A day or two after the foregoing interview, Jelin came in and laid an open letter:in;front of David, who was at his deaf aid dropped languidly, into a chair without speaking. Mr. Har - um read the letter, smiled a little, and turning in his chair, took off his lookedtheo glasses and at young niai'f; who was staring abstraetedly at the floor. "1 ben rather expectin' you'd git somethin' like this. What be you goin' to do about it?" ' "I don't Icnow," replied John. "I don't like the idei\of leasing 'the property in any case, and• certainly not on the terms they offer; but it is lying idle, and I'm paying taxes on it---" ;`Wa'al, es >i said, I ben expectin' fer some time they'd be after ye in some shape.

I wouldn't lease it if it was mine an' I wanted to sell it, an' yet, in the long run, you might git more. out of it—an' then agin you mightn't," he added. "I don't know anything about it," said John, putting his handkerchief to his mouth in a fit of coughing. David looked at him with a frown.

The speaker was interrupted by another fit of coughing, which -left the sufferer very red in the face, and elicited from him the word which is always greeted . with laughter in a theater. "Say," said David, after a moment in which he looked anxiously at his companion, "I don't like that cough o' your'n." 1 SINCE 11870 14y7to-the:Wiist kiLY SERVICE RONTO (Union Station) 5 P . 4.

"I don't want -to go away," he said, "and if - I did, how could I leave the office?" "No," responded Mr. Harum, "you don't want to make a move of any kind that you don't actually have to, 'an' that's the reason fer makin' one. F'm what the doe said; an' f'm what I c'n see, you got to git ,out 0' this dum'd climate," roving his hand to- ward the window, against which the sleet was -beating, "fer a spell; an', as fur 's the office goes, Chet Tim- son 'd be tickled to death to come on an' help out while you're away, an' I guess 'mongst us we c'n mosey along some gait. I ain't quite to the bone- yard yet myself," he added with a grin. Theoun ar man sat -for a moment y g or two with brows contracted, and pulling thoughtfully at his moustache. "There is that matter," he said, pointing to the letter on the desk. "Wa'al," said David, "the' ain't no tearin'. hurry ''bout that; an' anyway, I was goin' to make you a suggestion to put the matter into my hands to some extent." • "Will you take it?" said John quickly. "That is exactly what I should wish in any case.7' "If you want I should," replied Mr. Harum. "Would you waist` to give full power attorney .br jest have me say 't.i1 i1 was instructed to act for ye?" , "I think a better way would be' to put the pproperty in your name alto- gether,' said John. "Don't you think so?„ "Wa'al," said David, thoughtfully ,s well be makin' up in up your "I don't thoroughly enjoy it my- after amoment, "I hadn't thought of self," was the rejoinder. that, `but mebbe I could handle the ' "Seems to be kind •o' growin' on ye, don't it." . - "I don't know," said John. "I was talkin' with Doc Hayes a- bout ye," said Daviel, "an' he allow- ed you'd ought to have your shoes off an' run loose a spell." John smiled a little, but did not reply. - - "Spoke to you about it, didn't he" continued David. "Yes." "An' you told him you couldn't git away?" eyes !le "Didn't tell him you wouldn't go if you could, did ye?" "I only told him I couldn't go," said John. - David sat for a moment thought- fully tapping the desk with his eye- glasses, and then said with his char- acteristic chuckle: "Ihad a letter f'm Chet Timson yestidy." • .John looked up at him, failing to see the connection. "Yes," said David, "he's out fer a job, an' the way he writes I guess the dander's putty well out of him. I reckon the' hain't ben nothin' much but hay in his manger fer quite a spell," remarked Mr. Harum. "H'm!" said John, raising his brows, conscious of a humane but very faint interest in Mr. Timsomw's affairs. Mr. Harum got out a cigar, and, lighting it, gave a puff or two, and continued with what struck the younger man as a. perfectly irrelevant question, It really seemed to him as if his senior were making conversa- tion. "How's Peleg doin' these days?" was, the query. ` "Very well," was the reply. "C'n do most ane -thin' 't's nec'sary, can't he?" - A': brief interruptions followed upon the entrance of a man, who, after saying good -morning, laid ` a note on David's desk, asking for the money on it. Mr. Harum handed it back, indicating John with a motion of his thumb. ` The latter took it, looked at the face and back; marked his initials on it with a pencil, .and the man went out to the counter. - "If you was fixed so 't you could git away fer a spell," said David a moment or two- after the customer's departure, "where would you like to go?" "I have not thought about it," said John rather listlessly. "Wa'al, ?pose you think about it a little now, if you bain't got no pressin' engagement. Bas'nis don't semi to be very rusbin' this mornin'." "Why?" said John. t "Because," said David impressively, ""you're goin' somewhere right off, quick 's you c'nu git ready, and you matter better if you was to do that. 7 know the parties, an' if the' was any bluflin' to be- done either side, mebbe it' would be, better if they thought I was playin' my own hand." At that point Peleg appeared and asked Mr. Lenox a question which took the latter to the teller's counter. David sat for some time druinming on his