How I Won the Laird’s Daughter.

BA DANIEL GORRIFE.

CHapTer Il. ( Continued.)

Next day I did not forget to mount my horse, which I had christened Prince Charlie, and ride over to the Haugh. It was more the desire to meet again the handsome and black-haired Jessie, than the expectations of a good dinner,—in which the Laird was said to excel,— that made me keep my appointment

with scrupulous care, although two or — ‘ oo rbareE three of my distant patients thereby | Reefers, missed an expected visit. I found a} goodly company assembled in the eed, i isters,

old-fashioned mansion, feveral neighbor- ing lairds with their wives were present, my excellent friend the minister ot the parish, and some of the “chief men” of St. Dunstan. A few young laclies graced the company; but it struck me as something singular that | was the only

young gentleman who had been honored

with an invitation. Does the Laird really think, 1 asked myself, that he will keep away the dangerous disease of love from his charming daughter’s heart by excluding chivalrous youths from his dinner-tuble? What intense selfishness there may be in the warmest paternal affection! Nor was selfishness altogether abseut from my own heart. I began to feel akind of secret satisfaction that the

coast was clear, and that undivided at- tentions could be given and received. | Jessie was all smiles, grace and beauty aad before dinner was finished, I was| more than charmed—I was bewitched with her manners and conversation. | When the ladies retired from table L en-| deavored, as on the former occasion, to| keep the Laird o’ the Haugh in good humor, being now determined, for a par ticular reason, to rise rather than fall in his estimation. When the minister ittroduced polemics I flang out a shower | of puns; when oxen became the topic | [spiced the talk with some racy stories. The ruse succeeded. Between the strong waters nod the stories, Laird Ramsay was elevated into a hilarous region, and he would have forgiven his worst enemy on the spot. He was not aware that [ wus playieg with him and upon him for a purpose. When my stock was getting exhausted I started the minister oa his everlasting trip to Rome, and managed, at the commencement of his narrative, to escape from table unper- ceived. I was not particularly anxious to ‘join the ladies;” but 1 was excess- ively anxious to have, if possible some private coiversation with Jessie Ramsay. There could be no denying the fuct that I—the young medical practitioner of St. Dunstan—had fallen ia love, kow or why it boot not to inquire, with the beauti- fal daughter of the L:id o' the Haugh. { felt it through every vein in my body, and every fibre of my heart, and I fond- ly imagined from sundry stealthy glances and sweet suggestive smiles that the dear creature had perceived and rc- ciprocated my attachment. The golden silence of love is the highest eloquence, and the most entrancing song. As good luck and favoring fortune would have it, I had no soonor left the dining-hall than the object of my adoration came tripping down stairs alone. In looking over the drawiog-room window a rich flower from her lustrous hair had fallen to the ground, and the lovely creature was now, hastening to secure the lost treasure. Here wus an opportunity little anticipated but loog remembered. It was impossible that I could be so ungallart as to allow her to search for the fallen flower by herself. and we therefore went out into the open air together. There was no moon, but the stars were shining full and brilliant in the firmament. Tall holly bushes and other shrubs surrounded the house within the outer circles of the trees. The only two sounds I distinctly heard were the

beating of my heart, aod the humming |:

sound ofthe minister's voice as he narrat- ed the incidents of his pilgrimage to the Eternal City. I blessed the good man for his unconscious kindness in granting me this opportunity, Jessie and I pro- ceeded to the place where the flower was supposed to be. I saw it at once, and she saw it at once ; but both of us pre-

(CAPSICUM) JORO Qk of! ir

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 been eaused by outward application as the present. It is an un uted fact that over half of the

entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

Dr. MELYVIN’s Carsicu mM POROUS PLASTERS are oomneatedaes 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. Ali other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect acure; but with these it is entirely «if- 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 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 cures effected by Dr. MELVIN’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 baek, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they bave failed, and you wanta certain eure, ask your druggist for i Dr. MELVrIN’s CAPsIcuUM POROUS PLASTER. | You ean hardly believe yourown convictionsof | its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate Bees 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 Porous 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.
