CHAPTER III

Impossible, my dear sir-impossi-
ble!"
1t was Captain Derwent who spoke
in that decidedly aggressive tone OF
decision, and he whom he addressed
was Don Gordon, as they strolled in
company along narrow track by the
side Of winding nullah. on their way
back to mess at the Tirah camp.
1t was nearly three weeks since the
lover had hidden Lille farewell, and
she 1t was who was under discussion
now.
Don's cheek was flushed, and his dark
eyes glowed ominously as their glance
followed the clouds of pale smoke from
the cheroot he puffed for several min
utes In proud silence.
That he had never contemplated Cap
tain Derwent's blunt refusal Of his suit
was very certain. by the easy assurance
with which he had courted and won
Lilies own consent.
You say 1t is impossible your daugh-
ter should ever be my wife?" Don
spoke at last, with painful distinct
ness.
1t was characteristic Of Don's nature
that he was rarely reused to passion:
but. once reused. 1t was deep and last
ing; and by the pallor that had re-
placed the flush upon his face 1t was
too evident he was moved to passion
now.
Perfectly impossible. my dear fel-
low. though hate telling you so. don't
you know"
Since you have told me SO much, l
should like that you will tell me more -
said Don. in that calm voice that little
betrayed the fire at his heart. May
ask why 1t is perfectly Impossible! %
MY dear SIR" exclaimed the elder
officer. somewhat sharply. III your own
common sense does not tell you my
chief reasons. then you must pardon
my being outspoken. You've said your
self you haven't rupee beyond your
pay and what your uncle, Colonel Cor
don, chooses to allow you yearly. Now
honestly. do you consider you are al
all suitable match for my little girl
who. you must remember, is now an
heiress. Had you been heir of Ga
die"
Thanks" said Don curtly. II dc
not need to be reminded of my re-
versed fortunes. and. / will confess.
should never have asked Lille tc
share my poverty. 1t is only the fac,
OF her being an heiress makes It possi-
BILE she could ever become my wife"
pom my word. sir. you're frank!"
exclaimed Captain Derwent, irritated
by what he deemed efYrontery on Don's
part. MY daughter should be hon.
ored to know that. had she been q
'tocherless lass as We say In the
north. you would have had none OF
her."
He laughed. as II to pass the matter
on as a joke: but he was genuinely
annoyed.
Ito be continued.)

trsmh,iAs girl In lingering embrace
what message shall take to tne
hth<r. little oaer-
That lore you.' she answered sim
ply. and that I only live for you both
to come back to me-"
He sealed the confession with pas
sionate kiss. and tore himself away. to
spring lightly to the saddle.
For an instant he paused on his
prancing steed with barred head. his
brown eyes bent upon her, and smile
on his moustached lips.
It'll We meet again." He spoke
softly then. as. kissing his hand to her.
he resumed his helmet and galloped
away into the moonlit night.
Till We meet again!"
She lifted her tear-dimmed eyes to
the star-spangled heavens In q mute
supplication that the Father Of all
would watch between him and her till
that day came.
All! she little knew what the inter-
val held in store.

The senate committee on commerce
has reported bill for the establish
ment Of department Of commerce and
Industries. While the multiplication OF
Offices ordinarily is not an unmixed
blessing, there is sometimes a necessi-
ty for 1t, and at other times conditions
are such as TO indicate the wisdom OF
making an experiment in that direc-
ton, though it must be admitted that
there is little hope Of abolishing an
office, however useless 1t may prove,
once 1t is created The closer the gov
ernment can be brought in contast
with industrial activity. and the more
nearly 1t can be made business enter
prise, as distinguished from political
machine. the better 1t will be as a gov
ernment.

rA. spr..a OF Co...s,ou. diseases.

The Spread Of Coatasious Diseases.
The responsibility Of those persons
who supply the public with food and
drink is not suficiently realized by the
community at large. Not long since
a number Of cases Of diphtheria broke
out In . neighborhood. The disease
was Of very severe type. and, In sew
eral instances. proved fatal after two
or three days illness. II seemed Inn
possible. At first. to trace the conta-
gion to Its source. but after q thor
ough canvass OF the vicinity II was
discovered that q dealer In milk had
In his family couple Of cases Of diph-
iberia. He pr0fessed ignorance Of the
cause Of the chlldren's sickness, and
even when assured Of liz nature.
claimed that he had no Idea that it
could be conveyed In milk. The fact
that parents do not know how chill
dren could have contracted this dis
ease often acts as q check upon any
Efforts 10 combat It, insisting that as
the little ones have not been exposed
to this malady II certainly must be
something else that ais them. When
illness Of this sort breaks out In q
family the only proper course IL to
have u investigated at once. Delays
are quite sure to be disastrous II not
fatal. and In the present condition Of
medical knowledge on this subject.
there is reasonable hope Of relief II

The most amusing feature of the
present violent crusade being conduct
ed by the press Of New York against
immortality in plays, 70 those familiar
with such extravagant campaigns. is
the probability that the newspapers
are acting from anything but earnest
motives in so clamorously demanding
the suppression of "Sapho." "Zaza" and
other plays OF a like nature. II is a
mock campaign, seemingly conducted
solely for the notoriety and advertis-
ing which the individual papers can
squeeze out OF the affair.

1t is said that there are several So
cieties in this country that are organ
lied for the purpose Of importing Eu-

somewhat indefinite. but II the purpose
is as stated, to introduce various kinds
OF birds. the sooner the government
puts a stop to such enterprises the
better. We have suffered enough

The immense development Of the ex-
port trade Of the United States and
the almost limitless possibilities for
its further extention are intimated in
figures given out recently by the
statistical bureau at Washington.
From this it appears that. in so far on
a country as Russia, American manu-
flcturers are competing successfully
with their German and English rivals
and that American bicycles. agricul-
tural machinery, steam engines and
tools in general are extensively sold
among the Black Sea provinces. The
figures given show that our sales in
Russia in 1888 amounted to less than
two and one-half million dollars and
that in the year 1883 they exceeded
ten million.

The general movement for the purifi-

In fact it might be suggested that mass

Still More Counterfeiting.

The Secret Service has unearthed an
other band of counterfeiters and Sc
cured large quantity of bogus bills,
which are SO cleverly executed that
the average person would never sus-
pect them of being spurious. Things
of great value are always selected by
counterfeiters for imitation, notably the
celebrated Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which has many imitators but no
equals for indigestion, dyspepsia, con-
stipation, nervousness and general de.
bility. The Bitters sets things right in
the stomach, and when the stomach is
in good order it makes good blood and
plenty of it. In this manner the Bit
ters get at the seat of strength and vi
tality, and restore vigor to the weak
and debilitated. Beware of counter
feits when buying.
