IN THE SILENCE.
They are out of the chaos of living,
T l «* wreck and debris of tha years;
Thoy have passed from the struggle and
striving.
They huve finished their goblet of tears:
They have ceased, one by one, from their
labors,
So we clothed them In garments of rest,
And they entered the Chamber of Si-
lence—
G«m1 do for them now what Is bestl
We rhw not the lift of the Curtain
Nor heard the Invisible Door
Ah they passed where life's problems
uncertain
Will follow and vex them no more.
We lingered and wept on the threshold—
The threshold each mortal must cross -
Then we laid a new wreath down upon it.
To mark a new sorrow and loss.
Then hack to our separate places
A little more lonely we creep,
With a little more eare In our faces,
The wrinkles a little more deep.
Ami we stagger. Ah (lodi how w« stagger
As we 1111 tho "id load to our back*
A little more lonely to carry
For want of the comrade we lack.
But into our lives, whether chidden
Or welcome, God's comforters come;
His sunshine waits not to he hidden.
Ills stars-they are always at home;
His mornings are faithful. His twilights
Allay i hr day's f< \ er .1 n<J frel.

To slumber, and dream, and forget.
O Spirit of Infinite Kindness,
And gentleness passing all speech!
Forgive when we miss In our blindness
The comforting Hand Thou dost reach.

To soften the grief of the world;
For us Is the calm of the mountain.
For us Is the roseleuf uncurled!

"You are ready to agree to any

that his brother was pacing up and
down the room.
James Ellison came over and laid
his hand on the other'* shoulder.
"Trouble enough. I have reason
to believe that Frale is still living.
1'e was here but an hour ago, or one
who resembles him."
The brother sank back In his chair
and uttered a long-drawn \yhistlo as
iie cast away his cigar.
"Come, this matter is serin is,"
looking up. "And where might this

Mlison sat watching the
dazed sort of condition, as
expected him to appear
Hendricks did not appear.
after a moment's hesitation
rushed out into the hail, er««ssi
and, passing through a iiarr< v/
sage and then a dressing-room,
reached the windows that opened on
the park in front of the house.
He saw Hendricks pass out
through tho front door and walk
with a lazy air down the main ave-
nue that led to the gates. Not once
did he stop to look back at the house
ti at he had just left.
Kilison, who was wato'dng, saw
him disappear beyond the lodge-
keeper's gate, and returned to the
library shaking his head and mat-
tering to himself.
As he entered the room, he start-
ed back in dismay at the si^l t of a
strange man in tatter d clothes who
waseated at the desk he had just
left, and was putting on a cigar that
lie had evidently extracted from one
of the drawers.
James Ellison slammed tho door
behind him with an angry gesture,
which did not iu the Ten 1 seem t«<
disconcert the shabby indis iuiinl with
the cigar.
"I wish you wouldn't make Midi a
noise, Jimmy," remarked tho latter,
as he blew a smoke wreath into the
air and watched it fade away. El
lison stepped forward and pushed
him into a sitting position, his ovorv
gesture betraying the anger h> felt.
The shabby man shook off the
grasp, made a pretense to brush bis
dirty sleeve, and looking up calinlv.

