"We hope that in town the disease willbe confined to isolated cases." he !said; "but in the outlying villages it has -become epidemic. You will see but little of me. I must do all I can. and I would like my ieals at as early an hour as possible."

Theli picturesque region Ussi km V. requems for sketching lies eastwardly from cre. The epidemia rages in the villages to the west. He may return this ev'emaig." He did not come this night or the day following. Arnim was sure thatt if 'any thing had happened sonme word .would have been sent. 31ariainne did ~not suffer a moment's anxiety, but Desiree iaudered restlessly about the garden and terrace, gain often downI the forest path for some glimpse of the absent one. "Comme le jour me dure Passer loin do toi:'' echoed a constant refrain in her heart though the lips were silent. It seemed alreatly months since lie went away. The doctor plunged into his practice with feverish ardor. It came as a God send to divert his thoughts. The viru lent cases in thle town increased rapid ly. For the first time the destroying angel of pestilence had invaded this :peaceful valley. The little hospital soon overflowed. There was urgent need of nurses. Solitary eases of self sacrifice, displayed by contrast the egotism of human ne: ar'e in its appalling nakedness. The general motto was "Let hinm save hinm self who can!" ALt'oad, the doe Itor's energies were taxed to the utmost, his heart wrur by the spec. tacle of human misery: at home he met only anxious faces. M1arianne made no concealment of her terror; Desiree flitted around pale and silent but with a look of str'ange foreboding in her eyes. Ivan i'n his bewilderment broke almost every dish he touched, and turned things upside down. His grand .preservative against disease wvas a draught of whisky. Kathe, the cook. believed every half hour that she had an attack of the murderous fever, and ran howling to her mistress. She wanted the doctor constantly on hand, and did not see why he could not pass his whole timne in the vicinity of hexr kitchen. Why should he run after strangers and leave his own household in the lurch? Arnim, at the incessant entreaty of his cousin, had prescribed drops as a preventive. She scarce al lowed the vial out of her hand. Saeri ficial clouds of smoke arose from every room in the house but the doctor's study. Here, at his express command, the wild waves of Marianne's fumiga tion fever were stayed. "If it allays your fears, do what von will," he said, "only let my study alone." It was remarkable how people of all conditions seeking help besieged the house of thle Russian docit'r The rep utation of his skill, his gin'ss and unselfishness 5pread like wikifirc. Ili> door-baell rang constantly day and night. lie wvas kept so busy that he htad scarce time to think of Ilimiar's absence. W~hen lie did recall it it was with a sense of relief at his distance from Desiree. On the nmorning of the fourth day since his guest's departure hec pro posed sending a mnessen:ger for tidings. "Our artist is no dloubt tilling his sketch-book in somenic eturesquie re gion," lhe added, "and will complain about my running after him as if lhe were a child. But I want to get him As he thus spoke he glanced a Desiree, who had risen noiselessly and wa attenling to the flowers on the win low-hedze. She did not turn as Arniiii left the room with an Au. Wid rsche'! Her reply was scarcely audle Vi. The little head remained b.ned over the iowers. the hands plm-d n.-rvousl at the Ieas es. At'in set ii- tecth. A wild inmatience sur-ed through his breas(t. lie wouldi fain have p) d this tender form to his tortured heart with the diespairing cry: "Have i then lost your confidence? Do you love this stranger better than me? Will you leave the houw'ie tiat once harbored your mother to go with hin?" But he saw that Marianne's eves re-ted upon him with a questioningz ci:Ce. and controlling his emotion. he went silently. A noon a iesseuger appeared say in ':at the doctor would not return una evening. Ussikow was found. B.. :av ill in the village of Grunfeld.

