I was one of a very Jovial party at ths hun tine lodfro of my cousin. Mr. Parrel, whose ireuevous aul social d!a position was well known In the neigh borhood of "Hollow Glen." 11 was In Septi'mber; ths shooting season hail Jnst st In. ami tlio entire party, with a slnjle ext-aptlou, uud that myself, was coniKsel of Irish cutle uieo devoted lo tho snn. Among those assembled was Cnpt. Conau, who, I learned during the con versation of tho evening, was about leaving in a few days to Jolu his wife and daughter, then at Castlerock. Unrestrained by tbe society of the fair sex, we enjoyed ourselves exceed ingly, and Indulged rather freely In tho contents of our host's wluc cellar. The last thing I remember of that night Is my making an effort to respond to "our visitor." The next I knew was, when aroused by the cheery voice of Jemmy O'Neill, my cousin's man-of -all-work, I found myself on the sofa In the smoking-room, whither I had been car ried some hours before. "Here's a letter for ye, sir," said Jemmy. "All right," I replied, reaching my band for it lie gave -me the letter, then left the room. I felt I must have slept a long time, as tho sun was streaming In at tbe windows; and, as the light seemed to aggravate my headache, I merely glanced at the superscription, and, lay ing the letter on a chair, proceeded to draw down tbe blind. My next thought was to take a bath; but, seeing the let ter as I turned from the window, I con cluded I would read It first I sank Into a chair and tore It open, throwing the envelope on tbe table. What was my surprise on seeing It begin: "My Beloved Husband " The next Instant CapL Conan walked In and passed me In the direction of the fireplace. As he did so, his eye caught the letter. "Too miserable, ill-bred puppy V he exclaimed. "How dare you have the Impudence to open my letters?" snatch ing It rudely from my hand as be spoke. Smarting under his Insulting words. I sprang up and replied: In Justice to myself, I deny having opened your letter Intentionally. Fur ther," continued I, trembling with pas sion, "yem prove yourself Ill-bred and no gentleman by your vile language." "What!" he screamed; "no gentle man, do you say 7" Retract Instantly, sir! Refuse at your peril."' and be ad vanced with uplifted arm. I never retract," cried I; "but I re peatno gentleman would speak as you do." "I say you shall, though, else I'll choke the life out of you!" springing toward me ss he spoke. How tliis would have terminated I know not, for at this moment Mr. Par rel rushed into the room In time to catch him ere he reached me. "Hold. CapL Conan!" cried Mr. Kar rcl, "Mr. Morton is here as my guest, and as such I consider It my duty to protect him from violence." The captain seemed to see the Justice of this observation, but his fury was not abated. Turning to my cousin, he said: "Perhaps you will also conalder It your duty to teach him some manners. He bad the impudence to open a letter addressed to me, and Instead of offer ing an npo'osy, added to bis misbe havior by saying I was no gentleman. Here Is the envelope," taking It from tbe table, "plainly addressed to me, and I caught him in tbe act of reading Its contents." "However, that may be," replied my cousin, "as a relative and friend of mine, I demand that you treat him as a gentleman." "Out of respect to you and as your relative, be shall be treated as a gentle man," replied the cuptnin, hotly. "So I will begin by dcmnudlng an apology from bim for opening my letter; also for saying I was no gentleman, and that he shall retract that remark." "Regarding the letter," said I, "I will say I opened It by mistake for my own. Regarding tbe remark, I shall not re tract It, and repeat no gentleman would nse your language, and not apol ogize for so doing. It Is from you an apology Is due, and, if given, will be accepted." "Enough," said he. "Mr. Farrel soys you are a gentleman. I will soon prove him either right or wrong, by treating you as one. You will hear from me during the day," and he strode from tbe bouse without another word. "A duel without doubt," said my cousin; "nothing less will satisfy bim. How did this all happen?" I then told my cousin now tbe mis take bad taken place. I left my letter on the chair and bad taken up tbe cap tain's, which Jemmy bad left there for bim, ballevlng It to be my own. On learning what tbe captain had aid to me, be thought me very moder ate In my resentment of the Insult, and agreed with me that it was from the captain an apology was due. "The devil of It is," said be, "the cap tlan Is such a good shot be generally pops bis man every time." "Pops his man!" said I. "What do you mean?" "I mean that lie will challenge you to duel, nnd If you do not accept It I must, for I demanded that you be treat ed as a gentleman. But come," he con tinued, "and see what John has in the dining-room for us; for my part, I feel as though a dozen of port would not quench my thirst." While discussing our wine, a messen ger came with a note addressed to me. "From tho captain, I'll bet!" said roy cousin. "You must go It, my boy." I opened tbe seal and read as follows: "Horace Morton, Esq. Sir: Copt Conan bas selected me to arrange a meeting between you and him, that the affair of this morning may be honor ably settled. Have a friend, for you, to communicate with me during the day, Youra respectfully, "Robert Sinclair." "Sinclair, as