Cured By "Fruit -a -fives "
R.A.-WAUGH,Eso.
TORONTO, ONT., Oct. Ist, 1913.
"For a Iong time, I have thought of
writing you regarding what I term a
most remarkable\cure effected by your
remedy " Fruit-a-tives ". I have lived
in this city for more than 12 years and
am well known. I suffered from Rheu-
matism especially in my hands. I have
spent a lot of money without any good
results. I have taken " Fruit-a-tiv,es "
for 18 months now and am pleased to tell
you that I am cured. All the enlargement
has not left my hands and perhaps never
will, but the soreness is all gone and I
can do any kind of work. I have gained
35 pounds in 18 months"
R, A. WAUGH,
55 Dovnacouee Rowe.
"Fruit -a -Byes" will always cure even
the most stubborn cases of Rheumatism
``• because it is the greatest blood purifier
in the world and acts on the bowels, kid-
neys and skin.
Fruit-a-tives " is sold by all dealers
at 50c a box, 6 for $2 60, trial size 25c,
or will be sent on receipt of price by
Fruit-a-tives Limited, Ottawa.
My Lady
of Doubt
"You sent for me, sir," she said
tr coldly. "May I ask for what purpose?"
Even Fagin's cool insolence was un-
able to withstand unmoved her beauty
and her calmness of demeanor. Ap-
parently be had never met her before,
for, with face redder than ever, he got
to his feet, ha and half bowing, a d stam-
mer•ing slightly.
"My name is. Fagin, Mistress," he
said, striving to retain tain his accustomed
roughness, "I reckon you have heard
of me."
"I have," proudly, her eyes meeting
his, "and, therefore, wonder what your
purpose may be in ordering me here. I
wish to return to niy father who re-
quires my services."
The guerilla laughed, now angered
by her manner.
" I thought I'd tell you who I
so you wouldn't try any high and
mighty business," Isesaid coarsely,
and eying her fiercely. "That ain't the.
sort o' thing that goes with me, an'
Yer ain't the first one I've taken down
a peg or two. I•Iowever, I don't mean
gee no harm, only you'd better behave
yourself. Yer know that man over
there, don't yer?"
He indicated with a nod of the head,
and Claire glanced in that direction,
but without speaking.
"Well, can't you answer?"
"I recognize Captain Grant, if that
is what you mean."
"I was speaking English, wasn't I?
Yer ought to know him-yer engaged
ter hire, ain't yer?"
"Certainly not," indignantly.
Grant turned about, bis face twitch-
ing.
"This is not my fault, Claire," he
exclaimed swiftly. "Don't blame me
for it. 1 am also a prisoner, and help-
less."
She never looked at him, never an-
swered, hey entire attention concen-
trated on Pagin, who was grinning
with enjoyment,
"That's sure right, young lady,' he
said grimly. "The Captain is only
obeyin' orders ter save -his own neck.
There's no love lost atween us, let
me tell yer. But we're not so blame
merciless after all, an' I reckon, we've
got about all thar is in the house
worth Bartel' away. Now we're goin'
;to have some fun, an' leave two happy
'hearts behind. Ain't that it, Jones?

