That same morning Max telegraph- ed his father that he would be home the following day, and that they might get up a2 appropriate recep- tion, if they liked, for he was bring- ing home a bride.
But Maud Pemberton’s letter had already been received, falling like a bombshell inta the peace and quiet of the old merchant prince’s household.
Tt must certainly have been a very malicious, cruel letter, for Mrs. rester went into hysterics long before she had read the half of it.

YV\OYQGC nance to the bride Max was bringttg home, it was decided that a reception or so- ciety would gossip.
It might as well be gotten over first as last. But, oh, how Mrs. Forrester trembled at the thought, of introduc- ing the uncultured creature, Maud Pemberotn’s letter had pictured as her son’s wife, to her aristocratic guests. As she thought of it, she al- most hated her son; and she hated with a double bitterness the girl he had married.
‘‘T do not know how I shall meet them,’’ murmured Mrs. Forrester, nervously, when the propitious hour drew nigh, and she had stolen away from her guests to her own room to regain something like composure. ‘‘I have never felt that it was impos- sible to be civil before,’’ she said, plaintively, to her husband. ‘‘ What shall I do? My sense, and tact fail Hark! There is the sound of carriage wheels now.’’
‘‘May I come in?’’ asked a voice from the door. And Inez Clavering stood on the threshold.
Mrs. Forrester was glad of her pres- She felt that some one must be near her in this dreadful ordeal.
A closed carriage dashed quickly up
For- . the drive that led to the side porch.
A white, frightened face peered out at the palatial home, all ablaze with light from the lace-draped, rose-em- bowered windows.
‘“‘Oh, Max!’’ cried Florabel, tremul- ously. as she clung to her young bus- band’s arm. ‘‘How I dread the ordeal of meeting your relatives. Do yon think they will like me? Oh! there is a party or something going on; let us go back and wait until to-morrow. I never feel comfortable among strang- *? she added, piteously.

folly must rest upon his own rash Many a young man has wreck- ed his life upon just such a rock, and lived to rue it while his life lasted. With such a marriage, regret and dis- appointment are sure to follow. ‘‘If he has married Max for his money, money will release him. I would give her half my fortune to give him back his freedom,’’ Mrs. Forrester answer- ed, bitterly. -
Inez Clavering, their lovely guest, heard of Max Forrester’s marriage with a stifled cry of dismay, and that same evening she wrote a hurried let- ter to her parents in Virginia, break- ing at once into the subject uppermost in her mind.
‘“‘IT might as well come once, mamma,’’ she wrote. ‘‘My visit here is useless—worse than use- less. Mrs. Forrester has just receiv- ed a telegram from her son that he is married, and bride. That means ruin for us; yet nobody shall know how we are tremb- ling on the verge of bankruptcy, and had hoped that I might win handsome Max Forrester to retrieve our crumb- ling fortunes.

His mother raised her eyes, and saw a lovely, dimpled young face framed in a mass of crinkled, tawny, curling hair; a pair of brown, startled, hazel eyes, and a red, quivering mouth. With a sudden impulse, Florabel stepped forward, shyly lifting her eyes to that cold, hard face.
‘‘T hope you will love me,’’ she murmured, softly,; ‘‘if not for my own sake, for Max’s. I have never known a mother’s love since 1 was a very. little child.-and I have vearned
The Danger of
PILES
Too frequently overlooked, Dr. Chase’s Ointment a Prompt and Positive Cure,
The suffering caused by the intense itchin and burning sensations of piles is only one o the horrors of this disease, for there is always great danger of piles developing into fistula, one of the most disgusting diseases imaginable.
Even the great danger and expense of an cperation are preferable to running the risk of contracting this most loathsome ol Gomes.
But there is ro necessity for a surgical opera- tion wd les. Dr. Chase's Ointment is
to cure any Case of piles, no matter
of nog long standing, or how aggravated the
— be, so jong as piles have not become t
It is only by rare chance that interna] treat- ment will cure piles. But it matters not from what cause they arise, Dr. Chase's Ointment will at once stop the itching and burning, and soun effect a perfect cure,

or yours so much.’’ stant two soft white were around Mrs. Forrester’s neck and two sweet rose-bud lips sought hers in a timid kiss.
The heart of the old merchant prince wept out to Florabel on the spot, but his wife was prejudiced against her. She groaned ont in spirit:
‘‘A pretty face—that much I grant.
But, oh! how unsuited to my kand- some Max! I shall not like her. Would to Heaven he had married Inez Clavering instead !”’
Meanwhile Inez Clavering was be- ing presented to Max and his bride.
Max Forrester bowed low before the queenly girl, and Florabel, look- ing into her face, read startled admir- ation there, and a fierce pang of jeal- ous pain shot through her undiscip- lined little heart. Max was thinking as he gazed on the wondrous beauty of that fatally lovely face, that this was the most beautiful young girl whom he had ever beheld.
She held out her white, jeweled brand to Max with the charming smile peculiar to her, and kissed Florabel’s red mouth sweetly. And Florabel, looking into that dark, sparkling, wondrous face, wondered vaguely why Max had ever chosen her when he might have wedded this peerless, dark-eyed beauty.
How beautifully she was dressed, too! How was Florabel to know that the mad idea had taken possession of Inez to outshine the little bride’s fair loveliness—to outrival her—that she might pale into insignificance when contrasted with her own dark, dazzling splendor. Then Max Forres- ter woud see what he had lost, and re- gret, perhaps, that he had not chosen her.
When Florabel found herself alone in her room a few momegts later, she could not repress the flood of tears coat welled up to her eyes.
