DAILY ENQUIRER - 81N: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA SUNDAY MORNING, JUNE 20, 1886. CONVINCED. • t«U me, denreet, trnth for truth, 1 goinettmee fhar you may have known In boyhood or your earliest youth. Another girl you called your own. "Forgive me If I seem to lapse From perfect fttith— that is not It; 1 only wonder If, perhaps, You ever loved a little bit!” He thought of Kate, whose brilliant mind One gave to live Its keenest zest; He thought of Maud, whose hair had lined The left side pocket of his vest. lie thought of Lillie, Nell and Sue, Of gentle May and saucy Nan, And then he did as lovers do, And proved himself a truthful man. With injured air and mournful eye He sadly turned away liis head. If you can think—” she heard him sigh, •Oh! no—no—no! I don’t?” she said. (tent him again to gram whora he oontiu ued to lie. "Get up.” Mid Mapea.1 “You’ll knocklme down said. “Yes,” returned Mapes, “I will.” “Theu I won’t get up,” said Timms. “You’re an infernal scoundrel,” knocklme down again,” Timms Mnjres. said TIMMS’S STRATEGY, Mapes was chivalrous by nature; he be lieved in “seeking the bubble reputation even at the cannon’s mouth." His enthu siasm was aroused by the recital of stories of deeds of desperate daring, while he had nothing but contempt for even suc cess won by crooked and indirect means. Timms, on the contrary, believed there was policy in war, and that the end justi fied the means, particularly if the end was attained. Companions from infancy, their lives had been spent in competition for scholastic and such other honors as the lo cality afforded, without even a momentary break In their friendship. But now in early manhood, they strugpled for a prize of incalculable value, with an ardor that threatened a complete rupture of friendly relations. The heart and hand of Eliza Beid, the neighborhood belle were to be won, and to these none others might as pire in the face of such formidable compe tition as that of Mapes and Timms. They loane—each by virtue of his own person ality and position—had a right to lay seige to the heart of that variable, irritable, im perious beauty, and for months the strife between them had gone on. Each one had called into play all his personal and .social resources; for the local society had taken such an interest that it was divided into factions known as the Mapesites and Timsites. And yet Miss Eliza could not be brought to express a preference; if she rode with one to-day, she was careful to walk abroad with the rival to-morrow. Coquetry is delicious to a woman, and Eliza would not have been feminine had she been in haste to have made an elec tion. Nevertheless, she did not intend to miss her opportunity. She knew well that the war could not always last, and feared that when one of the aspirants for her fa vor withdrew from the contest, the love of the other, wanting the stimulous of competition, would grow gold; hence she had made up her mind that, upon the most favorable opportunity she would signify to Mapes that his suit, so often pressed, was at last accepted. The opportunity, it seemed, was not to be long wanting, for invitations were Igiven out for an apple- bee in the neighborhood, and Eliza found means to convey an intimation to Mapes that she expected to meet him there, and counted on his escort home at the conclu sion of the frolic. The appointed evening, looked for with such nervous anticipation by Mapes, came at length. He felt that it was the impor tant event of his life, and arrayed himself as only a rustic dandy can. His way lay across a meadow, through which ran—or rather loitered—a deep but narrow stream, spanned by a single log. It was so dark when he reached this primitive bridge that he was compelled to feel his way slowly across. As he progressed it began to swing lightly—something very unusual —until no reached the centre, when, to bis utter confusion, it gave way, and he was launched into the water. He scrambled out, then suddenly the night became lum inous with the lurid light to which people refer when they sav, in speaking of some profane wretch, “Fie swore until all was blue.” Whatever illuminating qualities this lurid light possessed, it had no drying ones, and Mapes was forced to bid adieu for the night to all hopes of plighting his troth to the loved Eliza. In the rural districts down east in early times the good people had such habits of I industry and rigid economy that they sel dom gave or attended parties, unless such as were cloaked under the names of rais- i mgs, quiltings, huskings or apple bees, i thus the apple-bee fraught with moment ous consequences to Mapes and Timms was but a social party in disguise—a few apples being pared, quartered, cored and strung in kthe early evening for appearances’ I sake. i As usual, Eliza Heed was the belle of the j occasion. Good looks, entire self-posses- ! sion, and a keen, satirical wit always as sured her that position; and this night she shone with unusual brilliancy, until, as t lie hours wore away and Mapes came not she began to lose herself in pondering why, and at length she asked Timms: “Is your friend Mapes ailing?” “I