If you want to preserve apples, don’t cause a break in the skin. The germs of decay thrive rapidly there. So the germs of consump- tion find good soil for work when the lining of thethroat and lungs is bruised, made raw, orinjured by coldsand coughs. Scott’s Emulsion, with hypophosphites, will heal inflamed mucus mem- branes. The time to take it is before serious damage has been done. A 5o0-cent bottle is enough for an or- dinary cold.

GRIZZLY BILL'S UNDOING.

BY A. J. MEISLER ‘Thrilling?’ said the major; ‘‘well, ! shonid say so It was the must exciting thing that ever occurred to ‘qe. Why, J can't even think of it now without shud lering a little. I was considerably

younger in those days than Iam now telegraph operator Mountain Valley mpany in a wertern mining country. It was a wild and lawless coun try and I was not much in love with my pla e, but being poor I was obliged to accept the conditions with the best posst-

which ran to the Ingot mines. Travel was not very extensive; in fact, but one train a day passed my lonely station. ‘On the 15th day of every month I re- ceived by express for the superintendent wf the Ingot Mining company the money with which the miners were pid off The amount averaged between $15, 00 } and $15,000. On the 14th of June in

| that year the superintendent of the mine-

came to me and said:— ‘* ‘Perkins, the pay money will be here to-morrow as usual; but I want you

} to exercise more than ordinary vigilance in guarding it, as I understand Grizzly Bill is operating in the mountains again.’ “Grizzly Bill was a name to inspire terror. The individnal who bore that unusual sobriquet was an outlaw of great daring and resolution; he stopped at nothing. It was, therefore, quite natural for me to feel some little trepidation. 1 assured the superintendent, however. that l would do all in my power fo guard the money; and I think,’’ contin-

ued the major, with some self-satisfac tion‘ ‘that I kept my word in this re-

sp ct

‘*During the night iolent rainstorm swept 1 before

which followed, a through the ntains, Shortly ten o'clock received word over the wire that the train from Pikeville could not get to Goldton owing to a washout below Summit Rock. Jt was thought that the track could be made passable by afternoon, and that the train would reach my station before six ‘lock. I communicated these facts to the mine superintendent by means of an wsistant who was always at the station during the day. ‘*At five o'clock thatevening I received * Message saying that it would be im- possible for the train to get through be- fore nine or ten o'clock the next morn- ing. I sent word to this effect to the mine superintendent, who, in turn com- municated it to the Feeling rather

tired I turned in early that night. Sleep, however, was out of the question.

“The baggage, freight, express and tel- were all under one roof. One corner of the big warehouse (it was hardly anything else) was partitioned off 30 as to make a private Inclosure. This box-like compartment I used for sleep ing, eating and the transaction of the sompany'a telegraphic and railroad busi- ness. The sender and receiver were iffixed to a table conveniently near my bed, and if necessary i¢ was possible to ransmit or take a message without even arising. Of course, I never found it necessary to do this; I simply mention it to illustrate the arrangement of the office.

‘‘Along toward midnight the telegraph instrument began to click. I heard my call, opened the key, and asked what was wanted. The operator at Pikeville wired back that the train which had been delayed on account of the washout had started for Goldton, and vywould reach there between three and four o’clock In

»>morning. At precisely a quarter to three o’cloce the train steamed into Gold ton

“The express messenger alighted and handed me a huge and many-ealed package. It contained $17,500.

‘Oh, that isn’t all,’ said the mes- senger, with a laugh; ‘I have a bex in the var that's as heavy as lead. We've

heen wondering all the way up the mountain what it contained,’

‘The box was lifted from placed on end in the freight department of the station. It was fully seven feet long and four wide—horribly suggestive of the rough box in which a coffin is in- I thought of this state after the train had resumed its journey. I put the pay money into the safe, turned the com- bination lock and retired. I fell into a ioze from which I was aroused with a start by what seemed to be the ticking of the sounder. It saidas clear as if some one had spoken: ‘Beware! danger threat- ens!’ Isat upin bed. The moon was shining brightly through the window. I gazed intently at the sounder. It made not the slightest motion, yet the mes- sage came again, this time even more startlingly distinct than before. What couldit possibly mean? I thought that I was dreaming.

“‘At any rate, upon hearing the third message my mind instantly reverted to

the car and

the huge box In the freight corner. The partitioning of my little apartment did not extend as high as the roof, but

merely a distance of about five fect above the level of my bed, and by standing on the bed I could peer over the top and see all parts of the iaterior of the station. I rose stealthily to an erect position and looked over the edge of the partition. The first thing I saw was the box standing on end near a window in the extreme end of the station; and as J looked, I saw its top slowly rise and a man’s head protrude itself.

“It was a thick, brutalized face, with grizzled whiskers. Instantly it flashed across my mind that it belonged to Grizzly Bull.

