THE DwARF'S
LITTLE BROTHER.
GIRLS ADVENTURE IN MEXICAN TOWN.

china plate, Clipped and cracked.
There was d look of intense agony on
her old face, and her wee hands SHOOK
as she drew her treasure forth from
under her rebozo: The plate was im-
possible, and Constance, breaking
that fact very gently to the little
dwarf; was astonished to see the. tears
gather and fall over her sRriveled
cheeks.
"For two days, senorita, I have not
dared unlock that door," and she
nodded toward the mean portal where
the eyes had shone and the fingers
protruded restlessly. "'Little brother
has nothing to eat, except the few
tortillas the poor around here could
give, and many of these go hungry
from the suns coming up until the
suns going down"
Constance sent her servant and
Rosita to the plaza for some cooked
food, and; while she waited, she talked
in the doorways with Pepita and Lola
ind Juana: They told her how Rosita
worked and starved for her brother.
ssHow old is he?" asked Constance.
''Quien sabe?'' they said.
SIS he child or is he big enough
to work for her?" she asked; impa-
tiently.
"Ai! he is grandote, but also he is
loco, un maniatico: See, that is Jose
now who glares from the hole IN the
door"

that rapt attention we all give to tales

The house the brother and sister

The house the brother and sister
occupied had been Senior Lopez's, but
was presented to Dick, together
with mine worth millions,
several black-eyed girls, and
what other trihing property Don
Felipe owned. However, Dick con-
tinued to pay the rent regularly and
gazed on the girls FROM afar. The
hanging-lamp was lighted in the
zaguan; and when the mozo unclaimed
the great double doors, flood of
melody and fragrance rushed out to
greet them from the birds and flowers
in the dim patio. Dick, in smoking
jacket, lounged out from the sala
to insist that Tony, old boy, should
take tea With them. Which he did.
That was tile first difference be-
tween the brother and sister. Dick
adored Tony, and every night, they
pumped out the mine or rode to
hounds over the sala floor: But
Constance detested him, and, con-
trarB to her Usual reticence; said SO:
She tramped around the disre liable
and filthy streets twice as mucL as be-
fore, for she knew it annoyed him.
Sometimes she would see him follow
ing, and she resented his espionage.
''Why don't you like Tony?" Dick
would ask. "You know my theory,
Connie, that sporty man like Dysart
makes the best husband. "
"Oh, Dickl who is talking about
husbands? I think that man
who is utterly doggy aud horsey and
takes Browning to be authority on
pink-eye or glanders is a very poor
companion: To quote your dear
Tony we don't trot in the same
classp"
Dick gave d contemptuous snort:
This was one day at luncheon; and
Constance, instead of the good cry she
pined for, took walk. She had not
seen Rosita for some time, and she
turned her steps toward what DIR.
Dysart called "those cut-throat dens."
She had never seen the street so de-
serted. All were taking siesta, even
the dogs. As she reached the sharp
corner, she heard thin little shrek
full of appeal. She recognized Rosita's
voice, and ran with her criada at her
side into the low, open doorway she
had before SO shudderingly avoided.
There, swapping his teeth and roll
Ing his bloodshot eyes, was Rosita's
''little brother" tied with strong ropes
to an iron pin in the wall--but his
arms were free, and he stood there, a
giant in size. He had secured the
key and had almost pulled the staple
from the wall; but Rosita was clinging
to his arm and calling for help. To
and fro he swung her as wolf might
O rabbit.
He had the key in his black, cruel
hands and he brought it down on her

young man dressed carelessly in q
tweed suit and wearing a wideawaGe
hat. He was standing in the light OF
one of the windows, talking to an
other man, somewhat his senior, whom
he had just met. Caussdiere caught
a portion of their conversation.
"And hoo lang haze We been in Par

"All the summer" replied the 9TH
er. 81 came here to study and paint,
and / have been doing very well. How

"Brawly, brawly. Where are you
staying?"
Caussidiere did not catch the reply,
and the two men moved away with
the crowd; but he had recognized, at a
glance, in the younger of the inter-
locutors, an old friend-John Suther-
land.
"Diable!" he muttered. what has
brought him to Paris? l must take
care that he and Marjorie do not
meet"
He rose, paid for his refreshment,
and walked away. 1t was now s
o'clock. Hailing a fiacre, he jumped
in, and ordered the eoachman to
drive to the theater du Chatelet.
Alighting at the door, Caussidiere
strolled into the vestibule, and paid for
a seat in one of the balcony boxes. He
found the vast place thronged from
floor to ceiling to witness the per-
Torrance of fairy spectacle, then in
it's Tooth night, the Sept Files du Di-
able" founded on some fanciful east
ern story. 1t was a tawdry piece, with
innumerable ballets, professions, pa
geants, varied with certain scenes OF
horse-piay, in which a corpulent low
comedian, great popular favorite, was
conspicuous. Caussidiere was charmed
concentrating his admiring eyes par
ticularly on one black-eyed, thickly-
painted lady, who personated fairy
prince and sang risky" songs, with
topical illusions and dancing accom-
paniments, in a very high shrill voice
to the great rapture of the assembled
Parisians. At the end of the third
act Caussidiere lett his seat and
strolled round to the back of the thea
ter.

A GOOD THING
For Women to Remember

That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham
they are communicating with woman
"a woman whose experience in treat
ing womans ills is greater than that of
any living physician-male or female.
A woman can talk freely to woman
when it is revolving to relate her pri-
vate troubles to man-beSides, a man
does not understand-simply because
he is man.
Many women suffer in silence and
drift along from bad to worse, know
ing full well that they should have inn
mediate assistance, but natural mod
esty impels them to shrink from eX-
posing themselves to the questions and
probable examinations of even their
family physician. 1t is unnecessary.
Without money or price you can con-
suit a woman, whose knowledge from
actual experience is greater than any
local ply stefan living.
The following invitation is freely of
fered; accept it in the same spirit.
Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited to freely
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women
only, thus has been established the
eternal confidence between Mrs. Pink
ham and the women of America which
has never been broken and has induced
more than 100, 900 sufferers to write
her for advice during the last four
months. Out of the vast volume of
experience which she has to draw
from, it is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your case. She asks nothing
in return except your goodwill, and
her advice has relieved thousands.
Surely any woman, rich or poor, is
very foolish if she does not take adj
vantage of this generous offer of assist

Here he found many of the perform

center of the floor. Dressed in tur-

ed by a group of ladies in all kinds OF
scanty costumes, was the obese low
comedan-as loud voiced. low-fore-
headed a satyr of a man as could be
found in the theatrical profession, even
in Paris.
AS Caussidiere appeared, the actor
greeted him by name with a loud
laugh.
"Welcome, m IN enfant, welcome" he

are approaching, yet behold-we sur

The ladies now turned to Caussidiere,
who greeted them by their Christian
names-Blanche, Rose. Ada, Adele,

them well. but, as he talked to them.

MERIT MEANS MONEY MADE.

You cannot advertise money out of peo-
Plies pockets all the time you may do it now
and then but If you don't give them some
thing of absolute merit in return, advertis-
ing will never prove successful. The kind
of advertising that pays is advertising a
good thing. AS it has the merit people will
use it again and again. Never has it been
better illustrated than in the great success
of Cascarets, candy cathartic, that we have
been lately advertising in this paper All
Druggists call Cascarets reporters, that is,
people buy them, like them and buy them
again and recommend them TO their friends.
Cascarets are guaranteed to cure constipa-
