“The fact “T’m in love.” “Again?” “The other times I wasn’t—not really.” | “Teddy Boyd,” I said severely, “I have

“You’re always down on a fellow.’
“If I’m ‘down’ on you, why do you al- | Ways come to me with your ridiculous | love affairs?”
“IT suppose I can smoke a cigarette?” he asked.
“I suppose you can. If it is a mild one, it probably won’t hurt you. How many does this make in the last six months?”
“Cigarettes?” “Objects of adoration.” “The others weren't.

“I’m going!” he announced savagely.
“Very well.” I composed myself on the sofa. “Goodby!” He went out, slam- ming the door.
“Teddie!” I called. ing rather sulky.

“There’s a good boy.” He made for the door again. ‘‘And—Teddie!” “Well?” he growled.

“I'd like to—shake you!” he said sayv- agely.
“You daren’t.””. He did—not very hard.
“You horrid, spiteful boy!’ I cried in- dignantly.
“You aggravate a fellow so,’’ he ex- plained. I turned my face away and pretended to be angry.
“Please go,” 1 said loftily. He didn’t.
“The truth is,” he avowed, “it is very serious this time.”” He sat down aga‘n. He did look more solenin than usual.

stomach or liver, resort to the old-fashioned violent remedies that rack and rend the whol: body, and while they give temporary relief in the long run do the entire system a great amount of harm.
Modern science has discovered remedies infinitely superior to these old-fashioned drugs, that do their work by promoting the matural processes of excretion and secre- tion and gently correcting all circulatory disturbz.nces. When a man feels generally out of sorts, when he loses sleep at night, when he gets up headachey and with a bad taste in his mouth in the morning, when he, feels dull and lethargic all day, when his” appetite is poor and his food distresses; him, when work comes hard and recreation
may not believe it, is a pretty sick man. He is on the road to consumption, nervous prostration, malaria, or some serious blood disease. In cases of this description a man should resort at once to Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It is the best medicine for a weak stomach, impaired digestion and disordered liver. It is the great blood- maker and purifier, flesh-builder and nerve tonic. It cures 98 per cent, of all cases of consumption, bronchitis, lingering coughs and kindred ailments. Thousands have testified to its marvelous merits. It is a modem, scientific medicine that aids without goading nature, and that has stood the test for thirty years. Medicine dealers

“T am delighted to meet with your ap- proval. I hope she has also a pretty mouth like mine.”
“If you refer to what I said last Christ- mas ?”’
“When you were old enough to know better,” I remarked severely. It was in connection with the mistletoe. He in- sinuated that my mouth was large. I did not agree with him.
“I was only joking, of course,” he ex- plained. “I don’t like a woman’s mouth to be too small.”
“She has not a rosebud mouth, then?”
“Oh—er—medium, you know. I don’t dissect her. Taking her altogether, she’s the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen.”
“So,” I said, “were the others.”
“The others,” he vowed, “were not worth mentioning in comparison with her. This time I’m in earnest, Maisie~ dreadfully in earnest.’”’

“Oh, Teddie,” 1 cried, “How can you pe so foolish! I’ve a great mind to be very angry.”
“Angry, Maisie!”
“What business have you to speak te me like this when you don’t know your own mind for five minutes? The other girls”—
“They Maisie.”
“You thought so then.”
“No, { didn’t. Why, I often told you that I should never get a sweetheart h&lf so nice as my ‘little sister.’ Now didn’t I?’ I nodded slowly. ‘Only it never oc- curred to me that I was in love with y u.”
“It doesn’t occur to me that I am in fove with you.”
“Oh, Maisie, try!”
“You are too changeable, afraid.”’
“Tl month.”
“A year?’ He looked very miserable.
“If you won't let me off with less. You won't flirt with other fellows, will you, Maisie?”.
“T never flirt,” I stated, with surprise.
“Oh, look here’—
“Well, nothing to speak of,” I said has- tily. “And if I choose, why shouldn’t 1?”
“Becanse—you know!” He looked at me as if he was really in earnest. I think 1 rather hoped that he was upon the whole. “Won’t you promise?” he plead- ed. “Don’t you like me a little bit?”
“1 like you a great deal, Teddie. No, no! You mustn’t—l won't have it, Teddie —I mean it!” 1 pushed him away and stood up.
“But if you like me’—
“As a big brother’—
“Nothing more?” He put his great hand on my shoulder and locked dowp at me. He is rather good looking.
“I’m afraid, Teddie,” I said, “we've been brother and sister so long. Besides, you'd get tired of me ina fortnight.”
“You are not the sort of girl to let a fellow get tired of you.”
“Possibly,” 1 said, “I might prefer not to have to keep a lover by my own exer- tions.” He was silent for a long time. He looked so miserable that I was quite sorry for him.
“Don’t you think it possible for a fel- low to have been in love with a gir) swhom he met constantly without know- ing it?” he’ asked. ah
“Ve-es,” 1 admitted. “I suppose It 1s. But—Teddie!” I laid my hand on his arm.
“Yes, Maisie?”
“It is also possible for him to fancy that he is in love with her when he isn’t.”
“I’m as sure as’’—
“You were about the other girls!” He hung his head. “Dear old boy, you've been the best of fellows to me always; but don’t you think you ought to go away for a time and see if you do not change your mind, before you speak to me like this? Wouldn’t it be fairer to me?”
“I'll go to Uncle Jack’s tonight,” he said, impulsively. ‘“He’s been expecting me for a long time. And I'll stay as long as you like.” I smiled a little.
“Six months?’ He pulled his mus tache.

“Thank you, Teddie.” I gave him my hand to shake, and he kissed it—the silly fellow,

“You'll let me write to you?”
“I can’t prevent you.”

“No.” He laughed too.

The Danger of
PILES
Too frequently overlooked, Dr. Chase’s Ointment a Prompt and Positive Cure.
The suffering caused by the intense itching and burning sensations of piles is only one of the horrors of this disease, for there is always great danger of piles developing into fistula, one of the most disgusting diseases imaginable,
Even the great danger and expense of an operation are preferable to running the risk of contracting this most loathsome of diseases.
But there is no necessity for a surgical opera- tion for piles. Dr. Chase’s Ointinent is guaranteed to cure any case of piles, no matter of how long standing, or how aggravated the case may be, so long as piles have not become fistula,
It is only by rare chance that internal treat- ment will cure piles. But it matters not from what cause they arise, Dr. Chase's Ointment will at once stop the itching and burning, and soun effect a perfect cure.
You can use Dr. Chase’s Ointment with fullest assurance that what has cured scores of thousands of cases of piles will cure you, For sale by all dealers, or kdmanson, Bates & Co., Toronts.