“The sight sent my heart into my throat with a bound, for I realized only too well that the outlaw would stop at nothing to get the money which he knew was In my possession. To him murder was child’s play. But after the first emo- tion of fear I felt perfectly calm. In truth, I felt as though fate had ‘thrown this desperado in my way so that I could conquer him. I don’t know why I felt thas; probably I experienced the same emotions that a soldier does who goes into battle with fear and trembling, yes who, when actually in the midst of danger, feels as cool and collected as though he were out of reach of all posst- bility of harm,

“I got ont of bed, picked up the coal shovel and scuttle and made as much noise as possible. As the night had been aon unusually coolonea fire was burning, and as I passed the stove I grabbed my revolver and thrust it inte my right coat pocket, Into my left pocket I thrust some nails and a hammer. Then, whist- ling as loudly as possible to mislead the desperado in the box, I left the little oiLce and walked acroas the floor of the

treight part of the station. Wheti imme- lately in front of the box I sprang at It with the fury of a man fighting for his life and overturned it. It fell to the floor top up, with ao resounding crash. In- stantiy I was astride the box driving nails into the lid as hard and fast as a man in terror for his life could do. And all that while I was yelling at the im- prisoned outlaw at the top of my voice, telling him that if he so much as wreathed I would instantly kill him. ‘But my threats did not appear to frighten him much, From the interior of the box came a volley of muffled oaths that would have astonished a Digger In- lian. I never heard such horrible pro- fanity. I fired my pistol twice in the air to let him know that I meant business. After awhile he became quiet. I care- fully examined the box and found that there was no danger of suffocating, for 1t the upper end were a number of tiny perforations which freely admitted air. “IT nat astride that box until my assist- ant arrived at seven o'clock. It was a long and trying vigil, but the magnitude of my victory buoyed me up. My assist- ‘nt was almost too much amazed to speak when I told him of my capture. He quickly went to the mines and told the superintendent to hasten at once with a sufficient guard of men to the station and take Grizzly Bill into cus tody. It didn't take long to do this; and when Bill was hauled by no gentle hands from the box he was the angriest vutlaw ever captured. He fought like « iger, but it was of no use. The men vho had him captive knew how danger- us he was. He was secur-ly bound ant ater in the day taken to Pikeville wher. 1@ Was subsequently sentenced to a Jon

erm of imprisonment in an easter penitentiary. ‘‘That little adventure, voncladed the major, ‘‘proved to he th turning point in my career. I was pro noted to an important position in th ‘ity, where I prospered, as you see. ! im to-day quite content with myse snd the world in general. ‘Chua ron s

THE “BIG” FOUR A Quartette of Remedies that are Effeet ing Wondertul Cures.

Dr. Chase’s four great remedies are? Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills, Dr. Chase's Ointment, Dr. Chase’s Catarrh Cure, and Dr. Chase’s Syrup of Linseed and Tur- pentine, his latest and greatest discovery for all throat and lung affections.

“T was sick for three years,” says James Simpson, of Newcomb Mills. “I tried various alleged patent cures and several boxes of a certain pill which has been greatly cracked up. 1 got no re- lief. Then I tried Dr. Chase’s Kidney- Liver Pills. Since, I have been able to work every day and feel like a uew man. Your pills alone cured me at & cost of 25c.”

“TI have been subject to severe colds every fall and spring.” suys Misa Hattie Delaney, of 174 Crawford street, Toron- to. “TI used many cough medicines, but none cured me until at a cost of 25 cente { tried Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine.”

“My husband was troubled with the worst kind of piles,” writes Mrs. Jane Potts, of Meyersburg. “He was often unable to work. Stuce using your Chase's Ointment he is completely cured. It is truly worth its weight in gold instead of the price you charge, only 60 cents.”*

“Ti bought a box of your Rateadlt Cure for 25 cents at Mr. Boyle's drug store here,” says Henry R. Nicholls of 176 Rectory street, London. Ont. “I am thankful to say it cured me.”

IN THE FACE OF DANGER. Blood-Curdling Adventure of a Woman in Her Husband's Sick Koom.

A few years ago my husband,then sta- tioned in India, was stricken down by fever, and on me devolved the duty of watching him. Our bungalow lay at some little distance from the barracks, and on the morning of the day on which we expected the crisis to occur I was anxiously awaiting the doctor's visit. When he arrived, after taking my hus- band’s temperature, he would not, he said, uttterly forbid me to hope, for it was still barely possible that the violence of the feyer might even yet give way to natural sleep, and recovery might ensue provided his slumber remained unbroken For some hours my husband continued to toss and inoan piteously By and by he passed into a disturbed sleep. Sosting wyself at the foot of the bed, I prepared to watch till he awoke.

An hour passed, when opposite me, through the veranda, I saw a large hooded cobra come gliding into the room. On it came, elevating its hideous head and emiting a hissing sound. As the venomous creature passed me the glare of its eyes made my blood run cold. It drew nearer and nearer to the bed; then, rearing up, appeared to be about to in-

sinuate itself among the pillows, but finally dropped down and coiled itself among the foids of a shawl which lay beside the bed. I advanced softly and raising my right foot, ground the heel of my right slipper down upon the

zicious head. I felt 15 writhe and the tail twist violently around my ankle, but not until it relaxed its folds did I remove my foot. There, thank God, lay the cobra, dead. The doctor found me lying unconscious soon after. My busband made a rapid recovery, and treasures as his most sacred treasufe a bluc silk slipper.—Golden Penny.
