It at once relieves the catarrhal kidneys of the stagnant blood, preventing the escape of seram from the blood.

The letter was written In a formal clerk's hand, dated from the Admiralty, and Bigrned with a hieroglyph which was no doubt the autograph of some high official. It ran as follows: "Dear Sir: The Volunteer has brought intelligence that his majesty's ship Nlobe, seventy-four, has put Into the Cape of Good Hope to refit. She has lost her captain and first lieutenant overboard in a gale, and is reported severely se-verely damaged and short of all stores. The brig Speedwell has been loaded with the necessary material, and will take out an officer to bring the Niobe home. Captaia Truscott, to whom this commission was offered, Is at. the last moment unable to sail. If you are in a position t take his place you will be good enough to start immediately for Mount's Bay, where the Speedwell was to put in n Thursday next. You will, be carried as a free pasesnger to the Cape. wrere you will take over command com-mand of the Nlobe; and for this purpose pur-pose the present letter shall be a good and sufficient authority to the officer In chart-ge to hand her over to you. "In the event of your being unavoidably unavoid-ably prevented from accepting you will be good enough to re-address and forward for-ward this letter to Captain Anderson at Portsmouth without delay." Dick read without understanding anything any-thing beyond the general purport of the letter, but he grasped clearly enough that Camilla was lost to him for many months at least. He roused himself to consider ways and means at once, and his eye fell upon up-on the valise, which the messenger was still holding in his hand. To his surprise he recognized it as his own. "Where did you get this?" he asked. "From your house, sir," replied the man. "There's a uniform and a few things in it his lordship thought you might want, as you wouldn't have time to go back to town." "His lordship? Whom do you mean?" "It was Lord Glamorgan, sir, that gave me the letter." "Ah that explains it." exclaimed Dick. "But how did Lord Glamorgan or you know where I had gone?" "His lordship sent me to you house, sir; and they sent me on to No. 23 Bedford Bed-ford square." ; "And they told you there?" "Yes, sir; they said you'd gone off after aft-er a wagon on the road to Guildford." "Very well," said Dick; "now you had better go and bait your horse. Come to me in the parlor when you're ready to go back, and I'll give you an answer for Lord Glamorgan." Half an hour afterward the man knocked at the door of the room where Dick was writing his acceptance to the Admiralty and his thanks to his patron for this second piece of cruel kindness. He handed them to the messenger with a liberal pourboire, and rang the bell to make arrangements for continuing his own Journey. While he was talking to the host a clatter of hoofs was heard outside the window. "There goes my man," thought Dick; "he'8 a hot rider, it seems. I wish to heaven he had broken his neck on the way here" CHAPTER X. ICK HAD A LONG and hurried journey before him, and he made preparations accordingly for starting in good time on the following follow-ing morning. He also tried once more to find out from the driver of the wagon wag-on where the De Montauts baggage was to be delivered; but the man, though- assured that Dick himself had no longer the time to follow him, stoutly stout-ly refused to give any further answer, and by daybreak next morning he had disappeared, wagon and all, without giving any one a clue to his destination. destina-tion. The sun was setting as Dick left Hel-ston Hel-ston for the last stage of his journey. When he came in sight of Mount's bay there was but one golden bar left In the western sky. Gradually this too faded, and a gray, misty twilight began to creep over the bay. St. Michael's Mourt loomed in sight, weird as the enchanted en-chanted castles of fairyland. In the highest turret glimmered a single light, making the mist more drear and the silence yet more desolate. The opposite shore was wrapped in darkness, but on the broad water between be-tween twinkled here and there tiny restless sparks that Dick knew for the lanterns of the ships at anchor. One of them doubtless was the fate that he must follow. Will-o'-the-wisp or guiding-star, there it gleamed among the rest, with the dim, shivering night around and the fathomless sea beneath. be-neath. A mile or two more, and they came rattling into the streets of Penzance, and Dick arose from his reverie. He inquired in-quired for the Speedwell, and found that she was lying out toward Newlyn, and was to sail at daybreak. Her captain had been ashore -that afternoon, looking out for a passenger who had been expected by the coach an hour before. Dick engaged a boat and ordered supper sup-per at once; by 10 o'clock he was alongside along-side the brig, and half an hour later fast asleep in his berth, forgetting for the present all Journeys whether by land or sea. - He awoke next morning to find the ship already on her way. The captain was waiting for him on deck; a gray, wrinkled man with a short grizzled beard, and a somewhat slouching air about him, Dick thought. "I'm your passenger," Dick said, "and I ought to have reported myself last night, but they told me you were busy, and I was too tired to wait. My name is Estcourt, captain of her majesty's ship Nlobe, when you bring me to her." "Ay, ay," replied the other; "I was in the service myself once; but I wasn't called Worsley then." "Indeed!'