ft .^ Miss M. Cartledge gives some helpful advice to young girls. Her letter is but one of thou sands which prove that nothing is so helpful to young girls who are just arriving at the period of womanhood as Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound. “Dear Mrs. Ppvkham :— I cannot praise Lydia E. Pinkliam’s Vege table Compound too highly, for it is the only medicine I ever tried which cured me. I suffered much from my first menstrual period, I felt so weak and dizzy at times 1 could not pursue my studies with the usual interest. My thoughts became sluggish, I had headaches, backaches and sinking spells, also pains in the back and lower limbs. In fact, I was sick all over. “ Finally, after many other remedies had been tried, we were advised to get Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and I am pleased to say that after taking it only two weeks, a wonderful change’ for the better took place, and in a shprt time I was in fierfect health.^ I felt buoyant, full of ife, and found all work a pastime. I am indeed glad to tell my experience with Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege table Compound, for it made a dif ferent girl of me. Yours very truly, Miss M. Cartledge, 533 Whitehall St., Atlanta, Ga.” —#5000 forfeit If original of nbtve letter proving genuineness cannot be produced. Free to Twenty-Five Ladles.

The Kind You Have Always Bought Signature of JiS^SThompson'sEyeWair "Suicide?” whispered the count, his eyes full of horror. "I have seen nothing that could sug gest suicide.” “Not—-not murder?” almost shrieked Lady 2ysshe. The count fell back In his chair as If suddenly Btrlcken by terror. Once lie opened his mouth to speak, but a low moan was the only sound that escaped his white lips. While those who heard the doctor's opinion sat In silent consternation, the door was flung wide arid Max entered with a vague, Inanimate air of one walking In his sleep. "This is a ghastly tragedy,” he said. “Dr. Hopkins has told me what he thinks—that—that Goffe has been-*’ "Max!" the count cried out, turning toward him apprehensively, as his quick ears detected the forced, nervous and unnatural tones In which the young man spoke. “I couldn’t believe lie was dead un less I saw him, and now I shall never forget the sight; I shall see It all my life,” Max continued, staring ns If some horrible vision, Invisible to others, rose before him and riveted his attention with a force lie was unable to resist “I must get back to Balwash at once, that I may telegraph to the divisional surgeon and to the coroner,” Dr. Hop kins told them. “As there Is no Inn or public room near at hand, he will prob ably ask permission of the family to hold the Inquest here.” “The Inquest," repeated Lady Bysshe, who was almost paralyzed by dread. “We shall do everything we can to assist him,” said Edith, who was brave ly striving to keep her composure, not withstanding the bewildering appre hensions that were crushing her mind. "And I will also send over the police," Dr. Hopkins added, as he took his lea ve. “The police!” Max said shuddering, as If some repugnant idea had suddenly presented itself to him; while he took a step toward the door as if to fol low- the doctor. Then, changing his mind, he hurried to the breakfast ta ble, poured out some cold coffee and Bwallowed it thirstily. "Where is Dunstan?” asked Lady Bysshe. They all looked around as if expect ing to see him. but he was not among them. "Yes, where is he?” repeated Max, with a return of his old energy. "Sure ly he must have heard of this—of what lias happened. I'll ring and ask Rob erts If he has seen him.” The butler, on entering, stated that Dunstan had left the house. "Gone!" Max almost shouted In his surprise. CHAPTER IV. No sooner hail Dr. Hopkins Informed tlie sergeant of police in charge at Bal wash of his suspicions regarding the death of Richard Goffe than that officer considered the news sufficiently serious to warrant hin transmitting it at once to the director of criminal Investigation of New Scotland Yard, who telegraphed back that Detective-Inspector Foundes would be sent down Immediately to Knowlesworth Hal!. When Foundes reached Balwash that afternoon he called on Dr. Hopkins, and without delay drove him to the Hall, where in the locked chamber of the dead a second examination of the deceased was made. "You will see that the body seems in a perfectly healthy state,” said Dr. Hopkins in low, rapid tones, “and the only speck or blemish it shows is found on the neck, under the right ear, and near an important vein. Look at the stain—it has spread and darkened since I saw it a few- hours ago.” The inspector looked at the spot in dicated, and then at the eager face of the living man beside him. “What does it mean?” he inquired, his sharp eyes fixed Inquiringly on the speaker. "It means,” the medical man an swered with grave deliberation, "that, small as it Is, that little puncture was big enough to let his life escape.” "That puncture caused his death?”, “There can bo little doubt of It, as I think the post mortem examination will show. A virulent poison has been Injected, and It took some skill to do it neatly.” In all his experience Foundes had not previous!