WHY 1T SUCCEEDS.
Because It's for One Thing
Only, and Hopkinsville
People Appreciate
This.

Nothing can be good for every
thing. Doing one thing well brings
success. Doan's Kidney Pills do one
thing only. They cure sick kidneys.
They cure backache, every kidney
i'll. Here is Hopkinsville evidence to
prove it.
Mrs. w. C. Davis, 500 West Sew
enth ST., Hopkinsville, KY, says:
"Mr. Davis has never had an occa-
sion to use Doan's Kidney Pills or
any other kidney medicine since 1908.
For years prior to that time he had
been an almost constant sufferer
from kidney trouble. He had in
tense pains in his back and shoulders
that annoyed him all day and pre-
vented him from sleeping during the
night. The relief he obtained from
Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at
Thomas & Trahern's, now l.. A.
Johnson & Co.'s drug store was sur
prising and gratifying. They seem
ed to act differently than anything
he had ever tried and the fact that
he has never had recurrence of the
trouble since gives him the highest
opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills."

Jessica he'd the fateful draft in her
land as she ran quickly down the
Vail and across the cleared space to
the cabin door. 1t was wide open.
Peering warily. she saw that both
rooms were empty, and, with a guilty
last glance about her, she entered. A

beneath 1t was shelf OF books. She
took one from the meager row and
opened it curiously. 1t was David
Copperfield," and she saw with kim
ding interest that heavy lines were
drawn along certain OF the pages. She
looked about her. Where should she
put the draft? He had left a marker
in the book. He would open it again
no doubt. She laid the draft between
the printed leaves, beyond the marker.
Then, replacing the volume on the
shelf, she ran from the door and has
tened back up the steep trail to the

She spoke breathlessly, in very aban-
don, carried away by her feeling. As
she spoke he had turned toward her,
his paleness flushed, his eyes leaping
up like hungry fires, devouring her
face. At the look timidity rushed upon
her. She stopped abruptly and took a
startled step from him.
He turned from her instantly. His
hands dropped at his sides. The word
that had almost sprung to speech had
slipped back into the void
II thank you for the charity you
have for me-" he said, (which I in no
way deserve. II shall always re-
member It."
She hesitated an instant, made as II
to speak. Then, turning, she went
quickly from him. At the edge Of the
bushes she stopped with sudden i'm
pulse. She looked at the bandker-
chief she held. Some tiny lettering
was embroidered IN It's corner, the word
"Jessica." She glanced behind her
he had not moved. Rolling 1t into
ball, she threw 1t back over the bushes,
then ran on hastily through the trees.
After time Harry turned slowly,
his shoulders lifting in a deep respira-
ton. The white and flmy cambria
caught his eye lying at the base of
the great knoblike rock. He went to
it, picked it up and looked. at it closely.
'Jessicap' he whispered. The name
clung about him. The very leaves re-
peated it in music. He had a curious
sensation, as if while she spoke that
very name had half framed itself in
some curtained recess of his thought.
He pressed the handkerchief to his
face. The faint perfume it exhaled,
like the dust of dead roses, gave him
q ghostly impression of the familiar.
He struck his forehead sharply with

and of deep heipiessness. Inc instant
agitation and surprise blotted the puz-
zle of his presence there. She forgot
that it was the dead Of night; that
she was In her nightgown. 1t flashed
across her mind that some near and
desperate trouble had befallen him.
All the protective and maternal In her
love welled up. She went quickly to-
ward him.
He did not move or stir, and then
she realized that, though his eyes
seemed to look at her, it was with a
passive, tranced ixity. They saw moth
ing. He was asleep.
She halted, deep compassion and a
painful wonderment holding her, feel
ing with a thrill the power she pos
sessed over him. Then, like a cold
wave, surged over her q numbing sense
of his position. How had he entered?
Had he broken locks like a burglar2
The situation was anomalous What
should she do? Walked abruptly, the
result might be disastrous. Discov-
cred, his presence there when all slum-
bered, suspected as he had been, would
be ruinous. She must get him away,
out Of the house, and quickly.
A breath of cool air swept past her,
putting out the lamp-an outer door
was open. At the same instant she
heard steps beyond the curve Of the
hall, DR.. Brent's voice peremptory and
inquiring. Her nerves chilled. He
blocked the sole avenue of retreat.

"a single way to shield him. Quiet
and resourceful now, though her
cheeks were hot, she took the hand of

a shudder ran through his frame, he
swayed dizzily, his hand went to his
forehead.
In the instant of shocked awakening

Thus she dreamed-a new day dream,
unravaged by the sordid tests of YER
ity.
SO absorbed was she that she did not
hear a step approaching over the
springy moss, a sharply broken breath
as the intruder stiied an exclamation.
She had drawn her handkerchief
across her eyes against the dancing
glimmer of sunlight. Suddenly 1t drop
ped to her lap, and she half turned.
In an instant of surprise, as Harry's
look flashed into hers, name sprang
unbidden to her lips-a name that
struck his strained face to sudden
whiteness, ringing in his ears like the
note of sunken bell. All that was
clamoring in him for speech rushed
into words.

distinctness.

said after an instant In which she
struggled for self control. "You did

His face changed swiftly. Today
the determination with which he had
striven to put from his mind the prob.

down. In the light of the charge
which had been flung in his teeth the
afternoon before, his Imagination had
dwelt intolerably on it.

Before Jessica extinguished the light
she searched in a drawer and found
her wedding ring-the one she had
worn for less than an hour. When
she crept into bed the ring was on her
finger. She had fallen asleep with
her cheek resting on it.
She awoke with a start, with a
vague, inexplicable uneasiness, an in
stinct that the night had voiced an
unusual sound. She sat up In bed,
staring Into the dark depths Of the

room was not vibrating. She listened
a moment but there was only deep
silence. Slipping out Of bed, she cross
ed the room and parted the curtain
from before the tall French window.
The room was on the ground floor and
the window gave directly on the lawn.
While she gazed there came a sudden
yellow fare Of lightning, and far dis
tant mutter Of thunder spoke behind
the hills.
Still, with the unreasoning uneasi-
ness holding her, she CROPPED to the
door, drew the bolt and looked out
into the wide, softly carpeted hall,
lighted dimly by a lamp set just at
the turn Of the staircase. All at once
a shiver ran through her. There, a
