Tho narrator of the story becomes ac quainted with a sttunge old mini who hus u cuilous history. Oncu n prosperous urchltuct, tho old man'H mind has become linimlled thioiigh tho death or his wife. Chopin's famous match whs played at the f iinei nl, and ?lnce then tho old man LamlW Is Ids name who Is omithiiiK ot a iniilclun, continually ilas the maich.

Hut his gieat umbltlon Is to play tho maich on tho or gan In Albeit hall, London, of which He has heaul s-o murh an organ with 10,000 plpts. Jn older to go to London, he Is tulng all his little Income, staivlng him self and 11Iiib tho life of a mler. His ervnnt, an old negiess named Millie, Is compelled to steal furniture Horn the liouse In older to keep heiselt alive. Mho imiator of the story reasons with the old man to get him to llo more comfort abl . PART IT. "Rut uliv should you be In such a litiii)''" I aigued. "Why not eat three lines u day and wait s monthb' moie'" Up looked at me iiltylnRly. He tw Isted ntound on the bench again und plnyed the mui eh from beginning to end. Then lie said "Think of that on ten thousand pipes and don t nsk me w hy I must stni ve." "What could I say to him? I wondeied m bethel he weie not happy for all his sol low to possess an ambition of such stiengtb is suiely voith something. It wns pn!ng toi itself witli bis life's blood 1 left him at his otgai: and ent In seal ill of Mlflie It would neei do, 1 thought, to let her sell all of his things. 1 would ai bit! ate and tiy to coinpi'omlse with hPt. I found her in the kltcljun. Just finishing the feast of s.iusngeb eitlng them I mm the pan In which thei had been cooked and using a bioad butchers knife In place of a folk. She looked even olilei than the mnslei of the house, llei hall was a mstv white, what tbeie was of it hei i hooks sunken in and lior ees were led and nateiy; beyond her htad Iheio was nothing but a diit bundle of lags She staited at me fmtlel as I made m wa ncioss tlie dli ty llooi. "Tonic Millie?" 1 iiuestloned. She said she was. B the time our oonveiallon bad ended 1 had quite a. good opinion of the old woman, who had seted Mr. I.andis over since bis wife bad died and bad le cehed nothlntr foi her woik but her bcant lood, the nionej for which she usuallj bad to steal fiom lilm. For days at a time the old man bad gone without food till she had been obliged to tin eaten to Kill him to make him eat She got bis (lathes foi him by begging ami sometimes did washing to liuv things for him. She said she was tiled of "sieb train's on;" ,so to make sine that slid -would not? sell the lead pipe neivotis, vet mote happy and exuber ant, l judged fiom this that his savings weie incienslng inpldly. Five months went by and I bad giown to love the old man. 1 had long talks with him and argued and aigued to keep him from killing himself. He would always listen attentively and then go tbiough with his nevet-weaiy-lng maich and smile at me and say: "It Is W'oith it. I must Jla 11 on the big oiiian tblnl: of it; ten thousand plpe." He must have lealized that some one was supplying money for lilm and the old negiess to lhe on, but be ald noth ing about It. One day w'hen I called I found lilm sitting on the llooi In front of his oigati counting money Into a small tin box. the pitiful, wuin face, he snld, speak ing 111 a veil' quiet voice: "If lie does- nut go he will piobably go nnid. He's but u tthntt time to llp, uny wuy; ho he'd better go. I'll pay naif It you'll" 1 Intel nintcd him, nnsurlng the otlnr twen("y-llve dollai.s, and thanked lilm piofusely foi his ldmlnufi. The old negiess bud not taken the ticket. "When lie comes to again," the doctor wild, "you tell lilm that thd. Woman has bi ought back the money. That'll In lug" him mound all light, for it's only his neies that ate keeping blin'allve liow. We'll see blm safe aboard the steadier, mill he'll pull tbiough till ho gets to the organ. It doesn't seem to matter what happens after that." lie handed me the twenty-five dollars, and then net about restoilng his pa tient to consciousness. Slow ly the wilnkled lips opened and I stood look ing soi low fully nt my old friend. I hated to He to him. "Be quick," tho doctor said, sharply, "don't let blm think." Then I "explained" to Mr. LaiulK If ull the lies I have ever told bad te pald me half so well, I would not regtet them. Neatly two weeks after that dny when we saw the old man off for his long journey, 1 saw a little note In a newspaper stating that an unknown man had been found dead on the keys of the oigan In Albeit Hall. A little later a friend of mine living In London, to whom 1 had wiltten telling of Mi. IPITEEtEl HEAR VTTEHT T.

