Men's Chains

A man has opportunity of showiog only these arcicles of jewelry in his external dress. A ring, studs or stick pio, and a watch chain. The chain the conspicious item. It is impor tant, therefore, that its quality should be as good as the ian can afford, and its style be dis- tinguished for taste and char-~ acter.

I have taken special pains in selecting a large stock of men’s Chaigs, I am sure you will say that the patterns are the most tasteful ever shown in this city and the prices have sufficient range to fit every pocket book.

“Do ?” he cried. ‘Why, sink that there plague out of it, so as to give ue the chance breeze. Ain’t this hails delight ! What’s a-going to blow us clear whilst he keeps watch ”” And he nodded with a fierce, drunken gesture toward the raft.

**You'll have to handle the body to sink it,” said L. ‘*You’re well men now ; keep well, won't you? The two who are going may be the last taken.”

The three of them roared out drunkenly together, so muddling their speech with oaths that I did not understand them. l walked aft, not iiking their savage looks.

From Kidney Disease—Although a Man of Thrze-Score and Ten, Dr. Chase’s Kidrey-Liver Pills Gave Him Back Perfect Health.

DOCTORS

This is to certify that I was sick in bed the most of the time for three years with kidney disease. I took

several boxes of pills—different kinds —and a great many other kinds of patent medicines; besides that I was under treatment by four different doc- tors during the time and not able to work. I began to take Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills, and since that time have been working every day although @ man nearly 70 years of age. Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills have ecur-

ed me. JAMESB SIMPSON, Newcomb Mills, Ont.

If the Kidneys are not in a perfectly clean and healthy condition, the blood becomes impregnated with impurities and a decay of the Kidneys soon takes place. Bright's Disease, Dia- betes, Gravel, Stone in the Bladder, Inflammation of the Bladder, and a long list of Kidney diseases become seated, and sooner or later in so many instances end fatally. Dr. .

I had now not only to fear the cholera. but to dread the men. My mental distress was beyond all power of werds to convey. lL wonder it did not quickly drive me crazy and hurry me overboard. I lurked in the cabin to be out of sight of the fellow s, and all the while my imagination was torment- ing me with the first pangs of the cholera, and every minute I was believing I had the mortal malady. Sometimes I would creep up the companion steps and cautiously peep around, and always I beheld the same dead, faint blue surface of sea stretching like an ocean in a dream into the faint indefinable distances. But Skecking as that calin was to me I very well knew there was nothing

At | :) thitt night I was sitti uf the cahi ' vit i lit and a weak brandy i water before me, when |] was |} 1 | 1 > at the « 1 sky

light above. It wasa black night, though the sky was glorious with stars; the moon did not rise till after 11. I had lighted the cabin lamp, and the sheen of it was upon the face of Archer.

“The two men are dead and gone,” said he, ‘‘and now the bo’sun and Bill are down. There’s Jim dead drunk in his hammock. I

can’t stand the cries of sick men. W hat with liquor and pain, the air below sufto cates met Let me e aff sir, and along with sober no&¥. Ch, ¢

have merey upon me! It’s my turn next, ain't it?”

I passed a glass of brandy to him through the skylight, then joined him on deck and told him that the two dead bodies must we thrown overboard and the sickness looke@ to. For some time he refused to go for- ward with me, saving that he was already poisoned and deadly sick and a dying Wan, and I had no fight to expect that one dying man should ®¥it upon another. However, lw termined to turn the dead out of the ship in any case, for in freeing the ves- sel of the remains of the victims might lie our salvation. He consented to help me at last, and we went into the forecastle and between us we got the bodies out of their bunks and dropped them, weighted, over the rail. The boatswain and the other men lay groaning and writhing and crying for water, cursing at intervals. A coil of black

smoke went up from the lamp-flame to the blackened beam under which the light was burning. The atmosphere was horrible. I bade Archer help me carry a couple of mat- tresses on to the forecastle, and we got the sick men through the hatch, and they lay there in the coolness with plenty of cold water beside them and a heaven of stars above, instead of a low-pitched ceiling of grimy beam and plank dark with proces- sions of cockroaches and dim with the smoke of the stinky slush heap.

All this occupied us until about 10.30. When I went aft I was seized with nausea, and, sinking upon the skylight, dabbled my brow in the dew betwixt the lifted lids for the refreshment of the moisture. I believ- ed that my time had come.

