� CARRIAGE MRKER
Suffered ten years from weak heart
bion and nervousness.
�Cdred by Milburn's Heart
and Nerve Pills.
No trade or profession is exempt from
disease or derangement of the heart and
nerves. The pressure of work and the
mental worry are bound to produce aeri=e
consequences sooner or later.
Mr. Donald Campbell, the well-known
carriage maker of Harriston, Ont., said:
"I have been troubled off and on for ten
years with weak action of my heart and
nervousness. Frequently my heart would
palpitate and flutter with great violence,
alarming me exceedingly, Often I had
sharp pains in my heart and could not sleep
well at night. Igot a box of Milburn's
Heart and Nerve Pills and from them de-
rived almost immediate benefit. They re-
stored vigor to my nerves and strengthened
my entire system, removing every symptom
of nerve or heart trouble, and enabling me
to get restful, healthy sleep."
Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pills cure
palpitation, throbbing, dizzy and faint
spells, nervousness, sleeplessness, weak-
ness, female troubles, after effects of grippe,
etc. Price 50c. a box or 3 for $1.25, at all

THE BUMBLEBEE.
He Does Not Fear the Cold and Is Found
Even In the Arctic Region.
In St. Nicholas there is an article on
"The Bumblebee," written by Barney
Hoskin Standish. Mr. Standish says:
This chunky, hairy, noisy fellow is king
of the cold. He stays with us summer
and winter and is said to prefer the arctic
region to the tropics. I do not doubt this,
for he will sleep out of doors any cold
night of spring or fall without asking for
an extra blanket. Indeed, he is homeless
for nine or ten months of the year, lodg-
ing wherever night overtakes him, on a
blossom, a leaf and even upon the ground.
If he has any choice in the matter I think
be prefers the thistle, where the spines are
thickest. Perhaps he is aware that these
stingers will guard him from the skunk
and the snake while his own are in a body
stiffened by cold and drowsy with sleep.
There are three kinds of bumblebees
reared in a nest—queens, drones and work-
ers. The queens alone survive the winter.
They apparently spend the first few weeks
of sprig waiting for red clover to bloom,
the first-flossom of which is the signal for
nest building. Before this they visit the
willows, hum a soft.bass about the lilacs,
thrust their long tongues into the honey-
s es a_nd. grow fat at the exhaustless
no of the Water -leaf, and then the
play.day ends and labor begins.
Nest building with them does not mean
nest construction. One bee alone could
not well do that. Besides she is in a big,
bustling hurry now. She has actually seen
a clover blossom. Out and in among the
dead, matted grasses of last year's growth
she goes, hunting perhaps for the aban-
doned nest of a field mouse. It will be re-
membered that those little animals build
upon the surface of the ground soft nests
of grasses, in which they winter. From
these they have runways leading in differ-
ent directions. The bee goes down into
the dead grass, scrambling on as best she
may, until she finds one of these runways,
following it up to the nest. If 1t is occu-
pied, she goes elsewhere; if not, the mouse
nest straightway becomes a bee's nest and
the little creature begins her preparations
for housekeeping.
She now collects a mass of pollen in
which to deposit an egg. As the egg
batches and the baby bee grows she keeps
this mass moistened with honey, and he
helps himself, eating out a cavity larger
than a white bean. In this he spins a com-
plete cocoon. When this 18 done, he takes
a long nap, in which he ores from a
grub into a bumblebee, w wings and
legs. Meantime the parent removes the
thin coating of pollen from the upper half
of the cocoon and appirrently�spreads a
- -este--AliKSSF $$ srtesess.wlek ' zr-a `,.,ti
to keep out moisture. She is also now
busy collecting more pollen and laying
eggs in it and constructing a rude cell or
two In which to place honey, as if for a
rainy day. Tho first bees that hatch are
worker bees, and at this time are downy,
pale and bahyliko in appearance and bo-
havior. In later summer queens and
drones are raised.

THE PASSING OF THE MAGI.
tlpon the shore where sweeps the tide of night
They dress their broad pavilions bung with
gold
And purple, whose high star tipped poles
uphold
Strange shield and gonfalon. Each lean seer,
Night
High duke of Egypt, crouches in affright,
Garbed in fantastic tatters, mart and old,
And strains his hungry eyes across the fold,
Mumbling delirious litanies of blight,
Till at the call some lowering Ethiop form,
Its black limbs shackled with a star linked
trail,
Tilts its great urn until the moonlight warm
Pours on the vineyards of the sleeping vale.
But with the flood the chapel's white walls
' glow,
The tents dissolve, far cymbals clank for woe.

