Richard Rurgdorf. a young German art ist, whose nickname is "1'rinee Chardo," and his friend, Florio, a lllt-mry student, in the course of their Wanderjuhr" through Germany, have reached the end ol' their resources, and lind themselves, weary, footsore and hungry, by the way side near a German town, itiihurd. in whose artistic ability Florio has (trtvit faith. Finks down and ean go no further. Florio bestirs himself lo secure food anil a bed fur his friend. Alter one or two reverses, he knocks at a promising ltmking door. A kindly old Herman woman re ceives him, gives hlin food for himself an 1 Richard, and advises him to put on a bold lace. He noes through the vineyards, makes friends with an old workman, to whom he jestingly talks about his mas ter, "Prince fnurilo." The old man takes the remark seriously, and Florio is In spired with the idea of using his sup posed master's name as a recommendation. In tlu manner of "I'liss-ln-Boots.'' The plan is smvessf til, and 1'Torio obtains work and secures temporary lodgings for himself and his friend, who Is Ignorant of tlie subterfuge. I'Turlo also poses as a famous concert singer In disguise. He gives a trial before a manager, repeating u comical 1'rog song of his boyhood days, and Is nam d at a good salary. He per suades a picture dealer that Itle'iard Is Prince I'hunlo. a wealthy amateur in dl.--siilne, and obtains painting material., for his friend. TAUT V. Armed Willi ,tlio glittering lib on his cap. together with trusty Johannes Mey.let's recommendation, Florin eu Saised tin; looms Without Ultlkully. "You are not plnyintr. arc you, old fellow'.'" liithurd askod suddenly one night as Florin came in. "You cannot be." PlnyltiK?" Florin. tirVned very red. "How .' Whore?

Altfr awhile, with beautiful candor: "It Is merely Home work I am doing for a man who cannot give It to me at any other lime. He pavs me well, so it's) worth while." t'lumlo, never Imiuisitive, mill weak and Breutly preoceuiieil, troubbd his head no more about his friend's noc turnal ensngemeiitw, and somehow grot the fixed impression that It was of ti literary nature writing- tit dictation, revision or bt.tiiethilir of the sort. "He seems to be a rabid smoker of vile tobacco," the invalid once mur mured, ilrowsll:-, from Ills pillow, ami .'"lorio chuckled as ho yullod olT his shoes. Again later, In the studio one day, the painter. gluiiciiiK at a newspaper, exclaimed, with a certain resentment: "Why. here's a eluin protending to Pine a fmsc song. Willy Wlnkel Is his sweet little toiliima name. Tremen dous success, it says. I don't believe he can hold a candle to you. Let's so and hear him." 1 I'lorio, his back turned, made a wry t"i 111 . 111 Wk P km Pin--Z" "I DON' T BELIEVE HE CAN' IIOT.n A CANDLE TO YOU. AND 11 KA H HI.M." LET'S GO T'nder the pledge, of secrecy he con fided Prince Churdo's name, even the long Latin one, to the .gardener, and urged tht necessity of leaving the lilgh-biini Reiitlemnn entirely to his own devices, for, although of winning mid unliable character, he was singu larly eccentric, anil, partleuftit ly to preserve Ills incognito, would hesitate at nothing. The gardener sagely replied that sov ereigns nml such had mostly nowa days a screw loose In the upper story. All hi; and his old woman cared about was steady pay anil n uuiet tenant on the premises, for a carousing painter, Fuch they'd last hud, they could not abide. Florio found Richard doubled up In a state of concentrated gloom. "Here, little one! Now show the stuff you're made of." Chimin sprang up glorified. "I don't ask you where you got it. 1 tlon't much care If you stole it. Look! Just look lit them," thrusting under his friend's nose some maniacal black streaks which to the artist meant two bare-logged urchins bathed in spring sunshine ami tishin;: In a brook. "Aren't they beauties!" Ke smiled ecstatically. "I'm fairly m-liinn to get lit them. If you coubl have seen the light this; morning. They are coming tomorrow'. 'Ill be there waiting on the opposite bank. And you've got me all these things'.' oh. Florin, I was just ready to curse Ood and die. 1 cannot live unless 1 paint." "Live and paint, Chardo! Taint v.ime Sketchy little things and I swear I'll pell them for you, every one. Then you can paint the great one. Now you anil 1 are going to have a good hot Christian supper and some beer. Hear the chink-chink! 