Her belief in his innocence and exact truth of Ids story (and he was flqgpfident she did believe him) could make no difference in tills conclusion. .Wtule lie was regarded openly or in dfark corners or beside the humblest •reside as a possilde criminal neither Mr. Sutherland uor her father nor Ids •wu heart even would allow him to •ffer her anything but a friend’s grati tude or win from her anything but a neighbor's sympathy, yet in bidding irpodby to larger hopes and more impor tant desires he parted with the better part of ids heart and the only solace remaining in this world for the bound less griefs and tragic experiences of his still young life. He had learned to love through suffering, only to realize that 'the very nature of his suffering forbade him to indulge iu love. And this seemed, even in this hour of public justilicatiou. a final judgment, lie had told his story ami been for the moment believed, but what was there In his life, what was there iu the facts as witnessed by others, what was there in his mother’s letters and the revela tion of their secret relationship to cor roborate his assertions or to prove that her hand and not his had held the weapon when the life blood gushed from her devoted breast? Nothing, nothing; only his word to stand against all human probabilities and natural in ference. only his word and the gener ous nature of the great hearted woman who had thus perished. Though a dozen of his fellow citizens had by their verdict professed their belief in bis word and given him the benefit of a doubt involving his life as well as his honor, he ns well as they knew that neither the police nor the general pub lic were given to sentimentality and that the question of his guilt still lay open and must remain so till his dying day, for from the nature of things no proof of the truth was probable. Batsy being dead, only Hod and his own heart could know that the facts of that awful half hour were as he had told them. Had Hod in his justice removed in this striking way his only witness as a punishment for his sins and his mad Indulgence in acts so little short of ♦prime as to partake of its guilt and jnerit its obloquy? He was asking himself this question as lie bent to fasten the gate. His fa ther had passed in. The carriage had driven off, and the road was almost solitary, but not quite. As he leaned his arm over the gate and turned to take a final glance down the hillside he rsaw with what feelings no one will over know the light figure of Agues ad vancing on the arm of her father. He would have drawn back, but a better impulse intervened, uml he stood his ground. Mr. Ilalllday, who walked v ’-y close to Agnes, cast her an ad- titjry glance, which Frederick was .not .'aw in interpreting, then stopped a-':m inntly, perhaps because he saw ;iit falter, perhaps because he knew Chat an interview ln-tween these two 'was unavoidable and had best be - joickly over. ’ Frederick found ids voice first “Agnes,” said he, "I am glad of this opportunity for expressing my grati tude. You have acted like a friend and uave earned my eternal consideration, c-v u if we never speak agpln." There was a momentary silence. Her Iheart, which liml . under Ida greeting, rose again. lie,” tyts, humid ttfith feeling, sought ills face. ' “Why do you speak like timt?" said •h«s “Why shouldn’t we meet?

But there are l\ >v Agin-ses In the world. 1’eople In general will not acquit me. iiiuJ ii tlici'c was only one person who doubted”—.Mr. iialiiday began to look relieved—“1 would fail to giv® any promise of tbe new life you hope to see me lead if I allowed the shadow under which I undoubtedly rest to fall iu the remotest way across yours. You ami 1 have been friends and will con tinue such, but we will hold little iu- tercourse iu future, hard as 1 find it to say so. Does not Mr. Iialiiday corn- aider this right? As your father he- must.” Agnes’ eyes, leaving Frederick’s for a moment, sought her father’s. Alas, there was no mistaking their language. Sighing deeply, she again hung her head. "Too much care for people's opin ion." she murmured, “and too little for what is best and noblest iu us. I do not recognize tin* necessity of a fare well between r.s any more than I rec- otr'iiz* ‘hat any on * who <eiTy ar- 1 heard you today can believe in your guilt.” "But there are so many who did not heft) find sec me.

Inn n m i* Completely recognized does r, >t tail tor such guardianship.” The slight frame of the young girl bending so innocently toward him shuddered involuntarily at this, and her eyes, frightened and flashing, swept over the arbor before returning to his face. “if there is a watcher there and if such a fact proves you to be in danger of arrest for a crime you never com mitted. then it behooves your friend* to show where they stand in this mut ter and by lending their sympathy give you courage and power to meet the trials la-fore you.” “Not when they are young girls.” murmured Frederick, and. easting a glance at Mr. Iialiiday, he stepped softly back. Agnes flushed and yielded to her fa ther’s gentle pressure. 11 ■ • :t a i a • . > ! lumiUtoct.il" ,-upl) ul i* *. * » * * # * T'i-c -ami i' r in the (la-', when FrcdcrU!. cu.' h the villay under the gi:ardkitisKp f lie poi-e . w:> •- inde scribable.

Fredprick’s arrest had been* conduct ed so quietly that no hint of, the mat ter reached the village beforo the next morning. Then the whole town broke Into uproar, and business was not only suspended, but the streets and docks overflowed with gesticulating men and excited women, carrying on in ewery corner and across innumerable door steps the endless debate which such an action on the part of the police aeces- sarily opened. But the most agitated face, though the stillest tongue, was not to be seen In town that morning, but In a little cottage on an arid hill slope overlook ing the sea. Here Sweetwater sat and communed with his great monitor, the ocean, and only from his flashing eye and the firm set of his lips could the mother of Sweetwater see that the crisis of her son’s life was rapidly ap proaching and that on the outcome of this long brooding rested not only his own self satisfaction, but the interests of the man most dear to them. Suddenly from that far horizon upon which Sweetwater’s eye rested with a look that was almost a demand came an answer that flushed him with a hope as great as It was unexpected. Bounding to his feet, he confronted his mother with eager eyes and out stretched hand. “Give me money; all the money we have In the house. I have an Idea that called theebwell. They, were; “HJelp!

The Inspiration came from the sea, and the sea, you know, la my oec- ond mother.” What this inspiration waa be did not Almost everybody who reads the news papers is sure to know of the wonderful cures made by Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy. It is the great medi cal triumph of the nine teenth century; dis covered after years of scientific research by Dr. Kilmer, the emi nent kidney and blad der specialist, and is wonderfully successful in promptly curing lame back, kidney, bladder, uric acid trou bles and Bright's Disease, which is the worst form of kidney trouble. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is not rec- ommendedfor everything but if you have kid ney, liver or bladder trouble it will be found Just the remedy you need. It has been tested in so many ways, in hospital work, in private pract'ce, among the helpless too poor to pur chase relief and has proved so successful in every case that a special arrangement has been made by which all readers of this paper ! who have not already tried it, may have a sampu bottle sent free by mail, also a book tclii.t" more s bout S.vamp-Root and hew to find out if you have, kidney or bladder t ouble.
