will understand why Leone has acted as ahe has. Nathan wilder was a handsome man in his younger day*, I think the handsomest man I oror saw, and be was well aware of his good looks. He and I were bosom friends, and naturally I trusted him fully. "At the end of school, after we bad graduated, I invited Nathan.to accompany roe home to Hpend tbe Summer. My people lived on a farm in northern Ohio, not far from a beautiful lake, which abounded in fish, and tbe forest near at band offered abundant game for tbe aportsman. "Wilder accepted my invitation, and was soon domiciled at 'Tho Oaks,'" as the place was called.

All my fears were banished, however, when one morning, late in Summer, my Irienu came to me and mid that be vras the happiest man living. He had proposed and been accepted. lie had just come from my mother, who had g?ven tbem, Mary and Nathan, her blessing, and he had now come for mine. My father hud been dead many years. 1 grasped his hand and called him Tirother, telling him how pleased I was to have it so. "lint I must hasten. Nathan left for New York, where he was to enter a doetor's office. In a few months he would return* for his betrotbod. He never came. Two months later, Mary received a lotter announcing his marriage to his cousin, a society beauty, the present Mrs. Wilder. That lotter was a heartless epistle, HimAy mass of excuses for

Kent Worland drew a deep breath without reply. •'You do not, I can see," continued the old man "but I must proceod. I afterward married and moved to another State. A few years lrtter, Nathan Wilder came to live iu the little village t«n miles from my new home. Ho attempted to renew old acquaintanceship, but I spurned him as no doserved.

Her cousin had gone ovar to Cedarvale. tbe evening before, and had not returned. Leone wondered what waa keeping him so long. She knew how bitter Giles Worland was against ber fatherand all connected with ber family. It could not be that tbe old man had so far relepted as to allow Judd Palmer shelter for tbe night.

Standing in tbe dry grass, uader the wide-spreading branches of an oak, Leone drew in tbe soft fragraaceof tbe atmosphere, and felt a soothing influence steal over her.

Just then a step sounded near at band. Looking up, Leone beheld Keat Worland, but so changed as to be scarcely recognizable. His face was pale and

.... whole appearance was sad and dejected, and no wonder, for he had passed through a terrible conflict, in which love and dnty straggled for tbe mastery. As usual, the former came out ahead.

All night he had paced np and down tbe garden In Cedarvale, and at early dawn repaired to Wilder's to see Leone. "I have come to see yon onoe more, perhaps for the last time, Leone," be said, huskily. "Yon look wretched this morning, Kent," she said, in a sympathetic, tone. "What is the trouble?1' "Alas! you know too well," begroaned. "I do not understand." "Oh, Leone, it is you that has rendered me so miserable." "Me?" "Yes. I cannot giv8 you np. I hsve tried hard, very hard, but all to no effeet. I come now for a final answer." "Well "I had a talk with my father last evening, in which he related the story of the past. It was to weaa me from you, Leone, that he told me so much, but it bad the opposite effect. Will you be my wife, Leone? I know all that I sacrifice in making this choice, but "Please doa't sacrifice anything on my account," retorted the maiden haughtily. "I have no desire to drag you down." "Don't misunderstand me, Leone. I love you madly. I would make you my wife though in doing so I anger my father without measure. I know all the past, know, and still cannot turn from you, Leone."

He stood pale and trembling under ber gaze. What is therein tbe pest to cause you to turn from me, Kent Worland?" "Nothing. Be my wife, Leone, and let us flee the country, whore that black spot in your life is unknown, where we can live happily without

He paused suddenly. A scornful light blazed in her eyes. her slight form drawn up rigid and stern before him. "Magnanimous youth!" she said, with a cutting sneer. "Oh. Leone!" "This Is the measure of your love," she cried, bitterly. "So strong is it that you would consent to take me on condition that flee with you to some place where I at least am unknown where jieople will bellovo that the great and good Kent Worland has married one every way worthy of his high position." "Leone, you do ixof.

understand."

"Don'tIt" sheexdaimed, indignantly. "You come to me with a proffer of love, a love so weak and shame-faced as to fear the light of day." "Leone, hear me," cried Kent. "You wrong me by this languago.. I thought it would ploasa you better to go away from here, where yen are constantly reminded or

that -niiati#»--^4l»

where wo could grow together in love and peaceful happiness.*' "You are very kind," she rotorted, "to make me such a generousofTor. Men are deceptive. How do I know that I can trust you?"

