HENRY MORANS, JewELER 321 MAIN ST. NEW BRITAIN, CONN. N it it i M(ll}lhl!llll B REVELATIONS ADELE ay Why Dicky’s Inquiry About Madge Wrist Watch Gave Him Joy and Her Sadness. Don’t you ever take that rist watch off, Madge?"” Dicky's tone was lazily amused. T had impatiently expressed-a wish for a serviceable inexpensive, leather- strapper wrist watch one day when I had forgotten to put on the ver pretty watch I own, and had been without a timepiece when I needed one badly Upon his return ' from | QUIT MEAT WHEN BACK HURTS OR KIDNEYS BOTHER Sayk Uric Acid in meat clogs Kid- ! neys and irvitates Blad- der A glass of Salts is harmless way to flush Kidne If you must have vour meat every day, eat it, but flush your Kkidnevs with salts occasiona ays a noted authority who tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost para- lyzee the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They be- comc sluggish and eakepn, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kid ney region, sharp pains in the bac or sick headache, dizziness, yout | stomach sours, tongue is coated and | when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging vou to seck relief two or threc times | during the night. i To neutralize these irritating acids, to clease the kidneys and flush off the body’s urinons waste get four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoonful in a glass of | water before breakfast for a few days | and vour kidneys will then act fire. | This famous salts is made from the | acid of grapes and lemon juice com- | bined with lithia, and has been | used | for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidne; also to neutralize | the acids in urine, so it no longer ir- ritates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in- jure, and ma a delightful effer- Vescent rater drink. e DONT FUSS WITH MUSTARD PLASTERS! Musterole Works Easier, Quicker and Without the Blister There’s no sense in mixing a mess of mustard, flour and water when you can sily relieve pain, sorepess or stiffness with a little clean, white Musterole. Musterole is made of pure oil of mus- tard and other helpful ingredients, com- bined in the form of the present white ointment. It takes the place of out-of- date mustard plasters, and will not blister. | Musterole usually gives prompt relief from sore throat, bronchitis, tonsilitis, croup, stiff neck, asthma, neuralgia, head- ache, congestion, pleurisy, rheumatism, lumbago, pains aches of the back or joints, sprains, sore muscles, bruises, chil- lains, frosted feet, colds (;f the chest | it often prevents pneumonia). . 30c and 60c jars; hospital size $2.50. i time | couldn’t bear the o A st RO s 1 OF A WIFE GARRISON town the next day he had brought one with him. I had worn it rather steadily, part- because of its convenience, partly because I liked to feel my husband’s gift upon my arm. But never had I guarded it so closely as I had since my return from Lillian Underwood’s aprl my entrance into the secret serv- ice as one of her assistants. There was a reason for this which made my heart throb apprehensively at Dicky's ques- tion. : “Only when [ have my hands in water,” I returned lightly. “And you sleep in it, too, I've noticed,” Dicky sald. “What's . the use of that, when you can’t see the unless you use a flashlight or turn on the electric light?" “I keep a flashlight under my pil- low, you X%xnow,” I exclaimed ner- vously—how T wished Dicky would talk of anything e ! “And T like to have it on my arm,” I finished, lame- 1y You're a funny little thing. Dicky looked at me speculatively. “Just like a kid in some things. Who would ever have thought you'd care for anything like this so much? But Tl tell you what T'll do. Tl ex- change it for one with a luminous dial. Then you can tell what time it is no matter how dark the room."” “But I don’t want any other kind, Dicky,” 1 said faintly, trving to gather my wits together to combat this unexpected danger to one of Lillian’s | cherished plans. ‘What nonsense!"” Dicky, imperious, masterful, crossed over to me, put out his hand to examine the watch. “It shouldn’t be damaged at all, you've had it so short a time. Just let me take it down today, and T'll bring you the other one tonight.” “Can’t You Guess?” Tt was a very real terror now that confronted me. There was no time for half-measures. T despised myself for the subterfuge I was about to use, but there was no help for it. 1 reached up my arms, deftly avoid- ing Dicky’s grasp at the watch, and put them tightly around his neck. “Dicky, dear,” I said softly, “can’t you guess why I don’t want the watch changed?” His face softened as he bent it to mine and kissed me. “Suppose you tell me,” he half whispered. Dicky is the most suscept- ible person to coaxing tenderness I've ever known. 1 have often wished I could be the cuddly, petting kind of wife his temperament demands. “Because you put it on my wrist vourself that day, don't you remem- ber? And you hadn’'t brought me a gift in a long time before. It was a sort of red-letter day for me. I couldn’t bear the thought of any other watch, even another you vourself would get me.” Dicky laughed, but there was infin- ite tenderness in the laughter. There was also surrender. “All right, have it your own way,"” he said. “T'll try not to have my gifts so rare after this. I have been neg- lectful, sweetheart; but it isn't be- cause I don’t love you, you know that, don’t you?” At What Cost? Tie bent back my head, looked into my eyes before he kissed me. And I forced myself to answer his loving look in kind, although it was torture to meet his eyes. Never had T so thoroughly myself as when T loathed told Dicky that I thought of any other watch upon my arm. Even as 1 said the words, the metal of the watch 1 wore seemed to my excited imagination to be branding the false- hood into my shrinking flesh. For the watch upon my arm wasn't the one Dicky had given me at all. [ Avoid Sending Purchases C. 0. D. WEDNES Y PO . T R R T o Sy 5 T - AT i.Ald, - 'C. S. HILLS & HARTFORD.