not Frale himself (and he speaks
like an educated man, while the
other was unlearned), at least he
knows enough to give me a great
deal of trouble. But why am I wast-
ing all this time on you?" as he
seemed to notice for the first time
his brother's rags. "Go your own
way, and I will go mine."
The ragged man rose and twirled
his mustache with n dainty air.
"My brother, you have said that
once before," and then, bending over
the table that stood between them
and shaking a soiled finger in El-
lison's face, he said: "You are verv
haughty now, but I believe that we
shall both go down together, and
now to make myself beautiful in a
suit of your clothes," and he opened
a door and passed through, while
his brother dropped into a chair,
overcome with impotent rage.
CHAPTER Yir.
PASSING SHADOWS.
Hendricks left the park in a
thoughtful mood, lie had much to
ruminate on. It was strange how
his thoughts ran on that ragged indi-
\idual he had seen for a moment out
of the window, the man who seemed
to worry Ellison so much, more
than anything else that had happened
during the visit.
"Why was he so worried lest the
fellow should be seen?" he asked him-
self on the way back to the town.
"Can it be that that person is in
any way connected with the tragedy?
Well, time will tell." It was only
when lie entered the town that lie
remembered his brief interview with
the blind man. He felt so sure that
his fancies had misled him that he
was delighted to see that worthy
seated 011 the steps of the meeting-
house, soliciting in a quavering voice
charity from passers-by.
"It must have been a fancy after
all that man could not be here,"
muttered Job, as he approached the
blind man again.
I he patriarch was seated on the
stone steps of the church, his hat was
IT, and he seemed to be trying to get
breath of fresh air, a modicum of
the faint breeze that lnuj sprung up
just then.
e is a little to help you along,
fiiend," and Hendricks dropped a
d me in the tin cup ho wore about
his waist.
manner of man lie had to deal witK
Certainly the stranger comported
himself in a quiet way, and Mr. Ilovv-
ersox had about decided that, ?< r
all his questioning, he could not be
connected with the police.
His opinions of the stranger who
had paid so well in the first instance
were rather marred when the guest's
luggage appeared from the depot.
It consisted of a very small valise
that might have contained a doll's
wardrobe.
"1 should like to have it taken up
to my room," said Hendricks.
"Ye might manage to carry it up
yerself," was the testy remark of
the landlord, as visions of a default-
ing boarder rose before him.
Hendricks snatched the satchel
out of the hands of the little darky
and turned toward the stairs.
You can find your way up, I
hopes," said Bowersox, who was be-
ginning to think that he had treated
his guest in a very unfriendly man-
ner.
Well, I know the number, and
you say that the room is open," re-
torted Hcndrick
"But let me show 3*011 "
"I don't want to take you away
from your business," and the one
guest of the house disappeared.
Peter returned to his work of pol-
ishing glasses, not quite able to make
out whether he had been insulted or

nd then, taking off his glasses, pro-

Job turned away, shaking his
icad. after looking the beggar over
lowly and carefully.
"Well, 1 am certainly getting fool-
■di in my old age. There, I fancied
when I first saw the fellow that he
is looking for me." He rubbed his
es for a moment, and then: "Job,

lie resumed his road, and yet he
did not feel wholly at ease as lie
made his way to tiie Bluebell.

Job Hendricks, when lie found him-
self alone in the hall, laughed softly
to himself and wagged his gray head
sagely.
I hev are all alike the world over,"
he muttered. "The sight of my
money tickled him, but when the bag-
gage arrived he sings another song.
Well, it is rather scant provision for
a traveler," looking at the little va-
lise as he held it at arm's length.
"But, then, I shall not have so much
to lose in case of being compelled
to make a quick flit."
He found his room without any
trouble, but before he entered it he
walked through the corridor until
lie came to another flight of stairs,
which lie could see communicated
with the yard.
" That's good. I may have need of
you, but 1 hope not. At least, it is
well to provide for being in a cor-
ner."
Ho went back to his room, and
then, opening his scanty luggage on
the table, took from the bag a collar
and a couple of gaudy neckties, one
a vivid blue and the other a plaid of
red and green.
"It is so long since I made a call on
a young lady," as if trying to d oxide
which one he should wear. "Pshaw,
what does it matter! It ain't likely
she'll notice what I have on. Now,
for a little nap. I'd rather see her
in the evening, anyway. Might ap-
pear a strange-acting man in broad
daylight, and I need all my wits about
me, anyway." lie flung the necktie
in the drawer of the little bureau,
saw to the fastening of the door, and
examined a handsome pistol which
he brought out of an inner pocket.
This he placed under the pillow of
the bed, and then flung himself down
with the air of a man who is utterly
exhausted.
But it was a long time before he
could compose himself to sleep. He
lay there on his back with his eyes j
fixed on the ceiling. His thoughts,
however, could not all have been un-
pleasant, for the stern fnce now and
again relaxed and he smiled. lie
took the parchment out of his pock-
et, which he had gone through so
much trouble to procure that day,
and read it over and over. There
was a softening expression in his
eyes as he folded it slowly and placed
it carefully back in an inner pocket
of his vest. After that he fell into
a peaceful sleep.
He must have slept lightly, for to-
ward evening a faint sound in the
hall roused him. lie slipped to the
floor noiselessly, and looked around
him in a frightened way. Only fon-
a moment, and then a quiet smile
came over his rough lips.
Still he maintained an attitude of
attention, for the faint rustling
sound in the hall continued, as if
some one was moving about there
anxious not to be heard. He almost
imagined that he saw a bright eye
at the keyhole regarding him.
At last, after a moment, unable
to bear the suspense, and vet blam-
ing himself for what he believed to
be foolish fears, he stepped to the
door, turned the knob without noise,
and flung it wide. There was 110 one
there. Off in the gathering shad-
ows at the further end of the corri-
dor he thought he saw a dark figure
glide away.
"Bah! I'm full of fancies," he mut-
I tered, shaking his head, and returned
to his room. "When there's danger
to face- that's different. But to be
frightened at every passing shadow
is nonsense."

