MEDICAL.
The physical existence
of mankind is something
like an account in a ledger.
Health on one side --dis-
ease on the other. All the
pure air, good food, ra-
tional exercise and sound
sleep go on one side of
the account. It stuns up health and
strength. On the other side, are bad air,
poor food, overwork and worry. That foots
up weakness and disease.
When your appetite or sleep is disturbed;
when the stomach and liver are not work-
ing properity, or the bowels are not in regu-
lar condition; you are losing vitality and
strength; figures are going down on the
wrong side of the ledger. Unless this is
stopped and the other side of the accoun
is built up, you'll soon be a physical
bankrupt. .
The most profitable account a sick man
can open in his Ledger of Life is with Dr.
Pierce's Golden MedicalDiscovery,a •
wonderful and scientifici
tonic which m -
parts a direct and healthy stimulus to 'tie
'entire nutritive organism. It strengthens
the digestive fluids and the liver, and en-
ables the blood -making organs to produce
pure, red, highly -vitalized blood.
i
It s not a mere temporary exhilarator.
It feeds the constitution with genuine, per-
manent power. It writes big, round sums
on the health side of the account, and
wipes out the figures of weakness and dis-
ease. It animates the vital forces and
builds up healthy flesh, muscular energy
and nerve -force. -
For -nearly 30 years Dr. Pierce has been
chief consulting physician of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo,
N. Y. His formulas are everywhere recog-
nized as the most effective remedies in the
world. His "Pleasant Pellets" are the
most perfect and scientific cure for consti-
pation ever invented. They are not violent
in their action, but perfectly sure, and at
the same time comfortable. Their great
reputation has called out a score of 'mi.
tations which druggists sometimes try
to substitute, but there is nothing "just
As good." )

AT BYRAMS.
BY LUCY C.
Continued. •
And then quite suddenly an event of great
importance occurred. Mrs. Eversley ap-
peared at Byrams, most unexpectedly. Her
last visit had been when Rita was fourteen
-not then in any degree the beautiful girl
she was now. -Mrs. Everaley had been
abroad since then,
contenting herself with
occasional letters to her daughter.
Rita WRS on her way back from school.
It was a February day, clear and cool. The
wind had brought a soft color to her cheeks
under her broad brimmed hat; the masses
of her richly tinted hair seemed to have
caught the wintry sunbeams; she was look-
ing absolutely lovely as she entered the lit-
tle parlor, and her mother actually scream-
ed with surprise.
Mrs. Eversley was a woman past fifty, yet
retaining an air of youthful good looks
which she consideied -added to perfect
taste in dress -an equivalent for actual
beauty and twenty years of age. Her pure-
ly mercenary marriage wasentirelycharac-
teristic. The same impulse which led to
her doing that governed every action -
governed her now in insisting upon a visit
from the daughter she considered a rara
avis -one bound to add to the social distinc-
tion which Mrs. Eversley flattered herself
sfie possessed.
And so, as usual, the mother carried her
point. Indeed, who could resist her author-
ity? It was Jered Hopkins who held out
the longest.
"Don't go, Rita," the young man plaid-
ed with her, one February evening, when he
walked home with her from church. "It
will break your heart, dear, to be with your
mother and her kind."
"1 must, Jered," the girl answered.
"Rita," he said, after a pause, I want
to ask you one thing. Could ye -could ye
make your mind up to gi.' me some sort o'
promise before you go, not to say you'd
sw'ar to marry me, but just somethin' -I
tould keep up hope on ?"
They stood still, looking at each other
earnestly, but with such different meanings
in the eyes. The man's face was white and
anguished.
64 Oh, Jered," she whispered-" dear,
dear Jered, don't ask me 1"
"Well, I won't, dear -I won't," he said,
huskily. "Don't let it weigh on ye." And
suddenly and wildly the girl clung to him,
and burst into a passion of tears. It was
because she knew herself in that moment
-knew she had flung away all hope of lov-
ing a good and honest man'because she
must remember -two summer clays.
At Mures, in the Catskills, as in all other
fashionable summer hotels, the arrival of the
evening train, the stage -coach, and the pas-
sengers therein, constitutes an exciting ele-
ment in the routine of the day, and the
new -comer who passes the gauntlet of that
first criticism from a hundred or more eyes,
rcakes a fine impression on entering the
large hallway and dining -room for the first
time, may well be satisfied with his ;or her
appearance. How quickly are the jaded,
travel -worn, or nervously anxioes passen-
gers over -looked 1 how eagerly are signs of
"tone" or "style" or even beauty noticed
and caught up in such a place and such an
hour ! and above all how fortunate are the
travellers who, arriving by their own con-
veyance, descend leisurely, and care not a
whit for any comment that may be made!