}- met such a case, and his in terest in the tragedy Increased with the mystery that promised to surround it. “So far as you can Judge at present, do you think it likely, sir, that the deceased took his own life?” the in spector asked. ”1 don’t think it probable. Setting apart the want of motive for such an act, I feel sure that in order to kill himself in this way, lie would need to have some knowledge of anatomy, some skill in the use of poisons; and he was net a medical student.” "Then you believe the man who killed Mr. Golfe must have known the poison to select, arid the place to inject It?” ' So long us the poison was injected tinder the skin at any part of the body the effect would be fatal. But its in jection at this particular spot argues some study of onatomy. The deceased merely felt a slight sting, probably in sufficient to wake him from a sound sleep, when death gradually followed.” “We have a murder of no common kind before us.” T think it the work of no common or ordinary man,” the doctor replied. When presently the latter left, Foundes. aided by the Balwash con stable, began a minute examination of the dead man's room. After a careful search of the apart ment and of the belongings of the de ceased, he made three notes: That although tne dead man's watch and chain were left, not a shilling re mained in his pockets. That he could find neither papers of any value nor letters referring to pri vate matters. That the lower half of his bedroom window stood open, and that near it, on the waxed floor, were scratches that might possibly have been made by nailed boots, or Coots with iron heels. Looking from this window, he saw that the roof of a veranda which skirt ed that side of the house was within a few feet of the sill. The hard, well rolled terrance in front gave no trace of footsteps. "I have been his servant since I was a lad. My father and grandfather and their forefathers have been in the serv ice of his illustrious family. We have always belonged to him,” Urbano told him, a smile which puzzled the In st- -tor. playing about the valet’s thin lil s, which never quite covered the double row of his square yellow teeth. II is ill - -fish was excellent, but his ac jci.-ut lorclgn. With the exception of the butler, he was the only servant to whom Foundes had spoken, and he Instantly set about questioning him. "This Is a strange business,” he said In a confidential tone, as he looked toward the window of the room where the dead man lay. The dwarf-ltke creature contented himself with giving the inspector an Inscrutable glance and nodding his great head. "Did you happen to hear anything this morning?” the Inspector asked, his senses alert. "No," answered Urbano, darting from under his peaked heavy brow's another quick furtive glance, "I heard nothing, but I saw.” "Saw?" Foundes repeated with breathless Interest. "What did you see?” “It will have to come out, so I may as well tell you now'. I saw some one leave Mr. Goffe's room." "Did you recognize him?" "Yes,” Urbano replied, after a sec ond’s hesitation. "It was Mr. Bur bage.” ' A few minutes later and the butler took a message to Lady Bysshe, asking if she would see Inspector Foundes. She had a horror of detectives, whom she had always associated with tragedies, and to whom she attributed powers of penetration that were almost super natural. Believing, however, that It was one of the disagreeable duties which this sad occurrence Involved upon her, she resolved to see Foundes. Sho turned pale as she entered the great hall where he waited her, and there was fright in her eyes. The in spector was a man of fair education, to whom good manners came by nature, which she was quick and grateful to notice. He began by apologizing for having disturbed her, and then said he had heard of the letter written to her by Mr. Burbage, which no doubt explained his sudden departure. "Yes, completely," she answered with decision. “I must ask your ladyship to let me see it,” the Inspector said respectfully. "I have destroyed It," she told him, after a second's pause. She evidently did not recognize the gravity which this act might assume in th« eyes of a jury, and he did not mention it. CHAPTER V. AN UNEXPECTED RETURN. The preliminary inquest held by the coroner’s court on the body of Richard Goffe in no way helped to dispel the mystery surrounding his death. For as yet the post-mortem examination had not been concluded, and a principal witness, in the person of Dunstan Bur bage, was not in attendance. His continued absence deepened the suspicion that had already crept round and darkened his reputation in the public eyes, since it became known that he had been seen to leate the de ceased’s bedroom a considerable time after the latter had retired. But to Lady Bysshe, to Edith, and the count, he was above and beyond all doubt, and no hint of his supposed guilt was tolerated by them, no fear of it op pressed their minds. For all that, Lady Bysshe and her niece were in a state of nervous anx iety regarding him, which increased ! every day that passed and failed to j bring tidings, of him. "Ah, my dear, what a comfort you I are to me,” Lady Bysshe replied. Then after a moment’s pause she continued: “I suppose that when I am to give evidence, I shall have to tell them why he left us so abruptly.” “It is better to tell the truth.” ' “But the publicity,” Lady Bysshe suggested. “It cannot be helped, auntie, dear,” the girl said