Cates Drug Co. “1 mean Just what I said — I’m not ready to go to work." There were unlimited complacency and assurance In Hilling's voice us he said It. “Then what—what do you want to do?” “1 want to run around a bit, you know, and see what’s going on In the world.” "See the world! Why, good heavens, from reports I’ve had of your college career there’s nothing left for you to see or do!” “Plenty of time for drudgery and all that sort of thing later, dad. 1 wnut to knock about a bit like the other fel lows 1 know.” “By thunder, you shall do ns you wish! Pack your gewgaws and go—I don’t give a tarnnl rap where—but gol Go and see the world—all of It, every stratum of It I'll pay the freight—ev ery penny. But this Is the condition— you’ve got to stay away five years! You are not to write home, nor shall any one from homo write to you. You will draw upon my New York banker for your needs. I—but that’s all— there Is no need for further discus sion.” Young Hilling stared with mild sur prise at the broad shoulders of his fa ther for a moment; then, the exas perating look of superciliousness re turning, he arose languidly to hts feet "Aw—er—I say, dad, isn’t that—er— Just a trifle strong?" The older man did not look around. “No; not a lilt of It! Scoot!” For a moment the mask of Insolence fell away from the young man's face, and the natural strength of his fen turcs stood out strikingly. “All right sir; you’re onl The five years begin today. Good by. dnd. As he swung jauntily down the street of the prosperous southern town —a to*wn that had seemed a good place In which to live before his eight years of college life—he became suddenly conscious of a feeling of uneasiness as he thought of the gentle mother who but a few hours before had thrown her arms about him in a joyous wel come home. Many months passed be fore a realization filtered through hi brain of how Inconsiderate was he disillusionment. When a couple of hours Inter Hilling boarded the train for the north he ear ried with him the disturbing picture of his mother’s disappointment and solicitude. To him she had ever been the diplomatic buffer between the acer lilty of Ills father anil Ills own self willed follies. Lint he realized tills last —this live years' silent absence—was too much for even her philosophy of Indulgence But. whatever of remorse his pre cipitate departure caused him. It was of short duration He went abroad and for a time reveled in the glitter of the cafes of Paris. He Idled precious hours in Italy He barely escaped a duel In Berlin. Then, after a month of stupid bore dom In Loudon, he hastened back to New York. Thus two years passed. Not once bad he heard from either his father or mother. Not once hud he written home Once or twice Wh submerged manliness threatened to break through the veneer of his pleas ure seeking existence—some eddy of memory which brought a fleeting rec ollection of that last glimpse of his mother—but always would he brush It stubbornly aside and plunge with In creased abandon Into tile whirlpool of folly. Then one evening, after an exeep tionally strenuous day, he urrived at the theater during the third act Just us u prlma donna of worldwide fume was rendering her finest number. Hilling stood at the bead of the aisle for a moment, carelessly sweeping the audience filled theater with Ills glance; then, with u scornful shrug, he turned and strolled down Into the smoking room. The singer finished, and a tremen dous outburst of applause filled the theater and echoed out Into the corri dors. Again and again the singer re sponded to the encores. Curiously, Hilling wandered back Into the foyer and once more took up his position at the back of the theater and watched the audience. Bowing and smiling, the prlma donna was ap proaching the footlights for tier llfth encore. Hilling watched with patient an tlpatliv He fidgeted nervously, tils forehead drawn In a scowl and his ups curled with unbounded sarcasm. Then In notes low and tremulous the singer began the line. "Fur from the old folks at home " At the same mo ment. with the startling suddenness or a crash or thunder, the audience was electrified to hepr a man's voice—dis cordant. raucous, spoiling—Join in the song with the prfrnu donna Then, with a scornful laugh Hilling permitted himself to he led away by a couple of pale faced, agitated ushers Out in the lobby lie Impatiently shook himself free of the ushers and Imperturbably passed out and stepped into his motorcar. As the chauffeur threw on the [tower and ttie machine glided swiftly away Hilling flung back at the undecided group of theater at taches the words ot the song with taunting mockery. When, at d In the morning. Ills valet admit led him to his aimrlincnls Hilling had worked