If you want to preserve apples, don't cause a break in the skin. The germs of decay thrive rapidly there. So the germs of consump- tion find good soil for work when the lining of the throat and lungs is bruised, made raw, or injured by coldsand coughs. Scott’s Emulsion, with hypophosphites, will heal inflamed mucus mem- branes. The time to take it is before serious damage has been done. A 5o-cent bottle is enough for an or- dinary cold.

UV MLP'S INEATUATION

The goneral impression among Jim Per- ival’s friends was that he might have lone a good deal better for himesolf than he did in his matrimonial venture. An M.

e hed made

Chere could be no doubt that ander tho

ireamstances his marriage was an im rateat ons. With his elght hundred vunds a year Percival had subsisted onfortably enough as a bachelor, but as s married M. P. ho found that his tn- ome went simply no way at all. ‘Lo cut imeelf off from society and to live with ais wife in economical seclusion Was, of course, out of the question It would rave made him unpopular with his con tituents, as well as with certain influ otial friends in town, to whose good Nees he lookel for securing some post n the Government when his party came wack to power, And as he had no profes iep, but bad launched himself for good riil upon a parliamentary career, it sould have been madness in him to pre udice his chances of political preferment.

Tha natural consequence followed 2ercival got into debt. He consoled him- seif first of ad for oatrunning the con-

table br the consideration that his party uust soon return to power, and then he hould be able to recoup his present ex endl ure But the Radicals remained in’’ session after session; the looked-for ,eneral election came no nearer, and ereival began to feel very lngubrious in iecd Ile already owed nearly one thous- ind pounds—a crushing liability to a ian With a small income and no capital, nileed, he did not attempt to disguise ‘rom himself that unless something very inexpected turned up he must soon be iopaiessly insolvent, His wife had long oaen urg.ng immediata and rigid re srepchment, but each time she mentioned .t¢ Percival shook his head

‘ne house was in committee ona bill which was being fought tooth and nali hy the Opoosition,and urgent whips had veen issued to the members of both par- cies to be as frequently as possible in their places. Kut there were many dreary intervals of debate, when nv big division was imminent, and during those inter- vals Percival did not always remain in the precincts of the house.

He might uo doubt bave spent them at home or in escorting his wife to one or other of the numerous social functions which, for his sake, she so religiously at- tended, But in his worried state of mind the dulness of a domestic evening, or yet deadlier boredom of a political conversa- zione, was uninviting. He preferred to forget his troubles in more enlivening scenes. Within a mile of the Palace oi Westminister there is, as all the world knows, a famous theater of varieties. It in under unexceptionable management; it pats forward the strongest and most en- terprising programme of the kind in Lon- don. One evening during a particularly drowsy debate a fellow M. P. had sug- gested to Percival that they should run across to the X.and see the Rainbow dan- seuse. Percival had complied. After that night he went to see her pretty regularly.

Just before the dance the stage was darkened; behind loomed a background of murky clouds, gloomy as the sky be- fore an impending thunderstorm; then a brilllant blaze of sunlight burst upon the shadowed scene. and whirling wildly in its dazzling rays appeared the famous Rainbow danseuse. What a sight that was! How dexterosly she managed her mass of gorgeous draperies, which floated all about her, and swirled and spun like a revolving wheel. At times nothing but the flashing hues of thase robes was yvis'- ble; at other times a lovely face, crowned with golden yellow locks, stood out among them, radiant, spiritual, superb— and then, while this entrancing appari- tion smiled and the audience clapped and shouted, rumblings of thunder rolled upon the air; clouds overcast the sun- light; and, amid their gathering gloom, the Rainbow goddess faded slowly from the scene,

If it had ended with his merely admir- ing this ravishing beauty from a dis- tance, all might have been well. But such infatuation as Percival’s was not satisfied to confine itself within those modest lim- its. A strong desire came over him to make her personal acquaintance. He ought, of course, to have withstood it, It should have been perfectly obvious to him that, in giving way to his desire, he was voluntarily thrusting himself into the path of danger.

