Old John Tabor of Bowie Creek sat
on his veranda. his huge legs spread
suggestive of the prongs of a black oak
tree. The Fuckers between his eyes
drew his brush-heap brows together.
His pretty daughter, Mollie, stood
at the rail of the balusters, her apron
pressed to her eyes. A curtain of
morning glory vines dropped from the
caves to the ground, one blossom Of
which touched the cheek of the young
girl with the soft lips of sympathy.
mo use in none o. your foolishness.
You amt got sense enough to know
what's good for ye. Jest to think ye're
wantin' to marry that school teacher,
Ed. Bronson, with his soft hans, gal
face and baby eyes, an turn yer con-
trary back on Tom Bradley, who could
split more rails in one day than that
ar Bronson could split in ten years.
You think you could live with him on
soft moonshine, idle breezes, kisses an
all that sort O. truck, forgittin' that
arter a few messes of that diet you'd
like to try round or two of Eaters,
pork and beans, soda biscuit and
strong coffee"
Pap" spoke the girl between con-
.yulstye sobs, you can't make me mar
~ Tom. 1 can't do it; I won't do it,
I tell you!"
"Lookee hur' gal; I'm gittin' my
dander clean up in my ha'r now! You
belong ter me until you're twenty -one,
an I sorter allow, under the laws OF
the state O. Kentucky, made an per-
vided fer SIGH cases as this, that I'll
do as please with my own property.
Heah me? I'll have no kicks an
bitches. When I stand you side an
side to be hitched up ter the matri-
monial wagon, by CAD, sub, I'll have
no stallin'! Think I'm goin' to give
you to a little slender limitation OF
man with nuthin' but er edication
(Which only makes people fools and
idlers), while big, strong man with
two bosses, three cows an forty head
of sheep stands ready to foreclose on
we? Not much! You're mine, say
till tomorry night, then I give ye to
Tom Bradley. So hush your snubbin'
an go git dinner in race horse time,
for promised Bradley to 60 with him
to town this evening to git the IL
cense."
As soon as the old man had disap-
paared behind wall of dark green
corn at the rear of the house, Mollie,
in q frenzy of dispair and grief, went
to the front door and gazed with eager,
clustering eyes up and down the road.
She wanted to see some one she could fly
to. to whom she could reveal her peril,
and beg for a rescuing hand. Not more
than q minute had passed when two
men ON horseback rode into view.
They were Richard Hardin, the
wealthiest young man in that section,
and his younger brother, Jerre.
"Mr. Hardin" screamed the girl as
the men rode opposite the house, "get
down an come in a mint"
Richard dismounted, handing his
bridle-reins to his brother.
When he entered the house the girl,
in spite of herself, broke into a cry

that convulsed her frame, and rem
dered her speechless for some time.
The sympathetic young bachelor gazed
upon her, wonder and pity in his face.
He had a vague idea, however. the
occasion of her grief. When she had
mastered herself she briefly related
her troubles, and begged him to save
her.

NEARLY GONE.

The Doctor Had Little Hope.
Owosso, Mich, March 25.-(Special.)
ELITE Rebekah Lodge, No. 2, I. o. O.
F., Of this town, came very nearly los
ing their esteemed and capable secre-
ry, Mrs. Julia A. Mallahan. Mrs. Malta
han caught severe cold last winter,
and like many others, failed to recog-
nize the dangerous possibilities until it
had settled in her kidneys and left her
with very severe bearing down pains
and almost constant backache. 1t al
most carried her off. Mrs. Mallahan
tells the story this way:
IT caught cold last winter, which I
neglected until it settled i'll my kid
neys, causing severe bearing down
pains and almost constant bachache.
My health had previously been so good
that I paid little attention to these
symptoms, until the disease had gone
so far that my doctor entertained but
a slight hope of my recovery.
| fortunately, one of our Lodge Mem
bers mentioned Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Her description of the cures they had
effected sounded like a fairy tale, but
sent for box, deciding to give them a
trial. I soon found that she had but
half told the story of what they would
do. bless the day that I first tried
them, and have nothing but the high
est praise for them"
Many very valuable lives have been
saved by the timely use of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills. and not few Of these have
been in Owosso and other neighboring
Michigan towns. There seems to be
no case of kidney trouble or backache
that Dodds Kidney Pills will not cure.
They are SOC a box, six boxes for
$3.50. Buy them from your local drug

down a laugh, II will mind him
Maybe he knows best"
"Bully for you, Moll!' cried the old
man, stepping in at the door.
Hardin explained that he had SEM

and that he had come to go with him
after the license. The old fellow wal

on the road. he didn't refuse Hardin's
prefer of drink from his bottle.
The old man was spreer. When b..
got one drink it was the beginning
of a two weeks drunk" Frequently
tapping Hardin's bottle, he was in ex.
cellent shape before town was reached
The bottle exhausted, the pair en-
tered the nearest saloon and began to
drink to the health of the young cou'

while the old man was rapidly passing
from the political to the religious stage
of drunkenness. The crying stage il

Hardin said they'd better go get the

When they reached the clerks office
the old mans eyes were tilted back
in their sockets. Hardin whispered

Hardin and the clerk laughed, and
the former took the license when made

Hardin took the old man down to
the saloon, and permitted him to pour
down drink after drink until he fell
in a heap at the bar. Then he had him

Hardin handed the license to Mollie

and had the couple married four hours
after he and the old man had started
for Vanceburg.
Tabor continued his spree for two
weeks, never coming home during the
time.
One day he was standing at the bar
treating a lot of appreciative loafers
and Dragging on his son-in-law, Tom
Bradley, when the latter entered and
called him out the back way.
