hurried up tho steps of tho elovntod rail
road station at Foity -second street on our
way homo. Wo lookod bank for a moment
nt tho eager crowd as wo mounted tho
long Hlght. Then ivo wore pushed on by
a smldon movement of tho throng toward
tho station platform. There was a rush,
a hissing of steam, a creaking of iron, a
olnnkliig of gntes swung widu, a lioarso
cry from tho guard, and wo found our
selves swept by tho How of belated pleas
ure seekers irresistibly into a ear already
well lllled. Wo wore separated for a min
uto, and when I looked back I saw Janet
nodding her thnnkH to an odd figure of a
mun as sho sank Into a seat. Perhaps I
should not my odd, for nothing is odd in
Now York, where all nations and all
classes and conditions of men meet in tho
olovated railroad train on an equal foot
ing. Hut tho llguro was a llttlo singular
in that It was not a New York figure.
Tho ruddy health In the boyish faco was
not tho product of New Y'ork air, tho
square cut, awkward coat and tho shape
less folt hat were unmistakably bought at
a "gcnoral store," whore molasses and
seed corn wero leading commodities. Tho
thiok shtnglod hair might Imvo been cut to
tho measure of a chopping bowl. Tho llg
uro was bucolic thcro was no mistaking
it. I mado my way to Janet's side anil
turned to thank her boncfactor. Just then
Homo ono left tho adjoining sent vacant,
and, with tho fooling that reciprocal kind
ness was tho bostovidencoof appreciation,
I pressed tho stranger into it, much
against his will. And as ho protested
earnestly but awkwardly Janet said to
him: "I am sure that you aro not a Now
Yorkor. Our Now York men do not k'vo
their scats to women."
I can soo tho 400 distinct looks of disap
proval which would havo rested on Janot
if hor sooial acquaintances had seen her
thus address a "total stranger." I was
not shocked. I was simply amused. But
I was more interested in watching the of
foot of her fcpooch on her neighbor than In
speculntlnp; on its possible ellect on her
friends. Tho sensitive rural nnturo too
oftuu draws back pained at its contrast
with what is of "tho city." For a mo
ment It was a quostlon whether tho stron
ger would resont thu suggestion, but tho
tactful tone and the pleasant smllo dis
armed resentment. Tho youth went to
tho other extreme. Tho ruddy cheek Hush
ed a deeper red, but not with ombarrass
niont. "No, I'm from tho oountry," ho said
frankly. "I haven't been here more than
a day or two. I couldn't let a woman
stand up and I sit hero. Standing's prot
ty easy for a man unless he's boon walk
ing all day."
There was somothlng porsonnl in the
last sentence that led mo to think that tho
young countryman had been walking a
groat deal Hint day.
"I never was in N'cw York boforo," ho
said. "I havo como from a llttlo town in
tho west to seo if I can learn a llttlo nioro
and do a little more perhaps In n big town
than I can In our llttlo ono. Wo haven't
many chnnccs thore, nnd there's so much
horo tho libraries and tho schools and ev
erything. You'd think I wns pretty big
to go to school, wouldn't you? Hut I
think a man's norer too old to go to
school If there's anything to learn."
lie lookod around to sco what elTect his
llttlo speech had had. Mooting a look of
plonsnnt Interest, ho plunged Into deeper
confidences. No told of tho litrlo town
nnd tho stagnation of its almost insular
life, of tho ambition that hu had to seo
and to loarn, of the lonely fireside where
his mother and younger brother sat his
ono regret. It was not a conversation, it
was a rocital. It caino to an end just bo
fore wo reached our station.
"This is whero I get oil'," said Janot.
"I'm afraid I've been tolling you a lot
that doosn't interest you," said tho young
man, scarlet of face again.
"It interests mo very much," said Ja
net with a slncero smllo. "I bollovo in
the fellowship of man. I hopo that you
may find all that you hopo for hero.
Goodby." Sho turned and nodded, smil
ing to him as wo left tho car. Ho waa

Ho glanced up from ono of them as I pass

into Ills oyos. Somohow tho spirit of fel
lowship of which Janet had given mo suoh
a good examplo led me to stop and speak
to the youth, it I nan onooumorou nun

up a conversation as ho and Janot had
douo, I should havo pnssod him nftorward

net had taken an Interest in his welfare

toward hor home led mo to stop nnd say
a word to tho stranger. So I asked him
how ho was and how ho was getting on.

