With this triumphant assertion Brown
looked abotit the circle. Then, lowering his
voice. said: Boys, I've four of those
precious bottles left-ain't give 'em oil

the poop deck an say what l have to you,
an askin' his pardon, say we want the ad-
miral TO try the stuff in my bottles, seein'
that they cured my consumption.
This idea met with approval from all
sides. Therefore Brown walked off for an
interview with the admirals son, with no
little anxiety in his good heart as to the re-
suit of his mission. Approaching the lieu
tenant, Brown saluted, and asked for per-
mission TO state his reasons for doing so.
! This was readily granted, and Brown spoke
out
"Seeind that was once ciired of CON
sumption, lieutenant, / make bold TO ask

! sons for wishing you to use on your fathet

In few moments the lieutenant had
Browns story out, and much TO the latter's
qualification, granted a ready permission 10

his ditty box, get the bottles of medicine,
and return tD the lieutenant with them.

THANK you, sir, an God help the admiral

the ship" said Brown, as the lieutenant
turned TO enter the cabin.
There was no cessation in the storm that
evening. The gale howled through the rig
ging in wild, discordant tones; the great ship
labored through the white-capped noun
tains of water threatened TO engulph her
with each burst of their storm whipped
crests. Within the admiraps cabin the Ar
gand lights, the comfortable furniture, and
the numerous evidences of the admirals
wanderings over land and water, as displayed
in choice bric-a-brac and trimmings, gave
to the room warm, snug appearance, most
pleasing this wild night to those within. In
his stateroom lay the admiral made COM
Portable by all that loving hands and willing
hearts could suggest. BY his side sat his
son, who in quiet voice was recounting to
his father the interview with Brown, and tho
opposition met with from the doctors when
the idea of giving this new medicine was
broached.
"You were sleeping at the time, father,
and therefore missed laughable scene,
made so, in spite of your condition, by the
intense dislike displayed by the doctors for
this ew-fangled stuff this patent LIQUID
which they declared with their consent
should never be given to you. Well, l cut
the matter short by saying that would take

will do you good, n premonition filling my
heart that at last we have found the means
of arresting the burning fever and hacking
cough which have been troubling you so
much.'
The admiraps reply was cut short by n
severe spell of coughing, during which he
spat blood, and when finished sank back ex-
hausted. But the grateful look which he be-
slowed on his son was an additional assur-
ancf@pf belief III that which the admiral had
at flrst sight dubbed as possible but doubt
full means of doing him any good. But lay
ing aside his dislike for any but old-estab-
lished remedies, the admiral acquiesced in
his sons request and now, after this last
spell, admitted that the effect of the dose
had softened the dreaded severity of the
racking cough

bottles the admiral had turned the flank of

driving him off the field with power which
astounded the doctors and filled all hearts
with JOY and thankfulEess.
What was this then that had won the vic
tory for the seaman Brown, and was now
leading the admirals shattered forces to the
same grand result? When asked this ques-
ton by one of his officers on duty, i'll Mon

This is the name of the contents of that

Well might the admiral sing the praises of
that which had so unexpectedly rescued him
from fatal illness. When the ship anchored
the first commission for the admrals son to
execute was a large purchase of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, which, as the ad-
miral sadly admitted he had seen in every
port the world around and had only admired
as an evidence of the energy and enterprise
of an American who could thus place his
Golden Medical Discovery in every nook
and corner of the globe. But now he was
one more to testify TO the wonderful power
of this medicine, and certainly did SO in
