Making Good.
Thorp Is no way of niakinp lustlnr,

Pierre's. modli.diios woll exemplify tills,

dec tides of popularity, arc numbered liv

A good, honest, square-deni medicine of
known composition j< Ur. Pierce's (ioiden
Medical Discovery, h still enjojs an im
mense sale, while most of the prepara
tions that have como into prominence in
the earlier period of Its popularity have
' go no by tin* board ” nnd aro never niorn
heard of. There must lie some reason for
this long-time popularity and that is to
lie found in its superior merits. When
once given a fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver and blood affections. Its supe
rior curative qualities are soon manifest;
hence it has survived and grown in pop
ular favor, while scores of less meritorious
articles have suddenly Hashed into favor
for a brief period and then been as soon
forgotten.
1*or a torpid liver with its attendant
indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, per
haps dizziness, foul breath, nnstv coated
tongue, with bitter taste, loss of appetite,
with distress after eating, nervousness
and debility, nothing is so good as Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It’s
an honest, square-deal medicine with all
its ingredients printed on bottle-wrapper
— no secret, no hocus*pocus humbug,
therefore don’t accept a substitute that
the dealer may possibly make a little big
ger profit. Insist on your right to have
what you call for.
Don't buy Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip
tion expecting it to prove a "cure-all.” It
is only advised for woman’s special ail
ments. It makes weak women strong and
sick women well. Less advertised than
some preparations sold for like purposes,
its sterling curative virtues still maintain
its position in the front ranks, where it
stood over two decades ago. As an in
vigorating tonic and strengthening nerv
ine it is unequaled. It won’t satisfy those
who want "booze,” for there is not'a drou
of alcohol in it.
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets, the (trial-
nal Little Liver Pills, although the first
pill of their kind in the market, still lead
and when once tried are ever afterwards
in favor. Easy to take as candy—one to
throe* a dose. Much imitated but never
equaled.