He sprang forward and seised her hand. "Leone, Leone! how trust,after knowing tho story of your past life? Surely thnt was enough to put me to the test." "There is nothing in my past life I am ashamed of," returned Leone calmly. "Perhaps you may think differently.'^

Kent shrank back in a kind of wondering mace. His father had indeed spoken truly. Leone would fain defy the opinion of the world. Yet for all, he could not smother his Intense, passionate love. "Oh, Leone! Leone! you are most severe you "That will do, Kent Worland." cried the woman, hotly. "You believe the story told told you by your father. You deem me creature whom your love would save. Don't trust mo, Kont." "I will trust yon, Leone." he said, attempting to take her haud. She flung him off contemptuously. "Don't touch me," she cried sharply. "You are like your father, like the rest of mankind, lask not yorsympathy, I ask not your love, Go, Kent Worland, and never cross my path again." "Leouo, hear me. "Go! I'll not hear anotherwo%I." "Hut you cannot mean that. Surely, you lovo me, for yoti once said as muelr you "Stop! I do rtot love yon," she cried, "and never wish to loos on your face again!" and with this she turned and fled from him as from the shadow of death.

With a groan of anguish Kent Worland sank down, covering his face with his hands, stunned and utterly crashed in spirit.

CHAPTER xff.

A DARK MtOHT'S WOKK.

I/yme entered the house and stole softly up to her little room. Redno was ou the landing. "What's the m|kft$raia*er?'' questioned the dwarf. "Nothing, Redno. Wbydoyroiasfc?" "Your rase is so 1»prfcl white, I thought you wts ftifthd at something. Mavbe von*re aictdfif'? "S'o, little bev tfotfiUig of the kind.'1 said Leone, forcing a laugh. "Rundown and take Poet to wstor, please* I don't care to talk notr."

The lad passed down the stairs, mot* taring. "I'll bet It's Kent again," mused the dwarf. "Leone likes him so, I dont see why she can't be good friends, and not quarrel with him."

Leone entered her room and flung her light form into a chair. Tbe fierce indignation which had mastered her but a abort Une baforts had utterly vanished, and she was weak as a babyand iodul in a good cry. Her troubles demanded

What right had Kent to come to her with the story of the sinful past and ding It in heriaee? And he never aeetned to donbt the trath of tha font atory, which she knew to be false.

If be had refused to credit the story that the public had tattled to the wimiiL (die couhl have met him halt way. Bui coating as he did. believing her guilty, and clalmtag credit lor ncriflctag Mm* self for her, was too mneb. "Ill never apeak to Kent Worland again, never!" asserted Leone, emphatically, and the look of mingled anger aad determination on hear face angured lUfar that young man*t future proepecta.

The itj passed, and once move. grumbled Brock,

curtained tbe faoe of nature. Judd Palmer waa still absent, and the inmates at Wilder's were alarmed.

Redno waa dispatched to Cedarvale to make inquiries. He returned and reported the fact that Palmer left Cedarvale the evening befoie, and had not been seen since. "Something terrible has happened to my poor cousin," said Leone. "Burk Lawder has murdered him, I really believe."

No one accepted her theory, however. Leone's sleep was a troubled one that night, ber dreams haunted by Ugly ogres and savage men. She awoke with a start, about midnight. Her room was lighted with a reef, sickly glare, and with a startled cry, Leone sprang from tbe bed and rushed to the window.

The Southern horizon was blood-red, a quivering glare of flame shooting above the trees. "Fire, fire!" screamed Leone, at the top of ner lungs. The inmatos were roused, and were soon collected the yard outside the house. "What is it, sister?"

It was the voice of the dwarf. "Cedarvale!" exclaimed Mrs. Wilder, in frightened tones. "Cedarvale is burning!" cried Mr. Wilder.

His wife laid her hand en her husband's arm. "Nathan, those people may be in danger they surely are in trouble." "Very likely." "You mast go to tbem new."

The old man compressed his lips. "I'm sure I would not be welcome," he said, slowly. "Yet it is your duty to go, Nathan."

Wilder hesitated a moment. "Redno," cried Leone, "saddle Poet and bring him to tbe gate.

The dwarf started away like an arrow. "Where are you goiug, Leone?" cried ber father. "To Cedarvale," she answered ly"Child, you must not go there," said Wilder. "There may be danger it's no place for you."

