The park was gloomy and deserted, and ahont hslf way down the middle road he suddenly turned and came toward me. I ¢@rew my hat over my eyes and hoped to pass unreccg- nized, for I was taken by surprise and bad nothing ready to say. But, inst of going by me, he seized me roughly by the collar of my coat with his fingei in my neck and muttered through his teeth in Russian: ‘Now, then, you lit tle spying skoteena, I have yon, yea see. You are caught this time, ms man!’ When a baby stiles in its sleep it is the mother’s fond belief that an angel is kiss- \\ ingit. No woman \\\\ attains the su- ¥ preme joy of wo- ‘\ manhood until \ she knows the . caressing touch . of a first - born’s fingers. No wo- man knows the supreme sorrow of womanhood until she sees her baby in tte cold embrace of death. i —_—"\ (fees 3} Thousands of women daily achieve wo- manhood's supremest joy, only to meet, a few days or weeks or months later, its supremest sorrow. This is because so many babies are born into the world with the seeds of death already sowu in their little bodies. If a woman would have healthy, robust children, strong and able to withstand the usual little illnesses of -hitdhood, she must “look before she leaps.’’ If a woman will take the proper care of her health in a womanly way, during the period of prospective maternity, she may rotect herself against much pain and suf- ering and possible death, and insure the health of her child. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the greatest of all medicines for prospective mothers. It acts directly on the delicate and important organs that bear the burdens of maternity and makes them strong, healthy, vigorous and elastic. It allays inflammation, heals ulceration, soothes pain and tones the tortured nerves. It banishes the usual discemforts of the expectant period and makes baby’s advent to this world easy and almost painless. It insures an ample supply of nourishment. It is the greatest known nerve tonic and invigorator for women. All good dealers sell it. Say ‘‘No” and stick to it when urged to accept a substitute said to be ‘‘just as good as Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription.’’ “TI had miscarried twice and was so weak I could not stand on my feet,” writes Mrs. Minnie Smith, P. M., of Lowell, Lane Co., Oregon. “A took two bottles of Dr. P1 scription and now have a healthy baby and am stronger than for twelve years.”’ The quick constipation - cure — Doctor Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets.

He was twice my size and strength, and with a neckerchief that he wore he tied me round the face in such a way that my mouth remained gagged. Then he took my arm and waiked me toward the lake, called the Serpentine, going over grass and railings; I praying hard the while, for | thought the man was stark mad and that my last hour had come. ”’ CHAPTER XIL THE SUPPOSED COUNT IN DISGRACE. ‘My poor Viadimir!’’ groaned my mother at this point of Borofsky’s let- ter. ‘‘He must indeed be mad to have acted in this way. Just think of it, Boris! This violence, this murderous anger, from your dear father!”’ “It is not a bit like him, I admit,’ Isaid. ‘‘He must have been furiously angry for some reason. Shall I go on? He did no barm to Borofsky, at any rate, for Borofsky is all right—vide his letter. ”’ I continued to read: “The count dragged me to the very shore of the lake and there stopped. 1 thought he would now push me in and was prepared to fight for my life, but instead he spoke: ***Yon deserve death unheard,’ he said, ‘but I shall allow you to speak once in your defense, but observe, speak low and do not raise your voice, or you area dead man. I have the revolver ready; see here. Now, be warned!’ ‘‘He unfastened the gag. ‘Now,’ he said, ‘explain. Why have you followed and dogged me? Are you a government spy ? ‘‘ ‘Before heaven, no!’ I exclaimed. “¢ ‘Swear it!’ ‘«<J] doswear it. Iam not in the serv- ice of any government or body what- ever, and, if lama spy, it is only for the advantage of those upon whom ] am, paid to keep a watch.’ ‘© ‘Qh, then, you are paid to dog me, and by whom?’ « «It is a secret!’ I faltered. ** ‘Sneak, by whom?’ he repeated. “ <The secret is not my own,’ I be- can, but the count furiously bade me sneak, or I should swim, and I was obliged toadmit that her excellence the Countess Landrinof, beiig most anxious and unhappy by reason of her husband’s prolonged and unexplained absence, had employed me to find him and, if possible, to bring him back to St. Petersburg; at all events, to see him and report upon his condition. “The count laughed aloud.” (My poor mother shuddered as I read this part of the letter and cried quietly as she listened. ) ‘« “Why, what does she think ails me? he said. ‘« «T cannot tell you,’ I replied. ‘* ‘Speak, you fool!’ he repeated an- grily. ‘What does she think ails me? She thinks I am mad; is that it?’ ‘I admitted that this was the case, and I admitted it in fear and trem- bling, for I, too, was assured that the poor count was not in full possession of his reason, sq different was his conduct Large Auction Sale cceeeaaaeneeaaeonctaiarae REE ee wen SENN iL) UAlbau W ibaa weer ‘) one Whom all Russia knows and re ects ‘*Mad to have left my beloved wife's te. thongh only for a short holids ys ‘ond. eh? he laughed. ‘Why, mar ive What queer things these wome: Can't a man take a little holida, ya trip abroad without drag : whole establishment with him ides.

You look surprised. It is odd that so good and universally respected a man as I should have enemies. They are men, you must understand, who are jealous of my position, and—-er—of my favor with the czar. These men are building up a plot against my reputa- tion. I tell you this in strict confidence. I am here in order to escape the worry of their persecutions if only for awhile I—I—you will laugh over it, as I do now—I took you for their spy. You will forgive me? My anger was excus- able. Imagine, my friend, these men will not allow a man to write to his own wife, but must needs intercept the letters. Is.it not too bad? You will for- give me? Come, we will return and sup together.’ ‘¢ ‘Willingly,’ Isaid, and in my heart I thanked heaven and all the saints in the calendar that the count’s anger was cver and he was now in a quiet and reasonable frame of mind. ‘We left the park and walked up Ox- ford street, and we supped .together as he had suggested. During this meal the count bade me explain how I had found him. ‘**The credit of it is not my own, ex- cellence,’ I said, ‘but belongs to the young Englishman, Mr. Morris-—Percy. as they call him.’ ‘¢*Who?’ gid the count, looking be- wildered. ‘TL repeated Mr. Percy’s name. ‘He who met you one day, soon after your arrival. in Oxford street,’ I added, ‘and greeted you in Russian.’ ‘“*Oh, ah, yes!’ said the count. ‘I reniember, of course. He knows me well | and recognized me. Is it not so?’ ‘¢ ‘He has so often staid at your house, both in town and country.’ I said. ‘that he could scarcely meet you with- out recognition. Nevertheless, neither your wife nor your son was quite pre- pared to believe that he could have seen yourself here in London until this same Percy cleverly took your photo and sent over a copy.’ ‘The count started and looked angry at this.

Did it ever occur to you that most railroad men die of kidney disease? Such is the fact, however, and the disease is known among railroaders as ‘‘ railroad kidney.” The fi'st and most marked symptom isa weak, fame and aching back. You may think at first that you are ory tired; but as this trouble in- creases day by day, kidney disease, with all its terrors, is fast claiming you as a victim. Mr. Geo. Cummings, for over 20 years en- ineer on the Grand Trunk running between await and Allandale, says: ‘‘ The constant duty with my work gave me excessive pains in fay back, racking my kidneys. I tried several remedies until I was recommended by my fire- man, Mr. Dave Conley, to try Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills. Two boxes have com- pletely cured me and I feel to-day a better man than ever, I recommend them to all my friends.” Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills, one pill a dose, 25c. a box, at all dealers, or Ecmanson, Bates & Co., Toronto.
