Many persons who suffer from chronic ailments find in them a source of jrreat relief from the suffering which they would otherwise be compelled to endure. Their soothing influence upon the nerves strengthen rather than weaken them. For this reason they seldom lose their effectiveness. "I am 62 years old and have suffered for 42 years from nervous troubles, rheumatism and neuralgia, palpitation of the heart, shortness of breath, sleeplessness, and pain around the heart. The Dr. MITes Anti-Pain Pills have been a blessing to me. I don't know what I should do without them, and they are the only remedy I have ever used that either did not wear out in less time than I have been using them, or else the injurious results were such that I would be obliged to cease their use."

Loder read it slowly, mentally articulating every word; then he laid It down, and as he did he caught, kve's eyes raised In concern. Again he saw something of his own feelings reflected in her face, and the shock braced him. He picked up the letter, tearing it into strips. 'I must go out," he said slowly. "I must go now at once." Ills voice was hard. Eve's surprised, concerned eyes still searched his. "Now at once?" she repeated. "Now without breakfast?" 'I'm not hungry." He rose from his seat and, carrying the slips or paper across the room, dropped them Into the fire. He did it not so much from caution as from an Imperative wish to do something, to move, If only across the room. Eve's glance followed him. "Is It bad news?" she asked anxiously. It was unlike her to be Insistent, but she was moved to the Impulse by the peculiarity of the moment. "No," he said shortly. "It's busi ness. This was written yesieraay; i should have got It last night." Her eyes widened. "But nobody does business at 8 in the morning" she be gan in astonishment, then she sudden ly broke off. Without apology or farewell Loder had left the fireplace and walked out of the room. He passed through the hall hurried ly, picking up a hat as he went, and, iod-er stood shocked and spellbound, by the sight. reaching the pavement outside, he went straight forward until Grosvenor square was left behind, then he ran. At the risk of reputation, at the loss of dignity, he ran until he saw a cab. nailing it, he sprang Inside, and as the cabman whipped up and the horse responded to the call he realized for the first time the full significance of what had occurred. Realization, like the need for action. came to him slowly, but when It came it was with terrible lucidity. He did not swear as he leaned back in his seat mechanically watching the stream of men on their way to business, the belated cars of green produce blocking the way between the Strand and Covent Garden. He had no use for oaths; his feelings lay deeper than mere words. But his mouth was sternly set and his eyes looked cold. . Outside the law courts he dismissed his cab and walked forward, to Clifford's inn. As he passed through the familiar entrance a chill fell on him. In the clear, early light It seemed more than ever a place of dead hopes, dead enterprises, dead ambitions. In the onward march of life it had been forrotten. Th vprv nir b breath of uufulfillment He crossed the court rapidly, but his mouth set itself afresh as he passed through the doorway of his own bouse and crossed the bare hall. As he mounted the well known stairs he received his first indication of life in the appearance of a cat from the second floor rooms. At sight of him the animal came forward, rubbed demonstratively against his legs and with affectionate persistence followed him upstairs. Outside his door he paused. On tie ground stood the usual morning can of milk evidence that Chileote was not yet awake or that, like himself, he had no appetite for breakfast He smiled Ironically as the idea struck him, but It was a smile that stiffened rather than relaxed his lips. Then he drew out the duplicate key he always carried and. inserting it quietly, opened the door. A close, unpleasant smell greeted him as he entered the small passage that divided the bed and'sittlng rooms a smell of whisky mingling with the odor of stale smoke. With a quick gesture he pushed open the " bedroom door. Then on the threshold be pansed.

