One requires more than pepsin to Digest All Food T.Icst digesters, ?put up in dry form, depend almost solely on pep sin. But pepsin digests albumen only. Kot starch, not fats, not phos phates. Nor can pepsin do what the bow els do toward digestion. Yet that is almost half. A perfect digester requires that many ingredients be perfectly bal anced. And they must be in liq uid form.' Kodol is such a digester. Eat what you need of the foods that you want, and Kodol com pletely digests them. It does all that the healthy stom ach does?all that the bowels do. One can see it do this, under proper conditions, by applying a little Kodoi to a mixture of food in a test tube. Or you can prove it after any meal in your own stomach. We have never found another digester which does what Kodol does. When the stomach is weak, a perfect digester is of vital import ance. The stomach, to recover, must have complete rest. There must be no undigested food to irritate the inflamed lining. Complete rest never comes through dieting. There is always something which the stomach can't digest. And dieting means partial star vation, just at a time when nour ishment will do more than medi cine. Kodol is essential. It docs what nothing else can do. It gives such instant relief?such complete relief?that the stomach very quickly recovers. You won't need an artificial di gester long if you employ this per fect help. Our Guarantee On the first dollar bottle of Kodol your druggist gives a signed guar antee. If it fails to do all we claim, your druggist returns your money. You take no risk whatever. This $1.00 bottle contains 2J/2 times as much as the 50c bottle. Made^by E. C. DeWitt & Co., Chicago. Fifteenth Year 220 Students Orangeburg, O A high grade boarding scltoo 1 for boys and girls.

I Tnere was a pile of letters on Mr. Horace Shenton s breakfast-taule when that gentleman enured the r<,om at nine o'clock one winter's morning, ana. adjusting his glasses, he began to read them. The} were mostly of a business na ture. It was some time belore he reached the last letter, and he gave a short gasp of surprise and suppress ed joy as he glanced at the super scription. "From Bob," he murmured, push lug back his .hair from the table with more comurt. "From my boy Bob! I wonder *nat h?= has to jay? It's close on two years uo?v since we quar relled?and oil!?how lonely my life has been since then!" Lost in a pleasant reverie, he al most jumped out of his chair, v.1:en a gentle voice greeted him from the threshold of the room. A young lady in walking attire was standing there timidly. "Ethel! Bless my life, child, what a start you've given me! And how early you are out and abroad!" Mr. Shenton cried, rising hurriedly to greet her. "But i forgot! You have only just returned, and like a duti I ful young lady, you've come round as soon as possible to visit your poor old guardian. I'm glad you've come, glad that ydu are the first to hear the news. Robert is to be home this evening. The dear boy has written | such a nice letter, and?egad, it's made me happy." I Ethel Carbery had been gazing shy ly and nervously at Mr. Shenton, but her face took on a brighter look aa he spoke. She advanced to meet htm, placed her email hand In his. and looked Into the face which was so strangely transformed. "I want to tell you something," she began tremulously. "And I do hope you'll be kind and patient with me. You're my guardian, and you've j always been good to me, and?and 1 there's someone who loves me very , much." "Eh? What?" Mr. Shenton cried, j and now he was wonderfully alert j "Excuse me, my dear, but I'm afraid wasn't p?ying particular attention to ? w.tat you said. Did I hear?er did j you say-" "Oh, you will listen to me!" Eth-I el went on rapidly, now that she had taken the plunge, as with hands tightly clasped, she spoke hurriedly and pleadingly. "He loves me for myself, I know he does, for he can't j guess that I have any money of my own And he awfully nice, so own. And he'g awfully nice, so "His name is Claude Milverton, and he's not a bit like the rest!" Eth el went on feverishly. "He" "Not a bit like the rest!" "No; not "a little bit! He says there are plenty of people?lots of them?in the profession who"? "In the profession?" he repeated slowly. "Pray, Ethel, to what pro fession does this young man belong?" "He's an actor!" Ethel gasped, her heart sinking as she saw the change in her guardian's expression. ? * * Dinner was over and Horace Shen ton and his son were sitting together gazing into the glowing fire. Mr. Shenton sighed. "It's a curious thing how joy is al ways mingled with sadness, Bob." he ' said reflectively. "Your letter this ! morning made this a red-letter day for me, and to-day has also brought a great .deal of sadness to another, and she's fretting at this moment, I'm afraid. A young lady, Hob! A dear, nice girl, whose father died eighteen months ago leaving her to j :my charge." "And what has happened?" "She has fallen in love, and I can't ! approve of the mutch." "I wish I could, but that's