''Daisy Brooks," Etc, Etc. | Continued from last week. Frederick advanced to meet her with outstretched hands, yot with a pale, anxious face. "Mark Forrester lias sent for you, xny darling," he said, hurriedly. "I never know that you Tcnew him. Oh, Helena, my darling?." he cried, "aro you the young- girl whom Hark Forrester once loved? He once told me that he had loved arid lost her whom he loved, but no names were mentioned." Helena's white lips opened, and sho fell half fainting upon his breast; but tn that moment of suspense the dead Whiteness of lier lovely face and tho terror of her dark pathetic eyes had answered him, yet she breathed a piteous, quivering: "Yes."- Silently they wo Iked together down the long corridor, pausing before Mark's room. They heard a faint voice crying: "Is she coming? I can not die until I have seen her. Oh, Helena! rny lost Helena!" She turned faint and cold when she heard the sound of her own name, and tlie tone of appeal in which it was uttered���������then, with a terrible effort at self-control, she dropped Frederick's arm, and entered the dying man's presence alone, advancing silently to tho bedside. A woman, heavily veiled, with her back toward the door, bent over the couch, while Mark's eyes were raised to the muffled figure with strange in- tentness and interest. Was it fancy, or did Helena hear her whisper rapidly, and in a voico strangely like Vivian's: "In the way I have pointed out to you, your dearest hopes would be realized. She would be yours, and you could solemnly enjonT"lTe7~~up~oir the brink of the tomb never to wed another." A shivering gasp from Mark Forrester's pallid lips answered more clearly than aught else could have done that the strange words that fell from her lips had struck deep root in his heart, lie caught eagerly at her subtlo meaning. Helena advanced tremulously toward tho bedside, and the heavily veiled figure drew suddenly back. Yes it was Vivian���������her bitterest foe ��������� who had vowed to part Frederick and her. "Beware of my vengeance!" she hissed, as sho passed tho startled girl. Tho noxt instant Helena was alone in tho room with Mark, pale, stunned, ancl bewildered. "I am here, Murk," sho said, faintly, advancing hesitatingly toward his bedside. "What do you want? ' Ho held out his hands with a pa������- Bonato cry: "Holona!" Ho was dying. She knelt by hiu bodslde, and with tears in her dark eyos took tho cold, trembling hand* of tho poor young artist, who had loved her so madly and aU in vain.

"Oh, my love," he sighed, "listen, to ine. Some men have many loves ���������T love but you; some men have worshiped many fair faces ��������� I have worshiped only yours. ln you were centered all my hopes, my ambitions, and dreams of a brilliant future!" "Oh, Mark, you frighten me," she sobbed, piteously. "Oh, Mark, I am sorry, sorry, sorry!" and tears fell like rain from her dark eyes upon the hands that clasped hers so closely��������� she fancied she could hear the throbbing of his heart. His voice died away "in a husky whisper, cold beads of perspiration stood out upon the white 'ace lying back against the pillows. Oh, how she pitied him, pitied him with all ,the anguish of her young heart; yet from lier white lips came only the -words, "Poor Mark���������poor Mark!" "Helena," he moaned, his tremulous voice dying away tb a quivering'whisper, "I will tell you tho great wish of my heart���������the wish that held my fluttering soul back from the shadowy valley of death until you came to me. It is this, Helena, that now that I am dying, you will keep your vow to me; that the last words my lips shall utter will bo these: 'God bless you, my love that I have loved so well���������my sweet young wife.' " A low cry broke from Helena's lips. The room seemed whirling about her. The startling words ut- ~TerTd^o���������~s^TemTriy���������by���������t-h^t���������d-j4������g~ voiee seemed to echo and re-echo through the room with a! pathos that was pitooucily touching. "Remember I am dying, my beautiful Helena," he sighed, "ana within the hour you will be free���������free as you are now, and I shall have left1 on earth���������my wife.

