DEATH AT HIS ANVIL.

The blacksmith is usually looked upon as the ideal of robust health. Ttis is fre- quently the case, but nevertheless he is subject to the same ills that afflict other men, and owfng to the arduous nature of his dailv toil, the re- sults of bilious attacks or indigestion are likely to be even more serious and speedy than in the case of men who lead sedentary lives. The harder a man works, whether at the anvil, or bench or plow handie, the more important is the necessity for a care- ful watchfulness over health.

When a hardworking man finds that his liver is torpid or his digestion bad, he can save himself much discomfort, and possibly a serious sickness. by resorting af once to Ir. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. The man who does this will always go to his work and come from it, whistling. A good wife or mother can be of great aid in this respect. Hard working men are prone to disregard little disorders and let them rut on. The good wife should see to it that there is alwuys a bottle of ‘Golden Medical Discovery’ in the house, and that it is used when needed. An honest dealer won't advise a substitute.

‘* About four ye: ars ago I was greatly afflicted with torpid liver,”’ writes Miss Nellie Do ‘le, of Potsdam, St. L: awre nce Co., N.Y. “A half dozen bottles of Dr. Pierce's Gol Ide n Medical Discovery made me‘a new woman.’ I truly believe your remedy saved my life. Iam having good heaith, and can do all my own housework.”

Did you see to whom that let- was

**T could not help but notice, sir,’ the man answered, respectfully. ‘‘It was addressed to the gentleman who just left here—Mr. Arthur Hurlhurst, New York City. I cannot remember the street and number.’’

He saw Max Forrester’s face white as death as he wheeled and strode down the corridor towards his wife’s apartments.

incoherently.

He had taken her so munch by sur- pise she did not have the opportunity of thinking up a snitable reply.

‘*Will you tell me what else you wrote?"’

His voice, in its low, sity, might have warned did not.

‘*No,”’ she replied, not.”’

At that instant the blotter on her writing desk, which she had so lately used, caught his eye.

By some strange fatality the blotter WAS a one, that occasion, drying the ink on the hastily written note she had penned to Ar- thur.

What did those warning lines mean? He snatched it in his hand, an old college trick recurring to and held it before the mirror.

Oh, God! the pity of it! standing out in bold relief, he read these words, and they convicted poor, innocent, hapless Florabel in his eves:

‘‘Dear Arthur — I trouble. Come My heart is pects—’’

This was all that was legible, was quite enough. Max fborrester turned to her with a bitter cry, his face fairly livid with passion.

‘*No need for me to ask what man is to you, after such a this!’’ he cried, hoarselv. ‘‘Now lis- ten to what I have to say. To-night —aye, this hour—I leave you forever. I pray Heaven I may never look on your fair, false face again !’’

CHAPTER XIV.

A moment later she heard the swift galloping of a horse going down the chestnut drive. Every clatter of the iron hoofs struck a death knell to her heart.

No cry came from her white, closed lips that looked as though they would neyer open again; no statue, carved from stone or marble, was ever more silent or motionless. Outside the wind stirred the leaves of the trees, dying away in a low moan over tne

rose garden ; was deaf, dumb and blind under this great stroke of mortal anguish.

She was trying to realize that he was gone from her; that of his own will he had left her—the lover who had wooed and wedded her; that she should never look upon his face again. It was utterly impossible— utterly absurd.

She heard the sound of a wild langh, and was startled by it, not knowing that it was her own.

He had gone out of her life forever, to return no more, and he—her own husband—given to her before Heaven and man—how could he have left her forever?

Gradually the mist clears from her brain; her thoughts grow distinct, and she realizes the full horror of the awful sorrow that has fallen upon her.

There must have been a sense of something wrong in the household, for when John reached the servants’ hall and saw Gregory, the maid, he said, hurriedly:

‘*I do not like the looks of matters about young master’s apartments. It isa dreadful thing to say, but Iam almost afraid that he has quarreled I heard loud and angry words from their boudoir a little while since, then he rode away from the house like one mad. Make some excuse to go and speak to her. She will have little enough sympathy rom his mother or Miss Clavering, They have been trying

house. ’”’

‘*T will go down to her at once, said Gregory, with her kindly face full of sympathy.

She hurried through the long marble corridors to Florabel’s room.

The door was ajar. She pushed it open and entered. Gregory was startled at the ghastly face turned to- ward her.

‘*Oh, my dear young lady, you are in tronble!’’ she cried, hastening to- { ward her:

iS YOUR THROAT SORE?

There is Nothing so Good for Sore Throat, Swollen Cords Neck, as Griffiths’ Menthol Yini- ment. Here is the Proof,

Mrs. Edwards, 385 Princess-street, King- ston, writes: I have found Griffiths’ Men- thol Liniment a perfect cure for sore throat. Last fall I had La Grippe and my throat became very sore and much swollen. In less than an hour after using Griffiths’ Menthol Liniment all soreness had disap peared. My neighbor, Mrs. Gilmore, used it in my house one afternoon for stiff neck, and in less than 15 minutes the stiffness and soreness had entirely disappeared. For any swelling or soreness use Griffiths’ Men- thol Liniment. Sold everywhere, 25 and 75 cents,
