Thear Business booming.

Probably no one thinghas caused such
general revival of trade at j. w.
Conn's Drug Store as his giving away
to their customers of so many free trial
bottles of DIR. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption. Their trade is simply
enormous in this very valuable article
from the fact that it always cures and
never disappoints. Coughs, Colds,
Asthma. Bronchitis, Group. and all
throat and lung diseases quickly cured
You can test 1t before buying by getting

Kept within the Law.

The action Of that New Jersey bank
in dumping $4,000 in silver on its floor
in payment of its checks in the hands
of a rival institution brings up the ques.
ton of legal tenders. Gold has always
been legal tender In the United States.
With a brief interval previous to the
passage of the Bland act silver dollars
have been also. Greenbacks are, but
gold and silver certificates are not, ex.
cept on customs, taxes and public dues.
National bank notes are not legal ten
ders, and can and have often been re.
fused in payment of debt. Subsidiary
coin is legal tender only in limited
quantities.
A gentleman went to the stamp Win
dow Of the postothce in II neighboring
city and called for 100 ore cent stamps,
rendering in payment 100 one cent
pieces.
Those are not legal tender in any
such quantities., growled the stamp
clerk: 4 refuse to accept Them
You do, ch . answered the gentle
man. We'll, give me one stamp, at
the same time showing out a penny
The stamp was forthcoming.
Now, give Inc stamp He got it.
Another stamp.
Nov another
See here, said the clerk, how many
stamps do you want? You are keep
ing twenty people Waiting
oh, always keep within the Jaw
responded the gentleman. Another
stamp, please. Pennies are not legal
tender III large amounts. Another
stamp.
And he showed off his pennies and
purchased stamps, one at time, till ne
got his hundred. But the clerk was
cured. Pennies are legal tender at his
window in barrel lots.

Ny DEAR Mr.. DAYTON :--Hereby |

Faithfully yours, Pierre Jorlette.
Well the secret was out
My pretty girl was the infamous

They breathe upon the air;

How fondly ! remember
The time we culled them there,
And meath the shady naples

How there in bliss we tarricd
Until the set of sun,
The time that you were twenty,
And was twenty.onc.
1t may have been the flowers,
Or n look benign and free,
That babe me whisper softly
How dear you are to me:

We've had our summers, darling,
The fields of life are brown.
We've travlcd up the hillside,

THE SECRET OUT.

Will meet YOU there. Look sharp.
CATHCART.
This was the wording Of the telegram
received one wet, ugly night last
December. was sitting in my little
snugsery back of my Office, before a
blazing CRATE, with my feet in slippers
and my body in Il warm dressing room.
| had mug Of hot punch and cold
mince pie on the table before me, along
with an uncut novel and genuine
Havana, with which intended to re-
gale myself presently. And although
1 had IL very strong anxiety to secure
Jorlette, it must be confessed that | was
altogether too comfortably situated to
relish going out into the cold that dis
mally dirty night.
THIS telegram was from my chief,
who, l might as we'll say, was detec-
tive, and | had followed that thankless
and precarlous business for several
years. People considered me very
successful in working up difficult cases,
but l WIS never quite satisfied with
myself. l wonder if any man ever is ?
This same Jorlette had given us a
great deal of trouble. We had never
had so keenly cunning spirit to cope
with. Strategy was matched with
strategy, diplomacy with diplomacy !;
and scores of times, when we were sure
of him. he had slipped from under our
fingers like Il flea and lett us wondering
how he managed it.
Perhaps it would be we'll to explain
that Pierre Jorlatte was Il murderer,
upon whose head was set price Of
$4,000 by the crown. A Frenchman
a. d nobleman by birth, gentleman by
education, he had when very young
married a beautiful English girl. with
whom he passed two years of unalloyed
happiness. At the end Of that time
some fearful shadow came between them
-none knew of what nature-and the
inhuman husband stabbed his wife to
the heart! Her confidential maid
W messed the deed and attempted to
save the life OF her mistress, but Jor-
lette fell upon her with savage ftrocity
and left the two corpses lying together
side by side.
These are the facts as briefly as | can
state them to you. OF course there
were many minor circumstances not
worth recording, as they have little
bearing upon the short story l am
writing.
1t seemed from thus telegram that
Jurlette was to be on the 1870 train. L
wondered how Cathcart had got his IN
