*“‘And what*~ they plotted,” I asked, *‘and who they were?”’ sir!’’ said Borofsky. ‘‘How could I pos- room and all these’ people I have seen today for the first time.’”’
‘*But how did you get to see them at all?’ Lasked. ‘*Didn’t you run a great
*‘Some risk, no doubt, but I wasn’t Borofsky, mind you—I was disguised. I went to my lodgings early in the aft- ernoon and put on a beggar’s dress that I have in stock—a perfect disguise. Ir this I returned here, standing outside this very door till our friend came out. 1 did the same yesterday. but he kept me waiting several hours and never came at all. hardly been here a quarter of an hour when out comes my man, jumps into a drosky and drives away
**Luckily 1, too, had a drosky wait- ing round the corner and into this ] jumped, throwing the cloak over me that was already prepared for my use in case of need and lay folded ready on the cushion
“I followed his drosky right across to the island side, down the first line, over the Tuchkof bridge and into the Peterburgskaya. He turned intoasmall street that led out of the prospekt, and I stopped in the main thoroughfare a few yards farther on, threw the cloak to my driver and hurried back to the corner of the small street.
‘“‘His drosky was returning empty, and he had disappeared, and I thought I had lost my man; but almost imme- diately another trap drove up, turned into the street and stopped at a little wooden house half way down it. So I limped toward the gate of that house— a beggar again, now—and took my atund near by
**No less than seven other individuals drove or walked to that gate, sir, and entered the little wooden house, though I was pot exactly on the spot when all arriv for the first that came gave me a grievnik (10 kopecks) and bade me go farther, very much farther; but we need not specify the destination he had fixed npon me.

If men wonld only realize that ill-health robs them not only of life, but of their fortune as well, there would be fewer penni- less widows and orphans to drag out cheerless lives. When a man ho!ds a dol- lar close up to
; his eyes, it shuts out the light of good judgment, and looks bigger than 1 fe or death, or wife or child. The facts are that ill-health very soon puts a stop to a man’s money-making powers and turns them into money-losing dis- abilities.
When a man’s digestion is out of order and his liver sluggish, his brain gets dull, his muscles sluggish, his blood impure and every organ in the body—brain, lungs, heart, stomach, liver and kidneys—becomes ctippled. A man with a crippled lung, liver, heart, brain or kidney, is a worse cripple ten times over, than a -uan who is minus a leg or an arm. The man who is crippled ontside may live a long life but the man who is crippled inside is taking a short cut to the grave. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med- ical Discovery cures indigestion, makes the appetite keen, the liver active, the blood
ure, and every organ healthy and vigorous. It makes blood and builds fiesh up to the healthy standard. Honest dealers don’t recommend substitutes.
‘* J wish to say to those who suffer from kidn and bladder trouble—take Dr. R. V. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,’ writes Dr. Anderson, of Carthage, Jasper Co., Mo. : says it is worth $50 per bottle to any one who is afflicted as he was. ‘Three bottles cured him en- tirely. Perfectly miserable he was, before taking the ‘Piscovery’ and now is one of the happiest mea inthis County. Prof. Chreine would gladly sign this if ne were in town. He requested me to write a testimonial and make it as strong as the Engtish lenguage could make tt.”

‘“‘What manner of men were these friends of his?'’ asked Percy; ‘‘the other members of this charming com- mittee? A set of desperate looking cutthroats, I’ll bet.’’
‘‘They were very mixed,” said Bo- ‘‘There were some who looked quite respectable—cfficers; two fellows in civilian uniform; one or two awful looking specimens and a couple of stu-

dents with plaids and long hair and white faces and spectacles, all com- plete. Our own men were far the most respectable looking of the company.’”’
We made Borofsky happy by prais- ing him for his skill this afternoon. He had been and still was very sore over his London fiasco and needed en- couragement.
This interregnum was very trying, however, to mother and to me. To be obliged to hang about without advanc- ing the matter we had so deeply at heart until such time as our impostor should think fit to commit himself to some villainy and we should find means to suspect or discover it and thus put himself in our power was tantalizing indeed.
Besides, there was always the chance that he had lied throughout and that in reality he had nothing to reveal as to father’s fate. Perhaps he had never seen father and knew nothing more of him than his name, excepting the fact that, by a stroke of excellent Iuck, he must so nearly resemble the real Lan- drinof that he was able to pass as the count with all but his closest relations, and that the count’s house was uncom- monly comfortable and that, thanks, from beginning to end, to the acci- dental resemblance, his lot had fallen in extremely pleasant places.
My mother was assured that our dis- reputable guest was none other than my father’s brother Andre. He could be no other, she said, for. though she
/ now knew that there was nothing in the
man’s face to recall that of her dear Viadimir excepting the shape of the features and that it had been the gross- est calumny upon the count even to mistake this other’s photograph for his. yet the cast of the features was the same, and the man could be no other
than the wretched Andre—supposed at |
this moment by the police to be far away in Siberia.
Our friend, however, had assumed an absolute ignorance of the existence of any such person as Andre Landrinof, the count’s younger brother, when taxed by Borofsky with being that very individual. He had never heard of the man, he said. As for his own name, Borofsky would have to contrive to ex- ist without knowing it if it depended on himself to tell it, because, said he, it was not Borofsky’s business to know it.
But one evening our excellent friend rather gave himself away. He had tak- en to indulging somewhat freely in vodka, the spirit. distilled from rye, which is the favorite drink of the Rus- tian people, and the vodka loosened his tongue.
Borofsky often sat with him of an evening, the only one of us who did, and on this occasion our guest, being slightly overrefreshed, suddenly broach- ed the subject of Andre Landrinof.
‘That brother of the count’s you were talking about the other day, Bo- rofsky, '’ he said; ‘‘where is he, and what is he doing? Is he a count, too, and rich?”
‘“‘He isn’t acount, but an infernal blackguard,”’ said Borofsky, ‘‘and I should say he is just about as rich as the folks he has robbed are the poorer.”
‘‘Ha. ha! Good!" said the fellow.
50 times worse, any one of them, Now,
are than this Andre’’— “Whom you don’t know,” laughed Borofsky ‘*Wait—I—I think I have met him