A STRANGE QUEST.
"Grigson, the governor wants you in
the private office. Cut along!"
Mr. Merrick was not alone. By the side
of his table sat a Mr. Bernard, a client of
ours who had lately returned from south
Africa with a large fortune.
"Take a scat, Grigson," said Mr. Mer-
rick. "Mt. Bernard has something to say
to you," he continued, "and in accepting
or declining his proposals you must judge
for yourself."
I turned to our client. He was a man
of about two or three and thirty, tall and
muscular, with a face burned almost black
by exposure to the African sun. He had
come back with upward of a million, and
his fortune had been made in a little un-
der five years.
"Would you be willing to leave Mr.
Merrick's service and enter mine?" ho
said, looking mo all over with a pair of
keen gray eyes.
"That depends upon ofronmstanoes," I
replied cautiously.
"Tho matter is a private one," he said
briskly. "I should require your services
for six months—perhaps longer. The pay
is $25 a week, with a $500 bonus at the
end. If you succeed in doing what I want,
the bonus will lie $2,500. Is that satisfac-
tory?"
"Perfectly," I said, trying not to look
elated. "What is it you want me to do?"
"I want you to find somebody I have
lost sight of. For the next six months I
shall be constantly traveling botween_,ob ro
and South Africa. In the uteautttilie you
will have carte blanche to dofwhat you
think right. I shall leave Mr. Merrick in-
structions to supedy you with whatever
money you require for expenses in addi-
tion to your salary.
"Who is the person you want me to
find?" I asked
"In the first place, the person is a lady, "
he answered. "In appearance she is of a
medium height, with fair hair, blue eyes
and about two or three and twenty years
of age."
"What is her name, and where am I
likely to find hor?" I asked.
"I—I don't know," ho said.
Mr. Merrick pushed his chair back from
the table and began to walk angrily up
and down the room.
"But how am I to find her?" I asked.
"There are millions of girls answering to
your description."
"But there is only ono girl that I want
to find," said Air. Bernard, "and she has
a small wart on her chin right in the cen-
ter. You can't mistake her."
"Are those all my instructions," I
asked.
• "Yes," said Mr. Bernard, with sudden
energy and sparkling eyes. "You may
think it a mad idea, if you like, my lad,
but I am willing to pay for my madness."
Mr. Bernard's object may or may not
have been a mad idea, but for me it was a
matter of business, and I proceeded to
draw up an elaborate scheme of carrying
it out.
My first step would be to write a gossipy
account of it, without mentioning his
name, and to get it inserted, by means of
ono of the press agencies, in the loading
papers all over the world. This sort of
thing costs money, but it is not so diffi-
cult as might be supposed. There was a
touchof romance about it which would
commend it readily to the press.
Moreover, it would be easy to interest
the police in it, and although it would
not be advisable to let thein take it in
hand officially it would only be necessary
to make it known that a handsome reward
would be paid to any one who could help
us.
I sketched all this out elaborately to let
Mr. Bernard see I was thoroughly in earn-
est about it and called upon him the fol-
lowing morning, as arranged.
"That looks all right, Grigson," he said
genially. "If you carry it out vigorously,
wo ought to find her, wherever she is.
And now I suppose you want to know a
yarn,
"Before I went to Africa I was in a city
office. I got in with a bad lot, and I helped
myself to some of their money.
"Luckily for mo," ho went on, "I was
found out and sacked. I began to go
straight away to the dogs. In two years I
was a ragamuffin, too lazy to do a week's
steady work and without any self respect,
I was desperate and very nearly starving.
"Ono winter's morning I was hanging
about Euston station, partly for shelter,
partly on the chance of picking up an odd
job to got a glass of beer. It was thorn I
saw her. She was dressed in black, neat-
ly, but poorly. By her side was a cheap tin
traveling trunk. Sho had evidently ar-
rived by ono of the trains from the north
and had probably never been in London
before, for she looked round her with a be-
wildered expression and seemed afraid to
move.
"At last she spoke to one of the officials,
and I overheard the conversation. She
had lost her purse in the train and was
entirely without funds. Tho man hap-
pened to be a surly dog and not disposed
to givo any advice.
"Some decent instinct prompted me to
come to the rescue, and I offered to carry
her box to the address she wanted to reach.
Two minutes later wo were trotting along
the Boston road side by side, I with the
box on my shoulder. She seemed glad to
have somebody, even a ragamuffin, to talk
to and chatted away quite freely concern-
ing hor little troubles.
"Sho was an orphan and had been edu-
cated at ono of the big charity schools in
the north. Now she had obtained a place
as governess in a private family and was
looking forward with hope and dread to
her first situation.
"When we reached the house, I put the
box down on the steps and turned to go.
'If you will wait a minute,' she said, col-
oring a little, 'I will borrow some money.'
"I think I almost forgot I was in rags,
for I Bald: 'Please don't. It's a long time
einem I had a chance of behaving like a
gentletnan.' She held out hor hand in re-
-,ply and seemed aa if shat wanted to say
something, but couldn't trust herself. f
"I knetq' what she aneant, Grigson," h
0.01 smphittioally. "Sho meant, 413
t -p, man! Pull yourself together! Don't
go under!' And, by George! I didn't.
"Now perhaps you can understand why
I want to find her. She saved me, body
r.nd soul, and I'd givo half my fortune to
know that she was well and happy."
The house to which Mr. Bernard had
carried her box had been pulled down and
replaced by an enormous draper's shop.
With much difficulty I got into communi-
cation with the people to whom she had
gone as governess, and from them I learn-
ed her name, Dorothy Floyd, but they
knew nothing of her present address.
But six months passed by before I could
get any further. In the meantime Mr.
Bernard and I had become fast friends.
I learned that even millionaires have
their troubles, and Mr. Bernard had an
aggravating one in the shape of a sister-
in-law, his brother's widow. In addition
to snaking her a very handsome allowanoe
ho was edamating her children and made
frequent presents, but she was never sat-
isfied. She seethed to rte one of those
greedy people who would help themselves
to all there is and then ask for more. She
was constantly hintingthat $10,000 a year
was not sufficient,
But the search for Miss Floyd was never
lost sight of. .After all, 1t was a sheer ac-
cident that brought the in contact with
her, nothing more original than jumping
into a railway carriage where she was.
Luckily she and I *ere the only occupants.
I knew her at once. Tho tiny wart on
her chin, so far•from being a disfigure-
ment, lent a curiously piquant and de-
cided expression to her face.
"Miss Floyd, I think?" I said, raising
my hat.
She bowed slightly In acquiescence.
"Thank goodness!" I said. "I've been
hunting for you all over London—in fact,
all over the world."
"Do you represent Mr. Bernard?" she
said, with flashing eyes.
"Yes," I replied, wondering how she
could know his name, for it had not ap-
peared in any advertisement,
"May I ask what Mr. Bernard wants
with me?" she asked haughtily. "These
inquiries of his have been an annoyance to
me for several months. I don't wish to
have anything to do with him."
This was so unexpected that I hardly
knew what to say next. However, I re-
minded hor of the day she first camp to
London and told her how great an effect
that chance meeting had had on his life
afterward.
"It seems to rne," she said, "that I
know more about him than you do. Are
you aware that ho is a married man?"
This was such a surprise that I could
only look incredulous.
"Yes," she continued icily; "by one of
those queer'acciden5s which even million-
aires can't escape I happen to be acquaint-
ed with his wife. From hor I have learned
much concerning him, and I did not think
it advisable to communicate. Perhaps aft-
er this you will induce him to stop his in-
quiries. s'
The train had stopped at a suburban
station, and without another word she left
the carriage. I, without much difficulty,
discovered that she was governess in a
young ladies' school in the neighborhood
Mr. Bernard listened to my news with a
frowning face and after a few minutes
said:
"Well, I think I know what to do.
What is her address, Grigson"
He had taken out his pocketbook to
note it down, but he had not denied that
he was a married man.
"I shall not give it," I said firmly.
"Why not?"
"Because I won't place a poor girl who
appears to be almost friendless at the
mercy of a rich man."
"Very well; I can manage without it."
And, without another word, he left me.
I calculated that tho interview had cost
me exactly $2,000. I was entitled to a
bonus of $500, but if I had placed him in
direct communication with hor I should
have been entitled to $2,500. Nevertheless
I don't regret it.
Two days passed without word or sign
from Mr. Bernard. On the third day ho
drove up to my rooms just as I was finish-
ing breakfast.
"First of all," he said, "here ill your
check. And many thinks for all you have
done."
It was made out for the full amount,
but I laid it doubtfully on the table.
"Now I suppose you want to know how
things stand," he said. "All the trouble
we have been put to has been caused by
my excellent sister-in-law. Because she
wad so greedy she couldn't bear to have a
rival in my favor. As Miss Floyd told
you, by one of those odd accidents that no-
body can account for she is slightly ac-
quainted with Mrs. Bernard. She sent for
Miss Floyd, spoke of me as her own hus-
band and told her a number of lying tales
to the effect that I was no safe frie d for
a young girl.'",
"AndThave you explained all this to
atirr•".n. i .FWt'tatit:r.•k_b o •, r.='
sx
'Oh, yes," he said, with a twinkle in
his eyes. "And I think she is rather glad
to know the truth. What do you think of
her, Grigson?"
Three months later Mr, Bernard called
upon me to be best man.—London An

