Samuel O. Stone.
Grass Lake, Mich., Dec. 28,1894.
X hare been troubled with heart disease 15
years or more. Most of the time I was so
bad It was not safe for me to po out alone,
as dizzy spells would cause failing. I had
severe palpitation, short ness of breath and
sudden pains that rendered me helpless. All
physicians did for me was to advise keeping
quiet. In August last I commenced taking
Dr. Miles" Kew Heart Cure,
and before I had finished tho first bottle I
found the medicine was a God-send. I have
now used four bottles in all and am feeling
entirely well. lam 73 years of age and have
held a grudge against patent medicines all
my life, but I will not allow this to prevent
giving my testimony to the great cure your
valuable remedy has wrought In me. Ido
this to show my appreciation of I.'r. Miles’
New Heart Cure. SA MITEL O. STONE.

KO-IIANA-SAN,
She was a little, winsome, light
hearted Geishua, with a elett in her
rounded chin nd evonescent dimples,
Citpid’s pitfalls, conning and going in
her soft cheeks, whereby she hud earn
ed the name of “Sne-who-smiles.’’
In nil her 18 years of lmppy, dan
cing life she had never known a troub
ie, never felt the approach of sorrow,
except in the tender disguis** of a lin
er's plaint, either real or imaginary
or the one of the poems she could
chant sb pre tily to her sannsen.
Yet all the sultry hours of the fore
i oon she had sat at die window of
her own small apartment lost in a rev
arie, with a pensive expression on her
usually sparkling face.
Her small head, weighted vvilli its
massive loops and coils of shining
black hair and decorated with many
a fanciful eo b and pin, rested on the
ledge, and the sweet dark ayes looked
wistfully toward the corner of the mu
row street—so narrow that by leaning
far out you might have touched hands
with your opposite neighbor. There
had been sounds of anisic and of
rhythmic footfalls from the adjacent
houses, glimpses of fluttering fans gav
ripples of laughter and snathes nt
song, showing that the Geishas were
practicing their accomplishments, but
Ivo hana-san had neither stirred nor
replied to any passing salutations.
Her thoughts were engrossed with
the memory of the handsome English
man whom she had seen not once,
but thrice, lately and again last night
at the house of Takunara, whither
she had been sui t to amuse the guest.
The recollectiou filled her mind of
a pair of bold, blue eyes glancing at
her with amused admiration, of the
flushing of white teeth in a merry
sn’.le under the sweep of a fair mus
(ache, of sunburned hands clapping
m applause,at the close of her favor
ite chrysanthemum dance and of ex
clatnalions in a voice whose intonation
seemed to her mors musical than that
of her compatriots-
“Bravo!’’ she murmured to herself.
“Encore!”—she could sc.Arcely luau
a”e (lie queer little foreign words—‘T
wonder what ha meant? Thev were
words of kindness, I am sure.”
Stie rose, and spreding out her fan,
with its invalid ivory sticks and gay
device <>f gauzy flowers and birds,
slowly Bogan the weaving paces and
waving hands of the maple dunce he
h ad liked so well.
Kn hanasan knew that its graccfel
movements showed her at her very
best.
The willowy, slender figure sway
ing so daintily in its kimono of pale
brocade, the tiny feet stepping to and
fio, the small, [dump hands were all
displayed to advantage, and, besides
an innate grace and refinement, sha
was also possessed of the highest or
der of Japanese beauty.
No Geisha had longer or finer hair,
or a more dazzling whiteness of skin
to contrast with its dark beauty, or
lips that were more like a cherry
when it glows in tha sqn.
And as she s ood there, her black
eves gleaming from Le ween half
clo-ed lids, the languid mischief :n
them accentuated by toe upward curl
of dark lashes at the corners, she
looked as seductive a little ni ci as
man’s heart c ,u;d desire
A ([iiick step in the stree firm and
strong footed, drew her quickly to tho
window, and, half involuntarily, she
J snatched a lotus bud that res ed in
' the folds of her obi and leaned out
with it in lier hand.
Someone passing looked up, and,
l with a smile of recogniti on lifted a
i straw hat and revealed a thick crop
of waving, brown hair.
Ko hana-san’s heart b at fast be
neath the embroidery of her han-zeri
and the dimples appeared for the first
time that day.
“Koinban-wau!” (“Good evening!”)
| said the handsome stranger.
‘O me wa noshi no jro ni kirel!”
: (“Your eyes are as beautiful as the
stars!”) The dimples deepened, and

