that,’ said Lizzie Doyle, going to the

i

mirror and réadjusting a twenty-dollar hat.

‘So would I. But, then, what could she do. ?’

‘At least she might have made her- self a little less public. If there's any- thing I despise, its these saleswomen.”’

‘So do I. How much better it would have been to have gone into dress-mak- ing or milinery, or something of that sort. But to stand behind the ccunter like a man!’

‘Papa always did like those Stanleys,’ said Lizzie Doyle, petulantly.

‘Yes, we all liked them well enough until Mr. Stanley failed, didn’t we?

‘No, not J, for one, Laura was al- ways so independent in her notions. Don’t you remember how she studied at school? It does seem as if she fore- saw her father’s failure.’

‘I wonder she didn’t try some better position then. Sheiscertainly capable of being something better than a shop- girl.’

‘Oh, I believe papa intends to pro- mote her when Mr. Jobely goes west. She will then take Jobely’s place as a junior book-keeper. Think of that for a& woman.’

‘That would be better than selling goods. I don’t see how she can do that with her refined tastes. Why don’t she give lessons, 1 wonder? It might not bring herin quite so much money, but it be a deal nicer.’

‘Yes; and then we could recognise her,’ said Lizzie Doyle.

That’s what 1 was coming to,’ was the reply of her companion, a small, sallow-faced girl, elaborately trimmed and flounced.

‘How amlIto treat hernow? We have been great friends, you know; that is, when she was in our set,’ she added, seeing Lizzie’s brow darken.

‘I'll tell you how I shall treat her,’ responded Lizzie, slowly drawing on a par of perfumed, three-buttoned kid gloves; ‘precisely as I treat all of papa’s clerk’s.. And I should like to see any of them presume!’

‘Oh, but Laura won’t presume! You needn’t be afraid of that; she’s too proud,’

‘Bat how can you help it when you go tothe store or church? She sits so near us you know.’

‘Of course she'll give up the pew. She can’t afford that.’

‘That’s precisely what she does not mean todo. I heard her say the fam- ily must economize somewhere else and keep the pew. Her mother is hard of hearing and could not enjoy the ser- vice farther back, The children, too, must go to church. That is the last thing, she said, one ought to give up. I heard her say this to your father last Sunday.’ »

“How provoking!’ said Lizzie, im-

patiently. ‘She will always be in our faces. But I shall have nothing to do

with her. I know what it is for, the artful minx !—it’s to keep near us. She knows she has got into papa’s good graces; and Al, too, admires her. I I’ don’t see what there is to admire. She’s very plain.’

‘Laura is no beauty,’ was the reply, ‘but I don’t think she’s so very plain. She certainly has lowered herself though by going into a store.’ And thereupon the two girls went out for their walk.

It was near twilight of that day when Laura Stanley walked briskly home and-entered the neat two-story house to which her mother had lately re- moved such of her household articles as had been spared by the auctioneer.

‘This is really pleasant,’ she said, sinking into a chair that had been drawn near to the glowing grate. ‘I had no idea, mother, that you would g0.s0on make the house so homelike.’

‘ Are youvery tired, my dear ?’ asked her mother, a refined-looking woman, as she helped the daughter to take off her cloak and hat.

‘ Rather, but I like the business, and it’s a fine place for the study of charg acter.’

‘I wish you had chosen something else, my dear.’ :

‘I don’t wish so,’ said Laura. ‘There is nothing else that would have brought a salary at once. I used to wonder what a certain person would be to me if 1 were not the rich Mr. Stanley’s daughter, and now I know. It’s a know- ledge worth gaining.’

‘Do you meet with many persons you are acquainted with? asked her mother.

‘Oh yes; and it’s amusing when they come upon me suddenly. !—it’s really!—is this Miss Stanley ? and sometimes up go the eye-glasses. Then I feel—well, as if I should like to freeze somebody, if I could, for a minute. Others see me and make believe they

are examining goods; so absorbed are ss they that they go clear by me without: Paper published in the

The Greatest Medical Discovery sinee 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 been eaused 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 PoROoUS PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, te 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 reguire to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the {nstant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.

Physiciansin all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsieum; and it has always been more or less used as a 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, convineed of the wonderful cures effeeted by DR. MELVIN’S CaPpsiCcUM Porous PLAsTeRs, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters or liniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for

- MRLVIN’s Capsicum PorRovs 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 hundredg to your friends.

Ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s Capsi- cUM POROUS PLasTER, aud 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.
