CHAPTER XXV.
Darnley sIttiag in her
charming little drawing -room,
which, all dismantled as it had been
whou she had departcd for Nice,
yet looked cosy and pretty in the
afternoon dusk and the fireglow.
She was restiilg back laNntiously,
glancing through a pile of letters
which awaited her, one of which
was from Lady Burton, giving .74,
long and exultant account of dear
Xaude'a engan,einent, to the young
'Sir Richard Bootbby, one if the

,eontraeting her smooth, hareltanne
browa.
'`.1fter all, brains do riot mean
everything; if one's children arc

It had been a bitter blow to Mrs.
:Darnley that her son should: have
been so utterly crushed by NMI**
Hantikan's apparent falaeness and
her speedy marriage, and 344 her
heart there was a strong Wave Of
Jealousy to strengthen the dislike

And yet an uncomfortable ex-

ley's cold, haughty face as she said
this to herself, an expression which
deepened hit° something- almost
iikc consternation, as the door was
opened at that moment and ber
maid announced:
"'Mrs. Crawshaav."
Mrs. Darnley put down her tea
cup with a hand that trembled
slightly, then rose to her feet.
"Mrs. Crawshaw I" she repeated,
as if doubting her ears; then suave-
ly, "This is indeed a surprise! To

Nancy flung back her thick veil;
her face was vary pale, but calm.
"I wish to speak to you on a
very important subject," she an-
swered, quietly; "I shall detain

Mrs. I)a3'nley spoke coldly and
resentfully, but her hands moved'
Aeryously, all the same, as she re-

A mist rose before Nancy's eyes,
she paused. Then she said in a
low voice:
"Your son has nothing to fear;

Mrs. Darnley drew a ,deep

She had one more card left, she
must play it without delay ; it was
a cruel, a wicked act, but there
was no otherescape from the net

hand was crushed a telegram.

FALSE TillNDER.
A Symptom of Stomach Trouble
Corrected by'Good Food.
There is with some forms of stomach
trcuble, an abnormal craving for
food which is frequently mistaken
fo1,a, "good appetite." A. lady
teabber writes from Carthage,
Mo.., to explain how with good food
she dealt with this sort of hurtful
hunger.
"I have taught school for fifteen
years, and. up to nine years ago
had =rood. average health. Nine
years ago, however, my health ba-
zan to fail, and continued to grow
worse steadily, in spite of doctor's
prescriptions, and everything I
could do. During all this time my
appetite continued good, only the
more I ate the more I wanted to
eat—I was always hungry.
"The first symptoms of my
breakdown were a distressing
nervousness and a loss of flesh.
The nervousness grew so, bad that

tration. Then came stomach trop-

little if any value as plant food.
It is best therefore, when a
high grade article is desired, to.
use sulphate or muriate of potash.
