SheV>a l never doubted that In would some day comtf back to her, and that her declining years would be cheered and gladdened by his loving presume©. bho would nt once consult her attorneys and take the proper steps to acct: re his restoration to ‘ society. In words of warmvst love she sent a motherly greeting to the dear girl whom she had never seem and lade her nephew say, to his ch< en .one that from his description of her beauty, grace of manner and lovely traits, of Character she. was already enthroned in a motherly heart which longed to welcome her a* a (Jaughtcr. The letter ‘concluded with these lines: “All I possess will be yours, my dearest Ned. When the Muster calls me from earth y< u will be a very wealthy man, and in anticipation of your early release and sul<scquent marriage 1 will at once place you in possession of half of the.wealth 1 possess, and then you can plan- your Ix'nhic' bride in the highest ,of society, for Which her tWluty, education and rare attainments s<> eminently fit her.” o ■. At th. ir 1!. <t nwrtipg th. young soldier placed the letter'in Alice’s hands, and asked her to read it, . As her eager eyes ran quickly over the written lines, •„ a look of perfect peace and'-sati.-.faction settled upon her lovely face. To her it seemed that the last barrier to their happiness was swept away by the pen Os the distant relative, arid w hen her eyes drank in the message of greeting to hcr-elf, the floodgate < fl.er soul was opened and tcarstFf s joy fell u;>.a the Open sheets l»cfore her.' “Ne<l. my darling, your dear aunt calls you 5 id. and may not I?

She discovered my love for you the day of your release from confinement, ami told mi* of your love '.'for my-elf. She read it in your eyes, dear, in the tones of our voices when the name of each was mentioned to the other, and she it Was who counseled me to avoid you until your t rue standing in life should befeome kmSwn. She believes in you, Ned, but prudently asked me to not forget that I had but your own unsupi ported statementof your Social standing, and that until the truth of your Story should tv established I must r. t compromise.myself by frequent meetings with you. ’ ‘This letter wiH remove ever:? doubt, from her mind. May 1 show it to her?” “If you wish you can do so. Alice, but the time has not yet eomc for the world to hear the story, and you must ask her to pledge her secrecy.” When Mrs. Colby reached that portion of the let ter referring to Alice, she exclaimed: * “Why, Alice, has this man declared his love for you?" “Yes, yes, Mrs. Colby; but read it all, and I will then explain.” The good woman finished the letter, and, clasping the girl to her heart in a loving embrace, said: “My sweet child, no further explana-' tion is necessary. You have won the love of a man in every way worthy of you, a man of wealth ’hud refinement, and every barrier to your union will soon melt away.

When he entered the room the old, was sitting at his desk > writing, and paid not the slightest attention to his presence. Cap in hand, his heart almost in his throat, the ' young soldier stood in tha middle of ! the floor for tally two minutes until the ■ ofiieer had completed the letter upon which he was engaged. * s Had Brown but known the mood the | old man was in, he would have, seen her fore him the hopelessness of his errand.

Knowing that he had traveled far and wide in scrtreh 0f some beneficial treatment f. r his ti'fiiction. the reporter asked the President to give some facts in his own case. He responded willingly. "Yes, 1 suffered twenty-five years from locomotor ataxia," Mr. Weiting said, “and during all that time I was seeking some relief. Well, I found it in Dr. Williams’Pink Pilis.