desk with the fingers of both hands. A succession of violent coughs came from . the -front room. His mouth and brows contracted in a wince, and rising, he put on his coat and hat and went slowly out of the bank. CHAPTER XLV The Vaterland, was advertised to sail at one o'clock, and it wanted but fifteen or twenty minutes of the hour. After assuring himself that his be- longings were all together .in his state -room, John . made his way to Stomach Troubles, are to due Acidity Tells Safe, Certain, Speiedy Relief For Acid - Indigestion. So-called stomach troubles, such as indigestion, gas, sourness, stomach- ache and inability to retain food are in probably nine cases out of ten, simply evidence that excessive secre- tion of acid is taking place in 'the stomach, causing the formation of gas and acid indigestion. Gas distends the stomach and causes that full, oppressive, burning feeling sometimes known as hcartbure, while the acid irritates • and inflames the delicate lining of the st:.mach. The trouble lies entirely iaMie excess de- velopment or secretion of acid. To stop, or prevent this souring of the food contents of the stomach and to neutralize the acid, and make it bland and harmless, a teaspoonful of bisurated nia'gn $ia, a good and effec- tive corrector of acid stomach, should be taken in a quarter of a glass of hot or cold water after eating or whenever gas, sourness or acidity is felt. This sweetens the stomach and neutral' yes the acidity in a few mo- ments .and is a perfectly harmless and inexpensive • remedy to use. - An antiacid, such as bisurated magnesia which can be obtained from any druggist in either powder or tablet form enables the stomach to i do its work properly without the aid Iof artificial. digestants. Magnesia comes in several forms, so be certain to ask - for and take only Bisurated Magnesia, > which is especially prepared for the above :purpose. the upper deck and leaning against the rail, watched the bustle of em- barkation, somewhat interested in the people .standing about, among whom it was difficult in instances to dis- tinguish the passengers from those who were present to say farewell. Near him at the moment were two people, apparently , man and wife, of middle age and rather distinguished oppearance, to whom presently ap- proached, , with some evidence of hurry and with outstretched hand, a very well dressed and pleasant look- ing • man. "Ah, here you are, Mrs. Ruggles," John . heard. him say as he shook hands. - Then followed some commonplaces of good wishes and farewells, and in reply to a question which John did' not catch, he heard the lady addressed as Mrs, Augg1es say, "Oh, didn't you see her? We left her on the lower 'deck a few minutes ago. Ah, here she Comes" The man turned . and, advanced a step to meetthe person in question. John's eyes • involuntarily followed the movement, and as he saw her approach his heart contracted sharply: it was Mary Blake. He'turned away quick- ly, and as the, collar of his ulster was about his face, for the air of the January day was very keen, he thought that she had not recognized him. A • moment later - he went aft around the deck -house, and going for- ward to the smoking -room, seated himself therein, and took the pas- senger list out of his pocket. He had , already scanned it rather cur- sorily, having but the smallest ex- pectation of coming upon a familiar name, yet feeling sure that, had hers been there, it could not have escaped him. Nevertheless, he now ran his eye over the columns with eager scrutiny, _.nd the hands which held, the paper shook a. little. . There was no name in the least like Blake. It occurred to him that by some chance or error hers might have been omitted, when his eye caught the fallowing: William Ruggles .... New York. Mrs. Ruggles „ n Mrs. Edward Ruggles " It was plain to him then. She was obviously traveling with the people whom she had just joined on deck, and it was equally plain that she was Mrs. Edward Ruggles. When he looked; up the ship was out in, the river. hewing acquaintanhe on an ocean steamer as we did before, so many years • ago? and that the first bit of intelligence that I have had of yqu in all the years since I saw you last should come to me through the pas- senger list?" "Did you ever try to get any?" she asked. "I have always thought it very strange that we should never have heard anything about you." "I went to the house once, some weeks after you had gone," said John, "but the man in charge was out, and the maid could tell me nothing." "A note I wrote you at the time of your father's death," she said, "we found in my small nephew's over- coat pocket after we had been seine time in California; but I wrote a second one before we left New York, telling you of our intended departure. and where we were going." `ft never received it," he said. Neither spoke for a while, and then: "!