of the cottage.
"Looks as big as the Madison Siunr

how she'd show off If she was all
lighted up'"
Then, getting a new angle, he per
ceived four yellow rectangles In an
upper story. They were windows
which faced the rear.

eyeglasses. He seemed to bo reading.
Then another shadow lllttcd across the
shade, a slighter, more graceful shape,
evidently a woman's.
"Nothing ghostly about that," re
marked the Cherub. "Am I in n board
ing house or what'"
Finding a lawn seat, ho swung1 it
around, lighted a fresh cigar and
leaned back to make a comfortable
survey and rollect upon his discovery
at leisure. Instead of one there wore
two persons for whom he could not
account. Perhaps there were more
four, live, six, a dozen. Why not?
Itoimi was not lacking. True, he had
been given to understand, both by Bul
kins and by Timmins, that ho had
bought a house tenanted only by serv
ants, lint persons who road books
in the library, dropped lace handker
chiefs and occupied rooms In the main
portion of the house could uot bo
Mrvniits.
The Cherub wondered and speculat
ed and made wild guesses as to the
Identity of the persons In those upper
rooms. Having no starting point, no
clew to tollow, he arrived nowhere.
"(Jive it up," lie said. "Guess I'll
go to hod."
Why lie should rise at the unearthly
hour of (i. however, he explained i!i
quite a different way. Ho accused a
few twittering sparrows of waking

rows which drove him out to make a
circuit of the grounds. Quito inci
dentally ho glnnced up at the win
dows he had watched the night before.
The closed shutters revealed nothing.
Finding a bench under a tree, ho sat
down and begun to wonder how lung
it would 1)0 bofyro ho might call for
his breakfast without seeming unsea
sonable. He was aroused by a cruncli
iruuih of footsteps on the gravel.
.Some one was walking dowii one of
the intersecting paths.
During the brief instant that ho
stared ho had a glimpse of a slender,
big eyed young woman whoso hair
hung In a thick, dark braid over one
Khouldor. Across the hollow of her
left arm was a sheaf of freshly ciit
llowors. In her right hand a pair of
shears. And then she saw him.
"Oh!"
Down fell the roses. The shears
clattered on the stones.
By tho time he could scramble to his
foot sho had gathered up her llo.wors
and the shears. Sho stood quite still,
eying him with apprehensive expecta
tion. "KhV" said tho Cherub.
"I I said nothing." replied tho young
woman.
"Iiut you squealed, didn't youV"
"Possibly,"
"Well, I was scared out of a year's
growth. Next time you fool like squeal
ing you might send mo word, so I can
braco myself. Live here, do you?"
"Why -cr that Is not exactly."

"Breakfast ready yet?"
"Breakfast, sir? lt',s rather oaily.