guess not,” replied Timms. “I saw him to-day. He wasn’t com plaining.” “He denies himself much pleasure,” said Eliza, “in not coming here to-night, for this is the place where we always nave a good time. Aunt Judy knows now to give an apple bee.” “You let Mapes alone,” answered Timms —“He knows what he’s about.” “What do you mean,” asked Eliza. “Ob, i mean,” replied Timms, “that Mapes is the prince of good fellows and guts invitations where the rest of us j don’t.” “Where is Mapes to-night?” asked Eliza, now fully aroused. “I don’t know for sure,” answered Timms. “He told me to-duv there were -p'-cial reasons for bis coming here, but that he had uii invitation to the rich and aristocratic Squire llutoon’s who is celc- . brating his daughter’s birthday, and that be didn’t know which way lie would go.” And Timms turned away to talk to the next prettiest girl in the room. I’etted young women arc seldom logical patient. When tin- party broke up Eliza accepted Timm’s escort to her home, and before they arrived there she had con sented to become, with tlie least possible delay, Mrs. Timms. The next morning tlic engagement was announced, and prep arations commenced. Timms was exult ant—happy Timms? For a few days Timms was not much seen in public—perhaps for want of cour age to wear his blushing honors openly; perhaps for want of courage to meet other contingencies—who knows? But a man cannot make arrangements for his own wedding from a fixed standpoint, and he Was compelled to venture out. In a quiet and secluded by-way he met Mapes. The meeting to him was a surprise; lie smiled i feebly and extended his hand. But Mapes, rnteut on business, strode squarely up to Timms, and planted a vigorous blow on one of his eyes, which caused that gentle man to measure his length in the dust. Timms sprang to his feet and showed | nght, but another blow on the other eye can’t help your saying so,” answered Timms. “You sawed the log,” said Mapes. “What log?" asked Timms. “You sawed the log,” repeated Mapes, advancing a step. “Yes—stop,” said Timms; “I sawed the log.” “Well, you needn’t think,” said Mapes, "that after your marriage you're going 10 tell that story and make me a laughing stock." “I’ll never speak of it,” whined Timms. “Perhaps you won’t,” said Mapes; “but I’m going to swear you before I got through. There’s another thing; you won the woman by your trickery, and i know it’s in you to abuse her, so I'm going to swear you to treat her kindly.” "I'll swear,” said Timms. “Hold up vour hand,” said Mapes. Timms held up liis hand. “Now, repeat after me: ‘I, Silas Timms, solemnly swear that I will never bring to the knowledge of any human being that I sawed the log whereby Daniel Mapes fell into the creek and lost a wife; and further that I will, she consenting, marry Eliza Reed, and always treat her well, so help nn God." Timms repeated the oath verbatim. “Now get up and go home,” said Mapes. “I don’t think you’ll be married till your eyes get out of mourning, and by that time 111 be far enough away. But don’t think I'll lose sight of you, and if you dont keep your oath you’ll see me.” Timms arose from the ground, shook off the dust and walked away; but when he had secured ^a i safe distance he shouted back exultingly: “Mapes, she’s an angel.” In twentylyears Daniel Mapes had learn ed many .things, and among them this: Life is very much as we make it. In other words, the world is like a mirror and looks nt us with the face we represent. It re turns scowl tor scowl and smile for smile. It echoes our sobs and our laughter. To the cold it as ;icy as the northern seas; to the loving, it is as balmy as the Isles of the tropics. He had learned a still harder lesson; which was to forget the griefs, the sorrows, the slights, the wrongs, and the hates of the past. The effect of tne lesson was to make it appear that the lines, to him had fallen in pleasant places. His rotund form and firm muscle bespoke a good digestion, while a cheerful counten- tenance told ol mental peace. A fair wo man named him husband and children called him father.; ;A beautiful home in Santa Clara Valley was theirs: besides which Mapes had many broad acres of I land, as well as many head of stock run- ; ning nearly wild in the counties of Monte- ! rey, and Luis Obispo. Once in each year the cattle that graze on California’s thousand hills are gathered in bands at convenient places, to be claim ed and branded bv the owners—such as semblages being called rodeos. Mapes bad been down across the Salinas Plains, in attendance upon a rodeo; and being on his return, jogging along on his mustang, he saw far in the distance, but nearing him, an equally lone traveler. Slowly the dis tance between them decreased: and as they approached, Mapes—with California pru dence-slipping his revolver upon the Delt which sustained it from his back round to his left side, bringing the hilt under the shadow of his bridle arm, and within easy reach of his right hand. A near look assured Mapes that he had no occasion for weapons: the coming man was of middle age, but his look was worn, weary, deject ed and hopeless—in local phrase, his man