G. m Western Canada CHAPTER XXII.--Continued. „ "Yes," he said, gently, "I know he Is dead, Dolores, but after death all things are made straight. He knows now better than he ever could have known from your telling, ifnd I know he has forgotten us." There were sweetness and solemn' lty in the young man's voice as he bent above the beautiful cold face that caused Dora to catch her breath in sudden comprehending of the depth of the kindly heart, as he slowly re­ peated, the touch on the girl's* hands very tender, the light In the loving eyes entering into her very soul: " "There is no death. What peema so to transition: This life of mortal breath , la but a suburb of the life elyslan. Whose portal we call death.' CHAPTER XXIII. "That Girl of JohnsonV , Dora was standing at the well at Dolores' old home with her husband, waiting for Dolores and Charlie Green, who had gone at the girl's request to the opposite mountain. It was a strange freak of Dolores', but with the uBual simple acquiescence in any wish of hers they had gone, and here Dora and her husband were waiting for their return at the girl's old home. But it was not the home of the girl's remembrance. The garden was in fine order and the fence well built; no longer did the gate swing on Its rusty, rickety hinges. The enterpris­ ing chickens were scratching among the shrubs at the back of the house, but not a chicken dared show its face at the front of the neat little house where Jim Lodie and Cinthy lived-- the two young pepole who had always had a kindly thought for its former mistress. Dora was standing at the well watching her husband as he swung the bucket down among the cool shadows, her sweet face, grown more womanly and holding a deeper mean­ ing in every delicate line. She stood on tiptoe to look down and follow the flight of the bucket, but even standing so she scarcely reached to his shoul­ der. She turned her pretty head on one side as a bird might do, and said, with an air that convulsed her hus­ band, though there was a deeper and more tender meaning to her words that he would not let her know he un­ derstood. "The course of true love never did run smooth--and look at that poor bucket, Hal. You are fairly beating the life out of it against the sides of the well." "Poor thing!" said the big fellow, in a tone that implied scant sympathy for the luckless bucket. "You had better say that Charlie is eating his heart out because your cousin will not love him, Dot. Is she never going to be good to him for his faithfulness, dear? He deserves a good life and a good woman, Dora; even your cousin cannot deny that." "Don't talk of Lorie as though she were heartless, Harry," Dora said, solftly, with one of her swift wistful glances up to his face. "Lorie is not like other girls." Tbe other two having passed down out of the settlement, followed by the half scornful eyes of the men at the tavern, crossed the rotten bridge over the river and ascended the opposite mountain slowly among the bent bushes and mysterious mists that held in their hiding the snares of death and the pitfalls that lay in wait­ ing. "Thar go^s thet gal o' Johnsing's," Tom Smith said, with a rough break of laughter in his deep voice. "What en ther world she's goin* ower yander fer beats me holler." 'Goin' ter say her prayer? ower her feyther's grave, I reckon," joined in Hiram Sadler, coarsely, but the an­ swering laughter on Smith's lips never passed them as Jones turned his indig­ nant eyes upon them, removing his pipe from his lips to make reply. 'Et 'pears to me," he said, slowly, with an emphasis that hushed their mirth, "thet ye might hev gained a mite o' respec' an' kindly feelin' arfter all these years sence Johnsing died. a ftrc sufficient to support » population cf 50.000.000 •rO^erf Tbe immigration for lh# past til MO Men phenomenal.

An' ye ken take et as ye will. Thet's all I've got ter speak, an* now my mind's better'n when I sot hyar list'nin' ter yer men talk." A flush came even through the tan of rough Sadler's face, and Smith shuffled his feet upon the gravel and knocked the ashes from his pipe as he said. 8lowly: Thanke 'ee, Jones.

