Consternation Over a Darning
[ ; i , Needle.
According to the story of an aged resi
dent of:Fitzroy* Ontario, he well remember
the time when there was but one darnin
needle in that county, and the only mil
was a day's journey distant.
One day it Mrs. Dickson, who chanced t
have temporary pesseassion of the darning
needle, and had it carefully stuck ia he
apron in a holder,' set off to the mill With a
bag of grain laid o'n the back of a berme:
The goodd lady had a rough road to travel
and unfortunately lost the darning needle
,This was really a public calamity in Fitzroy.
Nearly twenty ihousewives depended upon
itnat darning needle for repairing gooks and
.for other coarse mending. It passed from
i i
;one house to another by special meissenger,
land every woman had the use of it one day
1
in three weeks. Another darning needle
could not then be procured nearer than
Perth, a distance of fitty miles away.
Tidings of the disaster which had befallen
Mrs. Dickson soon spread, and on the follow-
ing morning it diazen women,some of them ac-
companied by heir children and some by
th ir husbands, turned out to search three
mi es of ferest nth. It seemed it hopeless
task, but keen yes were bent upon every
portion of the highway, and at length I one
little igirl eapied it. A great shout I was
raisecf, and the good news was carried along
the line of searchers. The party returned
home, and the rejoicings in newly settled
Fitzroy that day was great, —Philadelphia

STOP IT NOW
Before it is too late, stop that succession of colds that means nothing more
nor less than catarrh. Stop the suffering. Stop the disagreeable catarrhal dis-
charges that are so humiliating to you and offensive to your friends. Don't let
it rue on u etil your condition causes you to be ostracized as if you were a leper.
Don't neglect yourself until consumption makes its fatal appearance. You can
be mitred—apt merely relieved, but absolutely and perfectly cured.
Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal Powder
will restore you to complete, perfect health. It gives relief at once. It cures
in an incredibly short time. Hundreds of cases of from 5 to 20 years' standing
have been cared—cases that physicians had pronounced incurable. The catarrhal
powder acts like magic, not only in patarrh, but in colds, sore throat, tonsilitis,
hay fever, loss of smell, deafness and all similar diseases.
Mr. C. G. Archer, of Brewer, Maim, writes asfollows :—." I have had catarrh for
several years. Water would run from rey eyes and nose for days at a time. About four
months ago I was induced to try Dr. Agnew's Catarrhal Powder, and since using the
wonderful rem dy I have not had an atteck. I would not be without it." At druggists.

CHAPTER XXV.—Continued.
ata
'I am not going to oat° it—you can go
back to London—I shall atity here.'
Poor Smith felt absolutely nonplussed.
'Go back,' said Phylliti," you don't care
for me. I shall sleep at the hotel here to-
night, and go home alone to-morrow—it
doesn't matter—nothing matters now.'
She tuened her head away and burst into
sudden passionate, tears.
'I did not know you could be BO cruel,'
she sobbed.
Smith glanced at his watch in despair.
A train left High Barnet at seven. They
had very little ehance even now of catching
it. If they missed this there would not be
another till nine o'clock, and then they
should not be back in Park , Lane until ten
or after. He knew better than Phyllis did
whet people would say of them, if they re-
turned home so late, and yet here was the
headstrong grl behaving like a baby, and
thinking as lit.t10 of her reputation as if it
were thistle- own, which might be blown
away OD thesjrind.
And yet h w Smith's heart ached with
love for her as she eat there in her genui e
ti
grief—him he longed to respoiid to her pi e-
ous little appeal to save her from herself.
Ought he to do it ?—ought he not to riek
everything, even his own future, to do what
he could to protect Phyllie from the conse-
• quences whit% would moat likely arise from
her own weakness and folly.
The moments flew on. Of course he could
not leave her. Already every chance' Id
catching the seven o'clock train was over.
'Phyllis,' he said, suddenly, 'will you
stop crying and listen to me? I am going
to suggest something which I do net like,
but it is the only possible way in Which I
can attempt to save you. We have already
missed the train, and could not be home
until sedate that your friends and guardians
would be naturally very angry with U8 both.
I had no right, Phyllis, to take - you away
as did to -day. I did wrong—I ough not
to bave listened to you.'
'Oh, please don't begin to acold me,'
sobbed poor Phyllis.
'No, no, not for the world, my poor ittle
darling; no, no,' said the young ma'his
heart melting utterly at the bewit hing
glance she gave him.
'Put your arms "round me then an kiss
me,' she said,.
