I For nine years Mr. Purcell directed ��������� the Christie job plant, when in 1897 ' the concern acquired the Brandon Times, and Mr. Purcell was given the editorial charge and control of the paper.

In most of the western Canadian towns the local editor is as well known as the mayor��������� or auctioneer. In small communities it is dillicult, indeed, well nigh impossible, for the writer or publisher of a newspaper to resist! tho pressure .that persistently forces' him forward to the front rank in' local affairs. Almost always a man of intelligence, and frequently a man of ability, by virtue of his profession familiar with, and an authority on, all matters of public interest, the irresistible tendency is to compel him, sooner or later,'-to' take posi- .tions_of_^>ublic-_i:esponsi.biUty���������and trust. To be able" to continuously resist the pressure in this direction is to argue personal unfitness, personal disinclination or unusual personal powers of resistance. Mr. Purcell represents perhaps a combination of -the two latter dualities. Thoso who. know him best esteem him one of tho very best newspaper men in Western Canada. Had ho any aspirations to public odice, building of the Sun as he did aforetime to that of its competitor, and with results as apparent. His striking success in this regard having, in the smite town, twico demonstrated his capacity and ability as director of every department pf a newspaper, is a record of which any man might well be proud, and which has not been duplicated by any othor journalist in the West.

His influence is undeniable, but Is never personally everted. , When'it man is identified with a movement, whether political, municipal, or in any othor capacity bringing hhn boforo public attention, tho puper Mr. Purcell directs praises or blames, as seometh to him good, with judicious commendation or unspat'lnc flagellation, Wut, in oither case, without a trace of personal fooling, But nobody evor droarns, in Mr. I'urceU's case, of associating the man with his paper, A year or so ngo, when ho had chargo of tho Prandon Times, nobody ovor hoard tho expression "Mr. i'urcoll says so and so." It was always "I seo tho Times snys so," And, now that ho has charge of tho Sun, tho saying Is tho same. A more complete merging of the ideal liy of the man with the paper he edits it would bo dillicult to find than that of Mr. I'u reelI. 1 It need not be thought, however, that Mr, I'urcoll is an unapproachable recluse.

Then he dug savagely in the bed of scarlet gera* alums, irrespective of the plauts' good. "Why doesn't the master come home?" he demanded querulously, with the anxiety of one who had lovingly followed "the master's" life up from the days of white cotton socks and sailor collars. The trowel dropped from his hand as his eyes turned back to the tall figure in its trailing white draperies.

Ilere was the very center and core of the master's life, old Jerry knew it, and yet��������� His face changed suddenly as though an evil cloud had passed before the sun's brightness. His very body seemed to become gnarled and twisted, while the hands closed and unclosed suggestively at his sides, driving the nnlls into the hard palms. Every breath he drew was an unspoken malediction upon tho man who came through the gnteB to meet his mistress., "You're there, nro ye, ye black hearted sarpaut!" he panted. His heart seemed to die within him ns he hiensured his strength ngalnst his opponent's. With a sense of helpless iundoquncy his old figure eolltipsed tremblingly, But tlio habit of years in extremity wns strong upon him. His head fell forward reverently on his brenst. "God Almighty," be breathed, "this makes tho third time this week, nn* I dunno���������I dunno whora's Mr, Aleck!" Tho mnn ho bated was walking bareheaded besido tho mistress.

Thon he got slowly on his feet, seeming to grow younger nnd stronger ns ho did so. The blood of tho fighting raco still boat ln his veins in spite of his so verity years, it biassed in the blue eyes uuder their aluxagy brows, promising wnr to th* death boforo thoso he loved and served were injured, All that day be watched the bouse nnd grounds untiringly, His mistress bad bidden ber visitor goodby nt tbe gnto and walked slowly bnck to th* bouse n* though nil life nnd hope wore gone from her, and he saw ber no more. At midnight he Installed Johnny, Ur, Aleck's favorite groom, in his place. "Don't ye mnke no sound nor wort," ht admonished, "an' ye don't need to know whnt yer bere for, bat If ye sot anny wan goin* or eomln' call m*. An* Johnny, b'r. If ye could aunywny get word to tbe master in tbe mornin* to come home 'tis makin' yer sowl you'd be." When morning came he relieved Johnny at 6 o'clock, the hitter huvhc? seen no one "comin* or Roin'," ;mh1 air in took up his surveillance of the hoi?--e. It was dusk when at last the figure bo had been looking for camo slowly down the steps. She had almost reached the gate when Jerry, his old heart bearing in his throat, stepped ov.t on the gravel walk beside her. "I dunno if you noticed, ma'am." he said casually, to'tebiug his hat. "but I'm afraid 'tis dying the rosebush be the south wall is." She had halted, looking at him in uncertainty, bewilderment for a moment displacing the listless despair of her faco. "'Twill be ten year ago come tomorrow week since I planted it." Jerry wont on rcm'.nisccutly, "I mind well 'twns the very day the master brought ye home, ma'am. 1 can see yea now, stnndiu' hand in hand lookin' at me"��������� Her lingers had gone swiftly to her throat as if the lace there strangled hor. Jerry watched her for a moment. "An' sure there never was such a tree tor blossomin'," he went on slowly. "I used to think tbat the love in the eyes of yez both that day blessed it. 'Sure 'tis a love bush,' 1 sez to me- self. An' 'tisn't in yer two arms ye could carry the roses on it when it begun to bloom, an' they tho "sweetest that ever grew.