Without heeding his words, Leone hastened to tbe gate, whither Redno had led the mustang, and with a whispered word to the dwarf, she sprang into the saddle.

Redno ran to the bouse, returning a moment later with Leon's silvermounted revolver in his hand. Snatching this quickly, tbe girl-woman spoke Jo the mustang, which raised its nead with a low whinny, and darted away like a shaft shot from a bow. "That girl's crazy, I do believe," muttered Mr. Wilder, as he walked to the stable to saddle one of the horses. He felt sure of meeting with anything but a friendly reception from Giles Worland, yet he bad resolved to ride to the conflagration.

The two farm-bands came to tbe bouse just then, and, on learniug of their employer's intention, they prepared at once to accompany him.

We must return to Cedarvale, and note what occurred there on this eventful night.

When little Redno galloped up to the house in the dusk of evening, Faith Worland happened to be coming down, the walk. She rocognized the mustang and bis rider at a glance. "Is my cousin here?',',questioned the boy. "Your cousin?" "Yes I mean Jadd. I know he comes here sometimes," said the lad. "Our folks are getting anxious about him, as he hasn't been homes since yesterday."

Faith** heart gave a bound. "Not been at home since yesterday! He went from here last night directly home, I supposed "No, he didn't," said Redno. "He qever got home. Where do you s'pose he is "I'm sure I don't know," returned Faith, trembling with a vague inward fear. "I will speak to Kent perhaps he raav know something of Judd's whereabouts."

But her brother had not seen the Californian since meeting him the night before.

Redno galloped homeward, leaving a shadow on the heart of Faith Worlaud She was greatly troubled about ber lover, and feared that something terrible khad happened to him.

It was with a sore and troubled heart that Faith retired to rest that night little dreaming bow terrible was it to bo its ending.

It was past midnight. The family at Cedarvale was wrapped in slumber, when sevoral darx forms crept from the timber and approached the house.

Giles Worland, his wife and daughter were the only inmates on this night, a fact well known to tho men who wore stealiug cautiously toward the house.

Burk Lawdor had planned a graud scheme of plunder and murder, and Kent Worland had been purposely deooyed from home that this villain might the better accomplish bis plans. Robbery, murder and abduction were •what had been planned, and his evil 6ilmrpanions had entered heartily into the Villainoumplofc.

UnobservedffOur dark forms stole to the house, two at the back and two at the front door. Burk Lawder tried the latch. It was fas.ened, as he expected to find it. He sluct the pannel several times, which had tbe effect to rouse the inmates.

Gilea drew on bis clothes hastened to the door. "Who's there?" he questioned, suspecting something wrong. "I have come from your son," said Lawder, disguising his voice. "Kent sent me to inform you of the accident." "Accident! Something happened to Kent?' cried Uie old man, id alarm. "Yes*, he is badly hurt. I will explain1"

Tbe unsuspecting okl matt^uiekly unlocked tbe door and flung it open. With the quickness ef lightning, Lawder let fell a billet of wood, whicn felled the okl mau to the door. "That fixed him. Brook," muttered

Etha

villain* "Now for the women. We must stop their mouths effectually, and tt&imbtbe bouse." "I will open the back door for Cobb and Landers," said Brock. "Wait here a moment."

The trofn passed quickly to the back door, and soon admitted tbe giant Oobb and his companion. "What is ft father?"

Tha voice of Faith came down the stain to tbe eats of tha manuders. She had blea^oosed by the kriociki and'fearing aotxie had dressed and come out of her room.

Eli Cobb bounded up tbe stairs, while Bark Lawder and one of the others entered tbe bedroom and seized Mrs. Worland,blnding and gagging ber effectually. "My pretty girl, I have yon this time for a dead oertainty."

Ffcith started back with a scream. but ahe waa too late to escape from ti*e villain who grasped bar in Me arm* aid fled down the statnk ing a lamp, .the villa!** ransacked tSe house for the mosey they supposed old Worland had hoared away. Ko money waa found, save a few dottam in silver.

Wbete in thunderoan the money be?"

TERRE TT ATTTTn SATURDAY EVENING MAIL.

"Let's questioned the old Woman." Suiting actions to words, tbe gag waa removed bnt Mrs. Worland answered not their questioning. She lay in a dead faint on the bed. "Curse the luck!" growled Lawder. "Mebbe tbe old man can be made to speak." "Not much," growled Lawder. "I finished him with the club. We might question the girl." "True I forgot that."

