C. 1 Hood Co., lowfll, Xut: - "Gentlemen I take ere at pleasure la advisInf yon of my cmre by Hood's Sarsaparilla and gladly recommend it to all suffering as I have been. My system became thoroughly deranged and life seemed little else bnt a burden. I was very bilious and my kidneys and liver were ont of order. I had no appetite, and seldom ate any breakfast. I bad taken tonics and bad been treated by different physicians, bat with tittle or no success, and bad become quite disheartened, fearing my ease was Beyond Human Aid.

Tulle is becoming extremely fashionable in Paris, and, therefore, all over the world. It is threatening to oust the loner popular chiffons, and at the leaditr Parisian dressmakers this season many evening dresses have been made for girls and young married women of tulle over silk slips of self, or contrasting colors. A pretty model is changeable glace tuffeta in pale pink and azure, covered entirely with azure silk tulle. The skirt has a loose fold about the feet, caught at intervals with rosettes of pink and azure moire ribbon. The corsage is draped with tulle and the "puffy" sleeves are finished o.T with ribbon bows ana a delicate tulle ruffle finishes the decolletage.

HAY-FEVER

A hardy miner witb careworn face. And pants all shattered about the base. And coat so dreadfully rent and torn Twould frighten crows from a field of corn. Stood gaslng with eager, hungry stare Through a restaurant's big show wlndowi where Tbe richest of viands were) placed in sight As bait for tbe wandering appetite. As stood he gazing at good things there His thin lips moved alas, not in prayer. Bat In mattered curses upon the fate Which had kicked him downward to such a state. Noting his attitude. I drew near. By curiosity led, to bear What topic his soul so deeply stirred, And this the reproachful speech I heard: Look at 'em, darn yon, look at 'em straight An' hanger fur 'em, you reprobate, It sarves you rlv'ht To be l:i this plight Btarrln, an' can't git a cussed bite. An' thar It is, jest stacks of it, too. The best the market affords, an' you A-famlshln", darn you. Well, it'll ram you To let well enough alone, you duffer. . 0, darn you, suffer. "Look at that turkey, roaste 1 brown. Don't you wish yon could awaller down About the ha'f of It? Seem them pies, Food for a angel from Farad Isa, An' you a-starvlu', you chump.

Told 'em silver "d bulje ahead. Gold be wuthless as so much, lead. Tbe Nation and the Veterans. A newspaper hostile to the veterans of the Union armies takes occ s on to indicate, as one reason why tho pension system should be attacked and broken down, the fact that the veterans are no longer so powerful in numbers as to 1 e an important force in politics. In other wordr, the pledge of the nation, given by its martyred freidont. should be violated, and the soldi rs of the Union and their heir-less widows and orphans abandoned to destitution, because death ha; so thinnea the ranks of the veterans that they would bo unable to secure redress at the pells for the injustice done them. Such is the argument of men who would measure the honcr of the nation with a yardstick, and abjure its nbligat:ons provided no i enalty would follow. It is an argument unworthy of an h movable people. The very suggestion is insulting to the dignity, tho honesty and the Helf-respect of the American Republic, and deserves notice only as showing the dishonest and disloyal spirit that ani i ates the enemiet of the soldier. Farmers Are Aroused, Farmers and hay dealers in New t'ork, Pennsylvania, Ohio. Indiana, Illinois, Michigan. Iowa, Wisconsin, Nebraska and Vermont have sent Senator Allison a protest against reducing the duty on hay from. $4 per ton to 0 per cent, ad valorem, which means a duty of 11. 2 1 a ton. Since the passage of the MeKinley law Canada has shipped Its hay largely t Europe, leaving the American market to the American prolucer. While the value of the wheat crop of the United States is i li5,0! 10,00 i and that of corn $V;0,000,000, the value of the hay crop is $760,000,000. J Qov. McKlnley on the Tariff. It is reassuring and refreshing to turn from the narrow utterances of t! e leaders of the dominant party in Congress to the clear and robut ntatfKmanship of Gov.

