ARKANSAS VALLEY JOURNAL CAPTAIN KNEW HIS VISITOR BACKACHE IS DISCOURAGING AT THE TRAIL'S END By WALTER SCOTT. The Best Beverage under the San' Let Them Wear Them! It is observed that one or two tasteful advocates of embellishment of the male dress are writing to the papers declaring that men should be allowed by custom to wear not only bracelets, but earrings, too, if they desire. Well, who prevents them? They can wear both if they wish. They can also do better and wear nose rings, which would be a more truly American adornment, inherited from the real natives jf this country.

Her captain etood at the gangway receiving his guests, pride and delight in his magnificent vessel fehining in every lineament. Suddenly his gaze concentrated upon an approaching figure. His face grew pale to the lips; he shook in every fiber. Controlling his terror by a mighty effort, he turned hastily to his executive officer. "Clear for action, Mr.

Bloodlet," he cried. "Beat to quarters. Load with grape. Order the marines to concentrate behind me, prepared to repel boarders." "Aye, aye, sir," responded the officer promptly, although thoroughly bewildered. The blood returned to the captain's face and he regained his composure as he remarked how quickly his order were carried out, and how they were prepared to meet their formidable foe successfully.

Then his eyes again sought the object of his fears. He was close aboard. "Hello, cap'n!" he cried, a vacuous smile playing about his weak mouth. "Back!" shouted the captain sternly. "Back, or I'll blow you up!" "Say, cap'n, that's what you seem to be doin'," responded the enemy, giggling.

"Don't you try to set foot on board my ship," continued the captain vehemently. "I'm not going to jeopardize boat, crew and visitors for your pleasure." "Oh, say, cap'n," remonstrated the enemy with another silly grin, "don't you know me?" "You bet I do. You're the idiot that rocks the boat, and you shall not come on board mine."

Philanthropist's Right to Have His Name on List of Those Who Go About Doing Good. At a banquet at San Francisco recently William F. McCombs told of a conversation in a club In which several philanthropic personages were mentioned and lauded to the skies. The conversation had gone to some length, Mr. McCombs said, when a man who was sitting in a corner arose with a merry smile flitting over hie features and broke into the gahfest.

''Your philanthropists are all right," he remarked, "but I think it is only just that my next-door neighbor should be included in the kindly disposed bunch." "We are willing to add him to the list," responded one of the others, "but is he really so generously inclined?" "Well, I should say that he is," was the emphatic declaration of the first. "Dozens of tramps hammer at his back door and I have never known him to send one away empty-handed." "You don't mean It?" returned the second a trifle incredulously. "That's right," rejoined the first; "he always gives them a letter of introduction to me." Not Going to Waste It.

STAMP AFFIXED TO ALL GENUINE PACKETS Plans to Live as Savage. To prove that the people of the twentieth century need not be slaves to civilized convention, Joseph Knowles, a Boston painter of outdoor life, plans to plunge into the wilderness of northern Maine this month without clothing, food, matches, firearms or ammunition. He promises to stay there until October 1, to subsist on fish, game, berries and wild vegetables and to come out fully clothed. He will live 50 or 60 miles away from any settlement, and will accept no help from the outside world. Knowles will make his own fire by friction; will build a log cabin from material he finds in the woods, and will make traps out of what he discovers in the practically unexplored northern part of the Pine Tree state.

Sister and brother, neither of whom has reached the mathematical, age, were playing the other day on the lawn at their home in Twelfth street, sayr the Indianapolis News. The brother had great respect for his sister's knowledge, for she went to school. He looked forward to the day when he should become a pupil and grow "I think," he said, "when June is gone it will be cooler." Then suddenly: "When will June be gone?" The little sister attempted to answer, but, evidently fearing to lose her brother's admiration, she placed her hand on his shoulder, and with a tone of mild surprise she said: "Why, David, you ought to know that." Trail's End saloon careseing his bruised face and cursing Picard.

