One Among Tbem Wh KnoWs What J
In Rlsnt and Inslut I'pon It.
"It is," said a flat dweller, "a bad thing
to have everybody ia the house a kicker.
That only mixes everything all up and
gets the janitor confused and makes ev
erything uncomfortable all around. But
it isr a grand thing to have among the
tenants one good stout kicker who knows
what is right and who insists on having
it done.
"I don't refer here to the growler or
fault finder, but to the straightout kicker
who knows his rights and dares to main
tain them. He is a blessing to the whole
building. I have lived in flats where
such a tenant was regarded lightly by
feebler minded tenants, but my experi
ence is that most people come to regard
him as a common benefactor, and they
leave to him the correction of the evils
that affect the tenants in common.
"Thus, if the dumbwaiter is not kept
clean or somebody puts hot ashes on it.
the kicker can be trusted to kick and in
sist on having those evils corrected. If
the halls are dirty or insufficiently lighted
or not lighted early enough, the kicker
in due time attends to that, and the im
provement that he brings about is obvi
ously not for his own benefit alone, but
for that of the whole kouse. He will in
due time kick, and kick hard, against the
noisy tenant if nobody else likes to com
plain. He in the cold spells insists on
more steam and gets it. His manage
ment of the steam question, by the way.
may not suit everybody. He may want
it turned on earlier than other people in
the fall and want it turned off earlier in
the spring, but you will do well to leave
it to him all the same.
"In fact, in all things not immediately
pertaining to your own aparpnent the
safe and wise thing is to leave them all
to the kicker that is, of course, if there
is in the house a kicker of this kind, not
a mere complainer or growler or kicker
in the narrow sense, but one of the stal
wart, downright sort, who knows what's
rio-ht ond insists on havine thines so. It
makes it easier for you and easier for
him. And thus the stalwart kicker be
comes by a sort of simple, natural proc
ess the representative of all the tenants,
and his presence in the house is a com
mon good." New York Sun.

rose to be the commander of a band of
his own. An arrow pierced one or nis

text derived from my own experience.
You wouldn t think to look at me now
that I had ever been a tippler, but I have
been, and it was the incident that turned
my appetite away from the seductive
bowl tbjrt I should work up as the strong
oolnt of my lecture.
"I was quite a young fellow then, and
I was living in a boarding house in
Twentv-third street. This house was a
lanre one, and four of the boarders in it
T have special cause for remembering.
These four were a man named Donley,
who occupied a room ou the fourth fkvor;
a Miss Chapman and her maid, Elise,
who had a suit on the third floor, and a
cnunsr dentist named Maverick, who had
rooms directly beneath Miss Chapman's.
Although she - lived in the house six
months, the only thine any of us knew
about Miss Chapman was that she had
macniheent diamonds.

when the door finally yielded to my pa

his entering the house. He pushed in
close behind me and went directly up
the stairs. As for me, the effort of un
locking the door had been too much for
me, and I sat down on a chair in the
hall to regain my equilibrium. In the
few minutes I rested there I must have
dozed, for the next thing of which I was
conscious was a succession of blood

Health and Beauty
For generation womca have been
tiaght that beauty is only skin deep
but, like many proverbs, that will not stand.
Beauty is blood deep. There can be no
beauty without health. Our grandmothers
lived closer to nature than we do, and they
were so sheltered by their home life that
health and beauty were theirs naturally.
Skin foods, freckle lotions and face bleaches
were unknown commodities. But there ha
been a great change in the life of women
ince then. With broader education and
larger opportunities, she has developed
mentally at the expense of her health. Nora
the quiet duties of home she ha gone forth
until now we find her In many avocations of
life, which prove too great a tax on her
vitality. How sad it is to see the cheek
robbed of its color and the eye of it Rre.
These symptoms nearly always shew de
rangements in the delicate feminine organ
ism. They don't call for bleaches or paint
or powders, but for a remedy that will make
the afflicted organ strong and well. Wine
of Cardul is just such a remedy. Women
broken In health and spirit have been made
rt-lhv and hiDDV bv this Wine. No
should give up to the "blue- until this reliable remedy ha been tried. A baa
proven a blessing to other women and will not disappoint you. it brings that
buoyancy of spirit, elasticity of step and lightness of heart which is the mm
ttone of beauty. A healthy woman t always beautiful.

"In the meantime other inmates of the
heuse were out. Donley, on the fourth
floor, happened to have in his trunk an
old armv revolver of 48 caliber and a foot
and a half long. Donley was a light
sleeper, and with the first scream he was
out of bed and ransacking his trunk for
the revolver. He finally found it and
started down stairs. The screams issued
from Miss Chapman's apartment, and
he headed for the door of her sitting
room.. That entrance was closed, but
the bedroom door stood ajar, ana ne
rushed in. Miss Chapman was stretch
ed out on the floor in a faint, while her
maid was huddled in a corner shrieking
like a mad woman. The carpet was
strewn with diamonds which Donley
trod upon in his frantic search for the
rtlstivrher of his peace. Being unable to
gain either from Miss Chapman or her
maid an explanation of what had oc
curred, he hurried down stairs. On the
second landing he met Maverick. The
dentist was as pale as a ghost, and he
clutched Donley's shooting arm and held
it tight. He said nothing, but with a

the lace curtains. In one of the beams of
light I stood, motionless with liquor and
terror. For an instant Donley and Mav
erick gazed upon me.
" 'Trapped,' said Maverick. Then he
released Donley's arm. and Donley raised
the army revolver. He was about to fire
when he remembered that as a man and
