CHAPTER IL
Early the resat morning, a naessage
arrived from the Cottage. 'Mrs. Mis-
sle.'s love to is Patience Missle, and
she will be ready to see her at eleven.'
Pu.natually to the hour, I knocked at
the door; but although the church clock
had not finished striking, Robert and
Martha had already arrived. They had
each received a similar message to mine;
and there the three of us sat ha the
small front sitting -room, patiently, yet
anxiously, awaiting our relative's ap-
pearance. We talked constraiaeclly and
in a whisper; but not a word. was said
about the eveuts of the preeeding even-
ing, although I could see very well that
the eggs and. the pettehes ware sitting
heavily on their minds. After we had.
waited a few moments, the door opened,
and Aunt Purpose entered. She was a
diminutive and withered -looking old.
woman, and, with hex shrivelled yel-
low skin, and bleak, twinkling, bead-
like eyes, not unlike a bird, as Mary had
said. She was dressed in a pale laven-
der silk dress, with a large white shawl
thrown across her shoulders, fastened
in the front with an enormous gold
brooch, containing a miniature of Uncle
Job. A front of black hair, done up in-
to little corkscrew curls at each side,
showed from beneath the frill of a cheap
fanciful -looking cap, made up out of
common white net and scraps and ends
of not over -clean white satin ribbon;
and her lean, shrivelled, wrinkled hands
vaere covered with long bleak mittens.
Dear A.unt Purpose!' cried Martha,
emerging from. her usual apathetic
placidity as she demonstratively, and
with exanecessary fervour, kissed her
on each cheek.
'Exactly as I have ever pictured my
uncle's wife!' exclaimed that hypocrite
Robert, seizing her two hands in his
and. warmly shaking them.
' I am Patience, Aunt,I said; and
you see, I am trying to act up to my
name.' This was said with a smile, but
it was meant to be ironical, and. as a
hint to Robert not to hold her hands so
long. Seeing, however, that he persist-
ed. in monopolising them, I stretched
forward, and clasping her right hand
over his, gave it a loving squeeze.
' Thank you, my dears,' saicl the old
lady as her bright eyes twinkled at us
all in turn. " Your welcome is very
vvarna.'
'Allow me.' With gushing politeness,
Robert wheeled. out an arm -chair, in
whioh she seated herself; while after
tha sank on to her knees and, with a
tender little deprecating movera.ent,
arranged. I stool tor her feet.
As soon as quiet was restored and
their fulsome attentions nad come to
an end, she turned to us ; and at once t
we all becarae attentive. I confess it
flashed through my mind that she was
about to say something about the dia-
monds, and know Robert thought the
sante, for such a greedy, grasping look,
came over his face; but no: it was only •
to thank us separately for our little
gttta. Martha snifted, and looked
sheepishly at me; and Robert gave me '
an unkindly triumphant glance when
Aunt added: 'Your blanc -mange was
very usetul, Patience.' (Torn -flour
shape,' I heard Martha mutter beneath
her breath in a perfectly audible whis-
per ; but Aunt did. not heed her.) 'Poor
Aa -el (the black servant) had it for her
supper,' she continued. 'She enjoyed it 1,
so much. She doesn't take very kindly
to the European mode of living.
How thankful I felt that I had. taken
the precaution of skiraming the nailk
before reeking it We sat there for
a long time talking upon different sub-
jects but not a word, or a hint even,
escaped her about the diamonds. I was
impatient to go, and sat, speaking 0
metaphorically, on tenter -hooks, for I h
knew that Mary would let the beauti- s
ful little loin of lamb, that I had got
in for dinner, burn; but I did not caae a
to be the first to rise; and. then Martha t,
and Robert had both behaved so treach-
erously to me, that I did. not think it T
quite prudent to leave them there alone f
with Aunt Purpose. I sat on, and so a
did they, for they seemed quite as re- b
lacteal to leave as I did. At last Aunt s
solved the difficulty by pleading fatigue p
and. dismissing us all at once,
' If there is anything I can do for b
you, Aunt,' 1 said as I rose to go, 'I D
Shall be only ton happy to do it.'—'At v.
any hour of the day or night, I am at t
your service,' in:erposed _Martha with t
a sweet smile; while Robert bowed Ma- s
pressively. Myself and all that I have
are at your command,' he said with re.
one of ins best com.pany airs, that seem-
ed to me to be not only ridiculous, but e
out of place with a relative. He did 10
not have everything his own way, e
though; for as we passed out through in
the porch, I was enabled to point out m
to him the green parrot just finishing st
one of his prized nectarines. He turned, b
away from. the harrowing sight, and b
heard him munn.ur to himself: 'Six- w
pence literally thrown away on that a,
beast of a bird!' tria
The three of us walked on in silence a
until we reached the bend in the road
where Martha would have to part from a
us. 'She must be quite seventy,' ex-
claimed Robert thoughtfully. am
sure her liver is affected ; and with that
jaundiced look about her, 'should never

