El PW iTT our MB THE STABSi After He Had Told Helen Whole Truth. By S. E. KISER. For three hours Helen Sibley had been waiting at Northport Junction. Luckily the evening was pleasant, so that she was not compelled to ait in the stuffy, dingy little station. There was ju. t one pretty tiling about Northport Junction, and that was Helen. It the train for which she was waiting ever came and ever departed again. Northport Junction would resume Its habit of being about as unlovely a spot-as one might find within the temperate zone. While Helen remained the place would possess one attraction that would have lent distinction to a far more important and a far more splendid center of activity than the Junction was ever likely to become. The operator in the bay window that Jutted out into the point of land between the branching tracks evidently had an eye for beauty as well as an ear for Morse. As Helen walked up and down the platform he watched her and became thoughtful. He wondered why it was that nature bestowed Ler gifts so lavishly upon some girls and treated others so shabbily. The beauty that Helen possessed might have made a dozen plain girls fair if it bad been distributed among them. Such was the operator's reasoning. The operator at Northport Junction was a puuusupuci. But Helen was not thinking of philosophy, and If she had noticed that the I operator was eagerly watching her the fact neither added to her pleasure nor caused her annoyance. For some i reason she was thinking of Tom Harlow. Perhaps it was because of the loneliness of her surroundings. It was nearly a year since she had refused to listen when Tom had said that ho could "explain everything In good time," and for months she had thought that she was never going to have any interest in him again. Thinking of Tom naturally caused her to think of Mrs. Danforth, the pretty, young grass-widow who had come between them. There was something mysterious about Mrs. Danforth. Peo She Was Thinking of Tom- Harlow. pie talked about her, but nobody seemed to know just why. She had come to Springfield a stranger and she had been careful to leave her past behind her. It had not taken her long to find rlends.and she was quickly admitted to the best social circles. With plenty of money, she lived at the most fashionable hotel, she entertained lavishly. and her clothes were the talk of the town. Then, one day, she disappeared, and on the following morning Tom Harlow told Helen that it had become necessary for him to go to Chicago. A week later he returned, but a substantial citizen of Springfield had returned before him. The substantial citizen had seen Tom and Mrs. Danfortb together in Chicago. Of course Tom had assured Helen that it was all right, but he had not explained. He had merely promised to do so "In good time." And Helen had naturally decided that the "good time" could never come. So Tom went away. She thought over all this as she impatiently waited at Northport Junction. A dozen times she tried to fix her thoughts on other thing', but always they turned back to the old subject. She became angry with herself, at last, and more for the purpose of trying to forget Tom Harlow than with the hope of obtaining information Bhe went into the station and asked the operator if it was likely that the train for Medford would arrive on tima "She's just reported fifty minutes late," the operator informed her. "There's a washout up the road." Helen turned away with a feeling of hopelessness and went outside again. If Northport had looked dismal to her before, it now seemed decolae. While Bhe was trying to count the appalling number of minutes that she would have to wait, she heard the whistle of an engine away up the curve around the hill or the main line. When the loug train stopped at the Junction Helen saw a man step down Iron on of the Pullman cars away at the rear. She paid no attention to him. supposing he was a passenger who had merelj stepped off to get a breath of fresh air. but after the train had gone on she noticed that the man was walking slowly down the cinder path beside the track toward the station. For a moment she gazed at him. and then hurried inside. It was Tom Har ow. carrying a suit-case Selecting the darkest corner in the station. Helen sat down turned her back toward the door, and-waited. hoping that no one would come in and fearing something that she could not have explained. Her corner was so dark, and she remained so silent that Tom entore.l without noticing her. Fuel af the Future. In the opinion of many authorities, when tha existing supplies of fuel become liralted men must rely upon al cohol p-oduced from vegetation or some 6ort which may be produced in any reqaired quantity. It is thought that the alcohol will be manufactured either f*om potato starch or sawdust, but it has been suggested that when the question becomes urgent some h'gbly specialized plant will have been brought into existence for the sole purpose of absorbing the tnsxi 0 ' When does the train leave for Medford?" he asked at the ticket window. "It's pretty hard to tell," the operator replied. "She's reported