into garden of flowers, palms and
growing plants. Sid Venner, the pop
ular young lawyer of Stillville, stood
in the shadows apart from the group,
nervously pulling his mustache and
looking somewhat out of sorts. He
started and Strengthened up as man
and a woman entered the church and
came down one of the dimly-lighted
aisles. The lady-a tall, beautiful girl,
with reed-lil<e grace of movement
was in advance. AS she passed close to
Sid she recognized him and stopped.
"Oh, Mr.. Nenner, isn't it q shame 7"
she broke out, in a charmingly imPul7
sive way. 1.-THE Easter lilies ordered
from the city did not come. / am so
disappointed, and mortified, too, for all
the other ladies have furnished some
thing for the church decorations, and
promised the lilies, you know, and now
/ can do nothing at all. Mr.. Macgregor
has been searching the town for flow
ers, but can find none. Dear! dear! II
one of you gentlemen could get some
Easter lilies somehow-somewhe
would-well, I'd be eternally CRATE
full" This half-laughing, half-despair-
ing outburst was addressed both to Sid
and her stylishly-dressed escort, who
had stopped just behind her, but it
seemed to the lawyer that the appeal
was specially directed to him. His
heart was humping like trip-ham-
mer, but he spoke quite calmly:
II shall be glad to win even your graf
itude. Miss Lloyd. Twill get the lilies
for you"
"Oh, will you truly? Can yon?"
81 can and will"
"You need not trouble yourself, SIR
spoke up the other man, in a voice as
cold and cutting as steel. "lf Miss
Lloyd wants Easter lilies l will get
them for her-provided they are to be
had"
The significance of the tone and
words was not to be mistaken. There
was moment of profound silence;
then Sid Venner, with admirable self
control, said:
81 have given you my word, Miss
Lloyd. My offer has no proviso at
tached to it," He smiled audaciously
in the flushed, scowling face of Bruce
Macgregor; then bowed easily to Heller
Lloyd, as he added: "The lilies will
be here in good season, promise you
Rut to fulfill my mission, must be of
at once. Good night" He strode
down the aisle to the church door. ant

The Inoonbeams touched the cedars tall
That stood by Jesus tomb,
All family, as the candles will
That light a spacious room;
While here and there lonely star
Looked earthward through the gloom.
A hush was on the darkened land,
calm lay on the sea,
A silence fraught with meaning vague
OF miracles to be;
And loosed from midnight's failing grasp
The wandering winds went free.
And when the rock-bound sepulchre
In darkness stood alone,
With trace of moon and waning star
Across its outlines thrown,
Nor door was seen, but in its stead
ough-hewn, mighty stone.
But when the dawn-burst filled the skies
And night was changed to day,
=, flash of mystic wings was Seen
Within the morning gray,
The angel messenger who came
And rolled the stone away.

all Stomach Troubles, Nervousness, Liver and
Kidney Complaints there is none better. An

tains no narcotics, and can be given to the
most delicate woman or child with beneficial
