Nothing Tastes Good

And eating is simply perfunctory-done because it must be.

This is the common complaint of the dyspeptic.

If eating sparingly, leaving much of the light meal provided, would cure dyspepsla. few wunhl suffer from it long.

The only way to cure dyspepsia, which is difficult digestion, 1s by giving vigor and tone to the stomach and the whole diges- tive system. It is therefore cured post- tively and absolutely by flood's Sarsapa- rilla.

The testimonial of Frank Fay, 100 N. street, South Boston, Mass., voluntarily : ven like thousands of otbers, should lead ty a trial of this peculiar medicine. " My nlece." he writes, " was a great sufferer from dyspepsia for ali years. She tried many medicines In vain, She had no appe- tite and was troubled with sour stomach and headaches. After taking two bottles nt Hood's Sarsaparilla she was well."

CLARENCE'S CHANCE.

LARENCE is all right in some ways, but he's got the political germ. That's what's the matter with (latence. The last time he was in the hospital . hey must have inoculated him with the Dettos thence virus. Now he thinks he's the orig inal font of eloquence and he's shaping up for the campaign. He's got the orulions of Patrick Henry bound in morocco and the eloquence of William J. Bryan bound in calf, and the poems of Edward Atkinson bound in yellow dog.

The Topfloor Debating c'nb gave him the chance of his life the other day. lle'd been spouting around there till most of us were threatened with this fancy new eur disense and we appointed a cominittee to devise ways and means of shoving a stake in Ciar ence's cogs. It was Bill that put up the game. Bil, goes down to Fomteenth street every now and then and pulls a salary out for louking pleasant. Right next to the office where he'd work if his father wa.n'l head of the firm, so that he gets the same salary without the trouble, there's a sorl of one-act assembly room. All kinds of, societies that have got the price to pay in advance go down there and reform things Last week there was a scrap for the room between the Society for the Suppression of Insect Life in Our Midst and the United Greek Peddlers' Five-Dollar-a-Week Police Benefit organization. That's just to show you what kind of helfry bats flit around that locality. When the Insects and the Greeks got through with each other the assembly room was suffering with abrasions and se vere internal injuries. The agent for the joint turned them all out and let his place for three .days to the Society of Silent Thought. Bill Pratt took a look in at their first meeting and came out with a smile or his face like a long drink on a hot day. He saw that outfit was just made to order fot Clarence.

You might think that Bill would put the rest of us on at the start. That isn't Bill Bill has an anise-seed bag smothered to death when it comes to foxiness. This was his game, and he did the Silent Thought acl as if he was a member of the gang. All we had to know was that Clarence had beet invited to deliver an address before the So ciety of Silent Tbought and that three of four of us were to go along to see that he got a fair shake from the referee and no body rubbed oil of mustard on his legs There wasn't much time for preparation, but that didn't change the odds on Clarence We all knew that he had his winter's sup ply of oratory stored away from wind and rain. Knew it? Why we hadn't had a chance to forget it for ten weeks!

"I'll give 'em "The Influence of Monetary Fluctuations on the Rights of the Commor People,' " said Clarence.

Maybe he didn't have the hot debate with the club looking glass that evening The rest of us stood around and gave him ! an occasional hand on his good work, but it was a wild night upon the sea pilot. C.ar- ence is one of those windmill orators. When he gets fairly huzzing the air is fuller of arms and legs than a trussmaker's show window. He took two hours to that re hearsal, and when we dragged him off for fear of laryngitis the mercury was peeling off the back of the looking glass. The next night we boxed him up in a frock coat and escorted him to the Silent Thought meet Ing.

"Now, Clarence, my boy." said Bill Pratt "these people are a little on the freak, bul they're all right at that. Their stunt is to sit very still and think very hard. That's the way they ahsorb ideas. Don't be dis couraged if they don't give you the glad hand. They'll appreciate you, all right." Then he led Clarence in and turned hitr loose on the Silent Thinkers. There wasn't any silence doing around there for the next five minutes. Clarence opened up with a few of his megaphone whoops and then he heenn to do calisthenics. Say, you never saw anybody more pleased than that bunch of queer ones, They were just tickled pink What seemed to suit them best of all was Carence's ground and lofty calisthenic ges tures, He'd wave and waggle and twiddle his fingers, and pretty quick they began Ic get awake and respond, For a man that's always been reasonably sure of getting home hefore wix n. m. That was a shnky expe rienre. We fellowa on the ontsule began to Iwonder what Bill had run us up against It looked like a signat corps doing fancy practice withont their official wigglers. It might have been half an hour, or il might have heen an hour, and Clarence had begun to break into the rights of the peo-

ple line when Bif Pratt said to the rest of

"Here's where we adjourn. I think the society's had enough. Do an exit when J give the signal."

Then he broke loose in a yell that made Clarence sound like a penny whistle and let loose a lot of those big torpedoes, and down the stairs we all went, yelling: "Fire!" "Murder!" and "Police!" Clarence passed us in the stretch, though we'd left him al the post. But it struck us all as very much on the twist that none of the society came along. It didn't seem like it was any occa sion for silent thought. Anyway stuck, and when he found that ont Clarence they had a powerful hunch to go back and have a relapse. We ho low-squared him and took him back to the Topfloor Debating club te talk it over.

Theories were thick and plentiful about the Silent Thinkers, and the general opin ion was that Bill and they had put it all. up. Some way, though. the finish didn't fil with that idea. All the time we were discussing it and Clarence was getting fretty and humid around the collar. Bill did the wise owl and never said a word. Finally Bob Binks said that unless Bill opened up and gave us a full diagram he was go ing back home to have the place raided as a private annex to the House for Associated Maniacs.

"That's all right," said Bill, comfortably. 'Don't worry about their not being sane. When it comes to sanity they've got Clar. ance in a padded cell."

"Didn't you get 'em in the Eden Musee?" one of the fellows asked.

"Now, here, it's this way." Ball said. "Clarence has been having the seven-yes! iteb to hlow himself to some oratory and I promised I'd get him the chance. When I found out about the Society for Silent Thought I knew he couldn't do 'em any harm, and it would be good practice for him."

"What do you mean about not doing them any harm?" said Clarence, doing & Roman candle sputter.

"Wby, they're a club of deaf mutes," said Bill.

Afterward none of us could remember just wbat Clarence snid, but it was oratory all right. Patrick Henry would have thoughs he was a deaf mute himself if he'd gone up against that +piel. When Clarence went away with that proud and haughty look of us we asked Bill what the Silent Thinkers thought they were in for any way. "Oh, that's all right," said lti.].
