Litngfeldt," we were open only a
short time Sunday, in the morning,
at noon and in the evening, but the
crowds were so large in the evening
that provisions were exhausted and
many customers were turned away
unfed.
"There are now 22 restaurants and
otfes on our fair list, and we expect
more to be added shortly. There
have been no overtures by either
' Side for arbitration. If the unfair
houses wish to arbitrate they will
'have to come to us."

My HEART and
My HUSBAND
Adele Garrison's New Phase of
Revelations
of a Wife
The News Alice Holcombe Brought.
I do not know just how I reached
the front entrance of the, school
house in response to the frantic
summons of the young taxi driver.
I am afraid that I descended in
most undignified fashion, two or
three steps at a time, perhaps even
recalled a pastime of my childhood
and slid down the banisters, secure
in the knowledge that the janitor
was engaged in another part of the
building, and there was no one else
around. There were two thoughts
urging me to such mad haste one
the need for physical aid to Alice
Holcombe, and the other, the ne
cessity for keeping unobserved, if
possible, hep arrival in an uncon
scious condition at the school.
The young driver, a boy whose
weak eyesight had kept him from
the army, and who therefore hid
not the experience in emergencies
which his fellows of the same age
would have possessed, stood look
ing helplessly afr the interior of the
taxi as I flew down the steps. 1
knew that he had been driving but
a short time, had a sudden illumina
tive flash of the risk one would
take being driven by a man with no
more initiative or presence of mind
than he, and pushed him aside tin
crenioniously as 1 reached the dool
of the taxi-cab.
My friend lay in a huddled luap
upon the floor of the car, fortunate
ly a roomy one. A quick survey
told me that she was not dead.' but
that she needed instant attention.
One hand was clenched around a
small vial, and fer an instant my
heart almost stopped beating. Surely
she had not
Then, as I quickly snatched at the
bottle I saw that it contained simply
a powerful restorative.
Into the School.
"She sent me in for that at the
drug Store," the boy was babbling,
"just after she got in the taxi.
'George,' she says, 'J've got such an
awful sick headache, I wish you'd
get me something at the drug store.'
She wrote the name on a little
piece of paper and I took it in. She
was all right when I gave it to her,
and she told me to come here as
quick as I could, and I did, and
when I got here "
''Help ine lift her.' I interrupted
his confidence brusquely.
While he had talked I had been
getting her limp body into a posi
tion where it could easily be lifted
out of the taxi-cab. But the sub
conscious attention I had given his
words made me realize that Alice
must have foreseen her own collapse
must have tried to reach me before
it happened. I feared that there
must have been some serious hap
pening at the coroner's inquest to
cause this death-like swoon.
"Slip your arm under her shoul
dersthe other here that's it. Now
I will take her feet. The door is
open. I left it so when I came
down. We will take her straight to
the kindergarten room on this first
floor, lou know where it is.
-"Sure. I started in school in that
room. Say, is she pretty bad? 7
can go for a doctor quick as a wink."
"1 don't know. I can tell in a
few minutes. And we don't want a
doctor unless we have to have one.
You know she wouldn't like any
body to know of her coming here
in a faint."
"Nobody'll ever know it from
me," he said with boyish earnestness
as we bore Alice Holcombe's slight
figure up the steps and down the
hall to the kindergarten room, the
welcome thought of which with its
small level tables had come to me
opportunely.
She Speaks.
"That's right. I'm sure she can
trust you," I returned. "Now, put
her on this table. Hold her ufitil
I can get mv arms under her shoul
ders. There that's it! Now bring
two or. three more of the tables
here so we can stretch her out on
the flat surface."
He obeyed me quickly, deftly, as
he did every other direction I gave
him in the next few minutes. Evi
dently he was the type of person
always cast for the role of assistant,
never as principal. But 1 could have
had no better helper, and it was not
long before Alice opened her eyes
and was able to swallow the restora
tive which she had brought with her.
She looked from me to the boy
helplessly, with the wondering
glance of those coming out of a
swoon. Then she spoke slowly.
"1 didn't make it after all.
Did anybody see me?"
"Only he and I," I answered
promptly, "and we'll try to get you
upstairs to the office before the
janitor passes through here again.
He's already swept this room, and
we've only to put back the tables as
we found them."
"Benny will do that. Won't
you Benny?" she asked him, with
the attetnion to details to which a
woman in the throes of a strong
emotion will sometimes stop to at
tend. I had hoped she would allow her
attention to be diverted in this very
way, for I did not wish to hear the
news she had to tell ine until the
boy, loyal lad though he appeared
to be, was safely out of the way.
"Oh, sure. Miss Holcombe! You
know I'd do anything for you." j
"I know, Benny." Her slow, sweet ,
smile, her monotonous voice, had j
something tragic hi it. the reason I
for which 1 did not get until after ;
she was safelv ensconced on the

The Colon Is the Home of
Health-Keep It Cl eani
FALL HOUSE CLEANING is at hand. It's a hard
job, at best. But consider what an impossible task it
would be if the house hadn't been jetting its regular
daily cleanine all these months !
Ixmgbefpre this noonecould have lived in it. Theaccumulated
dust and dirt, which is fairly easy to down day by day, would
have so clogged the quarters that they would be uninhabitable.
Your Colon is the house where your health lives. It has
different "rooms" in which your daily physical welfare "lives".
These "rooms" are long and narrow. So they are easily
clogged. And when constipation clogs them, your health has
to get along the best it can in a home that isn't fit to live in, any
more than a house clogged up with dust and dirt is fit for you
and your family to live in.
Nujol is the broom that will keep this "home of lie.ihh" in perfect
order all the time.
Nujol is the only helper that will do this ithout turning things topsy
turvy and upsetting all the "rooms" just as house-cleaning does. '
By daily use of Nujol you can free yourself from all the disease-risk,
discomfort and inefficiency that come from a clopped colon.
Nujol is not a medicine. Not the least particle of it is absorbed into the
system. It is a clear, tasteless, odorless, absolutely II ARMLESS softener
and lubricant. A baby can take it with perfect safety. It doesn't upset
the stomach or ativthinp else. It simply keeps the home of your health
. CLEAN rnd COMFORTABLE.
Get a bottle of Nujol from your druggist to-day, and send for free
booklet "Thirty Feet of Danger."
