If digestion is weak, don't diet? Don't Starve When the stomach cannot digest ?II foods, some people cat only foods that it can digest. That means partial starvation* The various parts of the body re quire different food elements. And when some arc omitted, some parts are robbed of nourishment. Food will do more than medi cine when we are dealing with weakness. Those with weak digestion's need it more than the strong. The right waj' is to eat what you reed and want, then let Kodol di gest it. For Kodol digests everything. It doesn't rely solely on pepsin, r.s other digesters do. Pepsin di gests albumen only. Kodol digests starch, .fats and phosphates just as well as albu men. It also does what the bowels do toward digestion. It supplies pan creatic juice. Kodol alone does' all that the stomach docs and all that the bowels do. No other digester completely di gests all foods. Kodol stops the irritation of un digested food. AH pains cease in stantly. It gives the weak stomach rest, A weak stomach is like a lame ankle. Nature alone can cure it. The best you can do is to give Na ture a chance. That is what Kodol does. Let it, for a little time, do all the stomach's work. Let it stop the irritation, stop the pain. You will be surprised to see how quickly the weak stomach recovers. Our Guarantee Onvthc first dollar bottle of Kodol your druggist gives a signed guar antee. If it fails to do all wc claim, your druggist returns your money. You take no risk whatever.

The unnerving, harrow ing screams of a strong man, whose strength and manhood have collap sed beneath the sudden strain of Bome deadly fear, some overpowering agony. ?? The river rooked placidly beautiful A growing circle of wavelets swept slowly over its calm surface?swept away as though shrinking in horror from the grewsome bubbles that came sputtering up where the shim mer had sunk like lead. A minute before Vernon Dale had stopped to admbre the solitary swim mer's strength and grace as he cut through the water like Home fabu lous sea creature, with a beautiful ?ide stroke. "Help!" Dale started and looked back. The swimmer hRd disappeared, but a tiny whirlpool on the peaceful face of tfco river showed where the young man had been forced to yidd. "Cramp!u muttered Dale. y* v,p. Dale was a strong ewimmer him self. He flung off his coat and vest and was tearing madly at his heavy walking boots, when he stopped and seemed suddenly as if turned to stone. He had thought of Nina! "I can't do it!" he said hoarsely, as if to the man whose life had been choked and stilled out of him some where down among the dark loath some weeds and slime. "I can't do It I daren't ri?k it. I might kill the woman I love!" ? * * Mechanically Dale put on his .-oat and vest again. No one would ever know!' "We will keep our secret we'l?we two!" be satd in a horrible whisper, looking down as if he could see some thing at the bottom of the dark riv er. Then h* glanced hastily left and r ght. Fomeone might have been watching after all. An hour after when Vernon Dale arrived faint, sick and pallid, at the parsonage, he knew that he dared not keep h?? terrible secret. Until^ that dar his life had be^n.clean and he had been accounted an honorable man. He must tell Borne one, and that very soon. "Is you brother In?" he asked her soon. * "No. Vernon, he is out walking, but Be will be in soon. I am so sure you and Claude will be real friends? oh. Vernon, something is the matter with you?tell me what 11 if!" He burled his face in his hands. He was undergoing torture, for be knew he could not keep silenc much longer. Nina was on her knees besiJe him. He felt her soft face touch his arms Mid .her, arum x twine around his. "Vernon', if there is anything on your mind tell me. No or* can help yon ?s I can, for no one loveis you as I do!" "You ar? right, Nina," he answer ad in a ooaree broken voice. "1 will tell you?I must." She waited. Her eye ?wer? fixed ob him in mute agony. "As I was coming along the bank on my way here, there wae a man ?wlmming. I parsed him, and when I was about a hundred yards from him, he gave a cry and tank." "How horrible!" she murmured with a shudder. "But?buv. that it not all?" "No, iJlna. I ran back to the place uhere he sank, but I did not try to save him for your sake. I was just on the point of plunging in when I thought of you, and of all I am to you?and then I couldn't. God forgive me if I did wrong, but fc seemed to me at the time that it wafe right." ? ? ? She rose to her feet and staggered to a chair, white as death. "If you had diej'" she said, clenching her hands and looking at him wildly. "If you had died * * I could have borne it. I should have known I loved a brave man!" "Have mercy on nie. Nina!" he gasped, loosing his hold of her. She rose and stood before him, looking at him with eyes that neither reproached, pitied, nor pardoned him. He stretched out his hands to her in an agony of appeal. "And I will try to love you again." She flung herself down upon a sofa and gave way to an agony of weep ing. "Oh, Claude! Claude!" she wailed. "Very well," said Vernon grimly, "I will abide by your brother's de ^ion." A crunching of heavy feet on the gravel walk beneath the window. The subdued hum of hushed voices. Vernon sprang to the window hi an agony of vague fear. "What is that? Who are they?" screamed Nina in an agony of horror. He did not answer. He was look ing out at something a couple of men were slowly carrying up to the house. Something covered with a tarpaulin that they bore on a stretch er. "Something has happened?-I must go and see. He moved forward to restrain her. but she went out or tiie j room. He stood there by himself, tremb- ! ling violently in every nerve, a cold ! perspiration htirstlnj; from every j pore. In his agony be cried aloud.' And Vernon Dale learned the ver dict. The lifeless body of Nina's brother proclaimed him guilty. Will Interest Many.