He wasn't so frank spoken u Smith nor perhaps so kind-hearted un­ der his rough speech. Smith said many rough things, but he would have done much also. And young Green, holding Dolores' warm hand closely in his to assist her up the rough, seldom trodden path un­ der the bending boughs and ghastly mists, was thinking of the many years she had lived there in the stolid set­ tlement with not one friend in all the world save, it might be, the rough, un­ spoken kindliness of Jim Lodie and Cinthy. And with his kindly eyes up­ on the grave, beautiful face he could but wonder how such a life could yield such a marvel of womanliness and tenderness. It was a strange freak of hers, no doubt, this wish to once again stand upon the brink of her father's death, but how could he, loving her, dissuade her from a'desire so intense as this was shown by the pleading of the dark eyes? And so they had come, and, standing in the very place where she stood years before, with the misty, mysterious gulf at her feet and the broken glimpses of blue heaven through the floating mist, a touch of grief and pleading and tenderness came over the pure, pale face that caused this man, loving her, to bow his head as one involuntarily bows the head before the chancel with the touch of an indescribable holiness brooding above. And he removed his hat, standing so, with his hand upon her round arm as she stood immova­ ble searching the terrible death below her, as though for the solving of the bitterness of her life, as though for the solving of her own harsh heart- lessness in accusing her father when none other save the man artfcr Tilde and others with wicked Intent, charged him with crime. And there was an agony dawning oyer the pallid face and wide eyes that hushed all other thought for the time in the heart of her friend--all thought save an intense desire and longing to take her into his arms and soothe this agony of bit­ terness and shield her all her life long from any touch of pain, any touch of life's harshness. But he waited si­ lently with bent head, his hand upon her arm, while she fought--and won-- perhaps a struggle that few are called upon to fight, that few would con­ quer. Then the eyes, widened with agony, were lifted from the depths of horror and mystery seeking the brok­ en bits of blue heaven through the mist of the tangled pines upon the height, and an indescribable grandeur and beauty gradually grew upon the lifted face and in the depths of the grave eyes as though the peace sought had been won, and the bitterness of years was buried never again to be resurrected in all the life before her, never again to shadow, as it had done, the love and %fe of this friend beside her. And he, guessing in part the thoughts in her heart, made no move­ ment save a more tender hold upon the steady arm he held. And he waited for her to speak. All her lifo passed her in review as she stood there conscious even though the bitterness of this warm, kindly friend at her side--all the bitterness and pain and humiliation and struggle ,of her life, all tbe thoughts and sor­ rows and struggles, and when at last she turned facing this friend, the change upon her face wao as though an angel had touched her standing there, and life's suffering had passed from her, life's struggles and pain, and left only the touch of heavenly fingers upon the eyes and mouth. One of her slow, radiant smiles broke the sadness of her face as she laid her hand upon the hand on her arm as she said softly, a new intona­ tion even in the low voice: "You mustn't be so good to me, Charlie; I ought to suffer alone some­ times. You cannot realize how much I deserve it." He laid his other hand warmly over this soft hand on his arm, a new light on his face, and in his eyes that caused a sudden drooping of the face in the light of the sunset. "You deserve to suffer!" there was' an Intensity in his voice born from watching the suffering on her face, and from the suffering in his own soul. "You deserve to suffer, Dolores John­ son! If there Is need for your suffer­ ing how much more should I suffer who was equal with you in thinking the unkind thoughts? Come away from this terrible place, Dolores-- leave all these old bitter memories hero in the weird shadows and mists only fit for them, and give your life to my keeping, tell me you love me as 1 love you--give me the answer to the question I asked so long ago, Lorie, under the light of your heavens, un­ der the tender light of your stars ere you left me for your new life and pos­ sible forgetfulriess." She met his eyes gravely and square­ ly, though the new light of tenderness was still in them as she said, slowly, with almost her old slowness: "The happiness of a man's life does not altogether depend on the love of a woman, Charlie." "To a great extent, darling." "But even if I should tell you 'no,' you would be happy after a while, Charlie. Time heals everything." "Not everything, Lorie." "Yes, everything," she said, decid­ edly. "You know that time heals ev­ erything, Charlie--even the old pain of unforgiveness." "Hush!" he said, swiftly, and his hands on both her arms as he held her facing him, were trembling with the wish to hold her free from pain. "You are never to say such things again, dearest. Let those things pass. You have suffered enough for them, and God will lay His great tenderness over them " She was silent a moment, as though reading his inmost thought, the lifted eyes gra.e and searching and tender. Then she turned from the gruesome chasm buried at her feet in its treach­ erous shroud of mist, and said, softly, with « tendtrness that touched him deeply: "God Is very good, Charlie. I can­ not doubt his tenderness. All my life I will leave in his hands as you say-- all my life, past as well as future." Then presently she added: "Let us go, Charlie. I leave here buried in the heart of His mountains the bitterness that has shadowed not only my life but the lives of those who love me. The mountains are His and my life is His." But as they paused for an instant the rotten bridge with the waters sobbing at their feet, black with