my little daughter who was

IS now entirely we'll after taking
DR.. Miles Nervine only four

MRS. C. G. BENNETT,
Alma, Mich.
Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus'
Dance and Spasns, are all nerv-
Gus diseases. They have been
cured in so many instances with
DR.. Miles Nervine that it is
reasonable to conclude that it is
almost sure to cure you. With
nervous diseases of a severe
type, persistent use has almost
invariably resulted in complete
cure or lasting benefits, worth
many times the cost of the rem
edy. The best evidence you can
get of its merits is to write to
those who have used it. Get a
bottle from your druggist. Take
it all according to directions, and
if it does not benefit he will re-
turn your money.

The key had fitted, the bolts had
been drawn on the inside, and, while
the key had been one of ordinary pat

efectual with any one Of a hundred
common locks. the finger Of probability
seemed to indicate that his luck had
brought him back to No. o.
In spite of all this. he was sensible
Of little confidence. Though this were
truly No. 8. his freedom still lay on
the knees Of the gods his very life, be-
like, was poised. tottering on a pima
Gle Of chance.
In the end, taking heart Of despera

shoes, precaution which later ap-
pealed to his sense of the ridiculous
In view Of the racket he had raised In
entering, but which at the moment
seemed most natural and in accord
ance with common sense. Then. ris-
ing, he held his breath, staring and
listening. About him the pitch dark
ness was punctuated with fading
points of fire, and in his ears was a
noise Of strange whisperings.
He went forward gingerly. feeling
his way like a blind man on strange
ground. Ere long he stumbled over a
doorsill and found that the walls of
the passage had fallen away. He had

the other unless Kirkwood had drawn
rash inference from the incident of
the ragged sentry. The two of them
were mutual If antagonistic trespass-
ers. Neither would dare bring about
the arrest Of the other. And then-and
this was not the least consideration to
influence Kirkwood-perhaps the fell
low would die If he got no attention.
Light upon the subject, actual as
well as flgurative, seemed to be the
FIRST essential. His mind composed.
Kirkwood set himself in search of It.
The floor he was on. however. afforded
him no assistance.
After some momentary hesitation he
went upstairs, his ascent marked by a
single and grateful incident Halfway
to the top he trod on an object that
clinked underfoot and, stopping. re-
trieved the lost purse
The rooms on the second floor were
bedchambers, broad. deep, stately, In
habited by seven devils Of loneliness.
In one, on dresser, Kirkwood found
a stump Of candle in a china candle
stick. The two charred ends of
matches at its base were only an irri-
tating discovery, however-evidence
that real matches had been the mode

Disguised and oppressed by cumula-
tive inquisitiveness. he took the can
Ole end back to the hail. He would
have given much for the time and
means to make more detailed inves-
tigation into the secret Of the house.
Since his latest entrance his vision
had adjusted itself to cope with the
obscurity to some extent, and the street
lights, meagerly reflected through the
windows from the bosom of a sullen |
pail Of cloud low swung above the
city. had helped him to piece together
many detail Of decoration and fur
nishing. alike somber and richly dig