A few iinutes later she stood before Matriainn, who exclaimed: -Good heavens. how yon look! What is . ie matter with you? Take the drops at ee! God forbid that you should bring the typhus into our O. The girl turned impatiently away. "'Nothiing is the matter with me," she said. "but h is stricken with the fever in a neighboring village, and is with out care. Ivan goes to him to-mor row. Not until to-miorrow! 0. my God, how long it will be before morn ing!" --Who, child! Arnim?" '"No. no: Hilmar Us-ikow! I im plore you go to him at once." "What do vor. say, foolish girl? I go to this stranger! I would really like to know why '" "To nurse him, to save him ! Uncle Arnim says that in this sickness. nurs ing does every thing. And just think of it-lie lies in a low musty peasant chambher. amuong strange, rough peo ple. uncared for and alone! Perhaps there is no one to even hand himt a drink in hii thirst and agoyi. You mut go to him. Every monent's de lay brings him nearer death." aI iust go! Aire you mad. Desirce, and why 1. out of all the world?" "Because lie loves you!" cried the i. desparingly. -Because he wishes to make you his wife." For a moment Marianne sent petri fied. Then -hie shrugged her shoulders and answered: "M child, even if Ussikow loved me to distraction-and I have not re marked that lie cares for me in the leat-I would not leave his house 01 hour for his sake. In the firt place, it w ould be highly improper even for his promised wife. and would cause no end of talk; in the second place, 1 mightt get this dreadful fev.er, and perhaps my death. I would, in ne event, accept an offer from this gen-. tlemant; I do not care for him, and I will never leave my cousin. What would lie dlo without me? Now coite to the table child.- It is half an hout past the time. It was thoughtless in Arnint to send the message at this hour. The fish is no doubt spoiled. But how excited you are! French wom en arc terribly hysterica!." "Do von thiink Ussikow will die?" asked the girl, witht quivering lips. "It is moire than likelv it this die e:a5.; but if he.can be saved, nty cousin will save hint. It is a .rare piece ol goo.d luck that he is not sick in our houe., aind that he can not he moved. If 1' -ould, Arnimi would have hint s~r a pt of our protests. Now, da foc .mrself to eat something, childi I f"a all broken up myself, but to go with an emtpty stomach in times like his is riangerous. Lie down after dinner', and this strange miood will pasa. I am glad Ar-nim has not seen vou so." 'I beg you do not tell hint a wiord !" "If you stop this nontseitse and act like a sensible creature I will tell him nothing." Was it "sensible" to wander rest lessly up and down through house and garden, to count the minutes until evening, to stare with glowing eyes into the distancee, to press feverish haitds to a burning forehead, and ask if the pitiless sun would itever go down, to stammter incoherent prayers for one alone-one who was perhaps now toss ing in delirium, and longing vainly for sonte hand to smooth his pillow ? Could Arnim have suspected with what longing Papillon aw'aited hint-a longing not on his owit account-would he htave hastened htome ?

The treat meIt by physicians failed to give relief. In December, 1814, a node or knot the size of a goose egg formed just above the oit of the stomach, which, when lhmed, discharged matter for eight or nine onths. One of these also formed na-cr her arm, and three on her back, whib discharged matter for -. consider able time. For six months of this time she confined to the house, and most of the time in bed. The stomach often re fused food, by rejecting what she had eaten. She used a great deal of medi cine. but failed to be cured. I bought one bottlu of your B. B. B. (made in Atlanta, Ga,) and gave it to her and she commt.nced to improve. I then bought and gave her three bottles more, andtshe continued to improve, and in two months' time her cough had ceased, her constitution st:engthened, appetite and digestion gCod. all discharges ceased, Lodes or knots disappeared and she went to work apparently healthy and fattened up greatly. :S woman had a married sister of near the satae age who was affected in precisely the same way and about the same time. The had nodes or i:uots on pit of her stomach, back, etc. She did not take any B. B. B. and the node on her stomach ate through to the cavity. She continued on the decline and wasted away, and finaliv died. These were two terrible cases of blood poison-one used B. B. D. and was speedily cured-the other did not use it and died. It is most assuredly a most wonderful blood puritier. I refer to mracrhant of thi town Yonrs truly, W. T. Rom.Nsos. A SHERIFF RELEASED.