In about half an hour’s time the sensa- tion of sickness passed. I went below for some brigidy, swallowed half a glass, ana returned with a dram for Archer, but the man had either swooned or fallen asleep, and I let him lie. I had my senses perfectly, but felt shockingly weak in body, and I could think of nothing consolatory todiminish my exquisite distress of mind. Indeed, the capacity of realization grew unendurably poignant.

sy and by the moon rose, and I sat watching it. In half an hour she was a bright light in the east, and the shaft of silver that slept under her stretched to the bark’s side. It was just then that one of the two sick men on the forecastle sent up a yell. The dreadful note rang through the vessel and dropped back to the deck in an echo from the canvas, A moment after I saw a figure get on to the forecastle rail and spring overboard. I heard the splash of his body, and, bounding over to Archer, who lay on the deck, I pulled and hauled at him, roaring out that one of the sick men had jumped overboard, and then rushed forward and looked over into the water in the place where the man had leaped, but saw nothing, not even a ripple.

I turned amd peered close at the man who lay onthe forcastle, and discovered that the fellow who had jumped was the boat- swain. I went again to the rail to iook, and lifted a coil of rope froma pin, ready to fling the fakes to the man should he rise. The moonlight was streaming along the ocean on this side of the ship, and now, when I leaned over the rail for the second time, I saw a figure close under the bows. I stared a minute or two; the color of the body blended with the gloom, yet the moonlight was upon him, too, and then it was that, after looking awhile and ob- serving the thing to lie motionless, I per- ceived that it was the body that had been upon the raft! No doubt the extreme hor- ror raised in me by the sight of the poison- ous thing beheld in that light and under such conditions crazed me. I have a recollection of laughing wildly, and of defying the dark floating shape in insane has I remember that I shook my fist and spat.at it, and that I turned to seek for something to hurl at the body, and it may have been that in the instant of turning my senses left me, for after this I can recall no more.

The sequel t this tragic and extraor- dinary experience will be found in the fol- lowing statement made by the people of the ship Forfarshire, from Calcutta to Liver-

Bi Fr abies 29, 1857.—When in latitude .2 degrees 15 minutes north and longtitude 97 degrees and 40 minutes east we sighted a bark under all plain sail apparently aban- doned. The breeze was very scanty, and though we shifted our helm for her on judg- ing that she was in distress it took us all the morning to approach her within hailing distance. Eve®ything looked right wic. her aloft, but the wheel was deserted and there were no signs of anything living inher. We sent a boat in charge of the second officer, who returned and told us that the bark was the Justitia of London. We knew that she was irom Calcutta, for we had seen her lying in the river. The second officer stgted that there were three dead bodies abo&:d—one in a hammock in the forecastle, a second on a mattress on

the forecastle, and a third against the coamings of the main hatch; there was also a fourth man. lying at the heel ofthe port cat-head—he did not seem to be dead. On this Dr.

aud he was put aboird by the secona omcer. He returned quickly with one of the men, whom he instantly ordered to be stripped and put into a warm bath, and his clothes thrown overboard. He said that the dead showed unmistakable signs of having died from cholera. We proceeded, not deeming it prudent to have anything further to do with the ill-fated craft. The person we had rescued remainec insensible for two days, his recovery was then slow but sure, thanks to the skillful treatment of Dr. Davisot.

He informed us that his name was Thomas Barron, and he was @ passenger on board the Justitia for Cape Town. He was the travelling representative of a large

\PPALLING DEATH

From Kidney Disease Prevented 'y Dodd’s Kidney Pills, Only.

“Kidney Disease.” Do you know what it means? It means that the kid- neys are either roffen, or rotting; the blood is full of poisonous, death- dealing corruption; that the Kidneys can’t do their work ; that the victim is a walking charnel-house; that his hours are numbered ; that the victim MUST take Dodd’s Kidney Pills if he does not want to die.

Have you Kidney Disease? Is your skin hot and dry; memory fail- ing; breath short; urine, reddish, or pale colored; does it scald when passing ; is your appetite changeable ; do your ankles swell ; have you bitter taste in the mouth on getting up mornings; is there a brick-dust de- posit in your urine?

Any of these signs is proof positive of Kidney Disease. Will you be cured, or will you die? Dodd’s Kidney Pills are the only means on earth that will cure you. They never fail.
