SELECTED STORY,
A Llfo Scntcncc,
Thov had como out toeothor on tho
lawn from tho roorn that was too Btnall
1n hnlri twn mnn nnd tlioir ailCCr.
Mildouhnll'B euddon rago had kopt
hlm qh vot from realizing tho full
moaning of tho torn lottor whicli hnd
fallon from tho laco at IiIb wlfo's bosom
na sho loft tho dinnor-tablo thrco mln
utos hoforo. Sho hnd swopt away,
trallluc hor silks af tor hor, unconscious.
Evory frosh thought flushed hlo faco
anow, nnd his llngors couvuhlvciy
crumplctl or rollcd tho Bcrnps of papor
itini uo ciung lo witn Dotu uanus.
"Oh, you Bcoundroll Oh, you foar-
ful scoundroll"
Tho half-llght from tho drawn blinds
foll on tho lottor tho foolish lottor. in
Kingsmark'a handwrlting and foll,
too, on Kingsraark's white, hardoncd
fnco, that accmcd topeorwith n pltoous
cviosity at what bo llttlo Hmo ago was
t' ,& facc of hla f riond. His frlcnd, his
deur old frioud, whom ho had bo basoly
botrayed and thnt not for lovo's Bako,
but in tho cllmax of n Borios of wcak
conccssions to tho foolish paealon of
his fricnd's wifo.
Tho brokon voico wont on, sounding
wcarily liko tbo voico of ono who has
spokon a long timo.
"And if nny ono hnd told mo, Jnck
only flve niinutes bnck boforo I that
you oh, you Bcoundrell"
At tho frosh blazo of wrath, Kings
mark put up his arm instinctivoly.
"Koop off," ho said, apeaking for tho
flrat timo."
Tho action put a now thought into
Mildonhall's madnoss. With a scroam
liko an animal in pain, tho big yellow
bearrlcd man throw himsolf upon
Kingsmark, and hurled him to tbo
ground. Ab thoy rollcd ovcr togolher
Kingsmark folt hands at hia throat.
His oycB awam in hia hend tho clutch
rclonscd for nn instnnt, and bcforo it
tightoned ngain, his fingers found what
thoy sought in his broast pockct.
Mildenhall was knccling on bim and
laughing hystorically, spccch was im
posBiblo to King8mark bo tried itj
thon forgotting ovorything but that life
and sonacB wero leaving bim, ho struck
upward with all hia obbing force.
A trcraor ran through tho flngers at
his throat, and their claap waa loosen
cd. Ho strugglcd to his knecs.
Evelyn Mildenhall seemed to bo sit
ting againat tho tulip bank, with hia
bead thrown back and hia bcard
pointcd upward, juat as it UBcd to do
whcn bo lot off hia great poal of laugh
tcr at Bomo lcst of his fricnd's.
"Evelyn I" No nnBwer. Then the
blood rushed into the forehead of tho
man who realized now what ho had
donc. Ho atcppcd back into tbo houso
nnd throw on his hat and invcrncsa.
When ho roturncd, ho learned ovcr Mil
denbnll nnd stroked his hnir witb his
hand. Tho mnn waa dend, but tho man
who had killed him could not think of
that now. All his Benaes wero strango
ly alive to trifles.
Through .the open window he could
sec tho dining-room as they had lcft
it tho chaira thrust back, the cigar
box open on tho tablo, tho wino Btill
in tho glasscs. Ono of the two who had
Bat there was dead the ono who waa
nlivo hardly knew which. The turf
waa wet. Had a Bhower fallen? At
dinnor sho had complained of tbo hcat,
and languidly predicted rain. Milden
ball'B head, lying back like thnt, muat
bo cruabing ono of tho tulipa. Natural
ly an unobaervant man, Kingsmark no
ticed for the flrat timo that tulip-cups
Bhut at nigbt.
Something was shining at Milden
ball's broaBt. The silver figure of a
contadina hafting tbo stilotto that slew
him. Why was thcrc not morc blood?
