Auto-intoxication can be best
Ascribed to our own neglect or
carelessness. When the organs fail
in the discharge of their duties,
the putrefactive germs set in and
generate toxins—actual jxrisons,

of the face, extreme lassitude, bil

acidity of the stomach, heartburn,
offensive breath, anemia, lots of
weight and muscular power, de
crease of vitality or lowering of
resistance to infectious diseases,
disturbance of the ej'e, dyspepsia,
indigestion, gastritis, many forms
of catarrh, asthma, ear affections

I arose silently to my feet, fully must have struck as I fell—towing by
nw’are that all hope of thwarting this
villainy lay In immediate action. San
chez had turned slightly and stood
with his face toward the bay. I ven
tured ip-cautious step forward and
stood on the open sand, scarcely a
yard to his rear. Some vague sense
of my presence must have influenced
the man, for he swung suddenly about,
^uttering a stifled cry of startled sur
prise, as we met face to face. For an
instant wv were locked so closely
wdthln each other’s desperate grip, his
head bent beneath my arm, with my
fingers chit^hing^at his throat to block

knowledge of his assailant’s identity.
But the man was like a tiger. The
surprise of attack was to my advan

‘ray first hold, and his eyes were glar

me, his free hand instantly grasping
at his knife. Even as he jerked It
forth I crushed his wrist*within ray
fingers, forcing, his forearm back.
There was no outcry, no noise, except
that of our heavy breathing and tram
pling feet. Personal hatred had as
cendency In both our hearts—f doubt
if he ever thought,of aught else but
the desire to kill me there with his
own hands. Only once did he even

The dory caught in some current,
floated at the very extremity of its
slender towline, and in consequence
the sloop appeared little more than a
mere smudge, when -my eyes endeav
