DR. W. B. CALDWELL
AT THE AGE OF 83
While Dr. W. B. Caldwell, of Mon
ticello, 111., a practicing physician for
47 years, knew that constipation was
the curse of advancing age, he did not
believe that a “purge” or “physic”
every little while was necessary.
To him, it seemed cruel that so
many constipated old people had to
be kept constantly “stirred up” and
half sicK by taking cathartic pills, tab
lets, salts, calopiel and nasty oils.
In Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin he
discovered a laxative which helps to
“regulate" the bowels of old folks. Dr.
Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin not only
causes a gentle, easy bowel movement
but each dose helps to strengthen the
bowel muscles, shortly establishing

' THE
EAST AND
THE WEST
By H. M. EGBERT
(Copyright by W. G. Chapman.)
UTT'S never Will Thorpe!”
"That you, Jimmy?”
1 The two men gazed at each
other in half incredulity. Then:
“How you’ve changed, Will 1” ex
claimed the Easterner.
“I guess Tm wearing clothes that I
wouldn’t have cared to be seen in at
Harvard or in Boston,” said Will
Thorpe, smiling at his friend.
“I don’t mean that,” answered Jim
my Tremont. "It’s —it's —well, I don’t
know Just what it is!”
Will Thorpe thought about his
friend’s words that evening when he
was alone in his cabin on the moun
tainside. Had he changed during his
three years in the West, beyond the
mere physical appearance? He was
Inclined to think he had. Certainly
his tastes seemed to have altered in
many ways.
Will Thorpe had been sent West
three years before. He had been an
Idler and extravagant; at last his fa
ther, who had always dealt with the
boy rather harshly, refused to assist
him further unless he entered his iron
foundry and settled down. Angry
words had arisen, and In the end Will
had packed his suitcase and gone
West with a hundred dollars In his
pockets.
His sweetheart, Marlon Vanslttart,
had scolded him for his decision. She
had reminded him, petulantly, that she
could neither marry a poor man nor
wait forever. He had kissed her and
told her that he would return with his
fortune made. And for a few months
she had written. Then her letters be
came shorter and less frequent; finally
they ceased altogether.
It was more than two years since
he had heard from her. And gradual
ly the new life had woven Itself about
him, and he ceased to care.
Then he had received a mysterious,
unsigned message asking him to be at
the railway depot at a certain hour,
to meet the train. And he had gone,
to find Jim Tremont wafting there.
Jim was passing through on his way
to California, Tie told him, and he had
heard he was in that part of the
country. Did Will know that his fa
ther was dead and he was the sole
heir of five million dollars? He had
better write home quickly, because
every one was searching for him, and
he had only heard of his address by
chance.
"I suppose you’ll be back East fn a
week, and holding out at the club,”
said Jimmy casually, as he shook
hands and said good-by.
It was that that made 'Will think
he had really changed. How could he
associate those elusive memories
which he had almost forgotten with
this life that had taken possession of
him?
He thought of Norma Gale, the
daughter of the old homesteader
down the valley. How was he to tell
her? The girl, educated and refined
as were all the people of the district,
was utterly unpresentable in the sort
of society In which he had moved.
She had never worn a gown with a
low neck fn her life. -She would be
helpless among a crowd of people such
as—Marlon Vanslttart!
Yet it never occurred to Will that
he could do anything but go. It had
never entered bls mind that he was
to stay permanently in the West.
A man on horseback was riding up
to his cabin. Wfll watched him as he
approached. Visitors were something
of an event in the settlement, and
Will knew the rider as the telegrapher
in the cluster of houses that had
grown up around the depot and was
called a city.
“Wire for you, Thorpe!” he an
nounced briefly.
Will took the message and opened
it. He stared at it as if he did not
understand. It w-as from Marion. She
had learned his address, she said —
probably every one could discover the
address of a millionaire —and she was
passing through on her way East from
the San Francisco exposition. She
would stay an hour while they changed
engines. Would he meet her?
"Thanks,” said Will to the telegra
pher, and watched him ride down the
hill.
Yes, he was going East, and going
back to Marlbn. For a moment the
old life came rushing over him, with
its memories, Its thousand allure
ments. And the new life meant noth
ing.
He mounted his horse and rode
slowly down the valley. He had no
destination In mind, but suddenly he
realized that he was approaching the
homesteader’s house. And at the door
stood Norma, In her sunbonnet.
She greeted Tilm. “Won’t you come
In and take some tea?” she asked. "I
hear you are going East, Mr. Thorpe.”
He dismounted, and now he saw
that his Tips were trembling. How
had she known he was going East?
Did the news fly as fast in this settle
ment as in the great world? And what
did It matter to her?
"Yes, I am going East. Norma,” he
answered, taking her hands In his.
