I started to go down to Maiden lane,
but the afternoon was so far along that
I was apprehensive of not finding Mr.
Brown, so I deforrod my call until tho
morrow.
On my way up town 1 dropped in at
the Windsor, but learned that Mr. Sand-
husen had joined his family at their city
residenco. Then I decided that tho best
thing to do was to go to my hom . and
to that sweet, houest little wife who

Meanwhile I received tho best of
nursing. 1 was visited continually by*
the Bridges with whom I had engaged
quarters, and she and her husband weru
as anxious to help 1110 along tho rtiad
of recovery as were the couple with
whom I was forced to stay.
Th< y procured such articles as I need-
ed and handled mo with tho utmost
kindness and care. I had long been
forgiven for the littlodeception practic-
ed to obtain admission to the upper
floor, for I convinced them that tho

senses.
"Keep your secret 1" I exclaimed,
hastening back to my own room, where
I threw myself on the bed until I could
rally. "It shall remain a secret forever
if it can lie solved only through that
horrible taint."
I now began to figure when I conld

had been sunshiny and pleasant, ! catno
cold, rainy and dismal. It lasted threo
days before the skies cleared and the

To test myself, I walked in from tho
oountry, instead of allowing Mr. Bridges
to bring mo in bis carriage. One of tho
strangest things about my experience
with that dreadful drug was that when
I reached tho station I could not per-
ceive the slightest effects from it. I was
as strong, as robust, as powerful and
active as ever in all my life.
Duty called 1110 to Now York, and 1
went thither without delay. I was sorry
to learn afterward that my good wife
had begun to feel anxious about 1110;
but, not suspecting anything of tho kind,
I devoted a littlo time to work boforo

mado light of my experience and im-
pressed upon her that she should never
worry until a month or two went by
without hearing anything from 1110.
Even then it might bo that everything
was right.
I never saw a man more pleased to
meet another than was my friend Brown
the following day when I walked into
his store and offered my hand. Ho shook
it warmly and led the way back to his
office.
"I tell you, Wittner, ' ho said in his
hearty fashion, "Sandhusen nud I, and
I suspect your wife, havo been worrying
about yon."
"Why should you do flint? I iiavo

"Yes, but this whole business has