trayed encouragement
But the stranger’s vocabulary iu
the Japanese tongue was limited.
He was an artist by inclination,
not by profession, roving in search of
novel scenes and stray bits of color,
and he was seized with a desire to
sketch then and there the attractive
picture in its bamboo frame ab>>ve
him.
He took out his book anil a pencil
and leaning against the opposie wall,
with a sign to her to remain still, be
gan rapidly touching in outlines.
Several pretty forms and faces ap
peared at the surrmndiag windows,
and a little murmur of pleasurable in
terest, with smothered laughs, floated
round them, but Paul Verulam sketch
on, and Ko-hana-san still preserved
her careless attitude and gracious
smile, one little band, from which dan
gled the lotus bud, drooping, with
studied negligence, over the sill.
Presently he held up the sketch-
Slio looked and nodded approval, and
then, smitten with a sudden shyness
wholly new and unaccountable toiler
withdrew from tho window, but not
befoie she had dropped into his out
stretched hand the lotus.
She caught a glimpse, as he turned
of his putting tlio flower into the but
tonhole of his coat, and then she wait
ed till the sound of his steps diminish
ing told her he was near the end of
the street.
Then she looked o t again and
softly called, “Sayonara!” (“Good
by!”), and lie, glancing round, raised
his hat in farewell.
But, alas, as ho did so the flawer
fell from his coat, and unheeding lus
loss, ho passed on turned the corner
and was gone.
He had set his foot unwittingly on
the hud where it lay in the road and
trampled it into the dust.
Poor little half blown flower ! its
life had been sweet, but short.
lvo hiuia-san pressed both her hands
to her breast with a quivering sigh,
and the first passionate tears of tier
life, tfie ttie bittersweet baptism of
nasceet love, gathered iri her beautiful
eyes arid fell slowly down her cheeks
She realized with a thrill that was
half joyful and half terrified that his
love, if which she had heard, but
which had never touched the exper
ience either of herself or of sister
Geishas, had entered into her heart
and that henceforth both her laughter
and her tears would be subject to his
sovereign will and power.
Three times had the moon waxed
anil waned since tho night when Ko
liana-sau learned how to weep, and in
that time she had laughed lar more
often than she hud wept.
For had not the stranger, Paul Veru
lain, succumbed to her grace and fas
cination and was she not envied of
all the Geishas in Tokyo for his
sake '?
lie had oven bought her freedom
by payment of nearly 2,000 yen and
had given her a little house of her
own, in which she was weary of ar
ranging the pretty trifles ho collected
for her—quaint screens and scrolls
and fans, bits of cuiious carving or
pieces of embroidered satin exquisite
m workmanship and color.
it was sidl a wonderful thing that
he should notice her, should care to
pfc-ase Eer, this stalwart young Ell.
giishruun who seamed as a god.
To her their companionship had
been a glunpstf of paradise,
And to him ? To him it had been
as an afternoon spent with the lotus
eaters in the midst of a toilsome jour,
j ney; an hour ot repose snatched from
I the burden and hurry of life; an inter
lude of delicious, dreamy music, shin
iog like a gem in a rough setting of
daily common aces and discords an

voiced Japanese girl—and lie had
loitered in Tokyo week after week
or her sake, or rather for the sake
lie amusement he found in her so
ci iv.
It pleased him fo watch her child
like delight in her i e.v surroundings,
and his sense of beauty was satisfied
by her graceful dancing.
She had many small accomplish
ments, too with which she had been
wont to beguile his leisure.
Then one afternoon ne said to her
with assumed carelessness :
“Ko-hana sail, would you like to
stay here when I am gone, or would
you rather go to your frieuds again?’’
She paused m her occupation of
embroidering a little panel with silk
and beads to.look at him for a mo
ment, and then said tranquilly in her
own sweet sounding language :
“I will stay here until you come
back. Where are you going?”
“But lam not coming back,’’he said
more earnestly. “I am only a bird of
passage, you know, little jewel, and I
must go home now. My holiday is
over. They are waiting for me over
the water.”
She gazed very steadily at him in
deep thought then laying her hand
on his arm :
“Paul,” she said, “take me with you
I will go.”
“I cannot do that, my pearl,” he
answered. “It is impossible.”
•‘Why?’ she demanded.
“Because”—he hesitated—“because
Ko-hana san, we do not travel about
with our friends in that manuor. It
would not do.”
“But I will be your wife,” she said.
“Then it will do quite well.”
His wile! This little Japanese
dancing girl ! How could bo explain
to her, since she not understand it for
herself?
“You love me,” she said very softly
bending iharor to him.
Ho had given to her the caressing,
tender affection that one gives to a
pretty child who confides in one and
amuses one nt the same moment.
He had stooped to gather a wild

side—hut love!
II is aspiration were for an ideal—a
blossom growing far out of his reach;
a bird singing on the top of a distant
tree, not one flying helplessly in his
path; a star shining above him in the
azure, not its reflection in the shimmer
ot a pool at his feet.
Yet he had no thought of unkind
ness. lie had not imagined that the
dawn of anew soul had come into the
wistful eyes regarding him.
lie took her hand very tenderly in
his.
“Ko-hana-san,” he said, “you would
not be contented with my people.
You must stay with your own friends
in your own country and be happy,
and you must forget me, for I am not
worthy of a single tear from those
bright eyes.”
But she pleaded with a passionate

Mothers
Anxiously watch declining health of
their daughters. So many are cut off
by consumption in early years that
there is real cause for anxiety. In
the early stages, when not beyond
the reach of medicine, Hood’s Sarsa
parilla will restore the quality and
quantity of the blood and thus give
good health. Read the following letter:
“It Is but just to write about my
daughter Corn, aged 19. She was com
pletely run down, declining, had that tired
feeling, and friends said she would not
live over three months. She had a bad
Cough
and nothing seemed to do her any good.
I happened to read about Hood’s Sarsapa
rilla and had her give it a trial. From the
very first dose she began to get better.
After taking a few bottles she was com
pletely cured and her health has been the
best ever since.” Mrs. Addie Peck,
12 Railroad Place, Amsterdam, N. Y.
“I will say that my mother has not
stated my case in as strong words as I
would have done. Hood’s Sarsaparilla
has truly cured me and I am now well.”