Frederick Castleton could not find words in which to answer her. His very heart seemed chilled with the presentiment of coming evil. Against his better judgment and the voice of warning that rang through his brain he allowed himself to believe that no harm would come of it, he listened to Helena's pleadings. He consented with a bil ter groan and then bent down and kissed the lovely 'ace that was to belong to .another ior a few brief, fleeting moments���������kissed her and turned hastily away. The minister had arrived and was standing book in hand at Mark Forrester's bedside. Prudence bent over her poor brother, weeping bitterly. Eleanor Kirkwood had followed Vivian Cameron's example and left tlie hotel. She had loved Mark too well to stand silently by and see that solemn death-bed marriage, while Frederick Castleton paced his room with a thoughtful brow, battling with crudest forebodings. The minister was waiting patiently- Why did Helena linger? Mark Forrester asked himself, breathing heavily. When sho had parted from Frederick in the corridor, with that solemn kiss, and, .white and stunned, groped hor way slowly back to her own room, she had run directly into the arms of thc old sailor, and she noticed with a gasp of terror that he held in his right hand the written confession of her life ��������� the confesr sioh that she had believed to be locked safe in her own room. "Come into tho. drawing-room," he said, in a voice hoarse with emotion. "I have something to sny to you. You may thank fate for,sending this terrible sheet into my hands instead of Frederick Castlctin's. T have read it from beginning to end." White and trembling, Helona followed him and sunk down piteously on her knees before him. "Spare me!" she gasped. "Oh, kind sir, whom I have never harmed, I beg of you give me one day's respite before the world knows that I have been guilty of such a deception.' 1 Avould blot out tlie-past with my heart's blood if I could do it.

"Calm yourself, my dear Miss Cameron,'' returned the old sailor, "Never plead for pardon unless you are quite sure that you have committed somo fault." Like one da/zed Helena, gazed up into the sunburned mee. Could he talk to her like that if he had road the piteous confession through -- knowing what she had stolen ��������� a dead girl's name and home? How strange it was that he did not turn from her with contempt. "Mitis Cameron," he said, tremulously, "thoro are many lives that are much more romantic than the stories we read of. Yours has boon, it seems, and the strange working' of fato in your case has boon truly wonderful���������yos, marvelous I" Helena stood boforo him, whito as a marblo statuo, in hor despairing agony. "How strange that Fate should put into your hands���������of all porHona te the wide, wido world���������tho proofs of littlo Ollio Cnmoron's birthright ���������and, stranger still, that tho great longing should fill your soul to go to Cameron Hall, as Ollio, tho long- lost heiress���������tlio squire's lost darling.

It had slipped between the pages of an ; old log-book, whero it had lain long j years." Ho produced it from his pocket as he spoke, placing it in Helena's ice- cold, quivering hand, and she read, engraved upon it, the name of the babo the old sailor had rescued��������� the name was Ollie Cameron. "But to return to tlie child and the thrilling sequel," ho said, hurriedly. "I took the baby, whose name I thought then would never bo revealed to pio, to my brother rind his daughter who attended a lighthouse, on tlie coast of Maine, and he brought her up as his own child. My brother's name, was John Heathcliff, and his daughter Agnes named tho litto child I brought to them Helena. Yes, thoy called the baby, whose true name was Ollie Cameron, Helena HeathclilY." A cry that was scarcely mortal broke from Helena's lips���������a cry that brought tears to< tlie old sailor's eyes, which he turned hastily away to conceal. "Oh, Father in Heaven, can it really be true?" she gasped, "i��������� oh, can I really be���������Ollie Camoron, the truo daughter of the dear old squire? I am bewildered. I am dreaming, dazed!" "It's tho gospel truth, my dear!" cried the old sailor, laughing and crying harder than ever; yon see it was the hand of fate that delivered- over to the rightfuli heiress those papers, dates and records. Your heart prompted you to call yourself Ollie Cameron and fly to Squire Cameron's arms as his long-lost daughter, ��������� for you were, although unknown to yourself, just what yeu represented yourself to be���������Ollie, the squire's lost heiress." The startling revelation had been like an electric shock to Helena; the proofs were clear enough now. Heaven bo praised, she had been guilty of no crime then, no heartless fraud, no taint of sin. Now she realized wdiy she had loved Squire Cameron so fondly; she herself was Ollie, his own child. s "Now that you know you have be"jn guilty of no sin,- that you havo not taken a dead girl's name,.as yoi 1 hrase it in this honest little con- -fessskmr���������swppese���������av������-4-w&���������up���������this, littlo fiction that luckily fell into my hands?" and as he spoke;he-tore tho paiior into shreds,'laughing heartily at the tears cif joy ihat poured down Helena's face as she gladly con- .sented. Onco more, as in the days of old, she could look the world fairly, unflinchingly in tho face; there was no sting of accusing conscience to stillo now. Heaven be praised, sho herself was Ollio Cameron, and now she knell at the feet of the tlear old sailor to whom she owed her. litp and her fair namo and fame���������knelt t\t his feet and kissed thoso brown, weather-beaten liaiidg with a joy too deep for words! "I"never saw the baby Helena but once or twice after I left hor with my brothor, ond that was whon you ���������wero but a woe maiden; but those oyes of yours haunted mo when we ���������were out on the wild sea waves watching for tho sail that camo not to our rosciie, I thought thoro was flomothing -strangely familiar about thoso groat, babyish dark eyes and soft, curling locks lying on that whito forehead." It was the most solemn marriage that ovor was witnessed, Tbo boautlful young girl, in hor dress of snowy whito���������palo, freshly gathered buds upon hor throbbing breast and twined among hor soft brown curls ���������with hor littlo, cold hand chuspud lightly by tho dying lovor, whose ���������yos nover for an instant left her lovoly face.

