CHARLES READE

Ruperta kept her countenance with diff
iculty.
1T Is not requcS9, II is a command"
Mrs. Bassett for once In her life fired
up. And a most tyrannical one." said
She
Ruperta put her hand before her moth
er's mouth and then turned TO her
father.
There was no. need 20 express your
wish so harshly, papa. We shall obey"
Then she whispered her mother. And
Mr.. Rutland shall pay for It,"
Mrs Bassett communicated this behest
TO Lady Bassett In a letter.
Then Lady Bassett summoned all her
courage. and sent for her son Compton.
Compton" said she, II must speak TO
Reginald. Can you find him?"
"Oh, yes. I can find him. am sorry
to say anybody can find him at this time
OF day"
why. where is her"
II hardly like to tell you
"Do you think his peculiarities have es-
capped me?"
"At the public house.
ASK him to come 70 me-"
Compton went TO the public house, and
there. TO his no small disgust. found Mr..
Reginald Bassett playing the fiddle. and
four people, men and women. dancing to
the sound while one OF two more smoked
and looked on.

ANSWER THIS
Can Prov dllCa Demand Any
Fur h3r frJO.?

There is not newspaper reader In
Providence who has not read the en-
phatic testimony touching Doans Kidney
Pills. published first in the summer OF
1896 by Mrs John Bush of ls5 Burnside
street. Undoubtedly many who read the
said testimony have often wondered If
the cure effected by Doan's Kidney Pills
was permanent or transItory. Read this:
I'm the month OF January. 1896, 1 was
cured of kidney complaint by procuring
Doans Kidney pills at drug store and
taking a course of the treatment. I told
the people OF Providence the particulars
of the said cure. and can only add to
that 1t is considerably over three years
from that time. and the cure then ef-
fected has not only remained permanent,
but to my knowledge others in Providence
who have used the remedy have received
uneauivocal results"
