A Bad Cold

Cherry rectcraL It removes the phlegm,
soothes Irritation, stops coughing, and In
duces repose. As an emergency medicine,
Ayer'a Cherry Pectoral should be in every
household.
"There Is nothing better for coughs than
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. I use no other
preparation." Annie B. Butler, 169 Fond it,

"I suffered severely from bronchitis t

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. It saved my life."
Geo. B. Hunter, Ooose River, N. 8.
"About a year ago I took the worst "cold
that ever a man had, followed by a terrible
tough, The best medical aid was at po
avail. At last I began to spit blood, when
it was supposed to be all over with me.
Every remedy failed, till a neighbor recom
mended Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. I took
halt a teaspoonful of this medicine, three
tunes a day, regularly, and very soon
began to Improve. My cough left me, my
sleep was undisturbed, my appetite re
turned, my emaciated limbs gained flesh and
strength and, to-day, thanks to the Pectoral,
I am a well man,." II. A, Sean, 28 "Winter

A DARK DAY
IIV MAltV KVIiR PALLAS.
Tho inpldonts of this llttlo story
occupy but n few hours, as the reader
will see, but as tho poet says, lovers
"measuro time by heart-boats," and tho
moments of that dark day seemed llko
years to mo.
I had beon engaged about a month to
Floraneo Iano, daughter of Joshua
Lane, head book-keoper with "Lottnor
& Brothers," and was very happy in
deed, for I had won my betrothod from
rather an alarming rival Melville
Lottnor, a nephew of tliP l)Cxd pf tho
(lrm, a iandsorao dnndy and a great
catch,
Mr. Lane was n serious gentleman,
bolt upright in his carriago in all
senses, a church member and a Sun
day school teacher, and ono whose
boast was that he had "no small
vices."
Floeonco ndored him, and I fanciod
that ho would' mako a very good sort
of father-in-law, ho was so eminently
respectable,
Jtp shook hands with mo next day
and said that I had won a treasure, so
that was all right and I felt that fate
had used mo woll.
I wont to seo my Florenco every
evening, I bought the handsomest ring
I dared indulge in to seal pup engage
ment, and I resolved to make a fortune
for her sake. I often looked at Melville
Lottnor with pity. Ho was poor, no
matter what else ho had, in my estima
tion, having lost Florence.
We had been engaged about a. month,
whon one evening my little treasure,
who seemed to have had something on
her mind for some days, took me by
my upper vest-button, and looking up
into my eyes, said: "Edwin, I want to
ask you something. I know it is not
tho proper thing (or an engaged girl to
go out with othor gcntlemon, but just
for once I will ask your permission
to do so.
"Before we were engaged I promised
to go to the Charity Ball with MelviUe
Lottner. He has written mo that he
has procured tho tickets and holds me
to my promise. I feel as thoueh I
owed it to him to go may I? You
know he has been very nice to us, and
father has beon with the Arm so many
years. Still, I will refuse to go if you
object "
My dear Florence," I cried iuthe
heartiest manner, "certainly I do not
object. Koop your promise; do as you
please. Of course I should not llko it
as a regular thing, but "
"Oh, it is tho first, last, and only
time," Florenco cried. "Of course, If it
wore not an old engagement I should
not go oven now,"
Tjicn. we talked of other things, and
mado a groat point of being vory
cheerful, though somehow I cannot
say I really llkod the idea. It was not
natural that I should, I suppose, and I
felt that I should be glad when tho
Charity Ball was over.
Tho evening cam.0, I sat In own
room, feeling angry with mysolf for bo
ing vexed and jealous, which I was. I
went out after awhilo; and walked
about tho city and met a frlond or two,
ana was asKea uy eaon one what was
tho matter. Then I went homo and
wont to bed, and dreamed that I saw
Florence dancing with Mephlstopheles,
and that whon I rushed toward her and
tried to solzo her by the arm, she
vadished in a bluo flame.
The breakfast-bell orqiisod we from
my rlrst good nap, but it choered mo
greatly to And a noto from Florence
lying beside my plate. It had no
stamp upon it, and had evidently been
brought by a mossenger.
"Dear little girl," I said to mysolf;
"no doubt she know just what a fool
made of myself lajt night,"
I put it In my bosom, for I would not
road it beforo strangers, and I ran up
to my own room to enjoy it there-

loving words from her would sweoton
my wholo day.
How carefully I out tho onvolopo,
how tondorly I drow forth tho shcot of
papor thnt lay within, nnd whon I had
done so those words lay spread boforo
my astonished nnd horrified oyos:
"uooauyo goodbyoforovorl Scorn

