GLAD SHE T0J| nd , s A0V|G[ MRS. MESS1CK HAS NEW STEEN (JTH LIFE AND ENERGY SINCE TAKING TANLAC — 'c ,Mff .

- ■ iZJtMTJS+H I juat cannot say enough in praise of Tanlac for the way is has given me new life, strength and energy/’ was the statement made a few days ago by Mrs. George Messick of Dallas ('rty, 111., when she caled at Henry’s Drug Store in Burlington, Iowa. M When I began taking Tanlac I had practically lost my appetite and I suffered so bad from stomach trouble that the little I did eat disagreed with me,” continued Mrs Mlessick. “I was tossing weight constantly and I was so run down genenaly that is .looked like I had lost all the strenght and ambition I had ever had,”. “I starte^ taking Tanlac on the advice of a friend and now after fin tshing four bottles lam feeling Just Ilk* a new woman,I have a fine npoc.

tite and can cat anything I want with. I out suffering any bad effects at all. My nerves don’t give me anymore trouble and I can sleep sound all mght long. I have gained eight pounds and I just feel so fine and strong that I know I am going to enjoy the Christ, tnas holidays more than I hav e in

years.

‘‘My husban^ has just bought three bottles of Tanlac and has started tak. ing it and says he wants an appetite like mine so that he can eat as much as I do and not have to suffer for it I am certainly grateful to Tanlac and without al doubt, I consides jj the medicine ever made.” TANLAC is sold in Greeneastle h y R, P.

No. David. I'm going to give you n watch.” “Why: you gave me one once.” “I did, on the anniversary of our sliver wedding, and you let It drop on the floor and put it ont of commission." “No use burdening a man with jewelry who Is too busy with farming to pny attention to fal-lms!" pronounced

David.

"Well, a watch Is something that every man should carry. "I declare! It makes a fellow feel sort of dressed up to carry u watch, eh. Martha? And you're a dear, wholesouled woman to think that much of a hard-headed, clumsy old fellow like

myself!"

David delivered a resounding smack squarely on Martha’s lips, and she fluttered and flushed like some schoolgirl. She had to scold mildly and instruct In detail to pet the watch placed in the right pocket and the chain bar 'u the correct button-hole. Martha smiled an extra welcome when, on the stroke of six, David came Into the house from the field, rather boyishly compared his watch with the kitchen clock, and announced: “You've Lad a good time-keeper made of the old wreck of a watch, Martha. It's right to the n inute.” Arthur Moore called tic t evening. He was keeping company with the eldest daughter, Hazel, and v n a general favorite with the fattilj. The smaller children had eons'certide fun repeatedly asking father »ltit time It was, while Hazel declared the watch tmist he fast when her father observed that it was ten o'cl ct . which was the usual hour of depa.litre of

her lover.

It was two days later w V.e t David walked over to Brownsville >>n some business. The distance was only five miles, and lie did not care a-.out sparing a horse from harvest work. It was at Brownsville that young Moore lived with h's stepfather. Hug'll <Irlscon Those two had not been very congenial, and Arthur had told Hazel that the sooner they were married, the better pleased ho would he, as iJrlscotr. hud grown into a gruff, unsociable eon, ptffUnn 1* seemed that the hitter was a seend husiiuoo X:?" 11 '* , " 0 "“- r '

It was to revert to Arthur.

It w;s about three miles from Brownsville that David pauseil on tl.v path liningjjic river, to gaze in astonishment at Two persons conversing animatedly under some trees, line was a handsome young woman David had never seen before. The other was Ar-

thur Moore.

The womnn seemed under n strain of Intense •motion. Her gestures were Animated and her familiar mniit.i r with Arthur aroused a deep suspicion in David’s mind. As she clung pleadingly to h's arni David's face darkened. Why was this prospective son-in-law mooting a woman clondestlnely? She acted tis thotteh -In was pleading with Arthur as only a woman stirred by love or some kindred emotion "os

l-'nr over half an hour David watched the pair. He resolved to seek tin explanation of the apparently no n ant love. Finally the twain parted. Tlie womnn vwnt uwaj weeping.