look of suffering about bar face that
reminds me strongly. of old Thornton,

months atter he came to England.' t
' Poor dear 1' sighed Martha pityingly.
'I am sure I don't wish bar to die ; but w
if she's to suffer much, it would be a w
happy release.' Both Robert and I fa
echoed her pious fervour. We fell

/ most assiduous in keeping her supplie

gate had been appreciated more tha
my delicate little custards and.

them so kindly.

My rumnianons were disturbed b
Robert's retura to the room. In on
hand he earned an old leather cas

outside in Aunt Purpose's email but

voice.
He was very pale, and, in his agi
tation, his hand shook a little as
broke the seal and unfolded it. Then
with a severe look at Martaa, who ha
just heaved a ridiculous little sigh, h
began. It commenced by nanainghi

t tary experts are now inclined to think
h that light steel protection is a failure,
lwv On the other ha,nd, the recent war in
Eastern waters proved the great vel-

uch projectile moves, one might say,
- in a straight line, and its impact at a
, distance of a mile seems almost simul-
taneous with the discharge of the gun.
Snell a shell, passing near a man, will
tear his clothes off, merely from the
windage. If it comes near, though
without hitting him, it will kill him.
He drops dead without the sign of a
wound. Whereas an old-style shell
would burst into a few pieces, the mod-
ern projectile flies into a myriad of
smal fragments, each of them moving
with tremendous velocity. It may eas-
ily be imagined that half a dozen six -
pound Hotchkiss shells finding their

Commander McGiffin speaks of an
extremely novel method of. gun fire
adopted by the Japanese of the 'Yalu
fight. Every gun on board a ship be-
ing aimed. at. an enemy's vessel, the en-
tire battery, joined in one electric cur-
rent, was fired ;lay the pressing of. a
, key. The shock of so many projectiles
fstriking simultaneously is fearful, and
fires are started at once in many places
by the ex.ploding shells. But the most
thrilling incident described by the Cap-
tain was where the Chinese ship, mor-
tally wounded by a shot below the wa-
ter line, dashed with desperation up-
on the foe with intent to ram. Imme-
diately several Japanese vessels
concentrated. their fire upon it, and
just before it could reach the advers-
sary that was its target it plunged
nose downward into the depths of the
sea, its screws revolving in the air as
it disappeared.
'Martha was the first to speak.

timidly.

harp little click, and he slowly and
carefully raised the lid. Both Martha

Killed by a Pumpkin.
John Gaisby, of Laurenceburg, Ind.
was engaged in storing pumpkins in
he lett of his barn Friday and his five -
ear -old, girl was standing near by
etching him. A large pumpkin,
eighing about 30 pounds, rolled fatten

quite at peace with her; but it was
really quite provoking that she did not

Robert's prognostication was fulfilled
sooner than we had expected; but, it was
bronchitis, and not jaundice, that, took
her from us, her Indianised constitution
not being able to stand the severity of
ono of our Nettlethorpe winters. She
was attacked quite auddenly, and was
dead in a revy hours. We were a/1 three
et us in the house shortly after she had
breathed her fast, Robert reeking him-
self dreadfully officious,