It is for the plantation, not lor the farm or factory." Tho claim of tho Democrats that t his bill will relieve the people of "burdensome taxation," of which there has been no complaint, is shown up as follows: "It has relieved the people of employment of work, of wages, of prosperity' and of plenty, and some of them of their homes. Tbe ble sings of good wages, good prices, and good t mos Ave more to be desired than the proposed relief from the so-called burdonsome taxation." The bill has already done this in anticipation, so that what it may do li passed can be roadily conjectured. Baltimore American. The Duty on Wool, The prospect of the repeal of the duty on wool has already inflicted enormous injury on tho e-mntrv. and its destroct've work is scarcely begun. Under protection the wool clip of the United States increased ovor 81,000,000 pounds from 1802 to 189,'i, tho product last year being 364,000,1 0'J pounds. But between Jan. 1, lb'Xi, and Jan. 1, 1894, the value of thep in the United States declined from $125,!i0n,2f4 to 889,lHn,110, and, taking into account the shrinkage in value of farm and i anoh property dovoted to the sheep industry, it is estimated that tho direfct loss to wool growers has been not less than $50,000,000. That is only ono item in the account of damages chargeable) to the Democratic party. Has Committed lliimelf.

BY MRS. M. CHAPTER XlX.-Contlnued, Ho hoard nothing but hor childish pleadings the unburdening of all that her young heart had borno. The struggle that was going on below did not reach him: oven vengeanco itself was lost as ho knolt beside this cirl, delirious ill unto death, perchance and prayed that she might be spared to him the woman he loved. As Hoy had disappeared up the stairs Geoffrey Armistoad gavo a signal to the two policemen. They pushed aside the landlady, a villainous-looking 'old woman, and in another instant were in the dirty beer-stained coffeeroom. Jura was sitting with his back towards them reading, the diamonds close to his band, when a sudden exclamation from another man in the room caused him to turn round. With a muttered oath ho started to his feet, and put his hand into his pocket for the revolver; but the men were too quick for him. and though he hit at them and struggled violently, they overcame him, and Count Jura, Alice's enemy, stood at last in tho hands of the law. 'What is thisi"' said Gooffroy Armistead, coolly lifting up the cloak and looking at the ease containing the diamonds. "Ah, the jewels, of course! Now, my men, off with him to $he police court. Ho is a dangorous customer has committed murder to-day!" "Curse you!'1 muttered Jura fiercely, white as a sheet. "Who are youf What right huve you to say anything to me? I'll have the law of you for this." "You are a olevor man,'' Geoffrey answered with a laugh, "but the game is up. Count Jura: your companions are at this moment closely-guarded prisoners at Darrell Castle: you will join them very soon in tho dock. Away with him!" So, like the felon he was, Myra's destroyer villain, murderer Count Jura was dragged off to the fate ho deserved, while above lay the girl whoso brain, through his devilish cruelty, was mad with fever, whoso frail young body was sinking beneath the weight of fear and anguish she had born these last few days. CHAPTER XX. The autum sun was tinging the landscape with its rod g-low. It penetrated into the seclusion of a bedroom, and iingored on tho wondrous masses of t he golden hair that crowned the head of a lovely girl standing in a passive attitudo by the window. It was Alicefrail, white, and delicate. As yet she scarcely comprehended all that had happened. A dim mitt of dreams was in her mind, mingling pain, horror, ana fear with the sense of comfort and peace she felt now, She had been ill for one mosith ill into death, but she knew nothing of it; neither did she know one of the loving faces that hung over her sick bed, praying fervently for her life. Now she was able to stand, to move ibout slowly, and try to recall her scattered and bewildered thoughts. She was awakened from her present iream by the entrance of Davis. "Lor" my lady, have you been standing all this time? It's too much," Davis exclaimed sympathizingly. 