CALDWELL WAS RIGHT § | The basis of treating sickness has not changed since Dr. Caldwell left Medical | College in 1875, nor since he placed on the market the laxative prescription he | had used in his practice. He treated constipation, biliousness, headaches, mental depression, indigestion, sour stomach and other indispositions entirely by means of simple vegetable laxatives, herbs and roots. These are still the basis of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, a combination of senna and | other mild herbs, with pepsin. | The simpler the remedy for constipa- | tion, the safer for the child and for you. And as you can get results in a mild and safe way by using Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, why take chances with strong drugs? A bottle will last several months, and all can use it. It is pleasant to the taste, gentle in action, and free from narcotics. Elderly people find it ideal. All drug stores have the generous bottles, or write “Syrup Pepsin,” Dept.

December came and the long snows slowly tightened their grip on forest and muskeg. December, with its late and bitter dawns, breaking across the east, while the spruce snapped with the frost and the riven ice of the lakes boomed its muilled salute to the com- ing day. And now that Flash had become harness wise and amenable to the laws of trace and trail, Brock sometimes hitched him as rear dog in the team and, with Yellow-Eye in the lead and Kona between them, drove them over his line of traps while Gaspard used Slit-Ear. For the raw Flash needed the training with the team, Already he had reached the height | and bulk of the doughty king-dog of the Hungry House huskies, and Brock | instinctively shivered at the thought of | what a battle between the two great | beasts would mean.

Shortly, a hunched figure stole swiftly from the | tree. Within three yards of the body in the snow the stalker stopped ab- ruptly, to finger the action of his gun as he peered sharply at his vie: tim. Satisfied, he moved forward, and with a grunt kicked the body on the snow with the bow of his shoe. At the movement, sinewy fingers clampe? like a vise on the shoe, jerk- ing it forward. The knees of the man pulled off balance, were struck by a lunging body, and the Indian toppled with a shriek of terror, as the cat- like Gaspard fell on him. | Then, an arm lifted and fell, lifted and fell. The stillness of the dusk- | filled spruce was startled by a stifled cry—a gasp. Again the arm rose and fell. Silence returned to the gloom of the forest. Gaspard Lecroix rose from the body | of the Indian, sinewy fingers still gripping his knife, to listen. Then he turned to the man who had fired on him from ambush, The Indian was dead. “You shoot me from de bush, eh?” the infuriated Lecroix muttered, as | he cleaned the knife-blade with snow | and picked up his gun and mittens. | “1 teach you man-killers some trick | before de snow melt.” Then, as he stood for an instant, | been in ill health. | do little, so he turned to the “pow- i sulted in the murder. | Blymyer testified, that Rehmeyer had { hexed him and that the spell could be | broken if he would get the book, “The | { Long Lost in Wy = “YRS She Told Him That Rehmeyer Had Helped Him. his act of violence than an untutored child, his attorney in his closing plea | fought hard for an acquittal on the | grounds of insanity. i Blymyer’s own story of his life was | | one of the most dramatic ever heard in a court.