Kingsmark had bougbt that stilotto
and the silver candlcstick now on tbo
tablo within, the day tho two came
away from 1'isa, at tho end of thnt long
holiday in the sun. Ho could loave
it there eafely. No mnn hnd lookcd nt
it ainco but he nnd tho dead man who
now bad it in his beart. He took hia
eyea from tbo bilt, ahut thcm, and turn
cd away bia bead. Whcn ho opencd
them again bo Btooped to pick up
aometbing white from tho turf a torn
letter on whose turned-up corner ho
read "Darling Hetty."
ThruBtinging this into his waistcoat
pocket, he went down tho avenuo with
hcad bont, his boots cruncbing tho
moist gravel on tho path, now lit up
and spangled by the moon-light.
His old frienu
Long ago they had sworn that tho
one who dled flrst ahould return to
mect and greet tho othcr on his way.
Kingsmark wished that thia could bo,
for tben his Inst mcmory of his frienu
would be a reproachful face better
mcmory than tho white throat thrown
back in the moonlight.
He sbuddcred and reachcd out his
hands as ho wnlkcd, aa ono doca etrug
gling to break a nightmare.
Somo ono waa Bpcaking. Ho bad
walkcd into tho little lnno of light caat
by a policcman'a lantern.
"Good-night," he answered in his
dreams.
"Looka likea moro rain, air."
"I foar bo," aaid King8mark, and
burried on to cecapo the coming Bhow
er. Hia old friendl Ile almoBt felt the
nccustomcd arm thrown across his
Bhoulder.
No thought of flght; ho was tired,
nnd to-morrow showecl dimly nt tho
end of the long sleep nwniting him.
Mildenhnll bad always walked this
road with him, and now, Mlldonball
was dead. Kingsmark wiahcd ho waa
dead, too but perhaps that waB only
part of tho cravlng for sleep which op
pres8cd him. But it was his flrst dell
nito thought Binco Mildenhnll, cigar in
mouth, had pickcd tbo torn letter from
tho floor undcr the ompty chair nt tho
tablo head.
Anothor policomun waa standing nt
his gato when Kingsmark flttcd hia
latch-koy to tho lock. KingBmark
wondored nt tho atrango voico witb
which ho gnvo good-night to thia mnn.
Whcn ho had ligbtcd a candlo in hla
bcdroom, ho loanod hla handa on tho
drossiug-tablo nnd lookcd long nnd
curlously ut tho whlio fnce thnt starcd
nt him out of tho mlrror'a dnrk depths.
It waa intorcating to aoe tho faco of n
mnn who had Ho throw himsolf
on tho bed at tho last pitch of exhaus-tion.
"On fluard."

dcath comes crasliing about hltii,
When n man bcctns to fcel "out of
sorts," when his appetite is failing and his
cnergy is not up to tho mark, when he has
biiious attacks and a fecling of lassitude
nnd inrapacity, if he is wise, he will take
Dr. 1'icrce's Golden Medlcal Discovery
riRht away. It will britifr his appatlte back
again, and what is tnore it will brinjr back
his dieestive powers, It will give nll the
nssimilative functions the edge nnd power
to extract nbundant nourishment from the
food he ents. It will makc cood, pure,
healthy blood and send it coursinfr rapldly
through his veins and arteries into every
ergan and tissue of the body, It will put
flesh on his bones and force in his musclcs:
it will give him strcngth and courage and
cheerfulness, in a word it will give him
complete health.
It excretes from the systcin every par
ticlo of dead, useless, flabby tissue. It
even reduces the weight of the corpulsnt
man at the same time that it builds up his
ftrength and working power. The weight
it adds to people who need it is the kind
that comes of pure blood and every organ
doing its work properly nnd thoroughly;
what pugilists call ' fighting weight."
Knockknock knockl What was it
was somo ono making a coflln? Ham
mer hammer hammer; No; it was
somo ono at tho front door, and a bcll
was clanging loudly in the empty
kitcben.
Kingsmark instinctively toro off his
coat and put on a drcBsing-gown be
foro ho wont down.
Aa ho sbot back the heavy bolta of
tbo front door ho waa conacioua of
voicea without.
