IS GAINED The stoiy of a great deal of the unhappiness of women is a story of lost health. Women wonder how it is that' liltle by little the form loses plumpness, the cheeks grow hollow and sallow, and they feel tired and' worn-out all the time. In a large proportion of cases when women are weak, run-down and falling off in flesh and looks, the root of the trouble can be traced to womanly diseases which undermine the general health. The proof of this is that women who have been cured of painful womanly diseases by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription have recovered their general health, gained in flesh and in appearance. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures the womanly diseases which sap the general health. It establishes regularity, dries weakening drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. I suffered for three vears with ovarian trouble." writes Mrs. Anna Quinn (Treasurer Woman's Athletic Club), of 602 Sycamore St., Milwaukee, Wis. "The treatment I took did not do me a particle of frocxl. until a pood neighbor who had been using Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription advised me to give it a trial. The next dav took mv first dose, and it was my first step toward reco'verv. In nine weeks I was a different woman ; my flesh which had been flabbv became firm, complexion clear and my eyes bright. It was pimply an indication of the great change within from "pain and suffering to health and happiness." " Favorite Prescription " makes weak women strong, sick women well. Accept no substitute for the medicine which works wonders for weak women. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets invigorate stomach, liver and bowels. MONEY LOANED JVom 5 to 6 per cent.

NALDSON

Copyright, 1C02, by Charles W. Hook - (Continued.) CHAPTER XVIII. TUE .fcEVKN MYSTERIES. ONALDSON. Donald and I rode back to Tunbridge in a oar of our own behind a switch en gine. During the ride Donald gave us a complete statement of his motives and conduct. There is no doubt that he told the truth as he saw it. "If you could understand the agonies that I've suffered," he pleaded, "you would forgive me. You promised to do it anyhow." "I have no idea of going back upon that promise," said I. "But what have 1 to forgive? I cannot believe that you have intentionally deceived me." "Yes. I have." he insisted. "I've been tryiug to lie without lying and to tell the truth without telling it. That's the worst kind of deception. I wish I could look back upon one good, honest, downright lie." "Well." said I. with a smile, "you told me that you were making use of a power not possessed by the generality of mankind. Understand me, I still believe that in spite of what you said to Mr. Kelvin. Otherwise I cannot account for your knowledge of the exact language used in conversations which you did not hear and which could not have been reported to you, not to mention any other phases of this mystery." "It's true." he groaned, "and that's the worst of it. There!" he cried suddenly, point inr: through the window of the car which I;:il not yet been drawn out of the station. "Can you tell me what those two men are talking about?" "Certainly not," I replied. "I can," said he. "The taller man is trying to sell the other a horse. I could describe the horse, which I have never seen, not as he exists probably, but as the man who is trying to sell him has described him. Wouldn't that seem like a miracle?" "It would have that flavor," I mitted. '' "I know what he is saying by motion of his lips," said Donald. adthe "I have learned to do it. I got the idea from Tim Ilealy. You kuow that be was deaf for years when he was young, and he acquired the power then. I am not very expert, but Tim is a wonder. When I said that there was somebody in Tunbridge who was a thousand times more miraculous than I am, I m:int Tim. He never mentions it to any one except me." A shudder ran through me at the thought of Jim Buna having been at tended throughout his struggles and his downfall by such a companion. Dunn's lips, as I have said, were always in motion. His desk was directly opposite Ilealy's. and for little Tim the experience must have been like listening to the voice of another man's conscience. "Let me tell the whole story," said Donald. "'You can't imagine what a relief it will be to me. The first knowlhere ealy my " 'He walks ur and down in Mr. Har rington's room when there's no one else there,' wrote Tim, 'and he talks to himself. I can see him through the glass partition, but he can't see me, because there's a reflection from that side. I've seen him swear that he'll do your father up. I don't know bow he thinks he's going to manage It, but that's what he says.' "I didn't know what to make of it, and I wrote back to Ilealy to keep his eyes open. He told me soue things that aren't worth mentioning now, but they made me sure that he was not mistaken. Now, uncle, could I tell you that? Could I tell my father? Tim couldn't prove anything. He thought that if it were told he'd merely make an enemy of Mr. Archer and do no good to anybody. After awhile Tim wrote me that Mr. Bunn knew of Carl s feeling, but that Mr. Punn was in so much trouble and so tangled up by owing money to Carl and you and my father that he did not dare to take any action. Carl was making promises to him and hold ing him in check. Finally Tim told me that you had $40,000 in the safe in your room and that Mr. Bunn had made up his mind to steal it. That was Tim's greatest mistake. Mr. Bunn had already stolen it, by changing the packages, and it was hidden in the letter file, but Tim did not succeed in catching that fact. He told me that, considering how Carl felt toward my father, there might be serious trouble if that money should be missing while my father was so burdened with this Harbrook Land company. I thought that that was a mere scare. I never dreamed that Carl could really do such a thing. However, I made up my mind to come home and tell you. "But when I got here I didn't know what to do. You will remember that I asked you whether you were surrounded by trustworthy people, and what you said to me that night about Mr. Bunn and Carl simply drove me to despair. I couldn't make accusations against them upon the evidence of what Ilealy had tsccn them say. He begged me not to do so. He told me

