Inez opened her eyes languidly to
another day. but suddenly her listless-
uess gave way to an excellent exhibi-
tion of activity. With a wild shriek
she sprang from the couch, for there

She rushed from the room of the
low hacienda, all of whose apartments
opened on the wide veranda that ex-
tended all the way around It. and
rushed unwittingly into the arms of
the tall American officer that hap-
pened to be passing. She was

hastily Into the room, crushed the
nuge spider beneath his heel, and then,
willy-nilly, raised the still trembling
bit of humanity and kissed her on
Ihe cheek, saying. •'Nifla (my child)—
fjiere. little girl, do not be frightened,"
and walked unceremoniously away.
Inez's cheek burned, not because he
had kissed her. for, truth to tell, she
had been kissed before, but at liis
words.
"Child, little girl, am I!" she ex-
claimed. and her black eyes flashed.
The idea of calling her a little girl.

heart and hand of Don Juan Dorado.

Little girl, indeed! She would show
him! And in that moment she re-
solved to bring the tall, handsome
American to her feet.
The American offlcer, on leave of
absence, was visiting Santa Cruz with
the object, so. at least. It was noised
about, of buying a silver mine. Ob.
yes! When it came to buying silver
mines, they all had one to sell In Sautn

Inez was delighted. She almost
threw herself Into his arms there and
then, but she restrained herself ami
gave vent to her Joy In variously in-
tonated "Ohs" and "Ahs."
Would she walk In the garden by
moonlight? Oh. yes! Although, in-
deed, It was against Spanish custom
to be so familiar with a man. But the

Oh. yes! The captain, was Up-
pressed. He admired openly and al-

in the manner in which he compli-

American could make love. No doubt
of It! He sat listening, enraptured,
while Inez twanged b*>r mandolin and

to him. And he sighed deeply when
she bad finished.
"Ah." he murmured softly. "If you

Decidedly the American was already

triumph. She would bring him to

affuir began to progress ftnely. Each
day he grew more sentimental ami j
she felt that every visit enmeshed hitu ;
more and more in her toils. Poor .
girl, she could not play with flre with- 1
out burning her own Angers—or. to be
more correct, searing her own heart.
Onq Jsj her captajn. as she began to j
call him. came with new#
"The government is going 'o station 1
He could
kiss her before she could get away,
but he does not. Fool thai he is. doeg
he not see that he may? She is dis-
appointed, but never mind.
"Oh. my captain." she gurgles,
leaning closer to him. and pressing his
arm to her as they walk slowly down
the pathway, "is it not delightful? So
sllll and lovely and the moon so sil-
very bright!"
"Ah," laughs the captain "Is It not
just a night for a lover," and he
presses her arm tenderly.
Inez looked at him coqueltlshly and,
laughing a gleeful, heart-free laugh,
she plucked a scarlet daisy from Its
stem.
"See." she tried, bewitchingly. "I
will test my lover's love. Unos. doa.
Ires." she counted, "one two. three—
he loves, he loves me not. he loves—
Ah, he loves," she cries, dancing with
glee, but in a moment she was quiet.
Looking up soulfully she asks, "Ah.
my captain, tell me, do you think he
lo\es?''
"To be sure." the captain answers,
laughing antl tilting her little chin
up with his hand, "how could he help
loving >ou?"
At that moment there was a cry.
"Inez. Inez!" It was Donna Alvaro
calling her.
"Oh," thought Inez, "how provok-
ing " But before tbev went Into the
bouse Bhe whispered, "you will come
to see me to-morrow?"
"Oh yes." the captain whispered In
return, bnt he reckoned without his
superior at the Post.
In the morning Inez almost wept
when she heard that her captain had
been suddenly called back to the Post.
He did uot even say farewell to me.
she wailed to herself But the news
had a mitigating element. Cascaro. the
town gossip, brought it.
"Ah. doe* the Senorlta know, he
said insinuatingly, "tbe Gran Capitan
j has bought himself the Hacienda Do-
I lores but yesterday. No? Oh. but he
has. And he told me. yes, to me. my-
self, that he Is going to live there

Captain said to me. will take pity
upon me before long and be my wife.
i Quien aabe? At any rale.' he had said.
yea. he took me into bis confidence, be
; "aid, i have one In view, and perhaps

Cascaro threw his arms out in ex-
pressive Spanish wa> and tbe heart of
Inez beat loudly within her breast.

