OLD-TIME COLD t
CURE-DRINK TEA! j
Uet a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as fhe German folks j
call it, "Hamburger Brust Thee," at j
any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful
of the tea, put a cup of boiling water !
upon it, pour through a sieve and i
drink a teacup full at any time. It is
the most effective way to break a
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores, relieving congestion. Also
loosens the bowels, thus breaking a
cold at once.
It is inexpensive and entirely veg

(Continued)
Honest, Mr. Doe, if you turn us up
to Mike "
Doe held up his hand, and Jerry
the-Limp, not quite knowing why,
stopped.
"This is John Doe, Mr. Dowd," he
said into the 'phone. "If you will
remember when I was in your place
not long ago, a man who pretended
to- be a cripple claimed acquaintance
with me, under the name of Bow-
Wow."
The four afternoon callers, huddled
near the doorway in two groups, of
three callers and one caller, heard a
harsh voice crackling and snapping
in the 'phone.
"Yes, they're here," returned Doe,
with a smile. "I merely called you
up, Mr. Dowd, to ask your advice as
to what to do with them."
The answer of Mike Dowd was so
short, so clean-cut, and so vigorous,
that every person in the room could
hear it. •
"Kill "em!"
A lot more came over the wire, not
all the words were distinguishable
and not all were printable, but enough
coijld be gleaned, even by the caller
nearest the door, whose red whiskers
seemed to be curling tighter, to know
that Mike Dowd promised to get Mr.
Doe out of any consequences of his
act if he killed them, or, if he didn't
want to mess his hands With them,
merely to send them down to the
Sink, and Mike would do the job.
"Thank you," returned Mr. Doe. and
hung up the receiver; then he faced
his callers. "Get out."
The tone was not vociferous, it was
not extraordinarily vigorous even, but
there was such calm and firm decision
about it that the callers got out; and,
as they closed the door behind them,
John Doe sunk limply on his desk,
sprawled there, crushed, humiliated,
shamed!
"You'io a fine fathead!" growled
Piggy Marshall, as they jostled out
through the reception-room. He was
already taking off his collar, and tear
ing it in the process.
"Didn't I tell you you didn't know
the gent?" demanded Red Whitey,
who was well in the lead.
The snub-nosed office boy was op
ening the outer door for them.
"For * handful of butts I'd croak
you!" husked Tank Tonkey vindic
tively. as they clustered in front of the
elevator. "You had a line frame-up,
didn't you? Oh, yes! We'd come up
here say, do you know what this
outfit cost me?" and he shook the
collar and the violet blue tie at Jerry
the-Limp. "Nineteen cents! Now
you buy it!"
"Do you suppose I want to play
circus?" snarled Jerry-the-Limp, look
ing at the white circle with aversion.
"Ain't you sport enough to invest that
much in a big gamble like this? Why,
all we had to do——"
"Yes, we did:" Tank Tonkey again.
I He was too heavy to give himself
1 much to wrath, but when he did, it
I was deadly. "All we had to do was
i to smoke your hop, and think this mil
lionaire sport was Bow-Wow, and we
could milk him for the rest of our
lives! Oh, yes, we did!" Tank Ton
keys' rage was rising in proportion to
his weight. "I'll lean on you, you
shrimp!"
"Shut your yawps, you boneheads!"
shrilly yelled Jerry-the-Limp. wheel
ing on his followers with fierce com
mand, but he saw in their cold eyes
that His moral force was shattered
and his leadership gone; and he had
instant proof of it when Red Whitey,
without a word of warning, suddenly
pranced up and kicked him on the
shin.
"Say!" growled Piggy Marshall;
"don't any of these elevators stop on
this floor!"
A messenger boy stepped up to the
row of elevators and pressed a but
ton, and the next car flashed its red
light. It was fairly crowded, and, as
they thronged in, Jerry-the-Limp
found himself forced violently into
the periphery of Tank Tonkey.
"Get out of me!" wheezed Tank, his
voice made shrill by compression.
"Step away or I'll bat you!"
"Paste him one for me, Tank!" re
quested Piggy Marshall.
"I will, so help me, the minute I get
room to swing an arm!" and in Tank's
reddened eyes there came a savage
gleam. "Push back, I tell you!"
"Get off my foot!" Piggy Marshall.
He, too, was losing his temper.
At that moment the elevator stop
ped at the main floor, and Jerrv-the-
I.imp, feeling that the height of his
unpopularity had arrived, popped out
of the door, with a real limp. He
might have gotten away clear, but
the elevator starter, seeing him run,
Slabbed him by the coat. That was
no way to detain Jerry-the-Limp, for
his arms were out of the sleeves in an
.nstant, and, leaving the coat in the
starter's hands, he darted through the
lobby, in his blue shirt sleeves, with
his celluloid dickey sticking straight
out in front of him and his black bow
ilo slipped around under this ear. That
second of delay, however, had been
disastrous, for it enabled Red Whitey
to catch him round the neck, at the
curb, and, in two seconds more, Tank
Tonkey and Piggy Marshall were up
on him!
It took two policemen to drag 1 Jerry
the-Limp from under his cohorts; and
the last that admiring Broadway saw
of General Jerry and his army, they
were whizzing away in a patrol wag
on, still snarling.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
the door, for the young man who
stood there, with a portfolio of
sketches under his arm and a whim
sical grin on his wide lips, was
Tommy Tinkle.
"Any water-color drawing to-day,
madam; any oil portraits to paint;
any white-washing to do?"
"Step in, and I'll look around," in-
I vtted Mrs. Stuart, very glad indeed
that he had come, for smiling; was
rather rare, these days, in the Stuart
apartments.
"Thank you." Tommy hung his
hat on the hall tree in the vestibule,
and lounged into the pink and gray
parlor, and laid his portfolio on the
table, picked him a chair in the bay
window, and reached for his cigaret
case. "A certain beautiful young lady
is not at home, I suppose. Do you
mind if I smoke? Foggy weather
I we're having."
j "Tavy is at her music lesson, and
| you know you may smoke, and I
! think we shall have some rain, and
i won't you sit down." It was good to
1 hear her laugh, although the mirth
j did not extend as far as her patient
j eyes.
1 Tommy drew Mrs. Stuart's chair
i into a more pleasant view for her, and
I waited until she had seated herself,
! and reached for his portfolio.
; "I've been doing some serious por
j trait work," he observed. "How is
! this one?"
Mrs. Stuart gave a little gasp of
j delight.
; "Tavy!" she cried. Tavy it was,
( glossy black hair, oval cheeks, slend
er, graceful neck, and, most mar
; velous of all, the dark gray eyes
had within them a hint of their sus
! ceptibility to change through violet
I to blue! It was a happy Tavy who
| smiled up at Mrs. Stuart from the
i clean white page, but Tommy, with
I that fidelity which sees beneath, had
{caught the trace of inborn wistful
• ness in the eyes.
| "Pretty tine, from memory and
| sketches," bragged Tommy, cocking
j his head on one side to admire his
I own work. "The Hudson River, Mrs.
; Stuart, flows down through the State
of New York in an almost directly
north and south line for the more
important part of its course. On its
, broad bosom floats a wealth of com

