In our ease the situation reversed

itself. I had suggested to Veryl, far- vently, of course, tha proper economy would sanction the pr tice of send- ing out her wedding in tations and my own in the some envel pea. With

Presently I found myself sented by her- side holding her hand, which leads me to suspect that some manner of nf- iirmation must have greeted my pro- posal. We were engaged. With that our story starts. Thus: Proposal, uc- ceptance, tableau, chapter one.

For the next few moments neither

When I told her last night what I expected to say to you she nsked me to be married at once. ‘Luddie,‘ she said, ‘I am getting old, and before I go I want to see you married and settled down: Promise. mc, son, that you will be married ns soon ns possible, so that I can be here to see my boy united to the woman of his choice.’ I promised."

“But your mother can go to Eng-

land with us, dearest." _ “Iniposslblc. She has n horror of the ocean that nothing can conquer.` Why not bring your futher to Amer- len?"

“If I waited for futher to come to

America to see me married, John, I must die u splnster. The lust time we crossed it took him four mouths to sulunrou up his courage to the point of embnrkntlon. Three times we bought tickets; twice we forfeited our depos- its. Once on shore, he assured nic timt he had suffered his last trip. John, you nrc such a resourceful, clever fel- lo\v that you must devise some way

out of our dilemma.”

At first I suggested to Veryl that half the ceremony be performed at. Matlock and that we proceed by dif-

renuilning portion might be read. Veryl would have none of it. She had

covcnnnted to be married lu the pres- ence of her pa-rent-not hnlr married. “Ald, besides, John,'_’ she added re- proachfully, “if anything -should hap- .pen toyou on the return trip I would be n semiwldow." The lugubrions prospect of semlwidowhood invited tours. und I dcslsted. Tho plnn of mnnrlnge by cable, next

advanced, met with like discourage- mont as being “too much on the order nf an international chess tournament." Wireless telegrnphy offered some alight prospect of solution, but Veryl retracted on account of its uncertainty. ` With the rnttle of the llrst milk waz- . on on the street outside and its remind- , et' thot morning had arrived cnme~ the , scheme that we finally ndopted.

"vgry|` srleven oi-or born features. I shared only half her sorrow. Ire tinio wont ou Voryi bccnme quite

reconciled to our marriage plan despite tho-'separation it involved. Sho- is 11 most unconventional little person at nil times, and tile oddity of the arrange- ment doubtless uppcuisd to her strong- ly. With me it wus otherwise. The glory of our cngugepieut was quite dlzunisd by the prospect of her depar- ture tor the other aide; when she sailed on the lst day of June my grief wus abysmal. Mother has since assured me that fhr three cutlrc days I ate not n . morsei of food. My thoughts were with n certain ot-cnn greyhound speed- lng~over its Atluntlc lnue, and I road and reread nothing but storm reports and derelict statistics. _

Ona Frldny evening I found two

smnil trunks in our front hnllwny. The maid informed inc that they were there by order of my mother. When she cnme down for dinner thnt evening I noted a-iz once on ulr of suppressed ex- citement nbout her, but I nskcd no questions. ' "‘Son._" said she utter we had sented ourselves. “I bought your' wedding present todny. See '."'

Imagine my usioulshmcnt when she

held out for nly inspection passage tickets for Southampton by next dny`s steamer. '

“But, mother,” I protested, “I cnnnot

leave you. I intend to keep my prom- ise.- I know I nm u .sclilsh brute in uct- lng as I have been doing, but I cunuot help myself."

"Son," snld ug' mother, "the Rodney

is safe in every wny. I have seen hcr captnln, who is un uid friend nf YDUI' futher. und he zissrrr-os me his bout is po;-feuily sie;uvortli_v und that n trip ut this season of thc _vi-zu' is n more plcns- ure juunt. Yes, I :un going with you. We sail tomorrow morning. Don‘t hug mc like thnt! I go with you on one coznlition."

".\nd that is?" “'l`li:xt our departure be kept n secret

from Veryl. We must surprise hr-r.”

We hud nn uneventful trip. I rc-

rucmber very little oi’ it. Some time durlni; the sccouil <ln_\‘ we pusscd l\

long, steep hill :_rud found ourselves in l front oi’ 11 very large 1: nd very glooluy hotel, bearing 11 gilt sign, “The Mat-

The next scene will abide with me

to niy dying day. A fat clorlr stood in

front of us null held out n long pen.

“Is ;\I'lss Veryl Preston nt home?" I

asked. J ' _

"No, slr." ~

“Where is she?"

`M1ss`I-Iapgood tells how she was cured

of Fallopian and Ovarian InHammation_--- and escaped an awful operation by using

Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

“Dinan Mns. PINKHAM:-I suffered for four years with what the

doctors called Snlpingitis (infiaxuulation of the fallopian tubes) and ova.- ritis, which are most distressing and painful ailments, aifectingnll t-he surrounding parts undermining the constitution, andsapping the life forces. If you had seen me a year ago, before I began taking Lydia E. Pinklm.m’s Vegetable Compound, and had noticed the sunken eyes, sallow comp1oxion,and general emacintcd condition, and compared that person with me as I am today, robust, hearty and well, you would not Wonder that I feel thankful to ou and your wonderful medicine which restored mo to new life and liealih in tive months, and saved mo’ from an awful operation.”-Miss Ixnxu Ilarooon, 1022 Sandwich St., Windsor, Ont.

Ovaritis or inflammation of/ ie ovaries or fallopian tubes which ad oin the

ovaries may result, from sudden gaping of the monthly iiow, from ingamma- tion of the womb, and many other causes. The slightest indication of trouble with the ovaries, indicated by dull throbbing pain in the side, accompanied by heat and shooting pains, should claim your instant attention. It will not

cur? itself, and a. hospital operation, with all its terrors, may easily result from neg ec . ‘

“Dun Mas. PINKHAM:-I can truly say that you have saved

my life, and I cannot express my ratitude to you in words.

“Before I wrote to you telling how I felt, I had doctored for over

two years steady and spout lots of money in medicine besides, but it all failed to do me any good. My menses did noi; appear in that time and

I suttered much pam. I would daily have fainting spells, ieaclnche, backache and bearing down pain, and was so weak that it was hard for me to do my work.

f‘I used your medicine and' treatment

as directed, and after taking three bottles of Lydia. E. Pinkhonfs Vegetable Com-

pound, menses appeared, my womb trou. bles loft me, and have been regular ever

since. I used fourteen bottles of Lydia. E. Pinklinnrs Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier together, and am now restored to perfect health. Ilnd ii: noi; been for you, I would have been in my grave.

“I will always recommend your wonderful remedies, and hope that

these few lines may lead others who suilcr as I dill to try your remedies."-Mus. T. C. \VrLLaDsEN, R. R. No. 1, Manning, Iowa.

Such unquestionable testimony proves the power of Lydia E. Pink-