1 earned it." "Hut howV" "it's all right, I tell you. Just give me your head for a little while. Some day I'll tell you some things that will make your toes curl. You slick to your lust. If ut how long do you want to paint the beggars? of course you can't tell how long they'll come. Will a week do? Well, we'll stay here a week. Then we will honorably pay our bill and move on to better things. Stopping heavenwards, you know. Don't look incredulous. You pain me, my son. It is almost as If you were aspersing my commercial Integrity." Willy Wlnkel was a "screaming suc cess." The public said the best thing about him was that he never wus at a loss for a new gag. In his speckled green mummery he warbled and croaked nnd Hopped several months with unabated vigor, before he felt that he had amassed sulllcient ill-gotten gains to permit him to retire from those giltled halls and tread the hum ble and less remunerative path of lit erature. Hut beyond question the hull frog gallantly filled the breach. He enabled Florin to meet decently and in order the manifold Indebtedness he had assumed with such temerity, to nourish Prince Chardo with blood-producing vlunds, to clothe him In suitable raiment, to lavish upon angel-granny kerchiefs, sugar loaves, snuff and caps against the time when he could more substantially respond to her gracious hospitality. One dav. Indeed, moved doubtless by pangs of' conscience, he hunted in) his surly vintner and pre sented him with a portly pipe und some tobacco, yet could not resist the temp tation -to wear, even upon his quasi penitential pilgrimage, the coronet of princely ifervice. It seemed to com plete the episode, he assured himself. One must ulways dot one's l's In short, 1 the frog paid their bills, gratilled all their simple tastes, and fairly started them on the road to prosperity, but, ah, how Florin loathed htm. Chardo looked anxiously at his friend when regularly about yawning time he began to mumble that he'd got to meet a man, absent himself about an hour or two, and reappear, somewhat Hushed, lung after midnight. face as at some nauseous compound, nnd replied, with ills head out of the window: "We cannot afford luxuries, just yet, can we. littlt one? Hesides, the man is probably a blank. Idiot." "No doubt." acquiesced his Serene Highness, Sometimes all things work together for the naughty. Flinlo's frivolous mu sic hall experiences suggested to him n Serbs of sketches which he called "Lchlntl the Seems." The first of these papers he submitted in person to the editor of a large journal, the day after the Frog's debut. The great man hap pened to be suffering from a plague of amit'inic contributions. lie wns of a robust and t-anguine temperament, nntl his young colleague lloundered in pes simism. As Florin entered his sanctum he was roundly asserting that Schopenhauer, von Uurtmnn and even Nietschke were well enough In then. selves, but no llt ting food for journalistic babes. Ibsen he profoundly admired, but could shoot In coltl blood for the huge mental indi gestion he hail cuusetl among feeble minded disciples. Ac for Max Nordau somebody tnnrht to writrg his little neck. "Vital, full-blooded things are what 1 want. ' At this moment in came Florin, whatever he lacked, pre-eminently vital, his article no less. The great man raised his eyebrows, smiled, liked it anil its author, ix;vo him sng geslhms. counsel and. still belter, reg ular work. The relationship proved of value to both, Chardo. fully persuaded his friend was one of tht! most brilliant young men Ihe wr.rld lias ever seen, was yet astonished that his first jour nalistic work wus so remunerative, for tin y wanted for nothing. Nemesis oughlj obviously to have overtaken Florin, but in this instance was unpunciuul. The classic dame sometimes misses our modern connec tions. It is true he imagined her dog ging his footsteps, anil he frc.piently had to realize that the way of the trans gressor is hard, l.ut just us his perju- ONXY HIS LITTLE ECCENTHIC WAY. rles seemed on the point of being found out, some fresh burst of inspired im pudence would rescue him. His pro geny of fibs prospered amazingly well, never Jostling one another rudely and putting their progenitor to shame. His most precarious task was to manage the prince, who, as his health Improved, nnd his spirits rose, would persist In slapping Florio on the back at Inopportune moments, throwing an affectionate arm across) his shoulders, as the friends strolled toward evening in the garden, even condescending to call him "old hoy" or- "Dumpling" a nursery name resulting from certain quondam contours which the years had kindly obliterated when Florio would shoot a-sneaklmr glance at the worthy old couple in their cottage porch, as much as to sav: "It's only his little eccentric way!" and they would nod astutely. x Hut Florio enjoyed exquisite mo ments of compensation. He liked to stand at an open window, the cigarette box in his hand, and Inquire in the must solicitous and devoted manner conceivable: "Does your Highness deign to smoke?" His Highness, working away as usual at a picture, would rarely turn his head, but merely say, In his pleasant, low voice: "What an Incorrigible ass you are!" "Quite prince like," the gard ener told his- wife. PART VI. Chardo,' not lielnj an Infant, a con vict or a maniac, could hardly be Incited up for safe keeping. Like other young men, he had the Inveterate habit of going where lie pleased. Whenever Florio found the rooms deserted he would pace them restlessly until he saw Itiebaid striding In with still un clouded brow. He not unnaturally strayed inlo picture exhibitions, chat ted with palmers, now and again, to Florio's grlr.i despair, went of