vents This Dangerous Condition.
The chief cause of poor health b
our neglect of the bowels, Waste
Matter, instead of passing from the
lower intestine regularly every day,
,is allowed to remain there, generating
prisons which are absorbed by the
blood.
In other words, a person who Is
habitually constipated, is poisoning
himself. :We know now that Auto-
intoxication, due to non -action, of the
bowels, is directly responsible for
serious Kidney and Bladder Troubles;
that it upsets the Stomach, causes
Indigestion, Loss of Appetite and
Sleeplessness; that chronic Rheum-
atism, Gout, Pain In The Back, are
relieved as soon as the bowels become
regular; and that Pimples, Rashes,
Eczema and, other Skin Affections
disappear when "Fruit-a.tives" are
taken to correct Constipation.
"Fruit -a -lives" will protect you
against Auto -intoxication because
this wonderful fruit medicine acts
directly on all the eliminating organs.

able barrier between Ralph Mainwar-
ing aud the . fulfilment of his long
cherished project, •
The Fair Oaks tragedy still remained
as deep a mystery as an the morning
when, in all its horror of sickening de-
' tail, it had startled and shocked the
I entire connuunity. No trace of the
murderer had been as yet reported,
Mid even Mr, Whitney had been forced
to acknowledge in reply to numerous
inquiries that he had of late received
no tidings whatever from Merrick,
either of success or failure.
Since the announcement of Harold
Mainwaring at the club that he would
not touch a farthing of the Mainwaring
estate until not only his own name
! should be cleared, of the slightest im-
putation of murder, but until the mur-
der itself should he avenged, it had
been rumored that.the party at Wald.
orf uses' in possession of facts contain-
, ing the clue to the whole mystery,
, Though this was mere conjecture, if
was plainly evident that whatever sec-
rets that party held in its possesiou
were not likely to be divulged before
their time, The party had been aug-
mented by the arrival of the senior
member of the firm of Barton & Bar-
ton, while the register of the Waldorf
showed at that time numerous other
arrivals from London, all of whom
proved to be individuals of a severely
judicial appearance an on extremely
intimate terms with the original Wald-
orf party. Of the business of the for-
mer, however, or the movements of
the latter, nothing definite could be
learned, Despatches in cipher still
flashed daily over the wires, but their
r import remained a matter of the mere -
est surmise to the curious world out-
side.
Ralph Mainwaring, on the contrary,
sin ce the arrival of his London attor-
neys, Upham and Blackwell, with Gra-
ham, the well-known chirographical
e•Tert, had seized every opportunity
for rendering himself and them as con-
spicuous as possible, while Isis boasts
of their well -laid plans, the strong
points in their case, and their 'ultimate
triumph, formed his theme on all oc-
casions. Mr. Whitneyfs esosttion at
this time was not an enviable one, for
Ralph Mainwaring, having of late be-
come dimly conscious of a lack of har-
mony between himself and his New
York attorney, took special delight
in frequently flouting his opinions and
advice in the presence of the English
solicitors; but that gentleman, mindful
of a rapidly growieg account, wisely
pocketed his pride, and continued to
serve his client with the most urbane
courtesy, soothing his wounded sensi-
bilities with an extra fee for every snub.
On the day prior to that set for the
opening of the trial, among the numer-
ous equipages drawn up at one of the
piers, awaiting an incoming ocean -
lines, was the Mainwaring carriage,
containing, as usual, Ralph Mainwaring,
Upham and Blackwell, and Mr Whitney,
The carriage and its occupants s.:ormed
the centre of attraction to a consider-
able portion of thecrowd, until at-
tention was suddenly diverted by the
sight of a stylish turnout in the shape
of an elegant trap and a pair of superb
bays driven tandem, which passed the
Mainwaring' carriage and took its posi-
tion at' some distance nearer the pier.
Seated in the trap were Harold Main-
ivaring and Hugh Mainwaring, junior.
Their appearance together at that par-
ticular time and place excited no little
wonder and Comment, especially when,
the 614j:1ank having been thrown
down; ' -the young men left the turnout