Anaemia, or Bloodlessness.
Its Victims are Pale in Color, Subjeot to
Dizziness, Palpitation of the Heart and
Other Distressing Symptoms.
From the, Echo, Plattsyille, Ont.
Anwmia,whioh literally means bloodless•
nese, is prevalent to an alarming extent
among young girls and young women of the
present day, and is a fruitful source of "de-
cline" and consumption. The symptoms
of this trouble are many, but among the
most noticeable are pallor of the fame, lips
and gums, shortness of breath on alight
exertion, dizziness, severe headache, weak-
ness of the vital organs, palpitation of the
heart, and dropsical swelling of the limbs.
The more of these symptoms shown, the
greater the necessity for prompt treat-
ment, Among those who have suffered
from sawmia and found a cure is Miss'
Emily Webb, a young lady residing near
Wolverton, Ont. Miss Webb says:— "My j
illness first manse on when. I was about 16
years of age. My complexion was a pale
waxy color; I was troubled with general
weakness, dizziness and palpitation of the
heart. I was placed under medical treat• i
ment, but the medicine prescribed by the
dootor did not appear to do me the slightest
good. As time went by I was slowly but
surely growing worse. I was unable to do
any work about the house, and my limbs
would tremble to suoh an extent at the
slightest exertion that I could scarcely stand
upon my feet. Then my stomach became
so weak that I vomited almost everything I '
ate; I grew despondent and feared I would
not recover. While in this condition a
friend urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills and I followed the advice. After I
had used two boxes I noticed an improve-
ment and my heart was gladdened with
the hope of renewed health. At the end of
six boxes my appetite had fully returned,
ann with it strength, Dolor to my cheeks,
and brightness to the eyes. I still continued
taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills until I had
taken in all twelve boxes, and 1 can truth-
fully assert that I am healthier andstrong-
er than I ever was before, I owe this to
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I would urge
ail girls who suffer as I did to give them a
fair trial.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done mote
to make strong, healthy, rosy•cheeked,
bright-eyed girls than any other medi'-ine
ever discovered, and mothers should insist
upon their daughters taking an occasional
course of this medicine. Sold only in boxes

