LOVE'S LINK.

A sad fcfrocession Bought the church At noon of

4ay,

A 'weeping girl &k»e the winding summer way following the slow borne bier where mute ber lover lay. AAovm that flowered path there came a bridal band, The radiant wife stepped proudly, strong of heart and grand max all the solemn joy of lore's still wonderland. White garmented, like day dawned -clear with cloudless ski est Dark robed, like night o'ercaat that sees no star arisel They met, they paused they looked Into each other's eyes. And (bus, lor swift and sweet is lore's converging tide, the yottng wife wept as she turned aside— Theliopelesa girl who wept smiled on the new made bride. —Philadelphia Ledger,

CO, B'S DAUGHTER.

"A gentleman who -^doesn't know the /Ctroassian otroleoughtsiob to stand ap for it—puttin ^everybody out." That was what MissMoKenna said, and the sergeant -who was ®y vis-a-vta looked the same -ihing. I was afraid of Miss McKenna. fihe was6 feet high, all yellow freckles and led hair and was simply clad in white satin «hoe8, a pink mnslln'd^ess and apple green ttnff sash and black silk gloves, with yellow roses in her hair, wherefore I fled ifrom Miss MoKenna and soughtxay friend, .Private Mulvaney,'who was at •'the cant—• refreshment table. "So ye've been dancln 'with little .Jh&nei MoKenna, sons-she that's goin to many Oorp'ril Slane? Whin ye next center sh wid yer Itfrruds an yer ladles, tell thim ye've danced wid little Jhansi. 'Tis «fching to be proud av."

But I wasn't* proud. I was humble. I saw a story tn Private Mu'lvaney's eye, and, besides, if he staid tu 'long at the bar, be would I knew, qualify for more pack drill. Mow, to meet an esteemed friend Iolng pack drill outside the guardroom is •embarrassing, especially if you happen to ibe walking with his commanding officer. "Come en to the parade ground, Mul«Vaney—It's cooler there—arid tell me about rillss MoKenna. What isshe, and who is -abe, and why is she called-'Jhansi?' "D'ye mane to say ye've niver heard *av ould Pummeloe's daughter? An ye 'thlnkin ye know things I I'm wid ye

In a mlnlt, whin me poipe's lighted." We came out under the stars. Mulvaney gat down on one of the artillery bridges and began In the usual way, his pipe between his teeth. "Whin Mrs. Mulvaney that is was Miss Shad that was ye were a dale younger than ye are BOW, an the army Was diflf'rint in sev'ril esenshuls. Bhoys have no call for to marry nowadays, an that's why the army has so few rale, good, honust, swearln strapagin, tinder hearted,: heavy futted wives as at used to hav whin I was a oorp'ril. I was rejuced afterward: •—but no matther—I was a oorp'ril wansfc/ In thim times a man lived an died wid his rlgimlnt, an by natur'he married whin he, was a man. Whin I was oorp'ril—mother: av hlvin, how the rlgimlnt has died an been borrun since that day!—my. color sarjlnt was auld McKenna an a married nan tu. An his wolfe—his first woife, few he married three times, did MoKenna—was Bridget McKenna, from Portarlington, like meself. I've misromemberod fwhat her first name was. but in oomp'ny we Called her 'ould Pummeloe' by reason av her figure, whioli was entirely oiroum-feronshll—-like the big dhrum! Nov?, that woman—God rook her sowl to rest in glory —was for everlastin h&vin childher, an MoKenna, whin the fifth or sixth oome gquallin on to the musther roll, swore he wud number thim off in tho futur'.

'Tie long ago, an Mrs. Mulvaney niver had anothor. "I'm dlgresshin. Wan dlvil's hot summer there oome an order from some mad ijjit, whose name I mlsremembor, for the rlgimlnt to go up country. Maybe they wanted to know how tho new rail carried throopa. They knew. On me sowl, toby knew before thoy was done! Ould Pummeloe had just buried Muttra MoKenna,. -an tho sonson bein unwholeslm only little?

Jhansi MoKonna, who was 4 years ould thin, was left on hand. "Five childher gone in 14 months. •Twasharrd, wasn't ut? "So we wint up to our new station in •that blazln heat.

