prIsed vanishing ticket duly arrived,
but Lacy was unable to make use of it,
in spite of Mary's nursing. His at
tacks of headache had lntely become
more frequent and more severe, and
on the eventful day he was incapable
of movement. II occurred to Mary
that he ought TO see doctor. The
doctor cross examined him closely, and

man.
" But can't Il must live !"
"If you don't rest, you will be blind

in a maze. With great difficulty he
gathered sufficient courage to tell Mary.
She remained silent little.

"Well, you will have the money for

which it bore to Miss Norris, who,

uncle, Sir James Norris, who was an

ris had died about year ago, intes-
tate that it had been discovered that
the deceased left no relations except
his niece, and that the latter had mar

and subsequently died leaving daugh-
ter; that Mr.. Ffollitt had hitherto
been unable to trace the issue of this
marriage; and, finally, that he was

NStickersv ON Silver Cnins.


"Stickers" are giving the govern
ment lot of bother. They are circu-
lar bits of paper with advertisements
on thc face and mucilage on the back.
Made by the lick of the tongue to ad-
here to the reverse of silver dollar,
one of these little plasters is just big
enough to fit inside of the milled rim.
They have been coming widely into
use in the West and South. Every
time n merchant receives cartwheel
dollar in the way of business he slnps
sticker upon it, which reads, "Take
me back to Buggs' cheap furniture
house, whore you get the biggest value
for cash" or, "Return me to Snnggs,
the drygoods man, and will fetch
bargain"
This ingenious idea is copyrighted
by Columbus man, who prints and
supplies the gummed stickers to mer-
chants nj so much n Thousand. His

the country, suggest In shopkeepers
had better make haste to avail them
selves of this novel method of adver-
tising before law is passed forbidding
1t. Meanwhile dollars with stickcrs on
them are flowing into the treasury from
all over the United States Bankers
and business houses are writing every
day to the department, begging it to
abate the nuisance, which in the West
has already spread nlnrmingly.
Many people are unwilling to accept
the sticker dollars, and 80 the circula-
tion of Uncle Sam coins is interfered
with. Most banks will not take them,
because the treasury has issued a noti-
iicGtion to the effect that il vii not
accept or redeem them. 1t holds the
ground that they are defnced and nre
not legal tender on that account. 1t
is true that they might be restored to
their original perfection by removing
the stickers, but Secretary Carlisle has
no appropriation for scraping them of.
The mucilage employed is of so excel
Lat quality that twelve hours soak
ing does not remove the paper from
the silver.
Furthermore, the covering mp of one
side of the coin renders it greatly
more difficult to discover whether the
latter is counterfeit or not Chief

had made great fame and some money
as novelist, Edmund Shelton to wit,
had selected him to illustrate mn edition

read, and had offered very liberal
terms. Here was the opportunity for
which Richard Lacy had been waiting
ever since he came to London, youth
os seventeen, more than ten years
ago.
He was a struggling artist, who
painted pictures (which never sold in
the daytime, and earned his bread and
cheese Mt night by designing for the
stationary trade, and such black-and
white ms he could gc: hold of. He
managed to make about $3.50. year,
one-third of which went for the rent of
the gaunt, bare studio in which he
worked, and the little bedroom at-
tached in which he slept. The pur-
chase of materials exhausted another
third, and on the remaining $3.50. he
lived, but did not grow fat.
Unless he could in some way arrest
the attention of the public he would
probably remain all his life an ill paid
designer. True, by some freak of
fortune, one of his pictures had once
been exhibited at the Royal Academy.
But it was "skied," not single critic
noticed it, and it was produced in none
ofthe Illustrated catalogues. Even now
he was in debt FOR its very gorgeous
frame.
But surely fate smiled ut last. An
illustrator of celebrated novel he
could not fail TO be talked about. He
must Mt once consider what models he
would require for the work. If he

A Atimid rat tat at the door interrupted

A tall young girl stood before him.
She was not exactly beautiful, but with

the fine poise of her head and her

and she hesitated.
"Good morning. he said, at length.
"Model?"
She nodded gravely and handed him

to indicate that she had never been in

rather attracted by her erect bearing
and simple air. Models are usually in

"Well, l may be wanting model
shortly" Lacy said; "may ask what
your terms are!"
She stated them. They were ridicu-
lously low.
"Perhaps you could call tomorrow,
and l could then say whether you would

grave little nod she was gone.

to make an admirable model for Clair