blame country is mire. Somewhere,
Mistress, I've heard tell that you an''
this Captain was pretty thick -how le
!t?"
Her eyes ;exhibited indignant sur-
prise, but, after an instant's hesita-
tion, her lips answered.
"I hardly ]snow what you mean, sir..'
We were children together:"
"An' engaged ter be married -eh?"
"There was an arrangement of that
nature between our parents. Dur why
sfould .this interest you V'
He ignored the question, but his
eyes hardened.
"I heard itthis way. You were en
gaged, until a few weeks ago,' Then
you met a damned Continental, a spy,
an' imagined yer fell in love: with him,
Now de yer' know what interest I've
got? I'm with the Red -coats, an' if 1
can turn a trick fer that side I'm
a-goin' ter do it. You'll be blessin' inc
far it some day. Nott, see here, girl.
I'm a-goin' ter marry yer off before
leavin' this house,- I reckon yer ain't
lntendin' to make` no fuss about it,
are yer?"
She did not appear to comprehend,
to realize the man was in earnest; she
even smiled slightly.
"Is this some joke, sir, that I fail
to grasp?" she asked. "Will you not
explain?"
"Explain, helli" and Fagin clapped
his hat on his head, uttering a rough
nath. "I spoke plain enough. Yer
a-goin' ter marry Grant, here an' now,
an' there's the parson, waitin' ter do
the job."
She partly turned, and as she
,recognized Jenks, the color deserted
her cheeks, and her hands grasped the
side of the door for support.
"Marry Captain Grant! I?" she ex,
claimed, horrified, "No, never!"'
"Oh, I guess yer will, my beauty.
Good Lord, why not? lie's not so
bad; there's many a girl would jump
at the chance. Your plantations join,
an' he's a King's officer."
"Listen to me, sir," she broke in,
now cool and determined. "I'11 give
you my answer. 1 have already given
it to Captain Grant. I will not marry
him -not even to save this house from
destruction; not even to release my
brother from your hands, We can
suffer, if necessary, for we are of a
fighting race, but I shall never yield
to threats."
She swept past him, around the end
of the table, and confronted Grant,
who drew back a step, scowling.
"So this is your way, is it, to win a
'woman you cannot gain by fair
means? No, there is no need of your
'answering; I understand the whole
;despicable scheme. You masquerad.
Ing as a prisoner of this creature!
You are his
Puppet. i'vo known It for
months. I learned the truth from
IEric, and from that moment I despised
'you. While I believed you an honor-
able soldier I was able to treat you
with outward respect, but no longer.
You threatened me with a forced mar-
riage once before, and failed. Now
you endeavor to succeed with the help
of this outlaw. But you never shall!
No, do not speak! do not hold out your
bands to me! You are not a prisoner.
Thesemenare here at your lustlga-
tion; you are concerned in their in-
famy. I would rather die than have
you touch me!"
She turned her back upon him, her
face white, her eyes blazing, but Fa -
gin stood between her and the en-
trance, grinning savagely.
"Let me pass, sir; this is my fa-
thers house."
"Not while I am here, Mistress," he
snarled, without moving, "The old
man isn't riclin' after me with a :mead-
ron of cavalry today. This happens
to be my turn to give orders, and yer
to obey! Do yer hear-yer'Il obey!
Those were n't pretty words yer spoke
to Grant, but they don't hurt me none.
You damned little spitfire, I'd marry
yer myself if I could, just to break yer
spirit. As it is, I'll show yer yer mas-
ter fer once. So it's the spy yer want,
is it?"
She stared at him without a word,
a depth of hatred but no fear in her
level eyes.
"Lost yer tongue, have yer? Well,
we'll find it fer yer fast enough.
What's the fellow's name?"
"To whom z do you refer?" she asked,
her passage blocked. •
"The Coutleental who's put Grant
out of the running?"
"I presume you mean .Major Law-
rence, although no one has authority
to couple my name with his."
"Oh, indeed! I'll show yer author-
ity in plenty, Mistress. Come, now,
I'm done discussing this matter. As
long as , yer father isn't able ter at-
tend ter this, affair 1 am a-goin' ter
act in his place. We'll have a loyalist
marriage, by God! an' have it now.
Come, move, you coyote -Jones, hustle
him along. • Now, Captain, there's a
good place ter stand, in between those
windows. Mistress Claire-"
I was all ready, pistol in hand, burn-
ing with a determination to shoot Fa-
gin down, yet her voice halted him.
"Wait!" she cried, standing erect
and scornful. -"I will not consent to
this. I am going to leave this room."
"Oh, I reckon not;' and he leered
into her eyes. ' "Don't rouse me, or

"Yeti will? You dare not!"

He reached forth one great hand,

she wrenched away, the cloth tearing
as site sprang back, s-
"Fagin, I ltnba' Yeti, bat I'm not

Even Jeremiah in his day said to his

such a depth of meaning', in His words,
"No elan knoweth the Son but the
Father" (Matt, xi, 27); "I live by the
Father" (John vi, 57). He spoke of the
cup given Him to drink and the bap-
tism of suffering which awaited Him
and asked if they could share it, and
they thought that their devotion to
Him was such that they could share
anything with Flim, even to dying
with Him, as Peter said (John xiii, 37),
They did not undorstuncl. How could
they when they were so dull,as not to
receive His plain Words tibout His own

