Keeps Her Children
In Perfect Health
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
the Family Laxative For
Many Years.
Mrs. Aug. Doellefeld, of Carlyle, 111.,
recently wrote to Dr. Caldwell, at Mon
ticello, 111., that she has used Dr. Cald
well's Syrup of Pepsin in her home for
a number of years, and would not be
without It. as with it she has been able
to keep her four children in perfect
health. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is
a combination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin that acts on the bowels In
an easy, natural way, and regulates
the action of this most important
function. Nearly all the sickness to
which children are subject is traceable
to bowel inaction, and a mild, depend
able laxative, such as Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin, should have a place in
every family medicine chest. It itf
pleasant to the taste and children like
it, and take It readily, while It is
equally effective for adults.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
In drug stores everywhere for fifty
cents a bottle. To avoid imitations
and ineffective substitutes be sure you
get Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. See

Enough Gold in U. S. to
Give Each Person $24.80
New York. Every person in the
United States may contemplate the
pleasant fact that if all the gold with
in the country's boundaries were di
vided equally he would be entitled to
$24.80. Actually it would be some
thing more than this, for the figure Is
based on returns made as of Septem
ber 1, and since then something over
$50,000,000 has been imported. Gold
has poured across the border from
Canada so fast in recent weeks that
a shipment of $20,000,000 this week
had to be divided between the local
assay office and the Philadelphia Mint
in order to give employes of the for
mer institution a chanc(e to catch up
with their work.
While records are not complete to
the final dollar's worth of gold im
ported so far this year, in round num
bers the total has been around $500,-
000,000, and of this amount $294,000,-
000 has been entered since May 10,
either at the local assay offlce or the
Philadelphia Mint.
DON'T LOOK BACK
The hypothetical "if" starts your
mind into supposing, and this is where
your success stalls.
The contingent "If" gets you to feel
ing uncertain; and this unnerves you,
and then you hesitate, halt, and get
stuck.
"If" Is so small a word, and still It
Is the biggest bowlder In the path of
any man's mental make-up.
The moment the little word "if"
comes up you acknowledge weakness,
and a weak man cannot hope to win
to-day in face of strong competition.
Strangle this word "if," then screw
your courage up to the sticking point,
and don't you dare look back.—The Si

Doctor Tells How To Strengthen
Eyesight SO per cent In One
Week's Time In Many Instances
A Free Prescription Yon Can Have
Filled nnd Use at Home
Philadelphia, Pa. Do you wear
glasses? Are you a victim of eye strain
or other eye weaknesses? If so, you
will be glad to know that according to
Dr. Lewis there is real hope for you.
Many whose eyes were failing say they
have had their eyes restored through
the principle of this wonderful free pre
scription. One man says, after trying
it: "I was almost blind; could not see
to read at all. Now I can read every
thing without any glasses and my eyes
do not water any more. At night they
would pain dreadfully; now they feel
line all the time. It was like a miracle
to me." A lady who used it says: "The
atmosphere seemed hazy with or with
out glasses, but after using this pre
scription for fifteen days everything
seems clear. I can even read tine print
without glasses." It is believed that
thousands who wear glasses can now
discard them in a reasonable time ana
multitudes more will be able to
strengthen their eyes so as to be
spared the trouble and expense of ever
getting glasses. Eye troubles of many

Ohioan Says He Stored
Sun's Heat For Winter
Fostoria, Ohio. Albert Barnes,
machinist of this city, to-day an
nounced he had heated his house all
last winter and that washing and
ironing had been done by "bottled
sunshine."
He explains he stored heat from
the sun's' rays by means of a con
trivance which collected the heat,
conveyed it to a barn, which he had
remodeled into a structure not unlike
a fireless cooker.
According to Barnes, the bam Is
filled with blocks of artificial stone,
each carefully packed in pressed
straw. These, he said, held the heat
caught on a large concave surface
bowl shape.
"There's no meter on the sun," says
Mr. Barnes, "and I don't expect to pay
another for heat tho rest of my
life."
TO PREACH. OR NOT TO PREACH!
There is incessant preaching for lib
erty, honesty, politeness, industry, fair
ness, efficiency, economy and temper
ance from practically everybody. The
newspapers, public men, ministers,
fathers, mothers and school teachers
are all lined up on the side of right.
Why are we not all converted?
What is the flaw in the argument that
causes so many of us to reject it? Are
the preachers themselves doubtful of
their doctrine? I constantly preach
the Importance of good habits; yet I
am weak when it conies to practice.
How does it come that I know the im
portance of temperance and am in
temperate? Everyone is trying to save
the people, yet the people are not
saved. Have we no confidence in our
own good advice? E. W. Howe's
Monthly.
descriptions may be wonderfully bene
fited by following the simple rules.
Here Is the prescription: Go to any ac
tive drug store and get a bottle of Bon-
Opto tablets. Drop one Bon-Opto tan
let in a fourth of a glass of water and
allow to dissolve. With this liquid bathe
the eyes two to four times dally. You
should notice your eyes clear up per
ceptibly right from the start and in
flammation will quickly disappear. If
your eyes are bothering you, even a lit
tle, take steps to save them now before
it is too late. Many hopelessly blind
might have been saved if they had car
ed for their eyes in time.

