The man at first glance was disap-
pointing. Tom had fancied him gray
and dignifed, his eyes heavy with the
disillusion of life, but instead he found
him only little older than himself,
small and pompous in bearing. His
spare face was sallow and ended in a
pointed black beard. His eyes were
hollow and of that dense blackness that
resists light. A sardonic fippancy had
curled his upper lip to one side.
As he languidly drew one hand from
the pocket Of the great, shaggy coat en-
veloping him like a blanket, Tom no
ticed it was pale and forceless as the
hand of delicate woman, the tips of
the fingers senna brown from the use of
tobacco.
"Tve been looking for you. wanted
q word with you," he said, tone and
glance connoisseurlike. "Is it true The
Worlds Way is your first play?'
"The first that has not died almost at
birth"
As Tom spoke he felt the sensitive
pleasure all who first came in contact
with Delatole experienced in some de-
gree. The restful assurance Of his man
ner, the flashes of his shrewd eyes, the
musical, drawing voice, were all insinu-
atingly attractive to Tom and filed him
with admiration. By comparison he felt
himself too brusque, too impetuous, al
most an artless savage.
"You interest me-" said Delatole. II

The act had commenced, and he scarce
ly paused to hear Toms murmured ac-
ceptance. 1t was foregone conclusion
that a new author would not dream Of
refusing Anthony Delatole.
When the curtain fell, the excited
audience rose and cheered. They want

lastly the author Virginia gave little

the hoarse. irregular cry. They wanted

After Physicians Failed, Hoods
SarsapdrilIa Perfectly Cured.
Great mental agony is endured by
parents who see their children suffering
from diseases caused by impure blood, and
for which there seems no cure. This is
turned to JOY when Hoods Sarsaparilla is
resorted to, for it expels the foul humors
from the blood, and restores the dis
eased skin to fresh, healthy brightness.
Read the following from grateful parents:
"To G. l. Hood s. Co., Lowell, Mass:
"We think Hoods Sarsaparilla is the most
valuable medicine on the market for blood and
skin diseases. Our two children suffered terri
bly, with the
Worst Form Of Eczema
for two years. We had three physicians in
that time. but neither of them succeeded in
curing them or even in giving them a little
relief. At last we tried Hoods Sarsaparilla
and in a month both children were per-
fectiy cured. We recommend
Hoods SarsapariIIa
as standard family medicine, and would not
be without it." Mr.. and Mrs. M. M. SoLLER,
