CHAPTER Xxx.
you Are Henry Ashley,


He then spoke of the examination,
of when being found of unsound mind
he was sent to an asylum, of his es-

Ing. With the cunning OF insanity 1t
now appeared that Mr., Hamilton had
induced weak,minded vagrant to
exchange clothes with him, and with
the disguise thus afforded succeeded
in getting clear Of the town. The
man who resembled Hamilton in gen.
ercl appearance was afterwards
drowned and Identified as patient
OF the asylum chiefly by his clothes,
as the body was unacceptable from
having been so long in the water.

from himself and wife.
He saw his wife and children at
church. His wife was greatly moved
by his resemblance TO her husband.
He was, also, much excited by her
looks aud those of Perley and Glare.
He knows nothing OF all this now,
but | can prove II by the testimony
OF Dan Fry and his mother. From
that time he began to watch her
house. his former home, one night
standing in pouring rain until he
was drenched and made sick IN con-

YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO
SUFFER
From Constipation, Bowel and Storiach
Trouble.
}. What is the beginning of sicknes:G

O. What is the beginning of siclzness7
A. Constipation,
q. What is CONSTIPATION?
A. Failure of the bowels to carry of the
waste matter which lies in the alimentary
canal where it decays and poisons the en-
tire system. Eventually the results are
death under the name of some other dis
ease. Note the deaths from typhoid fever
and appendicitis, stomach and bowel
trouble at the present time
Q. What causes Constipation?
A. Neglect to respond to the call of ma
ture promptly. Lack OF exercise. Excess
sive brain work. Mental emotion and i'm
Q. What are the results Of neglected
Constipation
A. Constipation causes more suffering
than any other disease. 1t causes rheu-
matism, colds, fevers, stomach, bowel,
kidney, lung and heart troubles, etc 1t is
the one disease that starts all others.
Indigestion, dyspepsia, diarrhoea, loss of
sleep and strength are its symptoms-piles,
appendicitis ana fiStula, are caused by
Constipation. It's consequences are known
to all physicians, but few sufferers realize
their condition until it is too late. Women
become confirmed invalids as result OF
Constipation.
O. Do physicians recognize this2
A. Yes. The first question your doctor
asks you is 'are you constipated2" That
is the secret.
Q. Can it be cured?
A. Yes, with proper treatment. The
common error is to resort to physics, such
as pills, salts, mineral water, castor oil, in
jections, etc, every one of which is in
furious. They weaken and increase the
malady. You know this by your own ex-
perience.
O. What then should be done to cure it?
A. Get bottle Of Mull's Grape Tonic at
hnll will W
cure Constipation and Stomach Trouble in
the shortest space of time No other
remedy has before been known to cure
Constipation positively and permanently.
@. What is Mull's Grape Tonic2
A. It is Compound with 40 per cent. of
the juice of Concord Grapes. 1t exerts a
peculiar strengthening, healing influence
upon the intestines, so that they can do
their work unaided. The process is gradual,
but sure. 1t is not physic, but it cures
Constipation, Dysentery, Stomach and
Bowel Trouble. Having rich, fruity
grape flavor, it is pleasant to take. AS a
tonic it is unequalled, insuring the system
against disease. 1t strengthens and builds
Q. Where can Mulrs Grape Tonic be
had2
A. Your druggist sells it. The dollar
bottle contains nearly three times the so
cent size.
Good for ailing children and nursing
mothers.
A free bottle to all who have never used
it because we know it will cure you.

LUNAR RAINBOW PRETTY SIGHT
Writer Tells Of One He Saw at Oar
IinGton, s. c.

| recall many lunar rainbows during
the half century since ] was an OBJ
servant boy, and, IL memory serves
me, one double lunar rainbow. But
the most perfect of these bows that
| recall | saw on the edge of Darling
ton, S. c. / was in road leading
north, with extensive fields east and
west, hence my opportunity.
The full moon had just risen above
the tops Of the distant woods and the
bow in the west was perfect. The
span of the bow was materially less
than the span of sun rainbow, but its
depth, or thickness, was proportion
ately much greater. The rainbow col
ors were distinct. but pale, as II the
arch were built of pale mother-of-pearl,
and they changed and faded less rap
idly than the sun rainbows have seen.
When in camp on Johns Island, s..
c., saw brilliant sun rainbow with
one foot OF the arch so near we could
stand on it, or pass behind and In
front of it, but we did not dig for
gold."-Macon correspondence Scien'
