Mrs. j. D. Palmer, SO Park ST., Am

years Of age my boy began to have fits.
They came on in the night. He would
make strange noises, stiffen out, froth at
mouth, face would twich and sometimes
turned purple. After the fit he could
not talk.
"The family physician said all he
could do was to keep them down some
what. The second physician pronounced
trouble Jeffersonian epilepsy, but could
not cure him. He suffered for six years
and before beginning the use Of DIR. A..
w. Chase's Nerve Pills had three fits
in about five days. He has taken seven
boxes and has not had the symptom of
fit since beginning this treatment five
months ago. His color has greatly i'm
proved; he is not nervous and irritable
like he used to be, and we consider his
cure most remarkable one.'

sNiDE did not return to the office.
He felt unwilling to face New
mark until he had little more
thoroughly digested the situa-
ton. He spent the rest of the after
noon about the place playing with
Bobby. Three or four times he called
up Carroll by telephone. After dinner
they sat on the porch until BObby's
bedtime. Orde put his small son to
bed and sat talking with the youngster
as long as his conscience would permit
Then he retired to the library.
Suddenly Orde leaned forward. his
senses at the keenest attention. After
a moment he arose and quietly walked
toward the open window. Just as he
reached the easement and looked out
a man looked in. The two stared at
each other not two feet apart.

manded.

as many so-called Egyptians as are

THE tobacco of the domestic Egyp-

and also Syrian, Greek, Roumanian and
Russian. All of these bear family re
semblance, which is increased by the
Sweating received in the hold of the
steamer which brings them from the
Levant to New York. In color, these
varieties range from the pale yellow of
the Roumanian to the brown of the
Odessa leaf. The yellow leaf is pre-
ferred by the Americans-the brown
by Austrians, Italians, Russians, and
Russian Jews.

from Turkish tobaccos exclusively
