For long time he sat in silence, living
over the years during which skepticism
had been slowly but surely growing
upon him, and then Uncle Terry sud-
denly looked up at him. 1t is likely the
old mans keen eyes read at glance
what was in Albert's mind, for he said:

Taken With Cramps.

VIM. Kirmse, a member of the
bridge gang working near Littleport
was taken suddenly ill Thursday
night with cramps and kind of
cholera. His case was so severe that
he had to have the members of the
crew wait upon him and Mr.. Clifford
was called and consulted. He told
them he had medicine in the form
of Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and
Diarrnoea Remedy that he thought
would help him out and accordingly
several doses were administered with
the result that the fellow was able to
be around next day. The incident
speaks quite highly of Mr.. Giftord's

eyes, and, as on the evening before,
both he and Aunt Lissy retired early.
'They wish me WELL" Albert thought.
The next day Uncle Terry proposed
that Telly should drive to the head of
the island in his place.
I'm sorry We must leave us, Mr..
Page" he said when Albert was ready
to bid the old folks goodby. 81 wish
We could stay longer, but cum ag'in
soon, an remember our latchstring's
allus out fer ye.'
When the old carryall had made half
its daily journey Albert pointed to a
low rock and said, "There is spot
shall always be glad to see, for it was
there Uncle Terry first found me-"
Telly made no answer. In fact, she
had said but little since they started.
When they reached the little landing
no one else was there. No house was
in sight of it, and the solitude was
broken only by the tide. that softly
caressed the barnacled piles of the
wharf and the weed covered rocks on
either side. No boat was visible
adown the wide reach that separates
Southport island from the mainland,
and up it came light sea breeze that
barely rippled the flowing tide and
whispered through the brown and scar
let leaved thicket back of them. Over
all shone the hazy sunlight of October.
Telly stood listening and hoping that
the boat would be late. A look of sad
60,
than usually plaintive appeal In her
expressive eyes. II am sorry you are
going" she said. sit Is so lonesome
here, and it will seem more so now"
Then, as il that was q confession he
might think unmaidenly, she added, II
dread to have the summer end, for
when winter comes the rocks all
around seem like so many tombstones. !"
Albert put out his hand as If that
would aid his appeal, and as his I'm
gers closed over hers he said: II am
going away with heavy heart, Telly,
and when can come back Is hard to
say. Will you not promise me that
some time, no matter when, you will
be my own good and true wife? Let
me go away with that hope to comfort
me while work and save for home
for us both. Will you, Telly?"
But the plaintive face was turned
away. perhaps to hide the tears. Then
an arm stole around her waist, and as
he drew her close she whispered,
when am no longer needed here, If
you want me then will come to YOU"
She was sobbing. her head resting on
his shoulder. and as he kissed her un-
resisting lips boats sharp whistle
broke the sacred spell.
Go little way back, my darling"
he whispered, until the boat is gone.
l do not want any one to see you have
been crying"
When her misty eyes could no longer
see the boat that bore her heart away,
she turned, and all the long, lonely
way back loves tears fingered on her
lashes.

best fer some on us either, fer it's
hopin' fer some one to cum year after
year that's made Telly what she is an
grieved Lissy an me more'n she ever
knew"
Albert looked curlously at the old
man beside him, and new feeling of
trust and affection came to him. In
some ways Uncle Terry seemed like
his own father. Then, following that,
came sudden impulse to be frank
with him.
Uncle Terry" he said, 81 have a
little story to tell you, and, as 1t comes
close to you. believe it's right that
you should know it. The first time I
saw Telly said to myself, That girl
is prize any man may feel proud to

to her, and what with her few letters
and the little l have seen of her I feel
that she Is the one l want for wife.
I have not even limited it to her yet.
and before do l would like to feel
that yoE are satisfied with me- May

Uncle Terry reached out and grasped
Albert's hand and, shaking it cordially,
answered, "Ye hey my best wishes in
the matter, an 1 wouldn't say that If
l didn't think ye worthy O. her!' Then
he added with droll smile, "Lissy an
me sorter 'spected that Telly was the
magnet that drew We down herer'

consent" replied Albert gratefully. II
am earning an income that is more
than sufficient for two, and if Telly
will say yes shall be the happiest
man on earth. And now" he added,
let's go fishing, Uncle Terry"
II guess it's bout time," was the
answer, "fer thar's two schools work
in into the cove, an We'll have some
fun"
Three hours after, when they landed
at the cove fairly stated with pulling
in the gamy little mackerel and happy
as two boys, Telly met them with a
smile and the news that dinner was
ready.

