symptoms of exhausted nerves.

people db not always* realize the
seriousness of nervous diseases.
They do not think of the helpless-

result of neglecting such ailments.
Because of its extraordinary Cone

considered the one great treatment
for disorders of this nature. Not

They found Mr. tisbee in the yard,
talking to Judge Brisgoe. As thew
drove up and before the horses had
quite stopped Helen leaped to the
ground and ran to the old scholar with
both her hands outstretched to him.
He looked timidly at her and +took the
hands she gave him; then he produced
from his pocket a yellow telegraph en-
velope, watching ber anxiously as she
received it. however, she seemed to
attach no particular importance to it,
.and instead of opening it leaned to-
ward him, still holding one of his
hands. `* ` '
"These awful old men!" Harkless
groaned inwardly as, he handed the
horses over to the judge. "I dare say
he'll kiss her too." But when the ed-
itor and Mr. Willetts had gone it was
Helen who kissed Fisbee.
"They're coming out to spend the
evening, aren't they?" asked Briscoe,
nodding to the young men as they set
off down the road.
"Lige has to come whether he wants
to or not," Minnie laughed rather con-
sciously. "It's his turn tonight to look
after Dir. Harkless."
"I guess he won't mind corning," said
the judge.
"Well," returned his daughter, glanc-
ing at Helen, who stood apart reading
the telegram to Fisbee, "I know if he
follows Mr. Harkless he'll get here
pretty soon after supper—as soon as

studied how newspapers aro made. I
know I could have earned a wage. I
could have helped you make it a daily."'
He searched in vain for a trace of rail-

"I don't understand," he said. "I

breath with a sharp sigh and, cover-
ing her face with her hands, sank back
upon the bench. "I will not cry," she
said, ,the

did.
"My blessed child!" he cried in great
distress and perturbation. "What hate

"Call me 'small' all you like," she
answered. "I don't care. It isn't that.

He felt something strike at hie heart.
In the sudden sense of dearth he bad
no astonishment that she sbould be-
tray such agitation over her departure
from a place she had known so little
and friends who certainly were not
past of her life. He rose to his feet,
and, resting his arm against a syca-
more, stood staring away from her at
nothing. She did not move. There
was a long silence. He bad wakened
