CHAPTER XVIII.

1t seemed to me, lying there alone
In the inner room, that it was . long
time before June, the Hotteptot "boy.s
returned to the farm house.
1t was quite dark, indeed, when Dick
Mulhon, with an angry exclamation,
unfastsned the door to let him in.
I was delighted to hear their voices,
though Mullion was angry and though
l feared that June might betray me.
For all that time, since the old doc
tors coming and going away again,
had been left by myself. Million had
not once crossed the threshold of the
room where lay, and confess that
had not had rterve enough to cali
him.
AT once master and servant began
long wrangle. which was carried on
In an undertone. that it might not
reach my ears NMullion was up
braiding, the RottA,ntot sullenly ex-
postulatings protesting; thus much I
could gather from their respective
tones.
Then there was' silence again,
though could judge iby the sounds
they made as they moved about, out
of my sight, that both were still In
the worst Of tempers.
And still neither Of th.,m came in
to me.
The candles hads long aimee been
lighted in the Kitchen, where also the
flame of the fire helped to alive light.
But the little stream of brightness
which came IN through the doorway
and made one yellow patch on the
rough, dirty floor and discolot ed wall
of the room where lay, was all the
illumination vtSuchsafe to me-.
And my room, which had on&y one
window and was not too wen lighted
in the broadcast sunshine, became naore
OF dungeon than ever in these cir,
cumstances. For there was little glass
left in the panes which had been
mended for my benefit with brown pa
per; and ftangle of trees and bushes
grew outside, so close that the light
est breeze made, their branches stake,
with an ir1 itating tap-tap-tap, against
such glass as was left.
at last tha dreadful silence was
broken by MplAon, who gave some or
der, sullenlyl and in q low voice, to
june. y m st have concerned me,

In
Good
Health

A woman makes her toilet with care and
content. But in bad health it often
happens that the qualification of being
we'll attired is lost. There is hardly
strength to brush and dress the hair, and
there is small courage to make the effort
to keep up appearances.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
makes weak women strong, by making
them we'll. The common cause of FEM
mine weakness is found in diseased
condition of the womanly organism.
cFavorite Prescription" establishes reg
ularity, dries embedding drains, heals
inflammation and liberation, and cures
female weakness. The tonic effects of this
medicine are remarkable; it soothes the
nerves, encourages the appetite, and in
duces refreshing sleep. It gives comfort
and courage to prospective mothers, and
practically does away with the pains
commonly experienced at maternity.
There is no alcohol in uFavorite Pre-
scription" and it is entirely free from
opium, cocaine, and all other narcotics.
Women suffering from disease in ag-
gravated form are invited to consult DR..
Pierce by letter free. All letters are

about their supplement work of jacking
up the assessments on the holdings of

Of the Dead.

Peter Lain, age thirty-eight, was en-
gagged as bartender and waiter by

way and Fourth street, Union HILL at
quarter to II o'clock yesterday morning.
At s O'Clock last evening Lain, Accord
ing to Mr.. Bindernagle, announced that
he was cock of the roost and unless he
received two dollars in good and lawful
money of the United States forthwith
and instanter, there would be dead pro-
prietor and dead negro cook.
Il refused to pay him." said Mr. Bin

was drunk. He got drunk on my stock =

made by Lain for his money, his employ
er also said that the bartender had run
to the kitchen and had helS The fort there
for fifteen minutes, branofshing knife
and threatening to cut the head off of
anybody who attempted to touch him.
Bindernagle and the cook were not dis
posed to question Lahn's title of SOW
ereignity under the circumstances and
bided the time which would bring po-
liceman to the scene. Lain wilted at
the sight of the bluecoat. He dropped
the knife and began to cry. He cried
all the way to the, police station, and in
the presence of the Recorder. The mix
lures of brands made Lain quite melan
clply. His story of the trouble differed
from that of his employer. He said that
three or four men in the place had at
tackled him at Bimdernagle's bidding and
that what he did was in self-defense.
He said he had wife and sick children
and wanted to go home. Mr.. Binder
nagle began to wilt at this, and on in
quiry told the Recorder that Lain did
not strike him, but had only welded the
knife and used threats.
"You are drunk now," said the Re
corder to Lain.

doctor and see if l am," said Lahn.