Cobb, however, bad left the house with his captive. Ever since his first attempt to abduct the maiden, Cobb had had It in mind to secure iitu* for himself some day. He had accompanied tbe expedition for the sole purpose of securing Faith, whose brother had once sent a bullet-through his shoulder for attempting the same thing.

Ha aving seized her, the giant raised the girl in his arma and rushed down the stairs out into the night. Faith tried to scream, but a huge band suppressed all outcry.

Cobb did not pause until he reached the woods. Here he eame to a halt, and allowed Faith to stand upon her feet. "It wont do no good to yell, miss. Yon can't escape me anynow," said the giant, with an oath.

Faith did not attempt to scream she was too weak and frightened to utter a word Just then:

Suddenly bright flames darted up in a dozen plaoes about the house, sending streams of light far out over the prairie. "Hello!" ejaculated Cobb, "the boys hev set the house afire, sure's the world. A good idee, as 'twill roast tbe old man and woman nicely."

Faith uttered a terrified moan and tottered forward, and Cobb caught her in his arma. She had fainted.

Soon the whole country was illuminated by the glare of the burning building. Cobb raised Faitn in bis arms and hurried further into the wood. As he did so a loud shout rent the air. He paused and looked back.

Several men were gathered about the burning house. They were Worland's farm-hands, who had boon roused by the fire. "I must get out of this," muttered Cobb. "Those fellows will be atter me pretty soon. Curse it, Burk was a fool to rouse the whole country with this light."

The farm-bands rushed into tbe burning building just in time to rescue Mre. Worland from the flames. She was still unconscious, and willing hands bore ber to tbe Aarm-house, not far distant, where old Tom Waters and his wife lived and boarded the men.

Mr. Worland was not found. The upper rooms were all aflame, and as Faith was nowhere to be seen, the men believed that she and her father bad both perished.

None of the men suspected the cause of the fire, since, when tbey reached the ground, the marauders had made good their escape.

Giles Worland was not dead, as Lawder supposed. The blow from the club had merely rendered him insensible lor the time. He was in full possession of his senses when tbe villains fired the house, and rose to bis feet the moment they had disappeared. Hastily climbing the' stairs, he discovered the fact that Faith was gone.

The flames were lighting up the prairie and woodland now. Peering out of the upper window he saw the villain Cobb km! his fair captive.

His anxiety for the safety of his child overcame all other thoughts. S&slng an jald ahot-gan that bung In the ft*11, the o}&man rushed from the house to tbe rescue of his child.

He heard the shouts of bis farm-boys, and then remembered tbe dangerous situation of bis wife. He saw that the men bad reached the bouse, and were entering it, and knew that bis wife wotild be saved then be ran rapidly on, entered the woods, and soon came cloee upon tbe giant abductor. "Halt!" he commanded, leveling his gun.

Cobb came to a stand, dropping hia burden and facing bis pursuer. Worland pullra the trigger. There was no report, only the snap of the cap. With a cry of triumph, the giant drew his bunting-knife and sprang upon tbe old pioneer.

The struggle was short. The giant hurled Worland to the earth, and planted his knee upon his breast. Then raising his knife, he struck full at the throat of bis fallen foe.

A wild, heartrendering scream pierced the air, as the life-blood of tne old pionoer flowed out, dying the long, gray hair With a crimson stain.

Ague Cure

Is a purely vegetable bitter and powerful tonic, and is warranted a speedy and certain cure for Fever and Ague, i:hl.-. and Fever, Intermittent or Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Asnr, Periodical or Bilious Fever, and nil malarial disorders. In miasmatic districts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst, lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in the hack and loins, and coldness of the spine and extremities, are only premonitions of severer symptoms which terminate in the ague paroxysm, succeedcd by high fever and profuse perspiration.

It is a startling fact, that quinine, nrsenic, and other poisonous minerals form the basia of most of the Fever and Ague Preparations," "Specifics," "Syrups," and Tonics," in the market. The preparations made from these mineral poisons, although they are palatable, and may break the chill, do not cure, but leave tho malarial and their own drug poison in the system, producing quinism, dizziness, ringing in the ears, headache, vertigo, and other disorders more formidable than the disease they wero intended to cure.
