housekeepers are aware of th painful

neb more acute must be tbeir action

Yat unaeruploui manufacturers do not
hesitate to use tliem, because ther
make a ry tow-cost powuer, nor to
urge the um of their powders so made,
by ail kinds of alluring advertisements
and false representations.
All tb low priced or so-called cheap

ically pure cream of tartar and hi-carbonate
of soda are among the most
useful of modern culinary devices.
They not only make the preparation of
nnar ana more aeuaous cookery pos
sible, but the; have added to the di
gestibility and wholesomeness of our
food. But baking powders must be
composed of sucb pure and wholesome
Ingredients or they must be tabooed
entirely.
Dr. Kdson, Commissioner of Health
f New York, in an article in the
"Doctor of Hygiene," indicates that
the advantages of a good baking pow
der and the exemption from the dan
gars of bad ones In which the harsh and
cans tic chemicals are used, are to be
secured by the use of ltoyal Baking
Powder exclusively, and he recom
mends this to-all consumers. "The
Royal," be says, "contains nothing but
oreain of tarter and soda refined to a
ahaaaieal nurltv. which whan combined'
under the Influence of beat and mois
ture produce pur carbonic, or leaven
ing, gas. Ths two materials used,
nam of tartar and soda, are perfectly
hnrmlAaa an whan a-alan hut In thla'
preparation they are combined iu ex
net compensating weights, so that when
ehamical action begins between them
in the dough tbey practically disap
pear, the substance of both having
bn taken to torm caroonic-acia gas.'
Hence it is, ho says, that the Hoyal'
Baking Powder is the most perfect of
' all conceivable - agent for leavening
purposes.
It seems almost incredible that any
manufacturers or dealer should urge
the tal of baking powders containing
injurious chemicals in place of those of
a mll-trnnatn MM and wholeaom
character simply for the sake of a few
cents pound greater profits; but sine
they do, n few words of warning seem
to be necessary.

t waited no longer; hastily packing
n few clothes in a bundle that could
carry in my hand, writing a note to my
lawyer, instructing him to collect the

to lb immeasurable horror of the din

I wee by no means poor. I had on

way, or my story, would only put pur
suers on my track, l need not relate
that night s experience. I refer to it
now with dread and horror. I found
kind friends who aided me and my boy ,
to flee. 1
One afternoon we reached the village
of Sandy Lake, then a quiet little set
tlement whore I felt my boy was safe.
I changed my name to Patterson. It
was my grandmother's name. I need
not excuse that act. Before my God I
I felt that I wasjustified in doing any
thing not crinTvJ, that would prevent
being robbed Stray boy.
My life here is familiar to you and
the good people of this neighborhood.
I have sought to do good to my fellow
men and fellow-women, and trust that
when I am dead some one will have
cause to say that the world is a little
better for Mrs. Patterson having lived
In it.
Four years passed and I was begin
ning to make myself believe that my
hiding place would never be discovered
by the father of my boy. It was not to
he so.
On evening, just at dusk, - my dar
ling Louis came running into the
nous, all out of breath, and when he
ould sneak, he told me of meeting a
stranger who had asked several
uaflttons about his mother, and had
had him run home and say that Silas
Qroundwig, an acquaintance of years
ago, would call to see her at once, f.re
the bov had finished his message, the
man came. I remembered too well
that name. It was my husband, the
father of mv bov. Mv heart ceased to
throb. At least I thought it did. When
the hot blood ought to have coursed
through my veins at lightning speed,
it failed to do its work, and I stood be
fore the man transfixed with horror,
but fortunately I did not lose my con
sciousness. " Well. Madame, this is rather a
mid recention to extend to your hus
band after the long ohase you have
given him
. His voice brought me to myelf. In
n moment I gathered strength, not the
ounv strentrtn oi a woman, dui me
strength of a giant. The blow he gave
aae years before on that bed of pain
seemed to be Inflicted again, and again
Is atnns' me to the heart. I looked
about me and saw we were alone. I was
M thankful my ooy bad returnea to nis
play. Cool and calmly as I write these
wanU I rued at that man. I saw he
was a wrck, and that kind of a wreck
which is ail danger. I looked him
Sriht in the eye. There was no
nn thre. His Hps were closed
thauffh livid with an ashen hue. I saw
the color come and go in his face, as if
hl nrain waa busy with the past.
With the utmost deliberation, and
with a boldness that chilled me
through, I replied:
"Sit down, sir."
"No, I prefer to stand."
"As you please," I answered.
Kiin Groundwiff."
At the mention of that name I started
a though he had struck me and my
boy another blow. I was subdued in
a second. I became meek and weak
as a little child. All my great cour
age had gone from me. I was help
less and powerless. I felt I was again
in that man's mercy. A dread of a ter-
ihln anmnthln? about to happen un
nerved mo, and I waited with breath
less anxiety the next step in tne arama.
Was it to end with a tragedy?
"Susan Groundwig," and I again
tji-tH at the sound of that name,
I'Vm, An not answer. Do vou not know
vourname? You may forget it, but
you cannot forget you are my wife."
"Silas Groundwig," at last I found
strength and courage to say, "you
have no right, sir. to call me by that
name. When a husband strikes his
if and her unborn babe a blow with
Intent to kill both, he has no right to
over again come into that woman's
and pollute the air she

