It never rests. It Is always wanting,
wanting v, anting. It hurries on, and
then It creeps back aliijvly without
having rem licit, moaning. It is always
making a question, and it never gets
the answer. I can hear It In the day

"At Inst they tiinuil to go. and I

gone back to tb garden iLen. Cut I
did not want tuuslc. 1 wauled clothe
and to be fanluouuLle and Hue. 1 felt
(Lit my hand were coarse and that I
waa vulgar. 1 never'trled to see htm
again. 1 staid In my situation four
months after that, but I was not hap
py. I had DO rest The peopl about
iu pressed un lu aud wad ute lls
eallsded. 1 could not forget Iheiii.
"Only una day auinethiug uiad m
happy. A ourst; cam to tb atuiu wUb
m lltU girl belonging lu ou of our
clerks. While the maid weut Into the
otllr to give a message to Its. father
the little child stood looking al uie.
I'rescutly she cam close to me and
peeped up Into my face.
"Mti curia, pretty curls, she aaitl
I like curia.'
'She felt my hair all over with her
Uttle band. When 1 put out my area,
she let iu take ber and ait her un my
knee. Blie kissed me with ber soft
month. V were happy till the nurse
girl came and shook her and asked ber
If she waa not ashamed to alt on the
knee of that strange man. Hut I do
not think my little one minded. She
laughed at me a she went out.
"If the world waa all children. I
could like It. but men and women draw
me ao strangely aud then press me
away till I am In agony. I waa not
meant to live among (teople. Terhupa
aonie day, when I am grown older, I
will be able to go and live among them
and look at them, as I look at the rocks
and bushes, without letting them dis
turb me and take myself from me, but
iMit now. Ho I grew miserable. A kind
of fever seemed to eat me. 1 could nut
rest or read or think, so I came back
here. I knew you were not here, but
It seemed as though 1 should be nearer
you, aud It la you I waut, you that the
other people suggest to me, but cannot
give."
"It baa been a delightful Journey,
this Journey borne. I have walked on
foot. The evening before last, when It
was Just sunset, I was a little footsore
and thirsty and went out of the road to
look for water. I went down Into a
deep little 'kloof.' Home trees ran along
the bottom, and I thought I should fiud
water there. The aim had quite set
when I got to the bottom of It. It wns
very still. Not leaf was stirring
anywhere. In the bed of the moun
tain torrent I thought I might tlnd wa
ter. I came to the bank and leaped
down luto the dry bed. The floor on
which I stood was of flue white sand,
and the banks rose on every lde like
the wall of a room. Almve there wns
a precipice of rocks, and a tiny stream
of water oozed from them and fell
slowly on to the flat stone to-low. F.nrh
drop you ceuld hear full like a little
liver bell. There was one among the
tree on the bank that stood cut out
against the white sky. All the other
trees were silent, but this oue shook
nnd trembled against the sky. Every
thing els waa still, but those leaves
were quivering, quivering. I stood on
tli sand. I could not go nway. When
It waa quit dark and the stars bad
come, I crept out. Does It seem strange
to you that It should have made me so
happy J It Is because I cannot tell
you bow near 1 felt t things that we
cannot ace. Wit w always feeL To
night baa been a wild, stormy night. I
have been walking across the plain for
hour In the dark. I have liked the
wind, because I have seemed forcing
my way through to you. I kuew you
were not here, but I would bear of
you. When I used to sit on the trans
port wagon half sleeping. I used to
tart awske because your bands were
ou me. In my lodgings many nights 1
have blown the light out and sat In
the dark that 1 might see your face
start out more distinctly. 8omctlmet
It waa tb little girl's faco who used
to com to me behind tho 'kopju' when
I minded sheep and sit by me In her
blue pinafore. Horaetlmea It wns the
elder. I love both. 1 am very help
less. I shall never do anything, but
you will work, amd I will take your
work for mine, Hometlmcs such a
sadden gladness seizes me when I re
member that somewhere lu the woild
you are living aud working. Vou are
my very own. Nothing else Is my own
o. When I have finished, 1 am going
to look at your room door"
He wrote, and the wlud, which had
pent It fury, moaned round and
round th house, most like a tired child
weary with crying.
Em woke up aud eat before the fire,
rubbing her eyea and listening as It
Bobbed about th gnblea aud wandered
away over th king stone walls.
"Yon have many letters to write,"
he Mid.
"No," h answered. "It la only one
to I.yndall."
She turned a.way and stood long be
fore the fire looking Into It If you
have a deadly fruit to give. It will not
grow sweeter by keeping.
"Waldo, dear," she said, putting her
hand on his. "leave off writing."
He threw back the dark hair from
bis forehead and looked at her.
"It la no use wrltlug any more," she
aid.
"Why not?" be asked.
Plie put ber baud over the papers he
had written.
"Waldo." ahe said, "I.yndall Is dead."