'I feel better stronger, Davis," Alice answered with a faint smile; "but I am trying to think of all that has happened, and it is so diflicult so aillieult." "What's the use in thinking, my lady? You'll only tire yourself out Here let mo push the chair to the window, and there! her ladyship wants toseoyou." "Her ladyship wants to see me!"repoated Alice vaguely. "The Earl s mother. She has nursed you all the timo, my lady " "And she is going to nurse you some weeks yet," spoke a voice at the door, and Roy's' mother came in. Then a sort of mist cleared away from Alice's mind she seemed to see nd know all that this gontle whitehaired woman had suffered and done tor her. Sho roso feebly and stretched out her hands, and Lady Darrell drew the slender form to hor heart. "Rest there, my daughter," she said tenderly; "my poor little darling." Then, still clasping her in her arms, the older woman moved to the chair, ind placed Alice in it. "You are stronger to-day," she said "strong enough, I think, to hear all have to say?" "Toll mo quickly isanything wrong is there more trouble?" Alice's pale ;hecks flushed. "No mor.j trouble, clear, 1 trust nothing but happiness. See, 1 am going to iit beside you, and chat a while. Davis, pou may go, but don't bo far away. I shall ring for you presently." Alice gazed at Lady Darrell's face most, anxiously. "Now, my dear child, I will tell you til. First let all fear and dread pa& from your mind. The man who did fou so great a wrong is separated from your path torevor. Tho murder of that poor girl and your own sufferings bavo been avenged." "She died, then?" breathed Alice faintly. "And she was so good to me." "I was with hor when she died, and hope and think her end was peace. She had been cruelly treated, but her nature was pure through it all. We will not wish her back again, for life, is she found it, had been very bitter." Lady Darrell paused an instant. "When you wore fouud delirious in the inn, at first thev feared to move you, but after awhile the doctors Dpincd that your recovery would be aioro certain if brought into purer air, so we moved you here, my child. This Is a farm a few miles out of town, which, I dare fay. you cannot remember." "No," answe;"ed Alice; it is all like a hideous dream." "Ah, well, it is gone! And now, dear, lot us go further. Do you renembor when I asked you once if you could recall nothing of your childhood, you said you had a faint recollection of a sweet face?" " Yes yes." "That, face was your mother's. Let me finish ray surprise at ont e. You aro tho child of h'ulko and Margaret Durant; your parents are dead, but your grandfather, Sir Humphrey Durant, is outside this door, waiting to clasp you to his heart. " Alioe rose to her feet, her face white evon to tho lips. "My grandfather!" she repeated. "But Aunt Martha " "Was no relation. Sir Humphrey is your Head father's father. You are the dearest creature in the world to him. I will call him." Lady Darrell moved across to the door, and Alice saw a tall stately man enter, whose dark eyes beamed with love, whoso trembling hands were outstretched to catch her. "My childmy poor boy's chi'd found at last!" Sir Humphrey pressed the girl to bis heart, tours in his eyes. "Let me look at you, my flower my star eomo to brighten my old life. Merciful powers: how like " "She resembles poor Fulko?" Lady Darrell asked gently. "More: she is the- living image of my precious wife - Fulke's mother. Soe, yon know the Arnolds well? Is not that the Arnolds' face?)' Alice looked up, and sho remembered Ijrd Riulino's words to hor that miserable day of the ride to tho Abbey. She bent hor fresh lins to Sir Humphrey's hand and kissed it. 'I have known no father or mother till now,'7 she murmurud. "1 will lovo you as both." TJjwj. M thf oli wa idiied btr