quietly. If Max shared the belief of his family in the innocence of the missing man he gave no expression to his opinions. "Why don’t the fellow turn up?" he said to Foundes, referring to Dunstan Burbage. “What's the use of his keep ing away? He’s sure to be tracked, and then—" “Then, sir, we’ll hear what he has to say,” answered the inspector. Whilst the search was being made | for Dunstan, Foundes remained quiet i ly at the hall, examining, measuring, making notes, inquiring, and entering into conversation with ail who would j speak to him. A grerft deal of his time was spent in the butler's private room; i for that individual, having spent long 1 years in the family, had much gossip | concerning them to relate in a friendly, informal way to an interested listener. “The valet is one of the rummest looking chaps I’ve ever seen," Foundes remarked. * "Ahem! yes, he’s odd, very odd," the ! butler answered. "Not attractive, I grant you," said the inspector with a sarcastic smile. “We don’t see much of him,” the ( butler replied evasively. “There's some good in him, bad ns he looks,” said Foundes. “Many a good book has a dingy cov er," replied the butler. "He saved the count?" “No. By tearing his bed clothes. ! knotting them together, and tying them to the bars of a window at the back of the house, the count, who was not then blind, managed to escape with Count de Brie a Brae—Your lather runs one of zese department stores, does he not? Miss Coyne—Yes; but how did you know? Count, Etc.—When f a«ked hjm for your hand he said certainly, but if you didn’t suit not to bring you back on Monday, for they never exchange goods on that day. ill son, and Juat got round to the front n time to see Urbano plunging Into he fire. Suspecting his motive, his naster rushed after him, and was wthln a yard of him when a heavy team, like a column of tire, struck lown the valet. He would have been DUrnt to death If the count had not Iragged him from under It, and carried dm out through the flames and smoke it the risk of his life. As, amidst ring ng cheers, he ataggered into the freBh ilr, a piece of burning charcoal struck ilm In the left eye. Urbano was taken :o the hospital, where the doctors thought he could not live, but you see they were wrong,” "So that's how he got the gray patch and the scar?” ‘Tea, and that's why one shoulder Is drawn up to his ear—a sinew In his back got scorched and then contract ed." “It was brave of the count to risk himself like that." "He Is the kindest gentleman living," replied Roberts warmly,” and I will suy Urbano Is grateful; and so he ought, for it was that piece of burning char coal striking him In the eye that lost the count his sight a couple of years later." "Nothing could save it?" "Nothing. Some nerves had got singed and gradually decayed. But he had his reward one way, for my young mistress married him because Bhe ad mired his pluck and pitied him.” “A man must be a good master when his servant is ready to give his life for him," the Inspector remarked. “Aye, and I believe Urbano would give his life for him tomorrow If neces sary. As It Is, he watches him like a dog. and 1 often think he knows what passes In the count’;* mind, for he hands him things before he lias time to ask for them, and If Urbano Is away in any part of the house, he will hurry back to his master when he wants him, and before he has had time to call for him. I have seen that myself over and over again.” "There Is much sympathy between them," Foundes suggested. "I suppose that’s what It’s called," the butler answered. "Now who Is this?” he continued a second later, frowning at a possible disturbance as he heard footsteps outside. Before he could rise the door sud denly opened, and Dunstan Burbage stood on the threshold, pale and tired looking, dust on his clothes, a haunting anxiety in his ej es. He looked at the butler, who rose and remained dumb from surprise; then turning to the man who was a stranger to him, he said; "Are you Inspector Foundes?" "Yes, sir," the detective answered. "I am Dunstan Burbage and 1 have come to give myself up to you," he said. The Inspector stared at him In as tonishment, for nothing could amaze him more than the voluntary appear ance of one whom the most stringent search had failed to discover. "I did not know of the murder or of the suspicions concerning myself until today, when I read them in this paper. It's nearly a week old," Dunstan said, producing a weekly journal. “I must give you the usual caution, sir, that nnythlng you say may bn used against you, the inspector told him. "No harm can come of speaking the truth now or any ether time," Dunstan replied, with an air of frank resolution. Foundes looked at the white, hag gard face and weary eyes of the man before him. and told himself he must not be taken In by an Ingenuous man ner or a winning appearance. He had made up his mind regarding Burbage, and It was li's duty to prove, If he could, that his convictions were right. "I suppose you wish to arrest me?" Dunstan said. "If I do you will be unable to give evidence at the inquest; so for the present I prefer to keep you under surveillance." "When will the inquest he held? “The day after tomorrow.” "I am glad It will be so soon, for I suppose it will decide matters so far as I am concerned." "I think it very likely, sir,” Foundes