form a habit, but can be taken as often as needed.
When breath is bad or tongue coated. Or appetite
fails. Only a doctor knows the right ingredients.
Dr. Caldwell discovered the correct combination
years ago. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin combines
harmless herbs and pure senna. It starts muscular
action and soon corrects constipation. Gently, but
surely, it relieves a bilious or sluggish condition. It
is mild* Delicious. Effective. A ll druggists keep
