Show NEW VOYAGES OF SINBAD. The Island of LHtle Children and the Introduction of Candy to Its People. . Some of the sailors were afraid of Islands after their trouble on the Island of Tickling, but wanted to go tack to Bagdad; but Slnbad the Sailor mad 3 tfcem keep right on. He waa looking for the Island of Diamonds because he had only a houseful of diamonds left at Bagdad, and he wanted more. So they sailed a long time, till one day the lookout sane out? "Land ho!" "Where away?" asked Slnbad th Bailor. "Nor-nor-we- st half west," said th lookout This time It was a little bit of an Island, so little that the lookout could hardly see It But they sailed up to It and found It was big enough to have people upon it ' The trees looked as email as grass, and the houses were like doll houses. A little boat came out from the island 'and the big sailors on the ship looked down into it. The people In it were children. A little boy in uniform stood in the stern of the boat and held the rudder, and other boys pulled the oars. The boy dressed like an officer asked for the captain of the ship, and Sin bad came. "What do you want?" asked the boy. "We want to go ashore," 6ald Slnbad. running, and the carriages with little women ta them were in a jam. Bj and by some of the little people began to be stepped ou by the horses, and then everybody began to quarrel, and push and Bhovc, and the windows of tho stores were broken. Then a squad of baby policemen ran up, with their clubs drawn, and began to push the people back. There was a lot of shouting and crying, and the policeman and the people began to fight. Slnbad the Sailor tried to get out. of the town, but there was such a crowd of babies around him that he could not put his foot on the ground without tepp'.ng on them. So he had to stand it III. And the crowd got bigger and nigger. They all wanted to see the giant Sinbad. Sinbad watched the little people a long time, and then sat down on a house and took out his pipe and lit it. The smoke began to pour out of hU mouth and nostrils. There was great excitement. The people pointed at Sinbad and ran away from him, with great fear on their faces. They thought he was on fire. A great lose was heard up the etreet. and the first thing Sinbad knew the Bremen were all around hlra. The little horpes dashed up with tiny engines, all steamed up, and prettf soon a dozen 6treani3 of water were squirt ing all over Slnbad. They gave him a good wetting, but the stream did not reach his head, and he kept on smok tng as though nothing had happened. The smoke rolled out fearfully, till the town was covered with a cloud The people all began to cry. Then the sound of cannon boomed through the town, coming from the sea 6hore. The children looked at one another and cried harder than ever; They Knew me soldiers must have seen something dreadful out on the water, Sure enough, when they ran to the thore they saw what the trouble was There in a boat was Nebo, the black slave, rowing toward land as fast as he could, paying no attention to the rub ber bullets that kept hitting him. He reached the shore and ran toward Slnbad, making all kinds of motions with his hands. What he meant to say waa (bat the lookout had found another Island, but the people of the Island of Children did not understand him, and thought he was making mo tions to Slnbad to draw his sword aad kill them. So every one of them ran as fast as Ms fat legs would carry him, and hid In the cellar. Sinbad and Nebo ran back to the boat and started for the ship, but the brave baby soldiers In the fort kept popping their rubber bullets at them till they wer out of sight The little people came out of the eel Isrs when ther found Sinbad and the b'ack men w?ro gone away. They of are, said it was a good thing the r, lot of magpies.

"We know candy Is now," ther laid, "and we will make It for id the boy. "Well, you caa't," "This is the Island of Children, and we don't allow big folks on it" This made everybody laugh. The sailors threw their big, heads back and roared like lions, aid their white teeth shining through their beards made the children In the boat afraid. But the oncer boy stood up straight, and turned the boat around, and they rowed back to the island as proudly as they came. "Lower a boat!- - aid Slnbad the Sailor. They lowered a boat and Sinbal, Nebo and three sailors got In. Thiy started toward the Island, but oefoM they were half way there a cannon was fired from shore, and a solid rubber ball hit Nebo on the head. He looked surprised, but being dumb, he said nothing. The sailors kept on rowing, and soon another cannon was fired, and another ball struck Nebo. The sailors began to be frightened and wanted to turn around but Slnbad the Sailor told them in go ahead. Then another gun was fired, and another ball hit Nebo and bounded off. "Nebo, they don't like you." said Sinbad. "You are too black. Ton can gu back." Nebo Jumped out of the boat and (warn back to the ship. After that the annon kept still, because the children tad never seen any grown up people, and a good many of them wanted to tee them. They hid In their little houses, aM looked out of the wtadows, watching the boat with Slnbad In It Sinbad jumped ashore, and toll the three sailors to stay In the boat because the people on the Island were afraid of big men.

"In taking up rupture as a specialty," Dr. Henderson said to a reporter, "I was satisfied that the old principle was wrong and there was an opportun ity for a man who would devote time and study to improve it A rupture H a dangerous thing; no one can tell what minute it will cause trouble, and the time may come when relief is not within easy reach. It Is always a bother even when there is no pain or apparent danger. To be sure, It was no small task to revolutionize the treatment of rupture, and I am not boasting when I say that there are few men who would have worked, studied and experimented as I have done to bring out a new method and perfect it so as to be effective In all classes of rupture. My success has been my reward. I have been practicing this method for several years, and there are hundreds of people in Kansas City and vicinity who will take great pleasure In testifying to Its efficacy. People now coma to consult me from almost every state In the Union, and I have on file in my office letters from many of them showing the high esteem In which they hold the service I have rendered them." In treating rupture Dr. Henderson does not use a knife, consequently he has built up an immense practice and now enjoys a national reputation as a rupture specialist His plan of no pay until cured has certainly proven very popular.
