Looks like ’im, don’t, it?" Foolish, foolish Mrs. Forman. Why could she not havo guessed that Rachel’s longing gain had boon fastoned, from her window, oil that tcll-talo whitu horse and lomi of grain over since they turned the coiner by the mill; that Rachel’s heart whs beating thump 1 thump! thump I ngalnst her side wh’lo she answered care lessly : “Mobbo ’tin. Seams aomo like his llg.” Then, after a bit of silence: “What ye want t’ know for, mn?" as if this innocent a; coch could not stand by itself. “0, nothing,V feebly. “Ain’t ye go- in’ t’ pick the peas lor dinner?” The girl set down her Iron with an im- pationt thud that brought a dull blush of consciousness to her mother’s cheeks. “Vo said ye didn’t want none," was the sullen uuswor. Mrs. Furman frowned into her dust pan as she poked the broom undor tho squat, little stove. Really, Rachel seemed to have no wit at all. Tho pea patch stood at such a convenient angle to the highway. “Things didn’t go like that when 1 wns young,” tho simple woman mused. “Folks es’ kop’ comp’ny toll they was t’ be married an’ then they was married, V no tieubloV quar’iin’. ’T any rate, ’twas so with me an’ Jeremiah." This was, indeed, the truth. The late Mr. Farman had found a moat com plaisant listener to his tale of lovo. Meanwhile Rachel wont on slamming her irons iu the kitchen. Neither her angry sweetheart, driving in unhappy heaviness along the dusty road, nor her distracted mother, listening for some concilWory sign, could know that her eyes wore too lull of tears to see her work. Mrs. Farman stsrtod suddenly in des peration us tho wagon drew near. “I got to train tint rosebush by tho gate," she muttered iu self excuse, stealing softly out of the door; “I been goin’ to do it all summer. It looks dretful." Still she reached the fence without her shears. Joe had determined not to turn his head toward the house; but, you see, bo had not couuted upou the eager figure In tlio Happing sunbannet which loaned across the palings an I pooled up into his face. 11 hud long boon a favorite joke at the corner grocery, Mrs. Farmun’s pursuit of this eligible young man, and iio was possessed of no special fondness for so apparently willing a mother-in- law , yet it would bo ourugeous rude ness to drive past when any one stood waiting with speech for him on her lips, if it was Rachel’s mother, and in front of Rachel’s home. Mo must see what she wauted, and ho must stop old Jim to listen. “ Wy, how d’ye do, Mr. Myers?” was the first remark, with a clumsy attempt at surprise; “1 ain’t seen ye this long time. How’s your ma?” “She's tol'nble,” Mr. Myers answered coldly, by no means appeased at this polite nddross. llo was not in tho hu mor for a go-between. “Yuu pretty well, Mrs, Farmnii?” She chose to consider this inquiry in te broadest sense. “W’y, I'm eujoyim’ good health,” the honest, soul rejoined, “ ’u ’tb’ boys is leal rugged. But Kuchaol she scorns sort »' peaked this summer. Don’t eat nothin’ V don’t git 'or uat’ral sleep. I’m worried 'bout Rachel." Tho Hues mound Joe's mouth soomod to tighten. “Honosot tea’s good,” bo re torted coolly and gave his horse a cluck. Poor little Mrs. Farmun made a clutch at the guto railing. “Joe," Bhe said in a high, shrill whisper, “wait jest a minute. 1 waut to suy somethin'. Be ye mad at Rachel?” “Well, ye know w'y, ef 1 be," roared the injured youth, growing very red. •I ain't never been treated so before 'u dl my life.

But. she says any- udy could see, with half an eye, which way Rachel was lookin’. 1 guess she’s tbout right." He slapped the reins upon old Jim’s lawk and started off grimly past his horror stricken auditor. “That ain’t so,” pleaded Mrs. Far- •nan, wringing her hands.