On om curui-f f Urn tftble a carafe of water and a w hlr.ky decanter rested one against Mm oilier, as If for support, and at the other end an overturned tumbler lay In a pool of liquid. The whole effect was ulekly and nauseating. His glance turned involuntarily to the bed and there halted. On the hard, narrow mattress, from which the sheets and blankets had fallen In a disordered heap, lay Chileote. ne was fully dressed In a shabby tweed suit of Loder's; his collar was open, his lip and chin unshaven; one hand was limply grasping the pillow, while the other hung out over the side of the bed. His face, pale, almost earthy In hue, might have been a mask save for the slight convulsive spasms that crossed it from time to time and corresponded with the faint, shivering starts that passed at Intervals over his whole body. To complete his repellent appearance, a lock of hair had fallen loose and lay black and damp across his forehead. Loder stood for a space shocked and spellbound by the sight. Even In tha ghastly disarray the likeness the ex traordinary, sinister likeness that had become the pivot upon which he himself revolved struck him like a blow, The man who lay there was himself, bound to him by some subtle, Inexplic able tie of similarity. As the Idea touched him he turned aside and step ped quickly to the dressing table. There, with unnecessary energy, he flung back the curtains and threw the window wide. Then again he turned toward the bed. He had one dominant Impulse, to waken Chileote, to be free of the repulsive, Inert presence that chilled him with so personal a horror. Leaning over the bed, he caught the shoulder nearest to him and shook it It was not the moment for niceties, and his gesture was rough. At his first touch Chileote made no response his brain, dulled by indulgence in his vice, had become a laggard In conveying sensations but at last, as the pressure on his shoulder Increased, his nervous system seemed suddenly to jar Into consciousness. A long shudder shook him; he half lifted himself and then dropped back upon the pillow. "Oh!" he exclaimed In a trembling breath. "Oh!" The sound seemed drawn from him by compulsion. Its uncanny tone chilled Loder anew. "Wake up, man!" he said suddenly. "Wake up! It's I Loder." Again the other shuddered; then he turned quickly and nervously. "Loder?" he said doubtfully. "Loder?" Then his face changed. "Good God," he exclaimed, "what a relief!" The words were so intense, so spon taneous and unexpected that Loder took a step back. Chileote laughed discordantly and lifted a shaky hand to protect his eyes from the light. "It's-4t's all right, Loder! It's all right! It's only that I that I had a beastly dream. But, for heaven's sake, shut that window!" He shivered In voluntarily and pushed the lock of damp hair from his forehead with a weak touch of his old irritability. In silence Loder moved back to the window and shut it. He was affected more than he would own even to him self by the obvious change in Chileote, He had seen him moody, restless, nervously excited, but never before had he seen him entirely demoralized. "With a dull feeling of impotence and disgust he stood by the closed window, looking unseeingly at the roefs of the opposite houses. But Chileote had followed his move ments restlessly, and now as he watch ! bim a Hicter or excitement crossed nis race. tou, iouer, ne saia again "'twas a relief to see you! I dreamed l was in xieu a norriDie neu, worse than the one they preach about" He laughed to reassure himself, but hla voice shook pitiably. Loder, who had come to fight, stood silent and inert. "It was horrible beastly," Chileote went on. "There was no fire and brim stone, but there was something worse. It was a great ironic scheme of pun s - lsnmeat uy wnicn every man was chained to his own vice by which the thing he had gone to pieces over, in stead of being denied him, was made compulsory. You can't imagine it" He shivered nervously and his voice rose "Fancy being satiated beyond the 11m it of satiety, being driven and dogged by the thing you had run after all your life."' He paused excitedly, and in the pause Loder found resolution. He shut his ears to the panic in Chilcote's voice he closed his consciousness t6 the sight of his shaken face. With a surge of de termination he rallied his theories. Aft er all, he had himself and his own in terests-to claim his thought. At the m-

ment Chileote was a wreck, with no desire toward rehabilitation, but there was no guarantee that in an hour or two he might not have regained control over himself and with it the inclination that had prompted his letter of the day before. No; he had himself to look to. The survival of the fittest was the true, the only principle. Chileote had had intellect, education, opportunity, and Chileote had deliberately cast them aside. Fortifying himself in the knowledge, he turned from the window