Llko ono in a dream, Helena lifted hor head, brushing tho dark-brown curls from her white faco with hor trembling hands. Had sho heard aright, or was her senses playing her false? "It is quite truo," repeated tho doctor, cheerily, "I am pleased to tell you that your husband-will live. He needs rest and quiet now," ho continued, "and after a good sleep there will be a great improvement in his condition. I will watch alone by his bedside an hour more." In the corridor outside stood Frederick Castleton with a faco as pale as death. He hurried forward and took Helena's ice-cold hands in his. "Oh, my darling," he cried, "you are his wife, and thoy tell"me now that he will live. Oh, Helena, my darling, is it true?" Solemnly she raised her great! dark eyes'^p his face, and these two who loved fdach other so well and who were to have been wedded so soon stood looking into each other's face with a blank, awful look. He read his answer there, and thoy both knew that the hand of fate had torn thom as completely asunder as though one of them lay in the grave. "Mark will live!" she answered, slowly. "Oh, Helena, Helena!" he cried, hoarsely, "do you know what that means for you and me? Not that I regret that life has been spared to him; but why did I ever consent to that maddest of all mad marriages?" he groaned. "Oh, my darling, my darling! can you realize What this means for us? Our lives are ruined, shipwrecked!'. You who were-so-soon to have been my beloved bride mar- ~wed���������to-auotliCE-���������Xoji_jvjhjiJj3A^_jma__ as dearly as I* love" you bound to another for life. Oh, Heaven, Helena, the very thought of it drives me mad; yes, mad! My heart is sick. He can not hold you to that .marriage vow wrung from your lips, he shall not." "I am his wedded wifo," replied the girl, despairingly. Frederick Castleton grew desperate. In that moment his life seemed to undergo a great change, all that was truo and noble in his heart seemed to wither before the (iorco heat of his great, passionate lovo. "Yes, his wife in name," he whispered, hoarsely; "but we must, change all that. You must fly with mo away from here at onco. A divorce can be obtained, and then, mv darling, I can claim you. You shall bo my wifo." Holona recoiled from him as though ho had struck hor a fatal blow. Fly from tbo man sho had woddod but an hour beforo? Seek freedom through a divorce court? Could it bo Frederick Castleton, whom sho had believed to be tho soul of honor, counseling lier thus? "I am Mark's lawfully woddod wifo, Fredorick," nhn said. f-olomnly, "his wifo 'until death do us part,' the minister said; and though a divorce court separated us, in tho eyes of Cod I would stiii bo his wife," sho added, shuddering. "I think I have need to cry out to i'Toavon for imtleiice," ho said. "I nm not speaking harshly to you, J lovo you too madly to think calmly of loning you merely to humor a conscientious whim on your part, You must leave Mark Forroater at t.nce.!" ho criod, "You. shall not wreck your own life ami mine, ' it would bo cruel to me, Can noil her I niyiTK nor ent real Iih move you?" "it Is as cruel to myself as to you," responded Helena, "It Is harder for me to say this to you than for you to hoar It, Fato has given mo to Mark, and thoueh both rf our hearts break under lhe stent decree, you and 1 miiat part, Frederick." "T will not hoar you," ho cried. impatiently; "I will not listen; I will claim---take you from bin very arms!" Iliu ane'er overpowered him.