The conspirators looked up guiltily. Of course tho girl had known 'when Joe’s wagon had stopped. Of course, with her hard won acquaintance with her mother’s tactics, she had como ito see what followed. “I thank ye very jinuch, ma,” she went on, her blue eyes blazing with a pride wounded unto Ideath, "but ye neenter interfere in my nlfairs any more. An’, as fer yer kind •remarks about me, Mr. Myers,” fixing tier ire upon ttie awe-struck Joseph, “your’s and yei mother’s—it’s all one— ye kin make up yer mind, I ain’t soilin’ myself yet, ef my own Heali an’ blood is willin' I" She was loo furious to be even as just as is possible to a woman. Every one knew that Mrs. Farnrnn cared far moro for her daughter's happiness than for the mortgage. “An’ here—" thu wild creature con tinued,pulling a pink envelope from her calico pocket—“i was agoin’t’ send ya word, this very day, that I was ashamed and sorry on accouut o’ that Thursday night. But 1 ain’t ashamed or sorry now. I’m glad of it!” The propitiatory words flew away, ns sbo spoko, like countless rose-petals, un der her impatient fingers. Joe was as red and excited by this time as Rachel herself. “I wish yo a better temper, Miss Far- man,” lie said in cutting scorn, “Au’ good-mornin’t’ yo, ladies.” With which he stitHy raised his battered straw hat and drove away. Mro. Farraau ran past the younger wo man with much tho air of a child expect ing reproof. She hurried through the house to licr bedroom, where she shut nnd locked tlio door. Lying on the white pillows, between fear nnd disap pointment she sobbed herself into that ivoful state of headache which wus eure, in the end, to cal! birth abundant (Rial repentance and awkward tenderness. There should be no cunningly Contrived meeting to-night. Ah, but some one else thought tho sarao thing, in his wrath, when, after a few moments with his mothoi, he fol lowed in Rachel’s footsteps. * “Mis Farman can’t wind me ’round her little finger,” he growled to himself; “I guess me an’ liar—this did not refer to Mrs. Farraau—Is old ’nough to run our own concerns.” And he took the same long way home. In spite of Mrs. Myers, the night Was lightened by a waning moon Which presently showed Joe A figure speeding down the path before him. His pulse Dent quicker, but lie strode doggedly on, determined to pass and leave her. Oh, a young heart is soft. How small and slight she looked as he drew near I And he wsb of his mother’s opinion—it was dark. “Good evenin', Mbs Farman," he be gan id her ear, making her jump aud cry out suddenly, “ain’t ye 'fraid t’ bo out so late? I’ll wait on ye hom, ef ye’d like t’ have me.” Was ever anything as clumsy as a ner vous man?” “Well, I wouldn't like I" Rachel spoke Up. Her voice wbb sharp from pain. But how was he to know thatl “Very well, thoa I'll relieve yo of my comp’ny. ’Tnin't. ez ef 'twas Ben Mar- tin’s!” He brushed past her in a fury. Thera wss ono glance, a blessed chance, idirected at her face. What he saw there made him pause. “Wot ye cryin’ fer?” he demanded. “I ain’t cryin',’’ Which was not true. “Ye be.” “’Tain’t nothin’ t’ ye, then, ef I am,” the girl snap|fed. “’Tis, too, tho rude fellow muttered, and—I don’t know what made him— took her in hia arms. Any one who knew Mrs. Furman’s soft persistence as did her family could not have been surprised at the devices which she undauntedly employed in the timo to emne, August passed away, and Hep- tombor frosts began to fall. Bun Martin came to call at the little farmhouse Sun day nights. Joe Myers gave up singing in the choir, nnd stalked in nnd out of church unconscious of tho vacant ohair whore ho had boon wont