Whin all the things was full, ould Pummeloe marches back into camp—'twas like a battlefield wid all the glory missin —at the hid av the rigimint av women. 'McKenna, me man,' she sez, wid a voice on her like grand Toun's challenge, 'tell the bhoys to bo qulot. Ould Pummeloe's a-comin to look afther thim—wid •tree dhrinks.' "Thin we cheered, an the oheerin in the lines was louder than the noise ay the poor divlls wid the sickness on 1|im. But not muoh. "Ye see, we was a new an raw rlgimlnt in those days, an we cud make neither head^ nor tail av the sickness, an so we was useless. The min was goin roun an about like dumb sheep, waitln for the nex' man to fall over an sayin undher their spaohe: 'Fwhat is ut? In the name av God, fwhat is ut?' 'Twas horrible. But through ut till, upkan down an down an up, wiut ould Pummeloe an little Jhansi—all we oud see av the baby undher a dead man's helmet wid the ohin strap swingin- about her little etummick—up an down wid the water an fwhat brandy there was. "Now an thin ould Pummeloe, the tears runnin down her fat, red face, sez, 'Me bhoys, me poor, dead darlin bhoys!' But for the 'most she was thryin to put heart into ithe min an kape thim stiddy, an little Jhansi was tellin thim all they wud be'betther in themornin.' 'Twasathriok she'd pioked up from hearin ould Pummeloe whin Muttra was burnin out wid fever. In the morninl 'Twas the iverlastin mornin at St. Peter's gate was the moroin for seven an twinty good men, an twinty more was sick to the death in that bitter, burnin sun. But the women worked 'like angils, as I've said, an the men like divlls till two dootors oome down from above an we was rescued. "But just before that ould Pummeloe, ori her knees over a bhoy in my squadright cot man to me he was in the barriok —^tellin him the worrud av thei churoh that niver failed a man yet, sez: 'Hould sme up, bhoys! I'm feelin bloody sick!' *Twas the sun, not the oholera, did ut. She misremembered she was only wearin her ould black bonnet, an she died wid 'MoKenna, me* man,' houldin her up, an •the bhoys howled whin.they burled her. "That night a big wind blew an blew •an blew an blew the tents fiat. But ut •'blew the oholera away, an niver another 'Case there was all the while we was waitln —ten days in quarintin'. Ef ye will Hbelave me, the thraok of the sickness in 'the oamp was for all .the vrorruld the ^thraok av a man walkin four 'times in a Jfigur' av eight through the tents. They gay 'tis the Wandherin Jew takes the ohol-»-era wid him. I believe ut. "An that," said Mulvaney illogloally, "is the cause why little Jhansi MoKenna is fwhat she is. She was brought up by the quartermaster sarjint's wife whin

MoKenna died, but she b'longs to oomp'ny, an this tale I'm tellin ye—wid a proper appreoiashln av Jhansi MoKenna —I've belted into eve'y reoruity av the oomp'ny as he was drafted. Faith, 'twas me belted Corp'ril Slane into askin the girl!" "Not really?" 1 "Man, I did! She's no beauty to look at, but she's ould Pummeloe's daughter, an 'tis my juty to provide for her. Just before Slane got his wan eight a day I sez to him: 'Slane, sez I, 'tomorrow 'twill be insuhordinashin me to chastise ye but, by the sowl av ould Pummeloe, who is now in glory, ef ye don't givo me yer worrud to ask Jhansi McKenna at wanst, I'll peel tho flesh off yer bones wid a brass huk tonight. 'Tis a dishgrace to oomp'ny she's been single so long, sez I. Was I goin to let a 8-year-ould preshume to disooorse wid me, my will bein set? No! Slane wint an asked her. He's a good bhoy, is Slane. Wan av these'days he'll get into the oom'ssarlat an dhrive a boggy wid his—savin's. So I provided for ould Pummeloe's daughter, an now ye go along an danoe agin wid her/'

And I did. I folt a respect for Miss Jhansi MoKenna, and I went to her wedding later on.

Leprosy and Erysipelas.

Some time ago a report was published concerning the remarkable influence of an attaok of erysipelas on the leprosy, from whioh a patient had been suffering. Tho inourable nature of leprosy is one- of tho most distressing facta in connection with this grave disorder. The observation to which I allude was made on a distinctly leprous patient, and after the erysipelas attaok had passed away it was found that the leprosy Itself showed marked signs of improvement and amelioration. The hint which is thus given in the course of 'nature's experimentation upon us should not be lost sight of. The theory on which the explanation of the cure of leprosy through an attaok of erysipelas rests Is thai known as the antagonism of miorobes.

The erysipelas attaok probably liberates Into the blood and tissue some principle or antitoxine whioh is fatal to the growth of the leprosy bacilli. We find in such a oase the analogue of the antitoxine treatment of diphtheria by the serum of the horpjls blood. In Inaugurating such a gystevj of treatment it is obvious we have oipr been following out nature's own ways aid works. If erysipelas be found to be Jntagonistle to leprosy, it is dear the^vprse of future experimentation will be that of discovering exactly and praotioally the conditions updor which an inoculation of erysipelas germs may be curative, of the other andanore serious ailment* —London News.

He had a bow slung to his back, and la a quiver made of buffalo hide he had three or four arrows. In ids belt was the family bread knife, and in his right hand was a warelub. As he thus stood, casting his eagle eye about him, a telegraph boy oamo along and stopped and looked him over. The inspection lasted a foil minute, and then he asked: "Playing Injun?" "Yee."

You know they pay their medical ad-, vlsers only when they are well With Illness the fees stop. So far there has not oeen a oold and only one slight attaok of indigestion among m£ five children. I've offered a prize to eaoh one of themwho will preserve an unbroken reoord ttf health till the first day of May, and With this end in view they listened patiently, and, What is better, heedfully to my brief lecture at the beginning of the season on how to keep well.