and moved slowly back to the bed. "Look here," he began, "you wrote for me last night" His voice was hard. He had come to fight. Chileote glanced up quickly. His mouth was drawn and there was a new anxiety in his eyes. "Loder!" he exclaimed quickly. "Loder, come here! Come nearer!" Reluctantly Loder obeyed. Stepping closer to the side of the bed, he bent down. The other put up his hand and caught his arm. His fingers trembled and jerked. "I say, Loder," he said suddenly, "'I I've had such a beastly night my nerves, you know" With a qtck, involuntary disgust Loder drew back. "Don't you think we might shove that aside?" he asked. But Chilcote's gaze had wandered from his face and strayed to the dressing table; there it moved feverishly from one object to another. "Loder," he exclaimed, "do you see can you see if there's a tube of tabloids on the mantelshelf or on the dressing table?" He lifted himself nervously on his elbow, and his eyes wandered uneasily about the room. "I I had a beastly night; my nerves are horribly jarred, and I thought I think" He stopped. With his increasing consciousness his nervous collapse became more marked. At the first moment of waking the re lief of an unexpected presence had sur mounted everything else, but now, as one by one his faculties stirred, his wretched condition became patent With a new sense of perturbation Loder made his next attack. "Chileote," he began sternly. But again Chileote caught his arm, plucking at the coat sleeve. "Where Is It?" he said. "Where is the tube of tabloids the sedative? I'm I'm obliged to take something when my nerves go wrong." In his weakness and nervous tremor he forgot that Loder was the sharer of his secret. Even in his extremity his fear of detection clung to him limply the lies that had become second nature slipped from him without effort. Then suddenly a fresh panic seized him, his fingers tightened spasmodically, his eyes ceased to rove about the room and settled on his companion s face. "Can you see it, Loder?" he cried. "I can't; the light's in my eyes. Can you see it? Can you see the tube?" He lifted himself higher, an agony of apprehension in his face. Loder pushed him back upon the pillow, lie was striving hard to keep his own mind cool, to steer his own course straight through the chaos that confronted him. "Chileote," he began once more, "you sent for me last night and I came the first thing this mornng to tell you" But there he stopped snort. With an excitement that lent him strength, Chileote pushed aside his hands. "God," he said suddenly, "sup pose 'twas lost suppose 'twas gone!" The imaginary possibility gripped him. He sat up, his face livid, drops of perspiration showing on his forehead, his whole shattered system trembling before his thought. At the sight Loder set his lips. "The tube 13 on the mantelshelf," he said in a cold, abrupt voice. A groan of relief fell from Chileote, and the muscles of his face relaxed. For a moment he lay back with closed eyes, then the desire that tortured him stirred afresh. He lifted his eyelids and looked at his companion. "Hand it to me," he said quickly. "Give it to me. Give It to me, Loder, quick as you can! There's a glass on the table and some whisky and water. The tabloids dissolve, you know" In his new excitement he held out his hand. But Loder stayed motionless. He had come to fight to demand, to plead, If need be, for the one hour for which he had lived the hour that was to satisfy all labor, all endeavor, all am bition. With doeged persistence he made one more essay. "Chileote, you wrote last night to re call me" Once again he paused, checked by a new interruption. Sit ting up again, Chileote struck out uddenlv with his left hand In a rush of his old irritability. "D n you!" he cried suddenly "What are you talking about? Look at me! Get me the stuff. I tell you It's imperative." In his excitement his breath failed, and he coughed. At the effort his whole frame was shaken. Loder walked to the dressing table, then back to the bed. A deep agita tion was at work in his mind. Again Chilcote's lips parted. "Loripr " hp Knlri fntntlv "Txvler. I must I must have it. It's imperative." Once more he attempted Jtp lift himself, but the effort was futile. , Again Loder turned away "Loder" With a fierce gesture the other turn ed on him. "Good heavens, man!" he began. Then unaccountably his voice changed. The suggestion that had been hovering in his mind took sudden and definite shape. "All right!" he ciM In a lo 'Pr vnico "111 T-iorht' Stay as you are." He crossed to where the empty tum bler stood and hastily mixed the whiskey and water, then crossing to the mantelpiece where lay the small glass tube containing the tightly packed tabloids he paused and glanced once mvro tntrnrd thA Vv1 "Hnw mflnv? he said laconically. Chileote lifted his head. His face was pitiably drawn, but the feverish bright

he said sharply. "Five. Do you hear, Loder?" "Five?" Involuntarily Loder lowered

the hand that held the tube. From previous confidences of Chilcote's he knew the amount of morphia contained in each tabloid and realized that five tab loids. If not an absolutely dangerous was at least an excessive dose, even He dropped the five tabloids one after another into the glass. for one accustomed to the drug. For a moment his resolution failed. Then the dominant note or his nature the un conscious, fundamental egotism on which his character was based assert ed itself beyond denial. It might be reprehensible, it might even be criminal to accede to such a request made by a man in such a condition of body and mind; yet the laws of the universe demanded self assertion prompted ev ery human mind to desire, to grasp and to hold.

He looked at Chileote with his haggard, anxious expression, his eager, restless eyes, and a vision of himself followed sharp upon bis glance A vision of the untiring labor of the past ten days, of the slowly kindling ambition, of the supremacy all but gained. Then, as the picture completed Itself, he lifted his hand wltu an abrupt movement and dropped the five; tabloids one after another into tht glass. . Then the Scholars Underttood. The written language Is so far from the spoken In Scotland that spelling reform Is an academic question. A story which ilustrates the many Jla lects is told of an examination at Aberdeen university. The examiners were an English clergyman and a Lowland Scotchman. The master ot the scholars put many questions to them which were admirably an swered; the boys brought the Is raelites out of Egypt with a simple directness which Moses would have envied. Then the clergyman asked i "How did Pharaoh die?" The boys sat dumb. The Lowlander, to make it more plain, reneated th "Hoo did Phawraoh dee?" Again there was a dead silence. Next the master himself took the matter in hand "Fat cam to Phawraoh at his hinder end?" The boys answered as with one voice: 'He was drooned!" To "dee" means in the Aberdeen dialect to die in one's bed. These careful scholars knew that Pharaoh had not "deed."
