THE SUNNY SOUTH, ATLANTA, GEORGIA, NOVEMBER 26, 1892.
to know where she is, nor to see or hear
from her until I am in a position to
meet her on an equal footing.”
“Very well,” answered Mrs. Brew
ster, shrugging her shoulders, “but if
you want auy books I think we are
able to buy them.”
“That I know well enough, but I
also feel that she sent these books
in a kindly spirit, and I shall so use
them.” He drew himself up to his
full !•< ight and continued, “I have
often longed for a world outside of our
humdrum farm life, mother, but the
desire has never before taken hold of
me as it has to-day; we must move to
the city where I can have all the ad
vantages I need, and where I can fit
myself to battle for the goal she has
pointed out to me.”
Mrs. Brewster looked at him in
mingled astonishment and pleasure,
astonished at the sudden change, and
S leased that ambition had overridden
espair.
“We can lease the farm,” he went
on, “and sell the timbered lands to
the saw-mills. With this I can start
on a road of usefulness.”
“As you see fit, my son. I am willing
to do.”
“It is settled, then, and by the first
of February I will be hard at work,
for her.”
Mrs. Brewster did not reply, but
during the next few weeks, while
leases and bills of sale were being ex
ecuted, she became enthused over the
change, and when a few weeks later,
Dan entered a prominent lawyer’s
office, in a city only a few hundred
miles from Pineville, she was as happy
as her son.
Five years flew rapidly by, and the
awkward country boy was transformed
into a handsome, brilliant young at
torney.
One morning, as he was idly loung
ing in an easy chair, reading, the office
door opened and his partner entered,
in an agitated manner. “Dan,” he
said hurriedly, “you have been long
ing for an opportunity to test your
skill, and to demonstrate my capacity
as a teacher.”
“Yes,” answered Dan.
“Well, the time has arrived.”
“What do you mean?” asked Dan,
who saw from his friend’s manner that
something was wrong.
“Just this,” replied Mr. Drake, “I
am called suddenly away by the illness
of my wife, who you know has been
North some time, and am compelled to
leave on the noon train. Three days
from now one ol our most important
cases will be called in court at Akron,
just one hundred miles from here, and
you will have to defend it.”
“ It is the Howell will case, is it
not? ”
“ Yes, and a hard fight you will have,
too; I know the men who are attack
ing the will, and they are veterans in
the cause.”
“ I will teach them a few points,”
confidently asserted the young man.
“ but you had better give me all the
suggestions you can.”
“That is what I intend doing; you
know old man Howell left all or his
property to an adopted daughter, a
Miss Milledge; well, his relatives
objected strongly to this step, and are
now endeavoring to break the will. If
you win the case, my boy, it will be
fame and fortune for you, and maybe,”
with a twinkle in his dark blue eyes,
“ a sweet little woman to be your mare
for life.” ;
Dan sighed, and his thoughts flew
back to a fair little face, wreathed in a j
mass of clustering curls that had'
appeared to him years ago in his dreary
country life; he had not forgotten his
first love, although no glimpse of her
had ever come to him, and not one
word had he heard since that memor
able Thanksgiving morning.
The next hour was devoted to giving
Dan all the notes and advice possible
in the case, and when this had been
accomplished the elder attorney took
his departure, leaving the young man
deeply engrossed in his work.
For twenty-four hours Dan labored
as he had never before, and thought
not of rest until his line of battle had
been fully prepared and he was on his
way to the scene of his first great en
gagement. j
When the case was called Dan
responded ready, and the routine of
court began. i
Not far from him sat the defendant,
dressed in sombre color and heavily
veiled. As the eyes of the young
attorney rested upon her, his heart
opened with sympathy, and a feeling
of deep interest took possession of him.
When he arose to address the court
little attention was given him by the
immense throng gathered to witness
the famous trial; but scarce a dozen
words had rolled from his lips before j
the quietness of death reigned, and he
held them spellbouud.
For two hours he was master of their
hearts and minds, and when he had
finished, and sank back in his chair, a
loud roar of applause greeted him, re
gardless of the place.
The young lady half arose, as if to
come to his side, but restrained the de- j
sire and remained in her position, al
though she was visibly affected.
“By George,” muttered an old man,
“I’ve heard a great many arguments
in my life, and I never heard a better ;
if the jury don’t side with the girl,
they are either fools or bought men ! ”
The case was concluded that day,