ly. Aunt, Purpose, told me so when

and. so did mine. "they're left to hita,

city man to the daughter of a naval

A CLEVER TRICK.
Fire Eating Not So ExtroordlnarY Milan
You Know now to »0 Ir.
Recent exhibitions in Paris theaters
by two young men, said to excel in
their line anything of the kind that
had been seen, attracted the attention
of the French press. Standing on the
open stage, without any 'apparatus in
sight, they caused long and brilliant
flames to dart from the tips of their
fingers, and also, apparently from their
mouths, for a considerable length of
time—certainly half a minute. The
method of producing these startling ap-
pearances was kept secret by the con-
jurers, and bad so far defied all at-
tempts at explanation. A solution,
however, purporting to be furnishedby
a well-known expert in legerdemain,
appears in a recent issue of La Nature.
It shows conclusively that the whole
business depended upon a simple, but
very nicely adaptea mechanical arrange-
ment
Daring their performances the "fire
caters" stood. upon a large, gayly car-
peted box, seemingly designed to lift
them into plainer new, but really con-
cealing two rubber bags filled with
laminating gas' and, compressed by
weights. To the heel of each man's
right shoe was affixed an ingenious con-
trivance, terminating in a, spout. This
was the point of entrance for the.gas.
It was attached to a very slender tube
of vulaniaecl rubber, which being of
the same color as the conjurer's
DIABOLICAL COSTUME,
was invisible to the spectators.
The tube was earried up the leg and
the back, and inside both sleeves next
to the skin. On reaching the wrist, it
was connected with a still smaller flex-
ible tube, flesh colored, and running
along the palm to the tips of the fore-
finger, where it ended in an opening
hidden under the nail. A similar
braneh passed up the neck and under
the chin as far as the lips.
Ey placing his heel, and beariag
down accurately over a, tube which pro-
jected slightly at a certain spot in the
carpet, the, performer eould bring hie
body tube into communication with the
corresponding reservoir within the box,
and send the gas cireulating upward
until it reached- the finger tap, where
it was instantly lightea by- an electric
SROXit train a machine concealed under
his short cloak, producing a stream of
fire. Xtist so it was led to escape be-
neath his lips, the flame then appearing
to issue from his mouth—an effect
which was aidetl by the performer's
openiag the latter very wide and
throwing' his head back, The stage
was always dimly lighted, and but
slightly inelined, making. it still more
difficult to distinguish the tubes. Thus
is another of these clever feats remov-
ed from the dornale or wonders,

SpratriS of the Bat*,
Sprains of the baek usually occur in
the region of the neck or the loins, and
may be so severe as to affect the liga-

with stiffness and tenderness. There

Occasionally indications of paralysis
are found, and if these persist or are
aggravated, hemorrhage between the
vertebrae or some .injury to the spinal
cord should be suspected. When the
kidneys are affected, blood will ap-
pear in the urine.
Sprains of the back are to be distill-
gmehedfrom fractures or dislocations.
And this it: is comparatively easy to
do, as in all eases of simple sprain the
line of the spine is preserved, the ten-
derness is spread over a considerable
area, and the person can usually,
though .sometimes not without great
pain, raise himself in.to an erect posi-
tion. The symptoms of sprain are nev-
er so severe as those of a fracture.
We may be reasonably sure of a good
recovery from a sprain of the back,
even.in the severer cases. Where par-
alysis is present, even though the par-
alysis itself may pass off in a short
time, there is still some danger of the
inflammation spreading to the region
of the spinal cord. This danger is most
frequent in cases of injury to the neck.
The main treatment of sprains to
the back is to be found in absolute rest.
This may be best secured by placing the
patient flat upon his back, except when ;
there is great local tenderness, upon
a firm though not hard mattress.
'When there is great irritation and the
movements of the body cannot be con-
trolled, a jacket of plaster or some
similar material may be put on to con-
fine the spine and limit its motions.