But he gave way, nevertheless. He went farther. He actually addressed one or two letters to the young lady. ‘To his great chagrin she sent him noreply. At last, in desperation, he procured an intro- duction to the manager of the X., and besought that gentleman's aid in his foolish and culpable project.

*‘Just so,’ said the manager, rather coldly. ‘‘Well, Mr. Pereival, I will com- municate your wish to the young lady, and will then let you know her reply. I cannot hold out hopes that it will be fa- vorable, for a number of other gentlemen have desired introduction;to her, and have all been refused. You see, she is a sim- ple, modest girl, who is merely using her talent to support her family, and has no desire foracircle oft’male admirers. However, az I said, I will tell her that you wish to be introduced.’’

The following night when he ought to have been in his place in the house, list- ening to the Ministerial leader's state- ment, be was hovering near the stage door of the X. He had made up his mind to follow his goddess home, and 60 find out her private address.

Percival had a cab waiting for his at the corner. He noticed another cab drawn up opposite the stage door. He strolled up and accosted the driver.

*““You’re alucky manto have sucha charming fare,’’ said Percival carelessly.

**Qo said I ‘ada charmin’ fare’’ re- torted the man, suspiciously. Then he added: ‘‘If that’s your sort, young feller, you may save yourself the trouble of do- in’ the civil tome. For she’s a_ thor- oughly good young ‘ooman, I can tell yer, and won't stand no followers foolin’ around—not she!’’

Percival atected to laugh and strolled away. In afew minutes he saw the girl hurry out and get into her cab. Then he jumped into his own-—having instructed the driver to follow the other vehicle and keep it carefully in sight.

HAD INDIGESTION !

For a Matter of Some Forty Years or More.

Joseph Gardner, stove dealer, of Baths Ontario, is a great believer in Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills for indiges- tion, constipation, dyspepsia, Bright's disease, rheumatism, and kidney, liver and stomach troubles generally.

“I was troubled for over forty years with indigestion and constipation,” he writes. “At intervals [ suffered from severe headache. I spent dollars and dollars without result until Mr. Tal our druggist, advised me to try Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills. 1 did so, and must say that they ure the only remedy that gave me rellef. I would not be with- out them for anything.”

Many people suffer from rheumatism. Bad blood and diseased kidneys bring it on. Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills will remedy all this and cure rheuma- tism, sciatica and all kindred complaints. Here is a sample case:

“My boy was all crippled wp and suffered awfully with rheumatism,” writes Mrs. H. Wills, of Chesley, Ont. ‘He also had a touch of diabetes. The doctors could do him no good, but Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills completely cured him.”

When they had driven about a4 tnile his cab stopped. The M. P.” got out. He saw the young lady alighting from her cab about a bundred yards ahead. She turned and walked rapidly away. With a beating heart and trembling steps, he followed her, keeping an interval of seventy or eighty yards between them.

She had not alighted at her own door, but at the end of a street of private houses, down which she was now walk- ing. Percival realized with a certain thrill of uneasiness that it was P—— street, the street in which his own house was situated. But something worse was in store. The young lady stopped, ap- peared to be carefully scrutinizing thc numbers, then, after some evident hesita- tion, she walked straight up to the door of Percival’s house and rang the bell, A minute later she was admitted.

All at once the truth flashed. upon the unhappy M. P. There could, of course be no doubt upon the subject. This young lady, annoyed and frightened by his per- sistent attentions, and seeing that silent disdain had no effect in stopping them, had taken the ready and effective method of reporting him to his wife!

Percival leaned against some iron railings, near which he stood and wiped his clammy forehead with his» handkere chief. His dismay was altogether beyond words. If he had been on bad terms with his wife—if love on either side had ceased between them—if she had not been per- fectly fond and trusting toward him he could have stood the thing better. But as it was he felt like a man who had sud- denly received a knock-down blow. Hie knees were trembling violently; a sense of sickness, of faintness, stole over him ; in the face of this fearful exposure his in- fatuation for the danseuse seemed to die; for the first time he seemed to realize what an abject idiot he had been.