'There, Phil, there,' he said—he 4iseed
her forehead and lips once or twice and
pushed the soft terrils of hair fro her
brow.
'There, dear, there,' be said, soothi glY.
'I have yielded—against my Potter udg-
meat I have yielded. I meant to wo you
openly, Phyllis, and to offer you a hom not
unworthy even of you, but all that a for
the future. Some day even yet you may
have it, but now, dear, I yield to you en-
treaties, and will marry you as soon as ever
the ceremony can be performed.'
'Thank you, John, thank you, but am
not going home to -night --I am never oing
home again except as your wife.'
'1 have thought of that part—it rw . be
best under the circumstances for you no t to
return to Park Lane until you are my ife.
I will take you to the Priory to -night and
put you under my mother's charge, hyl-
lie.'
CHAPTER XXVI.
While Miss Prettyman was helping ifor-
ward John Smith'e wooing, Mrs Vincent
was doing her beat to hinder. it. People
like Mrs. Vincent are very often sueceseful.
They are 'not liked, but their wishes weigh
with people, their indomitable determina-
tion produces results which could never be
given to more honorable and straightfor-
ward natures.
That this should be the case is one of the
tizzies one has to encounter in this wicked
orld. Mrs. Vincent was makingl golden
8e of Miss Prettynnan and of Phyllis Mar-
tindale. They were both in vit certain sense
her bankers. If *phyllis married John
Smith, Mrs. Vincent' a bank would virtually
stop payment.. The good lady had only to
imagine each it situa.tion for herself to make
her intensely resolute and determined.
'No,' don't keep me, Daisy," she said to
her eldest, and for the time being her fa
orite daughter, 'I am partieularly engage
this morning—I have important. business to
transact. What is it, child? You and your
sisters ' want new dresses. Well, all you
have toI do is to go to Mies Prettyman's
dressmaker and order anything that takes
your fancy. Tell that woman that she is to
send the account to Miss Prettyman,- and
now don't keep me any longer, my love.'
Mrs. Vincent lett the house, and Daisy
t-drned to her sisters.
Look here,' she said, flushing deeply,
'I'm not going to order those dresses.'
What do you mean, Daisy?' asked Con-
nie.
''What I say, Connie, 11 do think that if
there is a woman in this world that is cruel
to another, it is mamma to Miss Prettyman.
Whatever any one says it is- wicked to use
Miss •Prettyman's and Phyllis'e money as
we do; and I for one am not going to be a
party to it.'
'Then what will you do for a new dress
for Hurlingham next week?'
'I don't know,' answered Daisy; a shad-
ow came over her round childish face as she
spoke.
You know how mamma will, continue to
go on,' continued Connie.
Yes, yes, I know—you need not tell me.
Mamma makes a coward of me. I hate my-
self for it. I do wish I cm ld run away
with some good man to get rid of mamma.'
'Then, of course, you'll eta er the dress,'
continued Connie, in her cal n voice. As
you have not got the good man to run off
with, you'd better order the ress.'
'I don't think I shall—at any rate not to-
day. Don't ternpt meany fukther.'
When Mrs, 1lincentleft 41t) Park Lane,
she immediatel went to pay her accustomed
morning call at o. 414
Miss Prettyman had alread gone out to
interview Johb Smith. idrs. Vincent
thought her fitiend's absen '43 suspicious.
She had already' bribed tho ootman to be
completely at her service, e,nd she now
thought it well to have an itterview with
this individual—
She learned from him that Phyllis meant
to spend the morning at home, and that a
certain Mr. Smith, when he called at twelve
o'clock, was to be admitted.
Mrs. Vincent could scarcely restrain the
laugh of triumph Which crOwded on her
lips.
Ha, ha,' she said to herSelf, who so
sharp as I at ferreting out the truth. Ha,
ha, Miss Phyllis, I'm your match; I shall
put it little spoke in your whe 1 on this oc-
casion, my pretty love.' S the footman
got his explicit directions, an1 Mrs. Vin-
cent, little guessing that Phyll a had acted
as eavesdropper, started off on her missiOn
to Mr. Marshall with an easy mind.
She was fortunate in finding that good
gentleman at home, He was sufficiently
disengaged to give her half an hour of his
valuable time, during which she explained
Phyllis's dangerous position to him as graph-
ically as her very condiderable powers would
admit.
'I feel quite certain the young man in-
tends to marry her,' she said in conclusion.
Of course Phyllis's fortune tempts him.'
What did you say his name was?' aeked
Mr. Marshall.
John Smith; surely suCh a name apeaks
for itself.'
