PARSNIP COMPLEXION.

A majority of the ills affecting peo-
pie today can be traced to kidney trou-
BILE. 1t pervades all classes of society,
in all climates, regardless of age, sex or
condition.
The sallow, colorless-looking people
you often meet are afflicted with ''kid-
ney complexion" Their kidneys are
turning to parsnip color, so is their
complexion. They may suffer from in
digestion, bloating, sleeplessness, uric
acid, gravel, dropsy, rheumatism, ca
tarrh of the bladder, or irregular heart.
You may depend upon it, the cause is
weak, unhealthy kidneys.
Women as well men as are made mis-
cradle with kidney and bladder trouble
and both need the same remedy. DIR.
Kilmer's Swamp-ROot, the great kid
ney, liver and bladder remedy will build
up and strengthen weak and unhealthy
kidneys, purify the diseased, kidney
poisoned blood, clear the complexion
and soon help the sufferer to better
health.
The mild and extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. 1t stands
the highest for its wonderful cures of the
most distressing cases, such as weak
kidneys, catarrh of the bladder, gravel,
rheumatism and Bright's Disease, which
is the worst form of kidney trouble.
At druggists, fifty cent and dollar sizes.

such deftness that the seam was hardly
visible.
And the needle and thread that did
it were manipulated by the dainty fin
gers of Miss Eldridge.
Lieutenant Oakman suddenly gripped
the sleeve fiercely to tear it asunder.
Then his face flushed with shame at the
unworthy thought. Had he possessed
an extra garment he would have donned
it and treasured the mended coat to the
end of his life.
He gathered his few personal belong
ings and placed them in his pocket
Then the revolver was examined, in
cluding his small supply of cartridges.
He felt no pain in his wounded arm,
though it had not perfectly healed. For
all purposes it was as strong and as
serviceable as ever. Then he softly
blew out the candle and again sat down
by the window.
Listening carefully, he could hear no
sound of voices below stairs. Indeed il
was understood when he babe his
friends good night that it was the in
tention of all to retire. The stairs in
the other division of the house had been
used, which accounted for his not hear
ing any footsteps
The question he asked himself was
whether he should descend and leave by
a lower door or drop from the window.
If Captain Trenholm suspected any
thing Of the kind, he would doubtless
be on the watch, in which event the
window was preferable. The distance
was so moderate that by hanging from
the sill the fall would hardly jar him.
He rose to his feet and looked out.
The round, full moon was high in the
sky, with few ragged clouds drifting
past, but the building itself was wrap
ped in shadow. The stiffness was pro-
found. A low, hollow murmur seemed
i to be brooding in the air, like the faint

but dared not trust himself to utter one
of them. His voice, his looks, his man

would be worse than hundred deaths.
She was still leaning slightly forward,
plying her diminutive spade, but she
now stopped, sat upright and looked
toward him.

course, is to be regretted. But we do
not think it is sound conclusion in the

their wholesale slaughter is an exceed

A NOTE OF WARNING.
''No, but I wonder.
sWhat my warrant is for my pledge?
Know then, my enemy, that we have
hidden a few things beyond the reach
Of the marauders. My favorite pony
has been concealed for months in the
woods, where he can be found only by

me to express my gratitude
"Then oblige me by not hunting for
the words. You will need a guide, and
there is the real trouble" she said
thoughtfully, ''for there is no extra
horse for him. Suppose I let Rastus

He sighed, for there was much he
wished to say, but could it interest her ?
He rose to his feet and walked by her
side across the lawn to the porch in
front of the mansion. Both were silent.
He was ON the point of making a COM
monplace remark when she started
with the exclamation:
"Why, what surprised
A tall, bearded man in the faded uni
form of a Confederate captain came

miss in his arms, he warmly embraced
and kissed her. The faces of both
glowed with delight, and for briei
minute they remained oblivious of the

moaning of the distant sea, and which
has been compared to the "voice of 81
lence'' Amid the loneliness he did not
see the twinkle of point CT light from
any dwelling of the neighborhood. 1t
was as if he stood alone in the midst of
u primeval solitude.
Like the veteran soldier who has de-
cided upon his line of action, the lieu
tenant did not hesitate. He felt deep
humiliation in leaving that hospitable
home in so stealthy fashion. 1t seemed
an ungrateful return for all the kind
nesses received, and he had debated
with himself the question of placing
note on his stand for Mrs. Eldridge, but
what should he writer He could make
no explanation without drawing suspi-
cion to the means by which he had been
warned and that was not to be thought
II.
"No," he muttered. "They must
think what they choose. Perhaps the
day may come when 1 can tell them
something, but at present everything
must wait.
Sinewy and active, he readily let
himself out of the window, and when
he hung suspended for a minute by his
two hands he knew his feet were only
brief distance from the ground. Then
he let go and struck so lightly that the
jar was hardly felt.
He was now among the trees, whose
branches despite the lateness of the sea-
son still held enough leaves to surround
him with gloom, through which. the
moonbeams penetrated only at widely
separated intervals. Resting his hand
, upon the pistol at his hip, he peered
| around with the utmost intensity OF
vision, and while doing so both eye and
ear brought him startling knowledge.
A door on the other side Of the house
was opened and closed. The sound was
slight, but in the profound stiffness he
heard it too distinctly to be mistaken.
''It is the captain, thought Oakman.
"He is on the watch and does not mean
| that shall elude him. 1t looks as II
there must be fight"
The testimony of the eye came mo-
ment later. Perhaps 90 feet away and
somewhat to the left something moved.
The lieutenant happened not to be look
ing directly at the spot, but the shadowy
disturbance in his field of vision left nc
doubt that it was a man with the corol-
larry that the officer had an enemy both

1t was on the tongue Of Lieutenant
Oakman to ask who the mischief Cap

should be intruded into their converse
ton. The information was like the grip
of icy fingers on his throat. but for very
shame he mastered himself.

he resumed his seat, and the conversa-
tion went on. Mrs. Eldridge and her
daughter beamed with pleasure, while
the captain was entertaining in the
highest degree.
Oakman Joined in the jest and
smiles, but it was all forced, for he
plainly saw the captain reach out and
take the willing hand of the young lady
and fondle it. And it was not once but
many times that this audacious thing
occurred right under his own eyes.
More shocking than all, the mother
observed the shameful proceeding and
gave no evidence of being offended by
its manifest improperly.
Captain Trenholm would not listen
to the proposition that their guest
should take the horse of Miss Eldridge.
Indeed there was no necessity for it,
since he had fine animal of his own,
which was placed at the ieutenant's
disposal, and since SO much faith was
reposed in the captains letter of intro
duction, as it may be termed, it was
agreed that Lieutenant Oakman should
take his departure on the morrow al
daylight.