THE WORD "YES."
We Are Charged With Rarely (sing' It
In This. Country.
In the United States "yes" ig pre-emi-
gently a book word, though it Is also
scattered somewhat thinly through the
conversations of everyday people and
Is employed habitually by a negligible
Dumber of individuals who are both
highly cultured and careful of .their
speech. Furthermore, as compounds or
set phrases tend to preserve old forms
and old sounds,"yes" regularly occurs
In all stock combinations. That is why
persons whose habitual affirmative is
ordinarily "yeh-a," or "eh -a," "eh -up,"
"yell -up," never say "yell -a, sir," "eh -a,
to be sure," 'yep, madam," "eh -up, in-
deed,"
ndeed," or "eh -a, thanks," for example.
"Yes, sir" -a group which in various.
states, but especially in New England,,
is occasionally employed as an emphat-
ic exclamation (and without any hu
menus intent) in addressing girls or
womenl-"yes, sir," has several strik-

GETTING ON THE STAGE.
Dangers That Beset New Eggs In the
Vaudeville Basket,
The most amazing thing to s theat-
rical manager is the utter lack of com-
prehension on the part of applicants
of what professional work really means,
When I was writing vaudeville
sketches I used to get letters from
young fellows in country towns who
wanted to go into vaudeville. For some
unaccountable reason they figured out
thatthat t t was ther si
e i est. way to break
into the entertainment business. As a
matter of fact. they were choosing the
very toughest end of 1t all. In vaude-
ville there is no stage manager to tell
one what to de and how to do it. He
must rely entirely upon himself.
Furthermore, he must do his own book-
ing, get his own transfer agent to take
ease of his baggage, negotiate his own
railroading and even pack his own
properties. In fact, he has a thousand
and one troubles. to divert his mind
from his proper business. It never
seems to dawn upon the aspirant that
it's much better to get into a great or-
ganization, where there's somebody to
attend to every problem for him and
where he has a chance to learu the
details of stage•raft.
A. clever vaudeville man, to begin
with, must have a good act, and if be
be unlenowrl he must know how to tale
his act to the managers. If le em-
ploys an agent be is at a disadvantage,
because these persons work for the
management of the theaters. Further-
more, the vaudeville wan must remem-
ber that lie comes out on to the stage
with nothing behind him, practically
no properties, no chorus girls to divert
attention. The eyes
of tie People are
centered on him. ile must do it ail. 1t
is by far the most difficult business in
the world to succeed at, unless one is
very talented. -George MI. Cohan, in
an New York fico.

SCARED THE LION,
Bravery and Daring Displayed by an,
African Woman.
In "Hunting the Elephant In Africa"
the author, Captain C. 1S. Stigand, ]n
telling some lion stories, admits that
there is a certain thrill in connection
with the king of the, jungle. The So-
malis say that a lion makes you jump
three times -first, when you hear bitn
roar; secondly, when yon unexpectedly
meet his spoor, and thirdly, when you
first sight him. They say that even a
bold man is thus frightened three
times by a lion, but after the sudden
shock of seeing him is over he is no
longer afraid. And In this connection
he tells ns a good story of female hero-
ism:
"At a village near Fort Mangoehe,
also in Nyasaland, a man was sitting
one night at the door of his hut drum-
ming while his wife was cooking food
Inside. The hut was au isolated one,
being several hundred yards from the.
rest of the village.
"Suddenly the woman beard the man,
call out, 'A. lion has got me.' She took
a burning fagot from the fire, ran out
and smacked the lion in the face. The•

r agged her husband into the but and
hastily put up the poles which form
the door. The man died a few min-
utes after, and the woman sat there
with the dead body.
"Presently the lion returned and
scratched gently on the door. This he'
repeated several times til) 11 got on the
woman's nerves. At last she could
stand it no longer, so she took another
fagot from the fire, unbarred the door
and fled to the village, leaving the
dead man. The lion then walked into
the hut and took hies."

THIS LF,,T'TER FROM MR. GEO, W. BURT,
of Redford, Wayne County, Michigan, shows
how well satisfied the farmers of that section ars with con-
crete roads. Nearly one hundred miles have been built
in Wayne County.
'`tMr. Edward N. Hines,
Board pf County Road Commissioners,
Wayne County, Detroit, Mich.
Dear Sir: -
Our concrete roads are far ahead of the ex-
pectations of the majority of us farmers. Where
$,e used tobe two days marketing fifty bushels.
of produce, we now ;basket twice as much in, one
rift, and can go to the city anytime we want to.
We do not have to wait till the roads are good
�'
to we ' can go. Also, our, horses and waggons
will last twice as long.
Hoping you will keep right on buildin
these roads, and that the county will stand' back
of this movement, I remain,
Yours truly,
(S d.) Geo. W. Burt