the slime and smoke of the town, she laid her hand earnestly upon his arm, and lifting her grave face to his, flushing with its new tenderness, she added, softly: "You have been so good to me al­ ways, Charlie I Are you sure--sure you do want nobody but that girl of Johnson's? I come with empty hands, yau know." He smiled into the quivering face and wide, searching eyes and he an- "I am sure I want you." swered her, taking her two hands in his closely as though he would never again let them go from him: "I am sure, sure that I want you, Dolores Johnson, more than any wom­ an in God's beautiful world. Your hands may be empty hands, but they are beautiful in the work they do and have done for others, for even these cruel people here who would have ruined your sweet life, and the woman who, now -your uncle's wife, would have stained her hands forever for the darkening of your heart." And what could she say? And the lights of the sunset were very tender over them as they crossed the bridge and passed up along the road through the settlement where the changes of her working had given an air of neat­ ness and home life and widening of view, with its school and church and kindly touch of neighborllness; and as they passed the tavern where Jones and his comrades still sat with their pipes in lazy enjoyment, the men gave greeting with a new touch of kindli­ ness that went to the heart of the girl who had lived her twenty years among them uncared for and unloved. And the eyes of her lover were bril­ liant with the depth of his thought for her, and his arm was strong to guide and guard her through any pain the future might bring, and never again could this pale, beautiful girl of Johnson's suffer alone or bear her life's burdens outside of the pale of tenderest love. (The End.) COINS WHICH HAD THEIR DAY. Gold Pieces Retired From Circulation for Cause. Recent mention of the disappear­ ance of the $2.50 gold piece from cir­ culation and the premium this coin commands as a curio has set many to rummaging in old pocketbooks and the bottoms of cash boxes and draw­ ers in search of odd or out-of-date coins. Some have found a $2.50 piece, but not many. The $3 piece, once quite common, but always a sort of curiosity, is oftener found, and many have specimens of the little gold coins representing twenty-five cents and fifty cents, which were not minted by the government and prob­ ably have not so much gold in them as they represent. They used to pass as coin, but were never in general circulation, being so easily lost that they soon became scarce. One of tbe handsomest coin relics seen is aiflO gold piece bearing the mint stamp of 1799. It is larger than the present $10 piece. The owner has it hung In a band and wears it as a charm on his watch chain. The owner says he refused an offer of $150 for this relic. The old octagonal $50 pieces were quite common in California in early days, when gold dust was largely used as a circulating medium. They were made of pure gold, and while' they had not the elegant finish of the gold coins minted by the government in these days, many still remember them as the handsomest coin they ever saw. Many people now would consider them handsome - on account of the $50 in them.--Portland Ore- gonian. i Z1 Possibilities of Radium. Mr. Hammer, who was formerly a coadjutor of Edison, has produced with radium a partial paralysis of the fish known as the electric ray, so that it could give no further shocks. He has, with the radium, paralyzed small fish so that they liave been drowned, or at least died. In talking of this ex­ periment, Mr. Hammer called atten­ tion to the experiments of Prof. Curie and others recently in Paris, in which guinea pigs, mice and rabbits were paralyzed and later killed by placing radium near the spinal column. "It is perfectly reasonable to suppose," said Mr. Hammer, "that people's brains might be paralyzed by putting powerful radium near their heads. Bay on a pillow at night, or near the spinal cord, and thus produce paralysis as in the case of the animals." New York's "Diamond Rooms." Only men and women who want to purchase an expensive set of jewels, say $10,00 worth or upward, get a glimpse of the "diamond rooms." as. they are called, in the big New Yoi|t Jewelers' shops. Gems worth less than that usually are kept in show- cases and examined in trays at the counters. But if a customer wants to make a larger purchase, a diamond necklace with pearl pendant, worth from $40,000 to $50,000, for instance, he Is shown into a parlor where he can examine the jewels more at his leisure and see the salesman weigh them on the most carefully balanced scales. These parlors as a rule, are luxuriously but simply furnished, and are convenient to the safes. It is not an unusual thing at this season of the year for a salesman in a well established store to make three or four sales a day, ranging from $12,- 000 to $30,000. A man selecting a scarfpin in a fashionable jeweler's the other day heard one salesman ask another: "Much doing?" And the reply was: "Rather slow. Only forty-two thou­ sand for me, and all in one sale." Bright's Disease Cured. ^ Whitehall, 111., Dec. 7.--A case has been recorded In this place recently, which upsets the theory of many phy­ sicians that Bright's Disease is incur­ able. It la the case of Mr. Lon Manley, whom the doctors told that he could never recover. Mr. Manley tells the story of his case and how he was cured in this way: "I began using Dodd's Kidney Pills after the doctors had given me up. For four or five years I had Kidney, Stomach and Liver Troubles; I was a general wreck and at times I would get down with my back so bad that I could not turn myself in bed for three or four days at a time. "I had several doctors and at last they told me 1 had Bright's Disease, and that I could never get well. I commenced to use Dodd's Kidney Pills &nd I am now able to do all my work and am all right. I most heartily recommend Dodd's Kidney Pills and am very thankful for the cure they worked in my case. They saved my life after the doctors had given me up." Ironing Handkerchiefs.
