Epilepsy 20 Years,
Cured by Dr. Wiles' Nervine.
A few years ago, Mr. L. W. Oallaber, was
an extensive, successful expert manu
facturer of lumber products. Attacked with
epilepsy, he was obliged to give up his busi
ness. The attacks came upon him most in
opportunely. One time falling from a carri
age, at another dawn stairs, and often In the
treet. Once he fell down a shaft in the
mill, his injuries nearly proving fatal. Mr.
Oallaber writes from Milwaukee, Feb. 18, "95.
"There are none more miserable than epi
leptics. For 20 years I suffered with epilep
tic fits, having as high as five in one night. I
tried any number of physicians, paying to
one alone, a fee of 1500.00 and have done
little for years but search for something to
help me, and have taken all the leading
remedies, but received no benefit. Ayearago
my son, Chas. 8. Oallaher, druggist at 191
Beed St., Milwaukee, gave me Dr. Miles'
Restorative Nervine, and I tried it with
gratifying results. Have bad but two fits
since I began taking It. I am better now in
every way than I have been in 20 years.'

j02 (Continued from last wk.
'Twas close upon V o'clock wnen we
reached the little town, and not a soul
to be seen anywhere nor a light in any
window, but that troubled ns not at all,
having provided ourselves with a good
store of victuals before quitting Algiers,
for here 'tis as sweet to lie o' nights in
the open air as in the finest palace else
where. Late as it was, however, we
could not dispose ourselves to sleep be
fore we bad gone all round tbe town to
satisfy our curiosity. At the farther ex
tremity we spied a building looking
very majestic in tho moonlight, with a
large garden about it inolosed with high
walla, and deciding that this must be
the residence of Ali Oukadi, who, we
had learned, was the most important
merchant of these parts, we lay us down
against the wall and fell asleep, think
ing of fcur dear Moll, who perchance, all
unconscious, was lying within.
Rising at daybreak, for Dawson was
mightily uneasy unless we might be
breaking the law by sleeping out of
doors (but there is no cruel law of this
sort in Barbary), we washed ourselves
very properly at a neighboring stream,
made a meal of dry bread and dates,
then, laying our bundles in a secret
place whenoe we might oonTeniently
fetch them, if Ah Oukadi insisted on
entertaining us a day or two, we went
into the town, and finding upon inquiry
that this was indeed his palace, as we
had surmised, bethought us what to say
and how to behave the most ciTil possi
ble, and so presented ourselves at his
gate, stating our business.
Presently we were admitted to an out
er office, and there received by a very
bent, Tenerable old Moor, who, having
greeted ns with much ceremony, says :
"I am Ali Oukadi. What would you
have of me?"
"My daughter Moll, " answers Jack in
an eager, choking voice, offering his let
ter. The Moor regarded him keenly, and
taking the letter sits down to study it,
and while he is at this business a young
Moor enters, whose name, as we shortly
learned, was Mohand on Mohand. He
was, I take it, about 25 or 80 years of
age and as handsome a man of his kind
as ever I saw, with wondrous soft dark
eyes, but a cruel mouth and a most
high, imperious bearing, which, together
with his rich clothes and jewels, beto
kened him a man of quality. Hearing
who we were, he saluted ns civilly
enough, but there was a flash of enmity
in his eyes and a tightening of his lips
which liked me not at alL
When the elder man had finished the
letter he hands it to the younger, and
he having read it in his turn they fall
to discussing it in a low tone and in a
dialect of which not one word was intel
ligible to ns. Finally Ali Oukadi, rising
from his cushions, says gravely, address
ing Dawson :
"I will write without delay to Sidi
ben Ahmed in answer to his letter. "
"But my daughter," says Dawson,
aghast, and as well as he could in the
Moorish tongue. "Am I not to have
her?"
"My friend says nothing here," an
swers the old irian, regarding the let
ter, "nothing that would justify my
giving her up to you. He says the mon
ey shall be paid upon her being brought
safe to Elche."
"Why, your excellency, I and my
comrade here will undertake to carry
her safely there. What better guard
should a daughter have than her father?"
"Are you more powerful than the ele
ments? Can you command the tempest?
Have you sufficient armament to com
bat all the enemies that scour the seas?
If any accident befall you, what is this
promise of payment? Nothing."
"At least you will suffer me to make
this Toyage with my child?"
"I do not purpose to send her to
Elehe," returned tho old man calmly.
" Tis a riiJc I will not undertake. I
have said that when I am paid 3,000
ducats I will give Lala Mollah freedom,
and I will keep my word. To send her
to Elche is a charge that does not touch
my compact This I will write and tell
my friend, Sidi ben Ahmed, and upon his
payment and expressed agreement I will
render yon your daughter. Not before. '
We could say nothing for awhile, be
ing so foundered by this reverse, but at
length Dawson says in a piteous voice:
"At least you will suffer me to see
my daughter? Think if she were yours
and you had lost her, thinking her
awhile dead"
Mohand on Mohand muttered a few
words that seemed to fix the old Moor's
wavering resolution.
