At the Last Minute.
SHE looked up quickly, startled by
lila unexpected announcement.
"Coins awny? To Mexico? Six
months?" she cried, repeating frag
ments of the one brief sentence In
which he had told her of his purpose.
"I I didn't know you were going
ftWay."
"No tnoro did I, till an hour and a
half ago. Hut when one's nnother
mun'B man, or a company's man, he
never Is certain where tomorrow will
find him."
"What does It nil mean? I suppose
it's because you're a mining engineer?"
"It's because I have t educated the
company Into believing I'm a mining
expert," he smiled. He rested an elbow
upon the muntel against which he
leaned, and dropped his head into his
.widespread hand. "You know our com
pany controls two or three mines In
Mexico, and In Mexico sudden death
now and then strikes a man. It struck
the manager of one of these mines this
morning; a couple of dissatisfied Greas
ers, employed about the mines acted rts
death's agents, as near as I can learn.
The company received a telegram about
the affair a couple of hours ago, and
decided at once to send me down to
' take charge of the mine for the pres
ent. I shall have to stay six months.
The president promised me a little va
cation then, during which I can come
back North. But I may have to return
again."
All this he said easily and calmly
enough tome of It even lightly. But
now his voice suddenly grew soft and
took on a deeper meaning, and he
raised his head from his hand and
leaned forward.
"As soon as they told me I had to go
I knew there was one thing I would
have to do before I could leave see
you. I could not make arrangements
and come to you both, for my first
through train for the southwest was
due in three hours. So I left all the
arrangements to them and hurried from
the ofllce; they are to send a note to
me here telling me what they've done
and here I am."
He broke off abruptly, was silent dur
ing the time it took him to draw several
quick breaths, and then burst out
tensely: "And you know why I have
come."
"How lonely you will be down there,"
she murmured, hurriedly and lllogically.
Her eyes had several minutes since
dropped fiom his face to the rug be
neath his feet.
He caught her up eagerly. "That's
just It; how lonely I'll be down there!"
He was beside her chair In a step,
bending low over her and talking rap
idly. "I did not mean to tell you of
my love so soon. You have known me
only a few months, and I wanted you
to know me thoroughly before I asked
you to give yourself to me to let me
give myself to you. But when I learned
two hours ago that I would not see you
again for months and months, T was
struck cold with the thought of the
lonely life before inc, and I felt 1 could
not leave without telling you how much
I care and learning whether you care
for me. Think how much your love
will mean to me when I am down there
all by myself!1 If you love mo we'll be
married when I come back in six
months if you will. Do you not care
for me, dear?"
With each eager word his head had
sunk lower and lower, until, when ho
ventured the "dear," his face was but
a few inches from her own, and she
felt his warm breath in her hair. What
he had said hud set her heart to throb
bing wildly, and the answer he desired
quivered on her lips. But there is an
Imp of perversity that sometimes lays
hold of a woman and forces her to an
action directly opposite to the one she
Intends.. Only in his existence can be
found an explanation for the laugh that
came from Miss Thome's lips at this
tense moment.
He shrank back as though from a
deadly danger, and his face whitened
to the color of paper. Ho stared down
at her, dazed, pained, too sick at heart
for the Instant to feel anger.
With her face in her hands she sat
appalled by the enormity of her in
voluntary act. For a minute she could
not move, but when bho heard his cold
and controlled words, "I did not know I
meant that little to you," she sprang to
her feet.
"No! No!" bho cried. "I did not
mean that!"
But before she coulfl explain, before
he could bee that she meant to explain,
bor opportunity for an explanation was
at an end.
At this Instance a maid nppeared in
the doorway. "Mr. Garrison Is below,"
she said; and before Mlbs Thorne could
make reply of any sort Mr. Garrison
himself appeared besido the maid.
"I took the liberty of following my
own card up," ho announced, and ho
entered with tho easy nssurance of a
man who has been received so often
that he Is certain of his welcome. Ho
bowed toward Mlhs Thorno, and gave a
less deep Inclination In Wado's direc
tion. Though down In her heart Miss
Thorno resented tho appearance of Mr.
Garrison, yet In It she found a tempor
ary relief from tho painful situation
caused by her Involuntary laugh, and
she went toward him wlh right hand
outstretched and with, a smile on her
face. "I'm very glad to bee you," she
said.
Wade, with a hope In his breast that
hud just met violent death, stiffened
visibly at this reception accorded the
man whom report had for his rival. Ha
added together Garrison's welcome and
the laughter with which his avowal of
lovo hud been received. Tho result was
as obvious as tho sum of one and two.
Her heart was in the keeping of this
other man, ,
There was within Wade too great an
emotional tumult for him to give any
heed to tho conversation that followed.
His great desire was to receive tho
earliest opportunity to escape without
making his retirement seem too much
like retreat. So U was that the en
trance of the maid with the expected
note was to him a relief signal.
Ho glapced the letter through hur
riedly, then turned to Miss Thorne and
Mr, Garrison; "The office boy who
brought this Is waiting at the d?or;
I'll Just tell him what to say In reply.
Excuse me for a couple of minutes."
Tho Instant he was gone, Garrison
turned quickly to Miss Thorne, "I can
guess what ho has been saylnjf fo you,
yjw eyes of love can always see such
things. Since he hus told you of his
love, I niua'Mell you of mine before you '
glvo him his answer. 1 can not lose
you without at least telling you how
much 1 care. I will try my best to
make you happy. Won't yoU'glvo mo a
'yes' before he comes back? It's such a
little word."
At tho end he possessed himself of
her hands, and she, almost taken off
her feet with tho rapid, eager flow of
his words, was too dazed to make re
sistance. But, at the sound of a voice
behind her, she freed her hands with
a Jerk.
"I beg your pardon," were the words
she had heard, nnd she turned about to
find Wndo In the doorway gazing at
them with cold, bright eyes. "I did not
mean to Interrupt," he said with a bit
of sarcasm In his voice, for the sight of
tjielr clasped hands had been to him
more proof, when more proof was not
deeded. "I merely come back to say
good-bye."
"You are going?" She took one hesi
tating step toward htm.
He bowed coldly.
"I wanted to see you for a moment.
There was something something I
wanted to say," she said, almost ln
audlbly. "I believe all has been said." His
voice was as cold as his bow had been.
"Good-bye."
She turned up to him a white, drawn
face, with trembling lips, and barely
touched with her own the hand he of
fered. "You arc going to be away some
time,?" Garrison asked with the easy
air of one who thinks a victory rests
with him.
"I had thought of being away six
months. But I have been offered the
managership of a big mine, and I shall
remain permanently.
The word "permanently" chilled her
heart. In a minutes he would be gone
forever. She drew herself up with a
sudden, despairing resolve as he was
turning fo leave them and addressed
Garrison, though her flushed face was
directed at Wade.
"No, he is not; he is mistaken," she
said, bravely. "You are an old friend,
so you shall be the first to know this.
He is coming back again. He is com
ing back In six months."
She moved close up to Wade and
slipped a hand through his arm, with
out, however, taking her tear-bright
eyes .from his face; and her voice sank
to a tremulous whisper: "Ho is com
ing back to marry me." Chicago

