A Waif Ii Born.
NINETTE was born in cheap
lodgings 'on. a dull road in the
worst part of Balham. - ,
The road ended in a cul-de-sac,
and tfie cheap lodgings, which were
at the back of the house, overlooked
a yard belonging to a veterinary sur
geon, where dogs howled and barked
all day and jnost of the night, mak
ing sleep impossible to anybody hut
a woman as ill as was Ninette's poor
little mother.
She was so ill that nothing, not
even Ninette's piteous wailing, could
waken, her from the- stupor into
which she had fallen, so ill that when
the landlady, who meant well, but
whose heart had grown hard from
too much work and too little joyous
ness, came and bent over her and said
sharply: "Goodness! rouse yourself,
my gin, you can t die here! she did
not even trouble to raise her eyelids.

But that the woman was dead
there was no denying, and that she

equal certainty, and late that night
she was carried away from the house
in a cheap coffin, and the world
knew' her no more.
But the baby wailed, and wailed.
and wailed.
It lay on an improvised bed in a
corner of the landlady's kitchen, and
gave her no peace.
Someone had suggested sending it
to the workhouse, but some far away
memory of her youth had stirred in
the hardened heart of the landlady
and she said brusquely:

Public Is Amazed at
Continued Enormous
Demand for' Tanlac
People. All Over America
Waift to Know What Is
Behind the Phenomenal
Success of This Prepa
ration That Makes It
the World's Greatest
Tonic.
Day after day the question is being
asked all over the United States and
Canada: What is the reasons for
the phenomenal success of Tanlac?
Why do we hear so much about it?
and, Vhy do Tanlac sales keep in
creasing every year, when other
medicines seem to have a-short-lived
popularity and are then forgotten?
The answer is simple enough. The
test of time has proven to people all
over the American continent that
Tanlac always produces most grati
fying results and that the remarka
ble relief it brings seems to be more
permanent than ever before believed
possible.
Tens of thousands of persons,
everywhere, who took it when it was
first introduced six years ago, report
that they are still enjoying excellent
health, and millions of American
homes are now using Tanlac as the
family medicine after first trying it
out thoroughly and proclaim it the
World's Greatest Tonic.
Thousands of men and women of
all ages and in all walks of life af
flicted with stomach, liver and kid
ney disorders, some of them of long
standing, as well as thousands of
weak, thin, nervous men and women
apparently on the verge of collapse,
have testified publicly that they have
been fully restored to their normal
health, strength and weight by its
use.
Still others, who seemed fairly
well, yet who suffered with mdijjes
tkm, headaches, shortness of breath,
dizzy spells, soar, gassy stomach,
coated tongne, foulness of breath,
constipation, bad complexion, loss of
to get on her nervet, and aha at on
the verge of wrapping it in a shawl
and taking it off lo tha workhoutt
herself, when someone creaked down
the stain and knocked at the kitchen
door.
The landlady iM: "Oh, come in,"
exasperatedly, and her frowning face
did not clear at all when the door
opened and a tall, thin young man of
uncertain age, with mournful eyes
and a pale face, entered.
He shut the door behind Mm and
hesitated a moment before he said
nervously:
The baby cries a good deal, Mrs
Purton. . ,
Mrs. Purton frowned more heavily.
"Have you only just discovered
that. Mr. Wheeler J' she asked with
sarcasm. "Where have yon been,
may I ask, that you haven't beard
her yelling for the past four hours?"
The young man came further into
into the room till he stood beside the
improvised cradle where Ninette lay
Even then she was a pretty baby,
with quantities of soft dark hair, a
rosebud of a mouth and perfect little
dimpled hands that were waving
wildly in the air.
The young man put forward a can
tious finger and Ninette's diminutive
list closed about it
"I shall have to take her to the
workhouse after all. Mrs. : Furton
went on curtly. "Not that I've any
opinion of the workhouse, poor mite,
but what can I do? I slave from
morning till night as it is and the
Lord knows that I can only just keep

