On the broad window seat a iwlrl of

"Oh, I didn't expect to be found,"
said the maid of honor ungraciously.
"I'm so tired. Are they nearly ready?"
She was rising slowly.
"Don't move," commanded the best
man. "There Is plenty of time."
Tucking the cushions behind her, he

"I've done all I could for Ralph," he
continued, "and I felt entitled to a

I m so muddled I don't know whether
It's Ralph's wedding or mine."
"I suppose circumstances also make
that difficult to decide."
The best man felt his color rise. lie

but he knew the miacblevous look that
gleamed In her eye. Of course It was
no secret that Elua and be had been
girl and boy lovers, but the thrust

acquaintance bad been a series of
drawn battles, without malice, but not
without keenness.
"Yes," be replied, "though I And I'm

difficult to get ahead of the best man.
"I have thought I was," she said
simply.
"Kx-actly," he went on with meas

"And the way I feel about Ralph,"

In the silence they could bear the
talk and laughter of the wedding
guests.
"And yet" she began.

"And they will be peaceful and con

WONDERFUL CURE
OF SORE HANDS
By Cutfoura After tha
Most Awful Suffering
Ever Experienced.
EIGHT DOCTORS
And Many Remedies Failed
to do a Cent's Worth
of Oood.
" About Ave years ago I was troubled
with aora bands, to sore that when I
would put them In water the pain would
very nearly set ma crazy, the akin would
peel off and the flesh would get hard
and break. There would be blood flow
ing from at least fifty places on each
band. Words could never tell the suf
fering I endured for three yean. I
tried everything that I was told to ose
for fully three yean, but could get no
relief. I tried at leaat eight different
doctors, but none of them seemed to do
me any good, as my bands were as bad
when I got through doctoring as when
I first began. I also tried many reme
dies, but none of them ever did me one
cent's worth of good. I was discour
aged and heart-sore. I would feel so
bad mornings when I got up, to think
I bad to go to work and stand the pain
for ten hours, and I often felt like giv
ing up my position. Before I started
to work mornings I wonld have to
wrap every finger up separately, so
as to try and keep them soft and then
wear glovea over the rags to keep
the grease from getting on my work.
At night I would have to wear gloves
in bed. In fact, I bad to wear gloves
all the time. But thanks to Cutlcura,
the greatest of all great skin cures.
After doctoring for three years, and
spending much money, a 60c. box of
Cutlcura Ointment ended all my suffer
tags. It's been two yean since I nsed
any and I don't know what son bands
an now, and never lost a day's work
While using Catlcnra Ointment."
