"A penny for your thoughts, Wil
bur," spoke pretty Ernn Barton, and
j the somber face of Wilbur Gray, evl
I rienclng n mood of profound abstrac
I tlon. hrlchtened up magically, as It
always did when this charming tfrl
was beside hi in.
"A to I sure of the compensation of
fered ?' challenged the young man
lightly.
"There I" and Erna. pressed en old
battered copper coin Into his hand.
"Now confess, sir I Not only do I re
ward you with the conventional pen
ny, but I present what may be rare
coin."
"So rare and old that Its Inscrip
tion Is fairly undecipherable," replied
Wilbur. "It seems to wear the green
and grime of the centuries."
"I found It among a lot of relics of
the olden, olden time that poor dear
grandfather so cherished." explained
Erna. "lie also left some old pieces
of delftware and ancient firearms.
"I shall keep the coin always, Erna,"
said Wilbur. "I hope It will be s
guardian of good fortune."
"But what about the pay V Inquired
Erna, archly. "I bought your thoughts
what were theyt"
"Well, Erna." answered Wilbur, his
glance softening and replete with
sentiment, "I was thinking how dear
ly I loved you when I came home for
the holiday vacation."
Erna's fair golden head dropped,
but she drew nearer to him on the
porch seat.
"And how much more I love you
now," continued Wilbur seriously.
"And when I come home next summer
I hope I can add to tt all by asking
I you to become my wife."
"I hope so," snld Erna spontaneous
ly, lifting her clear, honest eyes to
meet his own. "but you must not think
of that until your are sure that little
Eva and I will not be a burden to
you. All grandfather has left us Is
this little place, and some money Is
owing on that."
"I hope to be able to clear up every
thing and more," spoke Wilbur confi
dently. "Send your sweet, best wishes
after me when I go back to work In
the city, thnt I may find some way of
earning more money than I do now."
"Be patient, denr," soothed Erna en
couragingly. "Our ship Is sure to
come In some day, and It will be the
more precious for the waiting."
Wilbur was employed In a broker
age office.' Opportunity came to him
through this business connection of
making money, but he had no capital
to Invest. About two weeks after Ms
return to the city a close friend,
Taul Warfield. dropped Into his room
at his boarding house.
"I wish 1 had a thousand dollars,
Wilbur." he said. "I've got a tip that
would make me a fortune In a month."
Wilbur smiled Incredulously. He
had always kept away from tips and
speculative propositions generally,
and, besides, he realized that War
field was a good deal of a dreamer.
"Don't laugh at me. Wilbur." said
Paul. "This Is no wild fantasy, but
a sure thing."
"Some stock on the boom, eh?"
"Nothing of the sort. It's a sure
prospect, with a sound, substantial
basis. It's land land that never de
cays, never burns up. never wears
out. Wall street can't play with It
"Land with a gold mine on It, I sup
pose?" Intimated Wilbur quizzically.
"No. Wilbur. It's an eight-acre strip
and last week on the next forty a
prospector made a strike. He sealed
the well, and is trying to keep his
discovery quiet until he can Interest
some capitalist to buy up all the other
land In the vicinity. The very choic
est Is the piece I have a chance to
buy. My old aunt Is willing to In
vest half of the money required.
Couldn't you raise the other five hun
dred in some way, Wilbur?"
"Oh, yes. sure; certainly 1" derided
Wilbur. "See," and he emptied his
pocket of the few coins It held. "1
might buy a hundredth part of an
acre," and Just then one of the coins
slipped through his careless fingers
and rolled against Paul's foot.
Tiie latter picked It up to restore It
to its owner. Then with a profound
stare and a voluble: "Hello I Where
did you ever get that?" He held close
to the light the copper penny Erna
Barton had given to Wilbur, ne
rubbed It. took out a magnifying glass
and added: "Say, did you know that
you have a treasure?"
"What do you mean?" questioned
Wilbur.
"Why, that this Is a Cirencester
penny of the period of King Stephen,
probably one of the rarest coins In
the world, centuries old. Will you let
me take It to an old collector I
know? ni be back in an hour."
The hour was Just up when Paul,
excited and breathless, returned. "One
of the only two known I" he fairly
shouted. "The other Is In the Brit
ish museum. I hsve an offer of six
hundred dollars."
"Take tt!" cried Wilbur Impulsive
ly, "and use five hundred dollars of It
for your wonderful speculation."
Which turned out Just as Paul had
predicted. There was a later division
of twenty thousand dollars' profits,
and Wilbur Gray went back to his na
tive village to make Erna Barton the
taprjest girl in the world.

SEE ME," HE SAYS

"I don't believe there's any med
icine on earth can equal this Tan
lac," recently declared W. J. Rich
ardson, a well known switchman on
the Rock Island, living at 60 South
Fifteenth street, Kansas City, Mo.
"I've gained thirty-seven pounds
since taking it and I feel stronger
than I have for many years," he con
tinued. "I suffered for a long time
from stomach trouble and Indiges
tion and I tell you, I sure had a time
of it. I didn't have any appetite and
what little I did force myself to eat
would sour and form gas that would
get up around my heart and smother
me so I could hardly get my breath.
I had terrible hearaches and diizy
spells every now and then, and I
had such a pain across the small of
my back that it was all I could do
to get up when I sat down. I Just
couldn't get a good night's rest and
I lost a lot of time from work on
account of the way I felt. Of course
I took a lot of medicine but no mat
ter what it was nothing did me any
good.
"A few weeks ago I decided to try
Tanlac and I hadn't taken one bottle
when I began getting hungry and
then I found what I ate didn't sour
and form gas any more. Now, I'm
eating anything I want and never
suffer from indigestion. I sleep
sound all night long and get up In
the morning feeling like a two year
old and ready to tackle any kind of
work. Yes, sir, I sure do think a
lot of Tanlac. I've recommended it
to several of my friends and when
ever they have 'given it a fair trial,
It's benefited them Just the same as
me. As far as my own case is con
cerned, if anybody doubts what I
say Just tell 'em to come to see me
and-I'll prove what Tanlas has done."