Slowly over the flat came a cart On
the back seat sat Gregory, his arms
folded, bla hat drawn over Ms eyes. A
Katllr boy ant on the front sent driving,
and at hla feet sat I Kiss, w ho now nnd
gain lifted bla nose and eyes above
the level of th splash board to look
at the surrounding country and then,
with an exceedingly knowing wluk of
bla left eye, turned to hla companions,
thereby Intimating that he clearly per
ceived his whereabouts. No one no
ticed the cart coming. Waldo, who
was at work at his carpenter's table
lu the wagon bouse., saw nothing till,
chsnclng to look down, he perceived
Doss standing before him, the legs
trembling, tb little nose wrinkled and
a aerie of short, suffocating barks giv
ing utterance to hla Joy at reunion.
Km, whose eye had ached with look
ing out across the plain, was now at
work In a back mom and knew nothing
till, looking up, she saw Gregory, with
hla straw hat and blue eyes, standing
In the doorway, lie greeted her quiet
ly, hung his hat up In Its old place be
hind the door, and for any change In
hi manner or appearance he might
have been gone only the day before to
fetch lettera from the town. Only bi
beard waa gone, aud his fsie waa
grown thinner. He took off his leather
gaiters, said th afternoon waa hot
and the road dusty and asked for
some tea. They talked of wool and
the rattle and the sheep, and Em gave
blm the pile of letter that had com
for him during th month ofshseoce,
but of the thing that lay at their
hearts neither said anything. Then he
went out to look at th kraals, and at
upper Fra gav him riot cake and
coffeei. They talked about th serv
ant and then at their meal In quiet.
She cam and aat on a footstool near
him.
"Do yon wish to hear anything?" he
asked.
fth whispered, Tea, If It doe not
hurt you."
let be lay uulet for a long time. n
li Ut through the open door stowed
bun to ber, wber be lay, with his arm
thrown across bi eye. At last he
spoke, i'erhap it wa a relief to blm
to speak.
To Hloeiufoiiteln, In th I're State,
tu which through an agent be bad trac
ed tbeiu, Gregory had gin. At tb be
tel whe I.yndall and bar stranger
bad taM be put up. He wa abown
the very room In wblcb tbey bad slept
The colored boy who bad driven tbein
to lb next town told blm in wblcb
bouse they bad boarded, aud Gregory
Wfiit ou. lu that town be found tbey
bad left the cart and bought aplder
and four grays, and Gregory' heart
rejoiced. Now, Indeed, It would be
easy to trace tbelr course, and b turn
ed hi step northward.
At one desolate farm tfie Bor bad a
good deal to tell. Tbe lady bad aalii
ah liked a wagon that stood before
tli door. Without asking tb price tb
Englishman bad offered 1190 for th
old thing and bought oxe worth tlO
for flti. Tb Dutcbma) chuckled, fur
be bad tb "Salt rlin'" money In tb
box under bis bed. Gregory laughed,
too, In alienee. II could not lo sight
of thciu now, so slowly tbey would
have to mov with that cumbrous itt
wagon. Yet when that evening earn
nnd be reached a little waaide Inn no
one could tell blm anything of tb trav
eler. '
Th master, a surly creature, half
atup'.d with Boer brandy, aat oo th
bench befiar th door smoking. Greg
ory sat beside him, questioning, but
be smoked on. U remembered Ooth
feslf of such stranger. How should b
know who bad been tber months and
iitenths before? II smoked on. Greg
ory, very weary, tried to awak bi
memory; aald that tb lady a waa
seeking for waa very beautiful, bad a
little mouth and tiny, very tiny feat
The man ouly smoked on aa sullenly as
at first What wer little, very little,
mouth and feet to blm? Rut III
daughter leaned out In tb window
above. She wa dirty and laxy and
liked to loll there when travelers came
to hear the men talk, bnt ahe bad a soft
her.rt. Presently a band cam out of
the window, and a pair of velvet Up
pers touched hi shoulder, tiny alin
ters wltb black flowers.- II pulled
them out of her hand. Only one wo
man's feet bad worn tcm; be knew
that
"l,oft Iter last aummer by a lady,"
snld the girl; "might be the ot.e you are
looking for; never taw any feet ao

They might have com In a wagon

Gregory atopied ber.
Tbe lady? Well, she waa pretty,
rather, the girl said; very cold, dull
air, silent Tbey atuld for. It might
le, Ave day; slept In the, wing over
against tbe "stoep;" quarreled some
times, be thought the lady. 8b bad
acn everything w hen she wenl In to
wait One day the gentleman touched
her hair. She drew back from ulai a
though Ids finger polsoued her; went
to the other end of the room If be came
to sit near her; walked out aleoe; cold
wife for such a buudsome husband, th
girl thought. She evidently pitied blm,
he wns such a iK-anllful .uiau. They

