A Controtonips 'Miss Lhoy Kbndall, 146 BROFOBD IlOULEVAKD. Arrlvo in Dotrolt one-forty. May I call thia alternoon. Howard M. Raymond." Miss Kondoll was in the library juBt after brcakfast when tbis tclcgram was handcd to hor, and ebe boamed wltb do light aa sbo read it. 'Now, isn't tbat juet too nloo?" eho romarked to tho mir ror ovor tho tnnDtlepieco. "Of coureo ho may calll I havcn't seen him for agos, and I'll havo him to dinner, and Ibon wo'll have a nico coay chat all tho evoning. Do you auppoao,"' she con tinuod, addrcssing tho face in tho mir ror, "that ho camo from Ohlcago on businoBS, or juat to soo me? I'll woar my now groen mouBsolino do aoio, and 1 tbink it muat bo alterod a bit on tho ahouldor. But ob, goodness mol I was going to hear Calvo tonight with Tom WinBton. I'll aimply havo to send him word tbat I can't go, and bo muat ask somo otber girl. It's horrid, but hoa my coualn and won't care." Without moro ado aho aeatcd heraelf at tho library desk, and after nibbling ber pcn for a lew momenia, Degan: Diau Tom: I awfully, awfully sorry, but I can't go to the opera to-nlgbt. Some tblng vory unfortunate bas come up, wbloh ! I haven't tlme to explaln now. Am I not j tho very unlucklesteirl In tbo world? I've nevor beard Calvo ln Famt, and I do so want to. You ralght aak Sally Brice to go in my plaoo. Sho wouldn't mlnd, and is good company. I'll explatn all wben I aeo i you. In despair. Lrov." 1 "Therol" aho aald as aho folded tho noto, "I conaider that quito a maater piece. I haven't told ovon a little fib but I just mado it sound artleaaly troublod. I'll get Billy to send it by an orrand-boy from tho offlco." Out in the hall, Mr. William Ken dall, Jr., waB struggling into his ovor coat. "Billy dear," Baid Lucy Bweetly, hauding him his hat and newapaper; "do you think you could possibly re membor an errand for me?" "I don't know, ais," replied Billy, with hia hand on the doorknob. "I'm half an hour behlnd timo now, and father gives me tho dickens wheu I'm late." "Well, just aend thia note to Tom WinBton, won't you, dear, tho minuto r.nl Antim tnwn Tlrtn'f fnrrrot aho callcd, for Billy had seized the noto and waa ruahing f rantically after a van iahing trolley-car. "Tho wicked boyl" Bho thoughtaa Bhe watched him down the streot. "Al waya lazy, and always in a rush at tho laat minuto. He'll ruin hia digCBtion. Well, that diBposes of Tom nicely, any way, and I can smile on Mr. Raymond with a clear conacienco." Early in tho afternoon a huge box of roscs came for Mibb Kcndall. Tbero waa no card, but Lucy gueaaod instant ly that thoy wero from hor expected viaitor. Sbo waa juat thinking of the prettieat and moat grucioua way of thanking him whon ho walkod into the room. "You see," ahesaid beamingly, "theso lovely roaes have juat come. Aren't they delicioua? I always feel that anyone who sonds mo Amorican Beauties muat read my thoughts, for J lovo them best of any." As aho apoko aho held a criap, long-stemmed beauty in her hand, and tapped itsoftly againat her check. But Mr. Raymond did not appear particularlarly interested in the rosea. If every tnan could Hve an out-door Hfi, passlng his tirae with Kun and fishiiig.rod nd canoc, there would be Itss illuess in the world. Unfortunately, tbe demands of jnodern civilization will permit very few xnen to Hve thia ideal, healthful life. Many men have to pass tbe day ahut up in officci and stores, and the nights in close vpartmeuts in crowded cities, They get JfttU out-door exercise. One of the results if thls uuhealthy, sedentary Hving is the wful pravalenee of that draad dlsease consumption. One-sixth of all tbe deaths eacn yar are due to tbis relentless enemy. Formerly phyiicians pronounced tbis dii ease incurable. It is now generally known tbat thtra is a marvelous medicine that for tbe past thirty years has been curing con lumption almost witbout a failure. It Is Dr. I'ierce's Goldeu Medical Discovery. It cures oS per cent. of all cases of consump tion, broncbitis, asthtna, laryngitis and other diseases of the air-passagcs. It is the great re-builder. It tears down, carries off and excretes old, iuert tissues and rcplaces them wltb tbe firm tissues of bealtli. It restores tbe lost nppetite and malces tbe digestlon perfect. "liour ycarsogo I had an attack or grlt that left mythroat and luiigs In a bad coutHtlon," writei iMti, Mary Hartnmu, of 300 Harker Bt., Mansfield, Ohlo. " The doctor sald I had dls f.11"1 5f.,lle throa' and bronchlal tubes. I cou. tlnued to grow worke. I had pain ln the upper part or my chest and a severe cough, which grew worse at nlght and ln tlie moruing, with heavy expectoratfon, 1 would cough up mat tsry scabs, after wlilch I would experience a burnlue and smartlng sensntlou ln my throat. I toolc the doctpr's prcscriptlons witbout num ber, but they did me 110 good. I took slxteen bottles of cod liver oil nnd waa as bad as ever I then took five bottles of Dr. I'ierce's Golden Medlcal Discovery, and three of the ' Pellets.'