ner was that of a person who “has lost his grip;” and those who have met that terri ble misfortune are never highway robbers, e being the very quality wanted in that irdous pursuit. The travelers met with a long, inquiring f aze, when from their lips simultaneously urst the words “Mapes’’—"Timms.” Af ter a moment of mute surprise Mapes, spurring his mustang, drew nearer Timms. “So we meet at last. I have been want ing to see you for many a year.” The movement seemed ominous to Timms, and he cried out, “Don't—don’t shoot! I have no weapons! Besides, I have kept my oath—at least as ;well as I could. I never told the reason why you didn't at tend the apple-bee, nor ever breathed a 1 syllable about the sawed log—upon my solemn oath!” “I wasn’t thinking of the ducking,” said ; Mapes. i “Don’t come any nearer,” returned Timms. “I have always tried to use that woman well; but she wouldn’t be used , well. I have done my best to treat her kindly, but she wouldn’t be treated kind ly.” “It is no use to go over the grounds to me,Timms.” “But,” replied Timms, “you have no idea what that woman is; you would not blame me if you only knew. She has browbeat me till I ain’t half a man.” “So I see,” said Mapes. “No, you don’t see,” replied Timms. | “You don’t see half. “Look at this scar” . —taking off his hat and showing a long seam on his scalp—“that was done with a skillet.” “You have suffered,” snid Mapes. “Suffered!” returned Timms. You ought to have sworn her, too. If you only knew how 1 have thought of you, and of my oath to you; and how I have borne blows and been quiet—how I have been called a brute and a fool and kept silent—how I endured taunts and sneers, hunger and dis comforts, without a word of reproach—you would forgive me; you wouldn’t harbor thoughts of revenge.” “Thoughts of revenge!” said Mapes. “Let us dismount and have a settlement, for I see my chance has come at last!” “Mapes would you take the life of au | unarmed man?” “Timms, you’re crazy. Let me explain. 1 have no wrongs to avenge. It isn’t for vengeance that I have wished to see you. I have heard about you often—know all your life and experiences; and i have only wanted to meet you, to offer you a home and friendship, employment and opportu nities for prosperity here in California. I owe you a debt but one of gratitude, for the inestimable service you did me by that little job of carpenter work, and that I mean to pay. Come with me.” Ho took Timms’ horse by the bridle, turned him about without remonstrances, and they traveled on in silence. After awhile Timms raised liis eyes tim idly from the ground and said: “Mapes, she's the devil.” Munv a person is starving with a full ta ble before them. Appetite gone! Ambi tion gone !

THOS J WAIT. P. M A Southernized Yankee INCREASING FAST Who Has Eight Pounds and a Half o‘ Al en Flesh. BUT THE HEART THROBS OF TRUE MANHOOD. Si’arta, Ga., Sept. 22, 1885.—To the Constitu tion, Atlanta- Were I to practice deception in a case like this, I would think that my heart had becomee seared beyond recognition. To he guilty of bearing false testimony, thereby imperiling the lives of my fellow-men, would place me beneath the dignity of n gentleman. The facts which I disclose are endorsed and vouched for by the community in which I live, and I trust they may exert the influence in tended. For twenty long years I have suffered untold tortures from a terrible pain and weakness in t lie small of my back, which resisted all movies ami manner of treatment. For a long time the horrifying pangs of an eat ing cancer of my lower lip has added to my mis ery and suffering. This encroaching, burning and painflil sore on my lip was pronounced Epi thelial Cancer by the prominent physicians In his section, which stubbornly resisted the best medical talent. About eighteen months ago a cutting, piercing pain located in my breast, which could not be allayed by the ordinary modes of treatment. These sufferings of mis* ry and prostration be came so great that, on the 18th of laRt July, a leading physician said that I could not live long er than four days, and I had about given up in despair. The burning and excruciating ravages of the cancer, the painful condition of my back ami breast, and the rapid prostration of my whole system combined to make me a mere wreck of former manhood While thus seemingly suspended on a thread ! between life and death, I commenced the use of j B. B. B., the grandest blood medicine to me and my household, ever used. The effect was wonderful—it was magical. The excruciating pains which had tormented me by day and by night for twenty yearR were soon held in abeyance, and peace and comfort were restored to a suffering man, the cancer com menced healing, strength was imparted to my feeble frame, and when eight bottles had been used I was one of the happiest of men, and felt about as well as I ever did. All pain had vanished, the cancer on ray lip healed, and I was pronounced cured. To those who are afflicted, and need a blood remedy, I urge the use of It. B, It. as a wonderfully effective, speedy and cheap blood purifier. An. i Sparta. Ga., September 22, 1885.—I saw Mr. .