"IJarly! It's tho middle of the fore
noon, (in stir things up in the kitch
en." As Kppings departed tho hall clock
chimed 7. The Cherub grinned. He
had not breakfasted at 7 for years, in
les than an hour, tlimnjli, breakfast
was an accomplished fact, and Mr.
Dovino, now soothed by one of Ills
black cigars, set out for a more ex
tended tour of the grounds. He dis
covered the path leading to the sound
and had spent some time on the porch
of the boathouso watching the steam
ers and coasting vessels crawl pant
when Tinimlns came down, evidenily
In search of him.
"Maybe I didn't mention last night,
sir," began Tlnunlii suavely, "any
thing about the Howlugtons?"
"I guess you didn't, Timmins."
"The fact is, sir, tlioy haven't gone."
"Haven't gone! Why, where are
they?"
"Back at the house, sir. It's all on
account of tho old lady, sir, Mr. Hew
ington's sister, who lias took so bad
she couldn't lie moved. Perhaps 1" -
"It's all right. There's Mr. Ilewing
ton and his sick sister, Is there? That
all?"
"And the Countess Voccbl, sir."
"Tho which?" Mr. Devine grabbed
tho cigar from between his teetli and
turned quickly on Tiuiiuins.
".The Countess Vecclii, sir, as stayed
to look after tho aunt. The countess is
the married daughter, sir. The count's
been dead two years, sir, and" beic
Timmins coughed apologetically t.e
hind his hand "the Ilewiugtons wa'n't
precisely sorry to lose him."
"Not a bowling siuces, eh?"
"Hardly, sir. Tho countess left him
two hours after tho wedding."
"She must bo a hummer," observed
tho Cherub, and then rollectively .
"Countesses are hardly in my line
Guess you can hook up pretty soon
and drive mo back to the station. 1
don't want to disturb the old lady."
"Lord, sir, you won't see any of
them! No sooner did they hear you
were coming than they moved into the
top floor of the east wing, and there
they've shut themselves tip like the
house was quarantined. Besides, sir.
there isn't another express you could
get to the city until tho lOSM tonight."
"Oh, well, there's plenty of time
then! Perhaps you'll be able to dig up
some more reports before night."
Mr. Dovino was thinking of tho
young person lie had seen in the gar
don. It didn't matter who she was. of
course, but it might be interesting to
know.
Tho day passed, however, without
further discoveries, although at any
moment the Cherub was prepared to
ilnd himself confronted either by Mr.
Ilewlngtou or tho countess or the
young woman of tho roses or some
wholly unknown person.
lie had seated himself for another
solitary and stately meal when a bell
rang somewhere, and Kppings excused
himself to answer it. Then ensued out
In the reception hall a whispered con
versation, part of which Mr. Devine
could hardly avoid hearing, although
ho was certain It was not Intended for
his ears.
"Is' that that dreadful man in
there?" asked a voice.
Kppings reappeared to announce im
pressively, "Tho Couutess Vecchl, sir."
"Oh, tho devil!" Mr. Dovino grab
bod his napkin end from between tho
second and third buttons of his waist
coat and dropped It across his left
knee. Ho had a vague notion that all
countesses wore large, stout women,
who wore crowns of some sort, ermine
trimmed robes and a multitude or
rings.
Through the doorway stepped the
big 'eyed, slender young person whom
ho had seen before breakfast in the
garden. Sho wore neither crown nor
ermine robes. Tho braid of dark hair
had been transformed into a simple
but effective Betting for tho long oval
of her face.
"Hello! You?" he exclaimed. "Say.
honest, you aren't tho couutess, ate
you?"
Sho bowed an admission of tho fact,
evidently much disconcerted by this
greeting.
"Well, I'll bo hanged!" continued
Mr. Devine. "Say, have u seat, won't
you?"
Sho walked resolutely to the oppo
site end of tho table from Mr. Dovino
and nervously clasped and unclasped
her lingers its sho spoke.
"My father wishes me to say that
