They were standing. the painter
Jasper, and Stella. on the little stretch
Of beach that fronted the tiny village
Of Carlyon, with its cluster of rough
stone cottages and weather-beaten
church, the whole nesting Under the
shadow of the Cornish cliffs that kept
the east winds at bay and offered 4
stern face to the wild seas which so
often reared and ragged at its base.
Jasper smiled.
Il can't exactly say, SIR he an

it seemed to me just the place for our
young invalid. You like it, Stella,

a softened smile.
Stella was leaning on the old mans
arm, looking out to sea, with a far
away expression in her dark eyes.
Yes" she said, quietly; 4 like it."

from the madding crowd" remarked
Mr.. Etheridge, gazing at her affec-

however"
Il am quite WELL" she said, not so

"Ay. ay," he said, with the express

upon him when the boy was men

Stella sighed, but Jasper broke ia

Mr. Etheridge, shading his eyes and
looking up.
Eyes, it is assented Jasper. Il

she tells me, and am always in fear

The old man smiled.
You will soon have the right to pro-
sect her." he said, ghncing at the
church. Have you made all the ar
rangements?
Jasper's face flushed as he ans
wered, but Stella's remained pale and
set.
Yes, everything is ready. The
clergyman is a charming old gentle

symptoms and Home Treatment.

Gaut, the celebrated German spec
ialist, asserts that seven-tenths of the
feeble-minded and insane are the vic
tins OF kidney diseases.
Nervousness, excitability. restless
ness, melancholia. pains in the back
and head, neuralgia and rheumatic
pains, fevers, chills, scanty urine
highly colored and acid urine. burning
pains, fullness and soreness in the
region of the bladder, all indicate that
the kidneys are affected and weak
ened, needing tonic treatment.
The very beset physician should be
consulted at once. unless the patient
fully recognizes the symptoms, in
which case let the following simple, in
expensive, but reliable prescription be
used for several weeks.
Ask any honest druggist to mix one
half ounce fluid extract Buchu, with
one ounce compound fluid Balmwort
and two ounces compound syrup Sar-
sapariIla. Then take teaspoonful
after each meal and one at retiring,
drinking plenty of good pure water
between meals. This mixture makes a
splendid tonic and blood purifier.

The epidemic of typhoid fever is the
worst at present. The Wernle Or

the Reid Memorial hospital and three
at the home hospital ward.
Samples Of the water will be sent to
Indianapolis to the state board of

speaker and in a most stirring speech
declared that now was the time to
take courage and fight for the exter-
mination of the saloon.
In part the speaker said: "All the
world loves hero. Christian courage
can not only be found on the battle
field in these times, but can be found
right here at home. We should have
thanksgiving in our hearts because
we are waging war for a good cause.
Conviction is part of Christian
courage. Conviction is a product of re-
ligion, and with courage it is the real
| contribution to human life There is
always some root left in men out of
which comes Christian courage and
will make them fight for a noble pur-
pose. Action is also one of the essen
tials of courage. 1t is by action that
great deeds are accomplished. And in
\ this battle it will take action to be vic
torious. Let us all quit marking time
