"Yon won't really go nt this'time of the year, will yonH" "Rather. I'd go in Decomher if Dick were nt the end of the jonrnuy." "Well, I would not crom the Atlantic in tho middle of November for a dozen sweethearts. " Miriam Innghod gleefully. She and her Dick had been separated for three years, and now ho had fallen into a good berth at Toronto nnd had written to her to decide whether tlioy should both spend their winter in loneliness or whether she wonld go to him nnd set tle down at once na his wife. Miriam did not hesitate a moment, fihe set aside the shortest time possible for winding up her m Unit's in England nnd nrranged to sail in the fjivonian from Liverpool to Halifax. "lint yon'U have a dreadful overland jonrnoy after that. It nmst bo n long wny to Toronto," said her friend Nora. "I don't know how you'll got through nil by yourself. " "Ah, but I'm not going to. Dick has been sent by his firm to Now York od some business, and ho intends to take a berth in the Meldrnm, a coasting steamer, which will bring him to Hali fnx about the samo time that I got thore. " Miriam was in a fever of joy and was altogether oblivions of such small mat ters as intense cold, n pitching, rolling ship and battened down hatches. The good ship fought gayly through n stormy, ico threatened sea, nnd at last a morning broko when tho sun shone fair nnd the waves sank into a com parative calm. Passengers swarmed on deck, congratulating each other on their escape from prison, and tho anxious captain sighed with relief to think that the worst was over. Ho was npon his bridge, stamping np and down to keep the blood circulating in his feet, when ahead of them he saw a strange speck dancing on the waves. As ho drew nearer ho found it an ap parently empty boat, and ho sent off; ono of 1ns ooatH to tow tho stranger to the steamer. When it readied the side, however, tho limp form of a sailor was lifted from it. Under caro ond good trentment tho blood began to run again through his stiff veins, and ho was able to tell what had befallen him. Unt be-j foro that happened his boat had been landed on deck, and tho nnme xipon it Meldrnm nmdo known. "How funny I" cried Miriam. "A steamer sailing from New York to Hal ifax is named Meldrnm." "Aye, lnisfiie, " said n sailor omi nously, "and this is onoof her boats." "But how cun it bo? How conld it have got loose out hero?" "If that poor chap lives ho can tell us that, and no ono else perhaps. " After somo timo tho sailor's words began to beat into Miriam's stupefied brain. She tried to spenk to somo one standing near, but her tongno would not move, only her knees shook so much that sho nearly fell. Her neighbor drew her to a seat "Is tho Meldrnm wrecked" Miriam asked, with traglo eyes. "I do not know, bnt I hope not. That poor fellow will tell ns, if ho lives." That evening it was known that the Meldrnm had collided with another vessel in tho storm, and that, although all tho boats had been lowered, they had ono after another been swamped. The rescued sailor had just jumped into ono when its ropes snapped, and ho wns therefore tho only person saved. The stewardess took the tidings with A cup of ten to Miriam us she lay inert nnd despairing on her sofa, nnd she let tho woman gossipont her news without uttering n sonnd. At last the stewardess went away, and Miriam lay still, not thinking, only suffering. Later sho crawled into her bed, where, through tho night, visions of Dick, as n boy, ns a youth, ns a man, rushed through her mind. Sometimes sho saw his face shilling through the darkness, but when sho clasped him round the nock ho was cold as ico and wet with salt water. Then she wns out on the npper deck nnd not alone, lly her side stood some one a huge man. giant, who seemed to reach to the sky. 11 is clothes changed their color from light to dark, from black to brown. His great body undu lated all the time, and when ho pnt his arm round her he seemed to be sur romided witli a dry.Miffocating warmth. Then ho pointed a long arm to the northeast, and seemed to slip farther nud farther nwny, though he still stixd by her side: the minister lengthem) into miles; Miriam followed him with straining eyes, when n Hash of light ning lit up the sky and sea. It played for n nioineut round a distant tpot, which the giant was touching, ami in that moment she aw u picture which she never forgot. In the little circle of light a boat reek ed helplessly upon the waters. I nder n sail were ororchod some do.ou people, trying, by huddling together, to keep the warmth in their Unlies.

