THE ADVERTISERS DAILY SHORT STORY

After the first miserable excitement of it was over and she could think of the matter calmly she reflected dismally that she would not have minded so much if the quarrel had been about something which made the end justihable.
 If he had siighted her or if she had been jealous. if she had accepted the at- fentions of someone else, or even if he had been guilty of robbery and arson. think of than the contemptible thing which was accountable.
 A broken engagement and a good ex- cuse which was not accepted; mainly in- excuse. and an overwhelming amount of pride, on his part; angry words and much stingtng sarcasm and the same overwhelming amount of pride on her side; and the beautiful little romance had been covered under the dust of dead things.
 At the end of the stormy interview he had reminded her that the quarrel was not of his making. and that if any; at. tempts at reconciliation were to be made they must come from her. not from him. And she retorted bitterly-and, as she that event he would have to wait for ever.
 Half an hour later in her own room, she realized how much better 1t is to De angry than heart-broken, as the first Is a sensation which dies rapidly and the second Is a torment possessed of life everlasting. Cs(
 At the end of two dragging months 1t was still the same. There had been an anbroken silence between them. She had been gay. outwardly at least. and had worked her way industriously through a round of dances and dinners and teas. and had encouraged the attentions of Frank Biveridge ostentatiously In the unacknowledged hope that Essington might see and be led to interfere. But the sole one who appeared to profit by the scheme was Biveridge himself.
 It had seemed, when she awoke this Easter morning, that the one desirable thing in life was to stay where she was md try to sleep the rest of existence iway, and then the maid had rapped gently on the door and laid a violet box lied with violet ribbons on the bed be- side her. F..
 She opened it wearily Biveridge and his attentions were becoming unbear- lbie.
 The great double violets smiled up in her face, but no bit of pasteboard with lhe unwelcome name came with them.
 She thought idly that this was a strange thing for Biveridge, who invariably de- manded recognition where his gifts were thought sprang in her heart and made i1er dizzy with very happiness.
 She searched the box hurriedly. There was no card certainly, Nand, Biveridge man in the question. Only one man could have done this adorable thing She held the violets to her face with little hys- rerical laugh, T might have known!' CTS he had sent her since their engage ment had become a certainty. and he had realized that the conventional bit of pasteboard was superfuous. And now, she thought blissfully. he knew that she would understand when these little, mute ambassadors came to her in the same way How like him-how delicious of himi She would prove now that she.

Catarrh usually starts with a cold in the head, and if left unchecked in this climate, rarely gets we'll of itself.
 As fresh cold is taken the disease spreads, getting deeper and deeper. creep ing along the mucous membranes from nose to throat, from throat to windpipe, to bronchial tubes and from bronchial tubes to lung cells.
 The mucous membranes all connect, one with another. Hence it is easy to spread from one part to another lined with this same membrane. This Is why catarrh in the head soon affects the throat and finally the stomach itself, bringing on chronic catarrh of the stomach. which is a most obstinate form of dyspepsia.
 Everybody is now we'll agreed that ca tarrh is a blood disease and not local one, and the attempt to cure by local ap- plications simply gives temporary relief from the purely local symptoms without the remotest effect in staying the prog ress of the disease.
 There is a new preparation recently of fered to the public that is apparently des- tined to do away with every other form of catarrh treatment.
 This new remedy is not secret patent medicine, but is a large, pleasant tasting tablet composed of Bloodroot. Red gum from the Eucalyptus tree and other val uaDle ana naTmleSS SpeClncS, Wnlcn are taken internally and seems to have a remarkably beneficial effect upon tht blood and mucous membranes, apparently : eliminating the catarrhal poison from the whole system.
 These tablets, while being pleasant, con venient and absolutely safe to use have made cures in long standing cases of ca- tarrh that are little short of marvellous They are sold by druggists under nam of Stuarts Catarrh Tabalets, and any catarrh sufferer who has tried inhalers lotions, ointments, salves. etc. and re- alize their inconvenience and uselessness will fully appreciate the difference be- tween a mere palliative and a permanent cure after giving Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets an impartial trial.
 All druggists sell them at 50 cents for full sized package and no matter where the catarrh is located. in the head. throat, lungs or stomach, Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets will surprise you with the effective result of even a few days use.