`Tell 'me of your ., sister and bro- ther-in-law," he said. "My sister is at present living in Cambridge, where' Jack is at college," was the reply; "but poor Julius died two years ago."' "Ah," said John, "I am grieved to hear of Mr. Carling's death. I liked him very much." "He liked you very much," she said, "and often spoke of you."' - There was another period of sil- ence, so long, indeed, as to be some- what embarrassing. None of the thoughts which followedeaeh other in J'ohn's mind was of the sort which he felt like broaching. He realized that the situation was getting awk- ward, and that consciousness added to the confusion of his ideas. But if his companion shared his embarrassment neither her face nor her manner be- trayed it as at last she said, turn- ing, and looking frankly .at him; "You seem very little changed. Tell me about yourself. Tell me something of your life in the last six years.' During the rest of the voyage they were together for a part of every day sometimes with the company of Mrs. William Ruggles, but more of- ten without it, as her husband • claim- , ed much of her attention, and rarely came - on deck; and John, from, time to time, gave his companion pretty inuch the whole history of his later career. But with regard to 'her own life, and, as he noticed, especially the two years since the death of her brother-in-law, he was distinctly re- ticent. She never spoke of her mar- riage or her husband, and after one or two faintly tentative: allusions, John forebore to touch upon those subjects, and was driven to conclude that her experience had not been a happy one. Indeed, in their inter- course there were times when she ap- peared distrait and even moody; but on the whole she seemed to him to be just as he had known and loved her years ago; and all the feeling that he forth a- fresh her then broke for h had had in spite of himself—in spite of the fact that, as he .told himself, it was more hopeless than even abso- lutely so, indeed. CHAPTER XLVI John had been late in applying for his passage, and in consequence, the ship being very full, had had to take what berth he could get, which hap- pend to be in the second cabin. The occupants of these quarters, however, 1 were not rated as second-class pas- sengers. The Vaterland took none such on her outward voyages, and all were on the same footing • as to the fare and the freedom of the ship. The captain and the orchestra ap- peared at dinner in the second saloon on alternate nights, and the only dis- advantage in the location was that it was very, far aft; unless it could be considered a drawback that the furn- ishings were of plain woodland plush instead • of carving, gilding and stamp- ed leather. In _fact, as the voyage proceeded, our friend decided that the after -deck was pleasanter than the one amid -ships, and the cozy second- class - smoking -room more agreeable than the large and gorgeous one for- ward. Consequently, for a while he rarely went across the bridge which spanned the opening between the two - decks. It may be that he had a certain amount of reluctance to encounter Mrs. Edward Ruggles. • The roof of the second cabin deck- house *as, when there was 'not too much wind, a favorite place with him. It was not much frequented, as most of those who spent their time on deck apparently preferred a place nearer amidships. He was sitting there on the morning of the fifth day out, 'locking idly over the sea, with an occasional glance . at the people who were walking on the promenade deck below, or leaning on the rail viich bounded it. He turned at a slight sound behind, him, and rose with his hat in his hand. The flush in his face, as he took the hand which was offered him, reflected the color in the face of the owner, but the grayish brown eyes, which he remem- bered so well, looked into his, a little curiously, perhaps, but frankly and kindly. She was the first to speak. "How do you do, Mr. Lenox," she said. "How ' do you do, Mrs. Ruggles?" said John, throwing up his hands as, at the moment of his rely, a puff of wind blew the cape of his mackintosh over his head. They both' laughed a little (this was their greeting after nearly six years), and sat down. "What a nice place!" she said, look- ing about her. "Yes," said John; "I sit here a good deal when it isn't too windy." "I have been wondering why I did not get a sight of you," she said. "I saw your name in the passenger, list. Have you been ill?" - "I'm in the second cabin," he said, smiling. She looked at him a little incred- ulously, and he explained. "Ah, yes," 'she said, "I saw your . name, but as you did not appear in the dining saloon, I thought you must either be ill or that you did not sail. Did you know that I was on board?" she asked. It was rather an embarrassing question. "I have been intending, he replied rather lamely, "to make myself known to you—that is, to—well, make my presence on board known to you. I got just a glimpse of you before we sailed, when fou came up to speak to a man who had been saying good-bye to Mr. and Mrs. Ruggles. I heard him speak their name, and looking over ` tiie . passenger list I identified you as Mrs.EEdward- Rug- gles." "Ah," she said, looking away for an instant, "I did not know that you had seen me, and .I wondered kow you came to address me as Mrs. Rug- gles now." "That - as how," -said John; and then, after a moment, "it seems rather odd, doesn't it, tbst we should be re- • It was the last night of their voy- age together. The Ruggleaes were to 7 leave the shipthe next morning at Algiers, where they intended to re- main for some time. • "Would you mind going to the after -deck?" he asked. "These peo- ple walking about fidget me," he added rather irritably. She rose, and they made their way aft. John drew a couple of chairs near to the rail. "I don't care to sit down for the present," she said, and they stood looking out at sea for a while in silence. Concluded next week. For mother. father. the hogs and girls.