"I cannot agree to that," says he.
"Tour daughter ia becoming reconciled
to her position. To see you would open
her wounds afresh to the danger of her
life maybe. Think," adds he, laying his
hand on the letter, "if this business
should come to naught, what could rec
ompense your daughter for the disap
pointment of those false hopes your
meeting would inspire? It cannot be."
With this he claps his hands, and a
errant entering at a nod from his mas
ter lifts the hangings for us to go.
Dawson stammered a few broken
words of passionate protest, and then
breaking down as he perceived the folly
of resisting he dropped his head and
suffered me to lead him out. As I sa
luted the Moors in going I caught, as I
fancied, a gleam of triumphant glad
ness in the dark eyes of Mohand on Mo
hand. Coming back to the place where we

seH on tne ground and gave vent to his
passion, declaring he would see his
Moll though he should tear the walls
down to get at her and other follies,
bnt after a time he came to his senses
again so that he could reason, and then
I persuaded him to have patience and
forbear from any outburst of violence
such as we had been warned against,
showing bim that certainly Don San
chez, hearing of onr condition, would
send the money speedily, and so we
should get Moll by fair means instead
of losing her (and ourselves) by foul;
that after all 'twas bnt the delay of a
treek or so that we had to put up with,
and so forth. Then, discussing what we
should do next, I offered that we should
return to Elche and make onr case
known rather than trust entirely to Ali
Oukadi 's promise of writing, for I did
suspect some treacherous design on the
part of Mohand on Mohand, by which,
Mrs. Godwin failing of her agreement,
he might possess himself of Moll, and
this falling in with Dawson's wishes
we set out to return to Algiers forth
with. But getting to Algiers, half dead
with the fatigue of trudging all that
distance in the full heat of the day, we
learned to our chagrin that no ship
would be sailing for Elche for a fort
night at least, and all the money we
had would not tempt any captain to
carry us there, so here were we cast
down again beyond everything for mis
erable, gloomy apprehensions.
After spending another day in fruit
less endeavor to obtain a passage, noth
ing would satisfy Dawson's painful,
restless spirit but we must return to
Thadviir, so thither we went once more
to linger about the palace of Ali Ouka
di, in the poor hope that we might see
Moll come out to take the air.
One day as we were standing in the
Shade of the garden wall, sick and
weary with dejection and disappoint
ment, Dawson of a sudden starts me
from my lethargy by clutching my arm
and raising his finger to bid me listen
and be silent. Then, straining my ear, I
caught the distant sound of female
voices, but I could distinguish not one
from another, though by Dawson's joy
ous, eager look I perceived he recog
nized Moll's Toice among them. They
came nearer and nearer, seeking, as I
think, the shade of those palm trees
which sheltered us. And presently,
quite olose to ns, as if but on the other
side of the wall, one struck a lute and
began to sing a Moorish song; when she
had concluded her melancholy air a
voice, as if saddened by the melody,
sighed :
"Ah met Ah me!"
There was no mistaking that sweet
voice; 'twas Moll's.
Then very softly Dawson begins to
whistle her old favorite ditty, "Hearts
Will Break. " Scarce had he finished the
refrain when Moll within took it up in
a faint, trembling voice, but only a
bar, to let ns know we were heard ; then
she fell a-laughing at her maids, who
were whispering in alarm, to disguise
her purpose, and so they left that part,
as we knew by their voices dying away
in the distance.
"She'll come again," whispers Daw
son feverishly.
And he was in the right, for, after
we had stood there the best part of an
hour, we hear Moll again gentry hum-
AU Oukadi standing close beside vs.
ming "Hearts Will Break," but so low,
for fear of being heard by others, that
only we who strained so hard to catch a
sound could be aware of it.
"Moll, my love 1" whispers Dawson
as she oomes to an end.
"Dear father I" answers she as low.
"We are here Eat and L Be com
forted, sweet chuck you. shall be free
ere long."
"Shall I climb the wall?" asks she.
"No, no for God's sake refrain 1"
says L seeing that Jack was half mind
ed to bid her come to him. "Yon will
undo all have patience. "
At this moment other voices came to
us from within, calling Lala Mollah,
and presently the quick witch answers
them from a distance with a laugh, as
if she had been playing at catch-who-can.
Then Dawson and I, turning about,
discovered to our consternation Ali Ou
kadi standing quite close beside ns,
with folded arms and bent brows.
"Yon are unwise," says he in a calm
"Nay, master," says Jack piteonsly.