INDUSTRIAL JOTTINGS.
Demand for Pig Iron Is So Strong
That the Shortage Is Becoming
Pronounced The Board.
There Is an increasing demand for
pig iron, and the shortage is becoming
pronounced. Importations of Scotch
and English iron are now being made
at the rate of 1,090 tons a day. Rogers,
Brown & Co., reviewing the situation,
say:
"The country seems to be just adjust
ing Itself to the breadth and genuine
character of tho great revival in iron
and steel. The theory that it was ab.
normal, because it was too great, and
must soon collapse because great mar
kets have collapsed in the past, has
prevailed until recently. Each week
that passes with a still brondcr market
and still firmer prices and new work of
every kind, Increases the number o
thobe who believe that the revival Is
not ephemeral but lasting. The great
work of construction and reconstruction
In the country, instead of being over,
has scarcely begun.
"Barring unexpected calamities, the
iron-producing capacity of America, far
from being over-developed, will have all
it can do to keep pace with the coun
try's legitimate demand. Great Incon
venience has been caused to the fur
naces in Pennsylvania nnd Ohio, owing
to the coal strike. Ohio Iron, owing to
the impossibility of obtaining coke at
the furnaces, has practically di&ap
peared from tho market. Prices for
next year's delivery range from ?20 to
$21 at the furnaces." Philadelphia

In fairyland everything is possible. There arc
wonderful jewels and stores of silver and gold o
reward virtue and valor. There are, too, magical
herbs which heal the sorest wounds and cure the
deadliest diseases. How many a woman looks
back' with a sigh to the childish days she spent in
fairyland before she ate the fruit of the tree of
knowledge and was driven out by the cold sharp
sword of fact into a world of suffering and disease.
Yet while there are no' magical herbs in this
everyday world, which cure all diseases, there is a
cure for womanly diseases which hardly ever fails.
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will in ninety-eight
cases out of every hundred perfectly and permanently
cure diseases which are peculiarly womanly. ' Tens of
thousands of women testify to the truth of this statement.
"I suffered for five years with inflammation which caused
violent pain and often torture so bad at times that I could not be
about to attend to my daily duties," writes Mrs. Julius C. Bell,
Bathroad, Kingston, Out. "Life was simply misery to me and
I did not know which way to turn for relief. Had tried doctors
but found they did not help me. My druggist advised me to try
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. I decided to give it a trial
and I am happy to say that after the use of the first bottle I
felt so much improved I decided to take another and after that
a third bottle. I am to-day a well woman, I have perfect health
thanks to your medicine."
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription establishes regular
ity, dries weakening drains, heals inflammation and ulcer
ation, and cures female weakness. It cures headache,
backache, nervousness, sleeplessness and other consequences
womanly disease. "Favorite Prescription" makes weak women
strong, sick women well. Accept no substitute for the medi
cine which works wonders for weak women.
Sick women, especially those suffering from diseases oi
standing, are invited to consult Dr. Pierce by letter, free. A
respondence is held as strictly private and sacredly

tone during the day was notably firm and
tho market muoh of tho bamo character
as for some days past. The clearing
weather in the southwest nnd thu great
Improvement In the crop harvesting condi
