CHARACTER TELLS
THE STORYi

People throughout this country are
giving more thought to hygiene and to
the purity of remedies on the market,
but no one doubts the purity of Doctor
Pierce's vegetable medicines, for they
have been so favorably known for over
fifty years that everyone knows they are
just what they are claimed to be. These
medicines are the result of long research
by well-known physician, R. V. Pierce,
M. D., who compounded them from
health-g giving herbs and roots long used
in sickness by the Indians. DR.. Pierce's
reputation as leading and honored
citizen of Buffalo, is sufficient guaran-
tee for the purity of that splendid tonic
and blood medicine, the Golden Medical
Discovery, and the equally fine nerve
tonic and system builder for women's
ailments, DR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton. Send 10c for trial pkg. tablets to

wise. Monsieur Sazarac can go no

"Ah, welll" the young, man started

TO be under the press of the eventful
fortnight since the Seraphine fled
from the rivers mouth; the languid
arlstocrat of the sugar plantations
had flung against the steel of Mon

She would have called him and tried
TO win him from his moods, but she

could hardly fail to guess why his

sword had leaped from its sheath OF
Campeche reef; and surely the Sera-
phine had seen enough of mems PAS
sions and their blood
And Monsieur Sazarac, too, had his
moods again. He found affairs to
keep him busted, as, indeed, well a
sailor might on this man-crippled
schooner; but once, happening to
glance down the cabin skylight, with
her incessant curiosity, she saw him
there. He stood in deep thought, 1t
appeared. Then he went to the door
Of the emperOr's stateroom, and
raped upon it with his silver sword
hilt. She thought he laughed slightly
as man who had thought upon a seri-
Gus matter until it became amusing.
The door opened. She could not tell
by whom, but Monsieur Sazarac bowed
with an accentuated flourish. There
was a sardonic smoothness to this
bow; and Sazarac entered the emper-
or's chamber. The door closed, and
for an hour nothing happened in the
cabin. 1t irritated Mademoiselle Les
tron. A mystery with grim laughter
in 1t about all the blood and
death and fire of the weeks there had
seemed grimacing mirth.
Even the dying, wounded fellows,
overwhelmed by the boarding Span
iards on the port bow last night; that.
too, was jest, for If the kings men
4 hn
phine would have been theirs again.
The swords of Monsieur de Almonas-
ter and Monsieur Sazarac were the
only ones against them when they
broke back to their boats. The last
dead of the Seraphine lay in a close
row before the> fo'cas'le hood-Belu-
che, the admiral; Nez Coupe, the
riven-faced; Bohon, the smuggler; Joe
Rigo of Isle Grande; Premiere and
two others; fallen rank to which,
presently, she saw Monsieur Sazarac
carry the last-the bo'sun, Johanness.
Then the master stood bareheaded
in the sun and looked them over. He
seemed satisfied; he took a deck
broom and swept around them care
fully, as If these were a treasure
heaped on the schooner's spray-lashed
bow; and then he came aft. Made
moiselle Lestron saw that he carried
a number of shabby things. A
drenched velvet cap, broken pistol.
faded sash, cutlass and gold ear
ring from the bo'sun's head. With
these he went down the main COM
panionway to the emperors cabin,
knocked on the door and then entered.
The door closed.
She glanced at Alderman Dominique
browsing at the wheel. The Tapping
canvas, as the schooner wore off bit,
brought his eyes open.
monsieur Dominiquei What is go
ing on?" she cried.
"Eh? On2-I trust my head Is still
on-and remains so? What"
What is this play for me?" she
broke in passionately.
