Headache, rheumatism,

on the nerves. Almost
instant relief can be ob
tained by taking Dr. Miles

Take one on first indica

ward it off. They are a
pleasant little tabiet, sold
by druggists everywhere,

never sold in bulk.
“I was subject to constant head
aches for a period of four years. At
times I was almost unfitted for the
work in which I run engaged, that of
station agent. Through the advice
of a friend I tried Dr. Miles’ Anti
Pain Pills, and the tesult has been
that I have entirely eradicated my
system of those continuous headaches
that follow a continual mental strain.
They have done for me all that is
claimed for them.”

IA Girl and |
f A Garden.!
i :.~= L-- %
f By FronH, H. Wilhamj. A
+ Copyrighted. 1908, by Associated T
Literary Press. J
“I could love you,” said the pretty
neighbor, aud then as the man impet
uously reached for her she added quick
ly, “for your garden!”
The man's face fell.
“Now, I call that downright mean,”
declared the man vigorously. “You’re
1 a nice, pretty neighbor. Here I’ve been
courting you aud making love to you
for months, and now 1 find that it's not
me. but my garden, that's made an in
pression. I’ll sell the garden," he add
ed roughly.
The pretty neighbor clasped her hands
In real distress.
“Oh, don’t!” she cried. “You don't
really mean that! Think how long it's
been in your family! Think how much
care your mother and your grandmoth
er and your great-grandmother spent
on all these dear flowers!”
“Time I was selling it!” growled the
man. “I’ll get an old factory, a baker>
or something of that sort here!"
“Oh, oh!” cried the pretty neighbor.
“I mean It!” cried the man. “I’ll
shirt right away.”
Wholly distressed, the pretty neigh
bor, her hands tightly clinched, watch
ed the man as he went down one of
the paths toward a gay little summer
house.
She was standing near a wall, beside
a little fountain, aud all about her the
garden was a bower of beauty. Vistas
between the trees radiated from the
spot where she stood. Birds sang in
the trees. She could hardly realize that
"WHAT AHE YOU OOISO TO DO?" TUI
G1KD ASKED.
the big, hurrying city was just on the
other side of the wall.
From the summer bouse she saw the
uian come out.' In one hand he car
ried a big white board, in the other a
bucket of paint aud a brush. When he
reached the pretty neighbor he placed
the board against, the wall and with
out a word took up the brush.
“What are you going to do?” the girl
asked somewhat tremulously.
“Paint,” answered the man laconic
ally.
With fascinated ejes the girl watch
ed him as the letters grew under bis
brush. Across the top of the board he
painted In big brutal letters the words,
“For Sale.”
The pretty neighbor caught her
breath as the cruel sentence, haring
red, stared at her from the board. Un
derneath these words the man worked
Industriously for a little time.
While he worked the girl gazed back
at the garden with tear dimmed eyes.
When he had finished the man gave a
little sigh of satisfaction. The girl
looked at the sign again and gasped.
“For Sale,” it read. “This Garden,
Suitable For a Factory. Apply Within
to Martin Connor.”
“You—you aren’t going to nail that
sign up, are you?" questioned the girl,
perilously close to tears.
“Sure!” ejaculated the man.
The man picked up the sign, holding
It awkwardly to save his clothes from
paint, and, with the bucket and brush
in the other hand, again went toward
the gay little summer house. He whis
tled as he went, but the girl, who fol
lowed. with difficulty stifled her sobs.
At the summer house the man de
posited his painting utensils arid se
cured hammer and nails. Still whis
tling, he led the way through a se
cluded little iron gate to the street.
Once outside, the man carefully nail
ed the sign to the wall. When the
work was finished he stepped back a
bit to admire it. The girl, who had
watched the proceedings, cried out at
this.
“You’re perfectly horrid!” she cried.
“I hate you!”
Then the pretty neighbor, frantically
dabbing at her eyes with an absurd lit
tle handkerchief, ran across the street
to her own home.
When the pretty neighbor awoke the
nest morning she could not think at
3rst what sorrow was near her. Then
it came to her in a jump. The garden
was to be sold! She shuddered as she
thought of the heartless sign and de
cided that she would never, never
leok st ft again.
A moment later ahe was at the win
fiow, peering out at the garden wall
opposite. Her heart gave a little
bound as the blank face of the wall
met her ga*e. The slgu was gone.
It was a very merry pretty neigh
bor that hailed Martin shortly after.
“Ho," cried the pretty neighbor, bold
ly walking through the little Iron gate
into the garden—“ho, I knew you
didn't mean to sell your garden! You
thought you’d scare me Into loving
you!"
The man. who had been weeding,
looked up at her. He wore an old
broad brimmed straw hat that In
some undefinable way made him seem
even more strikingly handsome than
ever.
“You're wrong.” he declared slowly.
“It’s sold!”
••What!" cried the pretty neighbor
In consternation
“Yes,” replied the man.
“And some one’s going to put up a
horrid, grimy factory here?” walled
the pretty neighbor.
“Ferhaps,” said the man listlessly.
“I’m glad you came over,” he went
on. “I was afraid I’d have to go with
out saying goodby to you.”
“Goodby?” asked the girl, her face
a picture of surprise and dismay.
“Y'es,” the man went on, “I’m going
away. My train leaves at noon. Y'ou
may never see me again.”
“Why—why are you going?” stam
mered the pretty neighbor very woe
fully.
The man looked up at her quickly.
“There’s nothing for me to stay here
for,” he replied without animation,
evidently not finding what he hoped
In the girl’s face.
“I’m sorry.” said the girl finally.
She extended her hand. In silence
he shook It. Slowly she went toward
the gate. When she was atmost there
the man called to her.
“I’m a brute,” he declared contritely,
“for letting you thluk for a minute
that I’d ever really let a factory be
erected here. Since you love the gar
den so you’ve a right to know that the
man who has bought It is your father.
He will not disturb it for some time—
not for the present at least."
“Oh!” cried the girl. For a moment
her face was radiant, then suddenly It
went sad again.
“Wouldn't you—won’t you come back
some time and visit my father's gar
den?” she asked.
“No, I'll not come back,” the man re
piled. “It—It would hurt too much.
Goodby.”
“Goodby,” repented the girl nnd
slowly went through the little iron
gate, across the street to her home.
Several times during the next hour
she looked at the dock and involuuta
rlly sighed. The morning was going
very fast, it seemed. Faster nnd fast
er the time flew on toward noon. 1’res
ently it was 10:30, then 10:45 and then
11 o’clock.
When the morning reached this
point the pretty neighbor was sudden
ly galvanized into action.
"Good gracious!” she cried, jumping
from the chair where she had been en
deavoring to read a book. “Good gra
cious, he may be gone, and I haven’t
found out where he Is going!’’
Without more ado the pretty neigh
bor raced out of the house and across
the street to the little iron gate. The
gate was locked! Wildly site tore
around the wall to the great front
gate. Through this she ran tip the
shady, curving path to the big house.
Suddenly, as at high speed she bore
around a particularly sharp curve, site
plumped right into the arms of the
man. The latter, when he saw that
it was the pretty neighbor, dropped the
suit case he had been carrying and
drew her closely to him.
“Dear, dear sweetheart." he cried, "I
simply can't leave you! 1 can’t do it!’’
lie hugged her so tightly that she
fairly gasped for breath. However, the
pretty neighbor had enough breath left
to gasp a reply—a very faint reply.
“Don’t go," site said, burrowing her
head into his coat. “Don’t go. It's not
your garden I want. It’s not your gar
den I’m in love With. It's you!”
