HeprHated by TIIE day of the great football frame ira approaching, and all KrntrinK ton wai wrought up to fever prlcli. On the campui, at the eating cluht, audio the town the talk waa of but oik thing. "How are the nion to-day?" "la Trovert' lrgny better?" "Will In be able to piay7" "Any iign of over training?" "Do you know what trlcka they arc working up?" And at on generally, be It obterred, in the orm of quettlom for at thla tt-aaoa of the yrnr the "Intlile" ia very accre tive, and oiitahlc g""lp voric in de tail almost with the nuinber of upeuk era. In the abarnce of definite knowl edge the niiiprniie waa lerrlllc. A pir. it of nrrvoua unrrit pervaded the mil Teraity, and, torlott work waa well nigh Impoatlbl. Moreover, thla aplrll affected not only the atudrnt body, but many faculty t-irrleasa well, lnttruct ora and younger profeaeoara were un der lit away, perlutpt quite much at any undc r-i'lnniru. At "The Cloittcr," whrra four of u, tralnrra of youth, live in contented bachelorhood, the electric tension of the atmosphere waa obvloua. Otir conversation at meul and after wai always alio lit football; lecture were prepared without the uiuiil care and thought; and 1 frur we all aprnt much time In reading the athletic coliimni of the dally papert which ought right ly to hare been devoted to original re search. "I don't know why It ia, fellow," mid Mil for. I, out day at dinner; ""1 dn't care a rap about the aiunller ganife; I don't take intereat enough in the in, even, to go down to the flcld when they arc played In Kensington. Hot when it cornea to the big onn, I get to nervoiia it break me all up; 1 can't work and can't tleep for think ing about them. The atraln I fearful." 1'ruf. M It ford hat a highly strung temperament, but we all felt that Ilia particular worda applied to our own cane, too. Hut thla particular year Mitford had an uddrd tourer of anxiety in connection with the game, (iulld, the great half-back, whom everyone Iooked to to aecure the needed touch down, waa conditioned In Mltfnrd't eubjert, nnd thnt condition miiKl be re niovrd before he could piny in the championship game. Mitford hail Kent liiin notice after notice, with no effect, nd he knew the atinlent might t lempt to take advantage of the focul tie' sympathy with their cause, nnd get around the condition In tome way. Now Mitford win a moil contclrntlous man, and he had tworn by all that waa holy thut (iuild mimt pant li.ix exam inntiun regulurly if he were to play in the game; and yet hit heart waa with the tram, and he knew braidet thr un popularity he nuial expert to Incur, If anything he did should contribute to the defeat of Kriwington lu the great evvnt of the year. "What lout Guild, Mlt?" we asked 3il in one day at Utile. Mit looked up with an expression of disgust, nnd what he aaid In reply ia beat rr-pra-aented by dashes and atterltka. After that the eubjert waa dropped, nn fnr aa we were concerned. Hut certain thing became plainer a the dnya paued by and the date of the game drew nenr. It was evident that the I'embroke team were improving won derfully, and would give our men a trememlou fight. And It waa nlho evident thut our men relied on tiuild, practically, to win the game for them, lie wa t'liniiiploii kicker, and run ner, and 1 ii-k li r, ull In one. "If 1 1 it i lil i knockrd out during the game we nr.- loat," .aid tome one at the Cloittcr once. We all agreed with the apriikrr in our inmoM hearts, but a Mit waa prrarnt wp expressed no opinion, and th lubject wan deftly changed. It waa th arcotul day before the Tame, and the teain were to leave for I'embroke the next morning. Our anxiety could Lot longer lie sup fretted. That nervousness and rether. The worry an J cures of business or home, overwork, Idss of sleep, improper food all tend to irritate the temper, derange the digestion, weaken the nerves and undermine the health. This tearing " vn of the life forces must be stopped. The ebbing tide of health must be checked, and new energy, new life, new ambition infused into the whole system. To do this Quickly and thoroughly use Bffo Miles' NeffvSaae., It tfts directly on the nervous system, uuiets the irritation, restores the wasted tissues as Soli hy aS droggists on a guarantee. "Ha Guild pUaed off tbat 6ondl tion yet?" I ventured to eak Mit in the course of the day. "Oh, go bury younrelf," he n swered, and my fear were corn- firmed. With carte blanche from the fuculty a to time, Guild had put off lila examination till the laat minute, and a fnilure now would be irremedi able. That evening we were to have a party of guet to dinner Mit' frienda, they were and the talk could be of nothing but the gam. About Ave o'clock the doorbell rang, end a party of atudenta appeared. Mlt waa out after hi guetvt, and it fell to ma to receive the men. 'We have corn to aee about Mr, Guild' examination with Prof. Mit ford," aaid the apokeaman. They were all anxioua and nervous, but I though! 