A prominent Now York physician

lain's Cough Remedy is intonded espe
cially for coughs and colds, and has
won a wide reputation by its cures of
these diseases. It is most effectual and
it is pleasant and safe to take. For

awful, heavy ache across my loins
which seemed to take every bit of
strenth from me. My back was weak
and helpless. Tho kidney secretions
seemed to get moro disordered as the
pnin in my back increased and they
were unnatural and too frequent in
passage. I was lamo and coulu stand
eroct only with a painful effort. I was
advised to try Doan's Kidney Pills and
got a box. They cured me of tho com
plaint and I have been well since."

HE SAVED
HIS FACE
By DOROTHY BURNS
Whllo amusing myself over somo old
letters from India, written by my
grandfather nbout half a century ago,
I camo across ono to his mother, In
which ho announced his engagement
and gavo an account of how ho camo
to marry:
"You know, my dear mother, that 1
havo always contended thnt neither
clergymen nor soldiers should marry.
Tho first should always bo ready to
light tho devil under tho banner of tho
cross In any land, however barbarous,
nnd tho second to light tho enemies of
his country under Its ling. And It
seemed to mo that If a soldier should
tako a wlfo alio should havo about her
something of n soldier's nature. I do
not mean that sho should bo expected
to inarch to bnttlo like a man, but that
In moments of great danger sho should
retnln her self possession.
"You remember thnt I camo out hero
tho year before tho great mutiny nnd
was assigned to tho th Bcngnl env
nlry at Mcorut, where It broko out.
I saw enough of tho terrors a soldier's
wlfo is liable to among tho English
women, who were obliged to fly for
their lives, many of them being butch
ered nnd somo burned in their houses
whllo their husbands attended to their
military duties, to confirm my opinion
that a soldier should not bo encumber
ed with a wife, or at least if ho has
ono sho should bo a marvel of courage.
"A few months ago, dear mother, I
was Invited to tho qunrters of Colo
nel Crocker of tho fusiliers. Tho colo
nel hns beon In India twenty years
and has a daughter, Cynthln, born just
after his arrival heic, o that, novnr
having loft India, sho has uover seen
England. At my first meeting with
this young lady 1 felt thnt sho wn ;o
prove a strong temptation to mo to
desert my principles. After being con
stantly at her father's bungalow for
three months tho first part of my reso
lutionnever to marry so long as 1
was a soldier was completely broken
down. I was passing an Intermediate
stage between that resolution and my
second if 1 did marry whllo a sol
dier to mate only with n woman of
such remarkable nervo under dnngcr
as I had seen among tho otllcers'
wives and daughters at tho breaking
out of tho mutiny at Mcerut when an
episode happened that broko down all
iitr scruples against marriage.
"I was dining ono evening with Colo-
i-l Crocker and his family. The colo
t i sat at ono end of tho table, Mrs.
Crocker nt the other, while one of tho
younger children and Cynthln snt on
one side and the other child beside
me. A servant was pulling on tho
punkah; another, an Indlnn girl, was
serving us nt dinner. In these days
ono seldom talked about anything ex
cept tho adventures of tho mutiny,
nnd tho colonel, who was nt the tlmo
it broko out nt a cantonment about
two miles from Delhi, was telling how
he tried to lnduco tho mutinous se
poys of tho regiment to which ho was
attached to remain faithful to their
duty when ho was interrupted by Cyn
thia quietly telling the waitress to
place a bowl of milk on the door. The
colonel gave over his narration and
looked at his daughter nnxlously. her
mother doing tho same. I saw at once
that she was moved by somo powerful
emotion. But sho neither moved nor
spoke. We all sat waiting while the
maid placed tho bowl of milk on tho
Uoor not far from Cynthia's chair and
In a position where I could see It.
What was my surprise and horror to
seo a cobra slowly creep from wnoro
Cynthln sat to tho bowl.
"Tho simko had been wound around
hor leg and uncoiled to get the milk.
"Suddenly Colonel Crocker seized a
enrving knife from tho table and. dart
ing to tho snake, with ono blow severed
it In two parts.
"And now, dear mother, I havo como
to the other Important statement con
tained In this letter. This bravo wom
an has consented to bo my wife. 1
enn keep, at least, my resolution not
to marry a woman who Is unfitted to
be tho wlfo of a soldier. Colonel and
Mrs. Crocker havo consented, and Cyn
thia and I are very happy. To crown
all. the colonel Is to bo retired In a
few months and will tiso his Influence
to hnve me ordered to England, so that
wo shall doubtless all sail for homo to
gether. Cynthia nnd I shall not be
mnrrled till we reach England, and
you, dear mother, will bo nt our wed
ding." This Is tho end of tho story as given
In my Krandfnther's letter to my great
grandmother. All turned out satisfac
torily. Colonel Crocker was retired as
expected nnd had influence sufficient
to secure an order for his intended
son-in-law to report at the war ofllco
in London about tho sapie tlmo as he
himself expected to reach there. So
they all wont homo together, nnd tho
wedding wns celebrated nt Twicken
ham, where the Crockers took up their
residence after their return.
There Is u sequol to this story which
goes to show thnt my Krnndfather had
saved his face by not telling the whole
of It. Tho truth Is thnt in tho exuber-
mice of youth ho had talked very loudly
nbout rcninlulng n celibate so long ns
he wns In the nriny. When ho gavo la
he must need havo nn excuse. He
had a very good one. but ho did not
stnto tho case In full. In another let
ter giving the samo story tho writer
said that tho moment tho cobrn was
killed Cynthia Crocker fell over in a
faint.
