She did not seem overpleasedeowith
his fancy, for, the surprise fading from
her face, "Oh-, that was the way you
remembered," she said.,
"Perhaps .it was not that way alone.
You won't dospise me for being mawk-
ish tonight?"he asked. "1 haven't had
the chance for so long."
The night air wrapped them warmly,
and the babel of the little breezes that
etirred the .foliage around them was
the fineell of damask roses from the
garden. The creek splashed overhthe
pebbles at their feet, and it drowsy
bird, half wakened by the moon, croon-
ed languorously In the 'sycamores. The
girl loote4 out at the sparkling water
through downcast lashes. "Is it bee
cause it is so transient that beauty is
pathetic," she staid, "because we can
never come back tie it in quite the
same, Way? I am -re_ sentimental girl.
If you are born so itels never entirely
teased out of you, is It. . Besides, to-
night is all a dream. It isn't real, you
know. You couldn't be mawkish."
Her tone was gentle as a caress, and
It made him tingle to his finger tips,
"How do you know?" he asked.
"I just know. DO you think I'm
very bold and forward?" she said
dreamily. _
-"It was your song I wanted to be
fientiraental about. I am like one 'who
tbrough long days of toir-only that
doesn't quite apply-danel nights devoid
of ease, but I can't dein ithat one
sleep well here; it is Plettville's
specialty -like one who I
"still heard in his soul -the music
Of wonderft4 melodies."'
"Yes," she answered, "to come here
and to do what you hinee don& and to
live this Isolated nillage Life that 'must
be so desperately dry and dull for a
mon of your 'sort, and yet to have the
kind of heart that makes wonderful
melodies sing in itself --oh," she cried,
"I hay that is fine!"
"You do not understand," he return-
ed sadly, wishing before her to be un-
mercifully just to himself. "I came
here because I 'couldn't make a living
anywhere else. And the 'wonderful
melodies' -I have only known you one
evening -and the melodies"- He rose
to his feet and took a few steps towdard
the garden. "Come," he said, "let me
fake you back. Let us go before I" -
He finished with a helpless' laugh.
She stood by the benchone hand
resting on it. She stood all in the
tremulant shadow. She moved one
step toward him, and a single long
sliver of light pierced he sycamores
and tell upon her head. He gasped.
"What was it about the -melodies?"
she said.
"Nothing. I don't know how to thank
you for this -evening that you have giv-
en me. 1-1supposeyou are leaving to-
morrow. No one ever stays here. I"—
"What about the melodies?"
He gave it up. "The moon makes peo-
ple insane' he cried.
"If that is true, then you need not be ,
more afraid than I, because 'people' is
plural. What were you saying aboqt"-
"I had heard them -in my heart. '
When I heard your voice tonight I
knew that it was you who 'sang them
there, had been singing them for me al-
ways." h
Nilo!" she cried gayly. "All that de-
bate _about a pretty speech!" Then:
sinking before him in a courtesy, "I am
beholden to you," she sal& "Do you
think no man ever made a little flat-
tery for me before tonight?"
At the edge of the orchard, where
they could keep an unseen watch on the
garden tnd the bank of the creek, Judge
Briscoe nd Mr. Todd were ensconced
under a apple tree, the former still
armed ,ith his shotgun, When the
young p ple got up from their bench,
the two nen rose hastily, then saunter-
ed slowly toward them. When they
met, Hariless shook each tof thens cor-
dially -I by the hand without seeming to

Botanical Plants
Bold the Omit of Life' Oa /Math,
Recent experiment.; conducted by most
eminent scientists, prove that light is a
great reMedial agent; it is essentially
Nature's agent. It may be either ‘11112. -
light or electric light, but it has a de-
cided effect in helping nature to banish
disease and restore health. Other scien-
tific men have proved that oxygen elec-
trifies the heart and can prolong life, -
The people on this earth are susceptible
to some laws which govern plant life. A
plant caenot be successfully grown in the
dark.,A man is seldom healthy and strong
who lves in the dark or in sunless rooms.
After all, Nature' t ways are found to be
the best. Nature's remedies are always
best for eradicating disease, and by this we
mean a medicine made of roots and herb*,
They are assimilated in ttte stomach and
taken up by the blood and are, therefore,
the most potent means which can be em-
ployed for the regaining of lost health.
Dr. it, V. Pierce, consulting physician to
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
at Buffalo, N. Y., in many years of eaten -
give prattice, found that he could pin his
faith to an alterative extract of certain
plants and roots for the cure of all blood
diseases, - This he called Dr, Pierce's
Golden Medical Diecovery, Containing no
alcohol nor oarcotics, entirely, vegetable,
this "Discovery" Makes rick red blood and
is a powerful tissue -builder, givingthe tired
business man or woman renewed etrength
and health. Rapidly growing school -girls
and boys often show impoverished blood
by the pimples or boils which appear on
face or neck. .To eradicate the poisons
from the blood and feed the heart, lungs
and stomach on pure blood, nothing le
so good as Dr, Pierce' s Golden Medical
Discovery,
Don't allow the dealer to insult your in-
telligence by offering his own blood rem-
edy to you instead ,of this well
preparation of Dr. Pierces. Ten cbances
1 to one he will substitute a cheap compound
l having a large percentage of alcohol in it.

