PACS NINE

Copyright. 1916, by the McClure "Oh, Dear!" said the Old Gray Hen; "what a life this Is! I don't see anything in this sort of life, and I propose to change It until it is more to my liking and more as the life of such a fine hen as I am ought to be." Old Daddy Gander happened along Just as the Gray Hen finished talking to herself. "What's the matter , this morning?" he asked. "There's matter enough," said Gray Hen. "What have we fowls to live for? I scratch and you waddle and you waddle and I scratch, and what does it all amount to? Something has got to be done, and, if no one else will do it, why I shall. Things are going to be different with me." "I guess lH keep on as I am," said Old Daddy Gander, as he waddled away." ' "Good morning. Gray Hen," said Madam Duck. "What a fine day we are going to have; the water will be nice and warm for my ducklings, and I can give them a good swim in tb.3 pond." "It is neither a good morning, nor is it going to be a fine day, and as for swimming in the pond, if I had to mother a lot of children with as home

ly feet as your brood has I would want

to keep them In the water all the time

so that no one would see them."

"What a mean disposition Gray Hen has," said Madam Duck to the turkey gobbler as she went on her way to the pond. "I tried to be agreeable to her and she Insulted me and spoke so unkindly of my children that I felt

quite like crying." "I almoHt wish that she had been a little more unkind," said the gobbler, "for I have never seen a duck crying and I amagine It might be an almost amusing sight. Perhaps Gray Hen needs some of my good advice, and I will walk over shortly and see her." But the old gobbler was saved his trouble, for in a few minutes he sav Gray Hen coming down the path toward Kim. As she came up to him he said: "What a miserable feeling morning this, Mrs. Hen; my feathers will none .of them lie straight, and every worm that I have tasted for breakfast has been bitter." "You are quite right," said Gray Hen. "It is just like all the mornings recently, uncomfortable and disagreeable and there does not seem to be any promise of anything better." "You are quite right," said the gobbler; "I have always felt," said Gray Hen, "that you, Mr. Gobler, never got half your deserts in this barnyard. If I had any voice In the matter I should

Newepaptr Syndicate, New York. suggest that you be recognized as superior to the rooster. But you see the hens have nothing to say, although some day I feel sure that it will be different" "You are very kind," said the gobbler, "and I feel as you do, while I have no wish to be ruler of the yard, that the hens should have more to say. You should at least have Independence and do as you like." "Oh, I have determined on that already." said Gray Hen, and she told him bow she had decided to lay no more eggs to scratch as little as she had to. "Well," said the gobbler, "I .mu3t be off and see that none of those turkey hens get so far into the wood that they cannot find their way back again. I certainly gave the kind of advice she wanted." he said, when he had got out of her hearing, "and that was easier than getting Into an argument." Old Gray Hen however, was as good as her word. She stopped laying eggs and the amount of gravel that she scratched was scarcely worth mentioning. She stole worms from the young

er chickens who were too polite to punish a hen so old as she was, and. alto

gether she became a general nuisance to all the rest of the barnyard flock. They could not protect themselves, but Farmer Johnson, walking through the yard one day noticed that ,the old Gray Hen's toes had grown to a most unusual length. T guess she doesn't do much scratching," he said as he passed along, "and I suspect she does not lay many eggs. I must ask mother about it when I get back to the house." "No, said Mother Johnson when he asked her, "I haven't found an egg in Gray Hen's nest for a month or more." "She won't pay to winter then," said Farmer Johnson. "We had better eat her." And the following Sunday when Farmer Johnson sat down for dinner they brought a big platter of steaming frlcasse to the table, and that was the end of old Gray Hen.

LIMDURG CONVERTED INTO MILITARY CAMP BY GERMAN OFFICERS

BERLIN, March 17. Tie Belgian province of Llmburg has become a German military centre of the greatest importance. In this most northerly corner of Belgium, adjoining the frontier of Holland, where there is no

Glass of Hot Water Before Breakfast a Splendid Habit

Open sluices of the system each morning and wash away the poisonous, stagnant matter.

Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise; splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, -lame back, can, instead, both look and feel as fresh as a daisy always by washing the poisons and toxins from the body with phosphated hot water each morning. We should drink, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaepoonful of limestone phosphate In it to flush from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the

previous day's Indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans

ing, sweetening and purifying the en

tire alimentary tract before putting

more food into, the stomach.

The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases,

waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast and it is said to be but a little while until cheeks. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will cost very little at the

drug store, but is sufficient to make anyone who is bothered with biliousness, constipation, stomach trouble or

rheumatism a real enthusiast on the subject of Internal sanitation. Try It and you are assured that you will look better and feel better in every way shortly.
