CHATTER Xxlll.-contlnued.

Which wah the stronger, his love
for the woman or his hatred for the
man? If he spoke at all, 1t would be
FOR her sake, naught else. Would the
man understand that, would she?
Whatever happened, he had possessed
her; she had been his for brief hours.
Did he have the strength now to give
her TO someone else even though he
were dead? Being dead, would he
know?
The struggle racked and tore him in
his heart. He could come to no de-
cision, at least not then. What he
zgouid do later would depend upon cir.
cumstances. One thing he could do
end that was to go and find the man.
Attending to such matters as were
most pressing and taking the precau-
ttion to make his will, strange will,
at which his attorney veEtured to
demonstrate unavailingly, at last he
started on that journey across the con-
tinent in his private car. He left the
Gar at Suffolk, Virginia, and with a
motor which had been transported
with him he ran up the west side Of
the inlet until he came to the manor
house which a local guide, picked up
by the way, pointed out to him.

HIS HANDS CRACKED OPEN

II am a man seventy years old. My
hands were very sore and cracked
open on the insides for over a year
with large sores. They would crack
open and bleed, itch, burn and ache
so that l could not sleep and could do
but little work They were so bad
that ] could not dress myself in the
morning. They would bleed and the
blood dropped on the floor. l called
on two doctors, but they did me no
good. 1 could get nothing to do any
good till got the Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment. About a year
ago my daughter got cake of Cuti-
cura Soap and one box Of Cuticura
Ointment and in one week from the
time l began to use them my hands
were all healed up and they have not
been a mite sore since. l would not
be without the Cuticura Remedies.
"They also cured a bad sore on the
hand of one of my neighbours children,
and they think very highly Of the Cuti-
cura Remedies. John W. Hasty, So. Eff

mind his course, although he knew
ment that the words had fallen from
Langfords lips. He must go back, If
for no other reason than to settle the
doubt, to answer the question, to sat
isfy the wild clamor of his soul, to kill
the hope that flashed into his breast
at the others words.
His reverie was interrupted by the
arrival of a strange negro. Langford
had stopped at a village tavern, it ap-
peared, where he had procured writ
ing materials. He had paid the boy
literally to bring the note to Char
mock. The envelope was sealed. Be
meath his name was written these
words:
Gas you are a gentleman and re.
spect the request of a dead man, you
will not open the envelope until you
stand upon the island"
Never was there such a prohibition.
Never was there such a consuming
desire in the mans heart to defy
it and disregard it. Yet that vague,
intangible thing we call honor, backed
by flimsy bit of paper and paste,
held Charnoek with letters of steel.
The envelope decided him. He rose
to his feet, entered the house, sent for
his uncle, told him the story and babe
him get ready to start for San Fran
cisco that night. Whitaker and the
chaplain, summoned temporarily from
the great undertaking, Joined them at
Washington, and the little party went
rushing westward in private car on
special train as fast as steam and
steel could take them. And yet to
the heart Of the man their progress
was so slow that every hour he be-
came more frantic with impatience.
Back in the little village inn by the
roadway Langford, alone, lay dying.
A strange lawyer wrote a few letters
for him confirming a will made in San
Francisco leaving ever dollar he pos
sessed to Charnock's great undertake
ing on condition that his name be not
mentioned in 1t and that those who
cared for him might regard it as the
end of a great expiation. And so min
instered unto by a strange clergyman,
he passes out Of sight, having made
what amendment he could. He loved
much in the end, surely in the end
much would be forgiven him! Poor
Langford!

United.

OnlIGQs
How awful had been those two years
upon that island They would have
been completely insupportable had it
not been for the forethought and kind
ness of Langford. The books were not
such as she would have chosen, but
they were books, at any rate, and she
knew them by heart. OF the cloth
that he had left, she had fashioned for
herself such simple garments as were
suitable to her situation, rejoicing that
she was no longer compelled to wear
the rough, coarse, chatting grass tunics
of the past
The greatest blessing, however, Of
all that had been left to her was the
writing paper, the note books and
pencils. They had given her occupa-
tion after all other things had failed
her, for she had written down the
story of her life. Not imagining that
they would ever be seen by human
eyes, she had poured her whole soul
out on the pages. Every incident had
been gone over. Not Rousseau him
self had been franlrer In his "Confes-
slons," but here was only sweetness
and light, She had restricted her
writing to a certain number Of mo.
ments daily in order to prolong the
occupation as much as possible, and
she had carefully considered every
thing ere she put It down.
Twice daily she had gone to the
heaven.kissing hill high In the center

A Promise Broken.

It was that same late spring morn
ing when John Charnock sat on the
porch overlooking the pale waters of
Hampton Roads past Newport News
and Old Point Comfort ana the blue
waters of the Chesapeake and the
biuer ocean beyond. The motor car
was stopped outside the great gate
at the end Of the long avenue of trees
which led to the river road 1t could
have been driven in, but as he ap.
preached the house more nearly with
mis- mind still in a state of indecision,
IN order further to collect his thoughts
and because he was tired from the
Kong ride and because he would not
trespass on Charnock more than was
absolutely necessary, Langford de-
cided to walk.
Now the sight of a motor car was
not unusual and Charnock glanced at
II indifferently enough until it stopped
at the gate. He did not recognize
the tall, slender figure which came
SLOWLY up the path by the side
of the drive under the great arch
OF trees. Still as the man drew

Virginia hospitality, hospitality he
had easily learned since it was in his
blood, he descended the steps to the
terrace and would have descended far
Cher to the roadway but that he sud
denly recognized the visitor. He
stopped dead still, surprised, amazed.
Langford started, hesitRted, threw
back his head and came resolutely on.
He mounted the first flight of steps
and as he did so, Charnock turned,
drew back a little to make way for
him and the two men faced each
other upon the terrace.

at last, you of all men. What are

History of Req Cross Seal.

Charity stamps" first used in
Boston in 1862 for the soldiers relief
funds during the Civil war, were the
original forerunners Of the Red Cross
Christmas seal, which will be used
this year to bring happiness and cheer
to millions. The Delaware Anti-Tu-
berculosis society in 1907 for the first
time in America made use Of a stamp
for the purpose of getting revenue to
fight consumption. In a hastily or
ganized campaign of only three weeks
they realized $4,000 The next year,
1908, the American Red Cross con-
Quoted the first national tuberculosis
stamp campaign. From this sale 1885,
900 was realized for the anti-tubercu-
losis movement. In 1909, under many
adverse conditions, S250,00O was rea-
lized from these stamps. This year
the slogan of the tuberculosis fighters
and the Red Cross is "a Million for
