\ SCANDAL
BY A. CONAN DOYLE. I.
To Sherlock Holmes she is always the woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other nam ’ s eves si eclipses and predemil at the w { ne x. | Was hol { any em mn to love f Irene Adler.

They were admirable things for ie observer—excellent for drawing the veil from men’s motives Sut for trained mer to admit such intrusions into his own delicate and finely adjusted temperament was to introduce tracting factor which might threwa doubt upon all his mental results. Grit in a sensitive instrument, or a crack in of his own high-power lenses, would not be more disturbing than a strong emotion in a nature such as his, and yet there was but one woman to him, and that woman was the late Irene Adler, of dubieus and question- able memory.
I had seen little of Holmes lately. My marriage had drifted usaway from each other. My own complete happi- ness, and the home-ceutered interests which rise up around the man who first finds himself master of his own estab- lishment, were sufficient to absorb all my attention; while Holmes, who loathed every form of society with his whole Bohemian soul, remained in our lodgings in Baker street, buried among his old books, and alternating from week to week between cocaine and ambition, the drowsiness of the drug, and the fierce energy of his own keen nature. He was still, as ever, deeply attracted by the study of crime, and occupied his immense faculties and extraordinary powers of observation in following out these clews, and clearing up those mysteries, which had been abandoned as hopeless by the official

As he® spoke there was the shart sound of horses’ hoofs and grating wheels against the curb, followed by a sharp pull at the bell. Holmes whistled. .
“A pair, by the sound,” said he. “Yes.” he continued, glancing out of the window. ‘A nice little brougham and a pair of beauties. A hundred and fifty guineas apiece. There’s money in this ease, Watson, if there is nothing else.”

THE BANNER OF DEATH.
A man cannot straddle the fence when it comes to the question of good health or ill - health. Either he marches un- der the flag of health or the banner of death. It is the simplest thing in the world to gain aad keep health, if men and women only will. For that reason it is almost incredi- ble that men and women will continue te
realize that they are marching under the banner of death.
The great majority of diseases have their inception in indigestion, biliousness and impure blood. Among these diseases are deadly consumption, nerve-racking, brain- wrecking nervous prostration and exhaus- tion, body-torturing rheumatism, insanity- breeding neuralgia, emaciating malaria and all manner of disfiguring blood and skin diseases. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- covery is a cure for all these diseases, if taken in anything like reasonable time. It is not a cure-all, but cures the diseases men- tioned for the reason that they are caused and aggravated by the same disorders. It makes the appetite keen, the digestion per- fect, the liver active, the blood pure and builds firm flesh and healthy nerve fiber. Don’t be wheedled by a peuny-grabbing dealer into taking sqmething else.
“Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery cured me of a severe case of poisoning of the blood,” writes Mrs. Selia Ricca, of Coast, Santa Cruz Co., Cal. “Boils, one after another, would break out on my arms, and were very painful. I have tried the loudly praised sarsaparillas without any benefit whatever, and not until I took the * Discovery’ did I get well. That was two years igo, and I have not had a boil or sore of any sind since.”
Accidents occur in every home. Dr. Pierce’s Common Sense Medical Adviser tells what todo. Send 31 one-cent stamps, to cover cost of customs and mailing only, to the World’s Dispensary Medical Asso- ciation, Buffalo, N. Y.. for a paper-covered copy. French cloth binding, 50 stamps.
