FIRST POSE ENDS INDIGESTION,
HEAUTBUUN, Oil OAS ON
STOMACH.
The question as to 1iow long you
are going to continue to suffer Irom
Indigestion, dysponsla or out-or-or
dor stomach is merely a matter of
how soon you begin taking Bloodlno.
If your stomach Is lacking in di
gcstlvo power, why not help tho
stomach to do lt3 work, not with
drastic drugs, but as re-enforcement
of digestive agents, such as are nat
urally nt work In the Btomach.
People with weak stomachs should
tako n little Bloodlno occasionally,
and there will bo no more indiges
tion, no feeling llko a lump of lead
in tho stomach, no heartburn, bout
risings, gas on stomach, or belching
of undigested flood, headaches, diz
ziness or sick stomach: and helsdcs,
what you eat will not ferment and
poison your breath with nauseous
odors. All these symptoms resulting
from a sour, out-of-order stomach
and dyspepsia aro generally relieved
live minutes after taking a littlo
Bloodlue.
Go to your druggist and get a 50-
cent bottle of Bloodlue now and you
will always go to tho table with a
hearty appetite, and what you eat
will taste good, because your stom
ach and Intestines will bo clean and
fresh and you will know there are
not going to be any more bad nights
and miserable days for you. Blood
lue will freshen you and mako you
feel like life Is worth living.
Bloodlue costs but 50 cents a bot

