The two played in silence. People ssually do when the stakes are so big that if they lose they can never play again. The fates must have been look- ing over their shoulders and enjoying the deadly game, fcr they drew it out to its utmost length. After the tenth game Salter was two ahead, and the inspector won the eleventh by six and the twelfth by seven.

‘Six and seven's thirteen, and we’ve the thirteenth game to play,’’ said Sal- ter, shaping the first actual sentence that had been epcken since the play be- gan. ‘Shouldn't wonder if I lost now. That's right; help yourself. Whisky's

good for shooting. My throw, I reckon.”

He shook the dice up, canted the box gently over, and the dice trickled out in a little white rattling stream. When they settled there were two aces, a six, a four and a two.

‘‘Two hundred and sixty’s not a bad start, but I guess I'll give the aces an- other chance.”’

He shook up the three dice. They came out an ace andtwosixes' His score was now 360, with two more

throws, but he had the option of leav- ing the six or including it in the next throw, on the chance of getting an ace instead of it. He left it and threw the two. They came up six and four, mak- ing his total 424, with one more throw. He tossed the four into the box and sent it rolling along the table. When it stop- ped it was a three

‘‘I’ve seen better,” he said, as he gathered the dice into the box and push- ed it over to the inspector, *‘but any- thing over 400 takes figures to beat it.’

‘*Tough Inck, but I guess to try again, pard.”’

The band of the man wuas firm though the heart of the father was shak- ing as the inspector turned the box over for the last time

true story of what had happened. Dutch policeman wisely concluded that a process of whitewashing would be good for his soul, so he had the inspect- or’s body conveyed with all honor across the border and delivered it to the 3ritish authorities with such an ac- count of the night's doings as fully in- sured their being the last of the exploits of the border gang

The Oftice.

Can any one tell how it happened, in the speech of our country people. that the word ‘‘postoffice’’ lost its first and more important half. and became sim- ply ‘‘the office?"”» In no New England village that I know of is the postoffice called anything else than ‘‘the office’ simply. In every village there are com- monly several offices. The doctor has one, and the squire has one, and the factory has a very important one; but people say, ‘*‘I am going to the office,” or ask, ‘‘Have you been to the office?” and they never mean anything but the postoffice, nor will you hear the word ‘*nostoffice’’ from one of them once ina month.

It strikes me asa curious abbrevia- tion, and it is very hard, even after years of it, to refrain from asking, ‘‘What office?’’ when the postoftfice is thus mentioned withont any previous reference to it.—Boston Transcript.

The individual who smnores should be ‘‘rapped’’ in slumber.

Suffering caused by Piles

Is Quickly Ended when————_——_—-

Dr. A. W. Ghase’s Ointment is applied

Besides the intense agony caused by the ftching, burning sensations of piles, there are other symptoms which produce restlessness and @i times excruciating pains known only to the victim of piles.

What would one give to be free of this terrible disease? And yet there is a cure—a positive cure—which does not cost much andis not painful or difficult to apply.

Dr. A. W. Chase's Ointment is, so far as is known, the only absolute cure for blind, itch- ing, bleeding and protruding piles. It gives relief at the first application and affords a per- fect cure in the most aggravated cases.

Mr. Isaac Foster, Erieview, Ont., says: “f was troubled with itching piles for two years and could not sleep at night. I was halfcrazed and tried everything. Finally seeing Dr. Chase’s Ointment advertised 1 tried it and foun@ it good. After a second application I found relief, and one large box cured me, Have never been bothered since, and I can re- commend it to all suffering from the same trouble.”

Dr. Chase's Ointment is for sale by all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Toronto