1 detected a certain note of defiance in the speaker' voice. I oonaulted with my chums, and at lost we found the examination paper which Mit had prepared for the occaaion. The honor ayatem it in vogue at Kensing ton, to they were allowed to take the paper to Guild's room. While we were at dinner 1h bell Tang at leaat a down times. The maid returned each time with the an nouncement! "Some atudenta to aee Mr. Mitford." She hud told them, of course, that Mr. Mitford waa at din ner, and they had left. It waa a dif ferent pnrty each time, come to in quire whether Guild had patmed. And all thla time Guild waa in hi room, presumably acrllililing nwny for dear life. During the evening the bell-ringing kept up, and Mitford each time re flated to aee the caller. Our gucal. who were out-of-town pe. ole, and, of courae, deeply intereated In the game, had been told of the clrcumMance, and pliiinly showed signs of curiolly. "Why, you almply must pnn him, Mr. Mitford," Mild-the bewitching Mr. Alton, the chaperon of the pnrty. in her moat enticing voice. "Just sup pose we should lose the game on that account!" "Madam," said Milford, putting nn a dignity which is unusual with him at home, whatever he be in the rlimsronm "Madam. If he gels M) percent. I shall part him;" and the fnir visitor sow at once that she had tried toenrry her tyranny beyond its proper domain. At length our guests departed, nnd Mit went with them to escort I hem to the Inn. Boon lifter they hiul gone, a student came around with Guild's pa per. He wanted to remain nnd hear the result, but we told him thnt 1'ruf. Mitford was out and might not be back till late. He left In a state of obvious perturbation. At for us, words cannot describe our anxiety. We talked nnd talked, and walked rcttlcsnly about the room and waited; but Mitford still failed to appear. At last we went up stain. Though I seldom rend In bed. that night I thought I might profit by a few hours, which would not in any cste be claimed by Morpheus. Hut what I read mode no Impression on inc whatever. My thought were on the gnme, and Guild, and Mitford. Finally the outer door rattled, and Mitford't step wai beard in the Intl. below. "Mit," shouted Jim, "the paper's on the desk in your study!" "You mustn't come tip till you've read It," chimed in George from his room. "Klght!" I added, Involuntarily, and kicked myself immediately afterwnrd for doing ao, A loud "hmm" was lilt only answer, as he ttnlked Into hit study. 'fhere wnt silence above nnd belnw for about half an hour. And 1 know now that Mit spent most of thnt time with Ilia eyes closed and his face In his hands, in agony. He hiid rend the pn per, and given liberal credit for nil Unit was In II, and the figures siimuiri! up to a total of exactly 45. Should he naive bis scruples and let the mnii through? If he did not, what would be his future In Kensington? lie snw the sudden end of hit popularity the game hurt and hit fault! The conflict wnt long and terrible. "No, I must do It, whatever the ron tequencet," he muttered at Inst, nnd turned to write the fatal number on the pnper. The room seemed suddenly dnrk and cold. As he turned the pagca. suddenly bis eye fell on a sheet of pa-H-r on the floor which he hud over looked, it was the answer to another questionand It was right! He Jumped up like a Hash. Our enrs had been straining tocnlch some sound below, He rushed into the hall ami shouted triumphantly : "lla's pnssed; he's passedl" "Yca-a," wns Ihe yell of three voices from above, and the agony wns over. Two days Inter Guild made a 40 yard run through the entire Pembroke team for a touch-down, and kicked thegonl himself. And thnt run gate Kensing ton th championship. A I'rtlty Jsiissrst Story. One of the prettiest of nil Ihe stories relating to mirrors is that w hirh conic from th far cnt. In this a nuin brings at a gift to his wife u mirror of silvered bronre. Then she, having mi h nothing of tha kind before. i.kK in the Innocence of her henrt whose was the pretty face smiling bnck at her. Ami when, laughing, he tells her it is none other Ihnu her own. she wonders still more, but is ashamed to nvk further questions. Hut when at Inst hertiihe comes to die she cnlls tier little daugh ter and i. lo r ihe treasure she has long kept bi.'.iicn away as a sacred thing, telling her: "After 1 am dead you must look in this mirror iiiornli." and i euiii, nnd you will see me. !o not grieve." So when the mother is dead the girl, who much resembles her, looks In the mirror day by day, think ing she there talks face to face w ith the dead woman, and never guessing it is but her own shadow she sees. And it is added, by the old Japanese narrator, that when the girl's father learned the meaning of this sir.uige conduct of hers, "he thinking it to be a very pit eout thing, his eyes grew dark with tears "- Tr T'mes headache tro to- "For many headache and general nervousness. I took many kinds of medicine, but never found lasting relief until 1 commenced taking Dr. Miles' Nervine.
