OSSOLI CIRCLE.

Monday in the Ossoli Circle was
given to Macaulay and Theirs.
Miss Anderson and Mrs. Gerald
Stuart were the essayists for the
afternoon-Miss FAM and Miss
Lambright leading in the discus
sion following.
The appointment of leaders in
conversation seems to serve most
admirably its intended purpose,
creating more personal interest
and provoking more general dis
cussiOn.
The principal business feature
was the consideration of an invita-
tion-or proposal or request-from
the board of managers that Ossoli
furnish entertainment for one
evening during the festival soon
to be and known as the Bazaar of
the Months. Just the nature of
entertainment desired is not
known.
With her usual suavity Ossoli
received the proposition, not count
ing it an affront, though it scarcely
COMFORTS with her wonted dignity
to pose at ten cents a look, even
for sweet charity's'' sake,
Whether she will array herself
in royal garments and receive in
state, or metaphorically roll up
her sleeves and in work a-day
attire grasp some problem civic or
humane, real or fanciful, and
wrestle nightly in the sight of all
men, time and the executive COM
mittee are to decide. She is equal
to either. Notice of her decisive
action will be given in due time
TUESDAY MORNING MUSICAL CLUB.
The feature of the Tuesday
Morning Musical Clubs meeting
this week was the appearance of
Miss Rosalie Gaut for the first
time before this club. In the alb
sence of Miss Mae Armstrong, who
has gone abroad, Miss Gaut gave
the piano number of the program

Paderewski. For so young mu-
stefan she demonstrated great tai,
ent, and those who heard her were
more than pleased with her rendi,
ton of so difficult number.
Mrs. J. H. McWilliams and Mrs
". C. Sanders, who had assign
ments on the program, were unable
to attend. This necessitated the
omission of the two vocal sole
selections.

morning, November %. Member:

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, But Safe and Eff
fectual Cure For It.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incUrable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat-
ing sensation after eating, accOmpan-
led sometimes with sour or watery rls-
ings. a formation of gases. causing
pressure on the heart and lungs, and
difficult breathing: headaches, tickle
/ appetite, nervousness and general
piayed-out, langUid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, and, if the inter-
Tor of the stomach could be seen, it
would show a Shiny, inflamed condi-
ton.
The cure for this common and obsti-
nate trouble is found in treatment
which causes the food to be readily.
thoroughly digested before it has time
to ferment and irritate the delicate
mucous surfaces of the stomach. To
secure a prompt and healthy digestion
is the one necessary thing to do,
and when normal digestion is secured
the catarrhal condition Will have dis
appeared.
According TO DR.. HarlansOn, the SAT-
est and best treatment is to use, after
each meal, a tablet. composed of Di-
astase, Aseptic Pepsin, little NuX,
Golden Seal and fruit acids. These tab
lets can now be found at all drug stores
under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tables, and, not being a patent medi-
cine, can be used with perfect safety
and assurance that healthy appetite
and thorough digestion Will follow their
regular use after meals.
Mr.. n. J. BOoher Of 2z10 Dearborn
street. Chicago, His, writes: "Catarrh
is a local condition resulting from a
neglected cold in the head, whereby the
lining membrane Of the nose becomes
infiamed, and the poisonous discharge
therefrom passing backward into the
throat reaches the stomach, thus pro-
ducing catarrh of the stomach. Medi-
cal authorities prescribed for me for
three years for catarrh OF stomach
without cure, but today 1 am the hap
piest of men. after using only one box
Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. l can
not find appropriate words to express
my good feeling. l have found flesh,
appetite and sound rest from their USE
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the SAT
est preparation as we'll as the simplest
and most convenient remedy for any
form of indigestion, catarrh of ston-
ach, biliousness, sour stomach, heart
burn and bloating after meals.

