T Was very hot in the carriages of the
IPullman train. The windowe of the
drewiug-rome ;seethes seemed to be
hermetically melee to their frames.
Denslow threw plea hie afternoon
paper and wheeled about in his chair,
eeekeug an avenue of eecepe from the
0 Buie of suffocation that was °mime-
ing him,
Ile rose and began walking through the
carriages. It hed occurred to him that
possibly the owilt movement of the train
would suole scene of the air back on the last
platform ; enough, at any rate, to cool him
off for a mcanent or two.
It wee early in Jaly. Denslow had juat
returned from a two yearoe stey in Paris,
startieg there a branch business for his
father.
4' Your aunt is at the seaside," the letter
had told him, when he met him at the
Station. "She is not well and has gone
down there With her 'need. She is very
anxiou a to Sea you, a,nd I promised that I
would • nggeat to you to run down and stay
few deem before you settle down here."
Mr. R,oslyn had taken the mother's piece
to Huge Denslow when he was 6. The
young man felt that he owed her both
affection and reaped, and so he had :set off
by th 1.,54 train the next afternoon.
" tea Blyehewaya can hold over for a few
days," he told himself.
,
The winter before he lied gone abroad, he
had met Agnes Blytheway at a danoe. She
had invited him to call, and he had enjoyed
the vi. its at her b.ouse exceedingly. The
interreption of his friendship, caused by his
depart are for Paris, was a source of deeper
regret to him than he cared to admit even
to himself. If he had known Agnes longer,
he might have asked permieelon to corres-
pond; as it was, he felt that their intimacy
was only just beginning when his absence
came to break it off.
"She may be out of town next week,"
he was telling himself now; and at that
Very instant ne caught 'sight of her in the
rear coach, which he had just entered.
She was fatting hint, but did not see him.
Her eyes were fixed on the face of a man
who sat in the adjoining chair, and who
was talking with her. Denslow was com-
pelled to step aside at this point for an
instant. A small child was walking down
the carriage toward him, its nurse close
behind it. As Denslow waited for the two
to pass, he overheard a woman's voice,
just in front of him, remark to a companion,
"01 course, they're bride and groom,
Sadie."
The speaker was looking straight at
Agnes. Denslow caught at the chair -back,
to steady himself. eare wondered whether
People out, but they were none of the ex-
oursion class.
The etrended, ship was retiehed in due
course, Mrs. Roslyn left her chair, and
gave her tirm to leer nephew. The youth
who delivered tho looter() was even droller
than Densl ow had expected to tind him,
"Now, Hugh," sale hia aunt, after they
had been through the after•oabin, " Tel
sit here, and I want you to go clown into
the forecaetle where° the !tenors eleep. They
tell me it is worse than prieon."
In his present state of mind, Denslow did
net feel an intereet in anything, but after
lingering to be presented to a friend whet
bad just come aboerd and wee voluneeered
to stay with leirs. Roslyn, he went forward
and ()limbed down into the steerage, where
two or three sightseers were already ass
tembled with the guide.
et was a dismal hole, and Denelove felt
grimly that it was an appropriate spot in
which he met Agnes, under the oirourn-
stancee. For here she was standing beide
the man who had been with her in the
train, listening with an only half sup-
pressed smile to the droning tones of the
' lecturer."
"Why, Mr. Den.slow," ahe exclaimed,
putting out her hand, "1 thought Isaw yon
in the train yesterday, but I was not sure 1
I imagined you were ball in Paris. I am
ever so glad to see you. Dick," She added,
turning to her compaeion'" permit me to
present Mr. Denslow-Mr.Cheeter. When
did you get back ?"
She wets overwhelmingly charming, cor-
dial, pretty, everything that goes to make
a woman attractive. The two years that
had intervened since Denslow had seen her
last had served to crown with completeness
the budding graces that had then only
begun to captivate him. He now felt him-
self to be her slave. A recklessness quite
foreign to his nature took possesaion of him.
She seemed heartily glad to see him, even
if she had married somebody else. He
would show that he was juse as glad. He
smiled down into her eyes, as he answered
her question:
"1 got back two days ago, I wish now
that I heel never gone."
He wondered if she understood what he
meumt. He thought she must, for even by
the faint light that stole done the hatch-
way he could see the color deepen slightly
in her cheeks. He looked round to see
what impression his daring had made on
Mr. Chester. But the latter had stepped
over to the side of the lecturer, who had
suddenly found himself with an audience
quite inattentive to his remarks.
"Didn't you have a pleasant time?"
Agnes looked down and began to draw
invisible figures on the planking with the
tip of her parasol as she put the qu.estion.
I can't honestly say that I did. I
was thinking too much of other times."
Denslow scarcely felt that it was himself

