Luna never lenrned to bowl, nnd the round, hard, Inedible thing was a curi osity to her. When they put nn empty beer barrel In her cnge for her to play with she solved tho mystery by finding that If sho blew Into tho bung hole It made a whistling noise that attrncted tho at tention of Peto nnd sometimes woke him out of nn afternoon nap, but this hard, round polished ball was no good us far as she could sec.

MOST PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW CAUSE OF THEIR SICKNESS Docs human health depend on ono organ alone? This question Is becom ing widely discussed since L. T. Coop er first ndvnnccd his theory thnt tho Htomnch Is the true sent of life and all health dependent upon 1L Mr. Cooper, who has met with re markable success In tho sale ot his now medicine, believes thnt tho stom ach Is responsible for most sickness, nnd that this organ Is weak in tho present generation. While discussing this theory recently, ho snld: "1 nm asked tlmo nnd ngaln to tell why my medicine has mado such u record wherever I have Introduced it. My nn- Kwer nlwas Is, 'bocauso It restores tho stomach to n normal condition.' No ono will deny that today there aro moro half-sick men nnd women than ever beforo. Nothing critical seems to bo tho matter with them. Thoy nro just half-sick most of tho tlmo. They don't know really what Is the mutter with them. I have talked with thousands during tho past two years, nnd few know indeed whnt their trou ble was. One said nervousness, nnother said kidney trouble, nnother liver com plaint, some constipation, or heart trouble, or lung trouble. Mnny had treated, ns they called It, for most of these diseases at different times. A very common complaint Is 'all run down, or 'tired nil the time,' or 'no nppetlte.' "I know positively that every bit of this chronic ill health Is caused by stomach trouble nnd nothing else. My New Discovery puts tho stomach In sound condition in about six weeks. Mighty few people can bo sick with a Bound digestion. That Is why my medi cine is selling nt such a tremendous rate. I have convinced many thou sands of people that these things are so, and tho number Is growing by leaps and bounds." Among moro recent converts to Mr. Cooper's beliefs Ih Mrs. Lottie L. Miner, living on Rural Routo No. 2, Hcnnlkcr, N. II., who says: "I was In poor health for six years, from stom ach trouble and Indigestion. Quito frequently my stomach was co weak that It would not retain solid food. I had vomiting spells every morning, and was subject to frequent nttacks of diz ziness. Life became such n burden that I often felt It was not worth the living. I tried everything I could hear of, but found nothing that would af ford relief. "For some tlmo I had heen rending of the Cooper remedied, and finally de cided to glvo tho Now Discovery preparation a trial. After taking tho first bottle, I noticed a marked Im provement.