TuUu IIuU'n Family PUN for conntlpiitlon, The November number of the Colo-'] izer, published in London, England, has the following, which is extremely interesting owing to the fact that it narrates probably the last deed in the long and pleasant history of the late Dr. Barnardo: A further party of boys and girls from the late Dr. Bar- nardo's homes (the fifth of the present year) left Paddington early in October for Liverpool on their way to Canada. The party included 91 boys and 88 girls, who represented six of the different homes and agencies of the institutions; 28 older lads, regarded as a portion of the same party, left last week, so that this autumn party of emigrants numbered 207 in all. All had been originally selected by Dr. Barnardo before his final illness, and the arrangements were made under his supervision. The total number of emigrants sent out by the homes is now brought up to 17,471. Dr. Barnardo claimed, on the strength* of official statistics from the Dominion, that 9S% per cent of his boys and girls had proved successful when placed out beyond the seas. Each emigrant costs $40 for traveling outfit and ocean expenses.

He Has a Genius for Freedom, Yet is Fettered by His Past. Within a week two items of great importance to the Jew have been flashed around the world. One was the extensive preparations made for the celebration, on November 25th, of the 250th anniversary of the settlement of the Jews in America. The. other related to the massacre of Jews in Odessa, a massacre which proved to be worse in its horrors than even the one at Kisheneff some time ago. The Jewish people is one of the tragedies in history.- Across the race still flits the shadow of that scene on Calvary. To all, except men of the Anglo-Saxon race, he is hounded, outraged and despised. It is said that there are 11,000,000 Jews in the world, of whom 1,500,000 are in America. The Jew is more numerous than in his greatest days. Without a country, an army or a common language; without the possibility of combination, he is, in control of the world's financial doctrines, a perpetual witness to the truth of his own words, "The race does not always go to the swift, nor the battle_jo the_ ItTCngT" T!fls"Ts one view 6t���������nTm~. Another is. seen in Odessa. There his home is sacked, his womeji and children outraged and killed. The bombs manufactured for use in the Japanese war are exploded in Jewish quarters until the number of Jews killed and wounded is estimated in thousands. Scenes are enacted that would take an artist to picture and a poet to describe. It is the honor of the Rusian Jew that causes his hatred by the bureaucracy. The hate ls born of fear and the fear out of the knowledge that the Jew has an active brain and Is too intelligent to he genuinely loyal to a bestial autocracy. He has a genius for freedom, yet he is fettered by his past. This world owes a great debt to the Jew. Its literature Is saturated in his literature. Its civilized laws are founded on his laws. Men give thanks ln the words of the Hebrew poet; in adversity they deliver their souls In Hebrew lamentations; one day In seven believers and sceptics In every country rest or make merry according to the decrees of Moses; tho rainbow still brings to tho minds of all lands tho Jewish story of the creation nnd the flood; tho conscience of civilization has beon moulded In n Jewish school. Tho Jew is stll tbo great broker of ideas anil ho is still tho despised of mankind. Strange contradiction, yet a fulfilment of the sayings of tho prophets. To make the best Bread you must have the best Flour.

"Yes, Williams ia considerable of a fellow out thero. He's attorney general of the state." "Who, Williams? Attorney gene ml? Well, I'll be !" ejaculated thy conductor.

