She sought now her favorite bride
paths, and her heart was light with
the sweetness and peace of the spring
as she heard the rush and splash of
the creek, saw the fash of wings and
felt the mystery of awakened life
throbbing about her. The heart Of a
girl in spring is the home Of dreams,
and Shirley's heart overfowed with
them until her pulse thrilled and sang
in quickening cadences.
The groom marveled at the sudden
changes Of gait, the gallops that fell
abruptly to walk with the alterna-
tons of mood in the girls heart, the
pauses that marked moment of med
itation as she watched some green
curving bank or plunge of the mad
little creek that sent a glory Of spray
whitley into the sunlight. 1t grew late,
and the shadows Of waning afternoon
crept through the park. The crowd
had hurried home to escape the chill of
the spring dusk, but she fingered on,

dusk gave something of legendary and

Coming out upon Pennsylvania ave-

and at the wide flung gates paused
while carriage swept by him at the
driveway. He saw within the grim
face Of Baron Won Marhof and uncon-
sciously lifted his hat, though the am
bassador was deep in thought and did
not see him. Armitage struck the
pavement smartly with his stick as he
walked slowly on, bordering, but he
was conscious a moment later that
some one was lettering persistently in
his wake. Armitage was at once on
the alert with all his faculties sharp

ened his pace, and the person behind

The sensation of being followed is
at first annoying. Then a pleasant
zest creeps into 1t, and in Armitage's
case the reaction was immediate. He
was even amused to reflect that the
shadow had chosen for his exploit

America. 1t was not yet 10 o'clock,

wooded cliff. The place was perfectly
quiet save for the splash and babble of
the creek.
Several minutes passed. Once she
heard her groom speak to the horses,
though she could not see him, but the
charm Of the place held her. She raised
her eyes from the tumbling water be-
fore her and looked off through the
maple tangle. Then she drew back
quickly and clasped her riding crop
tightly. Some one had paused at the
farther edge of the maple brake and
dismounted, as she had, for q more in

He was little below her, so that
she saw him quite distinctly and
caught glimpse of his horse paving,
with arched neck, in the bride path
behind him. She had no wish to meet
him there and turned to steal back to
her horse when a movement in the
naples below caught her eye. She
paused, fascinated and alarmed by the
cautious stir of the underground.
The air was perfectly quiet; the dis
turbance was not caused by the wind.

Lots in this section of the city are rapidly increas- ng in value and should be worth at ieast @oVO III HcNy sHoft tihe, tahihS into consideration the rapid increase in values in evidence now in this great dis trict.

You should always remember that most cough and cold cures are consti. pating. Yet the most important thing to do when you have a cold Is to move the bowels. Ton cannot promptly cure cold until you do this. Kennedy s Laxative Cough Syrup stops the cough by aliaying inflammation of the throat and lungs, and it drives the cold from the system by gently moving the bow els. Children like it for it tantes nearly as good as maple sugar. Sold by Pal ace Pharmacy and United Drug Go.
 TAe old fashioned way of dosing a weak stomach, or stimulating the Heart or Kidneys is all wrong. Dr. Shoop first pointed out this error. This is why his prescription--Dr. Shoop's Re storative--is directed entirely to the cause of these ailments--the weak in side or controlling nerves. It ism t no difficult, says Dr. Shoop, to strengthen weak Stomach, Heart or Kidneys, if one goes at it correctly. Each inside organ has its controlling or inside nerve. When these nerves fail, then those organs must surely falter. These vital truths are leading druggistn ev- anywhere to dispense and recommend Dr. Shoop's Restorative.
