S, A.J rm ETC, LIPPINCOTT co. |} (Continued. ) mow, the surgeon had come but lately He had served but a few Blake promptly followed suit, but when Main- waring heard it Mainwaring bristled. “What right’s a d——d doctor to ex- pect to be called anything but doctor?’ be asked, explosively, and he no more meant to be offensive or thought he could be considered offensive in his Janguage than did the doctor in claim- And then, as’ Mainwaring prided himself on ‘‘nev- er saying behind a fellow's back what he wouldn’t say to his face,’’ and the Lord only knew what he hadn't said to people’s faces—what did the major do, only that very day, but, in attempted jocularity, pitch into the post surgeon at the morning gathering of t) iicers Z and try to chaff him about wanting to be called colonel! It stung the honest old soldier surgeon tothe quick. It hurt im sore, and he left the room dis- gu l. And so, when from the lips of this e-}} tre , rea a ‘ Ps +i+le Vi In 1. post surg I had been thinking intently over the on 0 tha ¥. 2a must be told, was wondering how he uld get squal Main war- ing and here was a possible opportunity. Obedient to his superior’s nod, the hospital steward went out, closing the door behind him. ‘* What is it, Hunter?’’ asked the sur- geon kindly. ‘*T have come toask, sir, if it would ; . . be possible for me toreturn tomy troop tonight, and if thecolonel could aid me in any way to get afurlough of 2) or 30 days.”’ Colonel Connell looked up, perplexed, | even troubled. Both requests were un- usual from old soldiers and never beard of from recruits. ‘‘Il fear not, Hunter. You see, there are reasons why you ought not to at- ne<i. S i tempt to return toduty yet, and what can you allege as reason for a furlough so soon after enlistment?’ ‘*Urgent personal affairs, sir,’’ was the answer, a half smile twitching at the corners of the handsome mouth. ‘‘Even a trooper may have them, you %? | know.’”’ J. H. BELL | two or three days yet and don’t let any | | ‘*‘Hunter,’’ said the surgeon aftera moment’s pause, ‘‘be advised by me. Don’t think of going back to duty for | one know you wish to leave Ransom on | any account just now.’’ For a moment there was silence. The soldier still remained respectfully at at- tention, standing close to the door. The surgeon had spoken impressively, ear- nestly, significantly, and Hunter could not but notice it, could not but realize that behind it there was some urgent meaning or reason, yet he persisted. ‘*l hope the colonel will pardon me,”’ he said. ‘‘I will not refer to the fur- lough again until I can explain more fully, which will be possible after I have talked with Captain Ray, but, as to returning to the troop, I beg that I may not be detained here through—an- | other morning.’’ The surgeon was seated in a wicker bottom office chair, which he twisted round, and so squarely faced his visitor, looking keenly yet not unkindly into the pale, handsome face. It was a mo- ment before he spoke. “I thought you greatly appreciated those morning readings,’’ said he at last. ‘‘I’m sure the young lady has done very much to make hospital life bear- able.’’ It was Hunter’s turn to color, but ee -- > —_—_ One of the most dangef- ous and repulsive forms of Kidney Disease is ROPSY for which Dodd's Kidney Pills are the only certain cure.

Into the outer hall came banging a burly form enwrappéd in cavalry cir- cular. ‘‘ Where's Dr. Connell?’’ brusque- ly demanded a loud, unmodulated voice. Then, slap bang, with’all his character- istic impetuosity, Mainwaring burst in- to the room. Direct as ever, never noting or caring who was present, he went straight to the point. ‘‘Hello, docl’’ said he, loud, gruff, yet hearty. ‘‘Just the man I’m looking for. Say, Truscott tells me I hurt your feelings this morning, and I’ve come to ’pologize. I didn’t mean a d——d thing. It’sallright. If you want to be called colonel, why, colonel it shall be. I'll issue orders calling the attention of the whole command to it, if you like.’’ And then for the first time he became aware of the tall soldier, now trying to slip quietly behind him so as to leave the room. Mainwaring whirled on him in a trice. ‘‘Hello, you’re up agzin, are you? Well, this man’s able to an swer for hinmas« lf how, I si 8, GoC-~-er— colonel?’’ I had f his chair and held up a hand appeal i! is atill a pat t charge, sir, and is not restored to bea ‘ T “Oh y u needn't protest. I’m done for the present. I’m giving way to ev- erybody this evening, all on your ac count.’’ Here the surgeon signaled sig- nificantly to the soldier, and, silent- ly, wonderingly, Hunter withdrew : ‘Relief, halt!’’ he ‘***Tisn’t only Truscott. My wife’s jumped on me with both feet; says I’ve insulted you—done nothing but make enemies ever since I came into the —th. Why, I’ve been catching it right and left, duc—colonel; haven’t had a mo- ment’s peace. What d’you think that dash dashed long legged lath of a man Blake says to me not an hour ago, begad? I asked bim if he thought you had any right to feel offended, and he said if you didn't it was only because every- body agreed that no notice was to be | revitalizer of the most unusual merit, taken of anything I ever said. I never If I thought he meant what he said, by God, he’d be in arrest this mipute.’’ warning band. ‘‘Pray do not speak quite so loud, Mainwaring,’’ said he. ‘*Some of my patients are trying to slesp. I beg you will think no more of this morning’s incident. What you have said is more than sufficient. Iam possibly hypersensitive. ”’ And then it was the doctor’s turn to be abruptly silenced. Fora second time the outer door was hurriedly opened, silvery voices and soft laughter were heard in the corridor, and then, mar- ahaled by Blake, there at the entrance tood Mrs. Mainwaring, and behind her, silent and a trifle pale and anxious looking, Kate Leroy. ‘*] knew he’d be coming right over here,’’ laughed Mrs. Mainwaring. ‘*But really, Colonel Connell, my bus- band is even more impetuous in rushing to make amends than he is in treading on people’s tender spots. No, don’t go wandering off to the wards, Kate,’’ she cried, for Miss Leroy looked anxiously up the corridor and showed a tendency to follow her eyes. ‘‘Come now, major, if you have finished what you were s#ay- ing to the colonel, we want you to come home. Indeed,’’ she persisted, as she saw bow angrily his eyes were regard- ing Blake, ‘‘you’ve got to come and make your peace with us now, for you were simply unbearable all through dinner, and we had to ask Captain Blake to escort us in search of you.”’ Then, as Mainwaring still held back as though striving to speak, she seized his arm. ‘‘Come. ering her voice, ‘‘I must speak with you before you go any further in that case.” And then did Connell feel sure she spoke of Hunter. An instant later he was surer still, for in came an attendant, alarm on bis face. ‘“‘Did the post surgeon give Hunter permission to leave hospital? He’s pick- ed up his coat and gone, sir.”’ Outside the moon was sbining bright- ly on the glistening snow. Objects were nlainly visible over 100 yards away. Mainwaring sprang to the door with ex- citement in bis eyes and fiew to the porch, the others following in every stage of astonishment. Outside the gate, as Iuck would have it, was marching relief of the guard, the men swinging rapidly by in their heavy winter dress, the carbine butts grasped in their fur gloved hands, the gleaming barre.s toss- gd over the shoulder. Over toward the ¢rader’s store a tall, slender form in sol- dier’s overcoat was rapidly striding. Mainwaring’s voice rang out with the force and volume of a trombone. ‘Halt your relief, corporal! Catch that man over yonder, quick, and bring him here!”’ i 1 obeyed. Astonished, the —— a 4 A , i -. } i a Indeed,’’ low- | i | ; | | | Again the post surgeon held up a/| blood and ~~ rushed. “Falt! Huait, you!"’ was the next shout, and all in a moment they had overhauled the offending soldier. There was brief parley, and then buck | they came, the unresisting prisoner be- tween the two members of the guard. “Oh,” almost whimpered Mrs. Main- | waring, “‘do hear Captain Blake first! | He’s sure there’s some mistake’’— Then | broke off short with exclamation amaze. From the lips of Kate Leroy, ; too, there burst a stifled cry, for there, before them, his clear cut, refined face | perfectly outlined in the brilliant moon- | , light—there, clad iu the rough garb of | a private soldier, stood the courteous, helpful, distinguished looking stranger of the night of the collision. Mainwaring must have had a love for the dramatic. “Corporal Rice,’’ said he deliberate- ly, ‘‘take Trooper Hunter to the guard. | house and confine him by my order on | the charge of conniving at the robbery and destruction of the magazine.’’ CHAPTER XIII. In the 48 hours that followed the ar- rest and incarceration of Trooper Hun- ter one excitement chased another with such rapidity that it was hard to keep track of them, and Mainwaring, with almost a sigh of relief, welcomed the premature return of old Stannard, to | whom somebody (believed to be Ray) had given the tip by telegraph that the | sooner he got back the better. ‘Take this infernal regiment and see what you can do with it,” said Main- Waring despairingly. ‘‘I thought I knew something about saldiering, but there’s too d——d much individuality in the —th for me.”’ (To be Continued. ) Gultivate Good Gaia Whenever there is an ache or pain. when the appetite fails, when there are | sleepless nights and momentary speils | or weakness, look for the cause, and see that it is removed at once.