the serious condition of my aunt makes
It Impossible for us to leave the house
nt present. Just as soon us sho Im
proves wo will go away."
"Oh, that's all right! Stay us long
as yon like."
"Hut wo don't want to Btay at all.
My father wishes you to understand
that. It it is very painful for him
to accept n favor, even toleration, from
you. He charged mo not to apologize.
liowofw, :f (he circumstances are be
yond our control. 1 nin not apologis
ing, you see, only explaining."
"Oh, you're doing line!" said Mr.
Dovino nssurlngly. "Anything else tho
old gentleman wants me to under
stand?" "No; 1 think that Is all, except that
during vniir stay," continued the count-
ess, " . shall keep to our rooms."
"Oh, you needn't do that!" protest
ed Mr. Devluc.
"Hut It is my father's desire," add
ed tho countess. "And wo shall take
all our meals there."
"Looks as If 1 didn't stand very well
with your father," commented Mr. Do
vino. "Is there anything special?"
"He thinks that you nro rather that
Is. that you you" A sudden rush of
color came into the olive shaded cheeks
of the countess, and her brown eyes
began to study the rug pattern. Mr.
Dovino suddenly decided that some
times countesses were .nice to look at.
"Yes," he said encouragingly, "rathet
what?"
"Well, rather wild and wicked and
reckless, you know, lie was afraid
that you might become or Intoxicat
ed." A cherubic expression spread ovei
the pink and white face of Mr. Devine
"Thinks I'm a sort of a cross between
n cowboy and a pirate, eh? Seems to
know all about mo too!"
"Ho has read about you In the news
papers," ventured the countess, with
a shy, half curious glance which foi
an Instant met the calm, level gaze ol
Mr. Devlne's blue eyes.
"Oh!" The Cherub spoke as one
who has seen a light. "Somethinp
about how 1 spent half a million in
Paris one week, or was it a million?"
"Half a million, the paper said. Bui
you won it all back at Monte Carlr
tho next week, didn't you? Wo read
about tho big poker game, too the
one that started in Liverpool and end
ed off Sandy Hook."
"That was ii corker!"
"And the champagne supper you
gave to forty chorus girls."
"Yes, I believe there were forty
You have certainly kept well posted."
"I I suppose that I should explain,'
she began. "Papa, you see, is inter
osted In sociology, tho study of socia
conditions and all that. Ho reads
books about It and gathers statistics
He is writing a pamphlet on the sub
ject."
Mr. Dovino nodded uncomprehend
iugly.
"Ho' has been particularly luterestec
in In your career. In fact, he hat
made quWo a study of it. Ho gets
everything that is printed about yoi
from a newspaper clipping "bureau
and lie has the pieces pasted in a blf.
scrapbook."
"Must make lively reading."
"Oh, it does. Papa says that yoi
are a typical product of tho present
commercial ago.
"Well, that's nice of him. I've beei
called worse names."
"Of course" hero the countess nerv
ed herself to look sternly at the sinil
Ing Mr. Dovino "ho disapproves verj
strongly of you. He says it Isn't slni
ply that you spend so much monej
foolishly, but that you set such a bai
example to other young men who can
not afford perhaps to follow It. Ot
course I know that tho newspapers of
ten exaggerate," admitted the count
ess. "Perhaps they have about you."
"Think so? Why?"
The Countess Vecclii gazed at the
clear skinned, chubby face of Mr. Do
vine.
"Well, you don't look at nil as I had
expected."
"Horns and hoofs not in evidence?'
chuckled the Cherub.
"You know what I mean," protested
tho countess. "One can usually recog
nlzo the marks of of dissipation."
"Oh. you can't always tell by tin
looks!"
"No, you cannot," she said decidedly
"and papa Is quite certain that you an
an Improper person."
"Too wicked for you to cat dinuei
with, am I?"
"Papa thinks so."
"And ho has read tho newspapers
oh? All right. But It's dull business