countrymen ! Who blemes Mre. Turner

find no way out of her misery but absolute
separation and coneequent ecancial and
ridicale ? Evidently she knows nothing of
the philosophy of snoring, or she might
have reduced her husband to silence long
ago.
It is a pity we don't learn a few lessons
from the original inhabitante o thie contio
nent and profit by them. Who ever heard
an Indian anore ? H Indians etever snore,
why should the pale face? I'll tell you
why. Imitates have frorn the beginnmg
lived and slept in the open air. Snoring
simply means sleeping with the mcuth open
-a most unhealthy te
as well as hideous cu
tone, the proper sieve for air being the
note. •For Indians to breathe through the
mouth would be to offer a receptacle for
many an unwholesome guest, as well US to
wara the enemy of their presence. To guard
against such evil e Indians are taught to
Jeep their mouths closed from earliest in-
fancy. Many a time I've watched Indian
mothers close their babies' mouth after
putting them to sleep. Habit finally be-
comes second nature; hence the Indian is
the most silent of animals.
How many white mothers know whether
their children breathe well or ill? lbw
many take the pains to teach their off-
spring the office of the nose as compared
with that of the mouth? How many are
intelligent enough to realize that the dif-
ference between letting a child eleep open-
mouthed and close-mouthed is the differ-
ence between a nuisance and decent peace?
If hir. Turner's mother had been a squaw
his wife would heve had no ground of
complaint againet hini, &toe there ' would
have been one divorce less to record.
Is it too late to offer a suggestion to this
unhappy pair? It is difficult to teach old
dogs new tricks, though it is easy to nine-
zle any kind of a dog, old or young. Why
can't Mr. Turner be muzzled when he re-
tires at night? The apparatus could be
tem:lily devised, and in all probability might
be dispensed with in Ulna. By all means
let Mr. Turner be muzzled.
Now that I'm in a suggestive frame of
mind, I appeal to George M. Pullman to in-
voke the genius who will invent such a gag
as will silence forevermore, not only Tur-
ner, but the maddening chorus which mur-
ders sleep on board the Pullman oars. Then,

was certainly a strange feeling at his hearb.
He had nob realized till that moment how
much he oared for Agnes Blytheway. And
here she was, married, and he was in the
same train in which she was taking her
bridal trip !
But when the nurse and child had passei
him he kept straight on. He had

