Brain Fooi. Much has been written,
in late years, about' the strengthening .in
fluence of fish, as an article of diet, upou
the human brain. Instigated by the plausi
ble theories on the subject, many persons
commenced eating fish regularly and have
kept trp the practice for a long time with
out having experienced the desired increase
of intenectnal capacity. And now comes
the New Orleans RepvMiem with this dis
couraging suggestion: "Unless a man
fcos brains, it is useless for him to eat brain
food.- It has never been claimed for fish
that It creates; - it- only strengthens the
brain.'' Some of our contemporaries, after
dufy considering the facts set forth by the
New Orleans paper, will probably discon
tinue the consumption of piscatorial nutri
ment and return to their first love, "corned
beei and cabbage,'? rw:-s.-j v t- Z

John Mallory wa3 returning from his
day's work, with his spade over his shoul
der, when he saw a woman sitting close to
the wall, weeping bitterly.
John hail a kind heart, and was easily
moved at the sight ot distress ; so he stop
ped and addressed tfle woman. ,
; - "You seem to be in trouble," that was
what he said. The mourner lifted her face,
and he saw that she was a young woman,
scarcely more than a girl, in fact. But
this did not lessen his pity at all ; possibly
it increased it, for his heart was humane
as well as kind.
-"Trouble? Ah, yes ; I have come such
a long way, and am so fatigued, so weary 1
I went to tlie people's doors, but no one
said anything, only, Go4 away! We
have no room for strangers. Go to the ho
tel, why do you not? I went to the hotel,
but the'landlord was worse than nil the
rest. Oh, how he frightened me, lie was
so fierce, so loud ! He called me a tramp,
a thief, because he found 1 had no money.
No money ; j-es, that was it ; and he bado
me go about my business ; but I have no
business, and so I came out iu the woods
to die alone."
'Cheer up, then if that is all," said.
John, "and come with me. My mother
will not drive you from her door, you may
be sure."
And John spoke truly, for his mother's
heart was like his own. She -only needed
to know that the girl was a stranger, and
in distress, to give her a cordial welcome.
'Take off your things, my dear, " said
she, removing the girl's shawl with her
own hands," sit here by the fire. How
you shiver, poor child ! . You are chilled to
the bone."
"You are so kind, so very kind !" said
the visitor, taking the rocker offered her ;
aud then John saw that she was not only
young, but singularly beautiful, though
thin and pale, as if from recent exposure.
You're out of health. You're not tit to
be abroad," said Mrs. 'Mallory. "How
your mother would feel to see you looking
so."
"Alas, I have no mother !" said the
girl, and her tears began to flow afresh.
-I will tell you my story."
"There; there, I'm sorry I said it, I'm
such a blunderer ! Nevermind the story
now, but after supper, when you are warm
and comfortable, yon shall tell luall about
yourself, that is, all that you wish to tell."
So, when the three had eaten their even
ing meal, and Mrs. Mallory had cleared
tne table and taken ont her knitting-work,
the young girl told her story.
She said her name was Estelle LeRoy ;
that her lather was a French refugee, but
that she herself was born in Canada. Some
years after he had left France, he had mar
ried a Canadian. After the death of her
mother her father came to Boston, hoping
to support himself and her by teaching his
own language ; but just as he found a situa
tion which promised to be permanent lie
became very ill ; in tact, the climate of this
country had never agreed with him and he
was always mourning for France. He was
sick a long time, and when he died, left her.
penniless.
Of her relatives in France she knew noth
ing; and although since her father's death
she had written more than once to her
mother's friends in Canada, no letters had
ever been received in return. She believed
she could find them, however, if she could
get there, and that was her aim now.
What she suffered since she left Boston,
she said she could never, never tell.
"It's all over now, my dear," said Mrs.
Mallory, "so try to forget it, and just try
to make yourself contented with us till you
are better able to travel than you are now."