fondly, she turned to the EarP mothor. . , "And you, too,"' she said simply. "And now you must rest a while," Laciv Darrell said affectionately. "Wait an instant," broke in Sir Humphrey. "My darling, is there no one else you would like to soo?" A wave of color dyed Allce'n lovely face; she drew herself away and turned to the window. "There is no one who would care to see mo," she replied. Sir Humphrey and Ladv Darrell exchanged glances, and, in answer to a sign he made, the lady went slowly from the room. "Well, my darling," Sir Humphrey said tenderly, "I will leave you now. When you are rested I will come back, and then you shall hear how Mr. Meredith helped us to find you, and how many friends you have that you know nothing of." Alice kissed him, and he left her sitting in her chair, feeling strangely happy and proud in the knowledge of her illustrious birt h and new-found roliitive. yet with a sense ot heaviness and depression that she could not push aside. Presently Davis came in while she was sitting thus. "You know all, my ladv," she said lightly. "Ah, what did I always say? I knew you were a born Countess. Why it is quite a romance." "Some of it was a painful romance, Davis," Alice said slowly. "Yet how strange it all seems! A year ago a farm help, ill-treated and alone. Now u Countess with " Her voice died, the, memory of her husband came with startling clearness, and with it the thought that she lived and was the barrier to his happiness with Valerie. She lay languidly back in her chair, looking sadly out of the window while Davis cliattered on. "You will soon be able to leave here and go back to the Castle, my lady." Alice shuddered. "I cannot go back there yet," she said in low tones. Davis made no answer. She went to the door. Lady Darrell was beckoning her out. She slipped away, and someone else entered the room softly. "No, Davis,'' Alice went on slowly; "I cannot even think of the Castle yet. Davis," she asked suddenly keeping her face well turned away, "did did tbe Earl ever ask for me when I was ill?" No answer, Alice gavo a deep sigh. "Nevermind, Davis; don't think of my stupid questions. I was only She covered her face with her hands, and someone bent over her and took them gently away, kissing them passionately at the same time. Alice started, grew crimson, then white as death. Beside her on the ground knelt the very man of whom she spoke the Earl her love her husband. "Did I ever ask for you, my darling?" Roy said tenderly, a flush on his handsome face, a love-light in his eyes. He still grasped her slender hands in his. "You have not known, you have not seen me near vou nlpht and day. I have nev ar left you, Alice my wife! I have prayed that vou might recover, if only to see you knew ine, and that you forgave me. Before you utter another word, say that,.A lice you forgiveme!" She drew back a little. "I have nothing to forgive you," she said faintly. "You were right. I was then so much beneath you alarm girl and I separated you from from her." "Listen, sweet, I beg listen. Remember the night before you were torn away. Did not my eyes speak plainly then? Could you not guess what my heart felt? Ah, Alice, you did know. Then, my darling, I knew nothing of your birth. It was you I loved, as I love now. Were you forty times a farm girl, I mast love you the same. You aro my very life! Say you love me!" "Love you!" she murmured. "I have loved you from the moment I saw you it was that love that nearly broke my heart." "My darling!" said the Earl passionately, drawing her head to his shoulder, and pressing his Hps to hers. "My own my very own wife!" Six months passed. Darrell Castle is alive with people; it is the home-coming of the Earl and his beautiful young Countess. Sir Humphrey Durant and the dowager Lady Darrell stand together in the wide entrance to welcome their children. Behind stretch a line of servants, Davis with her face crimson in her excitement at once again seeing her beloved mistress. Roy had taken no one with them who could remind his wife of what she endured. New scenes, new faces, new love, he determined should work away all traces from her young mind, so Davis had been left behind. A group of gr.ests were assembled, among whom were Frank Meredith and Geoffrey Armisted, whose friendship now the Earl neld as part of his possessions. A glimpse of outsiders was seen; the tenants in the grounds set Up a cheer; it was caught up by the servants, and with shouts and acclamations of happiness, Alice, Countess of Darrell, returned to her husband's home, and amid all the hand-clasping, the tender words, the genuine affection, gratitude and love for the being who had lavished all the good and treasures of life upon her during the last six months stood first. When all was over, the guests gone, and the Castle silent, Alice put hor head on Roy's shoulder, and kissed his hand, while, he said tenderly: "All has gone off well, my darling, yet without all this could you love me, as I lovo you, with no pomp, no grandeur, no riches, Bimply for myself ?" "I could' whispered Alice. "I do. Our life, Roy, shall, ' please God, be ever happy not by riches, titles, or grandeur, but through simple neverdying love!" t And while peace and love came to the girl who had suffered, the one who had plotted against her honor, her soul, lived in darkness forever more. For when the mangled body of Paul was found on the ground beneath the balcony, from which he had fallen, and Valerie, who had recovered from her swoon, beheld all that remained of her erring brother, the full realization of all it meant to her disgrace and ruin -was too much for her over- ; wrought and scheming brain. The frail cord that held reason to Its throno snapped, and with a piercing shriek Valerie again lapsed Into insensibility. Hut this time when her eyes opened again to tho light, they bore the look of hopeless insanity. Visitors to tho celebrated establishment of Dr. for the mentally ufdieted, stand and gaze in piteous ad miration at ine reguiiy oeuuiuiu woman, who never speaks, but with dead white face searches the ground for tho fallen form of hor brother, and turns with tigress force to spring on tbe person who interrupts. Sometimes she is visited by a handsome man and a fair lovely girl, but she knows them not, and they wend their way sorrowfully from her till they loso recollections of hor wretched life in their own happiness.
