”1 was laid up with some kind of
pains. Some said it was Lumbago,
others Sciatica, and others again
Rheumatism. A few of my friends
suggested that It was lead poison,
but whatever It was It gave me a
great deal of pain, in fact, almost
completely crippled me. I had to uae
two canes to walk about and even
then It was a very painful task.
"A friend advised me to try Dodd’s
Kidney Pills and I began the treat-
ment. After I had used the first box
I was able to throw away one of the
canes and was contdderably Improv-

up so that 1 could go about free from
pain without any assistance and very
soon after I was completely cured,
well and happy, without a pain or an
ache. Dodd’s Kidney Pills seemed to
go right, to the spot in my rase and
they will alwayB have my greatest
praise.”

CHAPTER XIII.—Continued.
The hours grew older. At the head
of the hall the musicians manifested
more signs of their Inexorable purpose.
A sad protesting squeal came from thu
actoidion. The violins moaned, but
were held Arm. The worst might he
precipitated at any moment.
But again there was a transfer of
the general attention toward the upper
end of the hall. The door once more
opened, and there appeared a little
group of three persons, on whom there
was fixed a regard so steadfast and
so silent that It might well have been
seen that they were strangers to all
present. Of the three, one was a tall
and slender man, who carried him-
self with that ease which. Itself uncon-
scious, causes self-consciousness in
those still some generations back of
It Upon the arm of this gentleman
was a lady, also tall, thin, pale, with
wide, dark eyes, which now opened
with surprise that was more than half
shock. lastly, with head up and eyes
also wide, like those of a stag which
sees some new thing, there came a
young woman, whose presence was
such as had never yet been seen In the
hotel at Ellisvllle.
Astonished, as they might have been
by the spectacle before them, greeted
by no welcoming hand, ushered to no
convenient seat, these three faced the
long, half-lit room In the full sense of
what might have been called an awk-
ward situation. Yet they did not
shuffle or cough, or talk one with an-
other, or smile In anguish, as had
others who thus faced the same ordeal.
The three walked slowly, calmly, de-
liberately down Into what must have
been one of the most singular scenes
hitherto witnessed in their lives. As
they reached the head of the social
rank, where sat Mrs. McDermott, the
wife of the section boss and arbiter
elegantlarum for all Ellisvllle, the gen-
tleman bowed and spoke some few
words, though obviously to a total
of the room. “I’m pleased to meet ye
all this evenin'. Perhaps ye all know
Hattersleigh, and I hope ye'll all meet
me friend Captain Franklin, at me
side. We claim the intliroduction of
this roof, me good friends, and we wel-
come everybody to the first dance at
Ellisvllle. Ladles, yer very dutiful
servant! It’s well ye're lookin', Mrs.
McDermott; and Nora, gyurl. sure
ye’re charmin’ the night. Kittle, darl-
in’. how do ye do? Do ye remember
Captain Franklin, all of ye? Pipe
up, ye naygurs—that's right. Now,
thin, all bands, choose yer partners
fer the gr-rand march, sure, with
Jerry’a permission. Thank ye. Mrs.
McDermott, and me arm—so.”
The sheepish figures of the musi-
cians now leaned together for a mo-
ment. The violins walled in sad
search for the accord, the assistant in-
strument less tentative. AH at once
the slack shoulders straightened up
firmly, confidently, and then, their feet
beating In unison upon the floor, their
faces set, stern and relentless, the
three musicians fell to the work and
reeled off the opening bars.
A sigh went up from the assembly.
There was a general shuffling of shoes,
a wide rustling of calico. Then, slow-
ly, as though going to his doom. Curly
arose from out the long line of the un-
happy upon his side of the room. He
crossed the Intervening space, his
limbs below the knees curiously af-
fected, jerking his feet Into half time
with the tune. He trowed so low be-
fore tho llttlest waiter girl ibat his
neck scarf fell forward from his chest
and bung before him like a shield.
"May I hev the honor. Miss Kilty?” he
choked out; and as the llttlest waiter
girl rose and took his arm with a vast
air of unconcern, Curly drew a long
breath.
In his seat Sam writhed, but could
not rise. Nora looked straight In
front. It was Hank Peterson, who
‘ led her forth, and who. after the oc-

Popular With the Ladies.
There were few plainer men of hla
generation than the great lx>rd
Brougham, and as few who took so
little trouble to lugratlate themselves
Into tho favor of women. Yet he
might have picked and chosen among
the fairest of society beautiee. To a
question where Ixird nrougham was,