Gregory Inquired of th servsnts.
but nothing more wua lo be learned, so
the uext inorulng he saddled hla bora
and went on. At the farms he earn to
the good old "ooins" and "Unte" ask
ed hliu to have coffee, and )i llltle
shoeless children peeped out at the
stranger from behind evens and gable,
but no one had seeu what be asked for.
This way and that he rode to pick up
the thread he had dropped, but the
spider and the wagou, the little lady
and the handsome gcu Human, no ono
bad seen. In the towns be fared yet
worse.
Once Indeed bone cam to hi in. On
the "stoep" of a hotel at which he
tald the night In a certain little vll
nitre there walked a gentleman, grave
and kindly looking. It wa not bard
to open conversation wltb blm about
the weather, and then Had h evei
seen such and such people, a geutle-
luiai and lady, a spider and wagon, ar
rive at that place? The kindly gcntle
ninii shook his bead. What wa the
lady like? be Inquired.
Gregory palntsil -hair Ilk silken
floss, small mouth, utiderllp very full
and pink; upier Hp pink, but very tbln
and curled. Tber wer four white
pots on tbe aw I of her right band
forellnger, and her eyebrows were very
delicalely curved. The gentleman look
ed thoughtful, as trying te remember.
"Yes, and a rosebud tinge In the
clonks, band Ilka lilies and perfectly
seraphic smile,
"That Is she! That la (her cried

Were not her ear Her such a vio

he ttm away Into the bonse. Ail 111 fed
clerk and a dirty barman staBdlug In
the doorway laughe! aloud. Gregory
wondered If they could be laughing at
the gentleman'a cough, and then be
heard some one laughing In tb room
Into which the gentleman had gone.
He must follow him and try to learn
more, but he soon found that there
was nothing mora to b learned tber.
Poor Gregory I
One (lay. coming to a fettle town, hi
horses knocked up, he resolved to rest
them there. The little hotel of the
town was a bright and sunny place,
like the Jovial face of the clean little
woman who kept It and wbo trotted
alioin talking always; talking to the
cnstniiiris In the taproom and to tb
maids In the kitchen and to th psss
ersby when she could ball then) from
the windows; talking, a good natural
woiiHD wltb large mouth and mall
noses slwss do, in season and out
There was a little front parlor la tb
hotel, kept for stranger who wanted
to be alone. Gregory aat tber t eat
Ma break fast, and th landlady dusted
the room and talked of th great finds
at the diamond Held and th badnoaa
of maidservants and the shameful con
duct of the Dutch parson In that town
to the Kngllsh Inhabitants. Gregory
at his breakfast and listened to noth
ing. I'o had asked hi one question,
had had hi answer. Now she might
talk on. ,
Presently a door In the corner open
ed, and a woman came out a Mosani
btqner, with a red awndkrrchk-f twist
ed round her head She carried In her
hand a tray with a slice of toast cram-
j Med fine and a half Oiled cup of coffee
, and aa erg broken oea, but not eaten.
! Her ebony face grinned complacently
ahe abut th door oftIy and aald,
"Good morning."
Th landlady began to talk to ber.
"Yon ire Dot going t leave he real
It. AyaU, are you?" th aald. "The
maids say so, but I'm aiir yo
wouldn't do eurh a thing."
The lloxamblqner grinned. i
"O'nJ says i nast fa bots."
-nei an haan t rot any one ets and
won't hav any rue els. Come, now."
said the landlady. "I'v no tlm to
b silting always In a sickroom, lot If
1 waa paid anything for it"
Tb Moumblquer only showed ber
whit teeth good ua lured I y for an
swer and went out. and tb hi' Jbvly
followed bur.
Gregory, glad to be alone, watched
tbe sunshine a It cam over the
fuchalas In tbe window and ran up and
down on tb paneled door In tbe cor
ner. Tbe Moiaiublquer bad closed It
loosely behind her. aud presently
something touched It Inside. It mov
ed a tittle. Then It waa still, then mov
ed again. Tben through tbe gap a
mall nose appeared an? a yellow ear
overlapping one ey. Tben th whole
bead obtruded, placing Itself critically
on on side, wrinkled It nose disap
provingly at Gregory and withdrew.
Through tb half open door cam a
fair scent of vinegar, and tbe room

Read This, Consumptives
' From the way uiy wife couched for six months, I knew she had consump
tion. She showed it in her face, too, and her Ixxly wasted away to a mere skele
ton. After she jrot down in bed the doctors couldn't do any good. I called in
both Dr. T. A. Shannon and Dr. N. L. Hawscn, each of whom is a lirst-class
physician, but they had nothing
that would reach the trouble
in her lungs. My wife's lather
came to see ber one day, when
ahe got very low. He lives in

said he knew what was needed,
and made me get a bottle of
Acker'a English Remedy for
Consumption. I went to
Bchmidt's, our local druggist,
aad got a bottle, and it heled
ber right away. She took eight,
joe. bottles, and they put her
back on her feet and made her '
as sound and well as any wo
man in town. She has taken
on flesh again, she doesn't
cough, and if any on who
doesn't know tbe facts was to
be told she was so near death
with consumption, he wouldn't
believe it. My wife does all
her housework, and at night
sleeps a soundly as vou nlease.
Her stomach no lonirereives her any trouble at all

ay Acker' English Remedy is wonderful in all throat and lung troubles ; that

bottle come back to his store, although be has sold hundreds of them. My name