For a whole week Estelle stayed with
the Mailorys, gaining in health and beauty
every day; and developing a careless light
ness of spirit greatly in contrast to her first
depression. -
That John was not insensible to her at
tractions may well be imagine!, and what
the consequences might have been I cannot
tell, if his heart had not been already occu
pied. That being the case, there was no
room for the poor stranger save in the way
of friendship, aud he showed hi friend
ship by -bringing Mary, his betrothed, to
sec her. Curious it was, to see the two to
gether Mary, the. staid New England
girl, with her rosy cheeks, her calm, blue
eyes, and yellow hair ; her plain dress and
steady northern tongue; and Estelle, with
her olive skin, her hair and eyes as dark
as night, her fanciful, idiomatic sphee:hand
her airy figure, which gave grace to even
the worn garments which clothed it. It
was the brownthrush and the c-tnary bird
sitting side by side on an appletree bough.
Still they got on well together, these two
and kissed each other as they parted. But
when Estelle parted from Mrs. Mallory
she hung ou lier neck as if it had been bcr
own dear mother she was leaving.
John saw her safely on bcr journey, and
when he took her hand to say farewell ho
left in it a smalt purse containing a sum
sufficient tor her expenses.
"I shall not forget you, never, never, no
not till my dying day does come,-" said Es
telle, with the tears starting from her eyes.
"The good God bless you for your kindness
to th ejioor stranger you and your mother
and the pretty Marie." ; - s .
In a few weeks tlie" Mailorys received a
letter from Estelle, saying that she had
reached her journey '9 end and was among
her friends. It was the only one they ever
received lroro her.
In the course of time John and Mary
were married, and settled down on the
Mallory farm, and there- lor the present
we will leave them.
One day a handsome traveliug carraiage
drew up bofore the door ot a hotel in a
quiet New England village. It was an
event iu the history of that hotel long to
be remembered, for never had such an es
tablishment been seen there .before. Out
came the two hostlers, out came the stable
boys, Out came the bar-keeper, and lastly
out came the landlord himself.
A gentleman alighted from the carriage
and was followed by a beautiltil and rich
ly dressed lady. Bobbing his baro head,
and waving agide his subordinates, the ob
sequious landlord led the way to tlie parior,
took the orders of the distinguished guests,
and communicated them to his servants.
Then there was an opening and shutting of
doors, a ringing of bells, a rushing to and
fro, lu short, a tumult as if - the queen
had come. - ., .
When the travelers were left to. them
selves the lady broko out ,in a merry
laugh. !
"Oh, it is too droll, Sir Edward; it is
the same landlord, who, fifteen years ago,
bade me be gone for a thief and a tramp."
"The villain I 1 should like to lay my
cane over his back," said Sir Edward.
'It isn't worth while sncb-an insignif
icant back," said the lady ; "only don't
take on airs, thin king all this attention is
for us. It is only tor our carriage and
horses, and our clothes." ' -1 . " -
By and by," the landlord having made
some farther errand to the parlor, the lady
who' was sitiiug by the window remarked :
"You have a pleasant village here." ,
As pleasant and thriving a villRge a3
any in the'eountry," answered tlie. de
lighted landlord. -:j Hf1"? '
"Do you know it there Is a family by
the uame of Mallory living here?' asked
'There is a former by that name, ma'am
John Mallory if it's him you laean."
"The same, no doubt. He's living then
and his mother?" ..
"She died some six years ago, ma'am,
and it's well, perhaps, consideriiigthe mis
fortune that bos come to the family.'
"Misfortune?" -, ; ,, ,"7
"Then you don't know," sakl tie land
lord, delighted to -have some intelligence
to communicate, but marveling much that
this great lady conld feel any interest in tlie
Mallory family. "Well, it's a great mis
fortune, and the worst of it is, It was all
his own fault. , If people will be So" foolish
they must take the consequences.-. There
wasn't a more prosperous man hr town
than John Mallory, and, his property being
mostly in real estate, there was no reason
why he shouldn't keep it always, and his
children after him, tor real estate doesn't
take to itself wing3 and fly away as other
riches do. But what doe3 John do but
sign a note for a friend, and now he's lost
everything."