mo again for I havo promised to marry
juoiviiio ottnor.
"Flohesce Lane."
For a few moments after readlnu this
uriot letter I fancied that I was dying.
anen l said to mysolf that It was an
April fool trick. Unfortunately It was
not tho first of April. Finally I decided
to seo 1'loronco if I wero oblicod to
break tho door down in order to do so-
I telegraphed to my placo of busl
ncss. (It was no falsohood to say that
I was ill,) and hastened to Mr. Lnno's
residenco.
A servant was swooping tho front
door stops; I rushed past hor and
entered the front parlor.
l'rom tho back one camo n sound of
sdbbing, I Invadod tho room, and thoro
was Floronco prdne upon a sofa, weep
ing oiitoriy.
"Florence!" I cried, siukincronmv
Knees bosido hor, "hero I am that
absurd noto frightened mo but I am
suro "
I put my arm about her.butshn
liftod herself on hor elbow, gazed at mo
with a countonanco of utter despair,
and gasped:
"Oh, Edwin Edwin, you only break
my heart. You must not embrace me,
I am engaged to Melvillo Lottner. I
shall be his wifo in loss than a month
and I I must see you no moro."
"Your father has forced you to this.
Floronco." I sold. "Remember, filial
obedience has its limits; I will resist if
you do not."
But her answer was this:
"Dear father knows nothing about it:
I havo not told him yet. Ho is away
from home. It is all my own doing.
and hero is your ring, anil it is all
ovorbotwoon us."
Then she sobbed again, and at tho
end of two hours I had gained nothing
more.
I left the. house as nearly a madman
as I could bo, and flow at onco to tho
Lottners' placo of.buslness.
I inquired for Mr. Lane, and was told
that ho was absent in "Albany on busi
ness. I inquired for Melvillo Lottnor, and
ho received mo in a gorgeous little
ofllce, whoro he sat smoking a cigar.
I presented my card, ho bowed, I
looked at him, ho looked at mo.
I suppose," said ho, "you'vo como to
know why sho did It? You need not
speak. It is embarrassing, of courso.
but all is fair in love and in war. I'm
tho lucky ono, and if you hato mo for
it I cannot help it."
"I am assurod that thero is some
thing under this," I said. Florence
Lauo Is not ono to jilt a man in this
cold-blooded manner without reason."
"The reason that sho likes mo best
ought to satisfy you," ho answered. I
had a great desire to murder him, but
refrained tho days of dueling nre
ovor.
I departed, fooling that tho next best
thing was suicidrj. However, any sane
man hesitates to escape from his
troubles in this fashion, and in thgend
resolved to bear tho burden Jf lifo.
though joy had fled from it forovor
However, I could not enduro existence
whero it was possible that I mlgh moot
Floroneo, soo hor perhaps with hor
husband. I must leave New York, I
felt, beforo h.or wedding day,
Some one had latoly.'offored me a
position In Washington. I had refused
it, but if It wore still open I resolved to
accept it.
Accordingly I took my way along
Broadway with my hat tipped ovor my
eyes and my hands in my pockets, after
the manner of miserable men, when
suddenly the air was flllod with
cries of:
"Extra, extra! Awful calamity!
Burning of the Albany night boat!
Full list of dead and wounded!"
What did I caro for tho Albany boat?
I envied thoso who wero rid of all life's
troubles but what wero scalds or
bruises, or oven broken bonos, com
pared to tho tearing of bonds that
bound two hearts together? I kept
upon my way until at last I ran Into
somebody who caught mo by the
shoulders.
"I soo you'vo heard the nows, Meudo,"
he said, "and that you aro torribly cut
about it. Too bad; such a valuable
member of society and I suppose it
has nearly killed poor Floronce."
I looked up and faced an intimate
friend of tho Meado family lu Jones,
wno noiu a paper in his hand.
"Perhaps you have not seen tho
Daily Shout extra?" ho said. "Tho last
particulars "
t grasped the paper -thero it was,
sure enough. Amongst tho drowned
wo found tho name of the Lottner
Brothers' oeteemed book-keeper Joshua
Lane.
"Good God!" I oriod.
"Dreadful !" said Jones, MPoor old
Lane, I liked, him but I suppose you
are lu a hurry to go to Florence."
I groaned, I did not go to Florence,
of course, but I went home. I ontered
my room and cast mysolf on the bed.
A minute lator there was a knock on
Powder
tho door.
"A tologram,""8aid tho girl.
I tore it open, and this Is what it said
to mo:
"Deah Edwin, Como tojmo.
Florence."
"Plouso sign tho book, sir," cried tho
girl.
"Oh, Jiang tho book," Icriod.and
dashod past.the messenger and down
tho street.
Onco moro I passed tho threshold of
Mr. Lane's home, onco more I knolt bo
sido my Horonco, who no longer for-
uado mo to hold her hand.
".My noart is broken," sho said. "I
am suro I shall dlo of grief for nana,
dut. now tnat ho Is dead, and cannot
bo harmed or shamed, I will not inarrv
-oitnor, and though I do not oxpoct
youtoforgivo me, 1 will toll you why
I promised to do so. It was that papa
nau yielded to temptation, ho had
robbod tho firm, and would bo sontto
Sing Sing for years if tho fact wero dis.
covered.
"ir l would marry him. Melvillo
Lottnor said ho would roplaco tho
money out of his own pocket, toll papa
and never say a word about it.- Oh,
Edwin how I hated him! But how
could I refnso?"
What could I say? I kissod hor and
clasped her to my bosom while she