Such a pai ty arrived one August evening
at Murr's, and descended with the active
assistance of hotel clerks, waiters and other
functionaries, thereby creating quite a flut-
ter in the minds of the assemblage on the
long wide verandas.
throu h them to assure her Mother that all her kind and calibre to be found in the moun-
was right.
Mrs. Eversley had gone at mum to bed,
and when her daughter mine into her room
for good -night, she was detained to know
it she had seen any familiar names on the
hoterregister.
No, Rita had not. So the book was sent
for, and lying in bed, in a cloud of frills and
laces, Mrs. Eversley scanned the pages.
Long custom had inured Rita to this pro-
cess. She knew her part; it was to listen
as the well known names were milled off.
"Jay Vanvoort"-Mrs. Eversley gave a
little seream-" E. V. Leindter," Donald
Macbane," Sturgison."
"My dear Rita," said her mother, dos-
ing the book, and looking up solemnly at
her daughter, "in the first pages three or
four of the most eligible young men in New
York 1 I call it a special providence 1 Go
to bed at once, or you won't be fit to look at
to -morrow. Don't forget your scented
gloves. Tell Maria to be meat particular

I couldn't go down. I'll breakfast in bed,
but you must appear. She will call for yeti.
Don't forget you are to wear the eorn
mu -
lin if it is warm and the white wool if it is
cool. White, of course, for a firat appeae-
&nee. What a mercy it is I made such a
study dress 1"
es, mamma," said the girl, stooping
down and bestowing a light kiss on the
enamelled brow. "Good -night. You know
Maria's bed is in the dressing -room."
But Mrs. Eversley was already, wrapped
in thought, in visions of the morrow.
Rita passed through the dressing room,
the luxurious parlor, and thence to her own
room, where the maid was already unpack-
ing her trunks, banging up one after the
other of the exquisite costumes prepared
for Rittestnew triumphs.
I am to wear the ecru mull, Maria,"
Rita said, looking mechanically at the
maid.
" Yes, miss,", said the servant, with a
sigh of admiration. To her mind Miss
Breton was the most beautiful as well as
the most fortunate young lady on earth.
But it chanced that one of her mother's
heart attacks interfered with Rita's first
"distinguished" appearance. It was late in
the afternoon before Rita dared go beyond
instant recall, and she would not thenbave
ventured down -stairs had her mother not in-
sisted upon it. So Rita was dressed in the
dainty muslin -all its laces and frills pulled
out, and came to her mother's bedside for a
final inspection.
Certainly the girl was beautiful._ The
hair which in the old days had followed its
own way, now was gathered into a coil low
upon her neck, yet by the deft fingers of the
maid drawn so that it waved back, showing
the exquisite contour of her throat and the
back of the neck; and on the brow a few
locks only were allowed to wave, not marr-
ing the pure lines which so many painters
bad assured the mother were her daughter's
greatest beauty. "But you need color,"
said Mrs. Eversley from her pillows.
"There, give me those roses."
Rita obediently lifted from a bowl a
huge bunch of Jacques. "There ! Mrs.
Peters, with those in her belt the child de-
fies criticism 1"
Rita slowly made her way down to the
public rooms. She was thankful it was an
hour when few- people were about, and
thought she would enjoy looking about a
great American hotel for the first time. So
many things had lost their flavor of novelty
that she welcomed a really new interest.
The long drawing room facing the stairs and
bounded on either side by the verandas,
seemed almost deserted; but as she ap-
proached it some one at the upper end of the
room struck a few notes on the piano. Rita
moved in as far as one of the pillars which
divided in a fashion the lower and upper
parts of the room.
A girl's voice in shrill tones was saying,
"Oh, Mr. Macbane, I really can't sing it ;
you sing it; do. I know it would just
suit your voice."