In cases of simple sprain of the back
the constitutional effects are slight.
When such symptoms manifest them-
selves decidedly, the case demands skil-
ful treatment.
Water as a NIedieine.
The human body is constantly under-
going tissue change, Worn out particles
are east aside and eliminated from the
aystena while the new- are ever being
formed, from the inception of life to its
olose. Water has the power of increas-
.
ing these tissue changes, which mul-
tiply the waste prod:ucts; but at the
same time they are reneis ed. by its
agency, giving- rise to increased appe-
tite which, in turn, provides fresh nut-
riment.
Persons but little accustomed to
drink water are liable to have the waste
products formed faster than. they are
removed. •Any obstruction to the
free working of natural law at once
produces disease, which, if once firmly
seated, requires both tirae and money
to cure.
People accustomed to rise in the
morning weak and languid will find
the cause in the imperfect, secretion of
wastes, which many times may be rem-
edied by drinking a tumblerful of water
before retiring. This yeay materially
assists in the process during the night,
and leaves the tissue fresh and strong,
ready for the active work of the day.
It would be difficult to find the hu-
man ill for which hot water is not it
panacea. For sprains, aches, headaches,
it is unrivalled. When a woman comes
home tired and weary, the Health
Journal recommends taking off the
bodice and brushing the hair up to the
top of the head, then squeezing sponge-
ful atter spongeful of water, as hot as
Can be borne, on the back of the neck
and base of the brain. After five min-
utes of this, the face should be bathed
with hot water, and a rest of five
minutes taken on the bed or in an arm
chair. If possible, a glass of warm
milk or sorae gentle stimulant - like
beef tea or sherry and egg, should be-
taken.

MR. FRANK BAUER, BERLIN, Owr.
Perhaps you know him? In Water-
loo he is known as one of the most
popular and succeskful business men of
that enterprising town. As manag-
ing executor of the Kuntz estate, he is
at the head of a vast business, repre-
seating an investment of many thous-
ands of dollars, and known to many
people throughout the Province.
Solid financially, Mr. Frank Bauer
also has the good fortune of enjoying
solid good health, and if appearances
indicate anything, it it4 safe to predict
that there's a full half century of
active life still ahead for him. But
it's only a w months since, while
nursed as an invalid at the Mt.
Clemens sanitary resort, when his
friends in Waterloo were dismayed
with a report that he was at the point
of death.
" There's no telling where would
have been had 1 kept on the old treat-
ment," said Mr. Bauer, with a merry
Laugh, the other day, while recounting
his experiences as a very sick man.
"Mb. Clemens," he continued, " was
the last resort in my case. For
months previous I had been suffering
indescribable tortures. I began with
a loss of appetite and sleepless nights.
]hen, as the trouble kept growing, I
was getting weaker,,a,nd began losing
flesh and strength rapidly. My
stomach refused to retain food of suy
kind. During all this time I was
under medical treatment, and took
everything prescribed, but without
relief, if ust about when in v cond I tion
seemed most. hopeless, I heard of a
wonderful cure effected isa a case
somewhat similar to mine, by the
Great South AmericanNervine Tonic,
and I finally tried that. On the first
day of its use I began to feel that it
was doing what no other medicine
had done. The first dose relieved the
distress completely. Before night I
actually felt hungry an.d ate with an
appetite such as I had not known for
months, 1 began to pick up in
strength with surprising rapidity,
slept well nights, and before I knew
it I was eating three square meals
regularly every day, with as much
relish as ever. I have no hesitation
whatever in saying that the South
American Nervine Tonic cured me
when all other remedies failed.

Mr. Frank Bauer's experience ie
that of all others who have used the
South American Nervine Tonic. Its
.instantaneous action in relieving dis-
tress and pain is due to the direct
effect of this great remedy upon the
nerve centres, whose fagged 'vitality
is energized instantly by the very first
dose. It is a great, a wondrous cure
for all nervous diseases, as well as
indigestion and dyspepsia. It goes
to the real source of trouble direct,
