N 70 Years Young Works Hard Every Day MR. RICHARD SLYE. Miller's Herb Extract (formerly called Herb Juice) continues to prove its merits to well known Washington people, and they in re- turn continue to give statements of praise for this great medicine that their friends and others who are in poor health may know of its great work. Mr. Richard Slye, who re- sides at 214 John Marshall Place N.W., has been a resident of Wash- ington since 1886 and is known to hundreds in the city. He said only a few days ago, “Yes, I think Miller's Herb Extract is the greatest regula- tor and health restorer I have ever used, and it has made me feel like a new man. T was 70 my last birth- day, but I still work hard eight hours a day and don't ‘mind it one bit since taking this medicine. Last Winter I was laid up for some time and after I was able to be out it seemed as though I cculd not get myself straightened out, my liver .was out of order, dizziness troubled me a great deal and my legs felt so weak I could hardly stand up and my head hurt all the time, often felt as_though I was going to fall over. My kidneys were also out of order, back hurt and I was badly constipated. I tried a number of medicines, but they failed to have the desired effect, so I made up my mind to stop everything else and give this extract a trial. I have now used ten bottles and I feel better in every way than I have for years, don’t mind a hard day's work and every bit of my former trouble has passed away, do not have a pain or ache. I have found this medicine 10 be fine for constipation, regulates the bowels, cleans the entire system, puts the stomach in good order, in- creases the appetite; in short, just about makes a new person out of a fellow. I am more tl satisfied with_the results in my case and do not hesitate in recommending Mil- ler's Herb Extract (formerly called Herb Juice) to all my friends and others.” It you feel in need of this medi- cine, “don’t experiment with some- thing supposed to he just as good, go to the Peoples Drug Store, 50! 7th St. N.W, talk to the man who there for the sole purpose of explain- ing Miller’s Herb Extract (formerly called Herb Juice) and learn why it is the choice of hundreds of thou- sands.

The man is presumptuous!” sald she, and off came her_silken robe. | “Besides, 'twould be damp.” And | down rippled her abundant hair . A distant clock chimed midnight. “No! said my lady, and off came her buckled shoes. “Odious thought!” And off came a garter. “Helen!” the merest whisper, yet back slipped the garter, and up rose my lady, |to stand at the open lattice. A rustle amid the ivy, a sound that | grew ever more frightfully loud! My lady bounded to the bed, caught up a dressing-gown and had barely folded it about her shapeliness when, beyond the open lattice, & bewigged | head rose. < | ‘Ma'am,” said Sir Richard's voice, | e you coming down?” " she answered. 'Alack,” he murmured, “then needs must I sit and dangle my legs, for I am here seeking yvour aid and counsel, Helen, in matter of life and death!” | “Is this so—then . .. I'll come down,"” saild she, after a moment's frowning | thought. Even as she spoke his head vanished. She found him awaiting her on the terrace, but neither uttered a word un- til they had reached the cherry-tree. “Well?” she demanded at last. “Since sir, pray what now?” st,” he answered, “since I may not be always near—be warned, madam neither walk nor ride abroad after S t. and never alone. And wherefore not?” she retorted. | W 'Gainst whom do you warn me and at?” “I' faith,” said he, is what T can- not tell you for lack o’ proof. Howbeit, I do believe some danger threatens, so— | pray be warned.” | “But of whom? Of what?” she re- | peated. “Oh, 'tis folly!—you write me | warning by day, you speak me warning THE EVEI\’II;TG STAR, WASHINGTON. D. ¢, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1929.'