For Croup And Bnsist on Having the Time-Test������^ Medicine Dr. Chases'Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine It is not a question of whether you will need a treatment for coughs, colds and croup in your home, hut the question is, will you select the most effective medicine, or simply be satisfied to take whatever your druggist happens to hand out to you? Time and experience have proven that you can depend on Dr. Chase's Byrup of Linseed ancl Turpentine at such times. It is only necessary to remember this when the critical time comes, and to insist on getting what you ask for. Should you have children who are subject to croup, you had better keep a bottle of Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine in the house, for when the choking spasm comes on there is little time to send for doctor or medicine. Mr. Wm, McGee, 49 Wright Ave, Toronto, Out., writes: " There is no remedy in my opinion that can act more promptly than Dr. ���������j Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine. It cured my son of croup, ��������� absolutely, in one night. We gave him ! a dose when he was black in the face with choking. It gave him instant relief and cure." It seems scarcely necessary to dwell on the merits of Dr. , Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine as a cure for croup, bronchitis, whooping cough, etc. most of us have known it from childhood - up. It is almost as familiar as Dr. Chase's Receipt Book. Being pleasant to the taste, it is readily taken by children. Because it brings quick relief to the sufferer from asthma, bronchitis, whooping cough ancl all the most serious diseases of the throat and lungs, it is invaluable as a household medicine. 25 cents a bottle, at all dealers.

SLOC'JM, Limited, 179 King Street West, Toronto, Canada The wireless telegraph may owe its chief practical success to the difficulty of stringing wires and laying cables in remote corners of the world. There is now a long-distance wireless service between Nome and St. Michael, in Alaska, and it. is claimed by the American signal service officers to be the only longdistance Avireless service in the world regularly operated as a part of n tolpgrnnh system handling commercial business. On August 6, 1904, it completed a year of uninterrupted service over its' course of 107 miles. It. has handled daily and uninterruptedly the entire telegraphic business of Nome and the Seward Peninsula, which, together with the official business, averaged several thousand words daily. More than a million words were sent during the year, many thousand being commercial code words, in which no error has ever been traced to this section. In a single hour there have been transmitted over this section 2.000 words without an error or repetition. A military telegraph expert was retained at Nome throughout an arctic winter to insure continuity of operation and the successful training of the enlisted force, During the year there were 134,030 messages, besides considerable free official business. It was deemed proper to relieve the isolation of Alaskan life by furnishing daily the approved news bulletin to" each'military post and station, and by granting a." strictly limited use of the line to intercommunication on social subjects between the different military stations. While this link in the service has been established mainly to relieve the isolation Of life in the mining and, military camps of Alaska, it has served' to show that ihe system can be made a mechanical and commercial success. We need not wait for tho perfection of transatlantic signalling before installing wireless''apparatus for difficult links of telegraph communication.

This will give tho fool killer a chance to meet you early in tbe game and club, some common sense into your head. I like to see a young man starting out witb his bat on bis ear, a cigar ln tbe corner of his mouth and a know It all expression on bis face. Tbat young man has got something coming to bim, ancl. when be gets it be will crawl into a knot bole for a month and tben come out pretty well cured. When I was twenty years old I could cut every sort of pigeon wing on l young man wbo mixes tbem up gets when he saw that by denying himself credit for neither. He is simply rated for awhile longer he might make the as an ass. experiences and hard knocks he had There was a time in the history of gained count for more than a mere liv- the world when a man could become Ing.

One or two persons remarked that I was born for auother Henry Clay or Daniel Webster. What the other ten thousand remarked I did not bear until I got over my big bead, and it didn't flatter me at all. At the ago of twenty-two I should have run for the legislature and owued tlie earth but for a trifling circumstance. I; who knew so much aud had encircled the globe fourteen times to study human nature, didn't know enough to be sure that when a mule began to twist his tail he was ready to kick with both hind feet nt once. I took the twisting to be a sign of collo and didn't learn my mistake until both hoofs hit mo. I hnvo ever been grateful to that old mule. He stopped mo short In my mad career and has kept mo off tbo thin Ice many a time since. I hnvo ovon had the sense to decline tho honor when asked to make a spooch before a ward caucus, , My son, It looks as easy as falling oft a log to start In nt twenty and bo tho biggest toad In tho puddle at thirty, but that's whoro you got deceived.