to sit uud look over the same hymnbook—O blissful period I—witti the sweet soprano. And Rachel’s honrtsick dignity was quick to Bee through such shallow maneuvers as busiuess notes about the “iutciast," an orrand to Myers's nuxtdoor neighbors, or Mopping at the post-office when her quondam admirer was to bo seen within. As she resolutely turned her back upon those opportunities, her mother was fain to employ a subtler artifice. In the first place, the minister’s wife fell ill. This gavo tho sohemiug woman hor chance. Bhe managed that Mrs. Myers and herself should divide ono day and night between them as “watchers." Blio knew Joe would bring his mother over at dusk to begin her period of nursing. Then when lie came Mrs. Farman, ready to leave, had an errand prepared for him which" entailed a long walk to the farther end of tho straggling village, after which ho must return to tho parsonage. In tho meantime, breathless, trembling and glowing, Rachel's mother hurried ou hoi homeward way and bustled into tho quiet kitchen whuro her daughter sat brooding over th i lire in tho dreary autumn twilight. “Sakes alive!” she cried at once. “I fergot 'u' left my gold-rimmed specs t’ th’ minister's. Like ez uot Mis Myers ’ll wear ’em home fer hors. Wotever shall I do?” “Oh, I'll go after ’em," Rachel re plied iudiffcreutly, catching up a blanket shawl. “D’ye remember where yo laid ’em down, mat" "Mis Myers ’ll hunt 'em up fer ye," was the impatient rejoiudor, "of ye ain't afraid t’ start out now; it's gittin’ so ,dnrk. She know's right w’ero I was settin' when she como in. I shouldn’t wonder ef they’re on th’ cubbnrd there by tho mod cine. Anyway, don’t como back back without 'em child. 1 aiu’t any thing I set more store by’n wot I do them specs. They were th' las' thing yer pa give mo before he died, 1 guess.” Rachel vaguely wondered that her mother should seem so tlutterod and in coherent. Yet her mind was too full, occupied to dwell deeply upou tilts un important fact. She listeuo 1 in a dreamy llstkssness and in a few momenta was out upon the lonely road. Joe had told Mrs. Myers of the scene at the Furman gate. It gave her a much more lenient judgment of his lady-love. A. ogether, and after the manner of mothers, seeing day by day a misery be- jond her help, she began to think Bite would not bo sorry to bring the two to gether. “It’s a tumble dark night, ain’t it?” she remarked good-naturedly, as, after a littleseareb for the missing spectacles, sho followed Rachel to the parsou’s door. “My sou’ll be here d’rec’iy. FJ ye rniud't' wait he’ll be pleased t’ see ye home, I’m sure.” The wretched girl turned to stare in the kindly face above her. Perhaps, in that moment, the fiercely erected barrier might have come tu nbliug down but for the words that followed: “Your ma sent ‘im over to Salisbury's t’ see ’bout Mis Taylor's reclinin' chair. I’m expectin' him back, ev’ry minute." Rachel bad “seen about” that reclin ing chair, heiuelf, in tho morning. Bhe analyzed the Simula plot at once. What they would tell Joe at Salisbury’s fol I owe I by the sight of her, would make him quite wise. She sprang down the stops. “Thank ye kindly, Mis My ore,” she Mrs. Farman was wonderfully appar eled in her best black alpaca and a pair of long-flnered white kid gloves. “Don't young folks boat all to mauagel” she said i in a garrulous confidence which embraced the whole wodding assembly. “Seems t’ one time, Joe’n' Rachel didn’t know wot they wanted, so I jes' stepped in V Rook a hold, or they wouldn’t be w’era they air to-day, I always tell ’em I made that match, an' they can’t deny it."— Kate Field’s Washington.