“I—l congratulate you,” she an
swered quietly. But he saw the tears
in her eyes.
“You have meant so much to me,”
he said Impulsively. “I hate the
thought of going. And yet—it is my
duty, I suppose.”
“Then you must go,” said the girl
softly. She was smiling very oravely
at him. “Won't you come In?"
“No—l can’t now,” he said crudely,
"Norma, I shall —I shall see you again
before I go.”
She nodded, and he knew the mean
ing of her silence. The girl cared for
him, and In her unsophisticated way
was Incapable of concealment. He
saw her walk back quietly into the
cabin.
Marlon’s'train was to arrive the fol
lowing morning. Will rode down to
the depot with a heavy heart. The
old and the new were tugging at it,
and he did not know which pulled him
the harder. There were so many
memories here —yet the thought of
Marion came to him like a flood of
sunlight. How he had loved Marion!
She had tacitly released him by her
silence, and yet doubtless she would
explain that. He would follow her
soon. He saw the old life vividly,
their marriage, the quiet home in Bos
ton. . . .
The train was pulling In. He had
stood on the platform in a sort of
daze.- Now he awakened suddenly,
and he felt his heart beating hard in
anticipation. The men about the plat
form were watching him curiously. He
looked into the carriages of the train
as it came to a halt. He walked its
length. Marlon was not there. Had
she missed her train?
"Still dreaming, Will?” asked a hard
voice oyer his shoulder.
He started round, to see Marion,
with a party of girl friends, dressed in
the height of fashion, looking at him
with a smile.
“Dear me, I must be very hard to
find,” she said. “Well! When are
you coming home?”
The hardness of her tones struck
him like a blow. Surely he had
changed out of all recognition if he
had ever thought Marion’s voice beau
tiful. The girl whom he had loved
to the point of infatuation stood re
vealed to him as an artificial, hard
young woman, without the slightest
charm.
“I think It was very wrong of you
not to write to me for so long.” she"
continued. “But I forgive you, Will.
We can forgive a man with millions
anything, can’t we Dora?”
The girl addressed as Dora mnr
mufred something. The whole party
was taken aback, not to say shocked,
at the sight of this man in the cowboy
clothes. And he was a millionaire!
He was Will Thorpe of Harvard and
Boston I
Perhaps Marlon shrewdly divined
the change that had occurred in him,
for she drew him aside.
“Will, I know I ought to have been
more serious,” she said, “but you
can’t think how startling and ridicu
lous you look, dressed like one of
these natives. Listen. Will, and let
me explain. I have always cared for
you Just as much, but I couldn’t be
engaged to a beggar. You see that
for yourself, don’t you? And every
body understood that your father was
going to cut you out of his will, in
stead of leaving you the sole heir. I
am Just as fond of you, Will.”
Will Thorpe looked'at her with slow
ly rising anger. * She did not realize
what she was saying. Had he ever
been like that? Was that the kind of
man that he had been, that she so con
fidently imagined he was still?
“So when are you coming home,
Will?” she continued. “When are you
coming home to me?” she added
softly.
The engineer blew the whistle. Will
looked her full in the face. “Never!”
he answered roughly.
The party was moving toward the
train. Will saw the look of amazed
Indignation upon Marion's face. He
broke from her. He mounted the
horse that was tethered to a post out
side the depot. The train w-as start
ing. But Will was riding for the
mountain slopes, and his “never” rang
in his ears like the sound of a chanted
chorus.
He flung himself from his horse at
the cabin door which hid at that mo
ment all that life held most precious
for him.
“Norma!” he shouted, hammering
with his knuckles.
He heard her footsteps; he saw her
stand before him; he caught her in
his arms.
"Norma! I have come home—to
you," he cried.
Black Ruler Thought
He Was the Only King
One of the most remarkable things
about Nararakad, a North Australian
black king, who wearaXo clothes, Ilves
In a bark hut, and maintains his high
office as much by his skill as a war
rior and hunter as by possession of
royal blood—ls that, until I told him
otherwise, he believed himself the
only king in the world, says Jack Mc-
Laren in the London Mail.
But in the Gilbert group I came
across a ruler whose kingdom was
the sea. His name was Wosl-Tama,
which means "King of the Sea,” and
he bad nothing to do with matters of
the land. It was he who decided when
the fishing fleets should go forth, and
his subjects paid him tribute of the
pearls and tortoise shell they found.
He was an old man, crippled with
elephantiasis, but hts power was never
disputed. Legend has It that his orig
inal ancestor was born of a mating
of the wind and »ea. He lived in
state, and when his daughter married
the chief of a neighboring Island, the
festivities were of the magnificence of
a small durbar.

that he had squashed.
“In this plot," he said —“and it’s the

remarkable for her look of almost
childish innocence. She looked like a
good little school gfrl. Blackmailers
know that women who look like that