himself Into a rivirr.y lie seemed obsessed with the notion that the valet In some Ingenious way was responsible for the lilileiv:s words of that song and iron led him accordingly. He tossed sleeplessly until daylight, the words ot the song itoundlng ills eardrums unceasingly. Gradually the whole liuu blended Into one word - home. Confound that Infernal, asinine word!" Irascibly he got up and dressed, sent for Ids automobile, dismissed the chauffeur and till that day motored alone over quiet country romls that led through peaceful villages and over pic turesque hills. Cue moment lie would viciously shift the throttle wide open, sending tlio ear hurtling along at a reckless pace; theu, coming a quick change of mood, ho would slow down sharply, lean back against the cushions and gaze thought fully over the peaceful fields ns his mneblne chugged slowly along. All the while "Old Folks at Home” harassed him like an Inexorable thing of chastisement. The sarcasm and mockery were still In his face, hut there was also some thing else creeping In there—lines which bespoke torment and raging con filet. Tbut night as the prlma donna ap peared again In the famous third act scene Hilling, pale and teuse. sat aloao In the deep shadows of a box. With eyes that burned with strange emotion and perfect sobriety he leaned eagerly forward ns If his soul were drinking In the melody through eyes and ears. Again was the singer recalled repeat edly. As she appeared for the fifth en core and the orchestra had started In on a lively prelude to some Scotch air Hilling, his voice strangely hoarse uud shaken, called out, “Suwunee River!" Instantly the call was taken up en thusiastically all over the house. A wave of applause shook tlie theater. With a smile the prlma donna nodded to tlio orchestra leader, and a moment later the rich, clear voice of the singer was glorifying the old folks at home. Hilling was its tense and motionless as a man of stone. Perspiration damp ened his forehead; his dry lips stood apart; wide eyed, he clinched his nulls Into his hands. His very soul seemed a thing detached that floated upward with the melody of the song. With Indescribable pathos and ex pression, her voice low and trembling, the singer paused; then “Far from the old folks at home" floated out and up ward like a benediction. It was grand, dramatic, glorious! Something like a sob surged up Into Hilling's throat. His eyes blurred. The following morning early lie dis charged his valet and chauffeur, sold his machine, resigned from his club, gave up Ills apartments and packed his trunk. Then, his passing as unobtru sive us his advent had been vainglo rious, he dropped completely out ot sight Two years later and four years after the stormy scene with his father Kiel)- aid Hilling again crossed the threshold of that grim gentleman’s office. Inside tfie door he waited respect fully while the stern faced, gray hair ed bend of the great steel works fin ished the signing of certain papers be fore him on Ids flat mahogany desk. Pausing, pen suspended, the elder Hilling glanced up briskly. “Well?" "I wish to speak to yon on behalf of the men, sir.” The other gave a start and leaned forward. "You—why—Richard-why He could say no more. For a time he stared Into the marvelously cluing ed face in silence. Slowly his apprais ing glance traveled downward, taking In every detail of the sou's clothiug and lingering wonderiugly on the big. grimy bands. Again he spoke— hoarsely. “What does the condition of my em ployees matter to you?" “A great deal. I am one of them, and I find they are underpaid." “One of them?" Skepticism and as tonishment gave varying Inflections to bis tone of voice. "One of them? What do you mean by that?" “Just that. For two full years I have worked out there In the shops. I began at the very bottom. I know whereof 1 speak." Again the father surveyed the'son In silence, searching his face long and critically. Slowly u look of conviction crept Into his face, softening It and paving the way for one of great hope and gratification. Then, smiling, ne puffed out his lips tri mild reproof. "Then—er—you did not observe my orders to remain away five years." “1—I did not come to discuss—that.” The father persisted eagerly. "But I want to know; 1 want to know." “I obeyed you for two years, sir. and that was two years too long Yon see, mother and—nod home called me— strongly. Mother uud home aim- work " "And does mother"— “Yes. she Knows-has known all the time." Then firmly, "But t wish to take up this matter of the workmen.' “Yes—yes. to be sure. But first lei; me-did you —have you actually been working out there In the shops as a common laborer for two years?" Silently the son spread out tils black tmert. hardened bands