ed'-e that I had of any trouble

9 By HOWARD FIELDING that the two men would stand together against him and tnat it would be bis ruin; you'd never have any confidence in him. again. "Well," he continued, with a sob, "I went to you, uncle, and said that I was going to make a fool of myself, and it's certain that I hare kept my word. 1 ought to have told my father, and I tried to do it, but as soon as I hinted that there was anything wrong with Carl I saw that he was as strongly prejudiced as you were. And, as for my mother, I couldn't tell her half the truth or ask her to believe what was so bad that I couldn't believe it my self I really couldn't. "Now, there's something in my char acter that is going to be rooted out of it. There is a tendency to think of trickery as a resource when I am hard pressed. In games, while I am always fair. I have a most unholy gift of fooling the other f;l!ov. Hut I fight against this fault, and I am going to tight harder. "In this emergency I fell back upon my besetting sin. Of course I have al wars known that you believed me to be a queer boy with a certain super natural gift. Why. it seems to me that I found it out before I was five years old! It used to make me miserable and ashamed years ago. and I never would say anything about it except to deny that I was different from others. Yet sometimes th!s deep seated influence in me would boil up. and 1 would go out and fool somebody just to get the thing off my mind." At this Donaldson dropped his head into his hands and groaned. "I know it's pretty bad. father," said Donald. "You have a perfect right to be ashamed of me. And. oh. my moth er! What shall I say to her? But 1 tnustn t think of it. Let me get on with my confession. How many tricks have I played?" This was probably not intended fors uuestion. and yet I answered it. Sin gularly enough, my answer coincided with the general view as it was ex pressed in the long continued public discussion that followed, both in and out of print. J-ntie. .lq seven chief mysteries here, as I see the case," said I, counting them off on my fingers. "There's the matter of the exprcted robber, the finding of the diamond collar, the exposure of Gillespie, the matter of Walmsley's hand, the prediction of the vote, the disclosures regarding Jim Bunn and the prediction of Gillespie's death." "Dcn't, don't!" cried Donald. "I never meant to predict his death. I've said so over and over again. I had no more idea that he was going to die than I had that I was going to die. I meant just what I said that if he didn't speak then he'd never have the chance. Coincidence can always be counted upon except when you want it right away. Wait, and it will always come. "As to the robber. I made up any sort of story that would make you watch the safe. Ilealy gave me a description of the packages. He had seen you put them away. I thought that the money v:is still in them, and I hoped that you would scare Bunn away or catch him if he was really planning such a crime. 1 happened to have seen William Haekett in New York, and 1 knew how his looks had changed. I saw in that a chance to impress you, uncle, and I had made up my mind that you must come to believe more and more strongly in my powers in order that you would finally take my word against Carl Archer's. Later, of course, I did all that I could to impress Mr. Bunn. I just worked on his feel ings. I dragged him up to Mr. Kel vin's that night. I did everything to increase his superstition so that he would eventually be afraid of me and confess to me and obey me, as he subsequently did." "Thank heaven!" 1 interjected. "As to Gillespie." continued Donald, "he was brought out here first by Carl, who by that time had Mr. Bunn completely in his power and was afraid that I might shake the hold. Carl also wanted to know what I was trying to do, whether I had trapped any secret, whether I was aware that he was plotting to drive your business into the trust so that he might be made the manager of the concern and exercise a spurious generosity toward my father. "Tim Ilealy saw a conversation between Gillespie and Carl in your room, and that let me into the whole truth about Gillespie and about the fight that would be made for the control of the branch road.. I frightened him away the first time by having Ilealy tell him that he had received a telephone message from a Princeton friend of mine saying he'd be in Tunbridge by the 3:30 train. " 'If you see young Mr. Donaldson at the house, professor,' said Ilealy, 'will you give him this message?' "The bogus professor was in no position to meet a man from Princeton. You have heard me tell the story of Walmsley's hand. The prediction of the vote was made merely to impress Bunn and was founded on the plan which I had made to win Thorndyke over and force Carl to vote openly with Kelvin. Remember that Tim and I

