Several of their set, they argued, who had suddenly found themselves compelled to earn their own livirig had followed this course, and "the set" resented innova tions. Moreover, the Ainsworth con servatories had been famous. Precisely because everybody had suggested a florist's shop Evan Ains worth decided against it. It was all very well nt first, he argued, when your shop is a novelty and people bought flowers in the name of sweet charity, but he knew little about flow ers, not enougtt to maue tue business an independent success. On the other hand, his amateur photographs had gained distinction at various exhibi tions. Very sensibly he decided to de velop this talent, and so he secured a position as operator in an obscure gal lery, where he could gain experience with skylight work. Two months later Evan Ainsworth was practically for gotten by his old associates. For this Evan was thankful, for the dark days following his father's death had been made more gloomy by the re peated visits of self constituted ad visers, who failed to appreciate the fact that there are some men who would rather earn less money inde pendently than be dependent upon bor rowed capital for the success ef a hazardous venture. It cut him a little at first as one by one his friends drop ped off, but in the end he regretted only Evelyn Hope, with whom there had been an "understanding" at the time of the crash. Armstrong Hope, her father, had been one of the first to suggest the florist shop, and when Evan had ex plained his view of the matter and had declined the proffered aid Mr. Hope had stormed through the house, declaring that Evan was a headstrong youngster and that the rising genera tion w:is going to the dogs. Then he had promptly exiled Evelyn to Europe in care of an elderly aunt. "Now, you take care of Evelyn," he had said to her when the steamer was I RED FRONT Court Blouse Block, Oregon Cih, Ore.

A letter which Evan had sent to her had been returned unopened, with a curt note from Armstrong nope inti mating that he desired all further communication between Ainsworth and the Hope family to cease absolutely and assuring Evan that he had taken Bteps to see that this desire would be carried out Evan, instead f assuming a mourn ful air, went industriously to work and within two years so advanced him self in his profession that he was eu gaged as chief operator In the most fashionable establishment . In town, j Two years of hard study, supplement ed by none too luxurious living the first year, had wrought marvelous cuangra lu his appearance, aud none who com mented on the excellence of his photo graphs realized that the artist was a man who at one time had been wel comed to thei homes. He was too proud to remind his old associates of his existence, nnd they in turn had quite forgotten him. As chief operator he was supposed to pxerclse general supervision over the work, and one afternoon, going into the dark room, he found n young de veloper bending over some plates. "Mr. Ainsworth," he called, "I wish you would look nt this negative. Mr. Jackson took it while you were at lunch, and it doesn't seem to be quite right. He only took two, and the first one was lost entirely through fog." Ainsworth carelessly lifted the plate and held it up to the ruby light. Then he gave n start, for there was Eve lyn's face, a tritle wistful, but still the face of the woman he loved dearer than his life, rulling himself togeth er, he handed it back to the operator with a careless remark, but let the "l.is.s .l!p fi;a h's hnn.i before the other could grasp it. "My fault," he said In answer to the operator's pro fuse apology. "The wet film slipped out of my hands. Send down stairs "Have by a surgeon Shy lock on thy charge to stop his wounds lest he do bleed to death." We know that we may bleed to death. Knowing that, we know that if the loss of blood means death, the gain of blood must mean life. But blood vmust have quality as well as quantity ; it must be pure as well as plentiful. When the blood is diseased it must be made pure' before being made plentiful. To do this we must go back of the blood to the stomach. Blood is made from food properly digested and assimilated. When digestion is incomplete and assimilation is imperfect the blood at once deteriorates and the nutrition of the body is reduced. In general therefore, under such conditions, there is a loss of flesh showing the loss of nutrition and the deterioration of the blood which is the vehicle of the body's nourishment. People talk sometimes of blood-making medicines. But no medicine can make blood. Blood is made from food digested and converted into nutrition. The medicine which increases the blood supply of the body must do it by curing the diseases of the stomach and its allied organs of digestion and nutrition, so that the obstacles to the perfect nutrition of the body may be entirely removed. When this is done the nutritive elements of the food eaten are perfectly extracted and in the form of blood feed the weakened organs and wasted tissues of the body. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It removes the causes of corrupt and poisoned blood, so making the blood pure. It increases the supply of nutrition received from food, so making the blood plentiful. "Golden Medical Discovery cures scrofula, eczema, tetter, salt-rheum, boils, eruptions, pimples, rheumatism, debility and other diseases which have their origin in impure or diseased blood. Mr. Chas. Hunwict, of Lenox, Macomb Co., Mich., writes: I have never felt better in my life than I do now. I have taken Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery right along. I can now walk quite well with a cane and hope to throw even that away before long, and as I have had to use crutcnes lor nearly two years, I think I am doing line. 1 do not cough now and I can sleep like a school boy. I think I will have to change my mind about 'patent medicines,' as I never had much faith in them until your mediciue9 cured me. You must know that I have been treated in two hospitals and by three other doctors besides, and received no benefit ; so I think your medicine is the only medicine for me.' I will forever thank you for advising me to take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery," writes Mrs. Jas. Murphy, of Fonda, Pocahontas Co., Iowa. "It has cured me of chronic scrofula of twelve years' stand ing. I had doctored for the trouble until I was completely discouraged. I also had chronic diarrhea for twelve years. I am in good ucuku now ueiier man i ever was in my life, owing to Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. I took several bottles of t'ue ' Discovery ' before I stopped." The blood is the sole coloring matter which nature uses to produce the wonderful tints which color the skin and give beauty to the complexion. When the blood is impure or diseased the effect is generally marked by eruptions which disfigure the skin. The use of " Golden Medical Discovery " will effect the removal of disfiguring eruptions by re moving their cause and will restore the beautiful complexion which is every woman's birthright. "I was troubled with eczema from the crown of my head to the, soles of my feet," writes Mrs. Ella Quick, of Cass City, Tuscola Co., Mich. "Could not walk at times nor wear my shoes. Thought there was no help for me at least the doctor said there was none. I went to see friends at Christmas time aud there heard of the good that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery had done for them, and was advised to try it at once, for fear that I might neglect it my friend sent to the village and got a bottle and made me promise that I would take it. I had been getting worse all the time. I took thirteen bottles of the ' Golden Med ical Discovery and ten vials of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pel lets, and used the 'All -Healing Salve,' which made a complete cure." 1 f- rfwifk UL...L!

