In the olden times, physicians accounted searched vainly for the

wise Elixir of Life, or the knowledge whereby life might be prolonged. We now know that there is no such thing

as an Elixir of Life. But we nave learned that life may be prolonged by those who take the right measures.

Any man or woman who will take care of health and take the right remedies for ill health, may live to a ripe old age. When a man feels out of sorts, when he gets up in the morning tired out after a restless night, and goes home in the evening com- pletely knocked out with his day’s work, without appetite or ambition, he is a sick man. If he does not take the right remedy be will soon be in the grasp of consump- tion, nervous prostration, malaria, or some other serious malady.

A man in this condition should at once resort to Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- covery. It is the best of all medicines for hard-working men and women. It makes the appetite keen and hearty. It gives sound and refreshing sleep. It tones and strengthens the whole system. It invigor- ates the heart and nerves. It makes diges- tion perfect, the liver active and the blood pure. It cures 98 per cent. of all cases of consumption. It strengthens weak Jungs, and cures bronchitis, spitting of blood and obstinate coughs. It is the great blood. maker and flesh-builder. It does not make flabby flesh like cod liver oil, but firm, healthy, muscular tissue. It does not make corpulent people more corpulent. Thou- sands have testified to its marvelous merits. Sold by all medicine dealers.

Was the secret. of that in- difference she so fondly hoped would warm into something of the old ardor, to be found in awakening love for thit insignificant chit whom she had loaded with kindness and really lik- ed? What a Nemesis! The more she strove to reject the idea, the more cor- roborative tritles rose in her memory to indorse Lady Mary’s revolting § sus- picions,

It was bitter, very bitter to the proud, passionate woman who best knew what advances she had made to a man who,

It wss wrong and bad, but she could not restrain a fit of angry, passionate weep- ing when she thought of the past, and how cruelly the present revenged it. Yet never for an instant regretted her wn heartiess conduct. - To be poor, and ecessarily self-denying, was something 1.0t te be thought of for her, althongh she was prepared to pay dear for cer- tzin joys.

and bid him leave her forever, this would be joy! But if he ever got this ength, would he go?

Ah, well, there was no use thinking

about it. What needed her whole force of mind and resolution was to accom- plish her brother’s marriage with Edith

Vivian.

“She shall be his wife within six weeks,” she muttered, rising from the cuShions where she had writhed in im retent rage. “She shall be safely out of Maitland’s reach long before they meet again.”

She bathed her swollen eyes, and

- | leaned from the open window to cvol her i | i forehead.

At length the rallying power of a fix ed resolution calmed her. She turned to her writing-table, drew a chair, and el a minute’s thought wrote a care fully-worded letter to Jack’ Maitland—

c ming, sympathetic epistle which e] Winington might have read with impunity. Nothing could be n tendetly graceful than her expres sions of interest in Mrs, Maitland, her regret for his anxiety, her own eager- ness for news of the patient. Then she She was burning to thly the mutual understanding Vivian and Beaton; the tion of the ert! ¢ child of accomplished man of fashion. She thought how might best change her communication with the venom which distorted her own mid, But she was purposeful enough to re’ strain the promptings of unreasoning Bpite,

In such a letter it was out of place to introduce Edith Vivian’s name, and such unmnecessery information might rcuse doubts which she should be the last to suggest if she really meant to carry out her schemes; and carry them out she would, cost whet they might, in lying or intrigue.

Mrs. Winington resumed her pen, and battening down the useless - vengeance that raged for utterance until] a more convenient season, concluded her letter with a kindly message from her brother, which would convey the impression that he was at her elbow.

There ‘g wonderftii power in a clear and thoroughly adopted decision. No energy is wasted in answering paralyz- ing doubts and queries as to the advisa- Lility of some other line of conduct; With a distinctly visible object ahead, it is comparatively easy to shape one’s course.

Mrs. Winington wes afflicted with few scruples. Her own desires, her own ambitions, were the ends at which she aimed. Rut being a healthy, fairly well- tempered woman, cn very good terms with herself, she never quarreled about trifles, and could gracefully give up what she did not care much about. Intensely perceptive of what she really wanted, she always reserved her forces for oc- casions worthy of them. The succecd- ing twenty-four hours she devoted to masterly inactivity.

Though kind and gentle with Edith to a degree that woke the keenest stings of self-reproach in that young woma.:s breast, she was so much engaged tht she was reluctantly compelled to leave her » good deal to-herself.

Ndith loniged to solacé her depressed s;irit by writing a full and true history of the trial through which she had pass- ed to Mrs. Miles, but she had a deep impression that it would be disloyal to Mrs. Winington, as well as to Beaton, if she told the story of her rejection of the latter. She was in truth rather miserable. The fact of her extreme loneliness was borne in upon her with telling force. Her eyes had been open- ed as they never had been before. New needs had sprung up. She could not zo back to the bare existence she had led before she met Beaton and his sister. lier tastes were quiet enough, but her

eyes had been opened, and warmly as | the still loved her kind old friend Mrs.

Miles, she felt that life would indeed be

creary had she no other compan‘onship. |

Mrs. Winington saw with. much satis- faction, the pale, pensive little face of

her young friend grow paler and sad- |

der. She took no notice of the remark- able fact that for three days Maitland had not appeared at luncheon, tea dinner. This silence was, in Mrs. Win- ington’s opinion, a bad symptom, an she determined to break it by a bold and masterly stroke.

Beaton had followed his structions, and duly sent her letters of the most lugubrious description yet nat- urally written—his dramatic ins‘incts, which made him a priceiess jewel in
