As If it were only yesterday / could,
in Imagination, see his pale handsome

ried him away to prison.

about dusk, my husband and / were
sitting on our front porch, when a man
came walking quickly down the walk
and halted at the steps. / was horri-
fed to see that his hands were shackled
together, and on one foot he dragged
long chain; he wore a convict's garb,
and in his pale, thin face we both rec
ognized the features of Henry Derbin.
He it was-but oh, how changed
from the handsome, dashing fellow we
had sent to prison years agol The
beautiful brown hair was cut close to
his head and the once flashing eyes had
the hunted look of a closely pursued
animal, and the hideous convict clothes
hung like a sack from his emaciated
form. He glanced ~nervously from my
husband to my own startled face, but I
was glad to see he did not recognize us.
Friends" he said, "as you see, / am
an escaped convict. No doubt you
have heard of Henry Derbin, sent to
prison from this county years ago.
He now stands before you begging for
mercy. I have not long to live, but be-

Celery
Compound
CURES RHEUMATISM.

Rheumatism, which does its terrible work
in the muscles, joints, and tissues, is caused by
uric acid which gathers in the blood. To get
rid of this poisonous acid which produces the
limitations, pains, agonies, i~nfammations, and
swellings peculiar to rheumatism, Paine's
Celery Compound should be used without
delay. No other medicine gives such prompt,
cheering, and happy results. 1t is the only
medicine that prevents a return Of the dreaded
disease. Paine's Celery Compound braces
the nerves, the blood is quickly cleared Of all
irritating poisons, tissue and muscle are bulk
up, and the digestive organs perfectly toned.
Do not treat with indifference the slightest
rheumatic symptoms; the early use of Paine's
Celery Compound will save you weeks and
months of suffering. Mr.. s. D. Conway,
St. Louis, Mo-, was permanently cured by
Paine's Celery Compound after repeated fail
ures with other medicines and physicians; he
says;-
81 am % years Of age, and have lived in
St. Louis ~ years, and all this time with the
exception of three years, / have served IN the
Engineers Department as Inspector. Last
winter / contracted rheumatism and was laid
up. tried all remedies and doctors, but all
failed until | struck Paine's Celery Compound,
which has made a permanent cure in my case.
I have recommended it to many, and they
have used Il with the same result"

friends, for the love of God, file of
these chains and set me free"
Oh, how my heart leaped at the
thought that 1 could now undo my
work and ease the long troubled con-
science. 1 looked imploringly at my
husband, who bid me go and bring the
file. I went with flying feet. As I gave
it to him he must have read my
thoughts. How / ,longed to tell the
poor fellow the part I had taken in his
life, and ask the forgiveness I eraved,
for, as ne took the file, he said;
my man, I am a lawyer, and
strange to say, one of those who con-
victed you, and as such should deliver
You up to justice, but for the sake Of
my wife here, who was your child Wit
cess, and has always grieved over your
sad fate, I win set you free"
He fixed his sad gaze upon me and
said; do not trouble yourself, dear
madam, it was justice, for I broughtib
on myself by my rashness and fiery
temper, but God only knows how I
bless you for giving me even a few
hours OF freedom.
He left us and hurried away toward
his home. Ny heart felt lighter than
it had for years. and I prayed thatthe
poor fellow would have the privilege
Of seeing his mother and sweetheart
again. But my hopes were dashed
away as a number of officers dashed
past the house in close pursuit of their
prisoner. They had only been gone
a few moments when a pistol shot rang
clear and sharp on the evening air.
Ny husband caught my shuddering
form in his arms, for we knew that, By
his own hand, the soul of Henry Derbin
had gone to trial in a higher court,