She moved stumblingly away from him across the grass to the south ��������� wall. Jerry scarcely breathed as he followed aud stood behind her. Oh, the wealth of blossom the love bush had onco .borne! She remembered how tho old gardener delighted to bring the fragrant armfuls to her on the anniversary of its planting���������the day that Aleck had brought her home. Now��������� She looked at the blighted, twisted leaves, clinging as if^for shelter to the wall, and a sob, which was tho upheaval of all the torture and despair in ber hwiii.^o:x>_.heii_deJ.icate���������tbi'oat._._Her_ face.-! as she turned it to Jerry was an agony. "Save it!" she pleaded. "Oh. Jerry, if it is not quite dead, save it!" "Yes, ma'am." But Jerry's voice was husky and he drew his coat sleeve across his eyes. " 'Tls safe enough she is now, glory be to God!" he added in a whisper. He stood in the shadow of the wall until sho had stolen back to-the houso. carrying the ono poor blossom of the love bush, with ���������her. Then he made his way to where beyond the grounds lay a strip of moonlit road. At sight of the figure which paced impatiently back and forth there Jerry's body was contorted again, but this time with savage triumph. "Aye," he hissed slowly, "ye may walk, nn' ye may walk ag'ln, an' ye may keep on wali-cln' till tlie feet drop off ye nu' tho DivJI gits his owu-but ye'll never git what yer wiiitln' for- an' the Lord bo, praised for lt!" It was the ono rogrot of Jerry's life thnt "he wns'in bed and-asleep that night when the master, got home.

The master had uri'lvod tit 10 o'clock, according, to Mrs. 'Riley, tho cook, nnd. to the best of, her belief, he nnd tho mistress luul talked nil night.

Susseationa For Alluring: Breokfaat* ou Snmmer Days. In summer days the, veranda should constitute a coutinuous "living room," and here may be presented at times, if not permanently, the family breakfast, luncheon and S o'clock tea. When the children's appetites begin to lag, as often happens during the summer, tho distressed mother will Ond gratifying results through offering a dainty, alluring refection on the homo porch, advises the New Idea Magazine. Suggestions for breakfast on tha veranda in summer days may be made as follows: Fruits���������berries, apricots, melons, pears, peaches, grapes, varying these frequently; cereals of light character, cooked and uncooked, dispensing with oatmeal until colder weather. Tho chafing dish may bo brought into service in presenting such features as stewed kidney; tripe, creamed or a la lyoniialse; smoked beef, cream-ad or with scrambled eggs; minced hum on toast, cro.imod codfish, scrambled eggs' and tomatoes, eggs In various forms and omelets of ham, parsley and rice. Water cress should become a staple accompaniment to this season's breakfast; crisp radishes and cucumbers may bo served too. "Popovers," light breakfast mufiins, breads, toast of en-' tire wheat bread, etc., should be presented. Where tho breakfast does not include moat, the following formula will give a nutritious, inviting, satisfying feature: Make a batter as follows: Mix a tablespoonful of butter with half a cupful of soft boiled rice; and tho yolks of two eggs, well beaten, ,and a cupful of milk; sift in next half a cupful of flour, a tablespoonful of yellow cornmeal and a vory scant teaspoonful of baking powder. Add a dash of salt to the whites of two eggs and beat to a stiff froth. Fold this in quickly and lightly to tho remainder of tho mixture. Pour into small layer cake pans and bake in a hot oven until a golden brown, which will take from twelve to fifteen minutes. Remove ono of tho layers to the serving plate, bottom sido up. Butter well over the entire surface. Placo another layer over this and butter generously as you would spread jelly on a layer cake. The top layer is to be placed top side up and also well buttered.' Cover all with a .deep dish and place iu the oven until -ready-to-be-servedi ; Toothsome Dishes With Corn. jj A toothsome baked corn pudding calTa* for one quart of scraped com pulp,. four eggs, threo tablespoonfuls of flour,, one pint of milk, one teaspoonful of salt, one-third of a teaspoonful of pepper nnd one heaping tal'.espoonful of , butter.