There was a sudden movement in the Iranian heap, a white face peeped out. and then the vision passed. Miriam lay in her berth, tho new dawn already lightening the sky. lhen feverishly she got up and went on deck to see nothing but the gray sky and grayer sea. to hear nothing bnt the throbbing of the engines and tho sough of tho wind and waves. Breakfast time came, bnt she heeded it not. For honrs sho stood Immovable, gazing to the northeast over the bulwarks. What did that dream of hers menu Was Dick floating somewhere helplessly, with oth er passengers? It was noon when the wind, veering, sentaclond of smoko over her head and a shower of black smudges upon her hands. With them came a passing sensation of warmth. This slight inci dent nwoke some vague memory con nected with her dream. The black col umn of smoke, changing at its edges to brown, thinning out until she could see tho gray sky through it, starting ovor from hersido und yet reaching far into tho distance, caught her eye Inspiration followed quickly. The smoko wns the giant of the night be fore, nnd whero it pointed lny Dick and his companions I Sight danced into her eyes, hope beat strongly in her heart. She turned a glorified face to tho ship. What could sho do? How save them? Sho saw a foot surmounted by blue cloth moving methodically on the deck above, nnd in n moment flew up the stairE lending to the enptnin's bridge. TIio captain turned round sharply at tho sound of strango footsteps, and per emptorily ordered her down. Clutching his arm sho cried : "Captain I They aro out there, under the lino of smoko 1 A dozen survivors of tho Meldrnm are drifting helplessly and nearly dead I" The captain glanced in the direction indicated. How should this frantic yonng woman havo seen what his prac tised eye could not discern ? Then he guessed that she was tho person who, they said, had lost her lover in the wreck. "My dear," he cried, patting her hand, "go to your berth and lio down. Yon aro in great trouble." Bnt tho haggard, hopeful eyes stnred brightly nt him. "For tho lovo of humanity, captain, nso yonr glass. Yon will see them. I know you will." To humor her he took a carefnl sur vey of the horizon, upon which tho sun was shining. At first ho shook bis head, then ho stood for a long tiino ex amining tho spot under the thin edgo of the line of smoke. Ho rubbed his glasses well and looked again, then said qnietly : "Something is there. Sit down in that corner and wait." Tho course of tho steamer was altered slightly and n boat was lowered onco more to gather in tho ocean's drift. To his surp'riso tho captain saw that tho distant object was really a boat, with out sail or oar. How could tho girl havo known it? Then tho group of peoplo becunio visible, nil evidently in the lust Btago of exhaustion, and ho went over to Miriam and told her to look through his glass nnd see if her friend were there. Sho took it from his hand with n wild sob and gazed long and steadily at tho coming boat, then gavo tho glass back in tho midst of a passion of weep ing, nodding her head to signify that sho had seen Dick. Then she set herself to regain self control by tho timo the boat camo in. When it did, she was waiting in tho hospital for her beloved. For tho noxt -l hours sho shared tho duties of nurse with onoof the steward esses and saw Dick's eyes open with tho first gleam of consciousness in them. With n contented look nt her he fell nsleop, nnd on tho ship's arrival at Hal ifnx ho with nil those who had been saved wero well enough to bo moved to moro couifortablo quartors on shore. Tho captain made friends with Mir iam during thoso fow hours and learn ed how it was that she knew tho boat was nfloat. Ho conld hardly bcliovo it, nnd ho could not explain it, but was contonted to accept the fact as it stood nnd to bo present at tho simple cero rnony which luudo Dick nnd Miriam man and wifo. Buffalo News. A Man ot StraTT. From timo immemorial straw, prob ably because of its inseparable connec tion witli bread, tho staff of life, has had a more or less sacred significance. Onr Aryan forefathers strewed their al tars with it and swore on it as we swear on tho I)ibU. It is easy to under stand how this practice would lend to tho stalk of corn being used as tho sym bol of nbindingcontract. For instance, tho Latin