Gavin Hamilton eat. before his study table on a May morning, and his face betrayed some sadness and perplexity, and he evidently found it difficult to fix hie at- tention on his morning's work. It may be that the views from the bay window com- manding the noble expanse of the Frith of Tay allured him rnore than was common; at least, hie eyes never roamed from it, but his thoughts were far away. He was a man in the youthful prime of life, and he, bad a goodly presence and a face disposed to win trust and approbation. The only sign of weaknese, perhaps, lay in the mouth, which was soft and mobile as a woman's. Yet the jaw had a massive squareness wbieh be- tokened a man's strength of mind and ,will. Ib was a Friday morning, and hie work for the fpllowing Sunday was madly in arrears. He had but recently come to the flourishing seaside resort of Lowden Bay, and had not yet been tempted to give to his work any- thing but hie best. Bin a mind distracted by personal concerns is difficult to give to abetraot ideas. Finally he gave up, and taking a letter from his pooketeread it through for the fourth or fifth time, that morning. Its perusal was disturbed by hie housekeeper's knock on the door. "11 you please, sir, that's the page lad- die from Blyth House, and Miss Blyth • would be much obliged if you would go up this morning. The laird is waur, and is &skin' to see you." _ "Very well, Mrs. Kippen ; tell the lad I'll be up within an hour," he Answered, and there was a curious look on his fees as he refolded the letter and returned it to his poeketbook. Then he shut up his desk and began to put on hie boots. He was inward- ly glad of the diversion, only it seemed strange that it should come from the very quarter which had been in his thoughts. "It may help me to a decisiore" he said to himself, adding, with a sigh, "And yet, liner all, there can be - but, one dectision ; none knows it better than I." The road to Blyth House led him pleas- antly by the seashore, and he encored the grounds by a small wicket -gate, opening directly on the rough bents which skirted the shore. It was only a small property, and though Mr. I3Tyth was called the laird, it was a mere courtesy title. He was simply a wealthy - Creetown merchant, who had built himself a goodly dwelling place near the village of his youth, and who, by rea- son of hie good deeds and kindly disposition, was much beloved therein. It was a beautiful house, planned with artistic taste and skill, set like a gem in its pleasant woods near the ripple of a wimpling burn, whieh poured ite waters into a miniature loch in the park. Hamil- ton looked .round him with a passing sigh of envy. Here, surely, life might flow peacefully in its appointed groove. But here also hearts could ache and dieappoint• mente lurk, it being ordered that we shall have noeontinuing city or abiding place. The servant who admitted him—a middle- aged butler of sober, respectable appear- ance—bore traces of agitation and distress on hie face. " Your master is not worse'I hope, Ben- net ?" said the minister, as he gave him good Morning. The man only shook his head, making no attempt to speak. 11 The doctor's just been, air," he said, finding his voice as they ascended the wide, richly carpeted stairs. " He says it's but a question of days—may be hours." He opened wide the door of• the sick chamber, and having shown the minister in, at once withdrew. A professional nurse by the bedside stepped back as Hamilton advanoed and the patient:welcomed him warily. To Hamilton's untiiiined eye there was nothing alarming in his appearance, thongh hie face was certainly haggard and w� n ; but it had looked so for many weeks, a nce the dread disease which had baffled medical skill bad obtained the mastery, ancl set the limit to hie days. "Von have Jost no time, my friend," said the merchant in a oalM, clear voice. " You can go into the next room, nurse, within call. I want a private word with Mr. Hamilton." . The nurse withdrew. • Hamilton took a ()hair by the bedside, and for a' moment laid his strong young hand in tenderness on the wasted fingers lying outside the white bed - &over. For this man had been a 'pillar of strength,' an abiding friend to him' in the first trying days of his ministry in the place, aiding him by his counsel, guiding him by his wisdom, and, above all, by -the ripeness of his spiritual expe?ienoe, keeping him ever in the upward way. ' And Hamilton, hav- ing no father of his own, and a heart . grate- fully responsive to the emallest kindness, now felt to him as a 80D. , For the moment the poignancy' of a personal anguish, born •of the knowledge that soon. he would be bereft, -shut all else out. "1 am a good deal worse. Baxter ad- mitted it this morning, Gavin, and so long as I am suffering lese, and have a clear mind, I want to speak to you about Kirs- teen." __ , The minister started, and in the thadow of the curtain thel red dyed his cheek. " You have not been her this morning? Poor child, she wail up with me the greater part of the night, and has gone to rest now, z1 daresay. My greatest concern—nay, my onlyone, as you may easily believe—is leaving my one evhi lamb &lime in the world." " She will not be alone ; She has trOops of friends," said Hamiltonand his voice was t iok in his throat. Thi dying man smiled, but drearily. '' be wants more than friends ; she • wants one strong arm to lean on. Perhaps you can guess what I mean? You know • how dear every hair of here head is to me— what she has been, and is, and will be all her days, in whatever home she is placed. Children's Fertilizer.