She produced upon rue the effect of one who by virtue of .some unique experience or natural gift beholds in all things more than is seen by the general. It is possible that I exaggerated her powers. It may be that I thought her a seeres3 because she could see through me���������no very great feat as I view it uow. One will meet in this life now and then a person who, without encroachment or the faintest suggestion of an overprompt familiarity, will display at the first meeting that comprehension which one expects only from a friend. When that person is a pretty girl, the effect is most deliciously flattering to a man whose nature, is not too gross for the perception of such matters. He longs to respond, and if he fails not blunderingly, but by a series of too small successes, why, the chances are that the poor fellow will not know when to stop trying. I didn't. The day at the golf links developed no. ^important incident.. I had a remarkably good time ���������enjoyed #everything, met strangers with an affability quite foreign to my nature, took a deep interest in golf, though it was a wholly new game to me, and in flirtation,; which was not a new game, yet different this time. Two days later f awoke with a start, not from slumber, of course, nor from any form of ���������coma, simply from ,fol- "lyT-it was a leTtWTr6Tn^yTfro!eFfliair woke me. Naturally there was not a word in it that remotely referred to Miss Lamoine, of whose existence I bad,no reason to suppose that he had, ever heard. There was no mention of' Sibyl. There^was merely the commonplace phrase, "You'll bo coming home in a day or two." Yes, I'd be coming home. A nice kind of a prodigal, I had wasted my heart. The thought went through my head,, and grotesquely I was reminded of a misreading of the Scripture committed many years ago by a fellow scholar iu the Sunday school, "And tliey killed hlra for a fatted calf." That was what I had been, just a calf, nnd killing would bo too good for me. Knowing my father's wlsheu, I had kicked up my heels, jumped the fence and fallen in love with tho flrst female of my species that had como iu my way. I sat down In a quiet comer of my apartments to think the thing over. The situation was somewhat peculiar, nnd fortunately itsee-med to Involve no misery to nny ono except myself. Beyond a doubt I was hard lilt. My head and heart were full of thnt girl. Yet I hod not made love to hor, not. tlio least Iu thc world, If I had caiod lew, I should-linvo eald moro. I had ofton done ho, liar thnt I am In common with other men. Iu the present instance thero wan not a word thut needed to bo recalled, and tho millzmloii of Hint fact enmo to ino like a Mossed mlraelo Howovor, tho girl was not blind, She occupied tho ��������� extreme oppuHlto end oif tlio scale of visual power. I counl tan ey her rending my nocrot In tlio smull- out of the flowers that 1 had oent to CuBhlug's house, whoro hIic lived. Theoretically I wis not lit lovo with hor. Lovo, lu niy way of thinking, depends upon lntlmatf* ne<|iinUltima*. I am skeptical about tho early blooming variety *y' this flower. It U usually ft wood, nnd tho thing to do j* to pull it right up by the roots. I know vory llttlo about Miss Ln- molnci. Cuahlug hnd told uio that Hho was an orphan, without n penny of Iter ,own, nnd thnt sho lived with relative! Id some small city In .Michigan. I did not cnteli tho namo of the place. I have an Inquisitive disposition and Imnw It nnd theroforo refrain from ankmir nny nnostlons except nxxclx a* aro absolutely necessary. Howovor, I usually require considerable "aforma- tion before taking importa**.* action, and fnlllng In lovo Is Important. In tn Ml** TninnlDe'n sfinrf 1n the matter, I hnd no reason to suspect tlmt Rbe cared seriously for me. It lay on my niliul tliat I had boon malting a fool of myself In o quiet. Inoffensive, gen- tlemnnly way nnd that tlio lndy hnd found tho upeetutio amusing. I was faintly suspicious that -who liked to bo nmtippd in tlmt fashion, Whether tlmt notion were true or false, tlier*������ wat an easy way of setting all things right. I <ailed upon Ml������s Lamoine that evening, and we bad a very frank and "By... Hobyard Fielding friendly talk, as it seemed to me. I confided to her that there was a very nice girl whom I had not seen in somo years, uot since her childhood, in fact, and she was now 19. She had beoa a charming child, in every way lovable, and I had no doubt that the promise of ber youth had been in every way fulfilled. Ih that statement it will be observed that 1 stuck close, to my father's word, but it sounded cold, I needed something more to meet the exigencies of the situation and to sustain my own spirits, which were getting rather low,, and so I dilated a bit upon Sibyl's merits, using that gift of easy, imaginative discourse which some harsh persons have called lying. Sibyl would uot have recognized herself had she been present,,but I felt at the moment that she could uot have helped being pleased. v My father's heart was strongly set upon the match, I said, and it wa3 a great joy to me that my memories of Sibyl* should be as they were, altogether charming and alluring. It was, of course, too much to hope that she would care for me. I could not venture to predict so fortunate an event. If Miss Lamoine would not take it as a bid for a compliment, I would say that I regarded myself as a mere; joke. The best that I could hope for was that Sibyl would think sho could enjoy laughing at mc all her life. "Make her laugh all you can." said Miss Lamoine, eying me iu her peculiar way. "Don't make her cry." "You think mo'fickle," said I stupidly, and she floored me with the gentle question: "Why should I?"