saw that you were influenced by her at
tractiaps.''
You did not do justice to my selfish
ness, father. l did mean TO marry her,
| but l have given up living solely for
myself, and she could never help me to
| live for others. Father, Amabel Page
must not remain in this house TO cause
division between you and me-
I have already intimated 10 her the
| desirability Of her quitting home where
she is no longer respected, the old gen
tleman declared. She leaves on the
1O:45 train. Her conduct this morning at
the house of Mrs. Webb-Who perhaps
you do not know was most cruelty and
foully murdered last night-was such as
to cause comment and make her an IN
! desirable adjunct TO any gentleman S
family"
Frederick paled. Something in these
words had caused him a great shock.
Mr.. Sutherland was fond enough TO
believe that il was the news OF TINS
| extraordinary woman's death. But his
sons words, as soon as he could find
any, showed that his mind was running
on Amabel, whom he perhaps had found
it difficult 10 connect even i'll the re-
hottest way with crime
She at this place Of death? How
could that be? Who would take young
girl there?"
The father, experiencing, perhaps,
more compassion for this soon-to-b e-dis-
illusionized lover, than he thought it in
cumbent upon him to show, answered
the unhappy truth:
She went; she was not taken. No che,
not even myself, could keep her back
after she had heard that a murder had
been committed in the town. She even
intruded into the house; and when or
dered out of the room Of death took up
her stand in the yard in front, where
she remained until she had the opportu-
nifty of pointing out to us a stain of
blood on the grass which might other
wise have escaped our attention
"Impossibler' Frederick's eye was
staring; he looked like a man struck
dumb by surprise or fear. 'Amabel do
this? You are hooking me, sir, or l
may be dreaming, which may the good
God grant"
His father, who had not looked for so
much emotion, eyed his son in surprise,
which rapidly changed to alarm as the
young man faltered and fell back
against the wall.
You are i'll. Frederick; you are really
ILL., Let me call down Mrs. Harcourt.
But no, 1 cannot summon her. She is
this girls aunt
Frederick made an effort and stood
up.
DO not call anybody" he entreated
Il expect to suffer some in casting this
fascinating girl out of my heart. But
l will conquer the weakness ultimately;
indeed I will. AS for her interests in
Mrs. Webb's death-how low his voice
sank and how he trembled-'She may
have been better friends with her than
we had any reason 20 suppose. l can
think of no other motive for her con-
duct Admiration for Mrs. Webb and
horror
Breakfast is served, gentlemen"
cried a thrilling voice behind them
Amabel Page stood smiling in the door
way.

CHATTER VII.

Frederick Sutherland was a man of
finer mental balance than he himself
perhaps had ever realized. After the
first few moments of Stupefaction fol-
lowing the astounding alternative
which had been given him, he broke
out with the last sentence she probably
expected to hear.
What do you hope from a marriage
with me, that to attain your wishes
you thus sacrifice every womanly in
stinct?"
She met him on his own ground.
What do l hope?" She actually
glowed with the force of her secret de-
sire. Can you ask poor girl like me,
born in tenement house. but with
tastes and ambitions such as are usual
~ only given to those who can crafty
them? l want to be the rich Mr.. Suth-
erland's daughter; acknowledged or
unacknowledged, the wife of one who
can enter any house in Boston as an
equal. With a position like that l can
rise TO anything. ! feel that | have the
natural power and aptitude. l have
felt it since I was small child"
And for that he began.
And for that" she broke in, Il am
quite willing to overlook any dark spot
on your record. Confident that you will
never repeat the risk of last night / am
ready to share the burden of your Sc
cret through lie. IL you treat me well,
l am sure l can make it light for you"
With a quick flush and an increase of
elf-assertion. she had probably not an
ticipated, he faced her with a desperate
resolution that showed how handsome
he could be if his soul once got control
Of his body.
Woman" he cried, they were right;
you are little less than a devil
Did she regard it as a compliment?
Her smile would seem TO say So
a devil that understands men," she
answered, with that slow dip of her
dimples that made her smile so dam
gerous. You will not hesitate long
over this matter; week, perhaps
Il shall not hesitate at all. Seeing
you as you are, makes my course easy
You will never share any burden with
me as my wife
Still she was not abashed.
1T is a pity She whispered. 1T
would have saved you such unneces-
sary struggle. But a week is not long
to wait. l am certain of you then. This
day week at u o'clock. Frederick
He seized her by the arm, and, lost to
everything but his rage, shook her
with a desperate hand.

den horror showing itself in his face,
Notwithstanding his efforts TO conceal
it.
Il mean it SO much.' she assured

He was pointing to a rare flower that

grass as DR.. Talbot had requested. The
stranger took his place at the gate to-
ward which the coroner and Mr.. Spther-
land were now advancing, with an air
which showed his great anxiety to
speak with them. He saw that one of
the five musicians whom we saw secret
" entering the aforementioned gentle
mans house after the departure of the
last servant.
As the coroner paused before him he
spoke. DIR. Talbot" said he. dropping
his eyes, which were apt to betray his
thoughts too plainly, you have often
promised that you would give me a
job if any matter came up where nice
detective work was wanted. Don't you
think the time has come to remember
me?"
You Sweetwater? I'm afraid the
affair is too deep for an Inexperienced
mans first effort. I shall have to send
to Boston for an expert. Another time.
Sweetwater, when the complications
are less serious"
The young fellow, with a face white
as milk, was turning away.
But you'll let me stay around
here?" he pleaded. pausing and giving
the other an imploring look.
20, yes" answered the gOod-natured
coroner 'Fenton viii have work

Thank you, returned the other, his
face suddenly losing its aspect of acute
disappointment Now I shall see where

A man, recently left a widower,
when arranging for his late wife's

the bereaved widower insisted and the
carving was put in hand The correct

for when the stone was finished at the