Physicians Urgently Advise Use of Dr. Greene's Nervura.

Well Known Physicians Enthusiastic Their Statements of the Wonderful Curative Powers of Dr. Greene's Nervura.

DR.'JOB SWEET

One-of the most noted physloians and surgeons is Dr. Job Sweet, of New Bedford, Mass. He mates the public statement^bat be has often recommended the use of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy to his patients who have been Buffering from nervous troubles and he has learned that in a large number of these oases it has proven efficacious.

Dr. Willard H. Morse, F. B. S. So., of Westfield, N. J., thegreatexperton medicines, says of this grand discovery of Dx. Greenes— "The true remedy for nervous dis^B^s: is Dr.-Greene's Nervura blood ahdjperve reniedy. It acts by affecting the organs! of nutrition, and entering into the formation of new nerve tissue, which generates nerve force. This means the making of new nerves."

The well-known Dr. Emi) Neumer,! superintending physician of the N. Y.| Lodge and Association Hospital says: "We are using Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy at this hospital for our patients with gooJ success."

Dr. C. W. Cook, of Carmel, Ind., says:— "I have used Br. Greend's Nervura 'fclood and nerve remedy for my patients and have found the remedy all that was -claimed for it. The results have been ^entirely satisfactory. I think it is •worthy and I recommend its use."

Such enthusiastic endorsement by ^physicians stamps this remarkable ^medical discovery as the greatest restorer of health and strentgh.

[CONTINUED FROM SIXTH PAGE all the time racked by that ceaseles* cough 'I should like to live long enough to see justice done—after that let the end come when it may—I shall welcome it gladly. No, we will only go to the police as the last resource, and in the meantime we must try and devise some means of our own to bunt down our quarry.' He paced restlessly up and down the room, bis brow contracted in heavy thought. Of a sudden his faoe brightened, and he turned eagerly to me. "'John,' he cried—'that girl, that Miss Trevor, she lives near here, the paper gives her address—bow stupid of me not to think of her sooner.' "•What of that? 8be does not know where to find the men, you may be sure.' 'No, but she may prove the means of our finding thom. Don|tyou see? The newspaper account of how much or how little she knows 1b rather vague, and the members will want to know whether she will be able to give an accurate de scriptlon of the assassins.' ."'Well?' "'Well,' impatiently? 'Cannot yon guess the next move will be to attempt some kind of communication with ber —some one in disguise will probably be sent to find out exactly how much she really does know. I do not know how they will do it, but I feel sure that some suoh attempt will be made before many days are over. Now my plan is this you must try and get taken in as a lodger at that bouse, and you must always be on the watch to spot and follow any one —any Btranger—who may call and see

Miss Trevor.' "It was of no use for me to argue that 'Such an idea was impracticable, absurd, •or anything else—go I must, and with cut delay. Edmond stuck to bis point with the persistence of an invalid, and was fast working himself into a fever of excitement—so the result was—what we all know. I went to call on my friend the Vicar, whom I was obliged to take partly into my confidence, and armed with his introduction I was fortunate enough to get taken in as an inmate of your house. For the first month of my stay here nothing happened. Edmond had been mistaken—the assassins had evidently taken no alarm, but relied on the verdict of 'Murder against some persons unknown.1 More than once did I urge my brother, who, by the way, always hung back from allowing me to make him known to you, to let me leave here and return to look after him in his rapidly-increasing illness. But he as steadily refused, and each time I urged it more and more feebly as my love for

Minnie grew. At last, as Edmond and I were both giving up hope of the men making any move, came the announcement of the detective's intended call, and I felt that if the Society ever meant to reveal itself, it would do so now. "When I left here on Monday morning to tell my brother what I had seen in the paper, I found him very much worse, and it was when I returned here at twelve o'clock to say I should be detained all day that I found Minnie gone. Now you can guess what 1 went through in those two days. I knew in a t*i66 what had really happened to Minnie, and I was fairly distracted,—^torn in two by my love to my dying brother on the one hand, and to my promised wife on the other. But when the decisive moment came, I knew I could not leave Edmond to die alone—forgive me, Minnie—I did not love you any the less, dear, you know that, but I felt his need was the greatest. I could not leave his bedside for a moment, but one good thing I was able to accomplish, and that was to get him to sign a full account, written by him some time before, of the murder, with names and descriptions of the murders, for such a document, properly witnessed, would, I knew, prove more valuable than Minnie's evidence Edmond wished now that be had given the names to the police at first, instead of making me play amateur detective, but it was too late for regretting that, managed to get away for a few minutes after the document was signed, to oome and ascertain if there was any news of Minnie, and I was fortunate enough to meet Coyleu here, and confide the pre clous document to him, as you know Edmond died late last night, just before midnight, and I had barely closed his eyes ere I hurried back, hoping against hope, that the detective might have al ready been successful in his raid on the conspirators, and that Minnie had been restored to us. The rest you know." [TO BE CONCLUDED NEXT WEEK.]•'