hood. nil. everything, I fled from, to
escape your t rat to oarry off my
ohiid. At '- on ham lonnd nan.
And now, Silas Ground wig, what is
your wish?"
For more than a minute, which
seemed an hour, he stood before me
and answered not a word.
He was pale and white and still as a
dead man right from the grave. Fi
nally the painful stillness was broken
by Groundwig's exclaiming:
"Suean Groundwig, the business
which brought me here can be easily
arranged, and long before the clock
strikes 10 I can be on my way out of
your presence as my presence seems
so hateful to you never again to re
turn. It is for you to say not for me;
or before the clock shall strike again,
I can signal my comrades, who are
hard by, to seize your boy, aud take
him forever from jiir sight."
I was stunned for moment and it
took me several seconds to collect
sense and strength to say:
"Silas Grouadwig, what is it you
ask?"
-'Madam, I want nothing but you can
mmnlv with. I am Door: I am an out
cast in the world. I have been driven
to desperate deeds to make the world
give me a living. I am at the mercy of
worse outlaws than myself. They have
come hither at my bidding to obtain
money. I know you have it in your
house and I want 15,000. I must have
it and don't care to areue the matter
It is useless to sav that to comply with
my request you make yourselfand your
ooy neggars, ana, in laeopuuuauijuui
neighbors, yourself a thief. I care
nothine for such pleas. Neither do my
comrades outeide, whose mutterings
you can hear this moment. There is
no time to lose. I must signal them to
come in for money or your boy. They
have been promised one or the other.
Where now was mv uoa lonne
didn't strike that wretch dead as he
stood there, with such words on his
lips? Iam to rob myself, rob my boy
rob my friends and go forth to-morrow
a beggar and a thief, and for what?
Heavens! to save my child! Can I
lons-er hesitate? Monev. honor, repu
tation, everything I have in this world
must go if I would have my boy stay.
Mv bead crrew diuv. The room was
whirling round. I involuntarily led
the way to the bed room. He followed
me. I took from its hiding place
key. I unlocked my writing desk.
I
touohed a secret spring in a drawer.
I
pointed to the exposed money. Not a
word is said. JUe seizes tne roil oi
bank bills, gave me a demoniac look
and passed into the darkness without.
Then 1 swooned away, w nen i came
to myself I realized what I had done.
MyUodlthe thought was killing me.
I had violated the trust and now was a
thief. Had I not pointed out the money
to that man, that monster? I called
upon my Creator to help me in my ter
rible distress.
Next dav I wag watching from the
window for my little boy to return from
school. And when I saw him he had a
letter in his hand coming up the lane
waving it. Another moment and he
bounds into the room, and throwing a
sealed envelope into my lap, fairly shouts
to me to open it and read it quick, be
cause the postmaster has just received
a dispatch asking him to deliver tne
letter to me 'at once and have me
telegraph an answer. There comes
the postmaster up the lane now.
"Open it mother; read it, quick."
looked at tne roy in
amazement. A dispatch. A letter. An
answer must be telegraghod quick.
What does it mean? More trouble9 Is
not my cup full? Is there room in this
fast throbbing hof for more sorrow?
Can there be any more weary tears in
these eyes? Mechanically l tear open
the envelope. The letter is from my
New England home. I care not for the
date. "Dear madam" are idle words.
A piece of paper drops to the floor. My
boy picks it up and holds it before me
while I read:

