sadness at the thought of leaving my
darling girl.

cannot tell you what she was to me.
She was more than my life-she was
my soul. In all the world there was
but one star for me-Mabel. Through
the light of her love the fair earth be-
came fairer, and the gloomiest day was
filled with sunshine.
1t happened at this time that Mabels
mother was summoned suddenly from
her home. An only sister, who had
lived hundred miles away, was dy-
ing, and called her to her bedside. The
summons was so sudden that | did not

morning to Mabel's house, found her
alone, and she told me how her mother

asked.

hurried and agitated-"
She scarcely knew how to finish the
sentence, so placed my fingers on her
lips to save her from awkwardness.
She felt more deeply than ! any lack
of affection in her mother toward me.

She darts from the room and brings
in Mabel, and then there is a scene.
The mother wants to have all the talk
to herself, and 1 am too much cast
down to stop her; but Mabel does.
Amos" she says, sis it true that you
do not love me?"
l know by that question that her
mother has been working against me
secretly. But out of regard for Mabel's
peace OF mind at home. l repress the
hot words that are rushing to my
tongue. l answer simply that l love
her devotedly, and that / would pour
out my hearts blood in her service. l
make no reference to the wicked
tongue that has maligned me when my
back was turned. Then Mabel tells
her mother-before my face, bless her!
she tells her-that there's no man in
the world she loves like me, and that
she has given her word, and means to
abide by it. Her mothers face grows
white and sly and she does not
reply to Mabels outburst. So, her
breath not being employed to fan the
fire, 1t cools down, and thatv storm is
over.
Well, l am a little disturbed at the
difference in our ages, which l never
thought Of before Mabers mother spoke
of it. Truly, am old enough to be her
father, though as for my hair getting
white, that's a fable-there isn't gray
hair in my head. Still, the twenty and
odd years between me and her are
like twenty and odd little imps mock
ing and pricking me. How | should
like to poison some of them, and bury
them out of all knowledge!
Meeting Mr.. bruce at this point of my
musings, he looks at me as though he
would be glad of the opportunity of
killing not only my twenty and odd
years, but all my other years as well.
l am too happy to return his scowl,
and he makes an angry motion and
passes on.

Dublin society has lately been start

On the afternoon of this day a lady

for Mrs. Wynne. "She," was the reply,

quite overcome and on recovering her

she still believed to be the bishop, had
vanished. She Immediately went and

to well-known Irish Protestant digni-

natural appearances. He said there
was no doubt that she had been ac-
corded an interview with the spirit OF
the departed bishop.
The story was extensively circulated
in Dublin society, and was told to a
clergyman when visiting the family of
a well-known judge. why" said the
astonished cleric, 81 am the bishops

that the bishop was also dead. The

THE KAVA-KAvA SHRUB ana prOOdply was
piper Aethysttcum1 used for centuries
by the natives before its extraordinary
properties became known to civilization
through Christian missionaries. In
this respect it resembles the discovery
of quinine from the peruvian bark,

Jesuit missionaries in South America,
and by them brought to civilized man,
It is a wonderful discovery, with rec

nine is in malaria. We have the strong
est testimony of many ministers of the
gospel, we'll known doctors and business
men cured by Alkavis, when all other
remedies had failed.
In The New York Hleekly World o, Sept 10th,
the testimony of Rev. w. b. Moore. d: D.. oil
Washington, ID. C.. was given, describing his
years OF suffering from Kidney disease and
Rheumatism. and his rapid cure by Alkavis.
Rev. Thomas Smith, the Methodist minister at
Golden, Illinois, passed nearly one hundred
Rev. John II. Watson, ofSunset Texas, minister
of the gospel of thirty years service was struck
down at his post of duty by Kidney disease.
After lowering between life and death for two
months, and eli his doctors having failed, he
took Alkavis, and was completely restored to
health and strength and is fulfilling his duties as
minister oil the gospel. MI. X. -. WOOD, n prom
inent attorney of Lowell, Indiana, was cured OF
Rheumatism, Kidney and Bladder disease of ten
years standing, by Alkavis. Mr.. Wood describes
himself as being in constant misery, often com
PEELED TO rise ten times during the night on
account of weakness OF the bladder. He was
treated by all his home physicians without the
least benefit and finally completely cured in a
few weeks by Alkavs. The testimony is I'M
doubted and really wonderful. Mrs. James
Young, of Kent, Ohio writes that she had tried
six doctors in vain, that she was about to give
up in despair when she found Alkavis and was
promptly cured of kidney disease and restored
to health. Many other ladies also testify to the
wonderful curative powers of Alkavis in the
various disorders peculiar to womanhood.
So far the Church Kidney Cure Com
pany, No. 427 Fourth Avenue, New
York, are the only importers of this
new remedy, and they are so anxious to
prove its value that for the sake of intro
duction they will send free treatment
of Alkavis prepaid by mail to every
reader of this paper who is Sufferer
from any form of Kidney or Bladder
disorder, Bright's Disease, Rheuma-
tism, Dropsy, Gravel, Pain in Back,

due to improper action of the Kidneys