, as long as its uglinesa is redeemed
y the sunshine of a certain presence."
This was positively going too far, he told
himself. He wondered why Chester did not
come over and pitch him into the hold just
behind them. He did come back now to
say: "Agnes, it is damp down here. You
had better go up, I think."
He led the way out, and the others fol-
lowed.
"Ab which hotel are you etaying—"
Denslow wad about to add "litre. Chester,"
but his lips refused to frame the words. He
ended'abruptly, but Agnes turned and told
him with a mile':
"Tie Windsor, and-----".
"Be carded, Agnes.e • there's a step
there." • •
Chester interrupted her with this reMark,
and her sentence remained unfinished.
They had reached the main cabin by this
time, and D-nelow's aunt 'beckoned him t�
her side With a lifting' ot his hat and a
"Good afternoon," he parted from the
woman who had stirred his pulses as he
thought they never could be stirred.
Carried awaybyan impulse he could neither
explain nor oondone, he had allowed his
admiration for her to -make itself tOo mani-
fest to be mistaken. And she? Well, she
certainly had not shown that she dis-
liked it.
Danalow's brain was in a whirl when they
reached the hotel, and he had gone to his
room to make himself ready for tea. That
he, sober -sided Hugh, as his friends had
often called him, should be carrying on a
flirtation with a married woman, and a
bride at that, seemed to him an astound-
ing fact. He mast cut himself loose in some
way. He would return to town the next
morning, although' he had promised to stay
a day or two longer. He could plead a
business contingency. Clearly, this was a
very unsafe place for him at the present
time.
He broke the news to Mrs. Roslyn at the
tea table.
"1 was afraid you would find it stupid
here Hugh," was her comment.
Stiupid 1 If ehe only new the real reason
for hie going! was Denslew's reflection.
The next day was even more beautiful
than its predecessor. Denslow decided to
walk to the station, in order to breathe
in as much of the ozone as possible before
getting back to town. .As he neared the
station he saw Agnes strollingup and down
the platform with Chester. She was not in
travelling dress. She had evidently, come
down to see him off. It was strange, he
should leave her if they were in their honey-
moon, Denslow thought. Perhaps, though,
it.occurred to him, they had been married
for some time.
She smiled sweetly when she saw him
coming, but he imagined a cloud came over
her face when her eye fell on his valise,
which he stepped forward to take from the
omnibus driver. •
"Are you going to leave so soon?" she
said.
'Yes. I must get back to town at once,"
he replied.
He knew that the answer Was terribly
commonplace, but, with those fascinating
eyes loolFing straight up into hie, all hie
idea ri seemed frozen, leaving only one !sensa-
tion behind, that of bitter, burning love.
" I'm eo sorry," he aid. " Desk has to
go back to that horrid buttiness, too. I was
hoping that We might have a moaner who
could drop in and :lee ua now and then, if
we couldn't afford one in the house."
"We ?" Denelow looked his perplexity.
"Yes.. Lena and I. She's my eider. I
think you never met her. Why, didn't
you lino* that I was staying with her and
her husband here? She was not well, so
she told Dick to bring nee back with --.

She began waving her hand to Chester.
Denelow did not move. He SSW the train

There was a elight breeze here. Denslow
a.
took off his travelling cap and let it int
the hair from his damp forehead, wleiee
he tried to dissociate the mad rush of the
train from the swiftness with which his
own thoughts seemed inclined to launch
theraselvee into the future -a future, too,
in which now there seemed to be no destina-
tion.
" Of course they're bride and groom."
He found himself almost unconsciously
echoing the words he had overheard that
woman say. What business was it of hers,
whether those two were newly wed or nob?
Denslow felt that he was growing unreason-
ably angry with her who had opened his
eyes to a fact he should have been glad to
learn.
Ib !night have been awkward if he gone to
call at the Blythewayse just as of old. Very
likely, Agnes had forgotten him. Time had
moved swiftly for her, with all the distrac-
tions of society; while for him, in a- new
atmosphere, and with new friends to make,
he had had vast opportunities to think over
the past and to look forward into the future.
Till this minute Denslow, had not realized
what a very important factor in his future
Agnes Blytheway had been. What if this
were his own wedding journey? What if
he had only stepped to the rear end of the
carriage to see if it was not cooler, and were
now going to return to get the porter to
bring camp chairs, so that he and she might
sit there together?
But he found he dared not think on in
this strain. It would be better, even, he
decided, that he should not remain in the
same carriage. To be sure, none of the
passengers could see him ; there was only
the pantry connected with the buffet behind
bitn. Nevertheless, he felt like an inter-
loper, and, replacing his cap, he turned
into the side passage and began to retrace
Ms steps. He could see plainly the face of
Agnes' companion now. He appeared to be
a man of about 35, and Denslow did not
remember ever to have met him. He hur-
ried on into his own seat and tried to prise
the rest of the trip in eleep-an attempt at
which he made a eonspiouous failure.
He was among the very first to leave the
train when it ran into the station. He felt
now that he wanted, above all things, to
avoid meeting face to face her who had been
Miss Blytheway.
His aunt was rapturously glad to see
him when he reached the hotel.
" I am afraid you will find it very stupid
Isere, though, Hugh," she added, after her
greeting. There'll nobody about but in-
valided old ladies and nuitually absorbed
brides and grooms."
Denslow's response was a declaration that
he had come down expressly to tee his aunt
and that no other attractions were newseary. The old lady smiled and looked up at
the tall, handeorne fellow with pride in her
eyes. He had always been gellant, even • as
a Tittle chap. She hoped he would find a
wife worthy of him some day.
The next a '
fternoon Mrs. Roalyn declared

