Thats what a prominent
druggist said of Scotts
Emulsion a short time
ago As a rule we dont
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made so often in connec
tion with Scotts Emulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note From
infancy to old age Scotts
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying im
proper and weak develop
ment restoring lost flesh
and vitality and repairing
waste The action of
Scotts Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul
sion itself What it does
it does through nourish
ment the kind of nourish
ment that cannot be ob
tained in ordinary food
No system is too weak or
delicate to retain Scotts
Emulsion -and gather good
from it

piled that the winter had been hard
ami fuel scarce that his wife was dead
and his children strioken with Influ
enza
But you have had relief Our good
friend the starosta
Does what he can grumbled John
but he dare not do much The barlns
will not let him The nobles want all
the money for themselves The em
peror Is living In his palace where
there are fountains of wine We pay
for that with our taxes You see my
hand I cannot work but I must pay
the taxes or else we shall be turned
out Into the street
But the winter Is over now You
are mistaken about the nobles They
do what they can The emperor pays
for the relief that you have had all
these months It Is foolish to talk as
you do
I only tell the truth replied the
man We know now why it is that
we are all so poor
Why asked Paul pouring some
lotion over a wad of lint and speaking
indifferently
Because the nobles began the
man And some one nudged him from
behind urging him to silence
You need not be afraid of me said
Paul I tell no tales and I take no
mJney
Then why do you come asked a
voice in the background Some one
pays you Who is it
Ah Tula said Paul without look
ing up You are there are you The
great Tula There is a hardworking
sober man my little fathers who nev
er beats his wife and never drinks and
never borrows money
There was a little laugh But Paul
who knew these people was quite alive
to the difference of feeling toward him
self They still accepted his care his
help his medicine but they were be-
ginning to doubt him
There is your own prince he went
on fearlessly to the man whose hand
he was binding up He will help you
when there is real distress
An ominous silence greeted this ob
servation
Paul raised his head and looked
round In the dim light of the two
smoky lamps he saw a ring of wild
faces men Avith shaggy beards and
hair all entangled and unkempt with
fierce eyes and lowering glances wom
en with faces that unsexed them There
were despair and desperation and ut
ter recklessness in the air in the atti
tude in the hearts of these people
And Paul had worked among them for
years The sight would have been
heartbreaking had Paul Howard Alex-
i is been the sort of man to admit the
possibility of a broken heart All that
he had done had been frustrated by the
wall of heartless bureaucracy against
which he had pitched his single
strength There was no visible prog
ress
Paul knew that this little room was
only a specimen of the whole of Rus
sia Each of these poor peasants repre
sented a million equally hopeless
equally powerless to contend with an
impossible taxation
He could not give them money be
cause the tax collector had them all
under his thumb and would exact the
last kopeck The question was far
above his single handed reach and he
did not dare to meet it openly and
seek the assistance of the few fellow
nobles who faced the position without
fear i
He could not see in the brutal faces
before him one spark of intelligence
one little gleam of independence and
self respect which could be attributed
to his endeavor -which the most san
guine construction could take as re
sulting from his time and money given
to a hopeless cause
Well he said Have you nothing
to tell me of your prince
You know him answered the man
who had spoken from the safe back
ground We need not tell you
Yes nrisweredJPaul I know him
He would not defend himself
There he went on addressing the
man whose hand was now bandaged
you will do Keep clean and sober
and it will heal Get drunk and go
dirty and you will die Do you un
derstand Ivan Ivanovitch
The man grunted sullenly and moved
away to give place to a woman with a
baby in her arms
She drew back the shawl that cov
ered her child with a faint faroff
gleam of pride in her eyes There was
something horribly pathetic in the
whole picture The child mother her
rough unlovely face lighted for a mo
ment with that gleam from paradise
which men never know the huge man
bending over her and between them
the wizened disease stricken little waif
of humanity
When he was born he was a very
fine child said the mother
Paul glanced at her She was quite
serious She was looking at him with
a strange pride on her face Paul nod
ded and drew aside the shawl The
baby was staring at him with wise
grave eyes as if it could have told him
a thing or two if it had only been gift
ed with the necessary speech Paul
knew that look It meant starvation
What is it asked the child mother
