course no one would think of looking
in missus's room for a thief Mary
Lynch was nowhere to be found. No
one suspected me Of knowing any,
thing of about her escape. So master
concluded that when Mary was put in
the library they had made mistake,
and had not locked her in as they sup
posed. The search was kept up for
two days, and then was given up.
1t was three nights after that, when
missus says to me- You must come
to my dressing room at four o'clock
tomorrow morning.
You may be sure / did not sleep
much that night. 1t was about as un-
happy night as | ever passed in my
life.
At the time appointed I knocked at
her door. She opened it softly, put
ting her finger on her lip as sign for
me to make no noise, as the master
was asleep in the next room. I went
in lightly. By the table Mary Lynch
was standing. She wore plain dress
and bonnet of missus sand to see
her, you would take your oath that
she was a lady born.
Robert" whispered missus, "you
are to take Mary to the turnpike, and
when the coach comes you must see
her safe off.
And good bye, Mary" she said
turning to Mary. Remember that [
trust to your promises. May God give
you grace to keep them"
Mary took both of missus's hands
in her own, that were just as small and
as pretty, though not so white. She
kissed them over and over again, and
her tears fell on them. / was more
than glad to see the girl SO grateful.
1t looked well for her good intentions
for the future. Then she followed me
down stairs. Out into the summer
dawn we went, neither speaking a
word--nor did we speak after we reach
ed the turnpike. My heart was too
full, and she, poor girl, was too cast
down to say anything.

valuable Cough Balsam, while expert
menting for his own health. 1t cured
Cramp in the Stomach for him which had

The almost daily testimony from various
parts of the country encourage us 70 De-
lieve there is no disease caused by Dlsor-

The Great Female Remedy for
Irregularities.
- HAVE TESTED THESE DROPS
= in my own practice, over ten years,
and do not hesitate to say that nothing
has been developed by medical research
that acts so powerfully, positively, and
harmlesSly, in cases OF female irreguIarity,
as does this medicine. In all recent cases
it never fails, while thousands VINO have
been long sufferers are indebted TO it for
the boon of health to-day.
Although so powerful and positive, they
are perfectly harmless, and may be used at
all times, except when specially forbidden
in the instructions.
To all who suffer from any irregnlarity,
painful, difficult, excessive, offensive, or
INSTRUCTED menstruation, Leucorrhoea, or
the train of diseases that follow, would
say, try a bottle of DR.. Lyons French
periodical Drops Being fluid prepara-
ton, their action is more direct and posi-
tive than any pills or powders. Explicit

They may be obtained of nearly every