Ho gazcd at them a littlo confuacdly and romarked politoly that thoy woro vory boautlful; and Lucy, 8oelng that' ho waa ill at oaso, delicately cbangcd tho aubject. "It ia a littlo trying to bo thanked diroctly for a courtcay," aho thought compasaionately. Vory aoon thoy wero chatting in a delightfully cosy way, and Lucy had rosolvod to obk him to dinnor. Moanwhilo, Mr. William Kendall, Junior, had gono to tho ofllco, rocoivod hia scoldlng from Mr. Kendall, Sonior, and of coureo had thought no moro of his siater'a noto. Whon ho was start ing homo, howevor, and was subatitut ing the ovoning for tho morning papor ln hia overcoat pockot, bo found it. "Now, now," ho thought contritoly. "thia is too bad. Lucy'll nevor trust mo ogain. No orrand-boy will ovor got tbat noto to Tom inaide busincaa hours, and no telling whoro he'll bo aftorward. Oueaa I'd botter telophono him." So ho haetoued into hia ofllco and rang up Winaton & Winaton. "Geo wbiz," ho murmured feelingly bb ho waitod for a roply, "if ho ian'l thero I'm a goner." It waa with roal Joy, thorofore thatho rccognized his couain'a buBineaB llke "Hello," and atraightway answered, "Hollo," Tom, it's Bill. I havo a mosaago for you. Er hold on a minuto, will you? Now," he aoliloquiz cd, "I can't opcn that thing. If I mia tako not, Tom ia well I might got into no end of a row. Tom," ho called "or come out to dinnor tonight." "Can't old man," anawereu Tom. "Going to tho opora, you know, and havo to go homo and put my aluda in." "Oh, that doacn't cut any ice. Como out in your toga. Er Lucy particu laxly wantB you." "Ob, aho does, doea aho," roplied Tom in a difforont tono. I'll aeo if I can arrange it. Good bye Bill. Soe you lator." "Ab," aaid Mr. William Kcndall, Junior, in great glee as ho put on his overcoat. "1 tnougnt l couia ieicn him. Now Lucy can dolivcr her mes sago in porBon, and l'm out of a hole." A balf hour later ho reached home, and walked in upon Lucy and Raymond teto-a-tete bofore tho library flre. "Ah, Raymond," ho oxclaimed cordially "whoro did you come from? You don't give us thia pleasuro often. Of courae you'll atay and dino with us. Winaton will bo awfully glad to boo you. By tho way, Lucy, ho'a coming up to dinnor." "Coming up to dinnor," cried Lucy in aatoniahmont. ''Why, Billy, didn't ho get my noto?" "Oh, your noto," echoed Billy guilt ilv. "Whv. cortainlv. yes that is to say or, to tell the truth, Lucy, I forgot all about that noto, so I justtelophoned Tom to como up and let you aquaro thincrB with him vouraelf. Jiminvl I hopo I havcn't put my foot in it ogain," bo added in a lower tone, glanclng du bioualy at Raymond. Five minutes later Miaa Kcndall was closetcd with ber brothorin tho dining room. "Lucy," said tho penitent Wil liam. "I'll do anything to help you cut I'll tumble downataira and break my log, bo that you'll bo too buay with me to go to the opora. Only I'm afraid Tom would atay too. I'll tako Kay' mond out walking and loao him bo tbat ho can't flnd himaelf till morning. But, oh, you don't want Raymond loat? Woll, you might give him tho tip put nim on, you Know, ana soe wnat no Ibinka about it." "Why, Billy Kendall, how can you auggest aucn a tningY" crled .Lucy in dienantly. "Of cour8e Mr. Raymond would aay tbat bo muatn't atand in tho way of any engagomenls of mine, and would loavo immediately. Bo gooa back to Chicago, to-morrow morning, too." "Well, what if ho doea?" aaid Billy, cooly. "I muat aay I think it'a a protty shoddy way to troat Tom.