I had introduced this subject very well, considering that *l am, as a rule, awkward and oycrpreclse in beginning a new theme, though fluent enough when once fairly started. It had seemed to grow naturally out of the conversation, and Miss Lamolne'a tact preserved the scene from the peril of being too relevant. I could not specify a word or a look of hers that gave tho smallest hint that she guessed why I had given her this page of family history. And yet 1 bore away from this Interview the suspicion that she understood me perfectly and held lh regard to ray character and conduct an opinion which I would glvo much to know.

Why, for instance, -should.this handsome but somewhat tragic young man be ticketed for all lite life as an old fashioned shooting I'-on? Mr. Derringer greeted me agreeably. but he seemed not t,o be a loquacious man. Cushlng was more silent than I had ever before known hhu to be. A "quiet smoke" was what I had been invited to enjoy, and of a'certainty I bad it. The stillness became oppressive after an hour or more, alid I took a somewhat hasty leave. At midnight I .was lying in a berth of a sleeping car trying to" shut my eyes in such a way that I should not see Anna Laixioine's face looking at ine out of the dark. / dlhcovertd Hint tfc were nol. to he tthme, didn't go, Instead I spent tho bourn in n purpoi-elosfj fashion, consulting tlm������ tables with needless frequency nnd nlwnys m-lectlng a luter train.

