That was what ale kind tin peddler mail gave Milly for bringing ,a drink of cold :�water' cut to his wagon as he drove by the farmhouse' one warm . summer morn- ing, and Milly, tucicixg the striped. eweettness . into her pocket,hung the dipper again on its nail by the well and then ran out toward the :barn to find a' place where she could enjoy the treat' all • by herself. Up by the house brother Edgar, might see her and watch her enjoy- ment with longing eyes which would spoil the pleasure, and Baby Willy might coax or perhaps cry for a piece. •It was not often .such a treat came to Milly and she meant to en- joy it all down to the last sugary crumb. As she opened the barnyard gate the hens came running toward her. Greedy things! they were always wanting everything! But just then the big rooster caught sight of some corn. r'Toohk! toohk! toohk!" he called excitedly and when the hens ran to see what he had found he stepped aside and did not eat until each one had taken a share. "Perhaps they, are not always greedy," thought Milly, walking a little more slowly, Old Biddy was scratching in the leaves near by and just then she found a worm.. "Cluck! Cluck!. Cluck!" she called loudly and gener- ously divided it among her brood of eager chicks. "They can get such things every day," said Milly, her cheeks growing rather red, and then she went up the driveway which led into the great hay barn. As she did so Maria came up beside her carrying a fat field mouse. "Pur -r -r! pur-r-r!" she called and when her kitten came running she generously gave the whole titbit to her little one and sat by to watch its enjoyment. Even the horses were sharing their hay at the manger and the colts. nib- bled their oats together from the same box. Milly turned and hurried back toward the house. At the gate she met Edgar. "I was just looking for you," he said. "Mother has given us some cookies and we are going to share them; you and I and Baby 'Willie, out. under the mulberry tree." "I have something to share, too," said. Milly happily, so glad that the red and white stick was unbitten and unbroken. Will Quickly Cure any Sour Stomach Relieves Fulness After Meals. "When I was working around the. farm last winter, I had an attack of in- flammation," writes Mr, E, P. Daw- kins, of Port Richmond, I :Was weak for a long time, but, well enough •to wort until spring. l3iit , something went wrong with my bowels for lead to`use•salts or physic all the time.** My stomach• kept sour, and always after eating there was a' pain and fulness, and all , symptons of intestinal indi- gestion, Nothing helped me until I used 1»' Hamilton's Pills: Instead of 'hurting, like. other pills, they acted very mildly, and:seemed to heal the bowels. I did not reeuire large doses to get results with kir. Hamilton's Pills, and 'feel so glad that 1 have found a mild yet certain remedy. To -day 1'am well --no. pain, no sour stomach, a good appetite, able to' di- gest anything. This is a whole lot of good for one medicine to do, and I can say Dr. Hamilton's Pills are the best pills, and my letter, I am sure, proves it.

A French writer has been enthus- ing about the manly beauty of General Sir Arthur Paget, just back from the Balkan States. When he was commandant of the 1st Scabs Guards all the officer's could claim to be the most striking -look- ing representatives of British manhood, If this . French writer had seen Sir Arthur Paget with the personnel of his staff then, he would have had good reason for ot,ying that the British -officer type cannot be excelled in point oflooks; and physique by any army in the world. But, after a11, what are looks compared with mahtary quali- ties in an officer? And Sir Arthur Paget has both. SOME NEW FACTS.

BLACK DYE FROM TANBARK. Wra Shortage Results is Discovery of Cheep Substitute. r One of 'Clic first results of the que,st'of ohemisEs fee enbstitutes for dyes made ti Germany is sul- phur black derived firom iso -called exhauseed,tan balk, .One of the best known research men has ;de- rived some very. lsatisfactory black dye from.: the inexpensive sKiuree mentioned, the basis of which is connected with tannic acid. At a laboratory it was eaid that the inventor for whom there searches have been conducted by the chemist foe the east few months does not Sarre .at this time to Make the formal announcement over his. name pending : certain trade ar- rangements and further experi- ments.

The sulphur black substitute is especially adapt- ed for cotton. Archil, a vegetable dye ' which gives to wools varying shades of red and brown, according to the strength of the decoction made from it, has been found in large q antitie,s in Lower ' California. The plant from which the dye is ob- tained is worth about $25 a ton. The supply ie said to be enormous Several corporations have re- tained Chemists to work out dye- stuff problems. Many branches of the dye industry in this: country have been in a estate . of suspended animation owing to the ability of the Germans with low priced yet efficient technical help and cheap labor to produce products at prices with which no other people could compete, THE ONLY MEDICINE FOR LITTLE ONES It is hard to believe that tea or cof- fee will puta person in such a condi- tion as it did this woman. She tells her own story: "I did not believe coffee caused my trouble, and frequently said I liked it so well I would not, and could not, quit drinking it, but I was a miserable sufferer from heart trouble and ner- vous prostration for four years." (Tea is just as injurious as coffee, because it, too, contains the health -destroying drug, caffeine.) "I was scarcely able to be around, had no energy, and did not care for anything. Was emaciated and had a constant pain around my heart until I thought I could not endure it. "Frequently I had nervous chills and the least excitement would drive sleep away, any any little noise would upset me terribly. I was . gradually getting worse until finally I asked myself what's the use of being sick all the time and buying medicine so that I could indulge myself in coffee? "So I got some Postum to help me quit. I made it strictly according to. directions, and I want to tell you that change was the greatest step in my. life. It was easy to quit coffee be- cause I now like Postum" better than coffee. "One by one of the old troubles left until now I am in splendid health, nerves steady, heart all right, and the pain all gone. Never have any more nervous chills, don't take any medi- cine, can do all my house work, and have clone a great deal beside.". Name given by Canadian Postum Co., Windsor, Ont.

He was ;standing on the quay one forenoon when a stranger came up and .asked if the water belonged to my friend. He looked at the man and jokingly replied that it •did. The tide was full at the time, just wanting two feet from the top. of the quay, and the newcomer's next query was a startler. "Can I get some to buy?" he asked. He was informed he could have the lot if he liked and prompt- ly requested five gallons. "I have nothing to take it away in," he continued, "but I will go up to the town and get a jar to hold it." Imagine my friend's surprise, when standing by the side of the vessel after the tide had gone out, he saw the man coming along the quay w'itha pitcher in eaoh hand, Me water -buyer was staggered with aanazement.
