Sell, Buy. Rent or Exchange FORCEPS By HAROLD CARTER. Harry Keene had gone to Freeport to open his dentist's office because Freeport was a growing town and of- tred the best opportunities for advancement. For the first couple of THE Colorado Is Your Vaca-tion Ground Supreme It's the Switzerland of America. Its hills are as green as emerald.

Its skies as blue as the sea. Think of ranching, riding and climbing all within hailing distance of the greatest mountains on earth. Think of the rousing- good appetite leaping to enjoy food fit for a king. All of this glorious rebuilding of body and mind are yours at the cost of a few weeks and a small sum of money. xaonins ne sat in nis omce and watched his capital slowly melting away.

Then one or two patients drifted in and, being satisfied, recommended others. In the third month he paid his ex-. penses. He boarded at Mrs. Smith's because he could not afford to set up housekeeping.

As a bachelor, he let his fancy roam sometimes, but he had never yet seen the girl who looked like the of the future. At twenty-eren he had the distinction of never having been engaged. There had been Unio one or two little episodes, of course, but nothing of a serious nature. Then, one day, he saw Miss Helen Davis crossing the street, and experienced a mental and cardial shock which left him prostrated. She was the prettiest girl imaginable.

She was all that he had ever pictured to himself -as the ideal of womanhood. He learned her name within an hour after Jracnnc appraising glance that two young people of Opposite sexes' exchange when each finds the other attractive.

It was now a case of squaring his accounts, and getting out of town before the blow fell.

He was too young to be able to face the ridicule that would be his. He took apart his drill, and had Just begun to dismantle all his apparatus when a ring came to the door. Two or three dollars would mean a good deal to Harry Just then. Harry waited he waited until Miss Davis entered again. "Well, I have come back you, she said petulantly, "because it is a choice between you and Mr.

Simmons, and I suppose you are not likely to make the same error again. Why what have you done with your office?" "I was Just packing up," he answered. "Packing up? Why?" "Do you really wish me to see your tooth?" inquired Harry. "I made a terrible mistake. I shall do my best to atone for it financially, when I am able.

But meanwhile I suppose I may as well extract that." "Yes," she said, watching him put the chair together in a curious hesitating way. However, she did not hesi tate to sit down. Harry felt his hand as steady as a rock. "I can save that tooth, anyway," he said. "I didn't think it would be possible, but it is much better than yesterday.

Wait a few moments." Hastily he put his drill together. And then he did the best operation that he had ever done in his life. His fingers seemed guided by a cold automatism. "I didn't hurt you?" he asked. "No," said the girl.

"You'll have to come back tomorrow. I suppose I shall have to wait till tomorrow. It is the least I can do." "Why, were you leaving town?" The girl's eyes widened. "You were leaving town because of me?" He nodded in shame and misery. "Yes, I was going to run away like a coward," he answered.

"You see, I have ruined myself." "But why?" "Because a blunder like that is inexcusable." "But surely one patient doeEn't matter." She looked at him with a new understanding. "You mean you thought you thought I would talk about it?" "I understood your father The girl laid her hand decisively on his arm. "Mr. Keene, you took me too seriously," she said. "It was a bad mistake, but you do me an Injustice when you think I am going to ruin a man for a thing like that.

I didn't tell my father, and I shall tell nobody. So put your things together again and don't be foolish!" Harry, overwhelmed by the sudden change In his prospects, found himself stammering many foolish reasons for the embarrassment that had caused his blunder, until the girl was suffused blushes. "I think, Mr. Keene, the trouble is you're too impetuous," she said, in pretty confusion. But on the next day she was willing to listen again, and the result was a warm friendship which culminated, six months later, in a mistress in the new home of one of Freeport's citizens.

And in his little old-fashioned office, Doctor Simmons smiled synical-ly to himself. "Ah, well! I guess I'll have to make the best of it," he said. "The chap has come to stay." (Copyright. 1916. by W.

G. Chapman.) Mushroom Poisoning. Every spring there are accounts of fatal mushroom poisoning printed in the dally papers. These are invariably caused by the victim mistaking the poisonous varieties for the edible sorts. The United States department of agriculture, Washington, D.

has issued a bulletin giving complete illustrated instructions, designed to enable anyone to distinguish the dif ference between the varieties. This bulletin may be obtained by writing to the secretary of agriculture, or your own congressman. Recipes are also given for cooking mushrooms. The danger of fatal consequences is so great that nobody should take any chances In the matter, when the writing of a postal card will bring the information needed to enable one to distinguish the edible from the poisonous. That Cold of Yours.

Colds are now known to be due to a germ. When we get a cold it means that the cold microbes have gotten Into our nose and throat and have found a suitable place in which to grow and multiply in the mucus which is given by these tissues. When our body is in prime physical condition this mucous covering of the nasal membranes does not afford the germs a suitable food and harbor for development' In other words, the normally resist ant membranes of the nose and throat have the power to destroy these and other kinds of germs, before they ac- quire a tissues. foothold within the deeper Priselltals Prayer. A little girl named Priscilla has a iray of making up her own prayers to the Lord.

One night she said (and her mother heard her saying it) "My dear Lord, please make all my kind friends happy and healthy, and may they always be cicely and neatly dressed." How It Was. "What's this, daughter? Yon let Mr. Flubdub, whom you barely know, kiss you. "Now, mother, let's get this thing Ut him kiss I merely let him try.

He did not, but on the text day he passed her again, and knew that she- recognized him. On "I'm Sorry," He Gasped Feebly. several occasions thereafter the young people met. And they passed that was all. Harry was beginning to grow desperate.

It must have been three weeks after the first meeting that he was amazed to find the girl waiting for him when he entered his office. "0 Mr. Keene," she exclaimed, "I am so dreadfully from toothache. I heard of you as a very skill fur here she smiled at him "and painless dentist, and I thought you could pull this tooth for me without hurting very much." A couple of minutes later she was seated in his chair, looking up at him "'wide eyes expressive of fear and apprehension. Harry's hand shook as he took the forceps in it.

A quick investigation had showed him that the tooth must come out, The gum was inflamed, and there was danger of an ulcerated Jaw. And yet. in spite of his desire to alleviate pain, the young man could hardly bring him- self to that act of sacrilege. He nerved himself with a strong effort, clasped the points of the forceps about the tooth, and pulled. A jerk, a wrench, and all was over.

He was holding a glass of water to her lips. And then came the discovery. It came as a new spasm of pain crossed the girl's face. He saw the look of anger In her eyes. A glance convicted Harry, Keene In his agitation had pulled the wrong tooth! She took the mirror from his helpless hand and saw that the aching one was still there.

It was the tooth next to it that he had drawn. She sprang to her feet. "I'm sorry," he gasped feebly. "Va am she retorted. I shall tell my father about this and you'll hear from him." She was gone, leaving him stunned and horriScd.

He knew that the story would be. over town that afternoon. He tmld lose his patients, of course. He would have to leave Freeport. Sim- mnns the rival, old-fashioned practl- tioner, whom he was would Jeer at him when they met.

And the girl she would go to Slm-r'ons. But that was nothing.
