‘‘Most certainly,” I laughed. “If you fancy it, why not? Are a good meal and a glass of beer so unwonted a lux- ury to you?’

faced, happy, rollicking, playful babies, thousands of them all over the broad land, have in their bodies the seeds of serious diseases, and while they laugh and play are facing death. The mother, in the majority of cases, 1s unconsciously re- sponsible for this sad state of affairs. Where the mother, during the anxious period, suf- fers from weakness and disease of the dis- tinctly feminine organism, it 1s useless to expect a sound and healthy baby. Every woman may be strong in 4 womanly way, and have robust, happy children. :

“God knows how I live,” shivered the student. ‘‘I don’t.”
We were now on the Palace quay and rapidly approaching our big house—the very place he had last left before we had both started upon our wild and ill omened race.
‘‘Where are you taking me to?’ he said.
“To my home, of course,’’ I replied, with a laugh.
‘*Which house is it?’’ he said, hang- ing back a little. ‘‘Not this huge one— the Landrinof mansion ?’’
“Yes, certainly. Why not? I am Count Boris Landrinof, and you shall be my guest, as I promised.”’
He stopped cn the doorstep, shivering
violently ‘Oh, 1 dare not,” he said. ‘Not there—I—I didn’t guess you were
young Count Landrinof.”’
‘*Nonsense,’’ I said. ‘*‘Now we have made one another’s acquaintance, you will find lam quite as good a friend, and perhaps a more profitable one, than —weli, than your other friend in here —Kornilof or Andre Landrinof, or whatever you may call him. Come! He shan’t know you are in the house!”’
‘‘Swear it!’’ said the student, shak- ing more than even his semifrozen con- dition demanded. ‘‘If he were to know I was in the place and on confidential terms with yourself, he would—no, I daren’t come in, I really daren’t.”’
‘Think again,’’ I said. ‘‘Fifty ru- bles a month so long as you live in the house and serve me in any way I shall demand of you. If I should not need your services, a gratuity of 200 rubles each year for ten years, or a lump sum, if vou prefer it, of 1,500 rubles.’’
‘Stop! Is the house so large that I can live in it and this other as well, and he not know I am there?’’
‘Phere is room for 20, none of whom ethould know of the presence of the oth- om”
‘“‘Well, I think I'll come!”’ he said. ‘‘As for information, I cannot tell, of course, what it is you intend to demand of me, but, now that I know you are young Landrinof, I may tell you that 1 ean, if J like, give you some informa- tion which will be usefuj fo you.”
‘*About this Andre?”
“That and the rest.’
“Tell me now,’’ J gaid, “before we enter the DOuSe, because, should the in- fortination be valueless to me, I feed not
ccasion you the risk of coming into the a of the tiger, or rather Andre. Give me an idea of your news.”’
‘‘No, not yet. I will judge of the value of the bargain before I conclude it. Go up the steps by yourself, please, and see that And—, that my friend who is staying in the house is out of the way. If the ccast is clear, I will come up.”’
I did as he desired and found the coast clear.
““Come,”’ I said, ‘‘it’s all right!’ and up the marble steps ran my shivering will o' the wisp and entered the honse.

The old lady merely raised her hands and eyes in surprise at the peculiar aspect of the guest I had brought in, but she was too polite and too well trained to say anything. She bustled about, and
in five minutes she had a comfortable room ready and a grand wood fire crac- i kiing and roaring in the stove.
I bronght the student a suit of my own clothes—old ones—including plen- ty of warm underwear, and the shiver- ing littie rascal climbed into them with a chuckle of delight’ Then I bade him sit and warm himself till dinner time, when he should have the finest meal brought in to him that ever he had par taken of on this planet.

‘“*You are Boris Landrinof, Count Vladimir Landrinof, are not?’’ he asked lazily.
I replied with beating heart that I was.
‘‘Well,’’ he said, ‘‘it so happens that I have something. to say about him that may interest you.”’

CHAPTER XX.
BARGAINING FOR INFORMATION. The little student looked keenly at me to see how I would receive his state- ment. He wished no doubt to estimate the value of the information which he professed to be able to give me by watching the effect of his remark upon the expression of my face. I am afraid I added thousands of rubles to that estimated value simply through my- inability to control my countenance. I would have given worlds to appear to remain indifferent or incredulous or what not, but I was very young and but a poor actor to boot, and I gave my hand away lavishly. I grew pale and red; I knewit. I clutched the arms of my chair; I felt choky and faint. My heart behaved ridiculously and commenced to play a devil’s tattoo within my breast. I could not speak; I believe I should have cried if I had attempted it. Had this little rascal really and truly important com- munications to make concerning my father? Could he possibly know any- thing? If so, Andre was equally well informed. Nay, father must be or must have been, actually in the hands of these rascals, though why or for what purpose they should have captured and kept him I could not conceive. If this student could be brovght over into cur camp and made to feli us all he knew, why, he would ve worth al- nost any money to us. Not only would we learn perhaps priceless news about my dear father, but we should, more- over, be able to score off Andre and turn him‘at once, neck and crop, out of the house; nay, perhaps have him so completely in our power that we should be enabled, by the help of the pclice, to get him quietly sent away to places where he ecenld no longer worry us by his presence, which, of course, we only tolerated for a moment in the hope of obtaining our quid pro quo in the form ; ef information about father.

But the Notary, Mr. Lemire, was cured of Kidney Disease in two months by Dr. Chase’s Kidney- Liver Pills.
Tt is only when thorovghly convinced of the supericr merit of a remedy that public men will give their sanction.
Mr. E. H, Lemire, Notary Public, 160 Notre Darne Street, Montreal, tells of his re- markable recovery from a severe attack of kid- ney disease. When doctors had failed, Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills saved his life. He writes: ‘I give this statement, first because it is only just that the merit of Dr. Chases Kid- ney-Liver Pills should be made known, and again in order that others may profit by my experience. For years 1 suffered with kidney disease which doctors pronounced incurable. Thanks to Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills, which I have used for two months, lam com: pletely cured. They helped me from the first, and the cure is now perfect.” .
Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills act directly on the kidneys, and through their combined influence on the kidneys and liver, cure the most complicated diseases of these delicate organs. One pilla dose. 25 cents a box at all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Toron*a
