A Wondrous Power In
Ten Cents,
A few days ago an Ontario druggist
said : "The ladies are buying more
Diamond Dyes just now than in past
years. They come to me and buy one
package as an experiment, and find the
lye so easy to use that they now color
most of their old clothing, and come
out with new gowns, cloaks, jackets,
and suits for the whole family. In my
experience of 2() year's as a druggist, I
must say, that Diamond Dyes are the
only package dyes that have lived and
worked themselves all to the highest,
point of popularity."
Beware of imit:tLion package dyes,
they are frauds and deceptions, and
when used cause a vast amount of
teonhie and disappointment. Ask for
the Diamond ; see that the name
'Diamond"

I had a headache. 1 don't see any
especial reason why a young man of
good moral character and temperate
habits. who takes eight hours" sleep
seven nights in the week should have a
headache, but I did, It was one of those
popping kind of headaches that makes
one feel as if his lungs had gone w his
head and they were trying to expand
there about four diameters, at Intervals
of a minute. 1 believe they call them
nervous headaches, but I fancy they
wouldn't be any more agreeable by any
other name. Then my heart was Rs
heavy as lead, and once or twice as I
walked along I really feared it was
going to pull loose from its fastenings
and drop down upon my duodenum, or
whatever it is that the doctors tell us in
concealed in our persons in that neigh-
borhood. Possibly it was the heavy
heart that gave me the headache. But
no. I recall now that I was going to
sec Kitty, the one girl in the whole
world that made It any kind of a world
for me. and we had had a slight mis-
understanding. It wasn't the head that
gave me the heart ache ; it was the
heart that gave me the headache. I te-
lieve I said that I took eight hours' sleep
seven nights in the week. At this point
I wish to modify that statement. in
the week past I had done so only six
nights, for the night before the day
0
n which I was on my way to see Kitty
we had disagreed with each other. I
don't think I slept at all.
I was going to see the young woman
and settle the matter finally, and
though I was a promising young law-
yer ready to make a case for anybody
else, I had no papers in this case, and
was going empty handed. I didn't even
have so much as my brief with me.
At the door Mrs. Mfltby—Mrs, Mfltby
is Kitty's mother, and a most exem-
plary and motherly soul—met me and on
the instant started back in amazement.
"Why, John"—she always called me
John, for she had known me since I was
a mere baby—"Why, John," she ex-
cIatmed, "whatever is the matter with
you ? You lock like you were going to
have a bad spell."
"Oh, that will be all right in a day or'
so," I replied, evasively. "I have a
revere headache. Is your daughter at
Nome ?"
"You mean Kitty ?" she asked in sur-
prise,
Of course," said I, "You haven't
any other daughter, have you ?" and 1
.made
believe e
to smile.
"Oh, I didn't know," she stammered.
"Didn't know what ?" and I tried to
smile agsin, 'Didn't know whether you
had another daughter or not ?"
"Why, to be—certainly, I know that
Why, how queer you talk," she rattled
on half hysterically, and laughing one
" IT WAS ONE OF TIIOSE POPPING I{EAD-
ACIIES-"
rf those creepy kind of laughs one
dreams of when he hasn't eaten tilt
right thing for supper. "Are—are—you
quite sure, John," she broke out excited-
ly, "that that headache hasn't gone to
3 -our head ?"
It was cruel to tease her, and with
a supreme effort I talked rationally to
her for a few minutes—they seemed like
hours to me, and then she said she
would go and tell Kitty.
As for myself, I went into the little
earlor and wafted. How sweet and
pretty it looked, and how like a sand-
stone on a gold setting I felt, Every-
thing was as I had seen ft so often, the
picture of her grandpa over the cottage
piano ; the frame in which 'my picture
had been for so many months, but empty
now on the corner of the mantel ; the
large photograph of St. Cecilia looking
heavenward, as we had so often told
each other we always felt when we were
together ; the two big friendly chairs in-
viting each other to come nearer, which
we always sat in when I first came in
the evening, and the snug little sofa
n the corner that was always my point
of departure when I told her good -night,
and went my way back to my own
heerless apartments in a homeless
boarding house. I looked at them all,
nd as the drowning man sees all his
ins before him, so did 7 see all these
hinge quite sober, and multiplied by a
housand as the greatest hlessines of
iy lite. Then I shut my ry'ee. I couldn't
c ip it. My head felt as if a dozen set
f lungs had got Into it and were doing
xpansion turns for a prize.
I opened my eyes suddenly at the
ound of a voice.
"Mother told me you wish to see me,"
said, as chilly as if It had been left
ut over night in the frost.
"Oh, KI—" I began, as 7 stood up he-
re her. "I beg your pardon," I con-
nued, "your mother was quite right,
did wish to see you•"
' I can scarcely understand why," she
ent on, "after what occurred last
alit. Still, you may be able to ex-
aln, and I am willing to listen, at
ast for a few minutes, as I have an en -
gement," she added, with the faintest