"Well, what'a up?" he waa aurpriaed
to hcar himself aav as ho saw two no-
licemen standing on tho doorstep. Tho
night amelleu sweet of wet cartu nnd
leavea.
"Mr. Mildenhall, sir ho'a dead, sir
murdered."
"Good God!" Klneamnrk lcaned
againat tbo door-poBt, flgbting for
breath to aay, "I killed him."
"xcb, sir. in ms tront earden a
knifo in hia bcart. air," put in tho othor
policeman.
JvingsmarE ruboca nis nanus acrosa
hia eyes and looked at it ns if he ex-
pccted to seo aomething on it.
"I waa apleop," he aaid.
apologetically, "wo camo to you through
you being so well known to be bia beat
mcnu nnu nnving becn scen witn
himlnatof all."
"What?" snid Klngsmnrk.
"Why, sir, sure you'ro heavy witb
sleep, or you'd remembor mooting us
as ububI, audus giving you good-night,
sir don't you recrjllect?"
"l ou Baw mo waiKinc wnu xar. Mil
denhall to-night?"
"lea, sir; ot courao J. diu. uome,
sir, rouso youraelf." Kingsmark held
his two hands over his hcad and said:
"Tell me again."
"Again and again, Bir," anawered
tho man, with somo tempor. "I anw
bim nnd you na uaunl, and I saw bim
leavo you at your door; and I saw him
go back homo nnd I said good-night,
but ho never answered. And then wo
Baw tho light and tho window open,
nnd wcnt in nnd found tho poor gcntle
mnn stono dead on bia own lawn with
his hcad among the tulips."
Kingamark's bands tightcned their
clasp. Tho dead man had kept his
promiso then, and had wnlked with
him tbat nigbt. A ghost had paccd
by hla side a ghost's arm bad lain on
his ahouldcr a ghost bad como back
tbo murdered man had savcd tho
murderor. How curioua.
Kingsmark burat out laughing, and
fcll at tho policeman'B fcct.
They rouaed him or what was loft
of him. The beat part of him lay on
tho lawn among tho tulips.
A atupid sonse of clinging to lifo with
botb bands possessed him. Mildenhall
hnd snvod hia life; ho dared not throw
it away. Ho was condemnod to live.
He went through nn inquest ordream
ed he did answering questions me
chnnicnlly with a growing wonder to
flnd his answerB bolioved. What fools
pcople werel And ho tho grcatcst fool
of all. His old f riond!
Kingsmark thinks ho wont mnd n
little nfter this. They cnllcd it brain
fever. Whon ho got better ho tried to
toll himself Mildenhnll was not dend
hnd gono to a fnr country. But even
that last rng the ono tbing that let
any meaning remaln to llfo was torn
from hlm, for Mlldonhall'B widow camo
to bco him.
"My darling," sho cricd, throwing
her nrms nround him, "how terriblo nll
thia haB been, but I am all your own
now."
Ho did not nnawor, but sho folt the
repulsion of doninl in tho contnct of
him.
Tho coramonplnco, pretty fnco,
frnmed in tho yellow hnir nnd widow's
bonnet, dnrkened. Thon sho apoko,
rcaBonably, softly, with tho little liap
Mildenball had lovod to hear.
"Jack, dcar, of courao its vory Bhock
ing and all that. But really it ought to
brlng ub togothor. Why sbould It part
us?" '
Ho drow himsolf up and laid hia dry
lips ngninst hor llttlo red mouth. This,
too, waa part of his llfo Bentcnce.
"Why, indeed?" ho aaid, with a
ahiver. And eat with hia head bowed

The most iiuportant cxcrctory orcana of the
boily nro the kidnoys. When they fail to er
forni their work properly serious deranKenieut
of nll ortjaiis of tho body is suro to follow. It
is impossible for the body to retain effete
mattera in its syatem and not becomo tlior-
ouRlily poisoned. Inipuro nnd impoveriahed
blood, which is unfit to nourish the body, is
tho result, nnd, unless wo Ret rid of tho poison
by the pronipt and proper action of the kid
neys, nright's disease or somo othor kidney
tronhlo will bo induced, and eventually pro
duce death.
