CHAPTER XIII (continued.)
Their hands unclasped. the door
was shut, and the carriage rolled
away.
AL the bend of the drive Mrs. Lane
ing leaned forward and waved her
hand out of the window
Katherine stood minute or two
and watched the carriage roll out OF
sight. The ar was fragrant with the
scent of spring, laden with the whis-
pers of thousand unseen blossoms.
From where she stood she could see
nothing save the lawn and the mass
of newly garmented trees. Only lit
tie while before it had been easy to
see the entrance gate; now all was
blocked out by that fresh shutter OF
golden-green foliage.
Turning at last, she walked slowly
through the hall. Mr.. Brenton had dis
carded his usual corner, and had TAX
en- his books out into the sunshine.
She could hear the children laughing
and singing beyond. Their mother
had given each a little parcel as she
had gone away. 1t seemed to kath-
crime as if she had shirked taking
farewell of them
The girl was glad to be alone for
little while.
Dennis was with the children. Mrs.
Brenton had vanished
! Katherine Granger walked to and
fro slowly in the afternoon sunshine
She wore no hat, but her head was
we'll protected from any chilly breeze
by the splendid thickness Of her hair
A curious longing possessed her al
this moment to follow Camilla, and
urge her to come back to Yelverton
She could not quite understand the
reason for this protracted separation
'There seems to be something
more, something new" she said tc
herself. BY that she meant thai
there was something more than thai
lack of sympathy with the man SHE
had promised to marry that was actu
ating Mrs. Lancing in all her move
ments now.
What is the use of my being hap
py?" Katherine asked herself sudden
ly. "if / cannot assure happiness t.

And half impatiently she asked her

The children came running up t
her to show her their latest posses
sions, and then she had to greet Den
mis-, who seemed to be delighted t
be where she was.
Its a real Joy to be here, miss" sh
said to Miss Granger; but didn't
tell you what 1t was going to be whe
you first came? Just look at them tw

'Im sorry to hear you have nc

CLIMBERS KEEP GAMES,

s'T don't believe for a minute flsat anything will be done in regard to talk ing the Memphis games away from us. D said Manager Ryan last night. lover in Memphis never at any time had more than fourteen naen-Baxter was aIready suspended by Judge Kanan- augh's own orders and several days ago wired President Chambers to notify the league that had asked for waivers on Stackpole and Helm.
 When Bergman reported let Ross Helm go over to Hot Springs gith Baxter--this left me ten men with Bliss playing first base. Van Anda, CrfstL Bergman and Thomas doing the piteh. ipg making fourteen men.
 When Baxter was pat hack in the game Bliss became ono of the pitching stan and with Thomas made exactly fifteen men.
 T was asked by a newspaper man in Memphis if I intended to protest the game that Redmond played .n and my answer was that did not--that I was down here to win ganiea by riaying ball, not to get them on protests. In Little Rock told Judge Kavanaugh exactly the situation in Memphis and the number of men that I had at that time, and he argued with me that in that event was within the limit.
 Judge Kavanaugh has a reputation in the baseball world of being one of the powers of baseball, and past events have certainly shown that ne deserves every word of it. Jie is too level needed and has too great q reputation in the baseball world to do anything about taking the games from me and I firmly believe that the whole matter will be dropped"

 But 1t was Mir. Eilenberg's own com position the Air de Ballet which inl- pelled the audience to spontaneous ap- plauee approaching an ovation.

 The performances of the pupils dun ing the evening recital were marked with that excellence which has always characterized the work of the Conserv- atory. Each performer displayed a command of her instrument to which the eonaDesition rendered was made subjective, and the playing was artistic and indicative of the musisian through" out.
 Remarkable was the work of Mir. LIndner's pupils upon the violin. Never before ia this state has such excellent playing marked a musical recital. A notaworfhy fact ts that MT.

