"7zere's something behind it,"

"Ihere's something behind it,"
That's what you think, perhaps,
when you read that the proprietors
Of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy offer
$500 reward for an incurable case
Of Catarrh. Rather unusual, you
think, to find the makers of medi-
cine trying to prove that they be-
lieve in it. "There must be some
thing back of It'll"
But it's a plain, square offer, made
in good faith. The only thing that's
back Of it is the Remedy. 1t cures
Catarrh in the Head. To its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing
properties, the worst cases yield,
no matter how bad or Of how long
standing. 1t has record that
soes back for IS years. It doesn't
simply relieve # perfectly and
permanently cares. With Rem
edy like this, the proprietors can
make such an offer and mean it.
To be sure there's risk in it, but
it's so very small that they are
willing 10 take it.
You've "never heard Of anything
like this offer ?" True enough.
But then you've never heard Of
anything like DR.. Sage's Remedy.

Whatever had been Royals plans about
Madge Brandon originally, his conduct was
entirely altered by his guilt of the hunch-
backs death.
he did not know OF the presence OF any
other woman in the house, save Madge and
the old bag, who acted as servant. He had
not seen the girls face since his partner had
flung the cloak over her before he had had
time to turn his head, and be had been too
excited to notice the difference in hight and
figure, while the tones of the voice which
gave the oath we're broken by sobs, and
muffied by the thick folds OF the cloak.
Clearly to him then Madge was the only
witness Of bis crime, except his partner,
who hardly counted, and If he made her
his wife, she could give no evidence against
him.
In this state Of affairs he made q dscov
cry, learning from the bag that she still re-
tanned her eyesight.
The villain was surprised, but remem-
bered that the Rat had expressed his belief
that the liquid was too old to take serious
effect. Even then he must, Of course, have
discovered the truth, bus for his partners
complete silence on the subject Of his child.
As IL was be saw there was no safety for
him except 20 make her his wife.
With all speed he made the necessary ar
rangemsnts. That Madge should aoquiesce
so readily was a fresh surprise TO him.
which but for his excitement might have
shown him the real state CT affairs. AS it
was, he thought he had not counted too
much on her love aud pride, which would
make her bind herself ~ a murderer, rather
than return 10 her father.
