Danny promised to explain matters more fully (o the befuddled professor on their way to the pool room.

he piowed all over in anticipation of such wealth casily acquired from the pool room men: He thought this about the cleversst scheme he had eéver Beard of and so expressed himself with much show of enthusiasm.

Herr Oberman saw that the place was fre quented by a much smaller though a more select crowd of patrons than the ordinary. pool room. Danny whigpered to him that Military Man was the horse in the fifth race, but that the odds were only even money. He tendered a hundred dollar bill to .&8 prospercusiooking person to bet on the horse in the fifth race at Los Angeles. B The operator called off the deseription of the running of the race from start to finish, and Military Man was not heard from until the stretch was réached; then he was making one of his famous home-stretch runs, and as was expected by Danny and the professor, Military Man was announced as the winner. e s That night Danny Roberts reported still further progress to Doc Floyd and Jack Cleland. He had partéd with Herr Oberman with the understanding that they were to meet at the lunch hour on the morrow and pick out a race that gave promise of paying big odds. for the winner. Accordingly the appointment was kept and the fourth race on the Los Angeles track was selected as the one giving greatest promises to the conspirators. . : - L i : Danny was waiting outside the iittle saloon on the side street, over which was the fake pool room fitted out by

He devoted the last 30 years of his life to the patriotic task of popularizing the idea of that sea power which he had seen grow from insignificant proportions to a strength which has done so much to stimulate the shipbuilding of other nations. He was a prolific writ er, and his aunthorship extended over a long period. Even at the time of the Battle of Jasmund he attracted attention by a work on the ' Frussian navy, its present and its future.

Alone with Jesus. 2 With Jesus! What a refuge! He knows. He will not misunderstand. He will be pitiful and merciful, for he remembers that we are dust. His presence is light, as when the night is gone and we let in the sweet and gentle morning. There is no otherwhere like this, and as one might turn aside where the springs are full and the flowers are in bloom and the birds are singing sweetly, and. there is a peace above expression and a fragrance that touches the soul, so here when the day is done there wait the sweet repose and blessing. It is a time when patience comes back and sympathy, broad as humanity, comes with it. Illfeeling fiies out into the night, and the dove-like presence that hovered above the Nazarerne fills all the hour with an ineffable love. With' Jesus! There is no other tryst that will stir the best that is in 'us like that! The night shall be as the morning. The grave becomes the portal of the Saviour's happy home and the grief of the rent heart is turned to the sweetness of the holiest hope. We are very near to heaven and the coming glory whem we are alote with

“COFFEE DOESN'T HURT ME” . Tales That Are Told, “I was one of the kind who wouldn't believe that coffee was hurting me,” ' says.a N. Y. woman. “You just couldn’t . convince me its use was connected | with the heart and stomach trouble I : suffered from most of the time. ““My trouble finally got so bad I . 'bad to live on milk and toast almost 1 entirely for three or four years. Still ' I loved the coffee and wouldn't believe ! it eould do such damage. ;- “What 1 needed was to quit coffee | and take nourishment in such form as ' my stomach could digest. : ! *“I had read much about Postuom, : but never thought it weuld fit my case . until one day I decided to quit coffee { and give it a trial and make sure about i it. So, I got a package and carefully | followed the directions. i “Soon I began to get bettér and was . able to ‘eat carefully selected foods i without the aid of pepsin or other di- | gestants and it was not long before I : was really a new woman physically. | “Now I am healthy and sound, can “eat anything and everything that ' somes along and I know this wonderi ful change is all due to my having | quit coffee and got the nourishment I | needed through this delicious Postum. | *“My wonder is why evervone don't i give up the old coffee and the troubles | that go with it and build themselves up as 1 have done, with Postum.” ~ Easy tc prove by 10 days’ trial of Postum in place of coffee.