The Facts Ai.ukady Stated Fully Cox- FIRMED—IN TEHVIK.WH WlTII LEADING Physicians Who Treated Quant —TnE Most Marvelous Case in the History of Medi Cal HCienCE. A few Weeks ago an article appeared id tills paper copied from the Albany. N. Y., Journal, giving the particulars of orie of the inost remarkable cures of the 10th centUry. The article was under tho heading “A (Saratoga Co. Miracle,” an 1 excited such widespread comment that another Albiny paper—the Express—detailed a reporter to make a thorough investigation of the state ments appearing in the Journal’s article. The facts ns elicited by the Express reporter are given in the following article, which ap peared iu that paper on April 16th, and makeB one of the moat interesting stories ever related: A few weeks ago there was published in the Albany Evening Journal the story of a most remarkable—indeed so remarkable us to well justify the term “iuiraeulotU”~eUi‘e of a severe case of locomotor ataxia, or creeping paralysis, simply by the use of Pink Pills for Pale People, and, in comply ance with instructions, an Express Reporter ha* been demoting sonic time in a Critical investigation of tho real facts of the case. The story of the wonderful cure of Charles A. Quant, of Galway, Saratoga County, N. Y., os first told in the Journal, has been copied into hundreds if not thousands of other daily ond weekly new-spai»ers UU l has created such a sensation throughout the entire country that it was deemed a duty due ail the. people; and especially the thou sands of similarly aflJ cted, that the state ments of the case as made in the Albany Journal, and copied into so many other newspapers should, if true, ba vermed; or. if false, exposed us an imposition upon public cieduiity. The result of the ExDrese reporter’s id - vestigations aujhoriz.'s him in s tying that the story of Charles A. Quant’s cure of locomotor ataxia by the use of Pink Pills (or Pule People, a popular remedy prepare ! and put up by the Ur. Williami Medicine Company, Morristowii, N. Y., and Brock- rille, Ontario, 18 TRUE, an I that all its statements arc not only justiiio I but verifle \ by the fuller development of tho further facts of tho case. Perhaps the readers of tho Express are not all of them fully familiar with the de tails of this miraculous restoration to health of a man who after weeks and months of treatment by the most skillful doctors In two of tin* best hospitals in tho State rtf New York—tho Roosevelt Hospital in New York City and St. Peter's Hospital in Albany— was dismissed from each as incurable and, because the case was deemed incurable, tho man was denied admission into several oth ers to which application was made in his be half. The story as told by Mr. Quadt him telf and published in the Albany Journal, is as follows: “My name is Charles A. Quant; I am 37 years old; 1 was born in the village of Gal way and excepting while traveling on buai- nese and i*. little while in Amsterdam, have spout my whole lit o here. \ T p to about eight years ago I hud nevt i been sick and was then in perfect health. I wus fully nix feet tall, weighed 18(j pounds and was very strong. For Vi years was traveling sales man for a piano and organ company, and had to do. or at leant did do, a great deal of b^avy lit ting, got my meals very irregularly Hud slept in enough 'spare buds' in coun try houses to freeze nn ordinary man to death, or at least give him the rheum* tism. About eight years ago I begau to feel distress in my stomach, and comulteJ several doctors about it,. They all said it was dyspepsia, and for dyspepsia I was treated by varioun doctors in different places, and took ull tho patent medicines 1 could hear of thatciaimoi to be a euro for dysuepsia. Put 1 .continue 1 to grow grad ually worse for four years. Then I began to have pain in my back and legs and be came conscious that my legs were getting weuk and my step unsteady, and then I staggered when I walked. Having received no benefit from the use of patent modiciues, and feeling that I was constantly growing worse, 1 then, upon advice, began tue use of olectric belts,part* and all the many different kinds of electric appliances I could hear of. and *pent hundreds of dollars lor them, but they did mo no good. (Here Mr. Quant showed the Journal reporter an electric suit oi underwear, lor which he paid $124.) Jin the fall o£ 1866 the doctors advised a c.iange Of climate, so I went to Atlanta, Ga., and acted as agent for the Estey Organ Com pany, While there I took a thorough elec tric treatment, but it. only S'emed to aggra vate my disease, and the only relief I could get from the sharp and distressing p iins was to take morphine. The pain was so in tense at times that it seemed as tnough I could not stand it, and i almost longed for death as the only certain relief. In Septem ber of 1888 my legs gave out entirely and my left eye was drawn to one side, so that I had double sight and was dizzy. My trouble go affected my whole nervous system that I had to give up busiuess. Then l returned to New York ami went to the Roossvelt Hos pital, where for four months 1 was treated by specialists nnd they pronounced my case locomotor ataxia and incurable. After I bad been under treatment by ! Tof. Starr and Dr. Ware lor four months, they told me they had done all they could for me. Then I went to the New York Hospital on Fif teenth street, where, upou examination,they said 1 was incurable and would not take me in. At the Presbyterian Hospital they ex amined me and told me th* same thing. In March, 181)0, I was taken to St. Peter’s Hos pital in Albany, where Prof. H. H. Hun frankly told my wife my case was hopeless; that he could do nothing for moand that she had better take me back home aud save my money. But I wanted to make a trial of Prof. Hun’s famous skill and I remained undor his treatment, for nine weeks, but se cured no benelit. AU this time l ha l been growing worse. I had become entirely paralyzed from my waist down an i had partly lost control of my bands. The pain was terrible; my legs felt as though they were f reoziug and my stomach would uot re tain food, and l felt away to 120 pounds. In the Albany Hospital they putsevontem big burns on my back one day with re I hot irons,and after a few days they put fourteen toole burns on aud treated me with elec tricity, but I got worse rather than better; lost control ot' my bowels and water, and, upon advice of the doctor, who said there was no hope for me, l was brought home, where it was thought that deat h would soon como to relieve me of my sufferings, l^ast September, while in this helpless and suffering condition, a friend of mine in Hamilton, Out., called my attention to the statement of one John Marshall, whose case had been similar to mv own. ami who had been cured by the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. In this case Mr. Mar shall, who is a prominent member of the Royal Templars of temperance, had, after four years of constant treatment by the most eminent Canadian physicians, been pronounced incurable, and paid the flOOO total disability claim allow’ed by the order in such cases. Some months after Mr. Mar Khali began a course of treatment with Ur. Williams’ Pink Pills, and after taking some 16 boxes was fully restored to health. I thought 1 would try them, and my wife sent for two boxes ot the pills, and l took them accorling to the directions on the wrapper on each box.

