The hot lblOOd mounted to his tem- ples. Perhaps Daisy regretted hav- ing married him and had fled from him. This thought was so bitter it almost took his breath away. Rex loved her so madly, so passionately, so blindly, he vowed to himself he would search heaven and earth to find her. And in that terrible hour ‘ 2. young husband tasted the. first draught of the. cup of bitterness when 11131 was .to drain to 'the very dregs.

C O 0 Early that morning there had. been great hustle and stir in the Brooks' cottage. Lu vain Daisy had atâ€" tempted to steal quietly away into her own little room and write a hasty line to tl‘tex, which, if all other means failed her, she could send to him by oneo-f the unencmployed in the fields, begging him to come to her at once. Snptima would (not leave her to her- self for u single instant. Even her writing-desk, which lhad stood on the bureau in the corner for years, was gone.

"I should like to say good-bye to the old familiar scenes, septim-i,” she. said, maloiug a desperate effort to meet ltex by some means. “i should likie to see the old magnolia- tree down tin the glade just once be- fore I go." “Nonsense,” replied Septima, sharp-- ly, a malicious smite- hovering about the corners of her mouth.

Why is it that in nreairly every home. in the land you find some'of Dr. Chase’s famiin remedies? \\ by is it that Dr. Chase is honored and esteemed as a true physician of unâ€" doubted skill? “'liy is it that Dr. Chase‘s th:;tey-Li\'er l’ills are‘ke-pt in the family medicine chest as indisâ€" pensable for- everyday ills which arise from constipation and sluggish action of the liver aind kidneys? . It is Protease Dr. Chase’s remedies are all honorable medicines. Medi- clues that have been tried in the seveiast oases and proven to be of most unusual value. They are imâ€" mensely successful, because everyâ€" body has learned to have confidence in them and confidence in their dis- coverer. Dr. Chase‘s Kidney~Liver Pills have for nearly aquarter of a o intury taken the lord as the great- est seller which medicine dealers handle, and this enormous sale is en-l merit. timely due to the downright which they possess. They cure when othvirs fail. It is when there is a. bitter taste in the mouth, heaviness about the stomach, headaches, pains in the shoulders and limbs, and depressed, languid feelings, that people turn to Dr. Chase's Kidneyâ€"Liver Pills. Torpid liver, inactive kidneys and irregular bowels are the cause of at least seven tenths of human ills. Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills invigorate these organs as no o'h-ar preparation was ever known to do; and what is best_ of all they not merely afford relief but strike deeper and make thorough and lasting c-u‘res.

Among the old families in the lonn:.liip of Augusta, in the neigh- borng county of Grenville, there is none better known or more influen- tial, than those that bt-ar the name of lli:sell.‘l‘iiu llissulls were among the earliest settlers in the township and have ever since taken an active part in all moch to promote its welfare. The subject of thcir nnrruq tire, Mr. Silas [Last-ll, is one of the younger my min-rs of the, family, who some yt-ars ago ‘ct't (.‘anada to make the of Nebraska. Ilc has pass-d through an experience almost unique, and considers that he is fortunate in being alive to tell the tale. Tilt: ()d‘t H his home in state story as told in Mr. Blast-it's words, is as follows:-â€"“ln the autumn of INN l sustained a serious injury through having the titles of a pitclifork LlL‘Ilt irate my left knee. The “mind apparently healed, but I did not‘ enjoy the same health Ihud pre- vious to the act-iiinnt, and it was but :1 short: time before I was compelled to take to my It at on account of ex- cruciatingl in my limbs and stiffness in my joints. A doctor was called in, and the knee three times, and then told me the trouble was blood poisoning. He treated me for Some timo, but I steadily grew worse, and finally five physicians were called in for consul- tation. My entire system seemed to be affected, and the doctors said the trouble had reached one of my lungs, and that: they could hold out but lit- tle hope of my recovery, After re- maining in bed for eleven weeks, I decided that I would return to my old home in Canada. I was so much run down, and so weak that it was a question whether Lwould live to reach there, but I was nevertheless determined to make an effort to do 50. pain s lie lanced After a long journey under these most trying circumstances, Ireached my old home. I was so used up, and presented such an emaciated appear- ance that my friends had no thought that I Would recover. I continued to drag along in this condition for sev- eral months, when one day a cousin asked me why I did not try Dr. \Villiams‘ Pink Pills. I was willing to try any medicine that was likely to cure me, and I sent for a supply of the pills. After I had been using the pills for about three weeks Ifelt an improvement in my condition. From that time I gradually grew better, new blood seemed coursing through my veins, the stiffness in my joints disappeared, and the agonizing pains which had so long tortured me vani- shed. I took in all ten or twelve boxes of Dr. “'illiams’ I’inik Pills, and [have into hesitation in saying that I believe they saved my life, for when {returned to Canada, Ihad no hope of recovery. Mr. Bissell has since returned to his old home at Lincoln, Neb., but the statements made above can be vouched for by any of his friends in this section, and by all of the neigh- bors in the vicinity of his old home. Dr. \Villiams" Pink Pills cure such apparently hopeless cases as Mr. Biss:ll's because they make new, rich, red blood, and thus reach the root of the trouble. These pills are the only medicine offered the public that can show a record of such marâ€" vellous cures after doctors had failed. if you are at all unwell, this mediâ€" rinc will restore you to health, but be sure you get the genuine with the full name “Dr. \Villiams‘ Pink Pills for Pale People,“ on the wrapper around each box. .,.__ Mrs. Churchâ€"Your name is not spelled right on this list.
