- Tho ordinary every-day life of most of our women is a ceaseless treadmill of 'work. How much harder the daily tasks become when some derangement of tho female organs makes every movement painful and keeps the nervous system all unstrung 1 One day she is wretched and utterly miserable; in a day or two she is better and laughs at her fears, thinking there is nothing much the matter after all; but before night tho deadly backache reappears, the limbs tremble, tho lips twitch —it seems as though all the imps of Satan were clutching her vitals ; she goes to pieces and is flat on her back. No woman ought to arrive at this terrible state of misery, because these symptoms are a sure forerunner of womb troubles. She must remember that Lydia E. Pink liam’s Vegetable Compound is almost an infallible cure for all female ills, such as irregularity of periods, which cause weak stomach, sick headache, etc., displacements and in flammation of tho womb, or any of the multitudes of ill nesses which beset the female organism. Gooden wroto to Mr*s* PSnkhent when sho I was Sbs groat trouble. Her tetter tells the result. “D^arMrb PinkitaM: -I am very grateful to you for your kindness | and the interest you have taken in me, anil truly believe that your medicines n ana advice are worth more to a woman than all tho fi doctors in ti e world. Liy troubles began with inflarn- is mation and hemorrhages from tho kidneys, then inflammation, congestion and falling of the womb, and inflammation of the ovaries. I underwent local treatment everyday for some time; then, after nearly two months, tho doctor gave me permission to go back to work. I went back, but in less than a week was compelled to givo up ami go to bed. On break ing down the second time, 1 decided to let doctors g and medicines alone and try your remedies. Before I tho tirst bottle was gone 1 felt the effects of it. R Three bottles of Lydia E. Pinlehain’s Vegetable | Compound and a package of Sanative Wash did § I ivipgV rrnonvMl mo more go«>.t than mi the aoctors treatments ana —k—-J medicine.

And yet — 1 thought of y j, always. Don't yon s^o? The situat on was—impossible!" i "Yea?” She uttered the monosyllable gently. Her eyes fallowed the phosphorus lights that slipped through the black waves, rolling back into the night be hind them. The ship throbbed like a human thing, and ehe felt Its vibra- j tion go through her body with a : drowsy, sensuous content. Her hands gleamed whltely on the arras of the j steamer chair in which she lay prone, and the soft night wind lifted the hair back from her face. "You m,ist understand—now?” There was a shad . of anxiety in his voice as he leaned forward and looked down into her eyes. "Now? I am live years older, you mean? Well, I understand. Yes—in a v >.y. One learns many things in live years.” "And it was—for the best? You be lieve that?” She rested her head back on the cushions and lifted her eyes to tiie stars that powdered the velvety y'ooin above them. "Quien sabe!” She smiled thought fully. "It is written. What will be, will be, and all things are by fate.” *.ne stirred restlessly, then turned to ward him and studied him critically. "Well?” he asked. “Is it all written in the stars, I won "We Will See!" *er?" she answered, reflectively. "Are we kings and queens on the chess board? was it for the best? I do not know. I was married to a man twenty years my senior. A perfectly amiable ami absolutely Irreproachable commer cial machine. He was hazily conscious 5-i my existence at odd periods when his stock quotations would permit. That was all. 1 had the flesh-pots of Egypt, and according to the laws of Moses and common sense, I should have gone down on my knees daily and given thanks. But 1 didn't. 1 know that it is not only unorthodox, but execrable taste, to do that which leaves one's private life vulnerable to the yel low journal reporter and artist. To day, Paola and Francesca would be but food for scare-heads and impossible cuts. But I loved you. That is trite ; and commonplace. Nancy said the | same to Sykes. But it is very real, just the same. And 1 loved you—not only enough to brave the flames of hell, but, Infinitely worse, the comment and criticism of the great unwashed. And— you flinched" The tranquil tones ceased for a mo ment, and she pulled the cushion more comfortably under her cheek. "Four your sake-” The words came hoarsely. Her eyebrows lifted, hut she did not speak. Then suddenly he le.aned forward and caught her hands in a tense grasp and stared down into her face with hot ; eyes. “You would—you would have-?" “Gone to you? Assuredly. You knew that I would. But you feared the world, more than I feared—the other place, you know. For my sake, you ; said. Well, perhaps. No doubt you | quite believed it was—for my sake. | But is your genus naturally ao—diuiu | ter. sted?” j The black water rolled and lifted an.1 I fell with a sharp hiss back into the | shadows, and she listened to its muf I fled music with a keen pleasure. She loved the unharnessed strength of It. It was sovereign in every mood. And it laid the memories of its uncounted centuries on her restless spirit and sho was stilled. Here and there behind them the salon incandescent lights gleamed. A measured footfall came through the roar of the waves and the et.'Alning of the ship, passed, and died again, leaving only the noises of tho night, of the winds and waters. Then the lights went out and the vaporous darkness gathered around them and the stars seemed nearer. He drew the white hands up to his lips and held them there a long mo ment. “You nre not merciful in your an alysis," he said slowly. “And perhaps you are right. But 1 do not think so. I—But why dig over the hones of the past? Fate, Providence, God what you wtti-—b: ought us together, oat here on the waters that you have al ways loved. And there are no har rier?. Wo are both free. Today, when I raw the shore-line sink into the wa ter. and turned a ml saw you on the deck? Docs it tell you nothing?’’ Site locked hack Into his eyes with a shade of amusement in her own. “You were always bored, you know!" She laughed, a little, low laugh, then g i'.tiy released one hand from his and drew the tips of her fingers down over his face, Then she held his square chin In her hand and regarded him gravely. “You were always bored—all your life. It was chronic. You were delighted to see me? Ot course. It was u sensation. And sensations nre worth something In this all too prosaic life of ours. Don’t yon know, bore dom is accountable for far more than is generally realized? If tho clergy would only give us a palliative, their efforts would he so much more fruit ful! And 1 was equally delighted to see you. I, too, have learned to value sensations. And you look quite as you did when I- er—ate of the pomegran ate. There is n glint of silver around tho temples—but it is becoming. I could almost think we were back in that other era when we were so tragic. Wo were tragic, were wo not? Life bored you so and I was a new sonsa •i>n—and I loved you with such feel ing. And, after all, it was pouring wa ter upon sand. It was seeing with a child’s faith Aseens'#n lilies grow where only cacti were possible.” “No!—by all the gods I-” “‘‘Never mind Olympia!” Sho laughed, and lifted her chin with de light as tho chill wind whipped the monk's hood back from her face and sent weird Aeolian strains through the ship's rigging. I he Olympian Indies and gentlemen were persons of very uncertain morals. And why swear at all? What matter? All that was prehistoric. It was be fore the flood. Look at that phantom ship with every sail set. ‘And the buz zard sails on, and comes, and is gone - stately and still as a ship at sea.’ Do von remember Lusca? You used to tell me Lusca v. !» n—in the days of lang syne. “Then you still—remember?’’ Darkly luminous in the faint star light, the eyes turned from the ship back to his face. “Remember? Oh, yes! My memory is very retentive. I remember every phase— everything." He leaned nearer and his voice sank. “And care?” he added. “M—Yes,” the little smile again in her eyes. “You care—as you did then?” Her gaze went back to the ghostly ship and she was silent as the black sails sank slowly into the darkness. Over the battling waters floated the low, Irregular toiling of a distant buoy bell. The waves leaped around them like leashed hounds, and the rising wind whistled and shrieked through the rigging. His arms closed around her and through the warring sounds he whispered, his face close to hers—"I have loved you—always." Gently her finger-tips slipped over his face, then round his throat. Then his lips rested upon hers. Presently he raised his head and looked down into her eyes. "You rare—as you did? You will bo my wife?" A long moment she looked at him, then very slowly she shook her head. “1 am afraid it would never do,” she said. ‘‘You have become fixed in my mind as a dead and gone episode—a romance that, was and is not. The commonplaces of marriage would be too complete a revelation. 1 cannot imagine you in that role. No, it— would never do." ,“You mean that you no longer love-” His voice sounded strained, and she interrupted him. “I mean that 1 did love—too well,” she said gently. Then she took his hand between het two hands and drew it down to her breast, while her lips lingered over his efes and brow and hair. “It is life, my dear," she said, a shade of bitterness for the (list time in the serene voice. "1 would have gone to you on my knees over hot plow shares, once. But now It. is live years too late.” The rising gale shrieked around them in gathering fury an.* she lifted her faeo eagerly to the rough winu. The roar of the waves had deepened to a thuncer, and th* ship labored and quivered in their powerful grasp. She stretched out her arms to the storm and Hung her loosened hair across his face and lips. “Ah, had you loved like that!” she cried. A. vivid streak of silver quiv ered in the blackness ahead, and fur an iustant the roar of wind and waves seemed to pause, 'rhea the thunder broke and rolled over the water in mighty w'aves of sound. Leaning for ward, he gathered her into his arms and dragged the heavy monk’s cloak around her. Again the lightning flashed and she lookes up into his face. “We will see!” he Mtld through his teetli. “Quien sabe?’* she laughed. Then from his arms she watched the storm, content. And always her eyes laughed. I*ots of men lose the thousands they have gained because of an insatiate pursuit after another hundred. flnnnr! to n*» nr^ntnf.