fifty minutes late, but there's a washout up the road, and she may be held up all night." ' That's encouraging," Tom remarked. "What I've seen of this place doesn't make me yearn to spend the night here. Where's the town?" "This is It." "Isn't there a hotel of any kind?" "No, nothing in that line except the farm house half a mile down the track, where the night operator and I board." "I suppose there's no hack?" "None that I've ever heard of." "What time do you light up here? They ought to let you UBe plenty of oil in such a lonesome place as this. It's getting pretty dark." "Just a minute. Here's my call." The Operator turned to his instruments and Tom Harlow waited at the ticket window, hoping there might be encouraging news concerning the train for Medford; but be was doomed to be disappointed. "I guess you may as well make up your mind to bang around here all night." said the operator after the instrument had ceased clicking (he spoke rather loudly for Helen's benefit) ; "they say the track is washed out in half a dozen places. There's been a cloud-burst." While Tom drummed with his flngertina urw-in the lpdpp of the ticket Win- ' i'" ?-v .~-0v ? ? dow the operator Hghted the lamp in his otdce and then proceeded to lllu- J mlnate the waiting room, which served for both men and women. For a moment after the light had been turned on Tom Harlow looked silen at Helen, who sat with her back toward him, her head bent and her face hidden in her hands. The operator turned to his instruments, which were clicking frantically. "Helen," Tom said very tenderly after he had paused beside her. She looked up at kim. and be saw that there aere tears in her eyes. He reached for one of her hands, but she drew away from him and shrank a little farther into her corner. "Helen," he said again, "I've come to explain to you. I supposed you were already at Medford. 1 was going there to tell you." She stood up, and when he again at- | tempted to take her hand in his she did not object. "Let's go outside," he suggested, "outside, under the stars, where I can tell yor everything?where nothing will be between us and heaven." The operator was busy, and did not 1 notice that the waiting room was empty. "You see, Helen,/it was necessary for Mrs. Danforth to take somebody into her confidence," Tom said. "For some reason she selected me. Her forf mer husband, who was a scalawag, had informed the secret service agents that j she had been smuggling Jewelry, it was merely a case of blackmail. Sue had refused to support him and he I tried to get her to buy him off. She j I needed somebody to help hor establish ; an alibi, and at the same t'me she | didn't want the story of her troubles | to get out. So she drafted me into { her service, and I couldn't very well beg off. She was a woman in distress, thaty was all." "But why didn't you tell me before?" Helen asked. "She had asked me not to tell anybody until she gave me permission to do so." "Then she has given you permission ?and you have seen her again?" "No, I have neither seen her nor j [heard from her. The man has made a confession, and the whole story is in the papers." She walked away from him, crossed the platform and stood for a long time, ' looking at the silent hills that lay ueep In the gathering shadows of the night. At length she turned, came half way back to him, and then stopped. He approached her, held out his arms, and asked: "Don't you believe I have told you the truth, Helen?that I have told you all there is to tell?" She dlcl not speak, but put her arms about his neck and laid her neck against his breast, while his arms closed about her. Thus for a long time they stood beneath the stars. When they returned to the waiting room the operator informed them that : the train for Medford would arrive in ten minutes. At Medford Helen had friends, and at Medford there were preachers.

Too Much Enthusiasm for Idleness. lx>ng ago Robert Stevenson suggested that a lad who played truant might be doing himself more good than he who never missed a lecture. Now we hear a professor declaring We are prone to forget that the twin gifts of youth are enthusiasm and idleness." All our young people are terrifically in earnest about something or other. But they have not much chance of idleness. Even their games are so organized that sport itself begins to be a systematic business. "?Ixmdon Telegraph Talking Machine and Aeroplane.

An Ohio woman was almost distracted with coffee dyspepsia and heart trouble. Like thousands of others, the drug ?caffeine?in coffee was slowly but steadily undermining her nervous system and interfering with natural digestion of food. (Tea is just as Injurious as coffee because it contains caffeine, the poisonous drug found in coffee.) "For 30 years," she writes, "I have used coffee. Have always been sickly?had heart trouble and dyspepsia with ulcers in stomach and mouth so bad, sometimes, I was almost distracted and couid hardly eat a thing for a week. "I could not sleep for nervousness, and when I would lie down at night I'd belch up coffee and my heart would trouble me. It was like poison to me.

