Granite and Water
A coat made of granite, while per
liaj's uot the most comfortable article
of vveviring apparel—although granite
in tliin sheets is flexible—might be
thought to be storm proof, yet granite
will absorb a considerable amount of
moisture. If a cubic yard of granite
that had been completely dried out
. were immemed in pure water it would,
according to the United States geolog
ical survey, after a short time take up
four gallons of water.

"There are all kinds, ma chore, as
there are all temperament^" said
Madame de la Maine. "At Assump
tion —that is our great feast, Julia— '
the Feast of Mary—it comes in Au
gust—at Assumption, Monsieur de la
Maine came to talk with my grand
mother. He was forty years old. and
bald —Bob and I made fun of his few
hairs, like the children in the Holy
Bible."
Julia put out her hand and took the
hand of Madame de la Maine gently.
She was getting so far from a lore
affair.
"I married Monsieur de la Maine in
six weeks." said Therese.
"Oh." breathed Miss Bedmond, "hor
rible!"
Madame de la Maine pressed Julia's
hand.
"When it was decided between my
grandmother and the comte, I escaped
at night, after they thought I had gone
to bed. and I went down to the lower
terrace whfcre the weeds grew in
plenty, and told Robert. Somehow, I
did not expect him to make fun. al
though we always joked about every
thing until this night. It was after
nine o'clock."
The comtesse swept one hand to
ward the desert. "A moon like this—
only not like this—ma chere. There
was never but that moon to me for
many years.
"I thought at first that Bob would
kill me—he grew so white and terrible.
He seemed suddenly to have aged ten
years 1 will never forget his cry as It
rane out in the nieht 'You will marrv
mat old man when we love eacn oili
er?' I had never known it until then.
"We were only children, but he
grew suddenly old. I knew it then,"
said Madame de la Maine intensely, "1
knew it then."
She waited fbr a long time. Over
the face of the desert there seemed to
be nothing but one veil of light. The
silence grew so intense, so deep; the
Arabs had stopped singing, but the
heart fairly echoed, and Julia grew
meditative—before her eyes the cara
van she waited for seemed to come out
of the moonlit mist, rocking, rocking—
the camels and the huddled figures of
the riders, their shadows cast upon the
sand.
And now Tremont would be forever
changed in her mind. A man who had
suffered from his youth, a warm-heart
ed boy. defrauded of his early love. It
seemed to her that he was a charming
figure to lead Sabron.
"Therese," she murmured, "won't
you tell me?"
"They thought I had gone to bed,"
said the Comtesse de la Maine, "and I
went back to my room by a little stair
case, seldom used, and I found myself
alone, and I knew what life was and
what it meant to be poor."
"But," interrupted Julia, horrified,
' girls are not sold in the twentieth
century."
"They are sometimes in France, my
dear. Robert was only seventeen. His
father laughed at him, threatened to
send him to South America. We were
victims."
"It was the harvest moon," con
tinued Madame de la Maine gently,
"and it shone on us every night until
my wedding day. Then the duke kept
his threat and sent Robert out of
France. He continued his studies in
England and went into the army of
Africa."
There was a silence again.
"I did not see him until last year,"
said Madame de la Maine, "after my
husband died."
CHAPTER XXIV.
The Meeting.
TJnder the sun, under the starry
nights Tremont, with his burden, jour
neyed toward the north. The halts
were distasteful to him, and although
he was forced to rest he would rather
have been cursed with sleeplessness
and have journeyed on and on. He
rode his camel like a Bedouin; he grew
brown like the Bedouins and under the
hot breezes, swaying on his desert
ship, he sank into dreamy, moody and
melancholy reveries, like the wander
ing men of the Sahara, and felt him
self part of the desolation, as they
were!
"What will be, will be!" Hammet
Abou said to him a hundred times, and
Tremont wondered: "Will Charles live
to see Algiers?"
Sabron journeyed in a litter carried
between six mules, and they traveled
slowly, slowly. Tremont rode by the
sick man's side day after day. Not
once did the soldier for any length of
time regain his reason. He would pass
from coma to delirium, and many
times Tremont thought he had ceased
to breathe. Slender, emaciated under
his covers, Sabron lay like the image
of a soldier in wax—a wounded man
carried as a votive offering to the
altars of desert warfare.
At night as he lay in his bed In his
tent, Tremont and Hammet Abou
cooled his temples with water from
the earthen bottles, where the sweet
ooze stood out humid and refreshing
on the damp clay. They gave him acid
and cooling drinks, and now and then
Sabron would smile on Tremont, call
ing him "petit frere," and Tremont
heard the words with moisture in his
eyes, remembering what he had said
to the Marquise d'Escllgnac about be
ing Sabron's brother. Once or twice
the soldier murmured a woman's
name, but Tremont could not catch it,
and once he said to the duke:
"Sing! Sing!"
The Frenchman obeyed docilely.
| oumitiing in an agreeaoie oaryione me
i j snatches of song he could remember,
j "La Fille de Madame Angot," "11 Tro
vatore;" running them into more mod
-1 ern opera, "La Veuve Joyeuse." But
the lines creased in Sabron's forehead
indicated that the singer had not yet
, found the music which haunted the
memory of the sick man.
"Sing!" he would repeat, fixing his
hollow eyes on his companion, and
Tremont complied faithfully. Finally,
his own thoughts going back to early
days, he hummed tunes that he and a
1 certain little girl had sung at their
games in the alleea of an old chateau
i in the valley of the Indre.
"Sonnez les matines
Ding—din—don,"
and other children's melodies,
i In those nights, on that desolate
way, alone, in a traveling tent, at the
1 side of a man he scarcely knew, Rob-
I ert de Tremont learned serious les
i: sons. He had been a soldier himself,
but his life had been an inconsequent
i one. He had lived as he liked, behind
[ him always the bitterness of an early
deception. But he had*been too young
.: to break his heart at seventeen. He
• had lived through much since the day
I his father exiled him to Africa.
Therese had become a dream, a
memory around which he did not al
i 1 ways let his thoughts linger. When
', he had seen her again after her hus
band's death and found her free, he
I was already absorbed in the worldly
, j life of an ambitious young man. He
i had not known how much he loved her
: | until in the Villa des Bougainvilleas
' he had seen and contrasted her with
" | Julia Redmond.
All the charm for him of the past
JI returned, and he realized that, as
money goes, he was poor—she was
' i poorer.
The difficulties of the marriage maae
• him all the more secure In his deter
> mination thai nothing should separate
> him again from this woman.
1 j By Sabron's bed he hummed his
' little insignificant tunes, and his heart
longed for the woman. When once or
■ | twice on the return journey they had
been threatened by the engulfing sand
; storm he had prayed not to die before
'! he could again clasp her in his arms.
' Sweet, tantalizing, exquisite with
the passion of young love, there came
to him the memories of the moonlight
' nights on the terrace of the old cha
teau. He saw her in the pretty girl
- lsh dresses of long ago. the melan
■ choly droop of her quivering mouth,
her bare young arms, and smelled the
■ fragrance of her hair as he kissed
her. So humming his soothing melo
dies to the sick man, with his voice
1 softened by his memories, he soothed
;; Sabron.
Sabron closed his eyes, the creases
In his forehead disappeared as though
I brushed away by a tender hand. Per
' haps the sleep was due to the fact
1 that, unconsciously, Tremont slipped
into humming a tune which Miss Red
mond had sung in the Villa des Bou
-1 gainvilleas, and of whose English
' words De Tremont was quite ignorant.
1 "Will he last until Algiers, Hammet
Abou ?"
"What will be will be, monsieur!"
| Abou replied.
"He must," De Tremont answered
, fiercely. "He shall."
He became serious and meditative
, on those silent days, and his blue
eyes, where the very whites were
burned, began to wear the far-away,
i mysterious look of the traveler across
long distances. During the last sand
t storm he stood, with the camels, round
Sabron's litter, a human shade and
shield, and when the storm ceased he

: Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to Take
Salts and Get Rid of
Uric Acid
i
Rheumatism is no respecter of age,
' sex, color or rank. If not the most
I dangerous of human afflictions it is
I one of the most painful. Those subject
; to rheumatism should eat less meat,
i dress as warmly as possible, avoid any
undue exposure and, above all, drink
' lots of pure water.
j Rheumatism is caused by uric acid
| which generated in the bowels and
i absorbW into .the blood. It is the func
' tion of the kidneys to filter this acid
I from the blood and east it out in the
I urine; the pores of the skin are also
a means of freeing the blood of this
, impurity. In damp and chilly, cold
| weather the skin pores ore dosed thus
forcing the kidneys to do double work,
they become weak and sluggish and fail
to eliminate this uric acid which keeps
accumulating and circulating through
the system, eventually settling in the
joints and muscles causing stiffness,
soreness and pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism get
from any pharmacy about four ounces
of Jad Salts; put a tablespoonful in a
[ glass of water and drink before break
i fast each morning for a week. This
is said to eliminate uric acid by stimu
lating the kidneys to normal action,
thus ridding the blood of these impur
ities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grai*es
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
ami is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant,
effervescent litkia-water drink which
overcomes uric acid an<r is beneficiul to
your kidneys as well.—Adv.

