The story was at once denied by hei
friends, who say she has suffered simply
from nervous prostration, is in no need
of pecuniary aid, and is on the way to
speedy recovery.
Opium victims are usually hopeless
helpless slaves, mind weakened, lacking
energy for any effort toward recovery

timely graves.
A peculiar feature is that victims

remedy in the world which has any
decided power over diseases of the kid.

habit cannot be cured until these organs

1t is not claimed that there is anything

strength and tone without which any
attempt to throw off the habit would

THE END.
THROUGH THE FOREST. }
The Old and Young Danced ALI Night
Our Hardy Ancestors.

Old men live in the past.
Perhaps it would be better for the
young men of the present, If they lived
a little bit more in the past, apd drew
less on the future.
The log cabins of primitive times would
seem very cheerless habitations to the
people who live in the finely constructed,
furance heated mansions of to-day. But
our grandparents took great deal of
comfort in these rude homes. f.
They were rugged and healthy. The
men had stalwart and hardy frames, and
the women were free from the modern
ailments that make the sex of to-day
practically helpless slaves to hired for
eign help.
White-haired grand-sires frequently
took their life partners and on horseback
rode score of miles through the forests
to enjoy the lively pleasures of frontier
ball, danced till daylight, rode home
again in the early morning, then put in
. good days work.
Middle-aged folks of to-day couldn't
stand that sort Of a racket.
To these mud-chinked log cabins
doctors visits were rarity. the in
habitants lived to rugged and green old
age.
Sometimes these log cabin old-timers
were taken i'll. They were not proof
against all the exposures to which they
were subjected. They found the effective
remedies for these common ailments In
the roots and herbs which grew in the
neighboring forests and fields. They
had learned that nature has q cure for
avery i'll. These potent remedies assisted
their sturdy frames to quickly throw OF
disease and left no poison in the system.
The unpleasant feature Of modern
practice with mineral medicines is the
Injurious after effect on the system. May
not modern physical deseneracy be due
to this feature? ~ @A
A drug-saturated system Is not in .
natural, consequently not In Q healthy,
state. If any OF the main organs are
clogged with traces Of the mineral poisons
used to drive out particular disease,
the whole machinery Of life is deranged
and early decay Of natural powers is the
inevitable result.
There can be no question that remedies
from the laboratory OF nature are the
best. II they are IS efdczcious, they
have the advantage Of lscvino no after
st;ng.
Their efficacy, If properly compounded,
and the proper remedy applied to the
proper disease, will not be doubted. The
experience of ages proves it..
Their disuse has come about principally
through the rapid congregation OF people
in cities and villages, rendering these
natural remedies difficult to obtain
Progressive business enterprise has
lately led to putting these old time re-
medies within reach of all classes.
The proprietors of Warmers safe
remedies, in the faith that the people o.
| to-day would be benefited by using the

and the miserable truths that underaid it.
But she comprehended him instantly, and sat
hopelessly silent
"Ef you'll take my advice" continued Jack
placing his watch and chair under his pillow
and quietly unloosing his cravat, you'll quit
this yer forlin', marry that chap and hand
over to him the money and the money maxim
that's killin' you. He'll get rid of it soon
enough. l don't say this because expect to
git it; for when he's got that much Of a raise
he'll make break for Frisco, and lose it to
some first-class sport there. / don't say,
neither, that you mayn't be in luck enough
to reform him. don't say, neither-and it's
derned sight more likely!-that you mayn't
be luckier yet, and he'll up and die afore he
gifts rid of your money. But do say you'll
make him happy noo; and, ez reckon
you're about ez badly stuck after that chap
ez l ever saw any woman, you won't be
hurtin' your own feelin's either"
The blood left Pegs face as she looked up.
"But that's ,rhy can't give him the money
and he won't marry me without it."
Mr.. Hamlin's hand dropped from the last
button of his waistcoat. "Can't-give-him
-the-money9" he repeated, slowly.
"No"
"Whyr
"Because-because lore him."
Mr.. Hamlin rebuttoned his waistcoat and
sat down patiently on the bed. Peg arose
and awlswardly drew the portmanteau q
little nearer to him. E-.
"When Jim Byways left me this yer
property" she began, looking cautiously
around, "he left it to me on conditions; not
conditions ez waz in his ,oritten will, but
conditions ez waz spoken. A promise I
made him in this very room, Mr. Hamlin-
this very room, and on that very bed you're
sittin' on, in which he died"

questioned indicated nothing. But he shook
her hand warmly, and the next moment was
gone.
He found the room with no difficulty.
faint cough from within, and querulous
protest. answered his knock. Mr.. Hamlin
entered without further ceremony. sick
ening smell of drugs, a palpable flavor OF
stale dissipation, and the wasted figure of
Jack Folinsbee, half dressed, extended upon
the bed, greeted him. Mr.. Hamlin was for
an instant startled. There were hollow cir
cles round the sick mans eyes; there was
palsy in his trembling limbs; there was disso-
luton in his feverish breath.
@What's upr he asked huskily and nerv-
ously.
"I am, and want you to get up too"
II can't, Jack I'm regularly done up"
He reached his shalin hand toward glass
half filed with suspicious, pungent smelling
liquid; but Mr.. Hamlin stayed it.
"Do you want to get back that 81, 900 you
lostl"
eyes"
"Wen, get up, and marry that woman
down stairs"
Tolinsbee laughed half Historically, half
sardonically.
"She won't give 1t to me-"
"No; bus will"
"Your
"Yes"
Folinsbee, with an attempt at q reckless
laugh, rose, trembling and with difficulty. to
his swollen feet. Hanlin eyed him narrow,
ly, and then babe him lie down again. "To-
morrow viii dc. j" he said, and then" -
sIf dontn -
~If you DON'T" responded HaInlin, "why,
I'll just wade in and cut you outw
But on the morrow Mr.. Hamlin was spared
that possible act of disloyalty; for, In tho
night, the already hesitating spirit of Mr..
Jack Folinsbee took fight on the wings OF
the southeast storm. When or how 1t hap
pened, NOBODY knew. Whether this last ex-
element, and the near prospect Of matri-
mony, or whether an overdose Of anodyne
had hastened his end, was never known. I
only know that when they came to awaken
him the next morning the best that was left
of him-a face still beautiful and
boy like-looked up coldly at the
fearful ewes of Peg Moffat. "It
serves me right, it's Judgment she said in
low whisper to Jack Hamlin; "for God
knew that I'd broken my word, and willed
all my property to him."
She did not long survive him. Whether
Mr. Hamlin ever clothed with action the sug-
gestion indicated in his speech to the lamented
Jack that night Is not of record. He was
always her friend, and on her demise became
her executor. But the bulk of her property
was left to distant relation Of handsome
Jack Folinsbee, and so passed out of the con-
troll Of Red Dog forever.
THE END.
