 "No," Mrs. Parcher returned thought fully. "T don't think he does just now" Her gaze was fixed upon the dancing platform. which most of the dancers were abandoning as the music fell away to an interval of silence.

 "They all seem to want to dance with her all the time," said Mrs. Parcher. "I heard her telling one of the boys half aH hour ago that all she could give him was either the twenty eighth regular dance or the sixteenth extra"

William allowed the c0ldness of his faint smile to increase-tO become scornful. These poor sidewalk crea- lures little knew what seethed Inside the ulabastcr of the young Augustan noble! What WAS 1t tV them that this was Miss Pratt's last night and that he intended to dance and dance with her, on and on?
 Upon one of the posts of the gate way there rested the elbow of a con- templative man. middle aged or a lit- tie worse Of all persons having pleas ure or business within the bright in- closure he was that evening the least important, being merely the back ground parent who paid the Oills-Mr. Parcher.
 One subject was preoccupying both Mir. Parcher and William. their two views. though again founded upon one thought, had no real cOngenlality. The preol cupyiug subject was the imml- ncnce of Miss Pratt's departure. Nei- thcr AIr. Parl her HOT William forgot 1t for an Instant No matter what else played upon the surface of their at tention, each kept saying to himself underneath: This Is the last night the last nightl Miss Pratt Is going away-gOing away tomorrow"
 The unuttered words advanced trag. Ically toward the gate In the head of William at the same time that they moved contentedly away in the head of MT. Parcher. for Mir Parcher caught sight of his wife just then and went to join her as she sank weartly upon the front steps.

There is a HeEp Gf sOlace in Be ing Able to Depend Upon a
 Well-earned Reputation

For months Skagway readers hay seen the constant expression of praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and read about the good work the8 have done. What other remedy ever produced such convincing proof of merit?
 Andrew Martin, 721 F. Street, Sa- cramento, Calif., says: Exposure to dampness and bad weather at my work brought on kidnety trou- ble years ago. A steady ache in the small of my back caused me great deal of suffering. My kidneys acted toe often and that broke up my rest at night. My back was so weak and painful I could hardly stoop ever to pick up anything and 1t was just as hard to straighten again. Doan's Kidney Pills gave me more help than I had ever re- ceived from any other medicine"
 (Statement given January 15, .l916.)
 On April 10, 1917 Mir Martin added Tt has been a long time since I have needed Doan's Kidney Pills, but my faith in them hasn't changed"
