aerted Grace. "Lett wlnteryouand he
were great friend. It'a a caae of the

"It'a a caae of green-eyei Jralouay
with you," retorted Tiny, and the pair
of flrlrnda aauntered down to the lake
in aearch of the eternal male.
Meanwhile tha lover maodlly re
garded eaah eluer. Their quaj-rela had
been frequent of lata and had reached
a crltle.
"I think it It too bad, Percy, the way
you treat me," aaid Dorothy, her au
burn hair gleaming like gold in the twi
light, her tweet American face with Ita
reminiscences of a spirited atictry
beaming with intelligence, yet over
east with the conaeiuusnrs of ln)u
tlce. A fair picture the mute, with her
lithe athletic figure and look of bou
nty and hatred of all thltiga mean.
"You deliberately el lull ted me Jaat
night at-Mrt. lirowa'a daoce. What la
the meaning of thie? You know you
ara engaged to me, yet you danced with
me but once and flirted outrageously

that It ia too true that you have beet,

ly, "that you are In debt; that your

alifled the incipient pleading of buaor
and honeety. "Why, Dorothy," he
aaid, coldly, "you aurrly hava known
me kng enuugh to hav learned that 1
never adopt a rasolntk without hav.
lug carefully eutniasxl a Urea a ua lot
and against It."
"Did you," broke in Dorothy, ho
piilaively, "exercise thla caution before
you told me you loved me?"
Percy flushed angrily. . "I believe,"
he went na, "in the old Persian prov
erb, 'Undertake nothing of which thou
heat nut well considered lb end.' "
"An ictllnt motto, truly," eald
IVirothy, ooUlly. "Hino when, may I
ask, did you adopt thla rami wiaa
pltilosaphy. It teemi a pity It ahaiuld
have owns to you o law. Do yn think
you have well onnaiilered the end you
ao evidently contemplate?" Feminine
instinct had already warned her of the
treachery the unworthy youth medi
tated. 'Oh, yea," he continued, "I know
what I ant doing. I have conaiderad
it all. I did avoid you laal night. I
wont to bring thla thing to an tad," he
added', brutally.
"Don't trouble yourself, Perry Tl
Uroek," replied the now tadignant girl.
"It la ended."
"Well, Dorothy." aaid Percy, some

"you did eeem awfully in love with me.

on In Dorothy'a mind h would have

Dorothy returned to town, reaumed
in earmH th training of her voice,
which at Aral ah had taken up aa a
pastime, and made rich good nae of
bur tuition that her naturally flexible
topes no -voice of wide range acquired
brilliancy and came ao perfectly un

before her. At the asm time fortune,
a if tired of frowning on the Kinitht,
gave such a turn to Dorothy's father'a

affairs that bad first frightened awny
the selfish Percy vanished, and one fine
morning the, merchant by a atioceesful
deal wa able- to pull out of specula
tion Into hia legitimate buaines with
a large fortune.
Perry began to think he had made
a mistake, and took to frequenting the
Builth residence with regularity; but
Dorothy treated him with absolute
franknVat. "I am wedded to my art
now," ahe aaid, "even If you hnd not

from morning to night with persona
who are looking for bargains, and

Naturally, the thieves themselves
do not act as th salesmen for the

hucksters or allow them to sell for
them on eoinmltitiion. In either ease
the tMof gets little, the dealer i
content with a email prnflt ami the
'.roods, whom original owner ia un
known, can be obtained for a tenth
of their value.
To the visitors to Mexico the mar
ket is well worth n visit, even if
scruples of consoie.t-.ee should prevent
the purchsse of what nm admittedly
stolen goods. There will be no trou
ble In finding the place.
Any policeman or any citUcn will
direct you to it. It is just ci.it of
the Zocalo the park of th
penna and acroea the rtreet
from the south front of the national
palace. Kven with this k.in-vled're
you nilybt prfas but a hiib wall such
as fuii-round. many of the friviite
homea. I'nt nt the end of the '.vrII
is a htnre gnte, Inrvc enough to drive
n loaded truck throu-.-b. I'nssing
through this gate you enter the nmr
kot. It Is a big, open court, stone
paved and surrounded bv building
on three sides rod l-v the wall on
the fourth. .Scn'cred o- thia, ar
ranged In nt.recis, are the booths,
where the stolen goods are displayed
for snle. These stalls arc crude
affairs. I'sually they consist of a
few honrds, Infd on support which
raise them two or three feet off the
ground. Sometimes the goods are
piled up carelessly on the stone pave
ment. Hut over each of them la the
awning of coarse cotton cloth, sup
ported on rouirh poles, which the
Mexican huckster Invariably hoe.
Crockery, tinware, emlery and
eooklng utensils form one of the
staples of the market. Tliore Is nl-ts-sy
a dsmnnd for these among th"
poor, and ao the rntero gathers
them In wherever and whenever he
can. knowing that they will find a
ready sole. And it Is not only ti c
poor who buy these things. One
restaurant proprietor In the rit
whose plnee la on of the largcit
thore, admitted that nearly all hi
tabic knives and forks aa well aa the
pots and pans usud in the kitchen
were bought by him in the thieves'
market. He Is a regular visitor to
the place, and not long ago he picked
up a burgnin In the edible line for
hi customers In the shape of n
young pig, which some enterprising
theif hnd gnthered in.
How long the thieves' market will
exist as it doe now there Is none to
tell. It is an old institution, mid to
on thinks of interfering with ii.
Now and then a stranger, hearlnj
of its nature for the first time, won
ders how the city authorities can al
low It to do business ns it does. I'.ut
the native Mexican and the acelim