Indigestion Causes
Catarrh Of the
Stomach.

For many years Il has been supposed that
Catarrh Of the Stomach caused indigestion
and dyspepsia, but tho truth Is exactly the
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re-
peated attacks Of indigestion intlames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes tho nerves Of the stomach, thus eaus-
Ing tho glands TO secrete mucin instead Of
the juices Of natural digestion. This u
called Catarrh Of tho Stomach.

seated themselves on top Of cliff.
This lone, uninhabited island and the
view here will content me until your

1T allus sets me thinkin' too, an

an I'm Almost through my spell o. life.
What puzzles me is what's the good O.
bein' born at all if we've got ter die so
soon! An, more'n all that, If life's the
Lords blessin', as the widder b'lieves,
why are so many only born to suffer or
be crippled all their lives? An why are
snakes an all sorts o. vermin, to say
nothin' O. cheatin lawyers, like Frye,
ever born at ALP
Albert smiled at the coupling of Frye
with vermin. "There are good many
wiser heads than mine, Uncle Terry,
that have never been able to answer
your question:" he replied, "and I
Ldoubt If they ever will. To my mind
1.-THE origin of life is an enigma, the
wide variations in matters of health
and ability an injustice, and the end
blank wall that none who scales ever
recrosses with tidings Of the beyond.
AS some one has expressed it: Life is a
narrow vale between the cold and bar
rem peaks of two eternities! We strive
n vain to look beyond the heights.
We cry aloud, and the only answer is
the echo Of our wailing cry"
"An' right thar" put in Uncle Terry
earnestly, lis whar l allus envy the
believers, as the wilder calls 'em, fer
they are satisfied what is beyond an
have it all pict'rd out in thar minds,
even to what the streets are paved
with an the kind O. music they're

my life an can't help bein a doubter,
but there are times when l envy the

"But do you believe death ends all
consciousness? asked Albert seriously.
Have you no hope, ever, of life be-

Albert looked at the roughly clad
and withered old man who sat near,
and in whose words lurked an under
tone of sadness mingled with faint
hope, and in an instant back came a
certain evening months before when
the Widow Leach had uttered prayer
that had stirred his feelings as no
such utterance ever had before. All
the pathos of that simple petition, all
its abiding faith in Gods goodness
and wisdom, all Its utter self abnega-
ton and absolute confidence in a life
beyond the grave, came back, and all
the consolation that feeling surely held

Naval Torpedoes.

Torpedoes for the destruction of YES
sells were first used in the spring Of
1861 by the Confederates in the James
river. In 1865 the secretary Of the
navy reported that more ships had
been lost by torpedoing than from all
other causes. General Rains, chief Of
the Confederate torpedo service, put
the number at ffty-eight, a greater
number than has been destroyed in all
the wars since.

the departed has made her home. She
united with the Baptist church sew
eral years ago and was constant and
faithful christian. In her declining
years her health would not permit Of
her attending to church duties but
strong faith in her Savior gave her
great strength to bear her iii health
and during her last days of her reign
among us, she prayed for strength

Her early home was beacon light of

the natural rendezvous and gathering

travellers and belated campers sought
it and were received and entertained.
Under such tutelage her heart grew
expanded until she became recognized
as the mother Of all the pioneers. Uu-
der the tutelage of these early envi-

border life as few do. She was an in

can realize what such a life meant;
separation from all that seems dear
to us; childhood home and friends;
lonesomeness and homesickness; pri-

all came life pure and sweet and
wholesome that remains as benedic-
ton and sweet incense to all her
friends who knew and loved her and
who now weep with her children