I live!" said my cousin, when I showed him the note. "Just ss hot-headed as tho captain himself. What are you going to do, Horace V "Dor said I. "What can I do?" "Why, light or apologise." "Fight by all means, then," said I. "I'll never retract." "Who will act as your friend In this matter r "You, I hope. I know no one else I could ask." "Very well I shall proceed direct to Mr. Sinclair. Have you any instruc tions." "None whatever, except the request that you will arrange tbe affair to come off soon; to-morrow, It you possibly can." My cousin departed on hia misalon, while I, to calm the turbulent feelings of my mind, took a walk along tbe base of tbe mountain. My mind waa filled with the most gloomy forebodings, nor could I banish the thought of my la mentable fate coming to Ireland on a visit of pleasure, to be shot down by sn angry gentleman. I was roused from these gloomy re flections by the sound of a rapidly ap proaching carriage. I looked up and saw a horse and carriage come tearing at breakneck speed down the mountain road. "What reckless driving!" thought I. The only occupant of the carriage was a young and beautiful girl, clutch ing wildly the seat In front of her, not knowing the moment abe might be dashed down one of tbe chasms of tbe mountain side. The anguish depicted on ber sweet countenance went directly to my heart and I resolved to make an effort to save her. "Why should I hesitate," thought I, "when to-morrow I may fall a prey to the captain's bullet?" On came the frightened horse, and when within a tew yards of me I In stinctively felt a desire to get out of the way; but a glance at the fair being In danger nerved me to the effort and I threw myself with all my strength on the bridle-rein. But what was my strength compared with the force that "BBAVBKBl" SAID I, "WHY DOJt'T Hit resisted It? I was off my feet In an Instant but clung to the bridle with tbe tenacity of despair, for I well knew that to relinquish my bold would add to my danget, as the carriage would certainly crush me beneath it While I did not succeed in stopping tbe horse, I somewhat lessened Its Im petuosity, and was at length conscious of others coming to my assistance, and knew we were saved. I fainted from exhaustion. When I recovered I found myself at my cousin's house, my nerves badly shattered by the excitement and my body considerably bruised; but be yond this no material Injury bad been received. During tho evening my cousin In formed me that be bad seen Mr, Sin clair, and bad arranged a meeting be tween the captain and me the following morning at 8 o'clock ou the mountain, where we were to fight with pistols, at thirty paces apart, one shot only to be exchanged. "Under the circumstances, though," said be, "I am Justified In having the matter postponed until you are better prepared, and will see Mr. Sinclair to night for that purpose." "Not at all," cried I; "that would bo ascribed to cowardice. Anyhow, I will be all right to-morrow." The morrow came, and, true to our appointment Mr. Fsrrel and I proceed ed to the spot indicated on the moun tain. We were accompanied by a doc tor, In case bis services might be need ed, and Jemmy O'Neill, who drove tbe car. Though not yet 8 o'clock, we found tbe captain and Mr. Sinclair awaiting us. I noticed tbat tho captain was ex ceedingly pale, and regarded me closely as I approached. The preliminaries were soon over, and each of us took our stand, and had the pistol given us. No effort at concil iation was made. Tbe signal for firing was to be tbe discharge of a pistol by Mr. Sinclair. Mr. Farrel stood to my right, encour aging me, Mr. Sinclair about midway between us, to my left, while the cap tain and I, with arms elevated, and pistols presented at each other, awaited the signal. Bang went tbe pistol, and the next Insiant, though scarcely conscious of It myself, I discharged mine. As tbe smoke cleared away I beheld tbe captain standing Just as be was before I fired, and still holding bis pis tol presented at me. "Heavens!" said T, "what suspense la this? Wby don't he fire?" He did not do so, bowever, but, throwing hia pistol to Mr. Sinclair, ap proached me and extended bis band. "Mr. Morton," said be, "as It was I who challenged you to this meeting, I would say nothing to luterrupt the duel; but now that you have bad your shot, I will aay I could not . bring my self to shoot at the man who had dons tue such an Invaluable service as to save the life ot my beloved daughter." "Your daughter!" sold I, tu astonish ment. "Yes," said bo; "It was my daughter whose life you saved yesterday, so to day I withheld my firo on that account. Besides, I apologise for my rude words of yesterday morning, and admit I was wrong In using them. For preserving my beloved child, I thank you from my heart and she herself will thank yon In person ere long." As I write these Hues now, a fsmlltar form hangs over ray chair, and, looking up, I see tho same sweet countenance I beheld In the carriage on tbe eve of the duel on the mountain.