"I did but speak a word to my child."
"If yon understand our tongue, " adds
I, "you will know that we did but bid
her have patience and wait"
"Possibly," says he. "Nevertheless
you compel me henceforth to keep her a
close prisoner when I would give her
hll the liberty possible."
"Master," says Jack, imploring, "I
do pray you not to punish her for my
fault Let her still have the freedom of
your garden, and I promise you we will
go away this day and return no more
until we can purchase her liberty for
ever." "Good," says the old man, "but
mark you keep your promise. Know
that 'tis an offense against the law to
incite a slave revolt I tell yon this
not as a threat, for I bear you no ill
will, but as a warning to save yon from
consequences which I may be powerless
to avert"
This did seem to me a hint at some
sinister design of Mohand on Mohand,
a wild suspicion maybe on my part, and
yet, I think, justified by evils to come.
CHAPTER XXXVI1L
We lost no time, be sure, in going
back to Algiers, blessing God on the
way for onr escape, and vowing most
heartily that we would be led into no
future folly, no matter how simple and
innocent the temptation might seem.
And now began again a tedious season
of watching on the mole of Algiers, bnt
not to make this business as wearisome
to others I will pass that over and come
at once to that joyful, happy morning
when, with but scant hope, looking
down upon the deck of a galley entering
the port, to our infinite delight and
amazement we perceived Richard God
win waving his hand to ns in sign of
recognition. Then sure, mad with joy,
we would have cast ourselves in the sea,
had we thereby been able to get to him '
more quickly. Nor was he much less:
moved with affection to meet ns, and I
springing on the quay he took ns both I
in his open arms and embraced ns. But
his first word was of MolL "My be
loved wife?" says he, and could ques
tion us no further.
We told him she was safe, whereat he
thanks God most fervently, and how we
had spoken with her, and then he tells
us of his adventures how on getting
Don Sanchez's letter he had started
forth at once with such help as Sir Pe
ter Lely generously placed at his dispo
sition, and how, coming to Elche, he
found Mrs. Godwin there in great anx
iety because we had not returned, and
how Don Sanchez, guessing at onr case,
had procured money from Toledo to
pay Moll's ransom, and did further
charter a neutral galley to bring him to
Algiers which was truly as handsome
a thing as any man could do, be he
thief or no thief. All these matters we
discussed on our way to the Cassana-
bah, where Mr. Godwin furnished him
self as we had with a trader's permit
for 28 days.
This done, we set ont with a team of
good mules, and reaching Thadviir about
an hour before sundown we repaired
at once to Ali Oukadi 's, who received us
with much civility, although 'twas clear
to sea he was yet loath to give np Moll,
but the sight of the gold Mr. Godwin
laid before him did smooth the creases
from his brow, for these Moors love
money before anything on earth, and
having told it carefully he writes an
acknowledgment and fills np a formal
sheet of parchment bearing the dey's
seal, which attested that Moll was hence
forth a free subject and entitled to safe
conduct within the confines of the dey's
administration. And having delivered
these precious documents into Mr. God
win's hands he leaves us for a little
space and then returns, leading dear
Moll by the hand And she, not yet ap
prised of her circumstances, seeing her
husband with ns, gives a shrill cry, and
like to faint with happiness totters for
ward and falls in his ready arms.
I will not attempt to tell further of
this meeting and our passionate, fond
embraces, for 'twas past all description.
Only in the midst of our joy I perceived
that Mohand on Mohand had entered the
room and stood there, a silent spectator
of Moll's tender yielding to her hus
band's caresses, his nostrils pinched and
his livid face overcast with a wicked
look of mortification and envy. And
Moll, seeing him, paled a little, draw
ing closer to her husband, for, as I
learned later on and 'twas no more than
I had guessed he had paid her most as
siduous attentions from the first moment
he saw her and had gone so far as to
swear by Mohammed that death alone
should end his burning passion to pos
sess her. And I observed that when we
parted, and Moll in common civility of
fered him her hand, he muttered some
oath as he raised it to his lips. .
Declining as civilly as we might Ali
Oukadi 's tender of hospitality, we rest
ed that night at the large inn or cara
vansary, and I do think that the joy of
Moll and her husband lying once more
within each other's arms was scarcely
less than we felt, Dawson and I, at
this happy ending of our long tribula
tions, but one thing it is safe to say we
slept as sound as they.
And how gay were we when we set
forth the next morning for Algiers,
Moll's eyes twinkling like stars for hap
piness and her cheeks all pink with
blushes like any new bride, her hus
band with not less pride than passion in
his noble countenance, and Dawson and
I as blithe and jolly as schoolboys on a
holiday, for now had Moll by this act of
heroism and devotion redeemed not only
herself, but us also, and there was no
further reason for concealment or de
ceit, but all might be themselves and
fear no man.