an even ing to drink a glass ,t beer in a cheer ful place frequented by the fraternity. If a stray artist chanced to walk into the studio he always found that other fellow unsocial, if not surly. Police men and po.stnicn. In the innocent dis charge of their duties, occasioned Florio many not insignificant flights, in every reasonable and unreasonable. way ditl he sock to avert the ever im pending disastrous carambolage of liurgdorf und Prince Chardo, ut least until the f irmer young gentleman had built ut) a reputation upon legitimate foundations. Jiuf, the conoid rc.tor fared better than his deserts, and es caped with his fears and forebodings. Luckily for him, Kichard, for the most part, desired nothing better than to liluin mankind and paint. lleserved, sensitive, moody, inspired by lurga holies, and dialing at the prolonged de lay in tlvdr fruit ion, prom) of Florio's success, yet longing to bear his own shares of their burdens, he worked un ceasingly, bided his lime, lived the life of a hermit, aril cared for no society but Inat of l.is friend. Yet If the painter so much as stopped to look at sointthli.g in Johanncz Mez ler's window, Florio shivered with ap prehension, and would resort to the meanest Inventions, nnd the longest way around to uvoid that street. "I saw Prince Chardo yesterday." Mtzlcr announced one morning with some complacency. "1 had a good stare at dim." "Oh, did you?" "Handsome fellow, Isn't he? No end aristocratic. So pale and a bit haughty. Wouldn't do for you and me, eh? but just suits him. ll'j stood a long time at my window. Ho almost came in. Then he changed his mind." "Oh, did he?" "I was just about to run and open the door for hlm when he went on." lteeoverin;r from his alarm Florio re plied, with singular vehemence: "It is lucky tor you that you did not. Mczler. He dues nut like that sort of thing at nil. Never open doors for hlin, novel ! The prince likes to open his own doors. Never take any notice of him. If he should come in here be as Indifferent as you can. Never on any account say Your Highness. If you should make any such slip, he would never enter your place ugain or let me. I told you he was eccentric. He In sists upon the strictest incognito. Do you ever hop me in livery?" "Oh, I understand all that. I wasn't born yesterday. I'll be very careful, you may be sure. I must sav I like his appearance, nntl I believe you've pot an awfully good berth. He seems rather fond of you. do you know? I notle.d his smiling and gracious manner as you were walking by last week. After all. it's no wonder." "Do you think so?" Florio returned, modestly. "You see we are about the same age antl grew up together as It were. That is to say, I was permitted to play with His Highness when we wore boys." "Oh, anybody can see with half an eye tha you have enjoyed unusual ad vantages," retorted Mczler, encourag ingly; "I noticed that the tiny we met." Having taken the precaution to re stretch the 'MJoys Fishing" fearing IIS OFF TIB WENT AT A GREAT PACE TWO M I LI'S STIJAKJHT IP A HILL AND TWO MILKS DOWN ACAIN. Mczler might have some occult method of recognizing his own wares Florio brought it down, antl saitl amiably: "I thought perhaps you might like to see this. It Is one of Richard Llurs dorf's sketches. The prince has several at his rooms just now." "Oh, that Is a good thing, I like that. I wish I could exhibit it in my win dow." "Well, I don't know. I must ask the prince, of course. I suppose I can leave it an hour or so." Alezler met him unnn his return with the somewhat embarrassed an nouncement that a rich customtr had taken a fancy to the little painting particularly when Informed it wns by u young painter of note, a protege of His Highness, Prince Chardo. "J hardly know what to say. I sug gested a pretty big price. Just as a damper, you know. She Instantly de clared she'd pay It. She's a person I don't like to disappoint. I explained It was not put into my hands to sell, nnd the decision rested entirely with Prince Chardo, but that only made her wiltl." "Well," said Florio, dispassionately, "I suppose all I can do is lo go anil ask him." Off he went at a great pace two miles straight up a hill and two miles down again, and exercised heroic self-control not to break in a war dunce In the pub lic thoroughfares, for beyond all things he longed that Chardo, after his strug gles, his long Illness, helplessness, en forced restraint and champing of the bit, should have the joy of selling a picture and feelintr his own strength. "His Highness has not the least ob jection," Florio In due time an nounced, blandly. "He might perhaps have kept the sketch himself, but that is no matter. No price is intimated, and the artist is not at the moment ac cessible. Of course. It's a slight thing. Still, It's a liurgdorf. The prince thinks, under the circumstances, you ought to set rather a fancy value on It, with a handsome commission for yourself, of course." 