Mother dried her tears and sat upand toid me her story.

Father, it appeared, had traveled by the private railway to Erinofka, a big moor, the shooting of which he rented with two other sportsmen, a Russian grand duke and an English gentleman ealled Hulbert. Father liked the place

Of all the bereavements which are possi- ble to a home, the loss of a child is perhaps the most

disappointing, and the hardest to bear. During the heated spell in the summer in New York City as many as a thou- sand babies have 1 died in a week. Of course, in @ crowded city, with its unsani- tary districts, many of chese deaths would have occurred any way. The fact remains that this tremendous mortality was to a great extent due to the lack of inherent resisting power in the victims. These babies when born had in their bodies the seeds of disease. The deadiy heated term only shortened the period of their sufferings If a woman wishes her babies to be healthy and strong and able to resist the usual ailments of childhood, she must take proper care of herself in a womanly way during the period of gestation. A woman who suffers from weakness and disease of the organs distinctly feminine is unfitted for wifehood and motherhood. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is a wonderful med- icine for ailing women. It acts directly on the delicate and important organs con- cerned, It makes them well and strong. It allays inflammatien, heals ulceration, soothes pain, stops exhausting drains and gives rest and tone to the tortured nerves. Thousands of women have testified to its almost miraculous merits. Many of them have permitted their names, addresses, experiences and photographs to be repro- duced in Dr. Pierce’s Common Sense Med- ical Adviser. This great book used to sell for $1.50, now it is absolutely free. It tells all about the home-treatment of ordinary diseases. It contains 1008 pages, and over illustrations. Several chapters are de- voted to the diseases of women. For a pa-

night train that day, but he had not } T

turned up at home. Mother had waited till Thursday night, thinking that pos- sibly father might have found the birds so plentiful that he had decided to re- main another day. But when Friday morning had come and still father had not arrived mother grew anxious and telegraphed to the head keeper at Erin- ofka, inquiring whether father was still there.

An answer came presently to the ef- fect that father had left on Thursday evening with the rest of the party.

Then mother sent a man down to the lodge, 40 miles away, to make inquiries, but nothing had transpired excepting that father had undoubtedly been to the lodge and had as certainly left it again to return to town.

**That’sall,’’ said mother. ‘I waited antil the Tuesday, as you know, to send for you, my beloved, and now you have come. At least we can bear our sorrow together. Alas, what else is left to us but to bear it ?”’

“Oh, mother, much,’ I said encour- agingly. ‘‘The time has not nearly ar- rived to give way to despair. Believe me, I shall not rest until I have either found my father or learned the secret of his disappearance. Cheer up. my sweet. It is not like you togive way. You are so brave and sensible. All the world knows that!’’

“T can bear ascertained calamity, said poor mother. ‘‘When one knows the full extent of the trouble, it can be borne more easily. It isthe uncertainty of this that has unnerved me. But yon are right. We ought still to hope, my Boris. I will be brave. I will hope as you do. We will not despair until we Lave done all that there is to be done. What shall be our first move? Come,

ell me. You have done me good al- ready. Thank God that I have stilla

brave son. What is to be done?’’

‘‘Percy is coming to help me tomor- row or next day,’* I said. ‘I thought it would be as well to have him here. You know him and like him.”’

‘“‘Kind Percy!’’ murmured mother. ‘‘He is a friend indeed.’’

‘‘And meanwhile I shall go to Erin- ofka by the very first train I can catch tomorrow morning in order to make in- quiries on the spot. Whom did you send from here?’

“The second coachman, Pavel, an honest fellow. He knows the keeper, Armin, and interviewed bim at Erin- ofka. Armin could give him no satis- faction.’’

“I shall see Armin for myself and many other people besides,’ I said. ‘‘] shall make preliminary inquiries to- morrow and then come back for Percy and continue them together with him.”

‘“‘But have you any sort of notion as to what can have occurred? That is what is so dreadful to me that I cannot imagine what nature of calamity could possibly have happened tohim. I feel so helpless about it.’’

‘‘T cannot, really, until I have made inquiries, dear mother. It is possible that poor father may only have fallen from the train en route and rolled down an embankment. You have not seen the line to Erinofka. It isa mere toy rail- way, witha gauge but three feet wide and tiny carriages like small busses with balconies. The train runs most unsteadily, and father might have falien asleep and been jerked from the bal- copy without any one seeing. He might have lain stunned until some one found and took him into shelter. The finder, unaware of his name, would be unable to communicate with his friends, and

poor father still too il] perhaps to give him any information. That is at least a theory and would account for the ab- ‘ sence of news. Then there is another thing that might possibly have hap- pened, though I admit it does not seem very likely’’—

“Go on, Boris, tell me everything you have thought of,’’ said poor moth- er, who wept quietly through my some- what grewsome recital. ‘‘How dreadful to think that my poor dear Vladimir may be lying even now unconscious, and we unable to help him because ig- norant where to look for him—God grant it is not that!’’

‘“‘He will have found kind friends, never fear,’’ I said, ‘“‘but my other theory is Jess painful to contemplate. I told you the worst first. It is this: Fa- ther is well known and known to be rich too. It may be that some wretched fellows, desperate perhaps for want of money, may have formed a band, like Greek brigands, to abduct him. If 80, they will send a deputation one day, presently, or a message, claiming @ sum of money for his ransom.’’

Accidents were of frequent occtr- rence, though the train went so slowly that personal injury was rare. Passen- gers Were allowed to use the line, which was thus most useful for my father and his fellow sportsmen. He might easily have fallen out then. But in that case would not Hulbert—who was shooting with him that day, as I had ascertained —have known of it either at once or when the train arrived at St. Peters: burg? At any rate, he would have miss- | ed my father and have given the alarm. As a matter of fact, and as I discovered presently, Hulbert had remained behind for another day’s sport when my father returned, Hulbert returning on the Thursday and father on the Wednesday, eo that the accident—if it happened— would have occurred without Hulbert knowing anything abont it.

‘“‘Did you see my father off on the Wednesday, Armin?’’ I asked him. Ar- min reflected. No, he said presently, he had not. He had been out on the moors till late with Mr. Hulbert. If our men had been told that the count returned with Mr. Hulbert, it was a mistake.

Dr CHASE

DSCOvERED BE RVOUS TREATMENT DISEASES

In his study of diseases of the nerves, Dr. A. W. Chase found that in pearly every case the cause of trouble was improper nourish- ment. About one-fifth of all the blood in the human body is found in the brain, and unless this blood is rich and pure the nerves cannot obtain proper nourishment, and become worn out and exhausted,

Nervous depression, nervous headache, nervous dyspepsia, loss of sleep and vital force, lack of energy, are symptoms of weak, watery blocd and exhausted nerves.

It was asa food for blood and nerves that Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Food was prepared, Its remarkable success in curing all diseases arising from thin blood and impoverished nerves is proof that Dr. Chase's theory of fecd- tng the mrves and blood is the proper one; stimulants only urge on the tired and worn out nervous system until there comes a complete collapse,

Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nerve Food creates new Srain and nerve ceiis, and makes the blood pure and rich. It restores to the exhausted nerves the vigor of perfect health. soc. a Jarge box, at alldealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Toronto.
