problem. Something in her pose, the troubled expires

ashamed of the brutal force with which he had pro-
tested against what he felt to be deceit. Then new,

Stella rose to her feet and faced him. Her face was

Stella laughed; her eyes softened "You mean that

Stella turned to him slowly. Her fascinating face
wore an expression inscrutable as the sphinx
Absolutely nothing she replied

Gilbert held in his a small hand, cold as ice, and
peated the words mechanically. The venerable invalid
propped among his pillows listened with eager eyes,
and one withered hand against his faint color
gowed in either sunken check.
The ceremony was concluded there low-toned

rode on in silence.

"Those were his words" answered Gilbert. OF
course he is very old man and an invalid"
" How sad murmured Stella. " His mind seemed
quite clear yesterday"
Also, he said that he thought it very good plan
for me 60 Immediately to Japan, and that until
sailed he did not think that should intrude upon your
privacy; that while gone you would have time to
accustom yourself to the idea of my being your hus-
band"
There was protracted silence.
"Then" said Stella sarcasticaly, there appears to
have been justification for my point of view after
all
"Yes" admitted Gilbert it appears that my views
were quixotic All the same am glad that told him"
Neither spoke for several minutes, then Gilbert said:

Stella shook her head, not quite trusting herself to
speak She was filled with an odd bewildering emotion
which dimmed her eyes and brought lump into her
throat Somewhat bindy she entered the vestbule and
walked towards the elevators. Her maid, who had Just
come down. passed her with shy bow and took her
wraps from the chauffeur. Gilbert relieved her OF the
necessity of speech by talking quietly on the way up

James McCabe who stands at the head

GERMS IN HER SYSTEM
Every Woman Should Read This.

The number of diseases peculiar to
woman is such that we believe this space
would hardly contain mere mention of
their names, and it is q fact that most of
these diseases are of catarrhal nature.
A woman cannot be we'll If there is trace
of the catarrhal germs in her system.
Some women think there is no help for
them. We positively declare this to be a
mistaken idea. We are SO sure of this
that we offer to supply medicine absolutely
free Of all cost in every instance where it
fails to give entire satisfaction or does not
substantiate our claims. With this under
standing, no woman should hesitate to
believe our honesty of purpose, or hesitate
to put our claims to test.
There is only one way TO cure Catarrh.
That way is through the blood You may
use all the snuffs, douches or like remedies
for years without getting more than tenn
porary relief at best Catarrh is caused
by germ. That germ is carried by the
blood to the innermost part of the system
until the mucous membrane is broken,
irritation and Inflammation produced, and
a flow of mucous results, and you can prob
ably realize how silly it is to attempt to
cure such an ailment unless you take =
medicine thar follows the same course as
the germ or parasite.
Rexall Mucu. Tone is scientifically pre-
pared from the prescription Of an eminent
physician who for thirty years made his
speciality Catarrh, and with this medicine
he averaged o8% Of cures where 1t was
employed. No other remedy is SO prop