STEALS FIANCEE
OF HIS SON WHO
IS AT BORDER
Father Elopes With Sweetheart
of Lad Who Is in
Guard
'North Weymouth, Mns*., Sept. 29.
Charles H. Gretter, 45 years old,
treasurer of a large Boston baking
company, with a fine residence in
Maiden and a summer home In North
Weymouth, Mass., eloped ten days
ago with the sweetheart of his 19.
year-old son, Leslie, who is now with
the Massachusetts militia at El Paso,
Tex.
The broken-hearted wife of Gret
ter admitted the fact at the Gretter
summer home. She was corroborated
by the father of Mildred Merrill, 22
years old, a stenographer, who sac
rificed her soldier sweetheart and her
home to elope with a man old enough
to be her father.
Crushed by the weight of a double
sorrow—his mother having committed
suicide two weeks ago—Fred H. Mer
rill of Eastman Road, Somervllle,
Mass., quoted from a yellow slip of
paper:
I fought him for six years.
Mildred.
It was a telegram he received from
Worcester after the elopement, in
which his daughter told of her step.
"I want my husband home again
in spite of everything," said Mrs.
Gretter.
i "All I want is my little daughter
back again," said Mr. Merrill.
"I don't mind losing the girl," Is
the young soldier's comment.
Was Gretter's Stenographer
Miss Merrill was employed as a
stenographer for several years In Mr.
Gretter's office, and the two were op
euly fond of each other's society, but
no one outside the family thought
that Mr. Gretter's liking for the girl
was anything more than admiration
of his supposedly prospective daugh
ter-in-law.
The fact that Mr. Gretter frequently
took Miss Merrill riding In his motor
car was known.
"I often objected to Mr. Gretter's
marked attention to Miss Merrill,"
said Mrs. Gretter, "but every time I
reproached him for it he told me I
could get out myself if I didn't like it.
"Several years ago, when we were
camping in Maine, Mr. Gretter enter
tained Miss Merrill for four weeks at
the camp against my wishes.
"Still I will gladly forgive him If he
will give up this girl and return home.
I do not want to see him punished.
Mr. Gretter had many good qualities
which I cannot overlook. He always
provided generously for his family
and was kindness Itself to me when
he was himself.
"When my stepson Leslie, who is
now serving in the national guard at
El Paso, began keeping company
with Miss Merrill, I hoped my hus
band would put aside his mad infatu
ation for the girl for the sake of his
son. He did not do so, however.
Affair With Son a Blind
"I now believe that the affair be
tween Leslie and Mildred was cleverly
designed by Mr. Gretter and herself
to dispel our suspicions."
Mrs. Gretter said that the fact that
her husband disposed of most of his
stocks and other personal property a
few weeks ago convinced her that his
going a week ago was not the result
of a sudden Impulse, but had been
carefully planned.
"I have a little money left," she
said. "It Is not much, but enough to
keep Eunice (her 14-year-old step
daughter) and myself from want."
Eunice Gretter, a High school
sophomore, commented freely on tho 1
elopement. She Is particularly bitter
against Miss Merrill.
Mrs. Gretter thinks the elopers
headed for Canada in Gretter's motor
car. One of the last things he did be
fore dropping out of sight was to pur
chase new tires for the machine, evi
dently In anticipation of a long jour
ney.
Down at El Paso, the young sweet
heart of the girl who eloped shows no
anger or resentment.
"I don't mind the loss of the girl at
all, but I am sorry for my father, and
terribly hurt that he could have done
it," said Leslle Gretter, who is cook in
Company K of the Eighth Massachu
■ setts. He would make no other com
ment.
Soldier Had Girl's Picture
Young Gretter, sunburned, quiet, a
soldierly looking boy, shows in his
face that he has suffered In the mat
ter. He was at work In the company
kitchen when tho reporters found
him. The news was no surprise, for
he had already received telegrams
concerning the matter.
Miss Merrill bade him grood-by when
the regiment left for the border, and
Gretter s mates say he has kept her
picture in his writing case all this
time. They went to High school to
gather.
The type of man Miss Merill Jilted
may be seen from the fact that, when
the company cooking was not wholly
satisfactory, Gretter took on the job,
. a labor, ° u s one, merely
that his mates might get better fare.
He learned to cook while camping in
the Maine woods.