knew some of Bunn's most secret thoughts; that we caught many con

versations between the different parties to this plot, and you will see nothing mysterious In what I did. - I was assisted, however, by Inferences and by hard thinking in two matters the finding of the deed and the trick by which Carl smuggled the stolen money into that package of papers. It was really there. I took it out while your handbag containing the papers was at the house that noon. That's all, uncle; that's the whole story." Now, it will be admitted, of course, that here is a rational explanation of the whole matter If we ascribe Donald's seeming prediction of Gillespie's death to coincidence, but I own that my opinion, like Mr. Kelvin's, is entirely unshaken. I believe that Donald used material means when he could get them and that, when he couldn't he bridged the gap with psychic power. Donaldson does not agree with me in this. "The power that you have, Donald," said he when the story had been told upon the train, "is the sad power of deception. You had it as a child. Though your heart Is honest, you run to trickery as to your natural weapon. It Is a fault that you must break." "I have sworn to do It, father," said Donald. "Amy Kelvin and I have talked it over. She knew that I would confess everything today, even her own share, and I have promised her that never again in my life, for any conceivable purpose, will I descend to the smallest deception." "You'll find that rather hard to live up to, Don," said I, "especially in business. But I commend your resolution. The harder it is to do the more It's worth doing." "By the way," said Donaldson, after a pause, "what are you going to do with Bunn?" "Forgive him." I replied. "It's a wrench, but I'm going to do it. Thorndyke's looking out for him now." "And Archer?" "Let him take his goods out of my house." said I. "It's all I'll ask of him. This has been a trying day," I added. "I'm glad that it is drawing to a close." "There is one more thing to do," said Donaldson gloomily as we rose to leav the train. (To be Continued.) Cured His Mother of Rheumatism.

MUNYON'S PAW-PAW CURES

Intemperance, In my opinion, is the curse of the world. There is not a liquor dealer but what will admit this. It is the cause of nearly all poverty, of most murders and of much, sickness. It has filled more insane asylums, it has broken more hearts and wrecked more lives than all other causes combined. "How can Intemperance be cured" la a question which should engage the most serious attention of all right-minded men. It has been demonstrated that prohibition does not correct, does not prohibit. It has been clearly proven that so long as a man has an" appetite for liquor he will get it, either openly or by stealth. To do away with the liquor habit we must do away with the appetite. Now, I claim that the appetite for liquor is as mucn a disease of the stomach and nerves as consumption Is a disease of the lungs. To correct the habit we must correct the disease. A man with a healthy stomach and normal nerves has no appetite, no yearning, no special desire lor alcoholic stimulants. A man whose stomach Is weak, whose liver is sluggisn, whose blood Is thin, whose nerves are shattered, who Is unable to digest what food is put Into thectomach, has a craving for a stimulant or something to lift him out of the despondency which, his ailments produce. I firmly believe that Paw-Paw will do more to correct intemperance than tons of tracts, thousands of temperance lectures or all the prohibitory laws that Munyon's Paw-Paw Tonic for fixative Pills the best Stomach and Every Wide-A wake Farmer who is interested in the news of his town and county should subscribe for a Good Local i Weekly Newspaper to keep him in touch with the doings of his neighbors, the home markets, and all items of interest to himself and family.

J ctaitnt that the craving for AlcoKolic Stimulants is a disease of the stomach and Nerves just as much as

Consumption is a disease of the lungs. MUNYON mankind can devise. It will do more because it will remove the cause. It wiU take away the appetite. It will give a physical and moral tone to the whole system. It will lift one into the high altitude of hope and hold them there. It will cure dyspepsia and every form of stomach trouble. It will cure nervousness, catarrh, sleeplessness and vitalize his whole system. Strength Is what he needs, and If you give him a clean stomach, a good, natural appetite, ana tone hi-s system up generally, he will have strength. Paw-Paw will do this for him. and do it quickly. The deadly drugs that are now being used to correct drunkenness are more pernicious than drunkenness itself. They weaken the nerves, they dethrone reason, they take the manly part of a man away from him. Let us build up manhood, let us build up truth, let us be honest one to another. I call upon preachers ana the workers of temperance to test my Paw-Paw remedy. If they know of a person who is addicted to drunkenness and has not the physical or moral strength to resist, they should advise him. to try Paw-Paw instead of resorting to beer, whisky, wine or other harmful beverages. It will make his stomach well. It will strengthen his nerves. It will enable him to sleep. It will take away all necessity or desire for alcoholic stimulants. It will give him exhilaration without intoxication. Satisfy his craving and give him strength and courage to resist. MUNYON. sale at all druggUt.
