Children love Its rich, fruity taste and It quickly drives awny those distressing di luents, such as headaches, bad brenth, coated tongue, biliousness, feverish ness, fretfulncss, etc. It gives them a hearty appetite, regulates their stom ach and bowels and gives tone and strength to these organs so they con tinue to act normally, of their own accord.

CHAPTER VI 13 Life Is no bower of rosea tor the acheiuer ot scheme. Ellen Tolllver waa not the first to make that discov ery In actual experience. There could be no possible question but that she had Ognred the family future along the nioet pleasant aa well at profit able lines, and yet It grew Increasing ly difficult to hold ber recalcitrant subjects to the designated stars. Take Miriam, the sensible twin, (or In stance, frlvollng away the precious hours of her life ent at Pay Dirt In the company of were can grocer. And It was not merely that she did those things, ahe enjoyed the doing. That waa the painful aide ot the alto atlon. And there waa Marjory. Hiram Buckwortb remulned pleasant and comradely member of the household. cheerfully paying ten of his fifteen dollars Into the general coffer every week, and obviously counting this not to much a hardship aa privilege. Ulna Jenkins llk-d blm, Mr. Tolllver liked him, the members of the church liked blm. All the young daughter of all the Influential member developed strange assiduity along tinea of re- llgloot activity. On the surface, tblnga aeemed to progress) wttb a tweet serenity wblcb should bsv been highly satisfactory to everybody con cerned. But Ginger Ella, casting about her witb keen eye that saw everything, and a keen mind that suspected even more, knew Intuitively that all waa not well, not In the church, where were beard vague murmuring. In definite suggestions, and were teen strange and significant look, nor In the parsonage Itself, where Hiram Buckwortb looked too often, and too long, upon the slender whit bands of Marjory Tolllver. This was bad sign, one of th very worst Utram Buckwortb was good looking. Marjory bad always been man-mad. Th situ atlon held al! sorts of horrible possl- bUIUee. Ginger renewed ber vigilance. Hiram Buckwortb. good looking, brilliant young student bad deliber ately chosen the ministry a bit Ufa work. She tossed blm a scant re spect for that choice, which, although It accorded him a blgb mark for character, It no way entitled blm to a permanent place In ber plana for th family' future. Being seminary nan, wttb special study at Oxford, be would begin perhaps at thousand dollars, or twelve nnndred If he was Incky, and would progress upward. lowly, perhaps a far a two thou- sand, twenty five hundred, possibly be was ao very good looking. If be married, be would Instsntly, according to fjine-honored Methodist parsonage statistics aa figured fiy Ginger, become possessed of a minimum of three chll dren. Small good would be one of hi es tate to the Impoverished . and oeeily Tolllver. Encouraging blm was a deliberate throwing away of their one resource. It was the willful choking ot their oil well It was the burning of their liberty bonds, (linger reconnol tered carefully. She did more than rec onnolter. She hounded. Klie wi all present all-pervasive, all-observing If Marjory and the young minister Inclined for a stroll In the moonlight. Ginger Inclined also. If they sat Id the shade 01 the rambler on the veranda. Ginger aat wltb them, bored, but unyielding. Had sh washed dlshe all thi-so year merely to save the fair hum's of Marjory for the fllshe of Hiram Buckwortb and a minimum of threat The attic aaw little of Ellen Tolllver during these day. She met the post- man, thanked blm warmly for the letter he gave her, and flew to the attic. The dime crtu-hed Into th dolls' trunk, snd Ginger returned to ber veranda vlglL Id a way considerable disappoint ment attended the Hcrumulutloo ot funds for the blind. It n rely did she receive more than five contributions In a day, a stingy fifty cents. Lovely daughter cannot be sent to finishing schools, shabby parsonagi cannot be done over, suffering eye cannot be operated on by expensive surgeon, npon a paltry five dime a day. Not that Ginger frowned npon her re ceipts, far from It It wn only that the had hoped ao greatly. Id the three week of Mr. Tolllver' Idleness In the country, he hud ac quired a thick coat of unaccustomed tan, and five full pounds Id weight, wlib such an Increase of strength, en thuslawn, and smhltlon, that he waa Inclined to feel ashamed of hi con tinned Idleness. Word from town that a ipectnl committee from th official board wlsheC to meet him at th par- aonage ou Thursday evening for dis cussion of Important church matters. gave blm real pleasure. Eddy Jackson drove blm In, with Miriam, and feeling, wltb his usual tuit that the family would like to be alone for a few hour of Iniltnut re union, he pleaded Important business, and left them, promising to return for them at eleven o'clock. Ant after their modest supper, they sat, th three girls and tbelf futliei, In th pleasant old living room and waited tor the coming of the committee. "They wunt that lust two thousand raised," auld their father, smiling, "aud ao do L Hut I am sure the peo ple will contribute It ot the own free wilt.

What hour was ap pointed for the meeting? taut th rest of th committee Inter "Well, at matter of fact the reat ot the committee I oot coming, lirotb er !nwe wa called out of town on business late this afternoon, and Brother Markleo la In bed with an attack of acute Indigestion. Not that I believe a word of It myself. They Just backed out that't all." "It the meeting postponed, thenr Well, no. Too see, I wss th chair man anyhow, and I can do aa well without the committee. We'll Just have tt out by ourselves. Th girls rs quickly. "Well run opatalr If yon will excuse us." said Miriam.
