CHAPTER XVII.

That afternoon Blanche, who re-
NAMED at home, had encountered an
experience more thrilling than any
thing which had ever befallen her.
She had tried, after the major had
left for the city, to pass the time away
with various amusements. She had
poured out her complete happiness to
the sympathetic pages of her diary;
she had, when that Joy had spent it.
self, gone to the piano and played her
guardians favorite airs, sung his IA
vorite songs, imagining him in his
smoking jacket and slippers in his usu-
al seat on the great leathern lounge.
Then a small cloud rose between her
and the sun of her present happiness.
It was the memory that such a short
time had elapsed since another had
occupied her place, and that thought
had frequently beset her of late, but
seldom with such persistency as now.
She tried to fight against it's influence,
to tear herself from its grasp, but in
vain. One of the most tantalizing of
these thoughts was that Jeanne God
dard's room still remained just as the
absent woman had left it, just as
Blanche wildly remembered it on the
night preceding Mrs. Goddard's de-
parture. It's door had not been opened
since its occupant had left. Blanche
supposed it was locked. as she had
once, in passing, seen the key to the
door hanging on nail outside.

COULDN'T WEAR SHOES.

Sumpter, ILL.,, June 10.-Mrs. ]. B.
Flanagan, of this place, had suffered
with Dropsy for fifteen years. She
was so very bad that for the last
three years, she has not been able to
wear her shoes. She had doctored all
the time, but was gradually getting
worse.
Last winter Mr.. Flanagan, who was
very much discouraged, called for
some medicine at Mr.. j. ]. Dale's drug
store in Carmi. Mr.. Dale persuaded
him to have his wife try Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and he bought six boxes. His
wife used five out of the six, before
she was entirely cured. She is now as
sound and we'll as ever she was, COM
pletely restored to health, and free
from any symptom whatever of
Dropsy.
To say that Mrs. Flanagan is pleased
at her wonderful deiverance, does not
half express her feelings, and she
and Mr.. Flanagan are loud in their
praises of Dodd's Kidney Pills, and of
Mr.. Dale for recommending this Won
derful remedy to them.
The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
cured Mrs. Flanagan of such a severe
case of Dropsy, after the doctors had
given her up, has made them the most
talked-of remedy ever known in White
County.

power again.
IF I meet her nothing-no power in
Heaven nor beneath-could prevent
my killing her"
Nothing but Blanche,'' said the
priest. "She would prefer to have as
little publicity as possible. No; re-
straint must be part of your burden.
The woman must live"
ITO assassinate Blanche?" cried the
major. 'No!'
''She will never do it when she
knows that you and Blanche are
parted. OF course, Blanche will want
to go away at once"
"Of course" Goddard staggered
away. A cab was passing, and he
hailed it. The cabman smiled know
ingly on the priest as he helped his
friend to get in. He thought he was
taking up drunken swell. The
priest gave the directions in cold
tone of reproof, and, pressing God.
dard's hand, he turned away.
''Oh, God, don't desert the poor, poor
fellow he said, with lis eyes raised
to star which, pale as white dia-
mond, CLEANED above the yellow glare

MY frst wife told me you said
Blanche had an absolutely incurable
disease of the heart, and"
God forbid: Why, there never was
. thing the matter with her, except
she had some secret grief, or trouble.
You must pardon me if I was obliged
to suspect the cause of it, aided as I
was by a little gossip I had heard.
This kept her out of spirits naturally,
and she needed change of scene, but
| could not persuade her to leave
Lyndhurst. The medicines gave her
were only tonics. You have given her
all the medicine she needed, Mai. God
dard. 1t seems to me that there was
some suggestion that your first wife
was not-not exactly sound, mentally,
when she left you. Is this true?"
YES" answered the major, slowly;
"yes!"
well, surely you ought not to have
let any absurd fancy of hers make an
impression on YOU"
Goddard rose to his feet. He looked
like man completely dazed.
II have believed her life in danger
ever since," he managed to say.
"Well, you certainly have nothing to
fear on that score" said DR.. Fleming,
as he followed his guest to the door.
1T was not because I wished to see
her professionally that informed her
of my return to New York, but be-
cause she reminded me of the only child
l ever had-which I lost five years
ago"
There was no ceremony in Goddard's
leavetaking. He left the physician
staring at him in wonder as he headed
for the stairs leading down into the
Office.
Father Surtees emerge1 from a
throng of men near the newspaper
racks and came forward in the glare
of electric lights.
"Well?" he inquired, eagerly.
''You were right" said Goddard.
THANK God!" calculated the priest,
fervently, and they made their way
to the street. They walked half a
block in absolute silence. Goddard's
face was full of thoughts too vague
for utterance.
There is but one course before YOU
now" counseled Father Surtees, as
they paused on an isolated street cor
ner and faced each other
"And that is
ITO make clean breast of it all to
Blanche"
IF she were dying it might not be
so hard" sid Goddard, "but-' tears
of agony rushed to his eyes; "but to
know that she will live on to loathe
me as she would a noisome reptile
which had for moment coiled itself
around her unsuspecting heart. Oh,
God! advise me to kill myself!''
you never were a coward, Row
land.' And Father Surtees laid his
hand on Goddard's arm with a tender
touch. 1T is the consequence of your
fault; take it on you like a man. Go
to her. Tell her the whole truth"
Thank you," said the major; II

priest caught his arm again.

Artificial Marble.

Manufacturers are actually making
marble by the same process by which
nature makes it, only in few weeks
instead of a few thousand years.
They take rather soft limestone
and chemically permeate it with va
rious coloring matters, which sink
into the stone, and are not mere sur
face coloring, as in scaglio1a. The
completed material takes a fine pol
ish. and many of the specimens are
of beautiful color and marking. Used
as a veneer, it is about one-third the
price of natures marble.-London

The use Of inhalers and the applics.

the nose and throat to cure catarrh is no
more reasonable than TO rub the back
to cure kidney disease. Catarrh is just
as much a blood disease az kidney
trouble or rheumatism and it cannot be
cured by local treatment any more than
they can be.
To cure catarrh, whether in the head,
throat or stomach an internal antiseptic
treatment is necessary to drive the
catarrhal poison out OF the blood and
system, and the new catarrh cure is
designed on this plan and the remarkable
success Of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets is
because being used internally it drives
out catarrhal infection through action

RELIGIOUS
VS.. SECRET
SOCIETIES
Argument in Favor of the
Legitimacy of Fraternal Or
derS.
t. C. Mackcy in Harrisburg Bulletin.

T c. Mackcy in Harrisburg Bulletin.
Just why some so-called~ religious
teachers feel called upon to antagonize
the fraternal organizations Of today has
never been fully understood by me.
Such antagonism comports untavUrably
with broad gauge Christianity.
If there are any societies that pretend
t. be purely religious, or to do the legit'
mate work of the church, have not
heard of them. Yet every one Of them
is founded on the great cardinal princi-
pies of Christianity. Some are patri-
otic. like the Grand Army some are
protective, like the Knights of Labor
some are social, like the Masons some
are relormatory, like the Sons of Tenn
perance, while many are benevolent,
like the United Workmen, Woodmen OF
the World, Odd Fellows, Forestsrs, and
othsrs. They have secrets and signs,
and what of il? Why, in the Bible we
read of the VOWS Of Jacob the peculiar
signs between David and Jonathan and
history records that because Of persecu-
tions the early Christians had signs and
signals for mutual protection, and it is
thus societies are organized today.