parade? And Minnie wants you to stay
to dinner and go to the show with there
in the afternoon."
Harkless seized his hand and shook it
:tad then laughed heartily as he accept-
ed the invitation.
At the gate Miss Sherwood. extended
her hand to him and said politely,
While mockery shone from her eyes:
"Good night, ,Mr. Rattles% I do not
leave tomorrow. I am very glad to have
met you."
"We are going to keep her all sum-
mer, if we can," said Minnie, weaving
her arm about her friend's waist
"You'll come in the morning?"
"Good niglit, Miss Sherwood," be re-
tuoned hilariously. "It has been such
a pleasure to meet you. Thank you so
'much for saving my life. It was very
good of you, indeed. Yes; in the morn-
ing. Good night, good night" He
shook hands with all of them, includ-
ing Mr. Todd, who was going with him.
He laughed all the way home, and Wil-
liam walked at his side in amazement.
The Herald building was a decrepit
frame structure on Main street, It
had once been a small warehouse and
was now sadly lia need of paint. Close-
ly adjoining It, in a large, blank looking
yard, stood it low brick cottage, oyer
which the second story of the old ware-
house leaned in an effect: of tipsy af-
.fection that had reminded Harkless,
when he first saw it, of an old Sunday
school book woodcut of an Inebriated
parent under convoy of a devoted child.
The title to these two buildings and
the blank yard had 'mai- included in
the purchase of the Herald, and the
-cottage was the editor's home!
There was a light burning upstairs
in the Herald office. From the street
a broad, tumbledown stairway ran up
on the.-eutside .of the building to the
second floor, and at the italrevay rail-
ing John turned and shook his com-
panion warmly by the hand.
"Good nights - William," he said. "It
was plucky of you to join in that mlfss
tonight. I shan't forget it,"
"I jest happened to come along," re-
plied the other awkwardly. Then,
with a porteatousi yawn, he asked,
"Ain't ..ye goint to bed?"
"No; Parker wouldn't allow it."
"Welt" observed William, with an-
other yawn, which threatened to
pose the the veritable soul of him, "I
d'know how ye stand it. It's closte on
11 o'clock. _Good night"
John went up the step, singing
aloud- [
"For tonight we'll merry, merry be,
'or tonight we'll merry, merry be,"
and Otopped on the sagging platform
at th top of the stairs and gave the
..
moon good night with a wave of the
hand and friendly laughter. At this it
suddenly struck him that he was twen-
ty-nine years of age and that he had
laugh d a great deal that, eveenng;
laugh.ri and laugbed over thi gs not
in the least humorous, like an cited
schoolboy making a first forma call;
that he had shaken hands with Aliss
litiscoe when he left her as if be should
never ime her again; that he had taken
iss herwood's hand twice in one
very temporary parting; that he had

"Idiot!" lietorled, "What has hap-

CHAPTER V.
HE bright sun of circus day
shone into Harkless' window,
and he awoke to find himself
smiling. For a little while he
i lay content, drowsily wondering why
il
.he smi ed, only knowing that there
was. So nething new. It was thus as
a boy he had wakened on birthday
mornings or on Christmas or on the
Fourth of July, drifting happily out of
pleasant dreams into the conselousness
of long awaited delights that bad come ,
true, yet- lying only half awake in a
cheerful borderland, leaving happiness

The morning breeze was fluttering at
his window: blind, a honeysuckle vine
tapped lightly on the pane. Birds were
trilling, warbling, whistling, and from
the stre t came the rumbling of wag-
ons, mory cries of greeting and the
barking f dogs. What was it made
him feel so young and strong and. light
hearted? The breeze brought him the
smell of June roses, fresh and slink
with dey, and then he knew why he
had coui4 spilling from his dreams. He
leaped o t of bed and ehouted loudly:
"Zen! Hello, Xenophon!"
In answer an . itncaent, very leek

age showing'uncle; his grizzled hair
likecharred paper' in a fall of pine

said: "Good ruawn',1 mill. Yessuh. Hies

A few momentS, lathr the colored
man, seated on the front steps �f the
cottage, heard a' mighty splashing
within while the rafters rang 'with
stentorian sting:

suddenly, and. he crotched his head.
"Maybe be goin" a ay," he said quer-
ulously, d'What 14icome of ole Zen?"