people prefer leprosy to yellow fever," was
the dry reply ; "but if I had to have both I
should take the yellow fever first."

Worse Than slugging.
"Have you heard about Tingleman, the
bicycle man ufact uror?"
"No, what about him?"
"An awful thing happened to him night
before last. It seems that he went to Ir-

to start him on the
roadinllI.'"
"Well?"
"You know the tragedian prizes his art
above all worldly returns."
"I never heard hits say so, but the looks
of his clothes would indicate that such
was the case."
"Yes. Well, Tingleham's proposition
was that he should bear all the expenses of
a gorgeous production, while Irvington
Booth was to have the privilege of choos-
ing his own company, ordering such cos-
tumes and scenery as he wanted and go-
ing ahead to suit himself, but there was
one condition."
"What was that?"
"When Richard came upon the stage,
just before the fight with Richmond, he
was to yell: 'A bike, a bike! My king-
dom for a bike!' instead of calling for a
horse."
"And when he made that proposition I
suppose the actor slugged him, did he?"
"Slugged him? No. He insisted on
reciting the whole play to him to see how
it would go. 1t required four strong Wren
to carry poor old Tingleman out, and the,
deal is off. "—Cleveland Leader,

John shook Mahood sadly and passed on.
The listener was shocked. He had never
heard anything so bluntly cruel. In a few
moments he expressed his feelings some-
what warmly.
"He scents like an honest fellow and de-
serves encouragement," he concluded.