It was a long time before he could make up his mind how toact. He pa- trolled the street for more than half an hour before he had decidedl—and a bad half hour he found it. Then he tooka sudden resolution. He would goin and make a clean breast of the whole affair to his wife. That, after all, was the most honest, and, probably, the most prudent course. She might, or she might not be- Heve him; but he would tell her all the truth, express his sincere penitence, and throw himself upon her mercy.

He nerved himself to the effort. H« wentin. He entered the drawing-room. His wife was now alone, She looked up at him with a cold, altered expression, that made him wince. But he persevered. He spoke. Hetold herall. She averted ber face, and heard his confession to the end in ominous silence.

‘‘And so, Jim, my make-up, my golden wig, and my wedding draperics —-to say nothing of the shifting lights and the shadows thrown upon one, baffled even your penetration, eh, sir?’’

Jim was staring at his pretty wife, who had now risen and stood before him, smiling archly, in evident enjoyment of his obvious relief and astonishment.

“And you fellin love with my make- up. For that is what it comes to, doesn’! it, Jim?’

‘‘By Jove!’ he exclaimed with empha- sis, ‘that expaing it. It was your eyes that did it, little girl. ‘They drew me toa the theater night after night to worshir you. I could not resist their spell. I could not explain it to myself. Yet I felt there was something half familiar in theiz magnatic influence upon ime, To think I never guessed. By Jove! I wasa duffer. [ought to have known that no such other eyes were to be foundin all Eng: land !’’

“Or in all America, either?’’ ques- tioned the Rainbow danseuse, playfully. Jim’s explanation was, unconsciously, the most diplomatic that he cculd have devised. Those incomparable eyes beamed upon him with tende-ness and loving hu- mor.

**But, say,’’ asked Jim, an idea strik- ing him, ‘‘these social functions which you have been attending so assiduously for the past few months—have they beer simple blinds te dupe your unéus picious husband—ehb, Jennie?’”’

‘*‘Not at, all, sir. I went to them all. Butas my ‘turn’ at the theater lasted only ten minutes or so, I was able to go there as well. Besides,’’ she added, with the slightest tinge of playful reproach in her tone, ‘‘you have aot been at home enough lately to miss me very much, have you, Jim?’’

‘By Jove!’’ he cried, ‘‘I’ll turn over a new leaf in that respect to-night.’’

He went up, placed his arm round his wife, and kissed her fondly. She leaned her head upon his shoulder and held up a pink slip of paper to his eyes.

‘*There! Dear old Jim !’’ she exelaimed. ‘“‘Mr. Y—-— has paid me—what do you think? Fifty pounds a week. That isa check for ten weeks’ salary. At this rate your Rainbow goddess will soon dance you clear out of debt—won’t she, Jim?’’

And she soon did.— London Truth,

How They Made Up.

He was a very nice-looking young man, but be appeared nervous, and al! the clerks in the office looked at him curi- ously when he rushed in and asked per- mission tu use the telephone. ‘‘I want to talk to my wife,’’ he explained, ‘‘and there isa telephone in the drug store next door to us, where she can talk tc me.’’ He was told to help himself. He went into the little glass apartment and closed the door, but he was not used toa telephone, being under the impression that it was necessary to shout into it at the top of his lungs, and so the clerks heard the entire conversation. ‘Hello! Is that Smith’s drug store? Well, this is Mr. Jones. What? Mr. Jones! J-o-n— Yes! that’s right, next door! Will you call my wife to the telephone, pleasel Yes, I'l] hold my ear here.’’ A long pause, and then ina voice softly modu. lated: ‘Is that you, dear? I want to tel! you how sorry— What? I say, I want tc tell you how— You can’t hear’ Now, ie this any better? Hello, dear! No! No! don’t bring the manto the ‘phone I'll try again. I—want—to——tell—you— how—sorry—I—am—for—belng—cross— to—you—this—morning. Yes! Do you forgive me? What’ Oh! You say ‘long ago!’ Oh! you dear girl! What's that fanny noise? What? Spell it! K-i-s. Oh! yes I understand. Here’s one for you, aweetheart.’’ Here the young man made a noise like the pop of « champagne cork. Then he called off and walked away from the ’phone blushing happily.-—Philadel- phia Record.

WHY CONTEMPLATE SUICIDF.