-Chicago Journal. AN OLD VIRGINIA DOCTOR. lie Was Far la Advance of HI Tim In Medical Practice. Dr. Charlea Everett, a Virginia physi cian who died In 1S4S at tbe age of 81, must have been as louely In the prac tice ot his profession as "the voice of one crying In the wilderness." Doctors in those days had little faith in the healing power ot nature; tbelr pills were large, their doses nauseous and freely given. But Dr. Everett, whose practice extended over eight counties, anticipated the medical teaching ot the present day; he held that tbe physi cian's aim should be to help rather than coerce nature, and that medicines ought to be administered by the band of a miser. Thomas Jefferson and Dr. Everett were neighbors, but politics separated them in social life. A jocose remark, made by the ex-President In bis last Ill ness, pushed them still farther apart. Dr. Everett bad been In consultation with two otber doctors, and as they en tered the sick man's room Jefferson looked up and said, "Whenever I see three doctors together 1 generally look out for a turkey buzzard." Dr. Everett Immediately withdrew, highly offend ed. The Doctor was a keen observer of human nature, and often used tbe knowledge be had thus gained for the benefit of bis patients. Mr. E. C. Mead, in his "Historic Homes of Virginia," tells how the wise physician once, by bis acquaintance with the working ot a man's nature, roused a patient to con sciousness. A notorious old miser named Jones had fallen Into a stupor from which nothing had been able to rouse bim. Dr. Everett was called In, and made several futile efforts to rouse the old man. Seeing the county sheriff passing by, and recalling his patient'a ruling passion, be went out and hastily sum moned the officer to bis belp. It waa arranged tbat the sheriff should enter the sick man's chamber and drop bis saddle-bags on the floor, making them rattle as though tbey contained a quan tity of specie. "Mr. Sheriff," said the Doctor, as soon as the Jingle subsided, "how much money did you say you had collected for Mr. Jones here?" Before the official could reply, the old miser stirred, and in bis eager, weak voice cried, "How much did he say?" Dr. Everett must have found many patients who appreciated bis advanced medical opinions, for be left a fortune amounting to more than two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. He was also In advance of bis neighbors as to slavery. His will directed tbat bis many slaves should be freed, transport ed to Liberia and settled there In fur nished homes. One thousand dollars In money were also to be given to each family. In order to start them In their new life. His nephew, to whom tbe estate was left, becoming convinced tbat the slaves could find no suitable borne In Africa, took advantage of a codicil to the will, and settled them In Mercer County, Pennsylvania. No Anxiety About Herself. Among the guests at on old lady's re cent birthday party was ber son. As the old lady was celebrating ber centen nial and the son was eighty years old they made a remarkable couple. Tbe mother, In spite of ber years, was so strong and vigorous, both mentally and physically, Mint It seemed almost In credible that she bad rounded out a full century of existence, and ber son had been absent from ber for several years. The meeting between tbem ha'd been very affectionate, and they bad remain ed close to each otber during the son's stay. When the time came for bim to go he embraced bis mother, saying, wistfully, "Well, mother, I suppose this Is tbe last time I shall ever see you." The mother looked up quickly and as tonished. "Whydear, what's tbe mat ter?" she asked. "Don't you feel well?" Telephones to Hospital Beds. Telephones are to be placed In the wards of one of tho Paris hospitals within reach of the bed-ridden pa tients, so as to enable them to com municate with their friends outside. There will a!?o be an arrangement whereby tbe telephones may be switch ed on to a wire connected with a con cert ball, so that the performance may be enjoyed by tbe Invalids. Getting Kid of ttplinter. When a splinter has been driven deeply into the hand It can be extract ed by steam. Nearly fill a wide-mouthed bottle with very hot water, place the injured pnrt over the mouth and press it slightly. The suction thus produced will draw the flesh down, and in a minute or two tbe steam will extract splinter and Inflammation to gether. Trnant Laws Enforced. The absence of a child from school In Switzerland, unless In case of Illness, Is punishable by a flue, tbe amount of which Is daily Increased. If It Is sus pected that the child's Illness Is sham med a doctor Is sent by tbe school au thorities, and, when he Is convinced that the suspicion Is correct, the par ents have to pay bis fee. When a man Is noted as a bore, othei men try to get by bim without being seen. Mauds Sola. At a recent meeting ol ths council of the cltv ot Wallace.

Iraeets for Wool. Mr, E. H. (Harks, the well-known wool-buyer, was in Elgin recently look ing up the wool situation. Hie gen tinman reports a very favorable out look for prices this year and the market will now stand a price of 10 lo II cents a pound. Elgin is the shipping point (or Wallowa county and with the local output of that immediate vicinity tlieie will be a total ot aliout 1,000,000 pounds ot wool handled at that point this yesi.

I had womb trouble and such a bearing-down feeling ; also suffered with my back and limbs, pain in womb, inflitminatlon ot the bladder, piles and indigestion.

I waa so weak I could not do any thing. "I have now taken several bot tles of Lydla E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound, . and used three pack' ages of Sanative Wash, and can say I am perfectly cured.