COLOIiEL OF THE
TENTH HUSSARS
Why the Career of a Young
Officer Was Cut Short.
"Father, what's tho mutter? There
In something on your mind."
The daughter of Baron Balleustcln
had just come In from a gallop on
horseback over ditches and hedges and
was bespattered with mud. Hcrcheekn
were Hushed with exercise. A thick
coll of hair had come unloosened and
was resting on her shoulder.
"I havo been nolilled, my dear, that
I must be enrolled In the military serv
ice and go out to light the king's bat
tles. 1 am too old to do such duty,
and we are too poor to provide a nub
stltute. About all we havo left Is our
title of nobility, and as you are all
girls even that will puss from us nt
my death."
"Don't worry, father, dear; we'll find
f-ome way out of tho trouble."
A fow days later a youth, evidently
about olghtecn. sallied forth from the
baron's estato, walked briskly to the
town and presented himself at a re
cruiting station. Ho gave his name as
Caspar, son of Baron llallenstelu of
Ballcnstcln castle. Tho recnilllng of
ficer rose at tho announcement.
"I did not know the baron had a
son," ho said.
"I bare been long nway," replied tho
youth.
Caspar Ballcnstcln was enrolled In
the cavalry and sent to u barracks for
Instruction and drill. A son of tho
house of Ballcnstcln could not be per
mitted to remain In the ranks, and
young Caspar was soon promoted to be
a subaltern officer. Ho was rapidly
advanced, and in tho first fight that
occurred in which he took part most of
tho field officers woro killed, and he
was made major. This gavo him the
command of his regiment while still
n mero boy.
Naturally ono so young in so high a
position excited much attention In the
army. It was especially remarked that
the officer, though brave and dashing,
was ono of those men who from some
congenital cause are effeminate. His
girlish expressions often excited mor
llmont Instead of saying to a brother
officer, "You're a chump!" he would
say, "You ore very' disagreeable!" In
stead of swearing at any bit of ill luck
he would exclaim, "now provoking!"
And, notwithstanding his leadership In
bnttle, in camp ho was considered a
lax disciplinarian. His men came to
consider almost any tale of woe to tho
major quite enough to excuse any neg
lect or Infraction of duty.
Nevertheless tho little major or colo
nelfor be finally gained that rank
was adored by Ills men, who would
follow him right Into tho jaws of death.
True, he was not an adept at tactics,
nor did he havo much head for ma
neuvering, but these ho did not need.
General Sweotzer commanded tho
brigado of which Ballensteln's regi
ment formed a part. Sweetzer was
one moment disgusted with the colonel
of the Tenth hussars and at another
delighted with him. The time came
when he began to glvo orders to his
subaltern gently. Ho excused those
things in which tho colonel was defi
cient. And at last it came to be no
ticed that Instead of sending the Tenth
to do necessary sacrificial work he was
prone to choose some other corps. Bal
lcnstein noticed this and pronounced
it "real mean," of course drawing forth
a burst of laughter that brought a tear
to the boy colonel's eye.
The truth l tho colonel suspected
that Caspar Ballcnstcln was a woman,
no had no doubt that his suspicion
was correct, but ho could neither prove
It to himself nor nny ono elso without
what might outrago a woman's most
sacred feelings, no thought of pri
vately asking tho question of Ballen
stcin, but In caso tho answer were In
tho negative tho act would be au In
BUlt that could only bo wiped out by
blood. He finally determined that he
could only discover If the young odl
cer were a woman by placing him in
a position whero ho would act accord
ing to sex Instinct
Ono day General Sweetzer Invited his
regimental commandors to dlno with
him. His headquarters were at tho
tlmo in a house, and, of courso, tho
dinner was set In tho dining room. All
tho courses had been served, and cof
fee and cigars woro being brought on.
When tho door was opened to admit
tho servant with the coffeo tho gen
eral's striker lot In n tiny animal and
immediately closed tho door.
"A mouse, a mouse!" cried tho gen
eral, rising. None of tho other otlieers
moved except Ballensteln, who Jump
ed upon his chair and from thero on
to the tnble. Then tho general or
dered the mouse driven out, and Colo
nel Ballensteln descended from his
perch.
Nothing was said in tho command
about the Incident, General Sweetzer
having ordered tho secret Kept, but tho
next morning It was announced that
the colonel of tho Tenth hussars
had resigned and his resignation had
boon accepted. Tho colonel was not
seen again in camp. A few hours after
General Sweetzcr's dinner party had
broken up a carrlago drovo to Ballen
steln's tent, and a mullled figure enter
ed and was driven away. This was tho
only circumstance thnt became com
mon talk with those who discussed the
young officer's sudden resignation and
disappearance.
Simultaneously with this ntfatr a
daughter of Baron Ballensteln who
had been absout on a visit returned to
FUN IN "FUTURES."
Fortune Telling For tho Chriitmai
Party.
Anything In tho nature of fortune
tolling is always popular, and, not
withstanding denials, there Is a vein
of superstition in every one's charac
ter. No game is more honrtlly enter
ed into thnn ono denllng ostensibly
with fate or tho future. Be It Intri
cate or simple, It Is fully enjoyed.
In tho game of futures great fun is
mire to ensue, because the futures can
bo previously arranged to suit the con
dlUons of certain people, although gen
erally the ono In ehnrgo of the web of
fate knows ns little of what will bo
revealed as tho individual himself.
From n given center cords of all colors
and conditions, no two alike, extend In
every direction upstairs, downstairs
and almost in my lady's chamber,
ncross each other hero and there, often
being knotted together at these points
of intersection. Each searcher winds
up his cord ns ho proceeds, and many
difficulties in tho way of knots to be
untied and round and round windings
to be unwound he encounters. When
ho finally reaches his future it usually
proves to be a coin, a toy, a book of
nursery tales or some article of abso
lute absurdity. This he takes back to
tho Individual who started him in pur
suit of his fate, who must bo clever
enough to give him quite n little In
formation ns to what will or will not
happen, basing her remarks on the
"future" he found nt the end of the
cord. Ench "future" thus found is to
be considered significant of other
things.
THE FIRST CHRISTMAS TREE.
Custom Originated With Northmen.
Hanging the Stockings,
Across tho English channel, where
tho Gauls and the Franks and the
northmen observed the stern rites of
tho severe religion of n strong hearted
race, trees formed an important part in
tho festal observances of tho feast
days. The pine tree ever in all ages
an object of deserved admiration was
greatly revered by tho northern folk.
At the time of the midwinter celebra
Uon tho northmen hung gifts upon the
tree for their gods. As Is readily seen,
when the early fathers of the church
came to this fierce people with their
message of peace it was easy to change
the idea of gifts proffered to heathen
deities into n custom where offerings
were mode to the Christian God.
Thus from such humble beginnings
began the cherished customs which are
our heritage of today. Gift giving on
the birthday of Christ may be logically
traced to that observance prevalent in
the middle ages of having Christmas
boxes wherein offerings were placed
for the priests. Christmns boxes grad
ually became an institution in Chris
tian families as well.
Hanging up the stockings on Christ
mas eve, as the Institution of good
St. Nicholas, old Santa Claus, Is of
purely Christian origin and started In
Germany many hundred years ago. It
has become one of the most cherished
of the Christmas customs of the civi
lized world. National Monthly.
Tho Blessed Christmas Time.
I walked In tho world today, dear Lord,
Midst worth and wealth and fame.
Clasped hands with power and beauty,
Lord,
With loveliness nnd name.
I walked in tho world today, dear Lord,
Midst perfumes rich and rare.
Earth's choicest exotics poured costly
breath
Upon the heavy air.
I walked In tho world today, my Lord,
Through crowded hall and mart,
Whero fruit or loom and press and brush
Each vlo for glory's part.
I havo coma apart from the world, dear
Lord.
Whero the mlchty rulo and shine,
To find sweet Joy at thy blessed side,
To feast on things divine.
Oh, tho world Is poor! I am rich tonight
As I walk In tho path of tho star's clear
light.
And I need no share In tho great world's
famo.
I am crowned In tho faith of tho 'star
child's narao.

Christmas Trees For Manila From Alps.

pristine freshness and with the fra

them, ns green as when they were cut
In the Alps, nrrlvo in Manila every

By a special scientific process the
trees when they nrrive to be placed on

green and fresh, having been pre

grance by a chemical bath which does
not impair the trees iu any way and
will preserve them for many years.