Despard, and you may trust to his honor.” “You think so, ma’am?"” “Well, Richard,” said she, “I yet walt your answer—where was it you lay hid this morning?” “Faith, Helen, 'twere hard to say. I am here and there, my lurking places are many. Go with me a small distance farther and I'll show you one.” For by this time they had crossed the wide kitchen garden, and now Helen paused at a flight of stone steps, mossy and age worn. £ h"Why, 'tis the sunk garden!” sald she “True,” he answered. “As 3 boy I used to play here with my cousin Julian. And ’tis by reason of him I seek your :| aid, Helen, to read a strange letter, and I would beg you set your woman’s wit to resolve the meaning on 't . . . 50, wilt go with me, Helen?” “Aye, Richard, I will,” she answered kindly, “but whither wouldst take me?” “To'a place where I may light a lan- tern safe from all chance observation. Wilt give me thy hand?"” Mutely she obeyed him, and hand in hand they descended crumbling steps into a dusk that gloomed more dark be- low. Here her hand snugged itself a little closer in his. “Hast ever seen & guhuz, ‘Helen?" “ “No, nor wish to. ive you?” “Aye, I've thought to see several o’ lxlgle—?thml dost not believe in such idle olly 2" “Nay, not when the sun shines.” “Neither do I, Helen.” “8o, sir, having seen ghosts, you dis- believe in them?” “‘Heartily, my lady, for these phan- toms proved too purposeful and over lid—here 1s one o' my divers hiding e spoke he pointed to a seeming wall shut off by a tangle of weeds and bushes. Going in amid these bushes, he rrted the dense vy, disclosing a low and narrow arch that opened upon an echoing blackness. “It was a culvert once that fed the moat. Wilt venture in with me, Helen?” “‘Oh, surely!” She felt his fingers tighten upon hers for a moment, then they stepped out of the starry dusk into a pitchy darkness, between narrow walls. Standing in_this awful darkness she waited while Richard lighted the lan- tern. Then taking a cloak from some niche, he spread it against the wall and invited her to be seated. And now, seated opposite to her, 8ir Richard drew | from his breast a wallet and taking | :12":1“ a folded paper, placed it in her nd. “Thou 'rt pale, Richard,” said she. “Why, then,” he answered, smiling a little wearily, “ 'tis very well, for I have been playing ghost, and these are pallid | things, or should be.” He started suddenly, the words died | on his lips as from the outside world stole a soft, leafy stirring; now, behold- ing the sudden, flerce intentness of his look, it seemed as if some dire change was wrought in him even as she watch- ed—he was afoot- and had vanished, creeping with never a sound—and she was staring after him in a dreadful dis- may.

Instantly and HEAVY WHEAT MOVEMENT INTO CANADA REPORTED Trade Body Official Says American Grain Is Being Stored in Manitoba. By the Associated Press. WINNIPEG, Manitoba, August 21.— ‘The Winnipeg Evening Tribune Mon- day quoted G. Pleper, president of the Gretna Board of Trade, as saying that American wheat, which is selling at 25 and 30 cents below Canadian prices, has been coming over the border into Canada since the beginning of the sea- son's threshing. Gretna is in Southern afllnlwbl, near the United States bor- er. Mr. Pieper stated that last week about. 1,000 bushels from across the line reached the Gretna elevators. The rea- son, he said, is that United States wheat pays only 12 cents duty, “while we pay 42 cents to export grain to the States.” “As their prices are 25 cents below ours,” he continued, “the Canadian duty does not offer our producers much pro- tection.” E. B. Ramsay, general manager of the Canadian wheat pool and chairman of the new Grain Commission, the news- paper said, confirmed the statement that wheat was coming across the bor- der. Some of it, he sald, was selling at 30 cents below Canadian prices. He did not know who the buyers were, but apparently the elevators were privately owned., Oudin Estate Set -{sébo,ooo. NEW YORK, August 21 (#).—The will of Lucien Oudin, lawyer, filed Monday, disposes of an estate estimated at _more than $300,000. Charles P.

It is intended that the Roosevelt be a car for all—a car that will appeal to the man with a million just as emphatically as to the man with a thousand. For this reason, Marmon saw to its outward beauty—to the excellence of its performance—to the harmony of its interior—to its faithfulness—just as. painstakinfily asto a car costing several oosevelt price.

Nowhere else at this price can you get the smooth, effortless, alert performance of this Marmon-built Roosevelt Eight. - For harmony inside, Marmon has used cloth (not mohair), hardware and all other fittings that would do credit to $1500 cars. For faithfulness, Marmon has built the car almost entirely in Marmon plants. Motors, bodies—all major units OPEN EVENINGS A. G, MOSES MOTOR CoO.