 TONIC TREATMENT
A Cure 6r Andernic Condition That is Shouting Remarkable Proo6 of Cures in Stub
 born Cdses

When the body becomes run down. either as result of over.work, worry or q severe illness, an examination of the blood would show 1t to be weak and watery This condition is called anae- mic, which Is the medical term for 'bloodless. The common symptoms are paleness of the iips. gums and checks. shortness of breath and pal- pitation of the heart after the slight est exertion. dull eyes and loss of ap- petite. Anaenia Itself is q dangerous disease and 1t may gradually pass into consumption. It must be cured by treating its cause. which is the poor condition of the blood. The vital fluid must be made strong and healthy there by enabling it to carry the necessary nourishment to every tissue of the body.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills are the greatest builder of rich. new biooe and they have been curing anaemia and other blood diseases for nearly . gem sration. during which time they have come to be recognized an an invaluable household remedy.
 Mrs. J. F. Hayden of 24i Decatur Street. Corning. N. r. whose husb and is foreman in The Symington Bridge shops, was cured by this treatment. She says:
 When I was about 1s years old, began to be troubled with anaernia and suffered from 1t for years. About three years ago I had the measles and after that the anaemia was worse. I couldn't walk any distance without being i'll. was dizzy nearly all of the time and would often faint away after the least exertion. was very pale and thin, black specks noated before my eyes. and I had sick headaches. poor diges- tion and no strength or ambition.
 T took treatment from our family doctor and two other physicians. but with no relief; Then ! tried several different medicines, giving each fair trial, but was not cured. My husband then suggested that try pr. Williams Pink Pills.
 "sfx years ago he had become so nervous and rundown from his con- fning work that he had been obliged to give up. He was sick for year when he gave up all other medicine and tried pr. Williams Pink Pills and was cured.
 T bought several boxes of the pills and they benefited me almost from the first and in time cured me For . year and half I have been perfectly we'll. am strong, have good appetite and can sleep well"
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills have cured diseases due to impure or watery blood that have bafied the best medical skill. contain the elements necessary 10 make new and pure blood. Rheumatism. ehlorosis. after effects of the grip aad fevers, are some of the biood diBeases cured by these pills and. as the health of the nerves depends upon the purity of the blood. Dr. wiiliams' Pink Pills are useful in such nerve diseases as neuralgia. nervous debility. sleepiess- ness, dizziness and even loconaotor ataxia.
 pr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will bo sent. postpaid. on receipt of price. 30 cents per box: six boxes for s2.50. by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company. Schenectady. ". r.

The program comprised an ad- nirabIy selected ran,ye of competitions the rendition of which served to demonstrate in the instructors Q gen. ical receptive capacity, which combined made this recital of the conservatory the most successful in its history. The performance of the Montgomery Symphony Orchestra in the evening transcended all expectations. and. with certs still fresh, these expectations rested upon a lofty pedestal of pleas urabIe anticipation.
 The orch estral concert represented the supreme effort of Montgomery nau- sicians, and while, as Robert Eilenbers gracefully intimated. by gesture, m responding to the enthusiastic applauee bestowed upon the performance great praise is due the individual musicians, nevertheless to the director must De Into . whole 50 harmoniously efaciett the component parts that are essential to orchestral perfection.

Eight grand pianos were used in con- the first time in the history of the south that such large number of grand pianos has been So utilized, and as the stirring strains of the first mum Der filled the theatre with its harmon les the added volume contributed by this arrangement became most effective in emphasizing and intensifyng the theme of the composition.

Already plans have been suggested to introduce some street pageant in the way of { Mercnants Day when floats will pass
 The brilliant success achieved by the Brenau might be regarded as phe- nomenal when the fact is considered that the institution had been a signal failure previous to their assumption of of building improvements and matri- culation has exceeded the expectations or the most hopeful citizens.
 Announcement has been made that ington, Ga. has been selected as prin- cipal of the Alabama Brenau for next year The selection of an especial prin- eipal was made necessary on account of the rapid growth and importance of the school and the inability of Profes- sors Van Hoose or Pierce to give their entire attention to 1t, and at the same stitution.
 Professor wiIkerson and his family VIII soon move to this city to make It their home and will receive warm welcome from the citizens.
