Jack entered his uncle's office with the air of one who puts himself in training for the martyrs crown, while Kitty busied herself with pupils, and sang in the village choir. There was con. siderable going on in social way in Salisbury; and they were naturally much together.
 To console himself for the tedium o1 the hours spent over Coke and Black. stone, Jack turned his attention tc horse flesh; and after he had selected a speedy colt-for which his uncle paid without protest,-it was Kitty who ac. cOmpanied him on his drives, still as a matter of course.
 There chemical combination in which certain explosive ele nents min. gle harmlessly, until, at last, the stu. dent tries the experiment of letting fall upon the com bination tiny dror of colorless liquid, when a most as. founding explosion results.
 Something of the same sort happen. ed one day in quiet Salisbury, when a demure little French woman, Madame Alphonsine, she called herself, sudden. ly appeared and fitted up with ravish- ing hats and bonnets one of the vacant stores on the town street. She was accompanied by tall dark man, who eventually became known as Monsieur Abelard, madame's milliner.
 A man milliner! Salisbury society shaken from center to circumfer- ence!
 But, when, in the course of time, the doctors wife, who represented the social leader in the town, gave an af. ternoon tea to meet her sister-in-law, the wife of an ex-governor from some western state, little Miss Wright, who had been the towns milliner since time immemorial, felt that it was all up with herl
 There went out from Madame AL phonsine's workrooms numberless creations, Miss Wright always called them "bunnits, ,"-sent home in smart, pyramidal, green boxes which were Frenchy at the very outset. Miss Wright had never gotten beyond big paper bags with her name on them in

jedge an the widder'd double up, give them time; an that the young folks'd foller spit," commented Capt Water man; and as he was the town sealer, his words carried the weight of final ity; so the conversation drifted to the probability of the congressman from that district furnishing his dis grunted constituents such moldy seeds as had been received from him during the season just ended; and the two Jack Frosts were forgotten for the time.
 So the grocer's boy had guessed John Frost's secret! And he fancied that he had hidden it from all the world! He could not remember when he had begun to love the little orphaned girl, the memory of whose blue eyes and yellow hair and rounded red cheeks so often stole in between him and his books, lending glow to the gray of his humdrum existence. She had a sweet, sympathetic voice, which John Frost loved to hear in the simple bal lads which he best understood; and it had been his pleasure to aid her in re- alizing her ambition to take a course of study at conservatory of music. The conservatory vacations and those of the college coincided; and it was but natural and the home coming of the two younger members of the fam fly should mean a great deal to Kitty $ mother and to Jacks uncle. Like wise it was natural that during her holidays Kitty should ride and row and skate with the young collegian, who always brought home the newest thing in slang, and the most wonderful cre- ation in apparel.
 It was Jack who turned the leaves of Kitty's music, during the long win ter evenings, while the widow sat and sewe3, and the dignitied judge, at the opposite side of the table, read the evening paper, and tried to keep down the rebellious feeling in his heart as his landlady called his attention to the harmonious blending of the voices of the young folks, as she called them, in unconscious irony.
 At the end of his college course

of its kind I've had in stock this sea- son. Real Evetalian art work on that. judge!" and he displayed the third in the trio of which young Jack had al- ready taken two. "Isn't that fine and dandy? Costs bit, of course; $5, but I'll make it s4 to you, judge!' "It will dol" the lawyer said, dryly, handing him a S5 bill.
 ''Much obliged, judge. Any good looking widow who would find fault with a beauty like that"
 But the annoyed barrister was out of bearing, slamming the door as he went.
 The widow! Very naturally that would be Anderson's s suppositionj And the supposition of the whole world!
 ''I pass among my fellows as man of at least ordinary common sense! It is we'll that people cannot read what is in my disordered mind, or there would be good deal of talk about no fool like an old fool!" he meditated bitterly, as he strode angrily along. He must get some roses for Kitty, he reminded himself. For Kitty! Oh, why, why must all his hopes and plans be for her, yet to no avail?
 Fortunately, the florist said nothing to grate upon the judges nerves, as he laid the big, pink roses in their box. Every one was not such pre- sumptuous fool as Anderson, the judge reflected.
 Perhaps 1t was the surprise of seeing him at that early hour which caused Kitty $ pale cheeks to flush so prettily. Her mother was on an errand at a neighbours, and the maid was out. He had found her sitting listlessly in a big chair beside the fireplace, her white hands idle in her lap, as though noth- ing mattered; quite unlike the active, energetic Kitty of old.
 "I am so glad to find you alone. That you are to be the first to know" the judge said, impulsively taking the chair on the opposite side of the hearth. "I have had such good news just now. A valentine worth receiv- ing"
 He could have cried out for the look in her blue eyes as they met his.
 "Oh, am so gladp' she said gravely.
 "Judge Oliver notifies me that he is to appoint me states attorney, at the next term of the court"
 "How lovely! But you have worked so hard. You deserve all your honors." A wave of color swept over his grave face at her praise.
 "I realize to-day that I have been working all these years for one object" he remarked somewhat irrelevantly.
 "And how happy you must be, now that you have attained your ambl- tion," was her response.
 He did not explain to her that he considered his life 3 huge failure, for all of his honors. No need of pa1n1ng her; for did she not love Jack?
 "But how selfish of mel! he ex- claimed suddenly. 'I have something for you," and he laid the box of flowers in her lap. "Oh, I forgot to say,-my new office means that I must go to live in Middlesex. Judge Oliver suggests it; and it will be better so;-more con-

