vision as sharp as saber cut.
ArmitaSe was right; he was used up
and needed rest. His hand sought
some cigars upon q small table and
then slipped back. 1t would be better
not to smoke until Tomas had brought
his coffee, Tomas of the many lies, the
sickly sweet smile and the coral tipped
pendants in Objectionable ears.
All sorts Of thoughts and half thoughts
floated through his mind, the heaviness
of the day, the knavery of the Portu-
guese agent on the Dom Pedro II rail-
way, the wish to make money faster,
the surprising words Armitage had
spoken on the road, and always, no mat
ter what his surface thought, the fierce
and living consciousness of Anne under
lying all, the ungovernable longings he
had let speak in that last letter to her,
the craving for her answer, the con-
stantly recurring waves of inconsistencies
checked by returning determinations to
be strong to the end.
1.-THE senior sleeps as if the sun had
touched him." interposed Tomas with
q glance Of murder, for he hated the

She was young, dark eyed, little too

LET your maid wait here. You will
find Sefain in this house. They say he
is sleeping"
Anne's lids sank for q moment over
her eyes as if q throe Of insuppnrtable
feeling coursed through her, which
might have been apprehension, pity or
love, and she entered the dim room.
She stood with loosely olasped hands
and looked down at Donald. Often dur
ing the travail Of the long journey SO
impulsively undertaken she had won
dered what emotions would come to her
in this moment when she faced the
struggler who needed and loved her. the
man she loved.
Donald's lids showing blue against
the broken and sunken face, the clam
miness upon the strip Of pale forehead,
the parched lips parted. the unguarded
heart crying out its distress in the fixed
expression Of sorrow and appeal, were
like so many chords around her heart
drawing her toward him. She had done
right to come to him.
A wild joy filled her as she crossed
the room to his side But though she
leaned above him, he still slept, not
knowing heaven was near. She sank ON
her knees and laid her cheek upon his
dropping hand, as she called him clearly
twice. Donald started forward, dazed.
The reality came in Anne's kiss as she
chung to him.

A large family of cats too attenuated
to frolic strolled languidly around the
paved square or sat winking their half
blind eyes in the glare. From some of
the white laborers' cottages came the
smell of pork and frying bread. Over it
all the sun famed hard.
Donald and Armitage alighted at the
factory, and from this came the low
grooming, the murmur of mixed song,
heard wherever the negro works.

OUR BEARDED
LADY.

Designing men, through alluring and cum
ningly worded advertisements, constantly
endeavor to work upon the feelings OF sick
and ailing women by inviting them ito write
to a 1e'omdn % and secure sUonsans SYM
pathy." 1t is we'll to remember that the
best sympathy is to had at home and not
from strangers, perhaps hundreds of miles
distant. The object of the sick is to get well,
and however precious sympathy may be, it
never yet cured a seriously afflicted woman.
While the sympathy of your millirer or
dressmaker might be appreciated and be
Just as beneficial, If not more so, than SYM
patty from a stranger, yet it can not effect
your cure II you are an ailing woman.
1t IS loudly proclaimed through the press
that a woman can best understand q
woman's ailments, and on this ground sick
women are invited to write to a woman"
and get the benefit of q woman's advice
The sort of understanding of her ailments"
wanted by a sick woman Is a trained medi-
cal understanding. If q woman has this
trained medical knowledge she understands
woman's ailments not as Donan, but as
physician. If she is not doctor she cannot
understand the ailments at all, and cannot
treat them successfully, because she lacks
the necessary training.
As far as known, there Is no regularly
qualified woman physician connected with
any proprietary medicine especially de-
sigueo lof Women-no one, therefore quali-
fed by learning and experience, to advise
on questions Of disease and its cure.
1t is certain that there Is no one, man or
woman, connected with any put up"
medicine for women, excepting only DR..
Pieree's Fevorite Prescription. who, like
DR.. Pierce. Is a regular graduated and quail
ned physician, and who has. like him, de-
voted more than thirty years to the special
study and treatment Of diseases of women.
For more than thirty years DR.. R. v.