Its action .was irregular. There would be tttopulfcOtiniH, or perhaps, three, und then a sudden ees.ution. My heart seemed to icst for the period of. one or two heats, and then resume its action. Sometime such lapses would not ho so frequent as that, but hourccly a day paiscil Uiat they did not occur. It felt as though something would strike the heart with great force, and push it out of place, jmuug inui pcnon, wiieiiever i jay down to sleep or rest, my blinds would become perfectly numb and helpless. I could feel the temporary paralysis oin!niocr tin in, but I could do nothing which would prevent it. My feet were nfleetcd In a like manner, and I had cnnoideiable difficulty in walking w lien such a bpell had possession of me. Nntuially that state ofallairs completely up'-et my neivos, and any one whoe nervous sjttciu is well nigh shattered, can appreciate and understand tho misery, chielly mental, which 1 endtiriil. I lost much sleep and rist, ami often I was torn pilkd from sheer exhaustion to sit down lim ing the day to obtain some repose. Hut us soon as 1 did so I felt that uuuib sensation come o er my hands and feet, and I rocked iolentlyin my chair to drive it Hay, hut frupiently to no avail. "One day mybon, who was Keeping a ding store at the time, brought me home some of Dr. Williums' I'ink Tills for Palo People and advised mo to take them for my heart trouble. 1 did so and soon begun to fcil hUtoi. I used tlio pills about two months and they certainly ciitul me, for now my heart boats regularly und all numbness has disappeared and my circulation is in splendid order."

"They said the yawl nnd cellar should be denned and they cleaned them made me pay five dollais. 1 could have staited In two week1-." He piessed the bills down Into his bo, and after a final cuiessliitf look .shut It and hid It back of the oman. 1 guessed that un agent of the Buaid of Health hud been to see him. Tlnee weeks later he told me that he would be Kone In lhe daysand asked me to eo down to the ship with blm and see him off. He had engaged his pas b.ige in the btfeiage. 'Millie is to haM the house when I am cone and my two bundled a year foi woikinsr for me. She can eat tluee times a dny till she dies " "liut what will you do for yourself?" I asked. "Me9 I shall die when I have played on the big oigan. I shall nut bother about money any moie. I have Jltty dollais besides my ticket w bat mom can 1 need?" That luul been on a Tbuisday In Au gust. His ship sailed on the lollow Ing Wednesday. I helped him pack bis bag and get his things leady, feeling as though I weie aiding and abetting some unlawful act. The old negiess looked glum and angiy. I was to help lilm down to the whaif, so I appealed at bis house at six o'clock Wednesday moinlng. When I lounded the comer I saw a score of peisons standing In finnt of his door, and my heait spuing Into my mouth. I i.in down the stieet and pushed my vvav Into the ciowd. "What's the matter?" T demanded. "I don't know," said the man, "but listen." The walling notes ot the organ stiuck my eais and made me shiver. The same notes, the ume dlscoids walled out un ceasingly. The windows weie shut. I shoved my way up the steps und King the bell. I could hear It awaken the echoes In the all but empty house and then die down and get lost in the wail ing of the oisun. No one came to the door. I tang again, and the ciowd looked at me wondetlngly. My fute was pale, I know, and I must hae looked as I felt, tenlbly excited. "Theie's ghosts In tbeie." I heaul the old man say, and those who heatd passed the i email; to the otheis. and all drew away from the house a little. A policeman came up and wanted to know what the tiouble was. "My f i lend, n musician lives lieie," I explained, "and I think something has happened to him." "King the bell," he said, and then gave It a pull himself. He got no an swer, and the walling of the organ still continued. "Come with me to the back of the house and let us bieak In," I suggested. We went aiounil tbiough a filthy alley, followed by half of the cuilous tiowd A small boy climbed over the fence .and opened the gate for us. The back door was open, and I lushed tbiough the house ahead ot the policeman and Into the pallor, I could see nothing on account of the daikness, but the wall ing of the oi sun chilled me. I knew that my filend lay on the keys. I open ed one of the shutteis, and we picked blm up, the policeman and I, and cai rled blm upstalia to his warpi little bed. He was not dead. When we had bathed his head and foiced a little whisky into his mouth, be opened bis eyes. He cauiiht hold of my hand and gasped: "She stole it all-all all! Catch Millie! I must go and play, for tbeie aie ten thousund pipes!" Then he fell back unconscious again. The doctor stood holding his pulse for a moment, "Wheie does he want to go?" lie asked me, studying the old man's face. 1 told him the whole story us bilelly us possible, and then looking up fiom I-andis, sent me a letter giving me the beautiful end of my sad stoiy. Ob how Mr. Landls- got to London, and how he succeeded In getting Into the big ball, the letter did not tell, liut Just after daylight one moinlng Chop in's "Match Funebie" wus heaul i am bling loi th fiom the poweiful oigan. A policeman, the diiver of a hansom cab and the man in chaige of the bull went to Investigate. When they got near enough to see how old and feeble the man was, they hesitated, not know ing exactlj what to do. The diiver called to the plaver to stop, bu the old man did not hear him. The policeman wus for going up and pulling him f i mil the bench, but the janitor held lilm back. "yes fool," said he, "keep shut an' listen to 'Is plajln'. I've 'eaid thet a good many times, but blow me If 1 evei 'eaid hit played In thet way." So those thiee men sat down and soon they weie listening with ull theli eais and eyes and mouths, too. The janitor told my lrlend of Ifaftet wauls. My dear old filend had neatly finish ed when they came In, but when he did leach the end be did not stop. He staited to play It over again and other men and some women and a few small bos ciept Into the ball to heat the music. The men stood far back with their hats off, and the women with their heads bowed, all deeply affected. Even the small bos kept quiet, v?-hlch Is a good thing for a London uichln to do. As I bad been fascinated, so weie they. The old man was apparently uncon scious of their piesence. He plned as he never played beloie was playing his own funeial match this time and I knew his wife's soul was near blm. The hall was as still as death, save for the music, and w hen the last note came, all the llsteneis held their bieath. Lan dls sat still for a moment and then it was he who bioke the silence with a soft sIl'Ii, but still no one back of him moved. He laised his hand as If to push in the stops, but the aim diopped down to the bench and he would hav fallen bad not the janitor jumped for waid and cauuht blm In bis aims, lie was can led away fainting with ex haustion to a hospital wheie he soon died. "And do ye know "" the janitor had concluded to my filend, his eyes swim ming even then, "every one of them what wus tbeie wus cijln' like little mites of babies when we took Mm aw ay." THE END. secietaiy of the tteasurv. Salmon V. Chase. The ptesldent looked up fiom his book and said, 'Mr. Chase, I wns just reading a most Intel estlng woik, which I have enjoved moie than any thing I have met with In a long time. Let me lead you a pai t of It." And theieupon he began leading to htm Ai temus Waid's lectin e on "Wax Flg geis." The astonished and in Hated secretary of the tieasutv, listening as the other members- of the cabinet gath eied, Indignantly exclaimed, "Mr. Pies Ident, we did not come heie to bear this I'Votlc nonsense. Tor what aie we summoned?" Mi. Lincoln put bis band In his diavver, pulled nut a paper and said, "Gentlemen, 1 .summoned jou to submit this pupei ; not to ask ou w hetber I should Issue it or not, be cause I intend to Isue It no matter what your advice may be; but to ask suggestions as to Its foi in."