one of the many internal medicines ad

scientifically prepared liniment especially
effective In adding strength and elasticity
to those parts of woman's organism which
bear the severest strains of childbirth.
The liniment may be used at any and

longer while I dlspo.-ed of soma proslng

como in. Ho sat on the edgo of one of tho
big chairs In which my clients sit. Ho
was embarrassed, but not timid, merely
feeling tho htrnngoncss of his surround

What work had ho donof Well, odd jobs

he was not fit for very much but plain la
bor, at least until ho had hnd a llttlo more

that way, but that was what ho meant to
say. It took him some tlmo to say it too.
"I have found employment for your
protege of tho elevated road," I said to Ja
net tho next time I saw her.
"Not I.oohlnvarf" snld Janet, for so wo
had christened him in our conversations.
"Yes, Lochinvar," I answered. "Only
his name happens to bo Jacob. Ho is now
pulling a wire ropo in tho elevator which
carries mo to my oillco every morning."
"And doing It with tho enthusiasm

"With an eagerness and an cnorcv

"I know that he would," said Janot,

"And what did you dor" sho asked. I

Jacob, poring over a calf bound volume.
Ho looked o:i,b.irraed wheu he saw mo.
"Am 1 In tho wnyr" he nsliud.
"You're not likely to get much sleep at
this rate," I replied. "Do you stay up as
late as this very often?"
''Alniiict overy night," he nnswored,
"Do you mind!'"
'Not a bit," I said, "If your health will
stand It. Hut it is a pretty hard llfo, I
think, for one who has lived in tho open
air so much."
"Tho llfo In tho open air stored up just
tho sort of ltallty I need for this sort of
thing," said Jacob.
"You aro striking an average, thon?"
"Trying tostrlkoonobetwoon tho sound
mind and tho sound body."
"Don't take llfo so seriously," said I.
"Thero Isn't anything nioro sorlous to
mo," sold Jacob, and I could not answor
him, I got my paper and started homo.
Ho was leaving tho building at tho same
tlmo, and wo walked a few squares to
gether. "Havo you any frlonds in Now York
yet?" I asked. Jacob had never confldod
any of the facts of his dally llfo to mo.
"I havo soino relatives hero," he said.
"They are rich pooplo, though, mothor
tolls mo. Sho hnsn't hoard from thorn iu
20 years. I may go to beo them some day,
hut not so long as I'm only an ulovntor
boy."
"Perhaps If you saw them thoy could
help you to bo something bettor, though
there is no disgrace In any kind of honest
labor," I hastened to add.
"If I can help myself, sir," said Jacob,
"I think I would rather do It."
I did not bollovo that there wns any
cant ubout Jacob. I rather liked his dec
laration of independence, and on the im
pulse of tho moment I mado him a propo
sition. "Ono of my junior clerks loaves tomor
row. Would you llko tho place?"
"It's very kind of you," said Jacob.
"Am I fitted for It?"
"You don't know so muoh law as some
of them perhaps," I answered, "but possi
bly your enthusiasm for your work will
atone for that. Plaoos of tho kind usually
pay only In nxporlenco, but wo will make
tho pay tho same as that you aro receiving
now, nnd perhaps thero will booxtra work
by which you enu earn it."
I left him nt tho corner half dreaming,
boo much absorbed to say, "I thank you."
Jacob servod three years in my oillco.
Ily that time ha was prepared to poss a
very creditable examination for admission
to tho bar. I had reported his progress to
Janet from time to tlmo and had received
her thanks for my consideration, but it
was not on her account now that I was
encouraging Jacob. He earned all tho
consideration ho received. He had had
only two brief vaeations to visit hie homo,
and tho remainder of tho tlmo ho had de
voted unremittingly to study and to tho
work whioh I had glvon him. He could
do tho work of any two or three of tho
clerks In tho oillco, or In tho building, for
that matter. Tho president of a big rail
road with which I had some business from
tlmo to tlmo noted Jacob's energy ami
oommontod on It ono day.
"Send him to mo when ho is ready to
practice," said ho. "I want snch a man
in my oillco. In fact, I want many such
men."
So It happened that whon Jacob was
ready to enter tho profession a position in
tho legal department of this railroad, with
A good salary nnd a flno opportunity for
Improvement, was open to him. And so
ho loft mo with regret, I think, on both
sides.
Tho term of his oxporlenoo in Now York
had dono him a world of good. Ills mental
equipment had been Improved, of course,
but his dress and manner had lmprovod
no less. All of tho buoolto air had disap
peared. Ho was not extravagant In any
thing. Ho had no money with which to
bo extravagant, for tho surplus of his llt
tlo wages had boon sont regularly to his
mother. Hut ho found that ho could buy
clothing of modern cut in Now York quite
as cheap as lie could purchase tho old
style garments of his boyhood In tho little
town from which ho had como, and oc
casionally ho found an extra job of work,
which ho did In hours stolon from sleep,
which gave him tho money to clotho hlra
solf more becomingly than ho had dono at
tho tlmo when I llrst saw him.
On Thankpglvint? ovening, tho anniver
sary of our first enoountcr, I met him near
my homo on Madison avenuo. Ho was as
handsome nnd as nice looking n man as I
would meet on that fashionable thorough
fare. I say '"nice looking" hecauso his
appearance was not fashionablo. Ho was
well dressed, hut In. an unnsMjiiilnif way.
What Shall We Do.
A serious and dangerous disease prevails
in this country, dangerous because so decep
tive. It comes on so slowly yet suiely that it
is often firmly seated before we are aware of it.
The name of this disease which may be
divided into three distinct stages is, First,
Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the back,
rheumatism, lumbago, frequent desire to
urinate often willi a burning sensation, the
flow of urine being copious or scant with
strong odor.
If allowed to advance, this reaches the
Second stage, or Bladder trouble, with heavy
pain in the abdomen low down between the
navel and llie water passaye, increasing de
sire to urinate, with scalding sensation in
passing, tniall quantities being passed willi
difficulty, sometimes necessary to draw it
witli instruments. If uric acid or gravel has
formed, it will prove dangerous if neglected.
The Third stare is Bright's Disease.
There is comfort in knowing that Dr.
Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder
specialis', has discovered a Remedy famous
for its marvelous cures of the most distressing
cases and known as Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root. It is sold by all druggists.
As a proof of the wonderful virtues of this
great discovery, Swamp-Root, a sample bottle
and book of valuable information will be sent
absolutely free by mall on application to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Ilingliamton, N. Y. When
writing kindly mention that you read this
liberal offer in the Shenandoah IJiaALD.

