THEY MET BY CHANCE, TC

A Story of True Love. BY SIDNEY THORNE. (Coneluded.)

Burning with indignation, she sought Emmet at his boarding-house and asked {or an interview. Hecame into the room, looking so free from anything evil in his bright young manhood, and withal so handsome and debonnair, with that indes- eribable air of high breeding which char- acterises his class, that the poor womaD who had risen to meet him and over- whelm him with reproaches, sank down into a chair and wept bitterly.

?mmet went to her kindly.

“Did you send for me, my good woman? Can I be of service to you?” involuntarily his purse was ip his hand and opened. He eviden:ly thought she needed help. ei

With 2 gesture of dignity the sorrow-4 ing mother rose and put aside the proffer- ed sum.

“It is not money. It is my child ! Oh, sir, how could you step down out of your happy, noble sphere and blight an already vfllicted girl. Until she saw you, she had a heart as light as air, and the } glance ot her eye had a music of its own tu me. Now—” She could say no more.

Emmet stood for a mowent haughtily erect, a clear conscience flashing its record out of his fiery eyes. But his indigna- tion died sway as he heard the mother’s anguished sobs, and he said gently :

“If you will tell me in what way I have done harm to peor little Fiora, I will do my besttoatone. Dry your tears, my good woman, and tell me an intellig. ible story. At present I am at a loss to understand you,

Truth spoke in the gentle but firm tones of his voice, and the bewildered mother did her best to obey him. she dried her eyes and told him of malicious seandals which had been set afloat, and that unsuspicious Flora had noticed the strange deportment of people who had ever been studiously kind to her—adding.

“My poor girl’s infirmity, sir, has al- ways made strangers take notice of her, seeing, too, that she was so pretty like. So you must not think she has been brought up ina light way because she makes friends with a stranger.”’

“Fleaven forbid that I should think anything of Flor: but that she is as pretty as a flower and as pure as a dew drop,’ was the young man’s fervent answer.

After a few moments. of deep thought he continued, “I had no idea that Mrs. Grundy would make « scandal out of my pleasant walks with as interesting a child as I considered her. But Mrs. Grundy shall be appeased! Madam,” turning to Mrs. Martin and speaking seriously and solemnly, “I am a mere boy, full young to marry, but I cao offer your child a loving heart which holds her as its choicest treasure. I have no near relatives to make exceptions to my choice, and I am rich. With your consent, Flora shall be my wife before another day’s sun shall mature another day’s gossip about her. Will you give her to me 2”?

Fond as she was of her child the mother hesitated. It seemed incredible that this beautiful, rich young man should mean to unite his whole future life with such an unsuitable wife. The young man read her thoughts. A smile lit up his dark face.

“Po not fear.

make her happy!

So it was that Emmet Weyland fonod the lovely bride about whom artists raved and sculptors begged for a cast of her beautiful face when he took her to Italy a few years after, and | will tell you a

jeasant bit of news. She is no longer deaf, and of course with her hearing she has recovered the use of her speech. At first the syllables came slowly, hoarse and hesitating ; but now as the silvery voice ives utterance to the silver thoughts of the refined and elegant woman who has been received in the cultivated circles as

none would suspect that the seal of silence had rested for Jong years upon those eloquent lips.

Wealth was the ‘“‘genii’” which gave them their ‘open sesame’’—calling to her relief those eminent aurisits whose long and loving labor in the cause of their favorite science, made them skilled to determine whether the case was within

(CAPSICUM)

The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.

There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has deen caused by outward application as the present., It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.

Physiciansin all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as @ medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convinced of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM Porous PLAsTers, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribo them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such eases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate person to wear, as it is free, from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will seli hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSI- cum Porows PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, to any address in the United States or Canadas.