under a different name. I think he is one who is or was known as Kornilof. I m°t him in London.’’
‘‘Not in Siberia—are you sure?’
Borofskv put in.
‘‘Curse you, why dowyon interrupt me?’’ shouted the other angrily. ‘‘I tell you I know nothing of Siberia. I met this man in London—Kornilof. He lives in London owi: to persecutions in this infernal conntry, and has lived there for years.’’
“Then it can’t be Andre,’’ interrupt- ed Borofsky again, ‘‘for Andre has spent the flower of his life in the mines of Siberia, where, it is to be hoped, he still blooms and will continue to bloom until judgment day or so.’”’
‘‘Oh, indeed! You seem to knowa great deal of this Andre!’’ said our guest, with tipsy dignity and scorn. ‘‘Would you be surprised to learn that he is not such a confounded fool as you suppose, and, at the present moment, is thou—thousands of miles from Siberia and has no intention of re—returning there ?”’
‘Kornilof, that is?’’ suggested Bo- rofsky.
‘Yes, Kornilof, or Andre—same thing—same man. Siberia is for fools, my friend, and the sooner you go there yourself the sooner you’]l be in the place that’s best suited for you.”
CHAPTER XVIL ANDRE'S STUDENT VISITOR.
After this conversation Borofsky de- clared that he had no doubt whatever that our sham count was Andre Lan- drinof. But, though mother and I were quite disposed to agree with him, we could not think of any way in which this fact could be bronght into connec- tion with the mystery of father’s disap- pearance.
Nevertheless, though we knew it not, Wwe were now at last on the eve of more important discoveries than that of the mere identity of our guest. We were about to strike a trail and a strong one.
Among those who visited our guest, whom I shall crave permission to call Andre henceforth, since it was from this time that we became accustomed to regard him as undoubtedly father’s worthless brother; among the shabby looking persons who visited Andre and held long consultations with him in the apartments set aside to his use wasa student, one of that plaided and spec- tacled class of individuals, half famish- ed and obviously ill nourished and pov- erty ridden, of whom there are many hundreds in St. Petersburg and from among whom the ranks of the disaffect- ed are principally recruited, for the lot of the Russian student is a miserable one indeed, and it is no wonder that he is a reckless, discontented individual, only too ready to become the dupe or the accomplice of those who preach cru- sades against property and those who possess it. For he is not like the under- graduate of Oxferd or Cambridge, pass- ing rich upon a more or less liberai al- lowance from his father or his guardian. The Russian student keeps himself and pays his own fees in most cases. He gives lessons during the hours which are free of lectures, and by means of the income thus earned he gains just enough to pay his university fees and to sturve handsomely on what is left over. The little student who visited Andre caused poor Borofsky an im- mense amount of annoyance and tronu- ble, for he was the only ene of Andre’s visitors (cf whom there were several) whom he had hitherto failed to track to his home, wherever that might be. Borofsky now knew the address of all the rest of the friends of our highly re- spectable guest. He also knew all the houses haunted by Andre himself, which were doubtless the homes of these same worthies, but the student had been too clever for Borofsky and would never al- low himself to remain long enough in view to be shadowed for more than a -ew minutes at a time.

YSPEPSIA
Throvs all the Blame on the Stomach—The Real Seat of Trouble is the Intestines— The Permanent Cure is Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills.
It is an old idea long since exploded that digestion is confined to the stomach. No modern scientist denies that by far the greater part of digestion and the more difficult part takes place in the intestines. This explains why dyspepsia is never really cured by pre- parations which merely aid stomach digestion and act only on thestomach., :
This fact also explains why Dr. Chase’s Kid- ney-Liver Pills have been so remarkably suc- cessful as a cure for the worst forms of dyspep- sia and indigestion, ;
Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills act directly on the /ridneys, liver and bowels, and give new tone and vigor to the intestines, and make them able to perform their work of digesting the substances on which the stomach has no effect. . 2 .
Stomach treatment may do well enough for slight indigéstion, but if you have chronic in- digestion ordyspepsia of a serious nature you can profit by the experience of scores of thou- sands who have been permanently cured by using Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills. One