he asks me." Tbe fire that she tad

spirit of that morning when he had
kissed her and called her "Nina."
Two weeks later, there was a great
comgnotion in Santa Cruz. The whole
town turned out to welcome the com-
ing of tbe cavalry company.
"Ah, there comes the train." some-
one shouted. People craned their
necks and every one was excited. The
train puffed and snorted into the sta-
tion and the platform was soon bright
with blue uniforms and clanking
sabres.
There was the "Gran Capitan." Inez
ran forward to meet him, extending
both hands aa welcome. The captain
took but one of them.
"Ah, Inez, delighted to see you." he
said. Turning to a beautiful girl by
his side, he continued. "Alice, this is
the Senorlta that I was telling you
about."
"This is my wife." he added to Inez.
"We were married yesterday. You—
both of you, must be good friends."
"Oh." murmured Inez stiffly, "1 am
—glad—to meet—your wife.
The words choked her and she hur-
ried away to hide ber chagrin.
fhe next Issue of the weekly Clang-
or,' a newspaper of Santa Cruz, and,
in fact, the only paper of southern
New Mexico, contained the following
announcement:
"We take pleasure in announcing
that the bans have been published for
the marriage of Don Senor Juan Do-
rado and Senorlta Inez Alvaro. The
Senor is one of our prosperous Span-
ish citizens, while the Senorlta Is con-
sidered the belle of Santa Cruz. We
wish them luck."
GROWTH OF THE TELEPHONE.
Number of Message* in 1904 Estimat-
ed at 5.000.000.000.
From a modest beginning, twenty-
five years ago. to the place which the
telephone occupies in the world's life
to-day, says Cent Per Cent, is a
growth of 'which the mind can form
no adequate conception from mere fig-
ures. but It Is a low estimate to place
the number of messages exchanged
in the Cnlted States in 1904 at 5,000,-
000,000, for that was the amount of
1902. The Cleveland Finance cms

clnde all but business messages, and

forms of communication, at ten min-

amount of time saved In the year

000,000 minutes, or 416.6tj«.66f hours,
or 17.361.111 days, or 4.830 years.
The profits on the telephone busi-
ness in America are placed approxi-
mately at the annual figure i f $5o,o<mi,-

saved by the semi-automatic tele-
phone exchange that is now being in-
troduced: but in order to get a just
conception of the value of such tin in-
vention. we must add the enormous
amount of additional ttme which will

Prior lost his temper for a moment

DR. LLEWELLYN JORDAN, Medi-
cal Examiner of the U. S. Treas-
ury Department, graduate of Co-
lumbia College, and who served three
years at West Point, has tbe follow-
ing to say of Peruna:
"Allow me to express my grati-
tude to you for the benefit derived
from your wonderful remedy.
One short month has brought
forth a vast change and / now
consider myself a well man after
months of suffering. Fellow suf-
ferers, Peruna will cure you."
A constantly Increasing number of
physicians prescribe Peruna in their
practice. It has proveu Its merits so
thoroughly that even the doctors have
overcome their prejudice against so-
called patent medicines and recom-
mend it to their patients.
Peruna occupies a unique position
In medlnal science. It is the only in-
ternal systemic catarrh remedy
known to the medical profession to-
day. Catarrh, as everyone will admit,
Is the cause of one-half the diseases
which afflict mankind. Catarrh ant]
catarrhal diseases afflict one-half of
the people of United States.
Robert R. Roberts, M. D.t Wash !
ington, D. C., writes:
••Through my own experienceJ
as well mm that of many of myl
friends mod acquaintances who
have been cured or relieved of ca-
tarrh by the uae of Hart ma n't
Peruna. I can confidently recom-
mend It to thote Buffering from such ]
disorders, and have no hesitation In <
prescribing ft to my patients."—1
Robert R. Roberts.
Catarrh is a systemic disease cur-
able only by systemic treatment. A
remedy that cures catarrh must aim
directly at the depressed nerve cen-
ters. This is what Peruna does.
Peruna immediately invigorates the
nerve-centers which give vitality to
the mucous membranes. Then catarrh

disappears. Then catarrh is per-
manently cured.
If you do not derive prompt and
satisfactory results from the use of
Peruna. write at once to Dr. Hart-
mann, giving a full statement of your
case, and he will be pleased to give
you his valuable advice gratis.
