Brave Eric Iverson and a comrade
hud lx*en absent six days upon the sea,
searching for the lost man arid his son,
and the people of Uedvvood town began
to wonder if they, too, had not gone
down to rise no more, li t the two
men had taken water and j ro’ :sio:.s
with them, and many who knew « f
Erie’s t» !'<lor l.oart • ;ud it xv -ddl long

children up there on the frowning

and steady wind rolling the shining
.swells forever outward. Day and night
it bl-
and i icociing schooner'; hod to
make 1 ng tac’ :. t > ri *ht nn«l left that
they mightenter the little harbor.
Over the hut upon the clii? the, hours
of dread and sharp expre t.iney had
passed, and now the {flooin t‘u»t comes
of settled, certain d ath 'ome I ere- p-
ing on. The mother, torn with gri d
and apprehension through the first
days, could d > not hi ig. Shc'e-m -d to
live day and night t‘i re at the edge of
the precipice, with her hungry « yes
sear ■•’dug the wide, mocking reach» s of
the f.oa.
But now she began to work and wash
again., movin f about much like one in a
saddening dream, Litth' Gai»*, t!:-»ngh
her eyes would sometimes fill with
tears, played with Lan.de and G ibe '
under the trees, happily forgetful 1
of the dark
shallow of sorrow
that lay upon the place. But Carl
and Jlimny felt the cloud <f .sad
ness about them, and much of the
time v\. re silent. Theeld- r boy began
helping his mother as Paul had done,
and .Jimmy kept the children from the
precipice and watched the azure circle
of the horizon for Erie’s sail. It seemed
to the poor mother that the rescuers
would never return, and the blighted
look grew in her face, and her eyes
looked sunken and anxious as she lift 'd
them hour by hour to the wide world of
water.
Other mothers, touched by pity, came
to help the drunkard s broken family,
bringing food and clothing, and a*, the
time passed the. village babbled with
dark prophecies of shipwreck for
Eric, and conjecture as to the fatal
phases of this strange race for life upon
the sea. The men at Eric's wharf
where be had l»e<*n foreman of the
lumber loaders so long looked many
times each day towards the west,
tldnkingb of their absent lender, and
w ives and mothers standing nt the get. s
• >r in the doorways of the cottages upon
the heights about the bay tho»:ght
<»fi ?n of the lonely family over on the
head, ami turned their eyes earnestly
•towards th«' far horizon line.
On th«'seventh day the wind shifted
ami lulled, and just before sunset tho
mother came wearily down the path
and stood looking out upon the shining
flood. Her heart seemed numb with
longing. When would she wake from
*
this dreadful dream?
The children were playing down on
the Band below, and suddenly Carl gave
a shout of joy; the mother looked up,
and there, seeming not three miles
away, was Eric’s boat! She gazed,
trembling from head to foot. Yes, it
was surely Eric’s boat, battered and
with the sails patched ami torn.
Breathlessly she hurried down ami came
among the children, where, whis|M»ring
ami « linging to each other’s hands, they
waited at the water's edge.
Just when the sun ▼» as sinking Eric’s
yacht swept through the mouth of tho
little bay. The children held their
breath, and the mother strained her
pule face outward. Siu* did not sec the
meu waving their hats up at tho
wharves, nor tho wives and mothers
w telling from the yards and doorways
about the bay. The boat was all thvio
was in the world to her. llow slowly
it came! Was Truvo ami her lame ln»y
there? That was Eric’s face, and tlusre
was his brave companion. Wlmt other
object was that lying on a litter in the
bow? The woman shook as with an
ivme, but even while she trembled and
questioned tin* boat rounded on tho
glas .y lh'l«l an I swept up to the land
ing by the head, ami Eric, battered
and w orn, leaped out and made it fast.
But (he woman did not see him; she
wns clinging to the side of the boat ami
straining her eyes down up»n that
mutlled tigure in the bow. Men cam»*
running from the bluff, and the plat-
form w as gently lifted out, ami then'
looking like »loath itself, lay Trave
Armor. elotb« «l in his rags ami the »lying
light t>f the »lav.
The woman threw hers»'If upon her
knees beside him nntl called him plt»v-
ously; tho children crowded forwar»!
w ith f-ightenetl whispers, and tho men
stiswl about her with averted ftu’es. In
a moment, in answer t«» her calling.
Armor’s eyes opene»l xveakly; then with
a kind of cry, he tried to lift himself
toward her, but was all t<x» weak.
“Oh, Trave,” moaned the woman,
“where is l’uul? Where »lid you leave
him?”
“Il»' was lost, Lucy! lie xva . lost! IL'

Th»' woman st a re« I nt him a numiont

survivors have new ci nciv reason to rejoice.
About seven years ago the La Grippe
visited various sections of the country
in.its deadly might scattering disease and
death among its hosts of victims.
Most of those afflicted who escaped
death then, have lived on in suffering,
broken in health and ambition; for the
¡get
after-effects of this disease are dangerous.

A large portion of the survivors have

feeling of oppression in the chest,

of the heart, described as 44 palpitation.”
There is mental anxiety, depression,
blueness of the skin, indicating impaired
circulation of the blood.
The sluggishness of its circulation im
pairs the functions of most of the organs;
the stomach and intestines fail to perform
their work, while the appetite and diges
tion become seriously affected.
This complaint has baffled eminent
physicians and exhausted the results of
pharmacopoeia.
Recently, however, a means for a cure
has been obtained.
Among those who have been restored to
heilth by it is Herman H. Eveler, of 811
W. Main Street, Jelfer.cn, ?4o., a resident
of that city for thirty-eight years, well
known as a successful contractor.
He was one of the victims of the
