THE PEEvlSH CHILD
NEEDS TREATMENT

When child sulks drowsily, or is
fretful, 1t Is usually due to some slight
disorder of the digestive organs, and
mild laxative is very often all that Is
necessary to restore cheerfulness AMI
buoyancy of spirits.
In cases where the use of a gentle.
effective laxative stimuiant is indi-
Gated, many Of the best physicians are
now prescribing DR.. Caidweli's Syrup
Pepsin. This preparation is admitted
" the perfect laxative, being mild, yet
positive In its action on the bowels.
and far preferable to violent cathart-
les and purgative waters. 1t is very
pleasant to the taste and is an ideal
remedy to regulate and strengthen the
stomach, liver and bowels. Its easy,
natural action makes 1t especially de-
sirable in the case of children, a dose
at bedtime being sure to have the de-
sired result next morning, with no at
sendant unpleasantness or discomfort.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold

CHAPTER XVI.
The Kiss on the Hand.

Did ii ever occur to you" began
Enid Maitland gravely enough, for she
quite realized the serious nature OF
the impending conversation, did 1t
ever occur to you that you know prac-
tieally all about me, while l know
practically nothing about you?"
The man bowed his head.
You may have fancied that l was
not aware of it. but in one way or
another you have possessed yourself
of pretty all of my short and, until
| met you, most uneventful life,' sna
continued
Newbold might have answered that
there was one subject which had been
casually introduced by her upon one
occasion and to which she had never
again referred. but which was to him
the most important of all subjects con-
nected with her; and that was the ma
ture of her relationship to one James
Armstrong whose name, although
he had heard 1t but once, he had not
forgotten. The girl had been frank
ness itself in following his deft leads
when he talked with her about her
self, but she had shown the same re-
ticence in recurring to Armstrong
that he had displayed in questioning
I her about him. The statement she
had just made as to his acquaintance
with her history was therefore suf1-

bowed in acquiescence.

man impetuously. and then he stopped
abruptly and just in time.
Enid Maitland smiled at him in
way that indicated she knew what
was behind the sudden check he had
imposed upon himself

but a trifie to that which ragged in his
bosom. While she, left alone and de
serted, quailed within the silent room
till she heard him come back.
Often and often when she slept
quietly on one side the thin partition,
he lay awake on the other, and some
times his passion drove him forth to
cool the fever, the fire in his soul in
the icy, wintry air The struggle
within him preyed upon him. the keen
loving eye of the woman searched his
face. scrutinized him, looked into his
heart, saw what was there.
She determined to end it, deciding
that he must confess his affections.
She had no premonition of the truth
and no consideration of any evil con-
sequences held her back. She could
give free range to her love and her
devotion. She had the ordering of
their lives and she had the power to
end the situation growing more and
more impossible. She fancied the
matter easily terminable. She thought
she had only to let him see her heart
in such ways as a maiden may. to
bring joy to his own to make him
speak. She did not dream of the re-
atty
One night, therefore, month or
more after she had come, she re-
solved to end the uncertainty. She
believed the easiest and the quickest
way would be to get him to tell her
why he was there. She naturally sur
missed that the woman of the picture,
which she had never seen since the
first day of her arrival. was in some
measure the cause of it; and the only
pain she had in the situation was the
keen jealousy that would obtrude
itself at the thought of that woman.
She remembered everything that he
had said to her, and she recalled that
he had once made the remark that
he would treat her as he would have
his wife treated If he had one, there

ture of this woman was, she was not
his wife. She might have been some
one he had loved, but who had not
loved him. She might have died. She
was jealous of her. but she did not
fear her.
After a long and painful effort the
woman had completed the winter suit
she had made for herself. He had ad-
vised her and had helped her. 1t was

over: mine, mine! 1t says that every
day and hour. And yet honor and
fidelity bid me stay. l am free, yet
bound; free to love you, but not to
take you. My heart says. yes, my con-
science no, / should despise myself
If | were false to the love which
my wife bore me, and how could /
offer you a blood stained hand!"
He had drawn very near her while
he spoke; she had risen again and the
two confronted each other. He
stretched out his hand as he asked
that last question. almost as If he had
offered it to her. She made the best
answer possible to his demand. for be-
fore he could divine what she would
be at, she had seized his hand and
kissed it and this time it was the man
whose knees gave way. He sank
down in the chair and buried his face
in his hands.

Ziem Was a Tailor's Assistant, and
Worked His Way to Italy
to Study.

Ziem, sitting crosslegged on Ia

or's assistant for several years. His
life was thrown into a new channel
by the arrival in the courtyard OF an
Italian family in which there was
handsome, auburn-haired girl, who
sang as ballad singer. The father
played hurdy -gurdy, the mother made
lace, and a boy performed divers gym
nastic feats. The girl had a hne
voice. Her father wanted new coat
and asked the elder Ziem to make it

the family as dodgers. She took in
the boy and girl.