A hop was going on, the band was crash-
ing away grandly, the wide hall was full of
people, and yet this party attracted pro-
found attention -two ladies and two ser-
vants only; but the elder lady, although
handsome and elegantly dressed, was evi-
dently a queruloua invalid, and the younger
was the most`beautiful girl, the most dis-
tinguished, that Murr's had ever seen. She
was tail, and carried herself' with the most
perfect, the most indifferent ,,and queenly
air ot self-possession. Her dress was of
Parisian finish -one of those incomparabk
plain cloth travelling costumes conspicuous
only in their minor details, fitting exquisite-
ly, harmonious from the small toque with
its white wing to the blue cloth boots
and long-wristed gray gloves; but dress
was a secondary matter in noticing
this girl. She was, if a trifle coldly, still
absolutely beautiful, and a rapid inventory
of her charms included magnificent chest-
nut hair, gray eyes, a perfect mouth, and
finally modelled chin, a carriage of the
head, a grace in movement, that every wo-
man or girl at Mures might well have imi-
tated; and yet even as she etood on the
veranda those first moments it was ob-
served that she seemed wholly unconscious,
or perhaps indifferent to herself, taken up
with attending to the older lady's rather
capricious wants, directing the servants,
nally, as both these appendages seemed
out of their wits, going so far as to ap-
proach the desk and register the names of
the party -Mrs. Eversley, Miss Breton,
maid and man -servant.
Rita since her Byrum life, had been
much abroad and in school, but this was
her first experience of an American summer
resort.
The finest suite of rooms in the house had
been secured, and as usual Rita went
tains during August.
Will you excuse me, Mies Palmer ?"
Macbane said, politely; and Miss Palmer
nodded, and picking up her music, walked
away.
Meanwhile Rita had moved over to one of
the many windows, where she sat down,
wondering how they were to speak.
Macbane came over to her joyously.
"Rita 1 -Mies Breton 1" he exclaimed.
The girl tented; her face orimion with a
lovely color that swept it and died away as
be spoke.
"Where have you been ?" he said, hold-
ing out his band.
She laid hers gently on it, still regarding
him with a soft, quiet, happy gaze.
He eat down, and now Rita could find her
voice.
"1 am very glad to see you," she said.
" I have often thought -wondered about
you."
"And now," said Maobane, "we will
have no end of personal history to ex-
change."
The girl smiled. He longed to say to her
that she amazed, almost bewildered him;
but he saw at once this was not the little
girl of Byrams • this was, as Mime Palmer
had said, the 13;autiful .Miss Breton who bad
been "the rage."
"Mamma and I have been abroad two
years," Rita continue, in the same quietly
modulated voice. "Mamma is a great in-
valid, and her husband, Mr. Eversley, rarely
is able to be with her. He is my step-
father, and is engaged in mining business
West. I have been to Venice," she added,
suddenly, with a smile.
Macbane thought a moment, and then
laughed lightly.
"Oh, I wish I had been with you ! Did
it rain ?"
Rita laughed -almost like her old self.
Perhaps because of the slight change, Mao -
bane recalled the gleeful note of the girl he
had -known. _
" Whereis the ring of your old laugh ?"
he asked.
"Ab 1" cried Rita, "did I laugh better
then? It has been educated away, I am
afraid. I have been taught an ideal."
" And it is-?"
• "Very many things I suppose you in
your world would approve of, It is certain-
ly ambitiouier
"Do you expect to attain it
"Emphatically" There was a fine touch
of scorn in her voice. "What a pity if all
my training should be thrown away 1 Don't
you consider me improved ?" •
He looked at her long and reflectively.
" No," he said, slowly.
The young girl said nothing for a moment.
"1 have not," she said, simply; "and I'
am glad you are frank enough to tell me the
truth."
"Yet I hear," he said, almost with an-
noyance, "you were the rage in London."
'1 went out a great deal," she said,
quietly. .
" I know it all," he exclaimed. "You
had attentions here and there and every-
where. The Prince admired you ;and you
were presented, and visited, and were visit-
ed, and-"
She liseened to him with a curious look of
pain in her eyes. gat-5-di'e0;,
"Some people like all that," she said,
"and there are men who only care for a girl
for just that reason. I used to notice it so
often. There were girls in society far better
educated, better bred, than Utter to marry
any of those men, and I used to feel asham-
ed of myself.when men neglected them for
me. I think I never could really like any
man who could do it."
The old fervent, insistent little way had .
come back. But very soon, "1 must go
back to mamma," Rita said, rising sudden-
ly ; " she will need me."
"And when shall I see :Vou again ?" He
W&8 very much in earnest.
"We are coming down to the ball to-
night," she answered.
"Von dance, of (manta ; will you promise
me the first and the third waltz ?" As he
spoke a sense of the curious part of their
renewed acquaintance struck him, and he
laughed. Miss Breton," he said, " is it
not odd? We parted in Byrams; and when
we meet, I, in the moat conventional man-
ner, ask you for a waltz."
ghe laughed, yet there was a touch of sad-
ness in her tone as she walked away.
Mrs. Eversley had determined to appear
at the ball, and the process of attiring her
in a gorgeous pipit satin was long and tire-
some to both Rita and the maid; but she
was dressed at last, and then Rita was free
to make her own toilet. She had selected
something very simple, partly from a desire
to be quickly dressed, partly because of a
desire not to look so entirely unlike the Rita
of old days.