in mute answer For a time fattier and tun looked each Into the other's race Then, tits face Inscrutable, the plder Hilling said; "And—and—you think that reforms are needed-out there?" The answer came forcibly. “Yes. sir, I do." "Then make them-lt’s your Job' now." DIGGING A POST ROLE. He Worked Faithfully and Cheerily, but Lacked One Essential. He was a vigorous worker, and lie was digging a post hole In the hlsl of n river. A post was to lie placed in It | ns part of the extension of a wharf. lie worked hard and got rapidly deeper and deeper lie struck stones, but tie reacluul down and pried them up. lie got thoroughly soaked, but lie grinned cheerfully, lie sang ill his task ami was an In spiration to all the other workmen. Five o'clock came, but he I'ailhl’ully finished his post hole, though it took him ten minutes longer, lie was no time server. Then he climbed, dripping, out on the bank ami walked hotuc, happy In the consciousness of good work accom plished. But he did not put a post Into the post bole, ami when lie came back (lie next morning he found the hole filled again with mud and completely oblit erated. However, he cheerfully went to work again, singing as he labored, and dug the hole once more. And the company paid the bill. Moral.—Cheerfulness Is good, zeal Is better, but a hit of brain is best of all. —Christian Endeavor World. SECRET OF SUCCESS. Be Efficient and Do Things That Other People Do Not Do. A man tins a weary time awaiting to rise in the world by force of sympathy, by getting somebody else to pull him along. You see such people standing around expecting compassion aiul a lift from some who have succeeded. But this Is not the way success Is at tained. That comes by working for It. by being worthy of it. by doing one’s best, if It comes at nil. The world Is full of failures because a man hangs back and depends upon others. Efficiency Is the greatest word In the language. There is no real progress without it. And what does efficiency consist of? Of sobriety, honesty, dili gence, putience, happiness, unselfish ness, good habits and putting In full time. Of course a man can get rich by not caring for these. Ilo can gamble, steal, defraud, pad payrolls ami expense bills, borrow money and never pay. But such riches don’t last. They drop a man pretty hard finally. The only way Is to start out In the world and do one's best without wait ing to see what others do. As Stein- metz, the master electrician, said. "To earn $100.uuo a year do things other people don't do.”—Ohio State Journal. COULD SCARCELY WALK ABOUT knd For Three Summer* Mrs. Vin cent Was Unable to Attend to Any of Her Housework. Pleasant Hill. N. C.—"1 suffered for three summers,” writes Mrs. Walter Vincent, of this town, “and the third and last time, was my worst. I had dreadful nervous headaches and prostration, and was scarcely able to walk about. Could not do any of my housework. I also had dreadful pains in my back and sides and when one of those weak, sinking spells would come on me, 1 would have to give up and lie down, until it wore off. I was certainly in a dreadful state of health, when 1 finally decided to try Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and 1 firmly believe 1 would have died if I hadn't taken it. After I began taking Cardui, I was greatly helped, and all three bottles re lieved me entirely. I {aliened up, and grew so much stronger in three months, I felt like an other person altogether.” Cardui is purely vegetable and gentle- acting. Its ingredients have a mild, tonic effect, on the womanly constitution. Cardui makes for increased strength, improves the appetite, tones up the ner vous system, and helps to make pale, sallow checks, fresh and rosy. Cardui has helped more than a million weak women, during the past 50 years. It will surely do for you, what it has done for them. Try Cardui today.

J-65 Volcanoes and Disease. Many strange and exaggerated ac counts have been given of terrible dis eases in human beings, lower animals and plants as a result of volcanic ac tivity. In a prize essay by Dr. II. .1. Jobnston-Lnvis It Is shown Unit (hens is no direct connection with disease, but that volcanic outbursts may indi rectly cause or increase epidemic dis ease la several ways. The poisonous fumes may have Irritating and de pressing effects Hi the eyes and lliroat. The disturbance of water courses may bring about the Infection of wells and surface supplies with sewage, nial In terference with ventilation of houses may result from the accumulation of ejected materials. The moral depres sion from fear, with hunger from the cutting off of food supplies, may have the effect by lessening the resistance of tile organization to Infection.—Ex change. Keeping His Secret.
