The wild wind of Novmber, whirling about the big Kearney manision, found one morning a new platform ;from the muffled bell floated the black pennant of death, the pirate flag that means ‘no quarter.’
Within the great drawing-room sat Carroll Kearney alone with his dead mother, counting over the loving words and helpful deeds through childish days and later years, treasur- ing the last sott word ; the fluttering hand-clusp and gentle sigh that closed the scene. He had beeo with his mother in the city through her illoess and the house had been shut. After tie funeral he would return, and the

‘Did he come, John? And how does he look ?’
Aunt Ellis’s voice was very weak and piping, for Christmas eve found her slowly but surely going down the valley, and she was left no night alone, lest she should drift out softly, unper- ceived.
To-night Annie would watch her, and give her medicines in time.
John had just come from the station, where he went to meet Kearney, who was resolved to go to his own home. Heo had kindled a fire in the library for him, and eft him there.

The Greatest Medical Discovery sines the Creation of Man, or since the
of Commencement of the
Christian Era.
There never has been a time when the heal- Ing of so many different diseases has deen 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 Porous 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 acure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the ‘nstant oue is applied the patient will feel its effect.
Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; 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, convinced of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MrLvin’s CApsicuM 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

‘I'd feel better, thongh,’ said John,’ ‘if he didn't think Carroll Kearney was going to hold him fast. That’s the way the devil gets round those plucky fellows—tells ‘em they don’t need any help from the heaven: above or the earth beneath, and then he ducks ‘em right down into the pool. Well, he’s safe at home to-night; but he wouldin’t stay there only to get his, supper.