I would rather do a foolish thing calmly than make', the .wisest possible decision by accident in a state of mental confusion. This preference for rational .conduct asserted itself strongly while I was eating breakfast on the train. Having finished the meal, I lit a cigar in the smoking compartment and sat down to "think the thing out." It is possible to be mistaken about the functions of the brain. The brain possesses a nominal authority: It is the pilot, and the heart is tho engineer. The pilot rings the bell, but lie doesn't stop the machinery. As it usually stops at bis command, he grows into the pleasing belief that he controls it. Then comes the sad and awful day wlu'11 be rings one bell to slow down, another to stop and two to back, but the wheels go on turning full speed ahead. It is no use swearing down the Tp^king^uberwy'Wieird: rf'tliSfe'f no response to the bell, talking won't mend matters. Keep cool and enjoy the smash up. It is going to bo a good ono. And hang on to the wheel. Though the craft be^ running away, you may be able to pick out a soft spot in the rocks. This crude little allegory will serve as a description of my entire day on that train. I couldn't stop the emotional part of my nature. It had never behaved so before. I had found out upon several occasions that I was becoming too much interested, and sometimes I had rung the bell a little late, but there had been no disasters. This tlmo there was one lu plain sight, right ahead. For It was a perfect certainty that If I should meet Sibyl while my heart was ln this condition I should wreck every mutual prospect of our lives. , *' It would bo.grossly unfair to her. Beyond a doubt she must know of my father's wish, nnd no stretch of modesty could blind mo to tho fact that sho must bo In Rome small degree favorably disposed toward mo. Otherwise she would have checked my father's hopes. I could uot think of Sibyl as.humbly subservient In such n matter. So far as I could remember hor at nil. It seemed to mo thnt ns a child sho had exhibited a romarkablo strength nud evenness of purpose. My father would bo the last man In tlio world to break the will or eradicate the Individuality of any child In his core. IIo was ono who would read unturo's plan and accept It for tho best, striving only to noo that It should ho perfectly carried out. Ho Sibyl would be a eld with a mind of hor own, She must remember rao, of course, far better than 1 remembered ber, I hnd changed somowluit to tlto eye, but the alteration was a vast Improvement. Bho had been n keen child hy all that my fathor used to tell mo about ber. No doubt Bho know'wo very well. It was fair to assume that I must In somo way havo impressed her favorably, so thnt sho could think of mo with no very great rebellion when my father talked of me to her. rtenlly It was hard for mo to take that view, but there waa no other. Terhaps the child remembered how I used to slug to her ono summer when I was at home for a week or two. Sho must hnvo been 10 years old then, nnd iho waa very fond of music- must have beeu, ui-ieed, to xxUxud tuy singing for two or threo hours at a stretch In tho dark drawing room of an ovenlug. It waa nlwnys dark, for the child said thnt a light spoiled mu- | ale for her. In reality she wna bain* ! ful and afraid that I would look at hor, afraid that I would see tho teara Bho shed at sentimental aongs. I wan singing heart breakers thnt lumraor, having suffered somo slight damage lo the mutter of ti young lady ivbo taar* rl������l a noi her fellow. All of which ls merely to say tbat Sibyl must hare reconciled herself to rue as a manifest destiny and tbat it would bo utterly Impossible for me to reconcile myseir to ner wnue my ueart was raging for Anna Lamoine. I should Inevitably dislike her, especially as she ��������� eould have no strong personal attraction, no charm to catch the eye. If she had possessed physical beauty, meeting her might well have set me'-right, for beauty counts at the stsrt,6and qualities are so slow. I hnd no doubt that she was a splendid woman in eail that makes a soul n'icj;fiJuminos3g���������,than. tlie dull average. My father was sure of it, and really In all tills internal struggle I was greatly Influenced''by his Opinion. If lie believed that Sibyl was the ideal woman for nie, she;probably was. That's the fact about it, and 1 never quito let go of that conviction. But that was in my head; my heart had a conviction of its own, which was that I stood upon tho verge of an awful mistake; my heart was "afraid. It said to me: "What are you doing here? Go find Anna Lamoine. You have a chance now. Why did sho run away from New York as soon as you had told ber, in effect, that you were engaged to another girl? What was it that your friend Cushing thought was 'too bad?' Don't be so modest; the girl had begun to love you, but while you're spending all this summer trying to love somebody else what will she be doing?" The result of it all was that I fell Into, a sort of panic. I lost my wits In the face of this problem for the solution of which I had no adequate data. Upon the one hand I really knew nothing about Sibyl; upon the other I knew next to nothing about Anna. I knew hot my own state. I was not in love; I was merely entranced by tho mystery of,a woman's eyes, by the sweet unceasing echo of her voice, by the witchery of a beautiful puzzle, banking as the words one hears in a dream and, waking, vainly struggles to remember. So far as j attained to any plan cf action, it seemed best to be honest, to tell my father the exact facts and then, with his consent, start off upon a quest that should resolve my doubts, A renewal of ray acquaintance with Miss Lamoine might free me from her. spell. It would require some time to find her, for I doubted -whether Cushing would give me her address if I should telegraph him' for