CHAPTER 1.
The scene opens in the Morgue, New York,
when the body of handsome young man has
just been brought in, and where It lies under
the dripping Of the iced water, which falls upon
it to arrest the progress of decomposition. The
man who attends to guard the dead did not
observe a slim female figure, which seemed to
arise out of the earth, 30 silently and suddenly
did it stand there. She was bending over one
OF the FIVE marble slabs, on which lay the dead
body Of splendid young man-he could not
have been more than %.
"Who are you ?" said the attendant, suddenly
becoming aware of the girls presence.
"I am Liz" she said "and that is my hus-
band lying therew
"DJ you wish him sent home ?" said the
man.
Heavens-what use2 have not cent TO
bury him !"
"Come now you had better go home. It's
getting late"
She glued her forehead TO the glass again. standing
there otioness until the officer not urgently put his
hand on her arm and drew her away,

Home! never had home came up on the
streets-I shall always live on the streets George
promised TO take Of me-he paid for my little
but George Is gone On, oh, oh !"
Two minutes later, one of the hospital surgeons-a
very great surge indeed, iran of auihority-ran
lightly down the steps OF the morEue and stood thought
fully looking through the glass curtain.
GLOW fortunate ~ he said TO himself =" could not
be better suited. The merest chance too !" Then,
turning TO the attendant, stand IN need Of subject

"Al right, doctor I'll be there to the minute, sir
and many thanks, My wife will make good OF this
money" 40 .
The great surgeon left the Mogue, his carriage wait

rapidly toward home.

A Danuerous Tornor

TorpoE or inactivity OF the kidneys is Sc
riQusly dangerous to those organs, since IL is
the precedent of diseases which DESTROY their
substance and endRnger life. This sluggish
ness may be overcome by stimulating ,hem,
not excessively, but moderately an effect pro-
duced by Hostetters Stomach Bitters, a gen.
eral inyigorant and Alternative, possessing
Giuretic properties of no common order. The
impetus which this admirable medicine gives
to their evacuative function counteracts any
tendency to congestion which may exist in
their tissues. Both they and their associate
organ, the bladder, are invigorated as well as
gently stimulated by the Bitters, which exerts
a biudred influence upon the stomach, liver
and bowels and by strengthening the system,
enables it to withstand malarial epidemics, to
which, when exposed it might otherwise sue
cumb.
Theological students reason that if there b.
counterfeit money, there must he genuine 30,
il there be inflels, there must also be Chris
tians. II this be true Of money and religion,
will not the same rule apply to "put up
medicines? Do not the cheap and worthless nos
trums prove that there are genuine and merl-
torious "put up " medicines? The great
popularity OF DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis-
coveIy has resulted in the manufacture Of many
shoddy Alternative and tonic remedies, but one
after another these have disappeared, the pro-
prietors having found that, no matter how
loud they advertise, success depends upon
merit. In South America, as well as in this
country, the Discovery is the standard remedy
for all scrofuous and eruptive dises ses 1t

toning up, regulating aud purifying the system.

cures the most stubborn cough or cold in half
the time required by other remedy.
Everybody knows that 30 long as there is
proud flesh in a sore or wound, it will not heal.
The obstacle is speedily removed and the flesh
reunited by Henry's Carbolc Salve, the finest