THE DAY OF SADNESS.
What more charming and fascinating
time and place for lovers than an even
ing on such n craft or no beautiful n
laker The month of August has fairly
entered on its second week. Th
slowly lengthening twilight bring
with it myriads of object to see ana
hear. The long shadows of bluffs and
trees, which have darkened the water
In big ipots, sesra to have spread until
they cover all tha lake, and it is now
11 shadows, or to shadows, just as fan

weatner propnet s sou, are aunuuiw
ing the prospect of "more wet." Tho
prairie chicken drums and drums, and
fancies the noiae a exiri, while the cooing
doves, visiting pairs, make most plain-
tin waitings, a tnougn mourning ana
loving were to them the same. The
owl, awakening from bis all-day
sleep, stretches out bis neck from ne
neath his wings, and beat a warning
to his prey. The golden-rod, the wild
sun-flower, the broad expanse of prairie
blossoms fresh from their sun baths,
nod in the gentlest of gentle breeses,
and open their invisible mouth to
catch the dews of night. The beauti
ful daisy and the pretty morning glory
have gone to sleep until the rising sun
shall bid them awake. The whippoor
will sits on the branch of an old oak
tree near the water's edge, and tells
all the world within bearing that be
u a whipporwill and must be listened
to. The blue bird and the wren hop
from limb to limb, twitter and chatter,
and goto sleep chattering. The cows
with quickened pace move with single
tile along the narrow patch by the side
of the bluff, chewing their cud, looking
so demurely out of their great Drown
eyes, bowing familiarly to every mum
and shrub, hastening to reao-h homft
before night-fall.
On the brow of yonder bluff, where
the rays of the sun are lingering and
depart' ng, it is said an inaian mauien
threw herself into the waters below
rather than wed against her will.
The sky, too, is full of the glory of
God, and lovers are both deaf and
bund if they find no time lor tne ad
miration of such grandeur. Yonder,
almost in the zenith, is jupiter shin
ing so brightly and looking so proud
because he is king of the heavens even
for a brief hour, and now the great,
round, red moon breaks the horizon
and climbs mysteriously up the clear
sky, the big bright stars, and the dim
little ones, all hide their heads, and
even jupiter himself fades away, and
the shadows come again and cover the
borders of the lake with phantoms of
various shapes, affording tne imagina
tion an easy opportunity to
fancy any image the brain
can design or desire. Light breezes
Bigh mournfully through the trees, and
joining high up above the waters of
the lake, the winds that swept from
the distant prairie, seem like dismal
murmurlngs and harsh mutterings
coming from human voices above the
clouds; or it may be those strange,
wierd noises are voices of spirits from
the tombs of the mound-builders hold
ing converse with the spirit from the
irraves of the long-buried Indians.
These mysterious noises come from
the darkness, and go only with the
light of the morning.
The moon is now well on its journey
across the sky. The fields and river
and lake and farm houses areas plainly
visible as at noon-day. The symmetri
cal stacks of grain stand out boldly as
if saying "we are the staff of life for
man and beast." The hay has been
harvested and the long racks mean
that well-fed cattle shall reward the
husbandman for his labor.
The fields and meadows have been
shorn of their wealth of food, except
the broad acres of Indian corn whose
luxuriant growth makes the farmer
smile as be dreams of fat herds and n
fat purse. That snapping, crackling,
rustling; noise which is the only sound
that breaks upon the stillness of the
night, is the growing corn. It is push
ing, driving, and crowding itself out of
the golden tassel into the ear, return
ing to the plowman sixty and even
ninety fold of increase, tho reward
promised him for his labor and his
faith.
The lights in the farm houses have
long since been extinguished. The
stillness of the night becomes oppres
sive. Strange that the bosom of the
lake should be undisturbed by even
ripple, while high up in the sky the
elements should be at war. The herd
man's dog gives out an occasional bark
to let bis master known that he is an
honest doe. Now and then a dismal
howl, though in perfect concert, comes
from some prowling mongrel.
Save theBe lnfreqjt disturbers of
nature's stillness, and the ever present
commingling of those supernal voices
in the upper air, all over the broad sur
face of the lake, and all over the fields
and through the forest, as far as an eye
can see or ear can hear, there reigns
the quiet of the church-yard at the
mid-night hour.
Some people would think it no time
or place for youth and maiden of flesh
and blood to talk of love. But lovers
are on the lake Louis and Mary are
there and they have been telling
over and over again the story of their
love. Of all this chapter recounts not
a thing have they seen or heard. Mary
annears unusually melancholly, per
haps because tnis was tnoir nrst meet
ing on the lake since her father's
death.

When the lungs an affected it causer
shooting pains, like needles passing