Scared the Boys.
A willy Englishman who sought to
save a tract of woodland and shrub-
bery from tho destructive attentions
of the boys of the neighborhood put
up a large board bearing the warn
ing: "Any one trespassing In this
plantation will be gplfllcated accord-
ing to the law." The result was very
satisfactory, as the fear of splfllca-
tlon. whatever It meant to them, de-
terred Intruders from passing through
the woods and the trees were unmo-
lested. _____

stranger, who was too startled lo
reply. The ladies bowed to the wife
of the section boss and to the others
as they came In turn. Then the three
passed on a few seats apart from and
beyond the other occupants of that
side of the house.
There was now much tension, and
the unhappiness and suspense could
have endured but little longer. Again
the accordion protested and the fiddle
wept. The cornet uttered a faint note
of woe. Yet once more there was a
pause In this time of Joy.
Again the door was pushed open not
timidly, but flung boldly back. There
stood two figures at the head of the
hall and In the place of greatest light.
Of these, one was tall and very thin,
but. upright as a shaft of pine. He
was elad In dark garments; thus much
might be said. His waistroat sat high
and close. At wrist and neck there
showed a touch of white, and a bit of
white appeared protruding at tho
bosom of his coat. His tread was
supple and easy as that of a boy of
twenty. “Ned. me boy,” ho whispered
done ao. for bis wife sat tilt the last
upon the row. Seeing this awful thing
happen, seeing the hand of Nora laid
upon another's arm. Sam sat up as one
barely by one vagrant ray of light
which left the massed shades plied
strongly about the heavy hair. There
came upon him at that moment, as
with a flood-tide of memory, all tho
vague longing, the restlessness, the
Incertitude of life which had harried
him before he had come to this far
land, whose swift activity had helped
him to forget. Yet even here he had
been unsettled, unhappy. He had
missed, ho had lacked—he knew not
what.
The young woman rose, and stood
out a pace or two from the shadows.
She turned her face toward Franklin.
Ho felt her gaze take in the uniform
of blue, felt the stroke of mental dis-
like for the uniform—a dislike which
he knew existed, but which he could
not fathom. With a strange, half-
shivering gesture the girl advanced
half a step and laid her head almost
upon the shoulder of the elder woman,
standing thus for one moment, tho
arms of the two unconsciously en-
twined, as is sometimes the way with
women. Franklin approached rude-
ness as he looked at this attitude of
the two, still puzzling, still seeking to
solve this troubling problem of the
past.
There came a shift In the mimic. The
air swept from the merry tune Into the
minor from which the negro Is never
musically free. Then in a flash Frank-
lin saw It all. He saw the picture.
His heart stopped!
This music, It was the wall of
trumpets! These steps, ordered,
measured, were those of marching
men. These sounds, high, comming-
ling. they were the voices of a day-
gone swiftly by. These two, this
one—this picture—It was not here, but
upon the field of wheat and flowers
that he saw It now again—that picture
of grief so Infinitely sad.
Franklin saw. and as he ga/.eii.
eager, half advancing, indecision and
irresolution dropped from him forever.
Resolved from out the shadows, where-
in it had never in his most intimate
self-searching taken any actual form,
he saw the image of that unformulatod
dream which had haunted his sub-
consciousness so long, and which was
now to haunt him openly and forever.
The morning after the first official
ball In Ellisvllle dawned upon another
world.
Ellisvllle, after the first ball, was by-
all the rules of the Plains admittedly
a town. A sun had set. and a sun had
arisen. It was another day.
To Edward Franklin the tawdry ho-
tel parlor on the morning after the
ball was no mere four-square habita-
tion. but a chamber of the stars. Be-
fore him, radlaut. was that which he
had vaguely sought. This other half
of himself, with feet running far to
find the missing friend, had sought him
out through all the years, through all
the miles, through all the spheres!
This was fate, and at this thought hts
heart glowed, his eyes shone, his very
stature seemed to increase. He wist
not of Nature and her ways of attrac-
tion. He only knew that here was
that Other whose hand, pathetically
j sought, he had hitherto missed in the
darkness of the foregone days. Now,
i thought he. It was all happily con-
| eluded, here in this brilliant chamber
of delight, this Irrodlant abode, thla
noble hall bedecked with gems and
■ silks and stars and all the warp and
woof of his many, many days of
| dreams!
Mr. and Mrs. Buford had for the
time excused themselves by reason of
Mrs. Buford's weariness, and after the
easy ways of that time and place the
young people found themselves alone.

Fire Caused by Snow.
A snowstorm started a fire on the
premises of a farmer living at Hebu-.

the course of the night snow fell on
to the lime,, and the heat thus devel-
oped became so great that it set the
shed on fire, completely destroying
It and its contents.

When Sam left the ballroom there
remained no person who was able to
claim acquaintance with the little group
who now sat under the shadow of the

hall, and farthest from the door. The
