CHAPTER IX,

A sharp reverpderating report, follow- ing almost immediately on a zigzag line of light that seemed fairly to cleave the heavems in twain, completed her dismay. Blinded, bewildered, terrified, she glanced wildly about her and recog- nized the extremity of her foolish dar- ing. She was lost on the cliffs and knew not which direction to give her next steps.

Like a veritable babe in the woods she sat down on the nearest tree root, lifted up her voice and wept.

A gentle, ineffectual protest against fate’s malicious treatment of her was that wuil, mingling with the ominous crackling of dead limbs suddenly part- ing with the parent stem, pealing thun- der and the impetuous rush of countless rivulets dashing headlong down the cliff to pay tribute to the black pond at its base. But that human cry was most unexpectedly answered in human fash-

| ion. At her very feet, apparently, a

question was asked in a wondering, symypathizing voice:

**Gord-a-mity! Wat you doin here? Is you los’, little mistis?’’

‘“‘Oh, Abram, lost and frightened to death !”’

Then she recoiled ina greater terror than eny that had gone before, but only a fleeting distrust seized upon her and it left her full of remorse.

**You ketch your deff uv col settin on | I gwine git you out er |

dem wet roots. here, litthk mistis, in a hurry, even ef dey bags me fur it.”’

From a hollow in the trunk cf an immense tree, a leaf strewn and ca- pacious cave, the tattered shoulders were first thrust, then the agile limbs, and French Abe, already a degree less

| wolfish about the eyes, stood fully re-

vealed. “You ain’t skeered to follow Abe, is you, little mistis?’’

weaving. Even before they had turned at sound of Abe's excited voice Liza had grasped the meaning of their pres- ence. It was Strong aad Randal Cham- shelter in old Scipio’s cabin, evidently in pursuit of Abram. It was his master he was greet- ing tumultuously :

“Howdy, Mars Ran? Howdy,marster? Yher’s me! Yher’s your nigger! I tale dat triflin Foulksis I were cumin home wen you git back. Who ben black your shoes, Mars Ran? Dey look mity rusty.”’ Panting, laughing, questioning, he stood

before his adored owner.

Liza’s appearance simultaneously with Abram’s caused a diversion of aston- ishment in her direction. Strong was regarding her darkly; Chambliss with perplexed, impersonal curiosity.

Strong scareely waited for her to reach his side.

‘*What is the meaning of this, Liza? Why did you not stay at my house? You are drenched.”’

**Yes, drenched. Jf it had not been for Abe there, I should have been dead with fright by this time; soa drench- ing seems slight by comparison. I got lost trying to find my way back to poor little Fancy. Abram found me, and— here I am.”’

She was composedlv shaking the rain- drops from her hat. Its ramoval had brought to view a charming disarray of moist brown waves curling tightly about her blue veined temples. Randal Chambliss was regarding her with. that inscrutable srrile that had set her cheeks to tingling with wrath the day before.

‘*‘Caliban and Miranda,’ he said mus- ingly. Then, conventionally, ‘‘I am sure I ought to be very much obliged te

( you, Miss Martin.”’

‘*For what?” ‘‘Por ‘restoring this ragamuffm te my arms. Life is barren without Abe.”’

The negative he waited for so anx- | ‘“‘I assure, youl had nothing to do

witk your boy’s restoration. He has done mea great service, and I did tell him you had got home. I hope yoa

too, and Abe ain’ mever run ’way tell |

Mars Ran go “way and lef’ him. Hea gentieman’s body sarvint. That w’sat this nigyer is. here ef you'll follow me. Abe knows dese woods tolluble well by dis time.’”’

Liza rose with trust in her eyes and in her voice. After all, why should he not be as good as his promise? Was she not getting back the bread—Strong’s bread—-which she had cast upon the waters with unexpected promptness? Now she could speak that word of corm- fort:

‘‘Atram, you need not be afraid to pilot me out of these wooeds. Mr. Ran- dal has come back. You can go to Lau- rel Dell this morning, if you want ta, withont fear of punishment. ’’

‘“Mars Ran come back? Den dis nig- ger gwine quit his foolishness. I done tole myseff I gwine stay in de cane tell Mars Ran sen me word to come back. He didn’t b’leeve me, dat good fur nothin po’ w’ite trash uv a overseer, w’en I say I couldn’ pick cotton. He ain’ wuth a nigger, nary nigger uv his own. I don teached him a less’n.’’

This in monologue Bs he rapidly wound his way unwaveringly through the wet green maze about them, closely followed by Liza. So, even this pocr starveling, this tattered fugitive slave, could afford to despise her father—an overseer! The very abject of the earth could fearlessly spit upon the name of Martin! And there was no man among

“T believe I have contracted a had

While There’s Life and Dr. Chase's Catarrh Cure There's Hope.

1 had suffered so many years from catarrh that I don’t know that I will ever get it out of my remembrance. One day, when I took one of the end- legs prescriptions given me by the

medicnxl man to a druggist, I asked him hluntiy, “ Will this cure me, or i will it not? Or will it be like the

and that

rest 7? I was nearly desperate, I can tell you. The druggist said :—* No, nething can cure catarrh. If have it myself until I often think of suicide. I

took the prescription away unfilled and went home, thinking of what the drug- gist had said about suicide, and I was I have that pre- scription yet. One day my deliverance came. A lady told me she had suffered just as I had, and was nearly insane, a remedy known as Dr. Chase’s Catarrh Cure had actually cured her. I had read a bt about Dr. Chase’s Catarrh Cure, but I felt to- ward it as I did toward other medi- | cines; had no faith. I tried it as a last resort. I used two boxes of Dr. Chase’s Catarrh Cure, and found it a complete cure. | MRS. M. V. ROSE, Holloway, Ont.