I lady whom all must revere and ad

j "Lady Stuart."

, ertheless, for Tommy had limned

, dunng her recent happiness, when
she had redeveloped the mischief
which accounted for some of the imps
m 1 avy s eyes.

on Tommy. "The shores of the manv

"Please don't, Tommy," begged Mrs.
Stuart soberly. "From what you say,

already understand why Billy can

"Probably not." He smiled at her
with engaging frankness. "Billy didn't

times quite long ones, but if they once
have that craving they never are quite
safe; never," and that old bitterness
sprang into her eyes.
'That's just it!" Tommy's voice
was triumphant. "Billy has no crav
ing, and I'll swear to it. Here's what
I propose. You may be making a
serious mistake. If Tavy and Billy
think so much of each other, and
Billy is all right, you'd be very sorry
vou kept them apart. You just let
Billy come up here, now and then,
and watch him. If he makes one
more mistake, just one, turn him out.
I'll help you. So will Billy." Adroit
Tommy. He saw, as she glanced down
again "at the ingratiating picture of
Billy, that there was no wavering in
her, and he knew better than to com
pel a refusal which would be final.
Ho went abruptly to the window.
"What a queer government boat. Did
you ever see one like it, Mrs. Stuart?"
He pointed it out, a long, low craft
with a myriad of angling derricks,
which, at. that distance, looked like
toothpicks. He relieved her of the
sketch, as she stood at the window.
"Will you and Tavy go to the theater
with me some night this week?"
Again she laughed at him. Tommy
Tinkle was an irresistible cure for]
the blues, and her eyes softened as
he stood looking down at her. She
saw through Tommy. She saw mourn
fulness underneath his mockery. It
was a quality she could easily dis
tinguish because she was so thor
oughly acquainted with it.
"You'll have to ask Tavy about
that." Suddenly her eyes narrowed.
"You're not arranging for us to meet
any one?" The shocked look on his
face was enough answer. "Pardon
me, Tommy."
"I'm not damaged in the slightest,"
he lightly assured her. "How soon
will the certain beautiful young lady
be home?"
"She should be here now," and Mrs.
Stuart glanced at the clock.
"Then I'll wait," and Tommy stroll
ed across to the piano. He had a
habit of making himself perfectly at

been known to call merely because j
he liked to sit in a certain chair 1
Have You Ever Prayed for
the End of a Miserable Day?
Perhaps You Have Prayed for the End of a Sleepless
Night? Cadomene Tablets Bring Strength
and Rest!
Physical and Mental Exhaustion comes from starved,
hungry Nerves, resulting from overwork, grief, sick
ness, worry excesses, malnutrition and dissipation.
Cadomene Tablets bring food-energy to the starved,
hungry nerves, thhs restoring the nervous system to a
normal state, thereby overcoming the cause of physical
and mental exhaustion. The power in these tablets pro
duce physical strength, mental activity and consequent
will-power and personal magnetism—the gloom disap
pears and sunshine beams from the countenance.
When a man or woman has symptoms of failing
physical and mental power, weakened vitality and loss
of normal vigor, characterized by dizziness, hideous
dreams, trembling weakness, pains in spine, cold ex
tremities, headache, melancholia, fear without cause,
timidity and an unnatural feeling of discomfort and self
consciousness, when the recreations of life lose their
pleasureableness and everything seems going to the
bow-wows and you feel like a too old, "down and out,"
it's time to start the use of Cadomene Tablets to brace
and build you up and add force and vigor to the bodily
structures.
To the nervous, irritable, half-sick, worried, non
efficient man or woman, Cadomene Tablets bring
strength, poise, comfort, cheer and all the joys of living
in health.

and think. He opened the piano and
ran his fingers over the keys. "I have
decided Tavy and you need some ex
citement. You've been cooped up here
too much since Billy went away. If
you won't let him come back, I'll have
to take you out myself."
He leafed over some music and
pushed it aside, then he struck into
a gay little composition of his own,
a whimsical thing, full of unexpect
ed turns, and ending with a crash
which was humor itself caught into
melody.
"You always seem happy," mused