“You are very much in love with
him, dour, aren’t you?.” Mrs. Brevort
inquired, not without a certain doubt
ful note in her tone, which seemed to
hint that sutdi possibly might not be
tile case.
The girl who stood by the window,
looking out at the uneven pavements
of the Roman street, turned slowly
and smiled. In that smile were weari
ness nnd subtle understanding and pa
tient resignation.
“Yes, I am very much in love with
him. Aunt Elinor,” she said in a col
orless voice, as if she were saying the
words more because they were expect
ed of her than for any other reason.
Mrs. Brevort smiled her open ap
proval. The little frown of doubt
which for the past few moments had
wrinkled her brow suddenly disap
peared. She crossed the room to the
girl’s side and threw an arm about
her.
“Of course, dearie,” she cooed, “your
happiness is my first, I might almost
say my only, concern. No one realizes
better than I the portent of this stop—
that all your future, all your lifelong
happiness depends upon it. No one, I
think you’ll admit, too, Is more averse
to the majority of these marriages
than I am, but the duke is so utterly
different from all the other eligible
men we have met. He Is not seeking
your money, dear, for he is immensely
wealthy in his own right. He is an
upright, honest, splendid type of an—
more like our own men in America. I
think, than any one we have seen.
Isn’t that your impression of him?”
“Yes,” said the girl In the same col
orless voice.
Mrs. Rrevort’s pale face grew rather
eager. “Somehow I have felt from the
first that your destinies were linked,
yours nnd his.” said she, “but when
he talked with me this afternoon I
gave him no definite answer. I let him
understand that the matter rested pri
marily with you; that it was your hap
piness that was at stake.
“He didn't seem quite to understand
my attitude at first, but he was per
fectly charming about it, as he is in
everything. He said I was to speak to
you and that he would call for me this
afternoon at 4 in the road car, and
while we went out to the aqueduct 1
could give him my final decision, or,
rather, yours.”
The girl had turned again to the
window. She was looking abstracted
ly at the passing crowd in the street
below. Her brow was furrowed by a
little disfiguring frown. Her lips were
set tightly together. Her eyes were
troubled.
“So 1 suppose I am to give hint a fa
vorable answer, am I not?” Mrs. Ilre-
vort suggested tentatively.
The girl was silent. The troubled
look In her eyes grew more pronounc
ed. Her aunt watched her narrowly
and with growing impatience.
“Peggy, dear. I asked you a ques
tion.” she reminded her niece. “Is it a
favorable answer I am to give?”
The girl shrugged her dainty shoul
ders. “Yes, yes; oh. yes!” she said
hurriedly. “It doesn’t matter.” Her
voice suddenly choked. “Nothing mat
ters 1”
Mrs. Brevort elevated her brows.
“Really, Peggy”— she began chidingly.
But the girl turned swiftly and left
the room, waving back the older wom
an. who stnrted to follow her. Some
thing like a smothered sob sounded as
the door closed behind her.
Mrs. Brevort looked rather angry for
a moment. Then she recovered her
usual composure and smiled. But there
was something distinctly unpleasant in
that smile.
She glanced at the bronze clock tick
ing unobtrusively on the mantel. It
pointed to half after 3. She went to a
desk near the front window and from
a drawer drew out a bundle of letters.
They were all directed in the same
hand—Peggy’s hand. And they were
all addressed to Mr. William Hale, at
some outlandish Spanish sounding
town in Ecuador, South America.
Mrs. Brevort smiled again. It had
cost her a pretty penny to circumvent
the mailing of those letters, but there
are many itching palms In Rome, and
what good money will not accomplish,
if it is judiciously placed. Is not worth
accomplishing.
An open fire burned dully in the
grate beneath the mantel. Mrs. Bre
vort stepped briskly over to it and fed
the bundle of letters to the flames.
She watched grimly until there was
nothing left of them save a few gray
white ashes.
Then from another drawer she took
out another bundle of letters. They
were thick letters, all of them. The
sprawling superscriptions were all for
Peggy, and they were postmarked with
the name of the Spanish town in Ecua
dor.
Other itching Roman palms had been
soothed in the conventional way to
bring those epistles into Mrs. Rrevort’s
possession.
These, too, she consigned to the
grate, watched them burn and then
arrayed herself for her appointment
with the duke.
At precisely 4 he came in the road
car. She descended the stairs, greeted
him effusively, and together they whirl
ed off toward the aqueduct.
Scarcely had Mrs. Brevort taken her
departure when there canto to the ho
tel a brisk, broad shouldered young
man. Unmistakably he was American,
and unmistakably he had been endur
ing recently all the discomforts of
continental travel when such travel
nec< ssliates haste.
lie glanced at the register, saw
thereon a certain name ami heaved a
mighty stub of relief, but even as he
seai’ lied his pockets for ids < nfdease
the owner of the name that had caus
ed bis recent sigh came tripping down
the stairs arrayed for a walk through
the autumn streets, and. turning
around, the young man stood staring
open mouthed at Peggy In all her
glory.
The girl's eyes. too. lighted suddenly.
She gave a little gasp of surprise. In
an Instant the young man was beside
her, and both her hands were in his
own.
“Peggy, Peggy!” ho was saying
breathlessly.
“Billy,” she was saying in a low,
shaken voice, “where on earth did you