I: is like tempting Providence for con- sumptives to ignore the remarkable rem- edy known as Miller’s Emulsion of Nor- wegian Cod Liver Oil. For any person to die of consumption without trying this remarkable flesh and blood maker. atter knowing of its existence, is suicide pure and simple. All that the consumptive patient needsis new blood with which to battie against the destructive forces of the disease. Miller’s Emulsion provides new blood in abundance. It is a combination of Norw+gian oi! and hypophosphites of lime and soda—a triumph of science, Miller’s Emulsion is the great nerve strengthener and blood maker, and cures Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, Scrofula and all Lung affections.

FORCE OF HABITS,

London People have Become used to the Great Specific Remedy.

Lonpon, May 11.— The despatch from Detroit with reference to the cure from Bright's disease and blood poison of Mr. Langley, of this city, by the use of Dodd’s Kidney Pills has recalled the wonderful facts of the case to the citizens, among whom Mr. Lavgley is well known. It has reminded them that Mrs. Langley among others also made an equally wonderful recovery. The use of the pills, however, has become #0 universal here and there has been so many instances in which they have been used with beneficial resu'ts that a similar case would hard'y excite as much interest now as itdid then, when the medicine was less known.

Womanly Remorse,

A young man anda maid wero walk- ing by the seashore. They had passed a sea wall where the waves came thunder- ing up into breakers that pashed sand and pebbles far inland, and had entered a small wood. ‘There's sometaing alive,’’ said the girl, ‘‘I can see it. Run quick-~ catch it.’’ The young man caught npa stick and gave chaso. A brown ungainly animal was hobbling over the ground, making his way toward his home in the underbrush. ‘The girl shrieked with do- light, and, holding up her white skirts, kept carefully behind the young man, vociferating: ‘‘It’s a percupine, kill it!— kill it!’ ‘lhe porcupine ran up a tree and looked down with a small and beady ere at its assailants. ‘‘he young man pushed it with his stick. ‘‘Bah' it hasn't spiris envugh to defend itself,’’ said the girl, contem ptuously; ‘‘make an end of it.”’

With his prunged stick the young man forced it to a branch. Reluctantly the small creature held to the twigs, its claws clasped frantically like the hands of a child, ‘‘Stand back,’’ said the young man, sullenly, a3 the twigs gave way and the porcupine fell to the ground, rolling itself into a round ball and shooting out a few aimless quills. In vain—it could not defend itself. A few smart strokes, a dull, sickening thud, and its life was beaten out of it. ‘‘Come away,” said the girl, with a shudder, “the sun does not shine in here—it is cool.’’

They went on their way in silence. The sunshine did not seem as bright as be- fore, and there was no music in the sound of tha waves. ‘‘Why did we kill that creature?’ said the girl, impulsively, “it was rot harming us.’’ ‘‘I don’t know,’ said the young man, shortly, ‘Does it steal from the farmers?’ ‘No, it lives on bark and shrubs.’’ ‘‘We did not want its skin—only Indians eat its flesh,’’ she continued. ‘‘Perhaps it was going home to its young ones. I feel as if I had committed a murder,’’ and, stop- ping short, she burst into tears, ‘Ah! now I like you better,’’ said her compan. ion, in a relieved tone of voice. ‘When women are merciful, men will not be merciless, ’

The Valuable Dogwood,

Dogwood wands make excelient whip- stocks and are used in somes of the best whips. They are cut sometimes by coach- men in the suburbs and sent to tuwn to be dressed and made up into whips. The stocks made of this wood are notable for their ornamental knobs at regular inter- vals, which are the truncated and rounded branches. These are imitated in some other whipstocks, bat the imitation isa cause of weakness. The dogwood stocks are extremely tough and elastic, being comparablo in elasticity with whalebone. The wood is used for butch- ers’ skewers, and some philologists con- jecture that the first syllable of the name isa corruption of ‘‘dag,’’ meaning a spine or dagger. Dogwood, being particu- larly free from silex, is used by watch- makers and opticians in cleaning watches and lenses. ‘The American Woodworker adds: Bitter bark of the dogwood is used as a substitute for the bark of the Per- uvian quinine tree.
