On the Old Wall.

Miss Parker ran ner nand over her
hair and looked out Of the window over
the sea rolling and glistening beneath
the moon until it was hidden in the
shadow of the old city wall. She was
satisfied with herself, and SO naturally
with everything else.
OFF in the old part Of the city, some
one was playing guitar and singing a
low Spanish song. 1t seemed to her as
il st. Augustine was for a moment
transformed into the old city of a hun
bred years ago. The music and perfume
Of the flowers and the water, all set her
dreaming of the time when the helm eted
guard paced the wall singing perhaps
that very song.
Her maid touched her upon the arm
and whispered that it was time to go.
Already the uncertain notes OF the
musicians tuning their instruments
came through the halls to her. The
dining room of the Ponce de Lion had
been transformed into ball room for it
was the evening of ST. Valentines day
and the best and largest dance Of the
winter season.
Just before entering the room Howard
Stafford met Miss Parker and her
mother and they went in together. The
engag; ment Of the young man and the
girl had been announced some months
before. Her mother liked him very
much. and his family was excellent. and
Miss Parker herself liked him even more
than any other man she had known, but
beyond that there was nothing for or
against the arrangement made by the
mothers. and she would settle no definite
date for the wedding day. She was
satisfied, she said,at least.wit the pres
ent. The future was to be considered
when it became present.
This night every thing was so pleasant,
and Howard was so considerat, and
thoughtful that she took more pleasureiu
his company than she ever hal before.
And when be was dancing with others
she watched him, for he was a splendid
dancer, and the girls who knew him
were always pleased to waltz with him.
When at last her mother told her they
must go it was with regret she went
away. 1t was still early but her mother
was very strict in stopping before it
grew late; and when she reached her
room she threw open the wide French
window and drew little chair to it and
sat and watched and thought.
Suddenly, the train of her thoughts
was broken by men ia king below her.
She could see two forms standing on the
broad walk and their words came up TO
her clear and distinct.
Sir, you will have to go, after what
has been sa:d" reached her ears in
angry tones, and she recognized the
voice OF Harry Stafford.
Il am only too willing" was the reply
equally as passionate. bat she did MT
recognize the speaker.
Where and when?' said Stafford
haughtily,
AT once and on the old wall down
there. 1t is as light as day" Henry,
went on the speaker, apparently to
another person, "bring down my case
and hen leave u.s."
The two speakers walked slowly down
towards the sea line not a hundred
yards away, and third man whom she
nae not seen before, made his way to
the hotel entrance.

HEART DISEASE.
so1GE FACTS REGARDING THE
RAPID INCREASE OF
HEART TROUBLE.
DO Not BIO Alarmed but Look for tn.
Cause. p" -

Do Not BIO Alarmed but Look for the
Cause.
Heart troubles, at least among
Americans, are certainly increasing
and while this may be largely due to
70 the excitement and worry of Amer
lean business life, it is more often the
result Of weak stomschs, of poor di-
gestion.
Real, organic heart disease is in
durable; but not one case in a humid
red OF heart trouble, Ii organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by branch
es OF the same great nerves, the Sym
pathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart is
affected by that form of poor diges-
ton, which causes gas and fermenta-
ton from half digested food; there is
feeling Of oppression and heaviness
in the chest caused by pressure of the
dlstended stomach on the heart and
lungs, interfering with their action;
hence arises palpitation and short
breath
Poor digestion also poisons the
blood, makes it thin and watery,
which irritates and weakens the
] heart.
The most sensible treatment for
heart troubles>is to improve the di-
gestion and to insure the prompt as
similation of food.
This can best be done by the regu.
Lar use after meals, of some safe,
pleasant and effective digestive pre-
paration, like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, which may be found at most
drug stores and which contain vaiu-
able, harmless digestive elements. in
a pleasant, convenient form.
1t ID safe to say that the regular,
persistent use of Stuartts Dyspepsia
Tablets at meal time will cure any
form Of stomach trouble, except can