of forty chorus girls." She delivered
this parting shot over her shoulder.
But Mr. Dovino had uot seen the
last of tho couutess for that night. In
a moment she camu back.
"I I hope 1 did not say too much,"
she began, glancing timidly at him.
"ou aro uot offended, aro you?"

ho had been shaking n dnb nt her.
"Not a word from mo. Why, I
would act as If wo wore the boot ot
friends,"
"Papa, you know, is merely shocked
and Indignant at the wild things you
do. Ho thinks that you shoulif Ik? re

Hint perhaps It Is all owing to the In
lluences which surround yotl your
companions, you know, and tho men
you meet in business. They nro not
very nice men, are they?"
"Most of them manage 'to keep out
of jail."
"Yes, of course. But, toll mo, don't
they drink heavily nnd gamble and
find do other things which they
shouldn't?"
"Well, there nro a good many high
rollers in our bunch."
"And they lead you on to do as they
do, don't they? And there Isn't any
one to tell you that you nro worthy of
better things? I know Itl But if you
could be brought Info contact with a
different class, If you could mingle
with persons in tho higher grades of
society, I am sure you would wish to
live differently."
"Think 1 ought to go In for society,
do you?" Tho Cherub's beaming face
presented a picture of complacent In
terest. "Well, in n way. Of course you
would find It diilicult to step at once
Into the best society, but you could
make n beginning."
"I could work up, eh?"
"It would bo slow, there Is so much
reserve about our best families. In
fact, there are certain circles which
you would probably find it impossible
to enter."
"Couldn't break In with an ax. I sup
pose?" The countess smiled. "You have
such an odd way of putting things. It
wouldn't be necessary for you to en
ter tho most exclusive sots, but there
are plenty of nice people that you
could meet that is, If you wanted to
change your associates."
"You think It would bo a good
scheme, do you?"
"Oh, splendid! You'll not mind my
speaking to you nbout It, will you?
You see, I have wanted for a long
time to do something of tho kind for
some one. Our bishop has urged me
to go into home missionary work. I
hnvo tried, but tho villagers here are
so unresponsive that I haven't had
much success."
"Well, you can try any kind of re
form on me that you like."
"Oh, the bishop will bo delighted
-when I tell him!"
"It's what you might call a stroke
of luck for both of us, isn't It?" queried
the Cherub. "But Just how are you
going to tackle the job?"
"I'm sure I don't know." Perplexi
ty dwelt in the brown eyes for an in
stant. "It is my idea, you know, that
personal influence and example count
for a good deal. If I could only talk
to you about your reckless habits"
"Well, why not? There'll bo all day
tomorrow."
"But probably I shall not see you
again. Papa doesn't expect me to."
'Oh, say, you're not going to stay
shut up in your rooms all day, nro
you?"
"F.xcept for a little walk In tho gar
den right after breakfast."
"About 1) o'clock, eh? I'll be there."
"No, no, you mustn't! That Is, you
mustn't plan to bo there. Of course if
it should bo purely by nccldent"
"I'll see to that part of it, all right
You'll bo in tho garden, will you?"
The couutess hesitated. Then she
half whispered, "Possibly," gave him
an elusive glance nnd lied as If to es

"Our railroad Is tho pioneer In the

"Bpfore wo used that method wo had

Several ot the lawyers nt ouce ask

"The employment ot goats for this

run upon an incline to the cars and
tho sheep dash eagerly after them.
Then we separate the goats from the
sheep."
"You say you employ the goat's.

SELLS HAIR TO BUY FOOD.

Pittsburg, l'a. One of the greatest
sacrifices a woman can make was
made by Mrs. Hessle Anderson, a
young widow, who, to save her three
children from hunger, parted with her
hair. The particular mass of hair that
was surrendered up to tho hairdress

of hair seen In this city, nnd It

Tho most surprised person In Pitts

tho hair would fetch, was tho
proprietor of tho store. When the

about parting with tho meshes that,
unloosened, fell to tho floor, it did not
tako long to roach a price.
When the woman reached her homo
with lood for the children and money

Specks Before
The Eyes.
In no part of the body are tho effects of
constipation more quickly noticed than in
the condition of the eyes. When you see
a yellowish tinge in the whites of the eyes
it shows that the poisonous bile pervades
the whole system ; but it is tiie specks and
flitting objects in the vision itself that are
even more quickly apparent. Thousands
of people "see things"; their vision is
blurred, floating specks and spots uhich
seem almost real pass before the eyes.
Such conditions can always be traced to a
torpid liver and a conjested condition of
the bowels. The only thing to do is to
take Smith's Pineapple and liuiternut Pills,
which cure coniopation as if by magic.
They regulate the functions of the liver,
remove the bilious elements from the cir
culation and strengthen the nerves. If
your eyes are clouded, if you have specks
and floating objects before your vision,
use Smith's Pineapple and Butternut Pills
and get the poisonous elements out of
your blood. Physicians use and recom
mend. They furm no habit. You should
always keep them on hand. These little
Vegetable Pills will ward off many ills.