Miles from the warm fire of the saloon, on the rough trail, a blinding storm was raging. Suddenly out of the entwined snowy haze a dark smudge appeared and grew more sharply outlined, till at last It developed into six dogs and a sledge, beside which strode a man. They topped a rise, and started down an incline. Presently the outfit reached the bottom and the uttered a cry of delight, for before him stretched the broad level of the frozen Mackenzie, swept partially clean of enow by the furious winter winds. The man was Picard, hot on the trail of Black Henri, whom he learned an hour after the fight, had started for Jules' home to abduct the girl.

Picard had the best dog team in the great north, for Don, the leader, was a descendant of a tried race of trail dogs. The team sprang out toward the river, led by Don, but before they reached it Picard saw a dog team far away to the left, also heading for the river. There was no doubt but that it was Black Henri. Picard was sure he could overhaul him now if the ice held. Black Henri, looking back, saw his pursuer for the first time.

He leaned forward, and vainly tried to get more speed out of his tired team. Suddenly his eyes distended with horror, for he saw a deadly danger. Then he smiled, for he saw a chance to cheat again. Crack! went his whip, and the leader leaped out, but seeing the danger at the same instant, turned sharply only to find the stinging lash wrapped around his nose. He shied back and plunged ahead just as Black Henri rolled safely from the sledge.

Now the dog tried to stop, but it was too late, for the rest of the team crowded him into the open water of a submerged ice crevice. Picard, close behind, had been getting ready to grapple with his enemy, and Don, seeing the leading dogs running straight ahead, was misled and ran so close to the open water that he barely had room in which to swing to one side. As he turned Picard's warning: "Don!" rang out, but it was useless, for a red-hot snake coiled across his eyes, and Black Henri's exultant oath roared in his ears. Springing away from the sting of the whip, Don landed fairly into the open water, dragging the rest of the team and the sledge after him. Even before Picard realized the clever trap into which Black Henri had drawn him he was floundering in the water.

Don had his forefeet planted upon firm ice on the other side of the sunken section. The dog knew his master and mates were behind helpless, depending upon his efforts alone to save them. A quick breath, and his strong shoulders shot into the collar with impact that straightened every trace in the line. At last when he wag all but slipping the strain ceased and he moved forward and up. The dog behind him secured a foothold.

One second more, and the anxious man was yanked from the icy clutch of the black water. Picard turned to see what had become of his enemy. Ten rods to the right Black Henri's dog team was just getting out on to firm ice. But Black Henri himself was groveling upon a tottering ice cake ringed round with silent, mysterious water. He shook his horny fist at Picard, and the cake slanted with the motion.

The ragged edge of the ice came down, and the opposite side rose high in the air with a loud swash, then toppled back again just as Black Henri's head came to the surface in the eddy directly beneath the descending chunk. Down came the massive cake with a terrific splash, and the great north was forever rid of a hated pirate and cheat.

Baker, deputy auditor of the state of Ohio, says he can prove it. The honey bees near Fostoria, which is Baker's home town, have contracted the opium habit. Like the Chinese, they get theirs from the poppy.

Baker and many other residents of Fostoria grow, oriental poppies. The bees have found this out, and of late they are leaving acres of clover blossoms to hunt out the popp beds. They work very vigorously for an hour or so and then fall to the ground apparently as stupefied as are opium smokers after "hitting the pipe."

Healthy babies don't cry and the well-nourished baby that is fed on Grape-Nuts is never a crying baby. Many babies who cannot take any other food relish the perfect food, Grape-Nuts, and get well. "My baby was given up by three doctors who said that the' condensed milk on which I had fed her had ruined the child's stomach.

One of the doctors told me that the only thing to do would be to try Grape-Nuts, so I got some and prepared it as follows: 1 soaked 1 tablespoonfuls in one pint of cold water for half an hour, then I strained off the liquid and mixed 12 teaspoonfuls of this strained Grape-Nuts juice with six teaspoonfuls of rich milk, put in a pinch of salt and a little sugar, Warmed it and gave it to baby every two hours. "In this simple, easy way I saved baby's life and have, built her up to a strong, healthy child, rosy and laughing. The food must certainly be perfect to have such a wonderful effect as this. I can truthfully say I think it Is the best food in the world to raise delicate babies on and is also a delicious healthful food for grown-ups as we have discovered in our family." Grape-Nuts is equally valuable to the strong, healthy man or woman. It Btands for the true theory of health.