The Egyptian woman looks greatly overburdened, and yet the physical bur- dens she carries will not compare with the burdens borne by many an American woman. There is no burden like the bur- den of disease. The woman who suffers fro ni inflammation or ulceration, bear- ing -down pains, weak back and nervous- ness, bears a burden which crushes her very life. Every woman should know that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription makes weale -women strong and sick women well. It cures the womanly diseases which cause weak- ness and feebleness.

Hamilton rose to his feet, and the veins • ood out on his brow, and his hands elench- e themselves at his side. "You know what she is. She nee& no else from gentle or simple. There are w like her ; and I believe she could piok here she ohose. But my heart cleaves to u, lad, as if you were my own son. I h vinprcved you in the last year, and I k ow what you are. And I say I would rather give her to you than to any man, poor in this world though you be, and I be. lieve the bairn is of one mind with me." Hamilton turned away so that his faoe might not be seen, It was almost more than he onuld bear—the joy and the pain of it, and the terrible ordeal through which his soul must pass to victory. " Well', what do you say? You are taken byesurprise ; but at your age it ought to be a pleasant surprise, 1 rhave watched you oloeei you and her together, in thelast weeks, and I have hoped that perhapn the thing might oome about without any word from me.

" Mr. Blyth, I love Kirsteen as my own soul. 0 d bless you for your oonfidenee in me. W'll you give me till to -morrow to think it ver—not an hour longer ?" " Cert inly ; there needna be that baste," said the erohant, and immediately began to speak of something else. Withi an hour the Minister left the house, a d he only called in at the maree to tell his oueekeeper that he was going to Glasgow by the mid-day train, and Wouid not retu ni till vary late that night. Three o'clock u the afternoon beheld him seeking admitta on at a handsome home in one of the west rii terraces where abode one o the spiritual 1 &dere and teachers of m n, a man of od, whose name was re ered through e length and breadth of Scot- land, an eyond it among those who con- cern the elves with spiritual things. To this man i had. been Hamilton's privil ge to be assist t for two, years, before his call to work in wden_Bay. He was fortunate ; he reme ered, -as he waited admittance, i: this was o e of the afternoons he •w s at home in I.sstudy from two o'clock until four to a 1 who might wish torsee him.