Thus did joy beguile us into a false
sense of security.
, Coming to Algiers about midday, we
were greatly surprised to find that the
ail chartered by Don Sanchez was no
longer in the port, and the reason of this
. J, , XL1 il J I
WB presently luaraea was mat, me uey
having information of a descent being
about to be made upon the town by the
British fleet at Tangiers, he had com
manded the nitrht before all alien shins
to be gone Irom the port by daybreak.
This put ns to a quake, for in view of
this descent not one single Algerine
would venture to put to sea for all the
money Mr. Godwin could offer or -promise.
So here we were forced to stay in
trepidation and doubt as to how we, be
ing English, might fare if the town
should be bombarded as we expected,
and never did we wish our own conn?
trymen farther. Only onr Moll and her
husband did seem careless in their hap
piness, for so they might die in each
other's arms I do think they would have
faced death with a smile upon their
faces.
However, a week passing and no sign of
any English flag upon the seas the public
apprehension subsided, and now we began
very seriously to compass onr return to
Elche, our traders' passes that is, Daw
son's and mine being run out within a
week, and we knowing fullwell that
we should not get them renewed after
this late menace of an English attack
upon the town. So, one after the other,
we tried every captain in the port, but
all to no purpose. And one of these did
openly tell me the dey had forbidden
any stranger to be carried oat of the
town, on pain of having his vessel con
fiscated and being bastinadoed to his
last endurance.
"And so," says he, lifting his voice,
"if yon offered me all the gold in the
world, I would not carry you a furlong
hence. " Bnt at the same time, turning
his back on a janizary who stood hard
by, he gave me a most significant wink
and a little beck, as if I were to follow
him presently.
And this I did as soon as the janizary
was gone, following him at a distance
through the town and ont into the sub
urbs at, an idle, sauntering gait When
we had got ont beyond the houses to the
side of the river I have mentioned, he
sits him down on the bank, and I, com
ing np, sit down beside him as if for a
passing chat Then he, having glanced
to the right and left to make sure we
were not observed, asks me what we
Would give to be taken to Elche, and I
answered that we would give him his
prioe so we could be conveyed shortly.
"When would yon go?" asks he.
"Why," says I, "our passes expire at
sundown after the day of Ramadan, so
we must get hence by hook or by crook
before that."
"That falls as pat as I would have it,"
returns he, bnt not in these words, 'for
all the world will be np at the Cassana
bah on that day to the feast the dey
gives to honor his son's coming of age.
Moreover, the Moors by then will not
rise before 2 in the morning. So all be
ing in our favor I'm minded to venture
on this business, but you must under
stand that I dare not take yon aboard in
the port, where I must make a pretense
of going out a-fishing with my three
sons and give the janizaries good assur
ance that no one else is aboard that I
may not fall into trouble on my return. "
"That's reasonable enough," says I,
"but where will yon take us aboard?"
"I'll show you," returns he, "if yon
will stroll down this bank with me, for
my sons and I have discussed this mat
ter ever since we heard you were seek
ing a ship for this project, and we have
it all cut and dried proper. "
So np we get and saunter along the
bank leisurely, till we reached a part
where the river spreads out very broad
and shallow.
"You see that rock?" says he, nodding
at a large bowlder lapped by the incom
ing sea. "There shall yon be at mid-
" You see that rockf " ays he.
night We shall lie about a half a mile
ont to sea, and two of my sons will pull
to the shore and wake you np. So may
all go well and naught be known, if you
are commonly secret, for never a soul is
seen here after sundown. "
I told him I would consult with my
friends and give him our decision the
next day, meeting him at this spot
"Good," says he, "and ere yon de
cide yon may cast an. eye at my ship,
which yon shall know by a white moon
painted on her beam. 'Tis as fast a ship
as any that sails from Algiers, though
she carry but one mast, and so be we
agree to his venture you shall find the
cabin fitted for your lady and every
thing for your comfort "
On this we separated presently, and I,
joining my friends at our inn, laid the
matter before them. There being still
some light, we then went forth on the
mole, and there we quickly spied the
White Moon, which, though a small
craft, looked very clean, and with a fair
cabin house, built up in the Moorish
fashion upon the stern. And here, sit
ting down, we all agreed to accept this
offer, Mr. Godwin being not less eager
for the venture than we, who had so
much more to dread by letting it slip,
though his pass had yet a fortnight to
run.
So the next day I repaired to the rock,
and meeting Haroun, as he was called,
I olosed with him and put a couple of
ducats in his hand for earnest money.
"'Tis well," says he, pocketing the
money, after kissing it and looking up
to heaven with a "Dill an," which
means "It is from God. " "We will not
meet again till the day of Ramadan at
midnight, lest we fall under suspicion.