morning and told me he would .not be

Three quarters of an hour, and a whole
llfetime thereafter !
"Isn't It enough that you should have
killed me." I said, "without being so
eager to cut me up ?"
"I was merely defending a friend,"
she retorted.
"And you claim Kilmer as a friend ?"
"I certainly do: Isn't he a friend of
Yrurs ?"
"Not at all. If he were, he would not
have interfered with my happiness as
he has done."
"I beg your pardon," she said. 'I
didn't know he had."
"Didn't I tell you last night he was
a scoundrel, intent only upon"separat-
lrlb us ?" I asked, hotly.
- "And didn't I tell you that I would
pet mit no friend of mine to be called a
scoundrel by any one without resenting
it to the utmost ?" she replied.
"But I did call him that," I insisted.

.A giggle from a girl is dreadfu:
enough under any circumstances, but at
this time it was positively galling.
' Great Scott !" I exelaimed, stagger-
ing to my feet, "am I then a twofold
dupe ? Are the returns all in ? Have the
back counties been heard from, Miss
Mfltby ?" and I buried my face In my
rends.
I could hear he click of the frame as
she set it back on the mantle, and a
mild sort of a dull thud as she dropped
11,to the big chair.
"Mr. Kilmer is at least enough of a
g: ntleman, scoundrel though you sae
le is," she said, "not to talk to a lady
as you do,"
"Oh, K1—I beg your pardon, Met
111iltby," I apologized, "I hope you will
<rget that I spoke so rudely. Indeed,
did not mean it."
"I don't see what objection you have
, Mr. Kilmer paying me any attention
e sees fit to pay," she told me for an-
wer. "I have known him for a long
!me, and he is held in the highest
$teem by every one except you."
"But I have known you quite as
ng as he has," I contended,
"Which is hardly a reason for act -
ng as you are now acting," she said.
Does he love you ?" I asked, and I
ould feel a thousand throbs in my head
t once.
"1 presume not," she replied, smiling
"If he does he has been too modest to
y no."
"Do you love him ?"
"That Is my own affair," she answer-
freezingly.

AN EXCEPTIONAL CASE.
" Facllts descensus Averni." It is
easy to sink Into sin ! The philosophers
and divines are at one upon that pbint.
The ways of vice the ready greased for
launching ; a tap with a mallet, nay, a
push with a finger does it ; and we slide
almost unconsciously into the river that
leads' to the sea. But with crime it is
different; not necessarily with the mere
Infraction of the taw, for that le done by
the man who smuggles a volume of the
Tauchnitz Library into England (a
vc ry wrong thing to do), or by the young
woman who declares her boy to be
younger than he is in order that she
may buy a railway ticket for trim at
half price (a very mean thing to do),
but these things are not, save in the
moral sense, cremes.
A man may take commission on bar-
gains when he has no right to them, or
even adulterate the liquor he sells, and
yet may so conceal from himself the
baseness of his act, under some shib-
boleth of ' the custom of the trade,"
that his conscience is not tainted be-
yond that point. He would hesitate to
commit an actual crime almost as much
as an honest man.
It is quite possible, indeed it often
happens, that a man who lives pros-
perously and dies " respected " has de-
served to be in Newgate more than
many a man who is there ; but in the
latter's case there has been at least a
certain recklessness which has been
wanting in that of the former.
These, as a student of human Mature,
have always been my views, and the
story I am about to relate is no con-
tradiction to them, but only the excep-
tion which proves the rule. If I had not
held them with such force of conviction,
matters would not perhaps have gone
SJ far towards the bad as they did go,
but, on the other hand, there might not
min et it than 1 aheuid a