What does our conscience bid you do?' "My conscience bids me marry the woman who has been faithful to me for seven long years. She is alone now. Her mother died five months ago." "It was a pity you did not take her to Lowden at the beginning. Why did not you ?" Hamilton shook his head. "1 don't know. I had some idea of get- ting Nettled first. She has been very patient; never queetioning any decision of mine. In some reepeots she is far to good for me." The old man paused by the desk and looked straightly into his young colleague's faoe. He was old, but the understanding of youth had not departed from him, and he could follow the workings of Hamilton's Mind as if it had been an open book. He knew what war the natural man was waging. there, and how youth and beauty and wealth were luring him from the way of honour.1 " I have seen, as you have doubtless nen alio, many ill assorted marriages: among our brethren, arising out of eiroumstances somewhat similar. The one partner grows mentally, the other stands still, and there is not between them that unity which alone makes marriage the sacrament it oue lit to bo. But another thing have I seen also, a man go back on the plighted word of his youth, and marry where he' thought it would be for his seeial and professicnil ad- vancement, and--" "Well ?" asked Hamilton, and hie tongue was dry in his mouth. "1 have never seen blessing follow. it; nay, I have such an one in my mind's eye now, whose marriage has set the seal upon his -spiritual death. I know nothing of the two women of whom you have told me, but this is whet I say. Go to the woman who has been faithful to von all these years. Marry her without delay, and if you faith. fully do your duty by her God will do the rest. About seven o'clock that evening a pale, slim girl with a somewhat weeny look on her sweet face, came out by the private door of a fashionable milliner's establish- ment in the West.end. When she saw and recognized a tall ministerial figure waiting on the kerb, the paleness and the weariness left her face, and she beceme beautiful, glorified by the halo oast by love. "Oh, Gavin 1 I was thinking of you as I came downstairs, not dreaming you were so near I Why are you here to -day ?" He drew her hand within his arm, and for a full minute did not Ppeak. An un- speakable tenderness overflowed in his heart, touched by a quick remorse. "1 am here to see you, Mary. 1 have been long enough alone in Lowden Manse. Let ue be married quietly without any de- lay. It can be no disrespect to your moth- er's memory now. She knew all about it, and was not afraid of me. When will you come ?" Her hand trembled on his arm, and upon her face there was a look impossible to de- soribe. " I am iiaiting, Mary," he said quickly. "11 you are so anxious I think I could come now. But only this morning 1 was calculating that if I had another winter at my music and French I should be surpris- ingly proficient. I have worked very hard, Gavin: I will never shame you, dear, in Lowden Manse." "My darling," he said, and the words were sincere enough. Under his breath he added. "God forgive me." Before they parted that 'night everything was arranged, and their next meeting would be the final one before their lives were join- ed. Very late that night Gavin Hamilton alighted at Lowden Bay station, and the porter touched his bat. "The laird de'ed this afternoon, sir, quite sudden an' peaceful in hie sleep." "So he need never know," said Hamilton to himself as he turned away. "1 am spared one painful task. God has been better to me than I deserve." And in the years .which followed that grateful acknowledgement was often in his heart. His wife sometimes wondered what quality it is in her husband's love which makes it so different from others, and why his pride in her should be so high. And though she has never found any answer to these wonderinge, she counts herself the most blessed among women.—British Week- ly. A Knock Out For .Asthrna.

Watchful Mothers Can Keep Their Babies Healthy, Rosy- Cheeked and Happy. Nothing in the world is such a comfort and joy as a healthy, hearty; rosy-cheeked, happy baby. Babies can be kept in perfect health only by having at hand and administering when needed some purely vegetable, harmless remedy, and of all this class of medicines Baby's Own Tablete are conceded to be the best. For constipation, colic, diarrhoea, simple fevers, sour stomachs, teething babies, Indi- gestion and sleepleesnems, theire tablet, are a really wonderful cure. Yon can give them to smallest bady without the slightest fear. Dissolved in water, they will be taken read- ily. They contain absolutely not a partiole of opiate or other injurious drugs. They are small, sweet lozenges that any baby will take without objection, and their action is prompt and pleasant. They will tone up e whole system, and make the little one as hearty and free from infantile disorders as any mother could wish. Mrs. Walter Brown, Milby, Que., says : "1 have never used any medioine for baby that did him so much good as Baby's Own Tablets. I would not be without them." This is the verdict of all mothers who have used these tablets. _ They cost 25 cents a box. All druggists sell them or they may be secured by sending the price direot, and the tablets will be for- warded prepaid. The Dr. Williams' Medi- cine Co., Dept.

For a mornent the farmer glared at her in deep and utter. dimwit, and then, pulling up with a jerk that nearly shot the woman and her offspring over the splashboard, he shouted " Perhaps he'd like a little walkeepalkee, marm, along the roady- poady," and a minute later he was, proceed- ing on his way alone. r, It Strikes the Hear.