As the war nn pioaoluHl itfc t-lobe, Mr. Lincoln and Geneial Sheunan weie In consultation at City Point. One of the questions consideied was what should he done with Jeff Davis when captuied. Gen eial Shetman Inqulted If he should let him escape. Mr. Lincoln told him the stoiy of the Intempeiate lectin er who was plentifully supplied with lemon ade. The host In a. modest way In qulied If the least bit of something stronger to biace him up would he agieeahle. The lectin er answeied he could not think of It he was opposed to it on pilnelple; hut glancing at the, black bottle near by, he udded: "If ou could manage to put in a little dtop unbeknown to me, it wouldn't hint mo much," 'Now geneial,' said Mr. Lin coln, 'I am bound to oppose the escape of Jeff Pavls, but if you can manage to let hint slip out unbeknownst like, I guess It won't hint me much.'

It is time enough for a man to brag about his toutrhness when he has reached a ripe old age. The men who live long lives are the ones who take care of their health in youth and maturity. They realise the truth of the old saying that "a stitch in time saves nine." The ones who don't do this die off of nervous prostration, heart failine, iid consumption. The best of all health-restorers and health preservers is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It cures 9S per cent, of all cases of consumption. It wards off nervous troubles and wasting diseases. It corrects all disorders of the digestion, invigorates the liver and restores the appetite. It fills the arteries with the pure, rich, red blood of health. It tears flown, and carries off old, inert and half-dead tissues and replaces them by new. It builds firm, healthy flesh. It makes the muscles strong mid elastic and 6teadjes aud tones the nenes. It cures ilebility and weakness of every descrip tion. It is the product of the life-time experience and study of an eminent and skillful specialist, Dr. K. V. Pierce, for thirty years chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at lluffalo, N. Y. Thousands of men and women have testified to its virtues. Druggists sell it.
