At a certain corner ho came to a
; : r.nd.st ill. proposing to himself the
(juestion of turning back toward the
diovy and fahinahle restaurant in
which he usually dined on the even
in f of Iiis esje ial luxury. Just
then a firl cuddled llfhtly around
tiio corn r. .dipped on a patch of
icy snow and fdl plump upon the
. itlewalk.
Chandler assisted her to her feet
with instant and solicitous courtesy.
The fin hobbb d to the wall of

thanked liim demurely.
"I think my ankle is strained."
she said. "It twisted when 1 fell."

but heartilv. "I am sure y.vj p ed
rot trouble yourself any further. It
was so awkward of mo. And my
shoo lie els are horridly mtr.mon
sctise: I can'i bltme them at all."
Chandler looked at tho firl and
found her swiftly drawing his inter
est. She was prtty in a refined
way; and her eye was both merry
r.nd kind. She was inexpensively
rhdhed in a plain black dress that
vuffested a s-ort of uniform such as
-hop firls wear. Hr flossy dark
brov. it hair showed it coils beneath
a cheap hat of bl.uk straw whose

inf k! p. "f think I will accept
your in' ita tioii. Mr. Chandb-r. Yuu
may call m Miss Marian."'
"Come then. Miss- Marian." rain
the younf architect, faily. but with
perfect courtesy: "you will not have
far to walk. Tln-re is a very re
spectable and food restaurant in tho
next block. Ytl will have to ban
on my arm so and wa'k slowly. It J
is lonely dininf all by one's self. I'm J
just a little bit glad libit you Silppeu
on the ice."
When the two wa re established at
a well-appointed table, with a prom
isinf weiter hoverinf in attendance.
Chandb-r befan to e xperh nee the
real joy that his refular outinf al
ways brought to him. His com
panion, evil in her cheap hat and
dress, held herself with an air that
added distinction to the natural
beauty of her face and fifure. And
it is c.-rtain that she looked at
l Chandb-r. with his animated hut
solf-pns.-cssvd manner and his
kmdlinf and frank blue eves, with
somethiof not far from admiration
in her own charminf face.
Then it was that the M adress of
Manhattan, the Frenzy of I'uss and
lYathers. the bacillus of I traf, the
rrovincial Tlafue of !'.. seized
upon Towers ChandbT. He was on
Ilroadway. surrounded by pomp and
j stylo, and there were eyes to look
at him. i n the stafo of that comedy
he had assumed to play the onc-
nifht part of a butterlly of fashion
and an idler of means and taste. He
was dressed for the part, and all his
pood apfels had not the power to
prove?-! t him from actinf it.
So ho bean tit prate to Miss
Marian of clubs, of teas, of folf and
ridinf and kennels and cotillion and
tours abroad and threw out hints of
a yacht lyinp at Larchmo.it. Ho
could see that sho was -vastly iiii

mentioned familiarly a few names
that are handled reverently by the
proletariat. It was Channb r's short
little diy. and he was wrinu'inf from

lather raj. idly eastward, and then ho
found a cab to drive him slowly
homeward.
In his (hilly bedrock Chandler
laid away his evening clothes for a
e 'J days' rest. He went about it
thouditl'uliy.
"That was a stunning firl," ho
said to himself. "She's all rifht.
loo, I'd be sworn, oven if she thus
have to work. Ptrhaps if I'd told
her the truth instead of all that
razzle-dazzle we might but, con
found it! J had to play up to my
Clothes."
Thus spoke the bravo who was1
born and reared in tho wigwams of j
the tribe- of tho Manhattans. i
Tho girl, after leaving her enter- j
tainr, sp d swiftly cross-town until,
she ariived at a handsome and so-;

"Throe bottles of Tanlac are all
I have taken but, it's a fact, I feel
hotter right now than I havo at any
time in tifteen years." said James
Stafford, coal miner, living at 201
South Seventh Street. West Terre
llauie, Indiana.
"For several years bark," ho con
tinued. "I havo been bothered with
my stomach, kidney and liver and
it was beginning to look like every
thing was wrong with me. My ap
petite had dwindled away to nearly
nothing and I had reached the point
where I couldn't even eat my lunch
that I carried to tho mine every
day. Nothing seemed to set right
with mo and at times my stomach
hurt something awful.
"My kidneys worried me continu
ally and I hrul sharp, catching pains
all through my back. "Why, when
ever I stooped over tho pains nearly
kMb-d mo and I had to lay off from
work many a day just on .account
of this. And on the ela:.- I did work
T just could make it and at rrlght
would come dragging homo, ex
hausted. My liver was slugfish and
I felt weak and listless all the time.
I dreaded to see night coming on
lor sleep was nearly out of the
question.
"My son had tried Tanlac and
wa.s so well pleased with it that he
got after mo to try it. I got to
thinkinf it might help mo and I
commenced taking it. Well, it was
tho best tiling I could have done
for it has certainly lixed me up in
lino shape and I can do as much
work now as any of the boys.
"I cat three big hearty meals
( very day and don't know what it is
u ever bo troubled with my stomach
any more. My kidneys are in line
condition and so is my liver. I
haven't a pain about me and I be
lieve my hack is as strong a.s it ever
was in my life. I deep like a top
and never have to miss a day from
work any more. I am a great be
liever in Tanlac now and several of
my friends are taking it on my sav

Tanlac is sold in South P.end at
the Central Drug .-tore, Public Drug
Store, Iandon's Pharmacy and Wet

Mishawaka at the Pel Cross Pharmacy.