for a stalk is stipnlatio, Whence naturally comes "stipulation." In medieval times tho presentation of a stalk of corn was a sign of service and faith. So. too. nr. "nirim f .iT-a later times eervauts wishing to be hired carriea n srrawln their mouths. And in tho dnyswhen unscrupulous persons de liberately hired themselves nnr. to HH. gants to givo any evidence that was wumeu, tuey wore straws in their shoes, from which custom wo have the saying "man of straw" n Tiorm p rial or moral worth. Tho horse with straw plaited in his mane and tail is perhaps the hist surviving iiiaon ,.f tho significance of straw as implying or oiuumg n contract. Oil For the Wtu. The men nnd women of ancient Greece nud the famous beauties of every clime always understood the use of oil in the toilet, says an authority, which gives the following hint : When animal oil is used, it clegs up the pores and renders tho skin coarse, but vegetable oils. Mi-h as the Greeks nsed. feed the skin. '1 here are many skins that do not need lubrication after a Kith, but there are many others which are benefited by the use of fine vegetable oil. such al moral cream, which furnishes food to the s'.-in and is n powerful aid in the light against wrinkles.

She referred to her condition as "her cros:," and everyone tlioupht now brave and good she was to bear her burden with such fortitude. One by one her girl friends were joined to the men of their choic-. Sue sent them nil presents ami received from each a piece of wedding elite which she cried over a little, and didn't put under her pillow because it wasn't any fjood for her to dream. No until could marry her. A life of s-.lltary stilV.-ring was h-rs. Yet her sad smile only Bol brighter as her cross got heavier. One il iv a young man found his way into that home ; ic.kiiig upon this girl, he loved her And no he came often and she grew lo look for him, and learned to lean on him. and dreamed the pretty lir.-a.ns that come to pure women whose hearts Cutl has fashioned for happy love. But over all the prospect was the shadow of her cross. "It could never be, never be ! " She said it over and over again to herself ntany-a iii'dtt as the tears slipped down her face Then she got to saying : " If it only could be 1 If il ouiv could he !" And sue said this many times dav and night. One day she lav on the sofa and began to say, " It slum I-'!" 1TSI!ALLI1E,.. " I'll break this cross to pieces or I'll die trying." And then she looked around for help And by chai.ee or providence there came into her hand a boo!: the book whose title and contents ale referred lo below. It appealed lo her. Common sense was what she needed. She realized iiow that she had eves, hands, ornans, dimensions like her girl friends, who were matrons and mothers. She realized that it was not common sense that she should be born lo be crushed by her cross. Life, libertv and the pursuit of happiness w-ere her inalienable rights and she wanted the full lights of her womanhood. It was common sense she needed. She had tried all the uncommon, extraordinary and ex travagant forms of treatment, now she wanted less medicine and more common sense. It was thus she began the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. The rest of the store sounds like a fairy story. But it is only like a fairy story in that it ends amid the merrv clang of inairiacc bells ami with "they lived happy ever afterwaid." II seemed a miracle to her friends to see this martvr, this patient cross healer, jrel up from her sofa and begin to live. It was more strange when she took to poll', and the wheel, and tennis, with all the ardor of one so long excluded from out door enjovnicnt. And strangest of nil tliat she became Ihe mother of healthy, happy chil dren. This is not a fairy story. It is not the storv of one person. II is the story of tlioiiQaio'ls of women. It is a composite 1 picture ill which one can trace face behind lace, linen Willi surierine;, cnauucicu oy tears. It is a story as true as the parable of the Prodigal Son, which was not the story of one young man but the story of the type which repeats itself generation after generation and is as common to ICurope as to Asia, to A frica as to Americn. IS IT YOUR STOItV? Your Btory either in whole or in part? There's hope for you. There's help for you.