It is only some little illness Is It
not
Yes It Is only a little illness
He did not add that no great Illness
is required to kill a small child He
was already writing something in his
pocketbook He tore the leaf out and
gave It to her
This he said Is for you your
self you understand Take that each
day to the starosta and he will give
you what I have written down If you
do not eat all that he gives you and
drink what there is in the bottle as he
directs you the baby will die you un
derstand You must give nothing
away nothing even to your husband
The next patient was the man whose
voice had been heard from the safe re
treat of the background His dominant
Ws
malady was obvious A shaky hand
an unsteady eye and a bloated counte
nance spokofor themselves But he
had other diseases nioiy or less devel
oped
So you have no good to tell of your
prlnc said Paul looking into the
mans face
Our prince excellency lie Is not
our prince nis forefathers seized this
land that Is all
Ah who has been telling you that
No one grumbled the man We
know It that is all
But you were his fathers serfs be
fore the freedom Let me see your
tongue Yes you have been drinking
all the winter Ah is not that so little
father Your parents were serfs be
fore the freedom
Freedom growled the man A
pretty freedom We were better off be
fore
Yes but the world interfered with
serfdom because it got its necessary
touch of sentiment There is no senti
ment in starvation
The man did not understand He
grunted acquiescence nevertheless The
j
There was something horribly pathetic
in the whole picture
true son of the people is always ready
to grunt acquiescence to all that
sounds like abuse
And what is this prince like Have
you see him went on Paul
No I have not seen him If I saw
him I would kick his head to pieces
Ah just open your mouth a little
wider Yes you have a nasty throat
there You have had diphtheria So
you would kick his head to pieces
Why
He is a tchinovnik a government
spy He lives on the taxes But it
will not be for long There is a time
coming
Ah What sort of a time Now
you must take this to the starosta
ne will give you a bottle It is not to
drink It is to wash your throat with
Remember that and do not give It to
your wife by way of a tonic as you did
last time So there are changes com
ing are there
There is a change coming for the
prince for all the princes replied the
man in the usual taproom jargon for
the emperor too The poor man has
had enough of it God made the world
for the poor man as well as for the
rich Riches should be equally divided
They are going to be The country is
going to be governed by a mir There
will be no taxes The mir makes no
taxes It is the tchinovniks who make
the taxes and live on them
The next comer was afflicted with a
wound that would not heal a common
trouble in cold countries While at
tending to this sickening sore Paul
continued his conversation with the
last patient
You must tell me he said when
these changes are about to come I
should like to be there to see It will
be interesting
The man laughed mysteriously
So the government is to be by a
mir Is It went on Paul
Yes the poor man is to have a say
in it
That will be interesting But at the
mir every one talks at once and no one
listens Is it not so
The man made no reply
Is the change coming soon asked
Paul coolly
But there was no reply After this
there was a sullen silence which Paul
could not charm away charm he never
so wisely
When his patients had at last ebbed
away he lighted a cigarette and walked
thoughtfully back to the castle There
was danger in the air and this was
one of those men upon whom danger
acts as a pleasant stimulant

CHAPTER XXIX
URING the days -following
Pauls yisit to the village the
ladies did not see much male
society Paul and Steinmetz
usually left the castle immediately aft
er breakfast and did not return till
nightfall
Is there anything wrong Maggie
asked Steinmetz on the evening of the
second day
Steinmetz had just come into the
vast drawing room dressed for dinner
stout placid and very clean looking
They were alone in the room
Nothing my dear young lady yet
he answered coming forward and rub
bing his broad palms slowly together
Because she said if there is you
need not be afraid of telling me
To have that fear would be to offer
you an insult replied Steinmetz
Paul and I are investigating matters
that is all The plain trul1 - dear
young lady is that we C mow
ourselves what is in tL We
only know there is some You
are a horsewoman you know the feel
ing of a restive horse One knows that
he is only waiting for an excuse to shy

or -to kick or to rear oo ols it thrill
ing in him Paul aud I have that feel
ing hi regard to the peasants We are
going the round of the outlying vil
lages steadily and carefully we are
seeking for the fly on the horses body
You understand
Yes I understand
She gave a little nod She had not
lost color but there was an anxious
look in her eyes
Some people would have sent to
Tver for the soldiers Steinmetz went
on but Paul is not that sort of man
He will not do It yet You remember
our conversation at the charity ball in
London
Yes
I did not want you to come then I