 "What is the doctor to prescribe for his patient?" he was questioning her madly. ''See! It shall be wholly as she wills"
 "A trip, not to Florida, but to-tO- MiddleSex," she whispered, timidly; but no syllable of what she said es- caped him. "Oh, don't go away" and then he knew that she was crying; but by some strange intuition he found means of comforting her; likewise he discovered in that instant the true prescription to drive all nal du occur away.
 Jacks valentine came by mall to Kitty the following morning, but no Jack came with it.
 Late that afternoon one of the young mans cronies presented himself to Judge Frost at the latter's office, l with the intimation that he would confer with his honor in private. "It's message from Jack, sir!" he an- nounced timidly, scarce knowing what reception he might expect. ! But the judge was in a mood to beam upon the world that afternoon. "Well?" he questioned, eenially.
 "Well, judge, Jacks in a bad fix. He started late last night to skip the town with Alphonsine. That black leg of an Abelard,-it turns out he's the madames husband, and uses the woman for a decoy,-objected. Jack got as far as hotel in Middlesex. He's in pretty bad state, sir. His face is spoiled for month of Sundays. Abe lard is no child when it comes to land ing uppercuts. And the pair robbed him of his watch and money. He says to tell you, judge, that he only got what was coming to him by rights; but if you'll just do the square thing by him this once you'll never, never-'' ''Of course! of course! In Middlesex, is he? Well, Middlesex isn't half . bad place to be, " and the judges pulse stirred at memory of a little blue-eyed girl who had expressed preference for Middlesex, ignoring Florida.

And perhaps, Tony, he had bet ter stay in Middlesex until he gets Frenchman gave him in punishment. It's fine day, isn't it, Tony? Inever remember such . fine St Valentines day. Oh, that's all right. He's my nephew, of course; and boys will be boys. There s money enough there to salve his bruises, I think. In fact, I don't object to being the doctor under such circumstances, Tony" and he laughed unaccountably.
 "If any other man in Salisbury talked like that, I'd swear he wasn't all in, i" meditated the mystified Tony, as he shuffled through the outer office to the street. touching the check in his inside pocket, to make sure that he was not dreaming. "But Judge Frost!' and he gasped in amazement. "Well, he's peach of an uncle, all right, all right!''
 But the judge, going back to the preparation of brief, was quoting, not Estee on Excise Tax Laws, or Kirby on Jurisdiction and Venue" We'll it was that Tony could not hear him as he murm ured sentimentally:-
 Two pairs of eyes, two hands that meet;
 Two lips,-And there's the cure complete

SAVED QlY LIEF:

That's what a prominent druggist said of Seott's Emulsion a short time ago. As a rule we don't use or refer to testimonials in addressing the public, but the above remark and similar expressions are made so often in connec- ton with Scott's Emulsion that they are worthy of occasional note. From infancy to old age Scott's Emulsion offers a reliable means of remedying inn proper and weak develop ment, restoring lost flesh and vitality, and repairing waste. The action of Scott's Emulsion is no more of a secret than the composition of the Emul- sion itself. What it does it does through nourish- ment-the kind of nourish- ment that cannot be ob- tained in ordinary food. No system is too weak or delicate to retain Scott's Emulsion and gather good from it.