Both emerged at the same time from the inner office ana walked across the corridor to the Jarge reception room at the southw end of the huilding which was already jammed with people. Standing beside the large table Mavor Mitchel faced his successor and without prelim-} inari or a smile said: 9. Must show no discourtesy or rogance to callers. 10. Must dispense with efficiency experts. 11. Must send to the Mayor names and addresses of alf empis living outside the city. of their citizens. The borough across the bridge was also hopeful of getting the major share of the patronage, and in this it was not disappointed. Join H. McCooey, democratic leader of .

I was wondering how you could best conceal this paper.” She held in her hand the tiny en- velope of thinnest texture which I had last seen when my father’s let- ter to me enclosed it to Lillian. That it was a most important document, he had warned us, in a code known only to four men in the country. And the envelope had been written in invisi- ble ink, disclosed only upon Lillian’s secret test as addressed to Allen Drake, the mysterious man whom T had feared was on the track of my father. “You must never let this leave your person,” she had d. “Not even I can guesd how much depends upon it. And 1 don’'t dare to keep it here for the next few days. Just now it is safer with you.” She had taken frem a box a wrist watch, seemingly the counterpart my own, but with a specially de- gned back, containing much more room than the ordinary watch. This she had pried open, deposited the paper within and closed the watch again carefully. “I'll keep the other one here for she said, dismissing the whole thing abruptly as was her custom. “Remember!

He went into office amid scenes novel in the experience of City hall habitues, for he kept his list of appointments strictly to himself until John Purroy Mitchel, the retiring mayor, had left the bnilding, and then announced | them publicly by having the name of cach appointee loudly paged through the crowded corridors of the build- ing. Bach new official was pushed and jostled through the throng into | the mayor's private office and a few | minutes later came out smiling. | Brooklynites and Tammanyites made up the dense throng that was wedged into the building. The for- mer were far superior in numbers, for s many had come to do honor to one | latter is credited with on appointments went to Charles ¥. Murphy, leader of many hall, had little to grumble about. The offices were about equally divided between Murphy and McCooey. The thirteen ap- pointments and Murphy with twelve. However, there are several more ap- | pointments still to be made. The Tammany and McCooey faith- | ful began to assemble at the City hall early and the lower corridors of the building were jammed when Judge Hylan at 10 minutes before the noon hour drove up in a limousine. With him were Mrs. Hylan, their daughter, Miss Virginia Hylan; Mrs. Theodore Eppiz and Mrs. Catherine Menham. There was a crowd on the City hall steps and thev cheered as the former Brooklyn jurist and his amily entered the building, the new mayor pausing only long enough to have his picture taken. Mavor Mitchel had already arrived. A few of his friends in the corridor gave him A cheer as he hurried office. Accompanied by John F. Sinnott, his confidential attendant and now his executive secretary, Mr. Hylan went at once into Mayor Mitchel's private office.