I ZCNI INDIAN CORN PLANTER. Primitive Implement Still In Use by Red Men of '.lie Southwest. The Zuni Indians of New Mexico are a self-supporting people who re tain many of the interesting customs of prohistoric ancestors. The accom panying drawing represents the im plement which they use for planting corn. It is hewn from a piece of hard cedar and is practically a wood en spade, the projecting horizontal piece near the base being for the foot of the digger to press upon. In early spring, when the oak, leaves are the size of squirrels' ears, the Zuni far mer fills a basket with seed corn oi as many colors as Joseph's coat; at.d slinging it and his corn planter ac ross his burro's hack, he mounts the patient little beast himself and ^o-es jogging out on the plain to hiss sandy corn ground, which may Ix many miles from his home. .Mois ture in that arid land lies deep, so ie must make witli nis wooden plant? c a much deeper bole than an Eastern farmer would think of making. Then he drops into it a Tew grains oi corn, draws the sandy loam carefully over them with ? the blade or the planter, and proceeds to dig anothei hole six of eight feet away. Aud so on until the seed is all planted. Monster and Rattler. Dr. James B. Builitt, or Lou is vll I ?, writes of a Gila monster and a rat tle-snake: "A two years' residence in Arizona made me quite familiar with hol? of these reptiles; for good part ?l the time 1 had one of the former tied to the leg of my office table bj a string. In his native habitat the monster is credited with being the enemy of the rattlesnake, and I? said to -kill - him'. "Chancing to have both reptile* on hand at the same time. 1 put them in a larg* box together au-\ awaited results. "The rattler coiled in one end of the box; the monster would wtd; dle np to him, root under his coifs with his nose and finally nip down on a coil near the tall. "The rattler would then spring to the other end of the box and recoil. After this had happened a number, of times the monster Anally suc ceeded in seizing the snake by the neck just back of the heed. "He held a Jirm grip until the snake' was choken to death. The monster sickened and died a couple of days afterward. On removing his skin I found two punctured wounds on his back, evidently the result ol the snake's having struck him once."i ?Chicago News. ' A Mussulman at Prayer. When saying Iiis prayers the ?nie Mussulman Is not easily disturbed. Hans Doeriug, in his account of nis travels in Chinese Turkestan, writes "It is an interesting sight to s?-e a Mussulman perform his devotions. Through the piece of glass in my paper window I <aw the iuterpretei spread his carpet hi front of .us house just opposite the one in whicc I was living. His wife-and child sai quite close to him talking loualj with some visitors, but this did not in the least disturb the old man ui his devotions. "In spite of the noise the melodious chanting of the korau was quite aud ible. The worshiper kowtowed ?.ev eral times and cried 'Allah! Allah! Allah!' Then for a while stood rev erentially clasping bis hands cross wise upon his breast, alter which !)e joined in the conversation. Mis wife then went through the same perfor niance, doing exactly the same as her husband. This they do every morning and evening whether (here . re friends with them or not." C nage Wrought by Rats.