that she had a regular attendant, hired by

Don't Wrap Baby Too Warmly.
A physician who has devoted himself to a
study of children and their diseases declares
that as a rule children are too warmly clad,
and that while care should be taken to pro-
tect them against sudden changes of tem.
perature, they should be much more lightly
dressed than they usually are. He strongly
recommends placing a baby on a hair mat -
treats out of a draught, where it is warm,
with nothing on but a little shirt and per-
haps a band, and letting him roll about and
enjoy himself for an hour or more each day.
A baby breathes through its pores as well as
through its lungs, and these breathing
places should not be covered up and rend-
ered useless. In the summer time lamb's
wool socks and a low-necked merino shirt
are sufficient protection with, of course, a
little frock and skirt, and a child accus-
tomed to the air is much more hardy and
less susceptible to changes in the weather.

it is softly rounded, and if you hang it upon
a piece of string and strike it gently it will
ring out an indescribably Bort and sweet
sound. Many ladies affect numerous ringa
which carry no significance, except, perhaps,
in some instances a hint of the possession
of wealth. Twenty-five years ago it was
unusual to see a tine dame or demoiselle
wearing more than one ring on either hand,
but now the more bejeweled fancies she cau
crowd on her dainty digits the better she
appears to be pleased. While women are

remedy, Syrup of Figs to cleanse the

Williams' Pink Pills, and again on her
arrival at her destination her friends urged
her to try this wonderful remedy. 011
Oat. 10th she consented to give the Pink
Pills a trial, and soon found such beneficial
effects that it needed no persuasiou to con-
tinue the treatment. In less than three
months she was fully restored and on July
15th returned to her home in Midland,
where her friends were rejoiced and grati-
fied at the wonderful change which Pink
Pills 'had wrought in her health and
appearance. Mrs. Chase has since continued
to enjoy good health and says that ehe
cannot too highly praise Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills, which have rescued her from debility clearly than daylight, or else why ahould

The Fools Not All Dead Net.
Even a blind man can see that more
after many years of almost hopelessnees.
Her husband also expresees his thankfulness
and appreciation of Pink Pills, and the un-
limited pleasure with which he received his
wife on her return, looking so well and
happy, which was, as he truly described it,
"like receiving one from the dead." He
said that his wife's condition had been such
that in going only a few yards she would be
obliged to rest, or obtain health, and before
her restoration she had been unequal to the
slightest exertion.
While in Midland the writer called upon
Dr. McCartney, druggist, who reports large
sales of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, with the
most decided benefits to those using them.
From many of our exchanges we have
noticed with interest the reports of the
great benefit derived from the use of Dr.
William's Pink Pills, and the case of Mrs.
Chase goes to confirm the claim that they
are a wonderful discovery in the interests
of humanity, restoring vitality to the
broken down system. Considering that
Mrs. Chase had suffered ten years, and
last October was looked upon as being at
the point of death, there must be stones
-
thing of an almost miraculous virtue in the
remedy which has raised her to her present
condition, of health, after she had spent
hundreds of dollars in doctoring, and for
other so-called remedies, of various kinds.
In fact Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
are recognized as one of the greatest
modern medicines -- a perfect blood
blinder and nerve restorer -curing such
diseases as rheumatism, neuralgia, par-
tial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus
dance, nervous headache, nervous prostra-
tion and the tired feeling resulting there-
from, diseases depending upon humors in
the blood, each at scrofula, thronic erysipe-
las, theater effects Of la grippe, etc. Pink
Pills restore pale and /sallow complexions
to the glow of health, and area specific for
all the troubles peculiar to the fertmle sex,
while in the ease of men they effect a radi-
cal cure in all eases arising from mental
worry, overwork or excessee of whatever
nature. ,