night. I meant to tell you before,
so's ye wouldn't be skeered."
"I am not easily frightened," re-
plied Hendricks, at the same time
ea ting an inquisitorial look at his
landlord. After all it was not worth
making a fuss about. He was begin-
ning to feel ashamed of his own fool-
ish fears, that had such a slight foun-
dation. Hearing the rattle of the
dishes in the dining-room beyond, lie
changed the subject by asking for
some supper. He made a poor meal,
and then having inquired the way to
the lawyer, .fared Hcnslow's house,
he went out in the gathering night.
"Declare I feel as excited as a
schoolgirl going 10 her first ball,"
he said to himself. "I haven't the
nerve I was once celebrated for. Job,
you'll have soon to confess that you
are getting old and useless."
At some distance from the inn he
paused to look back. Was it one
more of his fool fancies that the
shutters of a room on the first floor
moved as if some one was taking
a view of him?
He drew himself up with a laugh
as be strode through the gathering
dusk down the village street.
And I am trying to save another
man," he muttered. "It would be
funny if it wasn't so melancholy a
fact that I'm perhaps hunted for
at this moment myself."

"STONE WALLS DO
PRISON."
Job had 110 trouble in finding his
way to the lawyer's house, despite
the gathering night, lie waiked like
a man who is sure of his way. As
he came nearer the humble-looking
cottage he paused for a moment in
hesitation.
"Looks like the abode of innocence
and peace." lie muttered. "Foxes are
careful not to betray the character
of their holes from the outside. I
wonder how the years have dealt with
the worthy Ilenslow? I hardly
thought a man of his ambitions
would be satisfied to rust in a coun-
try town all his life."
He approached nearer the house,
and stood for a moment looking up
at the windows.
"Not a light in sight. I wonder
if the family are all away. At least
she is here, and that is all I care for.
E should not like greatly to come
in contact with the lawyer."
lie moved around to the side of
the building, and stood for a mo
ment debating what to do under the
circumstances. The place wore such
a deserted look that he was unde
elded.
As he stood there in the shadow of
a tree he was aware of a step in
the road, and drew back closer into
the shadows. A man came into
view whose features lie could not
make out, but who seemed to be
dressed in well-fitting clothes, and
carried himself with a certain jaunty
air.
The newcomer, as lie approached
the house, seemed to be looking from
right to left, as if he feared to be
seen. He walked past the building,
peering into 1 lie shadows. Job Hen-
dricks crowded back against the
fence among the bushes, and won-
dered why he was not discovered.
The stranger, having satisfied him-
self that there was 110 one in the
neighborhood, went up to the front
door of the cottage and rapped on it
softly in a peculiar way.

Catarrh Causes Female Diseases.
America is the land of nervous women
J he great majority of nervous women
ait; .so because tliey are suffering from
some form of female disease, li.v far
the greatest number of female troubles
are caused directly by catarrh. These
women despair of recovery. Female
trouble is so common, so prevalent,
that they accept it as almost inevitable.
The greatest obstacle in the way of re-
covery is that they do not, understand
tliat it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness.
In female complaint, ninety-nine

but catarrh.
