his sleepless mind that night, and be
fore morning saw the way clear. His
good faith must be made apparent;
it must shine above any shadow of
suspicion. Minnie sbou.d learn that
her husband's honor and fair name
were as much to Titus Sim as to her
self. how to effect this result was
his problem, and the footman believ
ed that he could solve it. For Sim
was perfectly familiar with the truth
concerning Adam Thorpe's end; and
no man knew better than he that Dan
iel had no part in the crime. The
secret murderer was not hidden from
Titus, nor was the hand that placed
Sweetland’s gun where he had found
it.
Everything conspired to his purpose.
He calculated that in a month’s time
he would be able to clear Sweetland's
n .me before the world. Then his
own reward seemed clear. Minnie,
once convinced that, her vague fears
and suspicions did him wrong, could
hardly deny him what he begged. In

d.O.D* BLOOD POISOH
The first outward sign of Contagious Blood Poison is a small sore or
blister. As the poisonous virus becomes more firmly entrenched in the blood
a red eruption appears on the body, the mouth and throat ulcerate, the hair
begins to come out, glands in the neck and groin swell, copper colored spots
appear on the breast, back, etc., and the unfortunate victim finds himself
diseased from head to foot. Mercury and potash do not cure Contagious
Blood Poison ; they shut the disease up in the system. and remove the out
ward symptoms for awhile, but when the treatment is left off the trouble
returns. Then the system being weakened from the action of these strong
minerals the disease makes more rapid headway than before. S. S. S. is the
antidote for Contagious Blood Poison. It cures permanently and certainly
by going down into the blood and removing every vestige of the virus. It
is free from all minerals, and while purifying the blood it builds up the entire
system by its fine tonic effects. S. S. S. destroys every particle of the poison
and removes all danger of transmitting it to others. S. S. S. cures Con
tagious Blood Poison because it is a perfect blood purifier. Book with
iitofructions for self treatment and any medical advice free.

Address, THE HERALD, Augusia. Ga.
Ito make her his own he poured all
]the strength of a tre.mendous will. He
i had not come so far upon the journey
to be repulsed. He had not moved
by dark ways and committed worse
than crimes for nothing. From a
mental condition of anger and uneasi
ness his devious soul plotted itself
back into content and calm. The end
was assured and the means to play
his final strokes now lay clear before
the mau’s intelligence. To establish
absolute confidence in himself as
Sweetland’s friend —true even beyond
I death —was now his purpose; and the
I thing he planned to do. if brought to
a successful issue, could hardly fail
to show him in a noble lignt and con
i vince the skeptic. If any such existed
beside Minnie, that his aims were
pure and his faith above all suspr:-
lon.
A week later, when she had told her
secret and her little world mourned
In its wonder, and yet also triumphed
at the ingenuity of the natlye who
would never return again, Titus Sim
visited Minnie with offers to assist
her in any step she might now be
contemplating. But she did not avail
herself of the suggestion.
“I’m going back to my aunt come
presently,” she said. “I can’t hide
here no more now. After Michaelmas
I give it up an’ return to Moreton."
Her face was very pale against her
black dress, and darkness ana sorrow
haunted her beautiful eyes; hut no
living soul hail seen her deepest grler.
That was hidden from all. Her voice
never shook when she spoke of Daniel
jto Titus Sim, for Instinct told her
; the man, despite his protestations, did
not share her bereavement. Only with
Daniel’s mother, or in the company of
Jane Beer, did she reveal a glimpse
of her breaking heart.
“Command me, If 1 can serve you
in any possible manner.” he said.
“And don’t think I’m forgetting, this
great sorrow because tis not always
upon my tongue. Far from it; Daniel
is never out of my thoughts. He’t
beyond the reach of aught but ’pray
ers; but his honor and good name are
the legacies he left behind, and ’lts
for us to treasure them and make ’em
shine out like the sun from behinn
this cloud that darkens them. I know
only too well you don’t believe me
It’s been the greatest grief in a sail
life —the greatest but Daniel’s death —
that you kept his secret from me and
did not let me know that he was still
j alive. I’ve had nought but sleepless
nights thinkiug of it. And why foi
you don’t trust me I can’t guess, ann
why you hid the welfare of my great
est friend from me I shall never
know; but this I know: you had no
just reason, and not by word or deeo
or thought or dream have I ever done
him wrong. Be that as it may. I’ll
say nothing about it and I'll ask you
for no explanation, for 'tisn’t a time to
wrangle which of us—man or woman
—friend or wive—loved him best. I u
not prate; I'll do. i believe even now
that 'twill be my blessed lot to ctea,
his memory afore the world. You
gaze at me as if you thought ’twould
be no joy to me to do it—see how I
read what's in your eyes! But I
swear afore the throne of Heaven
that I'd sooner clear his name and
sweeten his memory than be a prince
!n the land or the ruler of cities."
“If you could do it. why have you
waited until now?” she asked coldly
"Because Providence willed that, I
should wait. And even now I'm only
hopeful, not positive. I should have
striven to do all and bring you the
glad news when I'd got it proved be
yond the doubt of the world; but now
Heaven has hit upon a better way.
I Yes, ‘Heaven's’ the word, for in right
!ing Daniel in the world’s eyes, I pray
|God will right me in yours, Minnie
;Sweetland.”
He paused, but she only surveyed
him silently, and he spoke again.
‘•Thus It stands. The poor soul com
monly called •Drunkard’ Parkinson is

