Aggravated Piles
ITCHING, BLEEDING.
Women are particularly subject to piles or
hemorrhoids before and after child -birth, be-
cause of pressure on the portal vein which
interferes with the circulation of the blood.
Many thousands of women have proven the
azrcacy of Dr. Chase's Ointment under such
circumstances.
The torture of piles is almost beyond en.
distance, but it matters net whether they are
of the itching, bleeding or protruding variety.

away. Lord George lighted a cigar
and, putting his arm within that of
Beecot, strolled down the road, "Come

"No, thank you," answered Petit po-
litely; "1 must get home.'"
"But I wish you'd corn . I hate be-

"Well," said Beecot, thinking he
might say a word In season to this
young fool, "1 don't gamble."
"Oh, you cry down that, do you?"
"Well, I think it's foolish."
"It Is," animated Lord George frank-
ly, "infernally foolish. And Hoy bas

This was dangerous
ground, and
Paul shied. "I really can't say," he
said coldly. "I don't play cards.'"
"But what do you know of Hay?"
asked sandal.
"Only that he was at school with
me at Torrington. We met by acci-
dent the other day, and be asked me to
dinner."
"Torrington? Yes, I had a brother at
that school once," said Lord George,
"but you and Hay wouldn't get on
well together, I elteuld think You're
straight, and he's"—
"You forget we have been dining
with him," said Paul quickly.
"What of that? I've dined often and
have paid pretty dearly for the privi-
lege. I must have lost at least five
thousand to him within the last few
months."
"In that case I should advise you to
pity cards no more. The remedy is
easy," said Paul dryly.
"It islet so easy to leave oft cards,"
rejoined Sendai gloomily. "I'm that
fond of gambling that I only seem to
live when I've got the cards or dice
in my hand. I suppose it's like dram
drinking,"
"If you take ray advice, Lord George,
you'll give up card playing"
"'With Hay, do you mean?" asked
the other shrewdly
"With any one. I know nothing

"In Hantst" said Paul, feeling he
was en the verge of a discovery.
"Yes. Have you been there?"
"No, but I have heard of the place.
There's a hotel there called the Red
Pig, Which I thought" --
"Ha!" cried young Sandal, stopping
again, and with such ie shout that pass-
ersby thought he was drunk. "I re-
member the name. The Red Plg! A.
woman called Krill kept that."
"She can hardly be the same," said
Paul, not wishing to betray the lady.
"No; I guess not. She'd hardly have
the cheek to sit down with me if she
did. But Krill! Yes, I remember
my aunt, you know,"
"Your aunt?"
"Yes." said Sandal Impatiently; "she
was murdered or committed suicide in
that Red Pig piece—Rachel Sandal,
with her unlucky opals."
"Her unlucky opals! What do you
mean?'
"Why, she had a serpent set with
opals she wore as a brooch, and it
brought her bad luck,"
CHAPTER. RVI;
T was close upon midnight
when Paul reached his gar-
ret, Sandal drove him in a
hansom as far as Piccadilly
eines, and from that place Beecot
walked through Oxford street to
BIoomsbury. He had not been able to
extract further information of any Im-
portance from the young lord. It ap-
peared that Lady Rachel §andai, in
love with an inferior, had quarreled
with her father and had walked to
Christchurch one night, with the inten-
tion of joining the man she wished to
marry in London. But the night was
stormy, and Lady Rachel was a frail
woman. She took refuge In the Red
Pig, intending to go the next morning,
but during the night she was found
strangled in the bedroom she had hired.
Sandal could give no details, as the
events happened before he was born,
and he had only heard scraps of the
dreadful story.

Wei woman le the same?"
"It's hardly likely," said Patti men-
daciously, "How cool'! a woman who
kept a snail public hoose beconae and-
denly rich?"
"True," answered Lor4 George as
they stopped in the circus, "and she'd
have let on she knew about my name
had She anything to eo with the mat-
ter. Ali the same, P11 ask her."
"Do so," said Paul, stepping out of
the cab. He was perfectly satisfied
that Mrs. Rrill was quite equal to de-
ceiving Sandal. The wonder wars that
she bad not held her peace to him
about the Iced Pig.
"You won't oome on to my club?"
asked Sandal, leaning out of the cab.
"No, thank you," replied Paul. "Good
night," Arid he walked away.
Tice taet is Beecot wished to put
on paper all that he had heard that
night and send it to Hurd. As soon
as he reached his attic he set to work
and wrote out a detailed account of the
evening.
"You might find out if Lady Rachel
committed suicide or whether she was
strangled by some one else," ended
13eecot. "Certainly the mention of the
serpent brooch Is curloue. Thismay
be the event to Norman's past life
Which led him to change his name."
Paul wrote much more and thea
went out to post the letter, It was
after midnight when he did, so there
was not much chance of Hurd getting
the letter before the second or third
post the next day. But Paul felt that
he had done his duty and had sup-
plied the information as speedily as
possible, so be went to sleep with a
quiet mind, in spite of the excitement
of the evening. But next morning he
was unable to sit down to his desk as
usual and felt disinclined to go to the
newspaper otiiee, so he walked. to Jubi-
leetown to see how Sylvia was getting
along. Deborah met him at the gate.
"Well, I never, Mr. Beeeotl" said Mrs.
Tawsey, with her red -arms akimbo In

BE A CHARMING WOMEN
Yon never caw a beautiful woman
who didn't have beautiful hair. The
charms of a beautiful woman lie in her
hair. Many women do not realize the
attraotions they possess because they do
not give proper attention to the care of
their hair,
The women of the "400" are famed
for their beansy, not because their facial
features are superior to those ot other
women, but because they know how to
keep young, by supplying vigor, lustre,
and strength to the hair.