The ball was at its height when Mrs.
Evereley and the "beautiful Miss Breton"
entered the long.room. Such scenes were
too farniliar to Rita to cause even a change
in her color. There was a buzz of admire
ation, an eager following of her movements,
a very evident desire to be first to the field;
but the girl with her superb manner seemed
to see and hear nothing of it.
"1 will show you the melody," said her
companion. The man's back was turned to-
wards Rita, who had felt on the sound of
his voice rooted to where she stood. The
girl at the piano moved, he sat down, and
then arose the song which had haunted the
girl for all those years. He sang, not turn-
ing his eyes toward the spot to which she
was riveted until he came to the last verse,
the last line,
"Thera in the star shine,
Alice. I know art thou."
and as, if by some common impulse both be
and she moved, looked up, and their eyes
met.
He had thought so many times of ber,and
where and when he would see her again.
He had carried in his mind always a picture
of the light-hearted, gentle, beautiful girl
sitting in the bower where her rude sub-
jects had crowned her; of the girl lifting
tenderly compassionate eyes to his face; of
the girl whom he had deceived. He had
thought once and again, wondering how it
would be, how soon; but it is always the
ordinary part that fate plays which sur-
prises us.
Their eyes met; the whole soul of the
girl, in spite of herself, had rushed with
joy into hers. For that one instant of per-
fect happiness in again behohling him
doubts, misgivings' all that had assailed her
first belief in him, vanished. She knew that
the name he had given her at Byrams was
not his own, but she had told herself a
thousand times that when they met this
could be explained. When they met! How
often in her loneliest, saddest hours had not
the girl said this within her heart, dreading
yet longing for the moment ! and, as we all
do, even when we are playing the last act in
our tragedies, he encountered that moment
with a feeling that time had in reality
been as nothing. Again she felt herself the
Rita whom he had smiled upon so long
ago.
But Macbane was fairly startled with
what he saw. Could it be that queenly,
beautiful girl atanding there was the child
he had known? It was perhaps fortunate
for them both that the young lady for whom
he had been singing spoke.
"That is the beautiful Miss Breton," she
whispered, moving her lips so as to articul-
ate very distinctly. "She was all the rage
in London last year; don't you remember
hearing of her ?'
" Yes," said Macbane. " We are old
friends."
'"Oh !" The girl at the piano moved back
with a little start, half admiration, half
pique. She was a pretty, brown -eyed little
thing in a garden hat -one of the many? of

change has it is my honest conviction, been
brought about by the use of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. Mr; Minshull tnen related the
following story to the News: " My sister
is twenty year of age. She came to Can-
ada from England about ten years ago, and
resided with a Baptist minister, Rev. Mr.
Cody, at Sorel, Que. In April of 1896 she
took 111 and gradually grew worse. She
was under a local physician's care for over
five months. The doctor said that she :was
suffering fromi a complication of nervous
diseases, and that he oould do little for her.
The minister with whom she lived then
wrote me of my sister's state of health, and
I had her come to Smith's Falls, in the
hope that a change and rest would do her
good. When she arrived here she was 'in , a
very weak state, and a local physician was
called in to see her. He attended her for
some time, but with poor results, and
finally acknowledged that the case was one
which he emit.' do very little for. My sis-
ter had by this time become a pitiabte ob-
ject; the slightest noise would disturb her
and the slightest exertion would almost
make her insane. It required someone to
be with her at all times, and often after a
fit of extreme nervousness she would be-
come unconscious and remain in that state
for hours. When I went home I had to
take my boots off at the door -step so as
not to disturb her. When the doctor told
me he could nothing for her, I consulted
with my wife. who had great faith in Dr.
Williams Pink Pills, as she knew wonder -
of sev-
eral cases where they had worke
ful cures, and I concluded it would do no
harm to try them anyway,and mentioned the
fact to the doctor. The doctor did not op-
pose their use, but said he thought they
might do her good, as they were:certainly a
good medicine. In September of last year
_she began to use the pills and be-
fore two boxes had been used she began
to show signs of improvement. She has
continued their use since and is to -day a
living testimony of the curative - power of
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." Mr. Minshull
has no hesitation in sounding the praises of
a remedy that has worked such a change in
the health of his sister and cheerfully gave
the "News" the above particulars, and
when asked to do so most willingly signed
the following declaration:
SMITH'S FALLS, September Ilth, 1897.
