SO he sent the nurse to ask Sir
Thomas Ryder nee more to step up

movement born of lifelong habit, he

The sick man, on the other hand,
seemed to be outstanding his strength.
He had most o~bediently taken the
brandy which had been given him. and
now he lay back quietly among the
! pillows. With eyes closed and lips
slightly parted. The hands wandered
somewhat restlessly along the smooth
surface of the quilt. otherwise Lord
Radcliffe lay perfectly still. 1t even
saze-as If an expression of content
had settled over the pale face. Once
the sick man opened his eyes and
looked up at the portrait: the lips
murmured the one word:
"Luke!" and slowly, very slowly, two
tears orne in the sunken eyes and
trickled down the wan cheeks.
You had better" said the doctor
CURLY, leave the patient to me and to

Sir Thomas will call YOU, no doubt,

She was ready enough to obey now;
her uncles footstep was heard on the
landing outside. Quietly she relin-
pushed her place beside the bed, and
as she did so she Dent down and kissed
the poor old hand that wandered so
restlessly along the folds of the quilt.
AS SIR Thomas entered the room, she
was just leaving it. They met under
the Intel of the door.
He seems stronger" she whispered
pointing to the sick man. II think that
he Will make an effort-for Luke's

She waited a moment in the door

installed on IL side of the bed. and
the doctor on the other side, with his
finger on the patients pulse. Then she

revised PERU
nd, On the other hand, the revised
Pe-ru-na is a better remedy for some
conditions than Ka-tar-no. They are
both intended as catarrh remedies.
They have both done a great work in
relieving catarrh. chronic and acute.
Many hundreds OF cases of chronic
catarrh have recovered while taking
ka-tar-no and the same is true If the
revised Pe-ru-na during the last six
years since It's revision.
There Is a difference, however, in
che two remedies. Whenever catarrh
as associated with constipation then
she revised Pe-ru-na is the best. In
decd, this istexactly why the revision
wal made, to meet such cases. But
where no laxative is needed, where the
Bowels are regular or inclined to be
loose, then the old Pe-ru-na (Ka-tar-

CHAPTER xxx1x-(continued.)

Gradually Louisa's eyes became ac-
customed to the semi-darkness. She
liked them on the sick man who lay
quite still against the pillows, his face
no less white thai the linen against
which 1t rested. Louisa had no idea
that any man could alter SO in such
brief while. 1t almost seemed difficult
to recognize in the white emaciated
figure that lay there with the stiffness
OF death. the vigorous man of a few
nonths ago.
The face had the appearance of wax,
deep lines from the nostrils to the cor
nerS OF the moutA aecentuating it's hol-
low appearance: the hair was almost
snow-Wsiite now and chung matted and
lamp to the forehead and sunlsen tenn
pies.
Lord Radcliffe seemed unconscious Of
Louisa's presence in the room. but his
eyes We're wide open and fixed on a
spot high upon the wall Immediately
opposite to the bed. Louisa looked to
see on what those eyes were gazing
SO tntently. and turning she saw the
splendid portrait of Luke de Mount
ord painted by the greatest living
master of ~portraiture, which we all
admired In the rooms of the Royal
Academy a few years ago. 1t had been
taken away from the boudoir, and
brought in here SO that the sick man
tAAA5 ~ hhhNb <tiS III ~ II" Liza
ne was parted from the reality.
Only q feeble breath escaped Lord
R~adclyffe's parted lips: there was no
distortion In the face, and the hands
,ay still, waxen-white, against the
quilt. Louisa looked down on the sick
without. at first, attempting to
speak. She looked down on this and
the last cord of hopes broken lutte, the
frail thread on which hung Luke's one
chance Of safety: this feeble life al
most ended. this weak breath which
alone could convey words Of hope! For
the moment Louisa's heart almost mis-
gave her. e she thought of what
h meant to do: to bring. namely, this
wandering spirit back to earth, in order
to make 1t conscious of such misery as
no heart OF man could endure and not
break. 1t seemed like purposeless. in
aufnan cruelty!
Even II she could call that enfebled
mind back to the hideous realities of
-oday, Whist chance was there that the
few words which this dying man could

luke from the gallows?

ELSON'S HISTORY
AGAIN ASSAILED
Lee Camp Wants to Know If It
Is Being Used in Any
Southern School.

Renewed condemnation of Eison's
History OF tho United States, which
provided nation wide comment during
the past year when 1t was learned that
+, was being used as textbook at
Roanoke College, was tho feature of
tho meeting of tho r. L. Leo Camp of
Confederate Veterans last night. Tho
spark Of Indignation was again kindled
by tho reading OF a communication
from the headquarters OF the United
Confederate Veterans. at New Orleans.
IN which attention was called to a res
oluuon recently adopted by the United
Confederate Veterans ut Macon. Ga,
and an investigation and report ro-
quested.
The Macon resolution was as rollowp:
This convention OF tho United Con-
federate Veterans desires to place
upon record Its condemnation OF Elson's
History OF the United States THAT
such textbook should have been used
In any OF the schools OF the South is an
insult TO tho men and women of the
Southland. We believe that It should
DO repudiated by every decent repre-
sentative OF the traditions and history
OF the South, and we regret that In
the great State OF Virginia defenders
should be found who condone 1t We
urge upon all members OF tho United
Confederate Veterans to investigate and
learn II this volume is stiil used in
any OF the schols and localities in which
they reside and to take the steps nee
essary To eliminate this dlsgracefuI
volume from the uso OF the children
OF the South"
Anxious to Get Fscta.
Attorney General Samuel w. Williams
was on his feet immediately He said
that tho mere spreading of tho letter
upon the books OF the camp was not u
sufficient compliance with the spirit OF
tho letter, and that means should DO
taken to ascertain that tho book had
been everywhere repudiated. Judge
Williams, Judge George L Christian
ana Colonel w. b. Freeman were elect
ed to prepare n report to be presented
10 the next convention OF tho United
Confederate Veterans. at Pulaski. Va.
Tho convention Will be held in Septcm-
Der or October.
Judge Williams said that tho most
important duty now before the Con-
federate Veterans Is to see that noble
ana truthful memories OF the War Be-
tween the States arc preserved to pos
tcrity. He said that tho first impress
sions received by child from his
textbooks were lasting and that 1t is
