THE SISTER'S STRATAGEM., CONCLUSION.

All the way from the station to Mr. Malcolm's residence, conversation was lively in the style related above. Of course it made their visitors feel miser- able.

Next morning it was no better. The coffee and muftins were not as they should be, and the quarrel ended in hysterics and slamming thedoors. At 290 Mrs, Malcolm assailed her hus- band about the gas.

“There's a pipe that leaks !’ she ex- claimed, “ Am don't believe you will ever see to it. I told you about it before I left, but, of eourse, there couldn't be anything done unless I was here. I wish that you had common sense.”

My dear,” said her husband in mildj surprise; but she trod on his toes so vigorously under the table that he fairly groaned.

“You're always finding fault with something,” he snapped. ‘I don’t be- lieve an angel could please you.”

‘Compare yourself to an angel, will you?” sneered his wife. You look like an angel, don’t you, with your face as red as a lobster, from drinking brandy?”

“Tl dpply for a judicial separation. I won't live with such a shrew. I'd rather live with the evil one.”

“Td rather you would,” said. his wife. “As for the judicial separation, I’m going to apply for one myself, so you needn't be troubled about it.

That afternoon, Maria asked if scenes like that, and those preceeding were} usual.

“Frankly,” said Mrs. Malcolm, ‘ no; my husband and J haye never quarrelled but once-since we were married. That once was enough, and neither of us has any inclination to taste of the waters of bitterness again.”

Mrs. Strother uttered an astonished exclamation, and her sister continued —“ the fact is, my dear, our quarrell- ing was only acting, and was arranged heférehand, with a certain purpose in view, which, perhaps, you will compre- hend. It was holding the mirror up to nature, and if the refleetion displeases you, what must be the reality ?”’

Mrs. Strother hung her head for a moment, and then she arose and kissed her sister.

“} thank you,” she said, “for the lesson, And I will endeavor to profit by it.”’

And when her husband came in, she told him all about it.

Atifirst he was disposed to be angry‘ bution’ thinking it over, he was forced to admit that the picture was far more truthful than it ought to be. And he joined with his wife in. thanking his hostess for such a lesson. And, the

lesson proved fruitful of good results. From that day to this, Mr. and Mrs. Strother have never been known to quarrel. —

‘Tux Barper Snop of THE FoTuRE.— A Detroit barber has been thinking, and planning, and dreaming, and in his mind's eye he sees what can be brought about as soon as he has earned the money to pay the bill.

‘He sees a three-story barber shop on the corner, with elevators carrying the unshaved from floor to floor, and send- ing them down again. Billiard rooms, a gymnasium, a Summer garden, and a dancing hall are in the plans.

A silver fountain. throws streams of Cologne water to the ceiling. The bar- ber chairs have nickle plated legs. The razore have handles of solid gold. The walls are. mirrors, in which the happy face of the proprietor is reflected ten thousand times. A band plays soft, sad strains. Angelic whispers float through space, Unseen silver fans cool the brow"6f each customer. While he is being shaved his boots are blacked, a ten.dollar bill is slipped into his pocket, perfume thrown over him, and a tailor meastres him for a suit of clothes which is not te cost him a.cent. As he goes out be is given a ticket to the opera, a lottery ticket, a new silk hat, a gold headed cane, and a steam-winding watch, and if he offers to pay for them, the proprietor of the shop softly re-

lies; “If you has been made happy, e grand objeck am accomplished.’

(CAPSICUM)

The Greatest Medical Diseavars 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 PoRoUS PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who haye used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will 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 effeet gcure; but with these it is 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 as & 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 eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’S CAPSIOUM Porous PLasTers, and their superiority over ai! other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plaster, orliniment. After you have tried pe yey ters and liniments, and they bave failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for

R. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER, You ean hardly believe Tee convictions of ite wonderful effects. Although powerful and

uick in its action, you can rely on its safe

or the most delicate person to wear, as it free from jead and other poisonous mater commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial je a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and ope plaster will seli hundreds to your friends, . |)

Ask your druggist for Dr. MELYIN’s CAPsi- CUM PoROoUS 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.