"Everything?"
"Everything just turned himself and
family out ot house and home. That is to
say, they will have to go; there's no help
torit-"
"He's at the old place now, is he?"
"He is, ma'am, but he won't be long;
the sale takes place to-day.'
"Thanks," said the lady; and then, as if
to herself, "Poor John? so like him."
"You know him?" queried the landlord.
'(He showed me a great kindness once,
fifteen years ago. I was here also at tliat
time. You do not remember it?"
"It is strange, but really mam, it has
escaped my recollection."
'yuite likely, it was Deiore my marri
age." And with this the landlord had to
be satisfied.
The sale was over, and John Mallory was
wandering from .room to room, taking a
mute farewell of the house ho could no
longer call his own, when his little daugh
ter came to say that a lady was in the
parlor who had asked for him,
"Very well," said he, supposing it to be
some neighbor who wished to see him on a
trifling matter of busiue&s; but when he
opened the door a stranger stood "before
him. She greeted him courteously, and
then said, without any circumlocution:
'-I am the purchaser of your farm, and
have brought tlie deed that you may see if it
Is all right."
lie took It listlessly enough, but as he
glanced over it his countenance changed.
. "I "don't understand," said he; and no
wonder, for the deed was made out in his
own name.
"So you, too, have forgotten me, as well
as the big landlord up there; but maybe
you remember that," and she held out to
him a queer little purse ot netted silk.
John Mallory fixed his startled gaze up
on her face, and something in tho lustrous
eyes, the smiling month, touched a long
silent chord. of memory. She saw it, and,
answering his look, said:
''Yes, lam Estelle LeRoy, and the same
Providence which sent you to me in my
despair has sent me to you in your time
of sorrow. No thanks, John Mallory. 1
do no more than requite your kindness to
me, and hardly that, so keep the deed, I
pray you. But tho little purse with that
I will never part."
She then told him that within two or
three years after returning to Canada she
had married an Englishman of rank and
had been in Europe most of the time since;
but tliat being now on a tour through the
States they had come out of their way to
visit those who had befriended her in her
need.-
"The dear mother is gone 1 hear; but tho
pretty M-irie she is well?"
"My wife is well, and will come herself
and thank yon for your great goodness."
"Not to-night; but to-morrow Sir Ed
ward will come with me. and we will talk
it all over the past and the present. He
knows it all, and he will say the thanks
are due from ourselves, not from yon."
And in this she proved a true prophet.

MEDICINES.
A prominent New York phvsician lately com
plained to DUN DAS DICK & CO. about their
Sandalwood Oil, C'apmi:ks, stating that they
sometime. cuied miraculously, but that a put 1
ent of his had taken them without effect. On
being informed that, several imitations were
sold, he inquired and found his fuiliont had not
been taking DUNDAS DICK CO-S.
What happened to this phvs'cian mnv have
happened to others, nnd DUNDAS DICK A CO.
take this method of protecting physicians, drug
gists and themselves, and preventing O11.-CF
Sandalwood from coming into disrepute.
PHYSICIANS who once prescribe t he Capsules
will continue to do so, for they contain tho pure
Oil in the best nnd cheapest form.
DUNDAS DICK & CO. use more Oil op San
dalwood than all the wholesale nnd Retail
Druggists and Perfumers in tlie United States
combined, and this Is tho sole reason why the
?tire Ol 1 is sold elieaner in their Capsules than
n any other form. 1
OIL OF SANDALWOOD is fast superseding
every other remedy, sixty capsules only being
required to insure a safe and certain cure in six
or eight days. From no other modicinecan this
result be had. I
DUNDAS DICK & CO'S SOFT CAPSULES
solve the problem, long considered by eminent
physicians, of how to avoid tlie nausea and dis-
fast experienced In swullowing, which are well
nown to detract from, if not destroy, the good
effects of many valuable, remedies. -
Soft Capsules are put up in tin-foil and neat
boxes, thirty in each, and are the only Capsules
prescribed by physicians. i