it, and I had no other clew. By the time I had found her she might bo engaged to a multimillionaire with two steam yachts, and I could return to Sibyl with that ease of mind which the wise preserve in the midst ^ItheirllMirTfoTthTuiialfarnaUle^ I rode upon a slow train, due at 0 o'clock In the morning. My fathor met me with a carriage. He was In a cheerful mood, such as I rarely attain at. that hour in the day, and cheerfulness ls a great advantage. Moreover, my courage Is always weakest before breakfast. I dreaded our interview. We shook hands, and.I'Inquired regarding his health, which I knew to be perfect by the look of him. Thon I said, "How is Sibyl?" because the question would please him. He replied ���������that sho was very we'll nt the last report, "Lnst reportI" I echoed, pausing, with one foot on tho step of the,.carriage. "Do you mean that she hasn't come homo yet?" "Sibyl Is out of town," said bey extending a hand as If to help me up. Here was a chance for procrastination, which ls my favorite amusement. With a feeling of relief I snuk Into the seat beside hlra, and wo conversed upon unimportant topics until we reached the house. Tlio old home looked much tho same from tho street, but I found considerable changes within. Tho furnishings wero more luxurious, the'arrangement of the rooms upon tho grouud floor was different, and at tho roar u vory elegant library with a domed roof bad been added. The stairs sweep round and bring ono toward tho front of tho houso. At tho bond of them my father oponed a door. "Sibyl's sitting room," said lie. It wus u well lighted apartment, but hml a eovere look. Tho walls seemed hare, and I noted a good many heavy books on tho tablca, Tlio placo gave mo a chill. I would hnvo wlshod to too a lot of photographs all about, with protty knlckknncks and souvenirs, An eatcl stood In a corner stripped and deflate as a trellis In wlntor, and there wns not a sign of tho nrtlst'a work, I passed on somewhat hastily to my own quarters at the rear of tlio house. Tliey bad been refitted, enlarged and greatly beautified: yet all tho old familiar thlngji were there, and tlio place wni surely home. I am a cotd blooded creature, as a rule, and I was positively grateful for a touch of sentiment here. I sat down upon tbe arm of a chair and eujoyetl uy emotion. "l������ut I ha\*.u'i *tcu iuui twin* yet," said I. He.led the way. I found the apart- wonts absolutely unchanged, and remembered tbnt my mother had arranged tnetu mua many years ago. "You'ro a bit disappointed," said my father, I stored at him, "You seemed to mlis something." said be, "all through tbe borne. I noticed It" "I was looking for a picture of Sibyl.** k.iKI 1. "U It poMiliU* thut tUeie Isu't a portrait of ber anywhere*'" My father hesitated. "She's bidden them til," f/tld be at It-fcOix Poor child," said I. "It's a terrible "Sibyl's sitting room," said he. thing for a girl to feel that way about her looks. It's one of tho worst tragedies in the world." My father laughed, sweetly, softly and with great enjoyment. When ho had ceased, we looked each other in tbe eyes for more than a minute. "Respected sire," said I, "there Is a colored person in the wood pile." "Find him," said he. "Very well," I rejoined. "In the first place, let's get rid of one small mystery which is really no mystery at all." "What's that?" "You're a matchmaker," said I. His countenance took on an expression of great earnestness. "Have I ever said one word"��������� he began, but stopped because he saw that I was going to laugh. "Young people must be a good deal sharper than they were iu my time," said he. "I can't understand how you and Sibyl drew this inference. I have been very careful." "By jingo!" I cried, springing up. "She has run away from me. Sho couldn't stand the idea"��������� "No, no!" he exclaimed. "That isn't so at all. She knows as well as you do that all I desire is your happiness��������� yours and hers. If you find it together I shall be glad; if not, and yet you find it, I shall still be glad. Do I look like the stern parent of fiction? Do you fancy I would cut you off with a shil- ~lin'g'o"f"ao"^n6"Whirtlre"lcs^"for"h"er?"��������� "No, confound it!" said I. "And that's what's the matter. Stern parents are easy; they were made to be outwitted and despised. Money? We could spurn it���������at least Sibyl could, and I might pray for strength. But it is because you are so unnaturally kind, so infernally good about It. We want to be dutiful; that's the trouble. Poor Sibyl! I'm a terrible future for any young woman to look forward to. Still, that doesn't account for the absence of tho pictures. What has sho doue wltb them?" "I am under bonds," said he. ���������'But I shall see her some time. When?" "I don't know when nor where nor bow." A grent light broko In upon my mind. "She will meet mo incog.," said I. "Sho thinks I won't recognize her." "Between ourselves," said ho, "I think you have guessed lt. You see, sho got an Idea that I had revealed my wish to you. It appeared to her that my lottors to you���������which I usually rend to hor���������contained a sort of mornl suasion.

Mrs. John Myles, senior, of South Wood'slee, Essex County, Ont., is well known throughout the surrounding country because of her work, among the sick and suffering, and it was on account ot over-exertion in this regard that her health broke down, and she lay -weak and helpless, a victim of nerrous prostration. Doctors could not help her, and sho dissolved to try Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. As a result she has been thoroughly "restored, and by recommending this treatment to others has been tbe means of bringing back health and happiness to many a weakened and discouragpd suSerer from diseases" of the.nerrw.

There was also pains on top of tbe head, which caused mo much suffering and anxiety.