LESSON FOR NOVEMBER 10. WORLD'S TEMPERANCE SUNDAY. I.ESSOX TEXT-Hosea 7. GOLDEN TEXT?"Woe unto them that rise up early In the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that tarrj late into the night, till wine Inflame the.n."? Isaiah 5:11. We turn aside today from studying the life of ChriBt to consider one of | the things that caused the downfall of Ephraim, that is the northern kingdom, and also of Israel. 1. e., those who composed the southern kingdom. The chief counterfeit of the Holy Spirit employed by Satan Is the ingpiration and the intoxication pro | duoed in the use of liquors, and we do well to pause and consider the works of him whom Jesus came to destroy. (Heb. 2:14). The lesson naturally divides itself into two divisions, vv. 1-7 and vv. ' 8-16. This entire section really begins in chapter six verse four and contains the response of Jehovah to the cry of the remnant of Israel and of Ephraim in the last days. In the first half we see the Iniquity of Ephraim and Israel "discovered," i. e., revealed, and in the second section there is discovered or revealed to us God's wrath against them, for their hypocrisy. I. God declares that it was his desire to heal them both, (v 1). It Is not God's will that any should perish, I be has no pleasure in the death of the 1 wicked, (Ezek. 33:11, 18:32). But while Jehovah would have healed them they would not be healed, (cf. Matt. 23:37 and Luke 13:34), and hence it is that his love serves to reveal their wickedness. Dr. Torrey J points out eight charges brought against the common people "Ephraim" , and the court and city "Samaria," for this evil attacks both alike. Never Hidden From God. 11 \ "PoloaknniV1 Irr 11 Nnthlnc is \ X J 1'OtOCIIVUU \ ? , A/, - D more common among the evils of Intemperance than falsehood; as we have suggested It is the Devil's false imitation of true inspiration. (2) "A thief comes in." Intemperance steals not only a man's money but his repu- , tation, love for his family, in fact any and everything a sober man will hold dear. (3) "They consider not In their hearts." Like Rip Van Winkle, meu say "this last doesn't count," forget! ting that It does count and that God remember all of their wickedness. A violation of his law will receive punishment in due season. America is paying the price of a manifold increase in taxation, in murder, in imbecility, in divorce and suicide, the overwhelming portion of which can be traced to intemperance. God is remembering all our wickedness and verily a troop of robbers are stripping us (v. 1). We ofttlmes hide our evil deeds from man but never from God. and a man's sins will find him out (Psalm 9:16). These people made the king glad (v. 3,) 1. e., the king delighted in this wickedness. Let us not forget that righteousness exalteth a nation and sin is a reproach to any people. (4) "They are all "adulterers," (v. 4). ; Of course in this connection we know thefe was a remnant of true followersj but the prevailing vileness was such as to call forth this terrific indictment. We need to remember that , the connection between the liquor traffic and white slavery is so close as to defy separation. Why do politicians and police officials connive at the social evil that is far worse in its ravages each year than any epidemic of i the past centuries? Simply because of the profits that accrue. Like as an oven heated by the baker, so is the firp of lust and of appetite and of avarice. In many quarters we seem to be hastening on toward a similar condition of society. Is the world then getting no better? Certainly. ( The good is better but the evil is more refined and subtle, hence worse. The millennium will not come through the development of present day powers. It will come only when he shall come to set up his throne whose right It is to reign. (5) "The princes have l made themselves sick with the heat of wine." (v. 5 R. V. > The physical ravages of intemperance are so well known as to call for no comment. But the moral sickness seems to be hidden from, or else ignored by myriads. Judges give their testimony as to the percentage of crime attributable to liquor. "The Great Destroyer." | A liquor drinker is almost invariably a scorner. He scorns the power of liquor over himself, its effect upon the nation. "Sum up the economic loss of efficiency the cost of crime, pauperism, and insanity, and we have an economic burden of more than half of the wealth produced by this na tlon." (See Congressman H. R Hobson's. "The Great Destroyer"). (6) "They have made ready their heart like an oven while they lie in wait," <vv. fi. 7, referring undoubtedly to the heat of ange'r and passion as well as of lust. (7> "They have devoured their judges" (v. 7). One has but to review the pages of history to appreciate the overthrow of priest, peasant and potentate alike. (8) "There is none that calleth upon me" (v. 71. The turning aside from God was noted at the outset, here again we see that the neglect and forgetfulness of God 1b the true source of all of man's sinning. II. God intended Israel, and intends us. to be separate people. The prophet setj before us the result of this refusal upon Kphraim. A cake not turned is a cake half baked, one half burn ed. This metaphor has many applications. Our social life, our political life, our spiritual life is too often one that Is half turned, one-half burned to a crisp and the other half raw. I-ay emphasis upon the Golden Text and the general facts of the temperance question. Alcohol 13 injurious to all kinds of life: there is little, if any, necessity for its use In medicine, Usually it is a positive hindrance. The story of "Old Rorn Drunk" in Regbe's "Twice Rorn Men," can be told with profit, a man who returned to Jehovah and found in the power of the blood of his son healing for his : sickness. Lay strong emphasis upon pledge signing, for prevention is stronger than cure. Also, unlike the ; old Romans, our belly should not be ' our God. I BABY'S HAPPINESS DEPENDS ON HEALTH When your baby 1b cross and fretful Instead of the happy, laughing little dear you are accustomed to, in all probability the digestion has become disarranged and the bowels need attention. Give it a mild laxative, dispel the irritability, and bring back the happy content of babyhood. The mother should make sure that the laxative used contains no opiate or narcotic drug. A mild, pleasant-, tasting, harmless laxative like Dr., Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is ideal for children because of its natural composition and gentle action. A small dose of Syrup Pepsin at bedtime will bring easy, certain relief next morning, and with no distressful griping or ether discomfort. You can get Dr. j Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin at any drug store.
