a few words," was the answer which MT. Blodger gave, as he handed over his card.
 "You can not be too brief to suit me-" was the almost rude response. MT. Blodger seated himself opposite to Mir. Emeriok and comm enced at once.
 ''Some few months ago a woman who was selling newspapers over in Brook lyn thought she recognized you as her long-lost husband"
 readily answered: "Yes, but what has that to do with your visit?"
 Livery thing" was the reply. This woman has recently fallen heir to a large amount of valuable property in Amiens, France, and 1t has become nec- essary that she should go to that place at once in order to prevent her raven ous relations from robbing her of it"
 Mir. Emerick was very much interest," ed now, but he had been in peculiar po- sitions too often to betray his interest to his listener, so he asked with apparent unconcern:
 Why does she not go to France at once, then?"
 "There is only one reason, and that is that she swears she will see you first" |" answered Mir. Blodger.
 And you, I presume, wish me to grant the woman an interview" asked MT. Emerick.
 Precisely" was the answer.
 "Very we'll, then," replied Mir. Elmer ick, whose manner was now very much changed. Tell her to come to my rooms tonight, and I will see her alone, you understand" he answered.
 ''It shall be as you say. Second floor, Grantham Flats" said MT. Blodger as he read the address which Mir. Emericl1 had written on his card. "She will not have far to go, but" here he hesitated a moment, and then continued: Would it not be better for her son to ac- company herP"
 "No. will sec her alone or not at all," was the reply.
 As MT. Blodger rode back up town he could not help thinking that there was something very unlike merchant and | gentleman in Mir Emerick's manner. Upon reaching his home, however, he sent a note to Harlem at once inform. ing Mrs. Bregy of the result of his call. Then he went over to Mrs Delaro's and told her all about 1t That night was | the dtrtiest and most disagreeable night which New York had seen for some time. It had rained necessarily for nearly twelve hours and the streets were running with water. When Mrs. | Bregy alighted from the street-car she had several blocks to walk before she reached the Grantham Flats, and heI mud-bedraggled skirts gave her such a torlorn appearance that the porter thought she must have made mistake until she mentioned MT. Emerick's name, when he at once led her to the elevator and took her up to that gen tleman's rooms.
 | As she entered Mir. Emerick rose from his easy chair and approached her. He had had ample time to make his mind up how to act and was fully prepared.
 Be seated, madam" he said, in ar ordinary polite manner.
 She did not seat herself, but stood and looked at him with pleading eyes as she said; "Alphonse, do you not know me? Emilie-your wife2"
 He returned the gaze; then putting his hand to his forehead in @ dramatic manner, he said:
 "If SO, how changedV" He spoke tho words in an undertone, as if to make thu woman believe he did not intend her tt

In recent number of an American
magazine, Mr.. Jefferson tells pathetic

ed there solitary, not seeing the face of
human being for months at a time.
But he had conquered the habit which
was making a beast of him.
Perhaps among the readers of this
story there is some young man upon
whom the love of liquor has taken hold.
He is ashamed, terrified, anxious to
shake it off, but he feels it's grasp in the
weakness of his will to resist. What
shall he do?
in the first place, recognize the fact
that this is practical, physical evil,
and calmly bring practical, physical
remedies to bear on it. First seek help
from higher than human source, and
then use the rational remedies which
He has provided for this disease of the
body and soul. If alcoholism is hered-
itary in his family or if his immediate
ancestors were moderate drinkers his
danger is greater and the need of
prompt action more imminent He
should put himself in the care of an in
telligent physician who will be able
somewhat to appease the intense crav-
ing for etimulenc. $3.50
But he must himself counteract the
cause which drove him to drink. If it
is desire for fun" and excitement let
him find some amusements different
from those in which he has been indulg.
Ing which will drive it from his mind.
If he began to tipple in secret, let
him shun Solitude and find cheerful.
entertaining society. If on the other
hand he drinks only when with certain
associates, let him give them up at
once and wholly.
Occupation, healthy and absorbing for
mind and body, is the surest safeguard
for him. For after all. 1.-THE way to
stop drinking is to stop drinking," and