MAINWARING VS. MAINWARING
The case of Mainwaring versus Main-
waring had been set for the opening
of the December term of court, being
the -first case on the. docket. The in-
tervening weeks, crowded with pre-
paration for the conning litigation, had
passed, and now, on the eve of the
contest, each side' having marshalled
its forces, awaited the beginning of
the fray, each alike confident •,,of vic-
tory and each alike dreaming of the
end. From near and far was gathered

Ralph Mainwaring and his party.
.All was explained 'a few moments
later, as that embodiment of geniality,
William Mainwaring Thornton, loomed
up In the crowd, his daughter upon
one arm, upon the other Miss Carle-
ton, and accompanied by Mrs, Hogarth
and the usual retinue of attendants.
"Looks like a familyreunien, by
Georgel" exclaimed one of the on-
lookers, as a general exchange of
greetings ensued, but to a close obser-
ver it was evident that between some
members of the different parties were
decidedly strained. Not so with Mr.
Thornton, however; his first greetings
were for the young men.
"Well, well, Hugh, you contumacious
young rascal! how are you? 1 hear
you've kicked over the traces and set
the governor and his sovereigns at
defiance! Well, you've shown yourself
a Mainwaring, that's all I have to sayl
Here is a young lady, however, who is
waiting to give you a piece of her
mind; you'll have to settle with her,"
"Papal" exclaimed Edith Thornton
in faint protest, her fair face suffused
with blushes as she, came forward to
meet her lover, while her father turn-
ed towards Harold Mainwaring.
"Well, my dear sir,"' he said, ex-
tending his hand with the utmost
cordiality, "I am glad to meet you in
your own proper sphere at last; I al-
ways thought you were far too good
looking for a secretaryi But, joking
aside, my dear boy, let me assure you
that as the son of Harold Scott Main-
waring, one of the most royal fellows
I ever knew, 1 congratulate you and
wish you success." '
Deeply touched by Mr, Thornton's
kindness and his allusion' to his father
the'young 'man' thanked him with con-
siderable emotion.
"That Is all right," the elder man
responded heartily; "I was very sorry
not to have metyou in London, but I
heard the particulars of your story

der at the young people with a ,comi-

see how it is yourself, Mainwaring:

and no matter what My personal senti-
ments towards you might be, I find
myself forced th maintain a position of
strict neutrality."

"As you do in yours, for instance."
"You know very well," continued,
Ralph Mainwering, flushing angrily,
"that if you had forbidden Edith
marrying Hugh under present condi-
Dons, he would have got down off his
horse very quickly."
"That is something 1 would never
do," Mr. Thornton replied, cahnly,
"for two reasons; first, I havA never
governed my daughter by direct com-
mands and' prohibitions'and second,. I
think Just as much of Hugh Mainwar-
ing without. his father's money as. with
it; more, if it is to be accompanied

ed."
"Then am 1 to understand," de-
manded the other, angrily, that you

"My dear Mainwaring," said Mr.
Thornton, Much as he would address a
petulant child; "this is all the merest

The Toronto Daily Star Alone in rit, ION
has Published their Histories
This policy will be continued. The Toronto Daily Star will
endeavor to lift, for its readers, the curtain of diplomacy and in-
trigue and give them a glimpse at the great personalities on the
world's stage.
For this purpose alone—it has twenty - four world - famous
correspondents at the Peace Conference—They will keep Star
readers fully informed upon every development.
The Toronto Daily Star has been famous for its feature
stories. It published Harry Lluder's great book as a serial. Sir
Frederick Smith, the AttorneY-General of England, • visited
Canada, and The Star gave its readers his book of personal im-
pression.
At the first of this year The Star began the publication of two
__outstanding Cinadian stories of the war. The first, "My Three
Years in a German Prison," by Hon. Dr. Henri S. Beland, M.P.,
former Postmaster -General of Canada, is in some respects Can-
ada's most notable contribution to the literature of -the war. The
second, "From Mons to the Rhine with the Canadian Army," is
a diary by Lieut. -Col. John A. Cooper, a distinguished Canadian
journalist, describing the last and perhaps most spectacular phase
of -Canada's part in the Great War. Further important features,
the best available, will be announced from time to time.