should be more considerate bring

lamas, as aren't wanted, and not so
much as leaving a penny piece to

with such things, that I haven't"
The young man cleared his throat
twice, nervously; then he turned
round and looked full at Mrs. Purton.
"If you it's possible to find some
one who will will look after her till
till she's able to rough it a bit," he
said jerkily, "I shall be pleased to
delighted to pay."
His pale face was red enough bv
the time he had finished speaking and
his mourntul eyes were fierce as they
dared Mrs. Purton to scoff at him.
But after the first amazed stare,
the landlady burst into tears.
"I'm sure I never wished to send
the pretty dear to the workhouse,"
she sobbed noisly. "It went to my
heart to think of it, that it did; but
what can I do? I'm that poor me-

and then, when she was getting big
enough to look around and under
stand to throw her back on charity."
"I have said I will pay," said the
young man again quietly. "So if
you'll make arrangements "
He paused for a moment, looking
lown at Ninette who had momentar
ily stopped screaming and lay blink
ing up at bim. ,
Mrs. Purton came and stood be
side the improvised cradle.
"Of course, someone may come
along and claim her," she said. "The
police took all particulars." .

CHAPTER II,
Adopted By Josh Wheeler.
But the weeks went by, and the
months, and nobody seemed anxious
to own Ninette, and the grass grew
rank and uncared for over a name
less grave in Balham churchyard,

appetite, sleeplessness at night and
terribly dejected, depressed feelings,
state that they have been entirely re
lieved of these distressing symptoms
and restored to health and happiness
by taking Tanlac.
Tanlac has never been advertised
as a cure-all or that it would perforr.
unheard-of wonders. The adverti?
ing has been clean, straightforwai
and conservative. Actual facts ar
figures have been stated and statt
in a true, businesslike way that hz
commanded the confidence of all i
the conservative claims set forth.
The enormous demand for Tan la
is due to merit alone, for no amoun;
of advertising would continue to sell
any article that does not possess real
merit Unless full value underlays
the article advertised, the advertising
will ultimately fall of its own weight
"Your can fool some of the people
some of the time, but you can't fool
all of the people all of the time."
Tanlac has been well advertised, it
is true, but such a large and rapidly
growing demand couhd not be
brought about by advertising-alone.
It is what the people themselves say
that counts. One bottle of Tanlac
is sold in a neighborhood through
advertising, but ten more are sold in
that same community as a result of
the sale of that first bottle, and that
is why Tanlac has succeeded. Peo
ple are always willing to talk about
their ailments, but they are more
than glad to tell others of the med
icine that helped them. It is some
thing they could not keep to them
selves if they tried, for the impulse
to sympathize with your fellow man
and want to help him is one of the
strongest, as well as one of the big
gest, things in human nature. -
That is the reason why the people
of every section of the United States
and Canada have become to speak
of Tanlac as the World's Greatest
Tonic And that is the reason why
the demand for this remarkable
medicine has grown to snch propor
tions .that it is almost impossible to
keep dealers supplied.
Tanlac is sold in Omaha by the
Sherman & McCor.nell Drag - Co.
and by leading druggists everywhere.

