GENTLEMEN: I commenced taking P,
P. P, Lippman's Great Remedy, last
Fall, for Erysipelas My face was com
pletely covered with the disease; l took
short course of P. P. P, and it soon
disappeared. This Spring became

other course, and l am now in good
condition. consider P. P. P. one of
the best blood preparations on the

cares to try P. P. P. will not be disap-
pointed in its results, and /, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it.

There it was; she, the woman, was
so helpless. And shortly after this the
party broke up.
A month later the artist one evening
received a letter from Isbel, and, to his
utter surprise and joy. oddly mixed
with pain, she wished him to paint her
portrait. Would he please call on her
at IL the next day?
OF course he would go; but how go
through the ordeal without self-be-
trayal?
Isbel had to strive with herself much
harder for the ordeal she had at length
with an infinite courage resolved to
face. Therefore was 1t she had named
an hour free from all visitors, and
when her aunt, Mrs. Brandon, would
still be in her own apartment. One of
the two, she saw, must cross tho Rubi-

she, the heiress, must, whatsoever the

When she was told he was in the
drawing-room- almost the actual
moment had arrived-her heart sank,
and at the very door she had to pause
a minute to pull herself together; then
she went in. How the mans dark eyes
lighted up! How unconsciously close
was the clasp of his hand on hers! If
she had had one fleeting doubt of his
love that second must have dispelled it.

ing. the agents of the vessel accepted
profitable charter for Australia. The
gold fields had just been discovered in
that part Of the world, and the chance
was not to be missed. l fretted at the
delay, but duty was before me, and
that stood first. We set sail for the
Australian coast. Our voyage was a
disastrous one. When within two days
sail of our destination, our ship, The
Blue Jacket, was overtaken by violent
storm. which so disabled her that we
had to take to our boats. 1t happened
strangely enough that another vessel,
named The Blue Jacket, was caught in
this storm, and went down with all
hands. We were more fortunate. Only
one man was lost-our skipper-so that
the command devolved upon me. We
were picked up and taken into Mel
bourne, and there l reported myself.
My great anxiety now was to get home
as soon as possible, but temptation
was thrown in my way which | could
not resist. l was offered the command
of vessel belonging to the owners Of
The Blue Jacket. This vessel was to
trade first to China, and there take in
cargo for London. To successfully ac-
complish this to the satisfaction OF my
owners would be as good as the making
of me. No more partings from Mabel,
then, thought I, as joyfully-though
with natural rue at the delay-accept-
ed the offer. wrote home to Mabel the
double good news of my escape from
shipwrick and my promotion. You will
understand that during all this time

from her; such are the exigencies Of a

violently in those days, that 1t was no
easy task to get a crew together for a
humdrum country like Great Britain.
However, we managed to muster lot

engaged rooms. The Christmas bells
rang out auguries Of happy future,
and set words to them-words which
formed the sweetest melody that ever
fell on a mans soul. Mabel looked
inexpressibly fair and beautiful, and,
in the light Of our happiness, my old
mother appeared to grow young again.
Never was a man so blessed as l.
God bless this day." / said, as we
three sat together, 1 with an arm
around each God bless this day for
ever and ever"
We sat in the dusk, talking OF the
past and the future; and during a lull
my mother sung a few lines of "Yo,
heave, no" my fathers tavorite song
and broke down in the middle, over
come by remembrance Of the past. A
few moments afterward Mabel with
a tender nesting toward me, sung, in
a low, sweet voice, song l had never
heard before. One verse especially
pleased me, and she sung 1t again at
my desire, as wished to fix the words
in my mind:
Though friends be Gliding,
And waves dividing,
In faith abiding,
I'll still be true;
"And I'll pray for thee,
On the stormy ocean,
In deep devotion,
That's what Til do"
A long, long silence followed; and
when we awoke from the dream into
which we had fallen, we spoke again,
almost in whispers, of the bright prom
ise which life held out for us.

gone"
More than one, my darling? How
many, them"

and love-"

EMPTY PARIS HOTELS.

Experiencing Hard Times Because tina
South Bound Travellers Now Go
Through without Stopping.
The great hotels Of Paris, especially
those that receive the bulk of their
trade from foreigners, are emptier just
now than at any time since the war.
The modern express trains to the south
of Italy, Monaco and the Riviera, car
rying through sleeping cars, have for
years made the journey so pleasantly
and so quickly that few travellers from
England have found it necessary to
stop over at the French capital. But
since Berlin and Vienna entered into
direct express communications with
these parts, booking travellers from St
Petersburg and Warsaw as we'll, the
French capital gets beautifully left all
around. Scandinavian, Russian, Aus
trian and German sojourners are to-
day as rare in Paris as Englishmen.
Only Belgians and the Dutch remain
true to their old love, but these good
people cannot fill the big caravansar-
les in the Champs Elysee and neigh
borhood. Not hotel keepers only, but
all the great cafes and restaurants, the
modistes, art dealers and store keepers
generally suffer in consequence of this
absence of visitors. 1t has been figured
out that at least twenty-five great res
| taurants have closed their doors since
1873.

to this attraction, she was beautiful,

monstrated the aunt with whom she
lived. "You are nearly "a, my dear"
II don't care, auntle," laughed the
young lady; IAN old maid is as good
as anything-a thousand times better
than having a husband one doesn't care
for. I'm not In love, dear, and so mean
to keep my freedom"
That was said-end said truly then
some weeks before she came on this
visit to Halcombe Grange and there
met the artist, Eric Errington; but
could she have said the same as truly
now, when the visit was drawing to a
close? The lips might, perhaps; the
heart was another matter entirely,
and she knew It, She was no tyro OF
girl in her teens, but woman who
lived in the world and neither could
nor would deceive herself; she knew
that she loved Errington, and he loved
her, despite his proud reticence and
silence. What woman could not read
between the lines? What man could
possibly at all times completely guard
every look and tone and touch when
thrown so constantly each day with
the loved one? He is unconscious how
or when his secret is betrayed to that
one.
But no one save Isbel Brandon her.

neither held aloof nor markedly sought

among the party who did so, and one

lngly to Eric:

your chance with the beautiful heiress
and win a fortune, and Herewith a
speedy rise to fame?"
Thank you, not l." said the artist,
with laugh and shrug to cover the
deeper feelings stirred. II have no in
tention Of being ticketed fortune hun
ter by the world or the fair lady her
self. Even poor devil of an artist
may keep his pride and honor unfair

the chameleon, little reptile belong
ing to the great lizard family, and in
size the antipode Of the alligator, its

the Washington Star. The incident
now relate came under my personal OBJ
servation, and demonstrates that the
chameleon is susceptible of education
and can be ranked with animals classed
much higher in the scale of intellec-
tual development. Miss Henrietta
Keene, little lady of II years, living
in Philadelphia, was presented with
two Florida chameleons, and she at
once began instructing and educating
her pets. BY continued gentleness and
kindness she won their confidence, and
at her call they would raise their heads,
listen, and then come running quickly.
Soon they responded to their names
Brinton and Baby-and nodded their
little heads knowingly. She then
taught them to stand up on their hind
legs and put their little paws together
and stand in the attitude of prayer,
looking solemn and closing their eyes;
at signal they would quickly PROSTATE
themselves, roll over on their backs
and pretend to be dead, lying without
motion, until told to rise and embrace
which they would do with every sign
of Joy and pleasure.

that the new woman movement, repre-