He waved him arm.
"A caravan, monsieur." j
In the distance they saw the tents,
like lotus leaves, scattered on the pink
Bands, and the dark shadows of the
Arabs and the couchant beasts, and
the glow of the encampment fire.
"An encampment, monsieur!"
Tremont sighed. He drew the cur- I

Sabron, who was sleeping. His set

are in sight of human beings!"
But Sabron gave no sign that he
beard or cared.
Throughout the journey across the
desert, Pitchoune had ridden at his
will and according to his taste, some
times journeying for the entire day
perched upon Tremont's camel. He
sat like a little figurehead or a mas
cot, with ears pointed northward and |
his keen nose sniffing the desert air. !
Sometimes he would take the same
position on one of the mules that car
ried Sabron's litter, at his master's
feet. There he would lie hour after
hour, wifti his soft eyes fixed with
understanding sympathy upon Sab

j sane. The glimmer of a smile touched i
! his lips. He said Tremont's name, j
j recognized him. "Are we home?" he
i asked weakly. "Is it France?"

Food Fashions
Fashions in foods change with sea
sons just as styles in clothes Jo and
it is quite as uncomfortable to use too
heavy foods in spring time as to wear
clothing that is too warm.
This month everyone experiences a
natural craving for green vegetables.
Tomatoes, lettuce, green onions, rad
ishes, rhubarb, cucumbers and the rest
of the attractive list whet the jaded
appetite for a keener relish of other
foods.
They do even more than this for they
save doctor's bills by helping Nature in
her scheme of domestic economy.
There is not much food value to suc
culent vegetables for about eighty per
cent, of their bulk consists of water and
pulp: it is their characteristic taste
that makes them so enjoyable.
The point to remember in cooking
them is that the flavor that gives them
character must be preserved. To do
this you must not cook them too long
nor over-season them. It is a common
fault to sec cauliflower, spinach and
similar early vegetables smothered in
thick cream sauces or made very rich
in other ways. There is justification
for the cook who does this, for she has
often been told that succulent vege
tables need to be enriched to be nour
ishing. But they do not need this in
springtime. This month we eat greens
for the sake of the iron they are rich
in, while lettuce, celery, cress and green
onions are sedatives and rest and quiet
our nerves.
Later in the year tomatoes will be
used most iu cooked dishes but now in

A FINE TREATMENT
FOR CATARRH
Easy to Make and Costs Little
If you have catarrh don't be misled
or gulled into believing you can obtain
a cure for vour trouble by breathing a
simple medicated air.
Catarrh is a constitutional disease
and inhalers, sprays and nose douches
merely temporize with the disease aud
seldom, it' ever, bring any lasting bene
fit. To effect a cure use a remedy that
will drive the disease out of your sys
tem. Don't employ a remedy that will
drive the disease down into your lungs
and bronchial tubes. Such methods
often lead to consumption, and fre
quently produce catarrhal deafness and
head noises.
If you have catarrh in any form go
to your druggist and get one ounce of
Parmint (Double Strength), take this
home and add to it >4 pint of hot water
anil 4 ounces of granulated sugar; stir
until dissolved. Take a tablcspoonful
four times a day.
The first dose should begin to relieve
the most miserable headache, dullness,
sneezing, sore throat, running of the
nose, catarrhal discharges, head noises
and other loathsome symptoms that al
ways accompany this disgusting disease.
Loss of smell, defective hearing and
mucus dropping in the back of the
throat are other symptoms that show
the presence of catarrh and which may
be overcome by the use of this simple
treatment. Every person who has ca
tarrh should give this prescription a
| trial. There is nothing better.—Adv.