lnipos- ' Bible," he continued dolefully. "She's gone clean against her father's wishes ' and my principles. ' What do you ? think?" and he "lowered his voice. "She's fallen in love with an actor. Bob- -a worthless fellow and"? j Rob ShenLou gazed do wn at hi * [ father quickly. . "An idle, worthless fellow! She'd J given her heart to a chap Ifke that!" j he cried. "Poor girl! But what's his name? And do you know for cor- I tain that he's idle or worthies.;? Per- . haps" The door yawned open. Ethel Car bery was standing on the threshold. Mr. Shenton turned round and ^a/.ed nervously; a great surprise came in to his eyes. Ethel advanced quii'kly. "Oh, Mr. Shenton, I've come to plead with you again!" she cried. "I've"? She stopped and then gave 1 a gasp of joy. Claude!" she gaspe'd, and to tr. 1 Slw uton's amazement she rushe to 1 |Bo . and flung her arms around his becK. Mr. Shenton Btumbled to his leet ' Bless my life* That's my son Bob!" he stammered. "And also Claude Milverton, a rising star in the theatrical world." Bo>> laughed proudly. "Ethel, dear, Isn't this quite wonderful!" Mr. Shjatoii rubbed his forehead. ? I should ju3t think It is," he.e it tered. "So it's Bob who is your lowr, Ethel! And he's an actor! And he's saving money. And"? 'And you can't oppose this mach, Und?" Bob urged.

"There are few persons," remark ed a jeweller, "who are able to pur chase a diamond on the strength of their own knowledge and observa tion and without placing imph'it confidence iu tne man wuo sells tbo stone, it is a tact that even pawn brokers have often been taken in oy jewelry and percious stone fakers. "Although it taaes many years of actual observation and experience before one can become a diamond ex pert, there are a few simple teats which will considerably. aid a buy ei of diamonds. One test is to prick a needle hole throngh a card and look at the hole through the doubt ful stone. "If the latter is spurious two holes will be seen, but if it is a diamond J only one hole will be visible. Every j imitation stone which resembles a j diamond gives a dojble reflection, j while the diamond's refraction is single. I "This Is a delicate test, 'because it ' is difficult to see even a sharp and defined object through a diamond. The single refraction of the diamond also allows one to determine an un | certain stone. I "If the finger Is placed behind it and viewed through the stone with a watchmaker's glass, the grain of the skin will be plainly seen if the etone is not a diamond . But if it is a diamond the grain of the skin will not be distinguished at all. "A diamond in solid settings may be identified in the same manner. If genuine the setting at the back can oot be discerned, but if it is a phony stone the foil or setting will be s^en. "There is no acid which has any perceptible effect upon a genuine diamond. Hydrofluoric acid, if dropped on a stone made .of glass, will corrode it, but will not affect a diamond one way or the other. A trained eye can see the hardne.sa in a diamond, whereas the imitations appear soft to the vision of the ex perts." The Soldiers' Monument in the cemetery of Tipton, Mich, was the first monument erected in honor of the soldiers killed in the Civil War raised in the United States. It was erected in 1.S66, and was dedicated on July 4, of that year. The Value of Expectation. A popular New England preacher says that if his sermon ever stretches beyond the twenty minutes to which he means always to limit it the words of hi:; little daughter ring in his ears . and he reflects that some of his con- I gregation are doubtless feeling as : she. did on a memorable occasion. The occasion whs the little girl's sixth birthday, which chanod to come on Thanksgiving Day. She went to church with her mo- j ther and . ,it quietly through the ser- J vice. The sermon was unusually j good, fie minister could not help j thinking; he had plenty to say, and he said it fluently. "How did you like my sermon?" | he psked his young critic as they j walked hnnie together, her small | hand in his big one. "You preached awful long father," said the little girl, "but I beared it beconse I love you, and I knew I'd have a nice dinner when I got home and forget what I'd been through." ?Youth's Companion. A Cure for Seasickness. A chat with a hardy Breton fisher man brought forth this novel oure for seasickness. While the old man told of the storms that he had been through, the narrow escapes he had had. and the long journeys he had taken, he was interrupted by the question, "And seasickness? Were you ever sick?" "Never," replied the old man, "and H tell you the reason if you like to hear?I never went on any ship without taking a little mirror in my pocket. As soon as I felt the sickness coming on 1 looked In the glass, and all symp toms passed away. I got the cure from my father, and I never knew it to fall." The receipt is easily tried, and if It does not convince tha skeptical there is the consolation that no loss need be entailed in giving it a chance.?P T. O. Attention, Asthma Suffers!
