Whose Say-so is Best3

With nearly all medicines put up for
sale through druggists, one has to take
the makers say-so alone as to their cura-
tive value. OF course. such testimony is
not that of a disinterested party and
accordingly is not to be given the same
credit as II written from disnterested
motives. DIR. Pierce's medicines. how
ever. form a single and therefore striking
exception to this rule. Their claims to
the confidence of invalids does not rest
solely upon their makers say so or

public knowledge, being printed on each
separate bottle wrapper. Thus invalid
sufferers are taken into DR.. Pierce's full
confidence. Scores of leading medical
men have written enough to fill volumes
in praise of the curative value of the
several ingredients entering into these

Why She Yielded.

A small man ST in the corner of a
Subway car. An extremely thin and
very well dressed woman sat down
next him. but placed herself exactly
on the line dividing two seats The
car filled up and strap-hangers were
sit down between the woman and the
man in the corner. He gave il up.
Another tried on the other side, with
the same lack of success, and he, too,
joined the strap brigade. AT Four
teenth street more people crowded into
the car, but the thin woman serenely
held her position. At length the man
in the corner said, mildly:
Madame, you are occupying two
seats" The woman gave him scorn-
full look and, glancing at her attenu-
ated proportions, said very emphati-
cally: Certainly not, sir"
Il did not say you were filing
them," answered the man.
A smile rippled from face to face
like summer wave on a sandy beach.
The woman slid hastily away from the
man in the corner and incidentally
landed in the middle OF a seat, where
upon the fat man clinging to a strap
sank slowly and heavily into the va
cant space, with deep sigh of satis-
faction, and peace reigned once more,

CHAPTER II.-continued.

Bending keen look upon the pris-
oner, the planter addressed him.
II presume there is little need of my
telling you, my man that you are in a
fair way Of stretching hemp. Caught
within our lines, there is but one con-
clusion to be drawn-that is, you are
a Federal spy. OF course you will
deny this, but it matters little. We
are justified in acting upon this sup
position. These are times for action,
and our policy is to reduce Sherman's
army at every chance"
Under these circumstances I might
as well prepare to meet my fate" re-
marked John, coolly.
What! are you anxious to die?"
calculated the planter, with consider
able surprise.
Not at ALL On the contrary, have
every reason for desiring to live, but
as soldier l long ago made up my
mind to face the worst manfully when
it came"
But there is peculiar stigma at

fall in battle is honorable-to be hung

"Granted-yet not being a spy I
take little interest in the controversy.
You have not come here to engage in

"Ah! you know me?"
That is the penalty for being a

tion, and looked curlously at the man
whose shrewd brain had evolved it.
One glance at that determined face
told him Squire Granger meant all he
said, and that refusal to accept the
contract would be the signal for
hasty execution.

'It does not matter-still, you would

Squire Granger was a man of busI.
ness, as he proved by producing the
document in question. At a signal a
couple of Johns captors entered to
act as witnesses, and in signing he
was careful to put down only so much
of his name as he had already given.
1t was evident that all preparations
were made for the event, even to a
parson, before the expedition was sent
out to capture a bachelor Yankee.
John aroused himself to take some
interest in the case. Perhaps the
novelty of the situation had some
thing to do with this departure from
his usual nonchalance, or it may be.

accept 1t, even though the inevitable
result was a sacrifice of personal
liberty.