I cannot speak in too high terms of Dr. Williams’Pink Pills for Pale People, as t know they saved my life after all the doctors had given me up as in curable.’’ Such is tho won lerful story which the Ex press reporter h usuceee led iu securing ver fftcatiou of in ail its details, from the hos pital records where Mr. Quant was treated and from the doctors who ha 1 the case in hand' and who pronounced him incurable. Let it be remembered that all this hospital treatment was two and three years ago. while his cure, by the Use Ot Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills lor Pale People, has beep effected since last September, 18M. So it in beyona a doubt evident that his recovery s wholly dtie to the ose of these famous pills which have been fodrtd to have made such remerk- atde cures in this and other eases.

Starr is house physician of tho Roose velt hospital, situated corner of Ninth avenue and Fifty ninth street. In reply to inquiry he said be remembered the case of Mr. Quant very Well, add treated him some, but that he was chiefly treated an i Udder the more especial care of Dr. Ware. He laid ho regarded this case as he did all cases bt locorriotor ataxia as incurable.

An 1 then said: “Dr. Ware can tell you moro about the cas3 ns Quant was tinder his more personal treat ment. I am surprised, he sail “that the man Is alive, as 1 thought he iniist be dead long ago.” Our reporter found Dr. Edward Ware at his office, No. 162 West Ninety-third street, New York. He said: “I have very distinct recollections of the Quant case. It was a very pronounced case. 1 treate 1 him about fight months. This was in the early sum mer of 1890.

At all events, l am glad the poor fellow is getting well, for hia was a ban case and he was a great sufferer.” Dr. Theodore R.

I will not say (hat it is incurable, out L never knew of a case to get well; but f will say it is not deemed curable by any remedies known to the medical profession. After this successful and confirmatory in- vewtigatlon In New* York, our reporter, Saturday, April 2d, 1892, visited St. Peter’s Hospital, in Albany, corner of Albany and Ferry streets. He had a courteous reception by Sister Mary Philomana. the sister superior of St. Peter’s Hospital, and when told of the object of hia visit sai i she retnem- Lx-Ted tho case of poor Mr. Quant very dis tinctly. Said she: “It was a very distress ing case and excited my sympathies much. Poor fellow, he couldn’t be cured and had to go borne in a terrible condition of hetol s»- ness and suffering.” The house physician,on consulting the records of 8t, Peter’s Hospital, said he found only that Charles A. Quant entered the hospital March 14th, 1890, was treated by Dr. Henry Hun, assisted by Dr. Van Darveer, who was then, 1890, at the head of the hospital, an t taai nis case being deemed not possible of cure, he left the hospital and was taken to his home, as he supposed to die. Such is the full history of this most re markable case of successful recovery from a heretofore supposed incurable disease, au i after all the doctors had given him up, by the biruple use of Dr. Williams Pink Pilts lor Pate People. Truly it is an interesting story of n most miraculous cure of a dreadful disease by tho simple use of this popular vemedv. A further investigation revealed the fact that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are not a patent medicine iu the sense in which that term is generally understood, but are a scientific preparation successfully used in geuera! practice for many years before being offered to the public generally They contain in a condensed form all the elements uecessary to give now life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are an un- fai ing specific for such diseases as locomotor utaxiu, partial paralysis, St- Vitus dance, sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the after effect* of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale aud sallow complexions, that tired feeling resulting from nervous prostration, all diseases depending upou vitiated humors in th-5 blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc. They are also a specific for troubles peculiar to females, such as suppressions, irregulari ties and all forms of weakness.

In the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, over-work or excesses of whatever nature. On further inquiry the writer fouud that these pills are manufactured bv the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Brockviile, Ontario, and Morristown, N. Y., and are sold in boxes (never in loose form by the dozen or hundred) at 60 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, and may be had of all drug gist* or direct by mail from Dr. Williams Medicine Company, from either address. The price at which these pills are sold makes a course of tref trnent comparatively inex pensive as compared with other remedies or medical treatment. ^ Two young city-bred women, (laugh ers of a promineut wholesale merchant m 3au Francisco, Cal., named Lowenstieu, ire living on and working a land claim ii the State of Washington, between Padlock and Port Ludlow.