wept for hor fathor.
I Was ashamed of boing hannv at
such a time, but roallv. I could nnt.
help it, and under such circumstances
I could not but believo tho departure
or my darling's parent for abetter
world n benign dispensation of Provl
denco. Sho was sobbing foarfully, but
I know sho would recover from tho
blow after a while, and thon a blissful
future would begin fqr us. In tho
midst of this sceno tho door boll rang
violently tho servant shrieked in the
hall and a man rushed Into tho room
it was Mr. Joshua Lane, though
attirodjn n pea-jacket and slouch hat,
ho did not look his usual spruce solf.
"My daughter! my dear! my daughter!"
ho exclaimed, "you havo bolievod tho
bad news!" In a moment Florenco was
in his arms. "I wont overboard," he
was saying, "but they picked mo up in
a tow boat and loaned me thoso clothes.
Thank.God! for I'm not tired of lifo,
and I should bo loath to leave my little
Florenco, though I know sho would
soon havo a young protoctor."
And ho looked such a good, upright
man as ho stood thoro holding out his
hand to me, that a sudden conviction
that Melvillo Lottner had Hod in order
to trap Floronce, rushed upon mo, nnd
on tho spur of the moment I told him
tho story just as my darling had told
It to mo.
The indignation in his faco was
proof enough that I was right, and a
llttlo. lator I had tho satisfaction of go
ing with him to iuterviow that nrch
liar Mr. Melvillo Lottnor.
A very shamo facod cur ho looked as
ho mado his coufosslon, and tho heads
of the flrm.wero as indignant as their
book-keeper.
Master Melvillo has since vanished
from our horizon. Thoy say ho is in
CubajtfAnd Florence and I, married
six ninths ago, live very happily with
my esteemed fathor-in-law.
THIS HEAD OF Till! 1IOUSU.
The Supremo Court of Nebraska has
decided that when a husband is physi
cally unable to support his family, and
his wifo earns tho money to pay the
bills, sho is tho legal hoad of tho family.
Few authorities, legal or social, will
prcsumo to question that such a decis
ion is in accord with tho equitios, aud,
therefore, promotive of tho public good.
Novortholoss, in its tendoacy it is cal
culated to create an npprohonsion In
tho more timorous of manly bosoms
that tho doctrlno of legal headship if
given an inch may gradually proceed
to help itself to an ell; lu othor words
that it might result In a division of
authority which would afford lamen
tably disproof of tho adago that two
heads aro better than ono.
This apprehension is promaturo, to
say tho least. Thoro is not the slight
est warrant for assuming that woman
drest in a llttlo briof authority would
so abuso It by fantastic tricks as to
wring tears from tho angels, as Shakes
peare telU us uiim is wont to do. So
far as actual headship of tho .family
may go money or the capacity for earn
ing mouoy is by no moans tho only
tost of primaoy. Talent of various
sorts, aud especially exooutive talent,
is vory qf ten found to servo the same
function as authority. This, howover,
Is merely de facto authority; which is
a vory different thing from nuthority
bsff ro tho law. Thus fur tho rights of
the husband are entirely secure oven
In J- obraska.
The doorslon is not only unassailable
from tho standpoint ot oquily, but it is
one more proof of the oft-noted fact
that tho Wontren Courts aro taking
advanced ground on questions touch
ins tho legal status of woman whioh
tho more conservative judical function
aries of tho East may as veU prepare
to keep pact wiUi, Meanwhile, and
until the coming of that golden era, we
may expect to see u liegira of Eastorn
wives, with their husbands aud fam
ilies, to the promising Nebraska plains;
for tho women ot the East not only
know a good thing when they see it,
but, no Ingalls tall v woe the cose
with Washington, they seo It a great
way off.
"If you want to grow rloh," said an
aged thinker to a business man who
wa3 about to fata: t a factory, "make it
n rule to give the largest possible
amount of goods of the beat possible
quality for the leant possible sum ot
money." Tho business man took the

THE LATEST DISCOVERY.
It Is now some weeks since consider
able interest was evoked among arch
ajologlsts by tho discovery of a column
by tho banks of the Tiber, containing
tho imprint, not ouly of tho decree re
gulating cortaln days of festival In tho
year 17 B. C, but also of a portion (If
not whole) of tho secular ode of Horace.
In the first enthusiasm of tho discovery,
it was described to mo by one who had
himself, under a tomporary seal of se
cresy, been pormlttod to visit it as bo
ing, in point of fact, practically the
first odltion of tho "Cannon Socutare;"
and In the light of tho controversy
which interested our great grandfathers
as to whore really the productions of
modirjovol monks Newman more than
once alludes to the discussion the
discovery had a literary interest of a
peculiar kind. And though tho lady
who corresponds for The Standard In
Rome speaks of mere allusions to tho
ode on tho columns, that interest is
still preserved. It will bo n disappoint
ment If wo find that thore nre no actual
quotations from the poem on tho pillar.
Apart from their ossential interest,
thoy would add rather unexpectedly
to the boldness of Horace's prophecies
in his last ode of tho third book.