•‘The election of l!>oti Indicates a
trend In favor of the Demoeratlc
party. The details prove that the!
Democratic party Is growing stronger |
as Republican policies are developed.
"In New York the party has won,
a signal victory In spite of the tre-!
mendoua efforts put forth in behalf,
of the administration
"The Republicans had all the money
they wanted; they had the support of
all the great corporations and at the
close, they had whatever influence the
administration could lend. The fact
that the Democrats won every stale
office exci'pt the governorship, shows
lhat. In the Umpire state the Republi
can party has been repudiated.
"The defeat of Mr. Hears!. the De
mocratic and Independence candidate
for governor, while a great disap
pointment to Ills friends and to his
party, is explained by facts that rob
Mr. Hughes’ victory of glory and poli
tical significance.
’’Mr. McCarren, whom Mr. Hearst
denounced as a boss, threw his influ
ence to Hughes and cut down Mr.
carst’s vote In Brooklyn.
“Mayor McClellan, the legality or
whose election Mr. Hears! had de-j

and cut down the Hearst vote lnj
New York. Mr. Jerome, the prose-]
outing attorney of New York, who
had also been attacked by Mr. Hearst.I
supported the republican ticket and
his Influence was felt In Greater Now
York.
"Mr. Croker. during the last days
of the campaign, made an attack on
Mr. Hearst, which doubtless weaken
ed the democratic candidate among
the Tamanyltes. Mr. Murphy, the
head of Tammany, while supporting
the ticket, could not put. much en
thustasm into a campaign, owing to
the personal controversies which he
had with Mr. Hearst.
“It is evident, therefore, that. Mr.
Hughes owes his victory not to re
publican votes, hut to democratic
votes, hut to democratic votes brought
to him bv the very men whom ho and
the republican leaders have been de
nouncing for years.
“President Roosevelt cannot find
very much cause for rejoicing in tho
New York returns. To have his own
state go democratic cannot be grati
fying to him and to find his personal
attack upon Mr. Hearst had little In
fluence on the result compared with
the influence exerted by McCarren,
Murphy and Croker will not gladden

Lueger perhaps does not dislike the

Finding that denunciation of the
priests and socialism did not win

“Down with tho Jews,” not because
of their religion, but. because of their
financial supremacy. This policy, he
found, immensely pleased not only the