NO RELIEF FROM
INTENSE ITCHING
Tells of "Wonderful Cure" by Roelnol.
Boston, Mass., Aug. 26.—"1 had ec
zema In the worst way for six months.
A small plmplo on my right wrist kept
spreading until it was up to my el
bows. It came out In spots and some
places were like water blisters. The
itching was Intense and I had no re
lief whatever. My fingers were all
covered with cracks and pained me
very badly. My hands and arms were
all scales. The burning was so bad
it felt as If I had been turned to a
blister and the blister rubbed off. I
tried everything I could hear about,
including many prescriptions, but had
no relief. As a last resort I tried Res
inol Soap and Resinol OintmAt. The
itching STOPPED AT ONCE. Before
I had used Resinol Ointment and Rosl
nol Soap three days the redness had
all gone, I could sleep nights—no Itch
ing or burning—and I felt like a new
woman. People who knew me when
I had this trouble were surprised at
the wonderful cure." (Signed) Mrs.

New Commander of
German Armies in East
Prince Leopold of Bavaria, who lias
succeeded Gen. von Hindenburg as
commander of the German armies on
the central eastern battle front. Al
though past seventy years of age, the
Prince is considered one of the ablest
commanders in the German army. He
has a greater physical stamina than
many of his younger subordinates.
He was in command of the troops
which entered Warsaw more than a

$2.50 Month Too Much
For Food For His Wife
Boston, Mass. Mrs. Frances Mar
tel says her husband gave her $2.60
a month for food, but that he sud
denly discontinued this because he de
cided she was getting fat on it.
She also told a JJury in the Suffolk
Superior Court, where he was being
tried for nonsupport, that they had
been married nineteen years, that he
had unreasonably failed to provide for
her and that he was also over jealous
of her.
Mrs. Martel and her husband,
Charles H. Martel, live at 210 Hemen
way street, though she admitted that
she had left this home on several oc
casions, but always, she declared, be
cause of her hueband's condition.
Whenever he received his pay enve
lope, she said, he first visited a bar
room, then, later came home.
Martel tried his own cae and cross
examined his wlfo. He questioned her
closely concerning her belief In for
tune tellers and spiritualistic meet
ings, though she denied she ever
visited either, or believed In them.
He also Informed the Jury that Mrs.
Martel had told him that other wo*
i men had affinities, and she saw no
reason why she should not. He also
said he was willing to give her two
thirds of his earnings. Between June
1 and August XI, he said, he earned
$l2O, out of which he had to pay ex
penses in connection with his busi
ness. He denied all his wife's charges.
OPPORTUNITY
We can all testify to the truth that
opportunity knocks more than once.
Opportunity is often present, but few
men are prepared to receive this great
and welcome guest.
My opinion is that wo expect too
much of opportunity. Most men are
looking for a full-fledged Standard
Oil to call on them, unannounced.
The biggest business in all the world
had its beginning in a very small way.
My measure of the word "opportun
ity" is simple and quite easy to ex
plain and equally easy to understand.
At the rising of every sun we arc
afforded another chance, and out of
these chances we must make our own
opportunity.
Reasonable people are taught, by a
long line of experiences to wait the
development of things worth while.
Rational folks should remember that

"Boy Bandit" With $2,452
Stage Money, Confesses >
Monroe, Wis. Chief of Police W.
O. Blunt had occasion to question a
youngster who had been guilty of a
little indiscretion, and froau his ac
tions knew he was not making a clean
breast of the affair.
"Better tell the straight of it, and
come clean," was the advice of the
officer, but he was not prepared for
the surprise the youngster had in
store for him, when reaclting into his
pocket he pulled out a roll of bills
which would have been more typical
of a Deadfoot sport, declaring:
"There is $2,452 in that roll and I
stole it from Turner opera house."
Chief Blunt counted the money find
ing the amount correct as stated by
the youthful Jimmie Valentine, but
all ideas of his getting his name on
the front page of the metropolitan
dailies faded from his eight when he
discovered the roll was "stage money"
which had been left behind by a com
pany playing here during fair week.
