CHAPTER xxi.

The stormy interview with Went
worth disturbed the usual serenity OF
Mr.. Longworth's temper. He went
home earlier than was customary with
him that night, and the more he
thought over the attack, the more un-
justifiable 1t seemed. He wondered
what his nephew had been at, and tried
10 remember what Wentworth had
charged against him. He could not rec
ollect, the angrier portions of the in
terview having, as it were, blotted the
charges from his mind. There re-
mained, however, bitter resentment
against Wentworth. Mr.. Longwor,
searched his conscience to see If he
could be in the least to blame, but he
found nothing in the recollection OF
his dealings with the young men to
justify him in feeling at oil response
BILE for the disaster that had overtaken
them. He read his favorite evening
paper with less than his usual in
terest, for every now and then the
episode in his Office would crop up in
his mind. Finally he said sharply:
"Edith?"
"Yes, father" answered his daugh-
ter.
"You remember n person named
Wentworth whom you had here the
evening William went away?"
"Yes, father"
"Very well. Never invite him to this
house again."
What has he been doing?" asked the
young woman, in rather tremulous
voice.
Il desire you never to ask anyone
connected with him, that man Kenyon,
for instance" continued her father, ig-
noring her question.
II thought" she answered, "that
Mr.. Kenyon was not in this country at
present"
"He Is not, but he will be back again,
] suppose. AT any rate / wish to have
nothing more to do with those people.
You understand that?"
"Yes, father"
Mr.. Iongworth went on with his
reading. Edith saw that her father
was greatly disturbed, and she much
desired to know what the reason was,

have no doubt when he thinks over the
matter, he will be thoroughly ashamed
of himself"
well, I hope sol"
Then give him the chance of being
ashamed of himself, and take no fur
ther steps in the matter"
Edith, very shortly afterward, went
to her own room, and there, clasping
her hands behind her, she walked up
and down, thinking, with q very
troubled heart, on what she had heard.
Her view Of the matter was very differ
ent from that of her father. She felt
certain something wrong had been done
by her cousin. For long time she had
distrusted his supposed friendship for
the two young men, and now she pic
tured to herself John Kenyon in the
wilds of Canada, helpless and despond-
ent because Of the great wrong that had
been done him. 1t was far into the night
when she retired, and it was early next
morning when she arose. Her father
was bright and cheerful at breakfast,
and had evidently forgotten all about
the unpleasant incident of the day be-
fore. A good nights sleep had erased
1t from his memory. Edith was glad Of
this, she did not mention the subject.
After he had gone to the city the young
woman prepared to follow him. She
did not take her carriage, but hailed a
hanson and gave the driver the number
of Wentworth's Offices. That young
man was evidently somewhat surprised
to see her. He had been trying to write
to Kenyon some account Of his inter
view with old Mr.. Longworth, and,
somehow, after he had finished, he
thought John Kenyon would not at all
approve Of his zeal, so had just torn the
letter up,
"Take this chair" he said, wheeling
an armchair into position. 1T is the
only comfortable one we have in the
ROOM"
Comfort does not matter" said Miss
Longworth; II came to see you about
the mica mine. What has my cousin
done?"
"How do you know he has done any
thing?"
"That does not matter. know.
Tell me as quickly as you can what he
has DONE"

he said, ito a young lady about one Of
her relatives"
"Never mind that. Tell me-"

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fre-
ouent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that
the kidneys and bladder are out OF
order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-R Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish in relieving pain
in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passag-
es. 1t corrects inability to hold urine
and scalding pain in passing it, or
bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that un-
pleasant necessity of being compelled
to get up many times during the night
to urinate. The mild and the extraor-
dinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distress
Ing cases. If you need medicine you
should have the best. Sold by drug
gists price fifty cents and one dollar.

BALTIMORE HAS A LEPER

BALTIMORE. Md. May 29.-There is a
female Ieper at the Johns Hopkins Hospi-
tai this city.
She was taken to the institution several
weeks ago. suffering from what was sup
posed to be a skin eruption, but after
careful diagnosis Of her case by the physi-
clans at the hospital 1t was discovered that
the woman was victim of the terrible
disease of leprosy.
Wnen the truth of the case dawned on
The physicians the unfortunatae woman
was isolated from the rest of the patients,
and in that condition she will be kept at
the hospital until arrangements can be
made with the health authorities to re-
move her elsewhere.
Last night the woman was exhibited at
the hospital before number of, promi-
nent physicians who attended meeting
OF the Clinical Society of Maryland, which
was held in the assembly room of the

tention. md furnished the physicians an
excellent opportunity to study the nature

she went to live in Allegheny City. and re-
Gently returned to this city. 1t was about
that time she noticed few small eruptions
on various parts of her body. Gradually
they grew III size. and the physicians whom
she visited treated her for number of all
mepts. She was given medicine internally
and applications of various kinds were
used on the eruptions. but they were of nc
avail. and they continued to increase.
The woman is married, and. there was
no abatement in the disease, her husband
prevailed upon her to go to the Johns Hop.
kiIs Hospital. She did so, and it was sew.
eral days before the physicians discovered
the fact that leper was in their midst.