But Miaa Kendall waa not liatoninc "Elowersl" ahogaaped. And I thanked Mr. Raymond 1" "Well.

" Oh, do go now, Billy, cried Lucy deaporately. "Thoro'a a uear boy.

Tom lookod a littlo dozed, but ho anBwered beortlly, "Why, ao I aliould. Billy nevor montloned Raymond whon ho tclophonod mo. Whoro is tho old fellow?"

"He did, did ho?" gruntod Mr. Ken dall, Senior. ancrilv. "No. I don't think wo'll allow his lack of conBlder- atlon to dclay our dinnor. Horo l'vo boon trying to tooch tho young rnecnl punctuallty for twonty yoara, and ho growaworso instcad of bottor." Evi dontly Mr. Kondall, Sonior, was not ln tho moat soraphic framoof mind. Tho moal draggcd fearfully. Mles Kondall was norvous, and wondorcd why on oarth Billy did not appoar. Tom fldgotod uncomfortably in his ovoning clothos, and gozod Inolinint tingly at tho clock on tbo mantlopieco behlnd Mr. Raymond's hoad. It was noarly cight, and ho wondorod if Lucy waa going to tho opora in that gown. Mr. Raymond was anxioualy silont, and atolo aurroptitioua glances at his watch, Mr. Kondall, Senior, dovotcd himaolf to his dinnor with ovidont lack of intor cat in hia youngor guoata; and Btlll Billy did not como. Finally Lucy hoard him bang tho front door. Sho oxcused horaolf haat ily and flow out to moot him. Ilo waa alono. "Oh, Billy," Bho cried, "whoro is Sally?" "Wouldn't como," sald Billy shortly. "I wont ovor and aBkcd fof hor. Sho said aho waa drcsBing; wantod to bo oxcuBed. I Bont back word that that waa no go; I had to aco her. Waitcd an hour and twonty minutoa by nctual count.

"Can I havo somo din nor now, ploaao?" Miaa Kondall's hoart fallod hor aa aho followod hor brotbor back to tho dinlng-room. As sho camo in Mr. Ray mond puahed back hia chair and atood up, with hia napkin in hia hand. "I am awfullv aorrv, Miaa Kondall," ho aaid, "to bo forced to loavo so abrupt ly, but I havo an important buaincBs engagement at oight o'elock.and I havo onjoyed myaolf so thoroughly that I foar I am alroady late. I Bhall give myaolf tho pleaauro of calllng wbon I como to tho city again, and untll tbon goodbyo." Ho waa gono almoBt beforo Miss Kcndall could get her breath. As sho lurncd round aho mct hor brother's glanco, and that gontloman favorod her with a long, prodigioualy eolenm wink. "Too bad ho had to go, too bad," ho exclaimed heartily. "Sor ry I couldn't aoo moro of him. Rattling nico nice fellow, Raymond is." An hour later Miaa Kondall, radiant in a bowitching ovoning gown, and carrying an immcnBO bunch of Ameri- can Boauty roaoa, waiKea uown tno oialo of MubIc Hall witn Mr. xnomaa Winaton. Tho firat act of "FauBt" was well on. "Tom," sho aaid awoot- ly, aa 8ho took her aeat, "who iB that man two rowa ahead of ua with Sally Brice?" Tom bont forword.
