Tobe was with in the pound, and was crying, too, as only frightened little dogs can cry. Tobe, now. had a perfectly good reason for crying. The men were going to take him out and kill him unless his master came to save him with the $1 pound fee. And the mas ter, who you must have guessed was Aloysius, had no more than fifteen cents. The beginning of it all was several days ago when the official dog catcher, zealous with his new au thority, saw Tobe standing in an al ley. What Tobe was doing in the alley has not been explained. It must have been that he went after a cat, after the manner of all little dogs. Anyhow, the catcher found him and slipped a wire noose over his head. Aloysius searched for several days, and asked everybody about a dog with short brown hair. You know well that a dog with short brown hair is a mongrel cur and not worth anybody’s tears, but you are grown up and hardened. Aloysius, you see, is only 10 years old. Someone suggested the city pound Thither Aloysius went, to run into an even more poignant gr’ef when the obdurate executioner demanded a dol lar or Tobe's life. Hence Aloysius was crying. The dog law seemed a very cruel law Even the executioner, if he had not been a conscientious man. would have heeded the pleading of Aloysius. One man did heed it He was a fat, cheery— faced man. and he gave Aloysius a quarter. The tears stopped. Aloysius be came frankly anti shamelessly a beg gar, and it was a very happy little boy. for all the grime on his face, who finally gave the pound keeper a dollar he had gotten out of the boun ty of passers-by. Both master and dog stopped cry j ing together, and Aloysius kissed Tobe and promised the dog catcher to I keep Tobe close in the yard here- l after. SUICIDES LAID TO HEAT. EVANSVILLE, IND., Sept. 8.—The intense heat was blamed to-day for three suicides and seven attempts during tue last week. 'tree suicii 21 A W eak Heart "An interest! r.g British report suggests that science has prolonged the lives of very young city folks, but not of the middle-aged. A series of tables compiled from reports of the Register-General and covering seventy years shows that for males between five and ten years of age the death rate has declined sixty-four per cent, while for those between forty - ftve and. fifty-five years of age it has declined only three per cent—and for the next decade there is an actual increase of mortality. For both men and women between the ages of forty-five and sixty-five there is no decrease in the death rate. Doctor New- sholme finds that for both men and women in this period of middle life diseases of the heart and blood vessels were registered as the causes of about one- third of the total deaths. “Apparently, then, for those who reach middle life in fairly good physical condition the heart is the chief source of danger. Fortunately, everybody knows that excessive use of intoxicants and tobacco and coffee weaken the heart. "At this season, when New Year'* vows are falling like leaves of autumn, we abstain from urging any body to stop drinking or smoking or overindulgence in coffee. Go ahead—if you think your heart will stand itl” —‘Saturday Evening Post, Jan. 18, 1913. When the Heart Begins to “Act It’s a good move to quit COFFEE And use Up” POSTUM A pure food-drink made of wheat. The change is easy, for Postum tastes much like mild, high-grade Java, but is guaranteed abso lutely pure and free from the coffee drug, caffeine, or any other health-destroying ingredient. This American beverage now eomes in two forms. Regular Postum must be well boiled. Instant. Postum requires No Boiling It is prepared by stirring a spoonful of the sol uble powder in a cup of hot water and adding sugar and cream. Grocers everywhere sell both kinds. ‘‘There’s a Reason” for POSTUM this Jolly Picture in Colors has delighted so many people in so many homes and schools that we think you may wish to own a larges reproduction of the original painting. ; Free this Week in Atlanta T HERE must be something about Miss Emily Chamberlin’s painting that appeals to mothers and teachers, as well as to the chil dren themselves, for again and again it has been clipped from our colored advertise ments and hung in nurseries, bath rooms and school rooms all over the country. Such popularity is very sure proof of the real help that this picture has been to mothers and teachers in their work for “Good Teeth —Good Health.” Common Sense Demand* Clean Teeth These Happy Youngsters The twice-a-day brushing of the teeth is no longer looked upon as a fad or an affectation; it has been accepted as a pleasant and refreshing necessity like washing the hands and face, and as of far greater importance to general health. And with children particularly is this im portant as has been proved again and again by physicians and educators in city after city. For instance tfie New York Times in a recent editorial said: “ Ninety-seven per cent of the public school children have diseased or defect ive mouths,” and Dr. Luther Gulick points out that school children with bad teeth are six months behind those with good teeth. who are getting such solid enjoyment out of their “tooth brush drill” have many a time solved the problem of how to keep children from forgettingthe twice-a-day care of the teeth. This pleasant little reminder, hung where your children will see it in the morning and at bedtime, may serve as the one extra incen tive towards this habit, that counts so much in after life. It is the knowledge of the good that this picture has done that has prompted us to print a limited number of copies in the original colors, on fine paper, so that more people may enjoy it. School Bells are Ringing Once more the school bells are summoning the children to the tasks of school. Once more the teachers will be taking up the good work so splendidly begun in past seasons, of teaching children thattomakethe most of themselveseither in work or play, they must have clean teeth. Isn’t it worth while for you to join this move ment either in your home or, if you are a school teacher, in your class room? Isn't the general health of the children worth every effort on your part to form with them the twice a day habit of dental care. With a visit to the dentist twice a year this will keep the teeth in the sound condition that is necessary to good digestion and good health. Remember that now is the time to save your children all the pain and trouble that is so likely to come from early neglect of the teeth. How to Get the Picture Offer to Mothers day .
