SAD DEATH OF YOUNG LADY

the sentence.
"Myra, darling, would you marry me
just as l am, without money or pros
pects?" and George pressed her hand
tenderly.
"Of course l would, and will mar
ry you this moment if you say SO.
have left everything to tell you that.
l cannot let you leave ne again."
So the two young hearts were unit
ed and they worked when they had
work to do, which was not often, but
they encouraged each other, and hoped
on without repining. Their greatest
worry was their landlady, who treated
them like criminals when the rent
fell behind few dollars.
Early that morning they had re-
ceived notice that on the day after
Christmas they would have to vacate,
the landlady explaining that she did
not have the heart to turn anybody
out OF the house on that holy day. 1t
was small comfort to them, for it mat
tered little whether it was Christmas
or the day after, they would not be
any better off.
Later in the afternoon the two
young people sat talking about their
future prospects, not forgetting the
far-off cottage. Myra placed on the
table loaf of bread, some butterine
and pot of weak tea. This is our
Christmas eve banquet" said she with
a merry laugh. "And our last scuttle
of COAL" declared George, with equal
levity. Tomorrow we will find \
warm corner in some church and stay
in it until we are thrown out, then next
day" "Oh, George, the next day
will be the landlady," walled Myra.
What shall we do?"
At that moment heavy footsteps
were heard in the hall, and a thunder
knock sounded on the door.
"Heavens," exclaimed Myra, "the
landlady. She has changed her mind
and will put us out tonight"
The door was flung open, and in
stumbled two men laden with baskets
and bundles. with Mrs. Dwight's
motherly form in the rear. With a
cry Myra was in her fathers arms.
and George was wringing his fathers
hand.
Now you two women set the table. I"
said he. breaking away from his son
and taking charge. We've come for
you. George. and we're all going back
home tonight. Them's the orders of
both mothers, and they must be
obeyed. Uncle John has come back
with a mint of money-he's going to
marry the widow Mullins-everything
has been paid off-hes bought out old
Plumb for you, and deposited money
for a big, new stock of goods-we're
the majority of the school board and
are going to put Myra back at a big
ger salary-rve bought some Gallo
ways and Jerseys and want you to
help on the farm-we're going to run

breath.

ATTACK ON BATHING.
Chicago Doctor Says That Washing
the Body Is Dangerous.

when people leave off bathing there
will be little or nothing for the doc
tors to do. Pneumonia, colds and a
hundred other ills result from the fool
ish habit of washing the body.
ITO bathe is to be dirty, for you
thereby make a sewer of the skin.
Blood attracted by the skin gives up
products that should be left to seek q
natural outlet and soils the skin"
The foregoing declaration, made by
Prof John Dill Robertson at the an
nual meeting Of the Chicago Electric
and Surgical society, has aroused the
interest of the members.
Prof Robertson asserted that the
theory that the closing Of the pores OF
the skin would result in death is false.
He said that all physiologies which
made such an assertion were wrong.
The habit of taking dry" baths was
also denounced The rubbing of a
rough towel over the skin. according
to DR.. Robertson, removes the natural
scales of the skin, or the false skin"
This, he said, conduced to the growth
Of bacteria upon the skin.
The doctor concluded with a touch
ing incident of a poor Eskimo brought
from Greenland to Boston, who had
never been i'll in his life. He was
given bath. contracted pneumonia
and died in two days.

Well Remembered.

Valley City, N Oak, Dec. 1.-Two
years ago Mrs. Matilda NJ. Boucher of
this place suffered a great deal with a
dizziness in her head. She was cured
of this by remedy called Dodd's Kid
ney Pills, and has not been troubled
since.
Shortly afterwards she had a bad
bilious attack, and for this she used
Diamond Dinner Pills and was COM
pletely cured in short time.
In January. 1903. she had an attack
of Sciatica, of which she says:
Il was almost helpless with the Sci
atica, but remembering what Dodd's
Kidney Pills and Diamond Dinner Pills
had done for me before, l commenced
q treatment of these medicines and in
three weeks was completely restored
to health. l have great faith in these
medicines, for they have been of SO
much benefit to me-"
Dodd's Kidney Pills are very popular
N Barnes County, having made a
great many splendid cures of Sciatica,
rheumatism and Kidney Troubles.
Many families use no other medicine.

should marry, everybody was willing.

But why should George leave his

The truth is the money was all

small investment. He knew just
where to go, and exactly what to do.
Everything that glittered was pure
gold to him.
The week flew away and no George.
Instead, Myra received e. letter, her
first love letter. one full of protesta-
tions Of everlasting love, and con-
tanning the information that he would
be obliged to remain in Chicago an
other week, as he had something in
Wow which would be lost II he went
away from it.
Another week, and still no George.
The letter which came in his place
was very vague, though as full Of love
as the first. This did not reassure the
girl, and she began to thilk some
thing besides business was keeping
him. Why did he write such incOm-
prehensible things? What did he
mean by telling her to have little
patience and he would bring back ten
times the money they had worked
three years to save? What did he
mean by talking about diamond rings,
silk dresses, velvet carpets and other
extravagant luxuries she had never
dreamed Of possessing, and did not
care about. What in the world was
an Automobile" that he talked about
paying fifteen thousand dollars for
and that would make mile minute?
She was uneasy and consulted her
father.
Don't you worry. Myra," said the
old man after reading the letter. ITO
be sure, he does write kind of wild
like. but he amt going to do any Of
them things he mentions. The rush
and shine of the city has gone to his
brain. He's seen the automobiles and
the skyscrapers, perhaps he has
bought an interest in the Masonic
Temple, they all do It, I've done it my

recollection of his green, salad days
when he swallowed gold bricks as a
turkey does corn. He didn't have
more than fifty dollars with him.
and when that's gone he'll have to

This was all the comfort Myra got
| from her father, and she tried to be
satisfied with his assurances that
everything would come out all right.
But another week followed the others.