The self reliant mnn Is inro of sue- ��������� comb, but there is a heap of difference great by writing poetry or painting pictures or bringing forth new facts in science. If-that state of affairs still existed I should advise you to try one of these lines, but the past flfty years have changed things about. Our poets, painters and scientists have mortgaged their household furniture to keep out of the poorhouse, and tbe man with a new brand of chewing gum bas bought out their manor bouses and is riding in thoir carriages. Tbo thing today, my sou, is to get rich as fast as possible. Tbe popular idea is that when you bave got a riiil- lion dollars together old Plato or Cicero isn't in it with you. There are several ways of getting rich. If you and two or three other fellows can corner all tbe pieplant in the country the rest of us will bave to come to your terms. All you bave to do is to forni a trust and begin squeezing the people. No matter what,yon invest in you can rob the people with impunity. You can laugh at tbe newspapers, sniff at tbe people and turn your back.to the law in contempt. What I was going to advise was a little different course���������tbat is, do your robbing and plundering in a more honest manner. Tbere are hundreds of banks in this country waiting to be robbed. Three or four smart fellows can always find a. way to tbeir vaults. Find it and clean and places out. Be open and aboveboard about it. Even if you have to kill the watchmen to get your hands on the dough tbe public will respect you more than if you : made it through a trust. If caught you may bave to go to state prison, but while serving your sentence you will ,' have tbe consolation of a clear con- : science in comparison, j Another way to get rich is to go int& : politics. Don't go into politics to be : satisfied witb an aldermanship. The stealings are very fair, and you are always sewed at tbe bar of a saloon , first, but tbere is no wisdom in being ] a small bad man wben you can become a big bad man. Gas companies, rail- ' roads and other corporations are wait: ing for you to reach the legislature.and congress. They have money to buy you. You can earn it by selling the - -ri-gbtr~titre~a"ntl���������itfisreit~of~y5TO~lp>" stituerits and helping to defeat law and j justice all over the land. I Don't be a small bad man in politics, ! my son. Either get to the top, where tbe people can fasten a tag on you as a big bad man, or cut tbe thing altogether aiid bring out a. now kidnoy cure or a new brand of vinegar. As a big bad man you are known to have taken your price, and any speeches you may make or any Interviews you may give out will be taken for what thoy aro worth. So will you. You will bave power and influence, and a certain' set will fawn and flatter, but down lu your heart you will'realise bow the honest yeomanry feel toward you. Tho majority of the people today do not believe that there Is such a thing among us as an honest politician. Thoy won't believe lu your honesty lf you becomo one, but If you let it bo broadly known that you are not In the business for your health you will be spoken of and respected as a dishonest official. Wo do certainly llko an honest man, but It ls just as certain that we also admire a rascal who is honest enough to tell us to look out for our purses when he ls around. ������������������ One thing more, my son. Whon you have acquired grorit wealth In the practice being followed today buy you a plot of ground ln some comotery and spend a hundred thousand plunks In marblo shafts nnd sorrowing angola and goldon epitaphs. Host assured that yonr heirs won't do It after your death, nor will tho squeezed public ovor dlscovor what a philanthropist you woro In llfo unless rondlug the statement cut with a chisel. M. QUAD.

I When you see a young girl pale and ailing ant was-tlng away, you know that budding womanhood is making new demands upon her blood supply which she cannot meet.

'��������� The utter stupidity of sheep ls perhaps nowhere more strongly evidenced than in the perfect satisfaction witb Which a ewe that has lost her lamb will take to a strange lamb around which has been fastened the skin of her dead offspring. Considering that the skin of the dead lamb is often merely thrown loosely over the back of tbe living lamb, sometimes hanging almost to the ground on one side or the other and making the lamb appear the quaintest kind of animal imaginable, the ewe's gullibility in this respect is remarkable. There can be no other explanation of her satisfaction than that she really thinks the muffled little stranger Is ber ov^n progeny; otherwise she would give it no attention whatever; Williams' Pink Pills actually make] | new blood with every dose. That is j j the .whole secret of how * they have ) ��������� saved thousands of pale, anaemic | girls from an early grave. Miss! Alice Chapnt. aged 17 years, living j nt-l75'Sf.

"A couple of years ago," says Miss Chapnt, "I was an almost continuous sufferer- snd became so weak I could hardly go about. I suffered from frequent, and prolonged, spells of dizziness, J had frightful headaches, and my stomach was completely out.of order. The least exes-lion would leave me worn out and breathless, and I did not appear to have a drop of good "blood in my body. I consulted a doctor who told me the trouble was general debility,, but his treatment 1 did not help me a particle. To add I to the trouble iny nerves gave way, 'and I often passed sleepless nights. j At. this stacre' a friend' advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I , grit a few boxes.