and late in the evening a message was
sent to Mr. Drake as follows :
“I’ve won the case.”
Dan.
After the trial the young lawyer
went immediately to the hotel for the 1
rest he so badly needed, but scarcely
had he reached his room before a por
ter rapped on the door and informed
him that a young lady desired to see
him in the parlor.
Dan arose rather reluelantly and
sought his fair visitor.
In the parlor he found the same
black robed lady who had elicited
his feelings so deeply in the court
room, still heavily veiled.
As he entered she arose and said, in
a low tone:
“Mr. Brewster, I trust you will par
don this intrusion, but I could not go
home without thanking you for the
grand effort in my behalf—without it
I should have failed.”
“Please do not mention it,” an
swered Dan, §miling, “it was my pro
fession, you know.”
“And would you have done the same
for any one ? ” she asked, uneasily.
“Yes, for any one who had em
ployed me.”
“Would you have done it for me?”
almost hysterically cried the lady,
throwing back the heavj 7 covering from
her face.
Dan staggered back, as his eyes rested
upon the pale, agitated countenance
before him.
“Ethel! ” he cried.
“Yes, it is Ethel,” she replied sadly,
“the same little girl you used to lead
about the old woods near Pineville and
who you once said you loved ; and who
so cruelly—”
“Hush,” he said gently, “those
things are in the past; your cruelty as
you please to term it, was the cause of
a change in my life which has led to
this point—for that I have you to
thank.”
She looked at him in astonishment,
and gasped :
“Then you are not angry at me for—
for—”
“I have nothing to be angry at,
Ethel, but when you are recovered
from the shock your uncle’s death gave
you, I would like to receive an answer
to the question I asked once, and which
you partially replied to that Thanks
giving day.”
She blushed under his loving gaze
and held out her hand toward him,
which he took in both of his, and
looked long and lovingly into the
downcast eyes before him.

CASE OF MBS. STAMPS.
Talladega, Ala., Sept. 25th, 1891.
Dr. M. T. Salter—Dear Sir : For the great ben
efit I have derived from your treatment I wish to
assure you of my everlasting gratitude. I am
certainly indebted to your medical skill for my
life. Prior to your treatment I had the unre
mitting attention of the best medical skill of
this place, but despite that fact my case grew
worse and worse until a consultation of the med
ical fraternity of this place was called, when my
ease was pronounced hopeless. Every resource
known to their combined practice had been ex
hausted. It was at this point, when all hope had
been despaired of, that a lriend suggested that I
place my case under your treatment which I did
and from which time, thank Heaven, I have
grown steadily better until I am now once more
on my feet, able to walk over the neighborhood
without fatigue. I relish my meals and eat
heartily, from which I suffer no ill effects, and
sleep almost as well as when in the full blo< m of
health. Such a transformation is almost miracu
lous. Had you seen me for the first time when I
sought your medical aid, then again not until
now r , I dare say you would not recognize me
without an accident. I hope s< on to regain my
wonted health. My case attracted considerable
attention in the community. I had been in de
clining health for six years The last fifteen
months I was seldom out of bed. Six months
prior to your treatment, I w r as not able to lift my
head from my pillow, growing rapidly worse all
the while, until I had reached that point when a
turn in my case must be made or certain death
quicklv ensue. It was at this point that I was
directed to you. My case wa- one of very com
plicated character. My heart was involved. I
had dvspepsia in its most aggravated form. My
constitution was almost gone. In fact it seemed
that I had a touch of almost every ill to which
human flesh is heir, but thanks to a beneficent
Father, just as the last spark of life was about to
leave this tenement of clay, a Heaven-sent angel
as it were came along and directed me to you, as
an instrument in his hands to relieve human
afflict ons It is my sincere praver that you may
be spaied to administer to suffering humanity
for many years. Very respectfully,
Mrs. H. S. Stamps.

tisement of Dr. Salter’s.

During the hard times we have just gone
through with there has not been a greater suc
cess than that made by the Nantabala Marble and
Tale Company. Since the days when people
grew rich on a small investment in Eiyton stock,
i here has never been such a chance to make a
fortune on a small investment as is now- offered
by the Nantabala Marble and Talc Company. If
vou should invest 8200 and draw out a thousand
inside of two years, you would be very happy;
hut mark cur words: a good many of the men
and women who are now investing in Xantahala
stock will do even better than that. This is no
rainbow chasing, but is based on experience of
scores of new towns: fifty can be named where
much better was done without halt the wealth-
produeiDg properties that Nantabala has.
The most careful and successful men aud
women are investing in Nantabala. The Com
pany has paid in full for its splendid property,
which is thought to he the richest of its kind in
the world, and does not owe a dollar; has a large
balance in its treasury, and pays c sh for every
thing as it goes. A number of the wealthiest
and most refined ladies and gentlemen in the
cities of Charleston, Augusta, Macon, Greenville,
Atlanta and other cities are arranging to build
them beautiful summer homes in that delightful
region, while the basis of a great industrial city
is rapidly being formed.
We have investigated this enterprise thor
oughly, and recommend it to our readers as one
of the' very best and safest investments on the
market.