and slang, both of which she u.cj
with fluency which would have made
her mother turn in her uncared-for
grave could she have beard.
She was five years old then, and
had gone back to live under Mrs.
Purton's roof not becaute Mrs,
Furton was particularly anxious tJ
have ber, but because the weekly
payments which John Wheeler still
faithfully made to her, came in use-
lui.
Wheeler was the only soul in the
world for whom Ninette cared in the
smallest degree, and she adored him.
She seemed to know instinctively
that she owed what little happinct
she knew to him, and as soon as
her chubby legs were capable ot
carrying her unassisted up the stairs
to his room, she climbed it dozens of
limes a day.
Wheeler was a journalist, one of
the struggling kind, who would al
ways be struggling, but he was a
plodder, and could always rely upon
knocking up sufficient money dur
ing a week to pay for his own
modest needs, and those of Ninette.
It was he who when she was old
enough taught her her alphabet and
her first nursery rhyme, the latter
dug from some forgotten store cup
board of his memory.
"There was an old woman who lived
in a shoe,
She had so many children she did
not know what to do."
They made a quaint picture, the
thin, mournful-eyed man, sitting
there in the shabby room, lit by a
solitary lamp, with the child on his
knee.
Her thick, dark hair always was
untidy and hung in tangles about
her face, and her clothes always were
torn. .
Mrs. Purton did her best, but she
was not getting any younger, and she
had really outgrown her natural
sympathy and understanding of any
thing so. young and unru.y as
Ninette.
Ninette broke into the middle of
the recital to say:
"Like aunty, eh?" She always
called Mrs. Purton auntie.
John Wheeler checked a smile.
''Not in the least like auntie," he
said severely. "She doesn't live in
a shoe, and she hasn't got any chil
dren."
"Got rut. Gosh!" Ninette insisted.
She could never say "Josh."
Gosh" being the nearest she could
get to it
You spoil that child. Air.
Wheeler," Mrs. Purton said some
what severely. "What's going to
become of her I should like to
know? Why, you're making a lady
of her!"
She spoke as if it were a crime to
be a lady.
"Her mother was a lady " young
Wheeler said.
i Mrs. Purton tossed her head.
"And a lot of good it did her!" she
scoffed.
There seemed, however, no imme
diate danger of Ninette emulating
her mother's undoubted refinement,
for, in spite of Wheeler's attempts to
check her, she still swore terribly
whenever she lost her temper, and
frequently . came in from the street
with a black eye or a cut lip, which
she had received in a stand-up fight
with a boy twice her size. ' :
"Shell improve when she goes to
school," John Wheeler told himself,
but he was wrong.
The owner of the first school he
sent her to, a prim maiden lady, gave
up the task of educating her as hope
less at the end of the first fortnight.
'She terrorizes every girl in the
school 1" so the prim lady told John
Wheeler tremblingly. "I must really
ask you to remove her."
"If you loved me, Ninette." John
said -to the girl that night, "you
would try to be good."
Ninette burst into tears.
' "I do lo?e you, I do!" she declared
passionately. "But oh. all the girls
there were such fools!"
But she'took Wheeler's reproaches
to heart, and tried hard to be good
and interested at the new school he
found for her.
She was 12 then, long-legged and
IIOITTHVESTERM B
Cawly, but with a promie of great
beauty, which Mrs. I'urtan deplored
"The very plit of her mother. sh
i! And her mother was go-xl-look-ing
enough, jf you put it that way.
And much good her looks brought
her, lying there in a nameless crave
and nobody to shed a tear!"
But Wtneler,was proud of Ni
nette's beauty. In hi quiet way he
had great plans (or her future. He
pictured her grown up and nuking a
great marriage, lie never lost hopu
that some day he would be able to
find out who her mother really wat,
and if there were any relatives still
living, ...
Out of his modctt inrome he saved
tlowly for Ninette, He was a curi
ously friendless man, too shy to go
about among people, too unambitious
to wish to do" more than just pay bis
way in the world, with a little to
spare for the future of this sirl who
had been thrown across his path so
romantically.
What are you going to do with
me when I leave school, Oosru ?i
nette asked b'm one day, when h:
had supped upstairs while Mrs. Pur
ton was out of the way.
In her odd time Nnette was sup
posed to help Mrs. Purton, hut she
haled housework and shirked it
whenever she culd.
"I loathe ' kitchens and greasy
dishes! she told Wheeler, with a
fhiver. "I'd rather go out and sweep
a crossing!"
And it was apropos of that remark
that she suddenly asked what he pro
posed to do with her when she grew
up.
CHAPTER III
The Beginning of Trouble.
Josh peered at her over his glasses
and shook his head.
"Auntie Purton says I ought to be
taught to earn my own living," Ni
nette informed him. 'She thinks if
I went into Bird's, the drapers, it
would be nice."
'' Wheeler made a little grimace.
He knew Bird's, the drapers, a small
dark shop that smelled of American
cloth and bales of unbleachetl calico,
and he could - not imagine Ninette
standing behind its counter measur
ing out yards of ribbon.
"There's plenty of time," he said.
"How old are you?"
"Fourteen. " Lots of girls have left
school long before they are 14," said
Ninette hopefully;"
' "That's because their people can't
afford to keep them on, perhaps," he
answered. ' -
She looked at him with her dark
head on one side.
"Can you ' aford it, then?" she
asked.
"Yes," said. Josh firmly. -'
Ninette got up and threw her arms
round his neck. , , .
: "You're the- loveliest man in the
world," she said. 's '
Wheeler -blushed. '
He loved Ninette's affection,