answered decisively. CHAPTER VI. THE INQUEST. The adjourned inquest was awaited with eager Impatience, not only by all those whom It most concerned, but also by the public at large. Mr. Justin Marlow attended on behalf of the treasury, which had become impressed by the gravity of the case through the representations of New Scotland ^ard, while a lawyer from the country town had been hurriedly summoned by Lady Bysshe In the Interests of Dunstan Burbage. It was understood that Max was also represented by a solicitor. The Inquiry was held In the library. At the head of the long table sat the coroner. The Jurors, whose faces ex pressed on hlr of comfortable stupidity, sat at either side; a row' of chairs was given to the press men. The first evidence given dealt with the manner In which Richard Goffe had met death. Three doctors, includ ing a London physician, had made the post mortem examination, and decided that death was due to an injection of a deadly drug known as Atropa Mandra gora. In their opinion there was noth ing to show that it had been self-ad ministered. The injection could have been administered without waking, or at least disturbing the deceased from a sound sleep, and its effects would have been gradual. The murder could have been committed without causing the slightest struggle or disturbance. The evidence, previously given, of the servants who were first to see the dead man, was read over, after which Inspector Foundes told thut he had ex amined the room occupied by the de ceased, together with his belongings, but had been unable to discover any clew regarding the perpetrtor of the crime. Neither had he found any money or papers of any consequence, though his watch and chain remained. He had also searched Mr. Burbage’s room, but had merely found the ashes of some burnt papers in the grate, together with the piece of signed paper he pro duced, and on which there was no writ ing. The next witness railed was the count, whose grave and dignified ap pearance impressed the jury as much as his affliction appealed to their sym pathy. Mr. Justice Marlow, who examined him, shared In these feelings, and ques tioned him as briefly us possible. The story of his coming to the smoking room about 1 o’clock In the morning and finding the young men card playing was told In a few words. When the party broke up he went to bed, but al though his room was In the same cor ridor as that of the deceased, he had heard no noise of any kind. (Continued Next Week.) -- Spiteful.

WHY HOT WEATHER MAKES WOMEN NERVOUS -.-.- i -- A Well Known Canadian lady Sends Letter of Endorsement to Pe ru na. Miss Mary Burns, 'JS Spring Gardei Bond, Halifax, N. S., writes: "Havint used Peruna for indigestion and stomael: trouble and to build up a broken dowi system with the very best results, I an pleased to state my experience with tlili excellent medicine. I had been troublei with stomach trouble and poor digestim for some years, and although 1 trlet many remedies and dieting, nothin: seemed to restore m,v health until I use< Peruna. in three months I hud entirely recovered my health and strength.”— Mary Burns. Suggestions by Dr. Hartman.—How to Combat the Nervous Depression Incident to Warm vVeather. Nervousness is very common among women. This condition is due to anaemia nerve centers. The nerve centers art the reservoir for nerve vitality. These centers become bloodless for the want of proper untrition. This condition is especially noticeable during the warm season. Every sum mer an army of invalids are produced as a direct result of weak nervous systems. This could easily be overcome by tiie use of Peruna. Peruna strikes at ike root of the trouble by correcting the digestion. Perfect digestion furmshee increased nutrition for the nerve centers. Perfectly digested food gives these reser voirs of lire a vitality which create* strong, steady nerves, and in this man ner fortifies and nourishes life. Miss lllnnche Grey, a prominent young society woman of Memphis, Tern*., in a recent letter from 174 Alabama street, writes: “To a society woman whoso nervous force is oftep taxed to the utmost from lack of rest ami irregular meals, I know of nothing which Is of so much benefit as Peruna. 1 took it a few months ago when 1 felt my strength giving way, and it soon made Itself manifest in giving me new strength and health.”-—Miss Blanche Grey Pe-ru-na Contains no Narcotics, One reason why Peruna has Tumid permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotic of any kind. Pa» runa is perfectly harmless. It can ho used any length of time without acquir ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro duce temporary results. It U perma nent in its effect. It has no bad effect upon the system, ami gradually eliminates c-.turrh by removing tbe cause of catarrh. There arc a multitude of homes where Peruna lias boon used off ami on for twenty years. Such a tiling could not be,possi ble if Peruna contained any drugs or a narcotic nature. At this season of the year we are peculiarly liable to iutinmmntlons of th* stomach and bowels. It is the part of wisdom to learn how to cut them short and in the easiest and quickest mauner. Peruna does tills by its peculiar power over all forms of catarrhal troubles. ■ Sale Ten Million Boxes aYear. I ' BEST FOR THE BOWELS A Visible Object.
