THROUG H THE BREAKERS.

BY MARY CECIL HAY.

a strangely nervous and so timid I had grown, that when | heard my husband s step at last, | ran to meet him just as he came as a deliverer.

The moon was riding frosty sky, when we stat ted out together for a stroll, Horace had himself fastened the soft furs around my neck, kissing me as he did so, and my heart beat joyously and proudly as | jeaned on his strong arm, and felt that 1 was yery precious to him.

So earnestly and happily were we talking, so perfect was the beauty of the night, that I had not noticed where we were going until we stopped before a gate | knew, and Horace bent

to open it. almost unconsci-

more together beside that great square stone beneath the cedar. Why had he brought me here, when we had both learned to iorget, aid had grown so happy ? Jf he would but speak ; if be would but talk to me and chase away these haanting memories which had not visited me since, in this very spot, he had told me how he loved me! If he would only tell me so again—loudly, that the words might drown this moaning ‘nu my ears, this rushing of the sea about my head, this ery of a faint and dlying voice! Why had he breathed her name al all to-night and raised this awful memory ?

‘© Horace, Horace, see the white dead face !”’

My cry had not broken his long silence, so I knew it was uttered only in my heart. I looked up eagerly, that the glance of his kind e7es might give me courage ; but that drowned fwe had come between us.

‘“() Horace,” Leried, groping with my hands, ‘take it away; take it away! She would have you save her and let me go Pe

Lheardthe question in my husband’s soft, kind tones, bat there was something else | beard far more distinctly.

** LISTEN

I cried, turning to face the blast of wind which came sweeping over the valley below ; ‘‘listen? -—listen !”

I waited for its coming with my arms.out- stretched, and when the storm had passed, and left me standing so, I fancied death had spared me once again, a3 it had done at sea, and | knew why. That story was to be told to Horace; here,

the grave where the voices moaned; now, be-

had brought death before, and might bring death agait.' The white dead face beneath that stone cried out for justice now ; the voices of the wind and sea cried out aloud their ac-

» ‘ensation:: I had a task to de in the Iull of

that great storm, and | must do it. I drew away from my husband's side, and stood op- posite to him in the shadow of the cedar; my eyes fixed steadily upon him, and my words slow and clear.

Quite still he-steod to listen, while 1 told him all ; quite still until | had finished; then, after an utter terrible pause, he fell on his knees besile the stone, and hid his face upoa it. I did not speak or move until he rose, after a long, long time; then I eagerly and piteously scanned his face, that I might glean only a ray of hope. Even in the shadow —for he was now leaning against the tree—I could see how rigid and coldly wixite his face had grown.

“<Q Horace,” I cried, falling on the grass de- fore him, and appealing to him with my burn-

%, ‘«) my husband, ail the sin thére may have been, you caused. If lL had not loved you——’ 4

Coldly and sternly he interrupted me, bid- ding me come away from beside that grave.

‘© Horace, take me back! We can be hap- yy still_-we know it; we have proved it; you ¢ often said it. You can forget this. 7 had

forgotten until you brought me here to-night, and that wave came rolling to us and left her

He raised me from the grass without amove- ment of his white and rigid face.

‘«T will take you to your home,” he said, “ond after that I wish I might

NEVER LOOK UPON your face again.” ;

‘* Why, Horace?” L whispered, with a va cant smile upon my parching lips; ‘we cannot be separated—you and 1; we are married, you know; they cannot separate us.”

** Weare separated now,” he answered slow- ly; “‘separated utterly and forever.”

I could see his face in the moonlight now, and I knew there was no hope for me.

** Horace !” IL cried, with such a cry ap might have reached to the cold dead around us, ‘‘Horace—forgive !”

Coldly he drew back from me, and then—I laughed; laughed loudly and shrilly, there in the silence ot the calm and beautiful - night. But when I saw his stern, white face grow colder still, I wondered why I had langhel.

“Nothing can separate us, Horace,” I whispered, trying to fixmy vacant gaze upon him, and smiling, as I thought, that my glad, low whisper must comfort hum. - ‘‘Nothing can separate us now. Don’t be frightened, Hor: ace; you are my husband, and I will not leave ve Did you dream that I could be so cruel ?

He tarned from me, shuddering through all his frame, and then | knew that the love which had been my very life

rs

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 caused 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 PorovUs PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other ae they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters wi)] do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind, All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it 1s entirely dif- ferent: the instant one 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 28 @ 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, convineed of the wonderful cures effected by DR. MELVIN’S CAPSIVNUM PoROUS PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, —_ in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for

yr. MELYIN’S CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER, You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effects. Aihesgh powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most ee ene to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture of ordin-~ ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will sell hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for DR. MeELVIn’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.