I hereby make declaration that the state-
ments in above as to the condition of my
Sister, and the benefit she received fro the
use Of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are bso-
lutely correct.

Yet during that moment she was striving
to think what were the changes in Mao -
bane since she had seen hiin last. He was
older -finer some way in his expression. If
some of the old boyishness was gone, the
quiet reflection of his dark eyes whichhad
come instead was better. The outline of
his face was perhaps thinner, but the same
curve to the mouth and chin, the same sud-
den gleam in his eyes as he spoke, the rich
quiet tones of his voice, the indescribable
fascination of his manner -these, these all
remained, and with a joyousness the girl
claimed them as her own, her faithful
memories of him and that briefly happy
time. It was hard to keep her eyes from
moving about the room in search of him,and
at last and quite suddenly they met his
gaze. He was in the doorway, almost fac-
ing them, leaning against the side, and
quietly watching her. If he had seemed re-
luctant to join her, it was because he was
thoroughly enjoying this quiet although dis-
tant survey of her face and figure. Half a
dozen men were asking her to dance. Mrs.
Eversley had begun to feel impatient over
her daughter's silence, when Macbane
sauntered over, and first offered his hand to
the old lady, whom he had known years ago
in Paris.
"My daughter, Miss Breton," said the
mother, proudly. "Rita, Mr. Donald Mac -
bane."
The girl started. It was the first time
she had heard his name.
" May I havethis waltz, Miss Breton ?"
he said, with the air of their having just
met. "So you never told your , mother ?"
he said, when they had taken' one turn.
Rita only shook her head. Let us sit
down a little while,". Meehan° urged, lead-
ing her out on the veranda. "These balls
are terrible bores. There 1 put yourself in
that chair. Are you cold ?" The night
was oppressively warm, but Macbane in-
,sisted upon her having a light wrap, and
went to fetch it., It seemed as though he
had only just departed when,
from the
curve of the porch, Rita caughtthe sound
of voices, and was startled by hearing Mac -
bane's name.
"Oh, Macbane has settled down," the
speaker was saying; "but, by Jove 1 he
used to be a regular boy about larks. Did
you ever hear of the time he and a lot of
the fellows went to some God -forsaken vil-
lage and gave a concert, palmed themselves -
off as famous singers-Brignoli and all that I
sort of thing, don't you know? The peo- !
ple, they say, were about as green as they:
make them, and the boy il had no end of fun.
They staid around with different natives,
and the joke of it all was there was some
pretty girl there that Macbane was regular-
ly mashed on ; he staid on, and had lots of
fun with her, and he got Bret to take her •

The pleasure of reading a letter depends
upon the ease with which one follows the
thought, and the necessity for any effort
mars the enjoyment and the sense of per.
communication. This being so the
handwriting is of pritmaimportance. Noth-
ing can be more exasperating than an indis-
tinct, illegible leant along whose high-
ways one must toR and struggle, never
quite sure of being on the .right track or of
having arrived at the proper destination.
There is absolutely no excuse for inflicting
such discomfort on one's friends, and it is
far better to take refuge in the characterless
productions of the typewriter than to put
friendship to such a strain.
The story has been told that Vanderbilt
once dismissed an officer for gross miscon-
duct and dishonesty but the only legible
part of the document being the signature,
the man ueed it fer years as a free pass on
the_railroads. Another case I have person-
ally known: A letter' containing quite full
business details was received by a man in a
small community in western Ne* York.
He managed to decipher the body of the
letter with some approach to assurance, but
a much underscored postscript defied his
interpretatien, assisted by the united wis-
dom of all his neighbors. The conundrum
was finally submitted to a young lady vis-
iting at the place and reputed to be skilled
in tongues, who immediately translated it:
"P. S. Be sure you keep this matter a
profound secret." The writer had only re-
ceived his just deserts in having his secret
put at the mercy of a whole neighborhood.

HERD n MASS oFISCRBS

Treated by Different Doctors.
CURED BY DR. CHASE.
The most intractable and distressing
skin diseases which defy' all manner of
treatment -even the best medical skill -
are readily cured by Dr. Chase's Ointment.
MRS. JOS. QUERIN, hotelkeeper's
wife, at Ethel, Ont., was troubled with
Eczema of the Head and Face for about
9 years, and was so bad at times she
could not go near the hot stove to do her
cooking. Her head was one mass of scabs,
and although she treated with doctors it
kept getting worse. On hearing of Dr.
Chase's Ointment, she got some, and' we.s
delighted to find the- first application do
her good. She used two more boxes of
the Ointment, is now, free from disease,
can do her own cooking, and would not
begrudge $200 for the good it has done
her.