"Colds cost the Insurance Companies a million dollars a
month.' That is the authoritative statement made by a
leadine insurance journal. Twelve million dollars a year
paid on account of colds. Who gets the money?
-widows and orphans of the men who had colds,
there be a more striking presentation of the fact
that colds kill than this commercial statement in
which the cost of human life is figured in dollars
and cents? But even these figures must be inade
quate to express the final monthly total of the
victims of colds. Thousands of men who die
as the result of colds are not insured. A very
small proportion of women carry life in
surance and these figures do not take
account of the thousands of women who
are sacrificed to colds. ' Colds kill. That
is a thing to remember. Colds kill be
cause many of the most dangerous and
fatal diseases begin with a cold. To neg
lect a cold is to trifle with danger.
Offset this statement that colds cost the
insurance companies a million dollars a
month by another statement; almost every
life represented by that million dollars
could have beeu saved by the timely use of
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
It cures colds, coughs, bronchitis, lung
disease, hemorrhage and conditions generally
which by neglect or unskillful treatment find a
fatal termination in consumption. That these
cures are perfect and lasting is testified to by
thousands of representative men and women, :
including clergymen and physicians.
"I took a severe cold which settled in the nroncliial
tubes," writes Rev. l-'rank Hay, of Nortonville, Jefferson
Co., Kansat "Alter trying medicines labeled "bure
Cure," almost without number, I was led to trv Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. I took two bottles and was cured, and have staved cured. When I think
of the great pain I had to endure, and the terrible cough I had, it seems almost a
miracle that I was so soon relieved.",
" In 189S, one of my daughters was suffering on account of a severe cough, hectic fever, wast
ing of flesh and other symptoms of diseased lungs," writes Rev. Joseph II. l-'espcmian, of Barium
Springs, Iredell Co., N. C. "I promptly gave jier Pr. R. V. I'ierce'a Golden Medical Discovery
with gratifying success, and she now enjoys excellent health. This experience caused me to
recommend Dr. Tierce's remedies to my neighbors, who, without exception, used them with
favorable results. This being true, I hereby heartily endorse your medicines."
For twelve years I waa a sufferer from catarrh and was treated by one of the best physicians
In the state of North Carolina, who said the trouble hail reached my lungs," writes Mr. J. M.
Patton, of Clotho, Transylvania Co., N. C. " I grew worse every day until I tried Dr. Pierce's
medicines. Will say Dr. Tierce's Golden Medical Discovery with one bottleof Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy cured me and to-day I am well and hearty, and I will say further, that my former phy
sician, Dr. W. M. Lyday, recommends Dr. Pierce's medicine to me and to others. I ain sure
your medicines will cure any case of catarrh Uiat exists. I recommend them to all."
"I was troubled with a bad cold, which settled on my lungs and left me with a miserable
cough," writes Mr. Joseph D. Burns, of 318 Iluestis Street, Ithaca, N. Y. "I used two liottles of
'Golden Medical Discovery,' after which ray cough disappeared entirely. I cannot recommend
your medicine too highly. '
These statements are made by representative people. They are reliable state
ments, and those who are guided by them need not swell the list of victims who die
of colds. One of the dangers of a cold, especially as it progresses, is that people
will be content to use some syrup or preparation based on opium, and think they
are safe. Such things are mere palliatives. They soothe and quiet but they do
not retard the progress of disease. Doubtless everyone of the victims of colds
used something with the intention of being cured. But they failed to use the one
thing which would cure them, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It always
helps. It almost always cures. There is no alcohul In the "Discovery." It is a
true tonic, building up the body with solid flesh aud enriching the blood with the
red corpuscles of health.
Do not allow a dealer to palm off on you a substitute for "Golden Medical Dis
covery," claiming it to be "just as good." The record of those who have tried
"medicines almost without number" and found no cure until they used the "Dis
covery," proves there is no other medicine "just as good" for colds, coughs, and
lung diseases.