Two davs later Evelyn nope again ascended to the operating room and noted with satisfaction that the opera tor was not the one she had seen on her first visit. As he turned to re ceive her she gave a cry of surprise. "Evan!" she gasped. "Is it really you?" Then impulsively she went for- vard, both hands outstretched. "I've a confession to make," he said as he looked Into the tender eyes, shy ly upturned to his. "I smashed your last picture on purpose so that you would have to come down and pose again to me. She gave a happy laugh. "Then you still care?" she asked earnestly. "Care1." ho repented. "I'd have smashed the skylight if it had beeu necessary. Can't you realize that I've been hungry fr n sight of your face for the last two years?" "Well," she returned, with a tiny pout, "you might at least have writ ten." "Dut I did," he assured her. "I wrote, and your father sent back the letter, warning me that any letter sent to Europe would not reach you. In spite of that I wrote half a dozen times, but received no word in reply." "What did you say?" she Inquired half curiously, half bashfully. "I can't tell you here," he answered. "iQu're b,ejrc ta give me a negative." She smiled roguishly. "Take two plates," she suggested, and as he look ed a little dazed she placed her hands on his shoulders. "You stupid boy," she finished, "don't you realize that two negatives make an affirmative?" "And you will marry me?" he asked incredulously. "I refused two dukes and a count." This with seeming irrelevance. "To marry a photographer's assist ant?" She stood on tiptoe till their lips met. "To marry the man I love," she corrected. DR. KING'S try NEW DISCOVERY FOR THAT COLD. TAKE NO SUBSTITUTE.

They commenced the series investi gation of the specific Nov, 15, 1900. They interviewed scores of the cured and tried it out on its merits by putting over three dozen cases on the treatmen and watching them. They also got phy sicians to name chronic, incurable cases, and administered it with the physicians for judges. Up to Aug. 25, eighty-seven per ceut of the test caees were either wed or progressing favorably. There being but thirteen p?r cent of failures, the parties were satisfied and closed the transaction.