"What does this mean, your meeting a woman secretly?” "If I tell you in confidence will you regard If as n pledged secret?" In-

quired Arthur.

’’Yes.”

“Very well; I came to meet that woman, the deserted wife of a close friend, to see if I cannot tiring about a reconciliation," "Oh ! by the way, what is the time?" half Jocularly Inquired Arthur ns he turned w here their paths parted. "Ilnlf-pnst four," reported David. "Coining over tonight?” "Oh, surely!” Arthur Moore did not go to the Woolson home that night. Before dusk n telephone message announced to the startled David that Arthur had been arrested, charged with the murder of his stepfather at three o’clock that afternoon—the motive the isissesslon of his mother's estate. At the hour stated a servant lind heard a shot. She rushed to the living room of the house, to find Hugh Grtscom lying dead on the floor, shot through thee heart.

i Last NigLi’s Dreams —What They Mean

REMARKABLE FORM OF MANIA;

Women Evidently Thoroughly Believed Tlu-y Had Communion With Spirits of Evil.

DID YOU DREAM OF THE DEAD? r'v BEAMS of the dead are exceedL/ (ugly common ami are generally very vivid; which Is ascribed by Ellis to the fact that hi such dreams two opposing groups of memories contend In one of which our relatives or friends are alive and In the other dead; and the effort of the dream consciousness to adjust these two groups causes an intensity In the dream emotion experienced. The conflict of these opposing forces Is the reason that frequently In our dreams of the dead we are at first perplexed to find our dear ones with us and say to ourselves: "But he (or she) Is dead." But the "stream of Images which represents them ns alive conies from an older and richer source. Is the more powerful,” so thut it overcomes the other and the dream consciousness seeks to adjust the difference by some such thought tis that the person dreamed of is not really dead but was only reported to have died. Sometimes the older emotional stream is so much the stronger that we do not experience this perplexity. In nil cases where we see our dead In dreams as alive our dream consciousness accepts It as a fact that they are alive. To the mystics !• dream that we see the dead alive is accounted a very favornble omen, especially If they speak to us. If they look reproachfully at us, or demand of us an accounting of some of our acts. It Is u sign that we had better linsten to correct onr lives and take greater heed to our behavior. In this connection the words of Doctor Radcllffc, the eminent English Investigator. are Interesting. He says: “You are more or less at liberty to believe that the dead and living may exist together In a world of spirit in which the so-called living are less living than Hie so-called dead; and that, in fact, the dead may command, as they do In dreams.” For a long time materialistic writers, Herbert Spencer among the number, have attributed the belief of primitive man and savages in a spirit world to dreams of the dead. Before 181)5 no attempt was made at a scientific analysis of dreams of this I type hut they are now attracting much attention. (Copyright.t

In these days, when the civilized world la being stirred up by the wave ,,| occultism, spiritism nnd the drtimnd fid - psychic phenomena, it will he interesting to read of the cases of two women—Margaret and Phllllppa Flower—who were burnt for the alleged crime of witchcraft at Lincoln, England, on March 11. 1018. With their mother, they had been confidential servants of the earl nnd countess of Rutland, and, heeoinihg dissatisfied with their employers they were led Into the practice of hidden arts in order to obtain revenge. According to their own confession they had entered Into communion with familiar spirits by which they were assisted In their wicked designs. The mother's familiar spirit was in the form of n cut. which she called Rutterkin. These women used to get hair of a member of the family and burn it. It may be remarked that Mils same practice Is iudulged In by the old southern negroes In our own country. They would steal one of the earl’s gloves and plunge It Into bulling water, or rub It on Rutterkin, In order to effect bodily harm to Its owner. They would also use frightful imprecations of wrath and malice toward the object of their hatred. I'pon the earl and members of his family they worked I heir stalls, and his son died and others became very III. On being apprehended the mother denied her guilt, but the daughters confessed and described visions of devils. There were three other women Implicated in tlie affair, and all of them made confessions to the same purpose—-that they summoned spirits in the form of cats, dogs, moles and other anlmula.

Retaining the vigor and strength of a young mun, the old sea-dog has Mils to say: "You ask for my rules of living? 1 never have worried. I have faith In mankind. I flee from fanatics.