come from?”
In a masterful manner ho led her to
the street. Once outside they both be-
gnn talking ns fast as they could.
“Not a word from you all this time,”
he declared, “not one single, solitary
word. I couldn’t stand it any longer.
I left the bridge building down there
and my chances for eternal fame and
fortune with it, all In the hands of
Johnson, and came over here to learn
the worst. I even had to cable north
to Daniels to find out where you were.”
“Billy, what do you moan?” she
asked In unbelief. “1 have written
and written nnd never had one single
answer from you.”
“Eh? What's this?” said he. “I've
written every day of my life. You
haven’t got them?” Ilis eyes grew
suddenly dark. “Where’s that precious
aunt of yours?”
And suddenly Peggy remembered In
the midst of her new found happiness
just where her aunt was.
“Oh, heavens, Billy!” she said. “Why
didn't you come liefore?”
“Why?”
“Why?” she repeated. “Why, Indeed!
Aunt Elinor is out motoring this after
noon with the Duke of Selena. She
has gone with him to tell him IT/ mar
ry him. I thought—I thought—when
you were silent—when I didn’t hear
from you”—
Ills teeth came together with a click.
He faced her there In the Roman
street, with the Roman sunshine flood
ing it with mellow warmth.
“To tell him you’ll marry him!” he
repeated. “Peggy, you’re not going to,
are you?”
She looked at him archly. “It’s the
only offer I’ve had recently,” she said
in mocking happiness.
“You’ll have another right away,”
said he, with determination, “one that
I dare you to turn down.” he ndded,
with a boyish laugh.
“But the duke,” she said breathless
ly. “I’m probably engaged to him by
thjs time. Aunt Elinor wastes no
time.”
“I’ll attend to the duke and your
aunt, too,” said he grimly. “What
time will they return?”
“Almost any minute now,” said she.
“Come, let’s go back. We mustn’t miss
them, must we, Billy?”
A Grateful Bov.
A gift always opens the door of an
Eskimo heart, declares Knud Rasmus
sen in “The People of the Polar
North,” and then tells the story of a
little orphan boy whom he ran across
In his travels.
I had a little pocketknife in my
pocket, and I presented it to him In
order to establish our acquaintance.
It was assuredly the first time In his
life that the boy had ever had such an
experience ns to receive a present. I
assured him that I really meant It.
Then, without a change of expression,
he snntched the knife out of my linnd
nnd ran off. I did not think that 1
should see any more of him nnd was
just going Into our tent when he came
running up with a piece of walrus
meat, which he pressed into my hand.
“Thou gavest, see; I give, too,” said
he, and his face shone with grease and
pride. But from that day forth we
were friends.
IC.ajoranguaq had no relatives at all
to look after him. He was everybody’s
drudge and slept in an old ruined
building, where he said he was very
comfortable. He could not have been
more than ten years old at the outside,
although there was little of the child
about him, but after lie came to live
in our tent we noticed that lie begnu
to sing when alone, and after awhile
he would beat time to his singing on
a little tin box, so In spite of n life of
neglect he got a little joy now and
then.
An Essay on Man.
Man that Is born of woman Is small
potatoes and few in a hill. He rises
up today and flourishes like a rag
weed, and tomorrow or next day the
undertaker hath him. He goeth forth
in the morning warbling like a lark
and is knocked out in one round nnd
two seconds. In the midst of life he Is |
In debt, and the tax collector pursues j
him wherever be goeth. The banister j
of life is full of splinters, nnd he slid- j
eth down with considerable rapidity. '
He cometh home at eventide and meet- j
eth the wheelbarrow in bis path. It ;
riseth up and sraiteth him to the earth
and fillet!) upon him nnd runneth one
of its legs into his ear. In the gentle
springtime lie putteth on bis summer
■•lotlies, and n blizzard strike’ll him
far from homo and filleth him with \
■ cuss words and rheumatism. He buy- ,
eth a watchdog, and when ho cometh
home from the club the watchdog
treoth him nnd sltteth near him until
rosy morn. lie goeth to the race
course and betteth his money on the
brown mare, and the bay gelding with
a blaze face wirmeth. He marrieth a
red headed heiress with a wart on her
nose, and the next day the parent an
cestor goeth under with a crash nnd
great liabilities and cometh home to
live with his beloved son-in-law.

manded an intimate friend, who dared
complain of the finding.
“Billy,” said Judge Tuley, solemnly,
“I took that evidepce to Arkansas with
me and studied it two weeks. Then I
brought it home and spent ten days
more on it. Then I said in my decision:
” ‘So far as the evidence shows, the
defendant is an upright and honorable
Christian gentleman.’
“ ‘So far as the evidence shows,’ ”
repeated the jurist, slowly and with
emphasis. Then he leaned forward in

vindication:
“But, Billy, I didn’t say I believed

The inspector was examining a school
grade, and ail the class had been spe
cially told beforehand by their master,
“Don’t answer unless you are almost
certain your answer is correct.”
History was the subject.
“Now, tell me, 1 ’ said the inspector,
“who was the mother of our great
Scottish hero, Robert Bruce.”
He pointed to the top boy, then round
the class. There was no answer. Then
at last the heart of the teacher of the
class leaped with joy. The boy who
was standing at the very foot had held
up his hand.
“Well, my boy,” said the inspector,
encouragingly, “who was she?”
‘‘Please, sir, Mrs. Bruce.”