... The length of ain street Ilind all
sides of the square resounded with the
rattle of vehicles of every kind.- Since
earliest dawn they had been pouring in-
to the village, a long procession, -on ev-
ery country road. The air was full of
-eklitlaration: everybody was laughing
and -shouting and calling greetings, for
Carlow county wds turning out,- and
from far and. near' the country people
carbe-nay, from e4ier the county line;
and clouds of dust- arose from every
thoroughfare and highway and swept
into town to herald their comhig.

bright, but be might as well have wa-
tered the streets wifth his tears, which,
indeed, when the fariners began to
come in, bringing their cyclones ef
dust, he drew nigh unto after a burst
of profanity as futile aa his cart,
"Tief wie ides Meer Joll deine Liebe ssin,"
hummed the editor lin the cottage. Hee
song had \taken on /a reflective tone, as
that of one who ons a problem or
m.,,usically ponders hich card to play.
He was kneeling be ore an old trunk in
his bedchamber. From ono compart-
ment he took a neotly folded pair of
duck trousers and 4 light gray tweed
coat, from another a straw hat with a
ribbon of "bright colors. He examined
thed musingly. trille3r had lain in the
trunk for a long tithe undisturbed. He
shook the coat and brushed It. Then he
laid the garments imon his bed. and
proceeded to shave i' himself carefully,
alter which be donned the white trou-
sers, the gray coat and, rummaging in
the trunk again, found a gay pink cra-
vat, which he fastened about his 'tall
collar (also o resuatrectlon from the
trunk) with a pearl p'. 'He took a long
time to arrange his ilair \with a pair of
brushes. When et ljaatit suited him
and his dreseing wa -coniplete, he sal-
lied forth to breakfa.t. 1
Xenophon stared after him as he went
outof the gate whistling heartily. The
old darky lifted his hands, palms out-
ward.
"Lan' name, who d t?" he exclaimed
aloud. "Who datin ein panjingeries?
Ile gene jine de cir as!" His hands
fell upon his knees, nd he got to his
feet rheumatically, halting his head
with foreboding. "1 oneye honey, bit

Trouble 'fo' de day 10 done. Trouble,
honey, great trouble. Bald luck, bald

by his festal appearance, Mr. Tibbs

At al table, in a far corner of the room
it large gentleman in a brown frock
coat vtas 'quietly eating his breakfast
and reading the Herald. He was of an
ornatei presence, though entirely neat.
A sumptuous eXpanse of linen exhibit-
ed itself between the lapels of his low
cut waistcoat, and an inch of bedia-
monded breastpin gjittered there like
an ice ledge on a snowy mountain side.

following a colliog more fashionable in
the eighteenth ceptury than in the lat-
ter decades . of the nineteenth,. had
shaken the hlust of Carlow from his
feet some three year previously at the
strong request of the authorities. The
Herald bad been particularly insistent
upon his deportation. In the local
phrase, Harkless had "run him out V
town." Perhaps! it was because the
Herald's opposition, as the editor had
explained at the time, bad been "mere-
ly moral and impersonal," and the ed-
itor hod confessed to a liking for the
unprofessional qualities of Mr. Watts,
that there was but a slight embarrass-
ment When the two gentlemen met to-
day. His breakfast finished, Harkless
went over 16 the other and extended
his hand. Cynthia, the waitreso, held
her breath arid clutched the back of a
chair, However, Mr. Watts made no
motion toward his well known hip

Hargless rescued the • rose, pinned it
on his coat himsela with 'the internal
observation that the, red haired wait-
ress was the queekest creature in the
village, and set forth upon his holiday.
Mr. Lige Willetts, a stalwart bach-
elor, the most eligible in, Carlow, mid
a habitual devotee of Minnie Briscoe,
was seated on the veranda. when Ilark-
less timed in at the gate of the briele
house. "The ladies will be down right
off," he said, greeting the editor's cool
finery with a perceptible agitation and
the editor himself with a friendly shake
of the hand. "Mildy says to wait out
hero."
There was a faint rustling within the
house, the swish of draperies ou the
stairs, a delicious whispering, when
light feet descend, tapping, to hearts
that beat an answer, the telegraphic
message: "We come! We come! We
are near! We are neaten Lige Wil-

thought the latter was good looking -un-
til he saw him step to the door to take

strange, low, tense voice, "Gooii mora -

least: "Every one in the world, leceept
ns two, died last night. It is a solemn
thing, but I am very happy."
They walked, Minnie and Mr. Wil-
letts, a little distance in front of the
others. Harkless could not have told
afterward :whether they rode or walked
or floated on an airship to the court-
house. All he knew distincily was
that a divinity In a pink shirt waist