am sorry you have come now
Maggie laid aside her newspaper
with a little laugh
But Ilerr Steinmetz she said I
am not afraid Please remember that
I have absolute faith in you and in
Paul
It may not have been entirely by
chance that Claude de Chauxville drove
over to Osterno to pay his respects the
next day and expressed himself deso
lated at hearing that the prince had
gone out with Herr Steinmetz in a
sleigh to a distant corner of the es
tate
My horses must rest said the
Frenchman calmly taking off his fur
gloves Perhaps the princess will see
me
A few minutes later he was shown
into the morning room
Did I see Mile Delafield on snow
shoes in the forest as I came along
De Chauxville asked the servant in
perfect Russian before the man left the
room
Doubtless excellency She went out
on her snowshoes half an hour ago
When Etta opened the door a minute
later he bowed low without speaking
There was a suggestion of triumph in
his attitude
Well said the princess without
acknowledging his salutation
De Chauxville raised his eyebrows
with the resigned surprise of a man
to whom no feminine humor Is new
He brought forward a chair
Will you sit he said with exag
gerated courtesy I have much to say
to you I have the good fortune to find
you alone
So you have informed me she re
plied coldly
De Chauxville leaned against the
mantelpiece and looked down at her
thoughtfully
At the bear hunt the other day I
had the misfortune to well to fall out
with the prince We were not quite at
one on a question of etiquette He
thought that I ought to have fired I
did not fire I was not ready It ap
pears that the prince considered him
self to be in danger He was nervous
flurried
You are not always artistic in your
untruths interrupted Etta I know
nothing of the incident to which you
refer but in lying you should always
endeavor tp be consistent I am suije
Paul was not nervous or flurried
De Chauxville smiled imperturbably
His end was gained Etta obviously
knew nothing of his attempt to murder
Paul at the bear hunt
It was nothing he went on We
did not come to words But we have
never been much in sympathy The
coldness Is Intensified that is all So I
took the opportunity of calling when I
knew he was away
How did you know he was away
Ah madame I know more than I
am credited with
Etta gave a little laugh and shrugged
her shoulders
You do not care for Osterno sug
gested De Chauxville
I hate it
Precisely and I am here to help you
to get away from Russia once for all
Ah you may shake your head Some
day perhaps I shall succeed in convinc
ing you that I have only your interests
at heart I am here princess to make
a little arrangement with you a final
arrangement I hope
Ho paused looking at her with a
sudden gleam in his eyes
Not the last of all he added In a
different tone That will make you
my wife
Etta allowed this statement to pass
unchallenged Her courage and energy
were not exhausted She was learning
to nurse her forces
Your husband went on De Chaux
ville after he had sufficiently enjoyed
the savor of his own words is a
brave man To frighten him it is nec
essary to resort to strong measures
The last and the strongest measure in
the diplomats scale is the people The
people madame will take no denial
It is a game I have played before a
dangerous game but I am not afraid
You need not trouble to be theatrical
with me put in Etta scornfully
A man who plays for a high stake
went on the Frenchman in a quieter
voice must be content to throw his
all on the table time after time A
week tonight Thursday the peasants
will make a demonstration You know
as well as I do as well as Prince Pav
lo does despite his imperturbable face
that the whole country is a
which may break forth at any moment
But the control is strong and therefore
there is never a large eruption a grum
ble here a gleam of fire there a sullen
heat everywhere But a little eruption
is enough to wipe out one man if he be
standing o te spot
Go on 1 Etta quietly too quiet
Iy De Chauxville might have thought
had he been calmer
I want you he went on to assist
me We shall be ready on Thursday
I shall not appear in the matter nt all
I have strong colleagues at my back
Starvation and misery properly han
dled are strong incentives
And how do you propose to handle
them asked Etta in the same quiet
voice
The peasants will make a demon-

McCook C0CO Mr
Last Saturday evening closed the srr
ies of lectures to non Catholics which
were given last week by Rev Edw Mul
laly a Paulist brother from Chcagn
The lecture Saturday evening though
mainly a resume of the proceeding ones
made a splendid climax and was per
haps the most impressive of the entiro
week At the close of his address
Father Mullaly sang Lead Kindly
Light in such a simple way yet so full
of expression that it must have gone
straight to the hearts of the listeners
Father Mullaly made many friends dur
ing his stay here though they may be
mostly unknown to him by his kindly
ways his deep faith in his religion and
the spirit of true Christianity he showed
to all whether of his own faith or not
His mission is one of peace and may
heavens blessing rest upon his work