1 "Hurrah! Won't t! And if by hook or crook you can gt ma another little liurgriorf, you'll be doing n.e Ihe great est possible service, for I know a wom an who will neither eat nor sleep until she has one of a size larcer than the Hoys Fishing.'" "Count upon me. Meiler." , The twain concocted a prise which the lady proudly paid in solid coin of the 1 calm. Two more charming little Hurgtlorfs the delighted Mesler sold at romantic rates. Discreet, but strongly commendatory paragraphs about the young artist now began to appear sim ultaneously in many papers, and were largely copied by exchanges. Mesler kindly showed them to Florio, but those journals never lay about the studio. From the day the "Uoys Fishing" was sold. Chardo seemed to take a new lease of life. His a ley became 4uoy ant, his The two young men stood silent vastly content with their lot and each other, and listened to the throb of the ship' bearing them onward toward their brave hopes. At length Florio, half laughing, yet not quite at ease, remarked: "Your Highness need not henceforth be anxiouB about me. It's not a chronic complaint, you understand. I really don't think the dlsAe has struck In deep. Apparently it has not yet seized my vitals. It was only an acute attack of " "Of the literary quality," suggested Chardo, cheerfully. (The End.) . J HE WALKED OFF AND STOOD AWHILE ALONE. bearing erect, his eye calm, his laugh Jolly and his lurge picture grew apace. Florio, covertly watching the trans formation, felt warm antl stout of heart, ami lepented naught of his sins. Hut us he was slaving much in those days with his writing and his nauseating night occupation, besides piloting his libs and Chardo wus now fortuitously Ilium lied, it happened that the star known as Willy Wlnkel disappeared suddcmly from the firmament, to the chagrin of the public, still more of the directory, who declared with pectus he would engage him again "nt any time antl on his own terms, for the Froa or any new creation." Wlily Wlnkel thanked him and bade hltn farewell amlc.ibly as one who may look In on the morrow, for, B'loiio re llected. In the marvelous variety-entertainment which we call life. It Is al ways well to have, aa sailors say, some thing "to windwan"" Soon he was heard In the studio Jov ially bumming: "l'g-gl-loo, Ker-chunk, kerchunk, "l'g-gl-loo. For now he loved his frog again, and that is human nature, "How Jolly good that sounds!" ex Maimed Chardo. "Do you know, you've not suns it an age?" Hardly a score of months from the day the beggars were coming to town, they sat one evening on the deck of a Messngerie steamer bound for the Far east, their way and work clearly ap pointed under sufficiently liberal con ditions. Chardo's lirst real picture hatl been snapped up by the Dresden Oal lery one of the Incredible events which occasionally confound the prudent, and prevent them from becoming al together too bumptious. it was dark and quiet Florio opened his heart, and made clean confession. When he had Mulshed, Chardo was silent. "1 thousht It might amuse you. Somehow it doesn't sound very funny, tine's Jokes so often fall upon the but tered side." He was right. It did not sound fun ny. Still Chardo did- not speak. At length Florifl said, with curious shyness: "I hope you don't mind too much, Chardo. Of course It was awfully low down. Hut so weie we. And, ch, didn't the lies boom!" Hut Chardo, viewing the long per spective, saw neither fun nor libs. Something of which Florio wns quite unconscious streamed warm and ra diant upon the vista and revealed noth ing petty or base. The iiainter reached over and wrung his friend's hand abruptly, got up, walked off and stood awhile alone, re turned still unrhetorlcal -until finally he muttered, much moved: "It must have been a terribly hard pull- anil I a thankless lump!" "StulY!" "Hut 1f course It's like you, Dump ling." , "l'g-gl-loo! Kerchunk! Oot another cigarette, little one?" Everyone knows the biblical story of the passovcr. The angel of death turned aside only at the doors of the chosen people. The first-born of all others were slain. There is a chosen people to day, at whose doors the angel of death turns aside and whose first-born es cape unscathed while the children of others perish. The chosen people are the healthy people. Nine-tenths of the deaths among children are due to the ill-health of the mothers during the period preceding moth erhood. Every woman owes it to hersel f. her husband and her childreu to keep herself healthy in a womanly way. She should thoroughly unrstand her own physical make-up. She should realize the import, tance of keeping the organs of womanhood healthy and vigorous. She can only do this by taking proper care of herself and using the proper remedy for weakness or disease of those organs. The best remedy forweakness or disease of the organs peculiar to women is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is truly wonderful in its effects on the female organism. It allays inflammation, soothes pain and re stores health and vigor. Get it at the drug gist's and take no substitute. Your health and your children's health depend upon it.