to certify that I was a terrible sufferer from
Yellow Jaundice for over six months, and
was treated by some of the best physicians iu
our city and all to no avail. Dr. Bell, our
druggist, recommended Electric Bitters ; and
after taking two bottles, I was entirely cured.
I now take great pleasure in recommending
them to any person suffering fron this terrible
malady. I am gratefully yours, M. A,

THE DEAN AND HIS WIFE.
A Uttlc Sorprlne For lloomfnl ol
IllnrkKiinriln.
Tho following wns told by Ixird do Hos:
In tho early pnrt of tho century Vauxhnll
wns tho resort of many respectnmo per
sons, ospeolnlly of those who came up from
tho country to sco London sluhts. During
ono season it wns lnfostcd by n baud of
roughs, who mado it their occupation to
Insult nnd inolost tho most quiet, dooent
pooplo, ospoolully nny whom they guessed
to bo country visitors. They bocomo such
a nuisance that sovernl men about town,
nmong whom wero Lord Alvanloy and
Keppel Craven, laid a plot to get rid of
thorn.
They hlrod Mendoza, tho famous prize
fighter, and dressed him up as a dean,
with a shovel hat (Hut apron. Another
prizefighter, a short man, was dressed as a
middle aged huly and passed as tho (lean's
wlfo, and ono evening thoy wero seuted at
Vauxhall In a conspicuous position to
watch tho fireworks. It was not long bo
foro tho old fashioned, countrlflod pair at
Iraotod tho attontlon of tho gung, who as
sailed them with every kind of coarso rail
lery and Insult, all of which thoy boro
vory meokly.
At length ono of tho porsooutors, grow
ing bolder by Impunity, stopped up to tho
dean nnd sipilrtod nn orango Into his eye.
On this tho dean, rising, said In a mock,
qulot tone, "Really, gontlonion, I havo
borno a great doal, but I must put n stop
to this. " With that his hat wont ono way
and his coat anothor, nnd, followed by his
"wlfo," ho sprang into tho mlddlo of the
party, hitting out In all directions. Fillod
with astonishment nnd terror, some Hod
and somo tried to show light, but tho han
dling thoy got from tho prizefighters was
too severe for tho fracas to last long.
All the time Lord Alvahloy and his
friends, who wero in tho boxes, wore call
ing out In delight: "Go It, Mr. Doanl
Gle It 'om, Mrs. Dean!" An effectual
stoo wns thus nut to tho annoyance Lord
du Hos, who was present, wus a boy nt
Westminster, and somo of tho Lennoxes
had given him a hint that if ho went to
Vauxhall that evening ho would soo some
fun. London Spectator.