., said Dick, and stopped, embarrassed. em-barrassed. The captain was apparently troubled by no such feeling, and went on. "I was broke for a trifle," he said; "a young man's folly. But I don't know that I've been much the worse.i It's a hard service the king's; you make no money in It, and glory's a thing I never took much account of." Dick had nothing to say to this. "Where shall I breakfast?" he asked. "With me," said -the captain. "You'll find me pretty snug below, and that's the main tling in the world, eh? I don't care how many trips I make In the Speedwell, if I'm always as-comfortable and as well paid." .Dick could hardly say that he hoped never to make another voyage In the brig, or that he already wished this one irx a iiT-raa weK --ssa' m was over; but both thoughts came distinctly dis-tinctly into his mind. "It was a stroke o' luck," continued his garrulous companion; "just a stroke o luck. I'd nothing to do for long enough, and was getting a bit down; and then suddenly my lords find themselves them-selves short of a hand, and come running run-ning to me, cap off, and money down on the nail." "That's pretty much what happened to me," said Dick; "they were in a hurry hur-ry and the man before me failed them at the last moment." "Ay, ay," replied the captain; "they must have been in a hurry too, or they'd never have come down on an old dog like me and such a ramshackle crew to carry his majestys stores, let alone his majesty's officers," he added, with an affable grin. "Oh!" said Dick, "what sort of fellows fel-lows have you on board, then?" i "All sorts," answered the captain' "and more than that. There s English! jacics ana n rencn jonnnies, ana a cou-. nip fV Snunlarda onl a nlcoroi"' T natroi. saw such a first-to-hand lot in my life.J They're willing enough, you know, butj ii a tne rummesi crew to De worKing a navy ship." "The brig herself looks to be fast and well found," said Dick, with an approving approv-ing eye on the white canvas bellying aloft. "Oh, she's well enough," replied the captain, carelessly; "there's better and there's worse, no doubt. Let's go down to breakfast." And he led the way below. So the days went by for the most part In cheerful content; only now and then his brow clouded when they spoke a passing ship, and answered the cheers and waving signals of English men and women homeward bound. Sometimes he was even happy for an hour, for the water he sailed was no obscure or unknown sea. From Cor-unna Cor-unna to Cadiz there are names and memories upon its shore that might have stirred the very ship herself, as she swept past them with the flag of empire rippling at her mast-head. On the ninth day they passed St. Vincent. Vin-cent. The sun was setting, and the crags of the cape were sharply relieved against the opposite horizon, all aglow with answering fire. Far beyond them, lost in the vast glimmering distance toward the east, lay a yet more famous headland, and Dick, as he leaned over the bulwarks, and vainly strained his eyes toward Trafalgar, felt his breath quicken with a great Inspiration and his hands clench with the fighting Instinct of his race. But now the Speedwell left the coasts of Europe, and passed on southward into in-to the region of the Islands. The ordinary ordi-nary route to the cape lies outside these groups, the Azores being the only (Stopping (Stop-ping point on the voyage for most English Eng-lish vessels. Estcourt, seeing, that the brig stood in to the east and took a more direct line, concluded at dice that she was to touch at Madeira or the Canary Isles. rt . "No," said the captain, wleh he hazarded this conjecture; "I wish we could put into Funchal or Santn Cruz, they're both pleasant-places, when you've a day or two to spare; tint my orders are to sail straight for Boavista in the Cape Verd Islands. There's some passengers to come aboard the?e." "Passengers!" cried Dick, in astonishment. astonish-ment. "Oh, they won't trouble us lo:tg," said the captain; ."they go off again at As 0. cension. I suppose they're going about looking after the governmert colonies in these parts. When we're rid of them, we shall have a clear run to the Cape. Dick felt by no means so anxious about their departure. He was pleased to think that he would, for some days at any rate, have the monotony of his voyage, enlivened by new companions, and he began to look forward eagerly to the moment when he would no longer be alone at every meal with old Worsley and his flow of demoralized conversation. conversa-tion. A few days more and Madeira was left on the, starboard quarter; they passed through the Canaries, between Teneriffe and Grand Canary, and on April 15th came at last in sight of Boavista, and dropped anchor toward evening in the roads on the northwest of the island. Within a quarter of a mile of them lay a large merchant-vessel with English Eng-lish colors at the top, and Dick was not long in getting a boat lowered and rowing row-ing off to visit her. She turned out to be the Hamilton, from Southampton to Bahia. Her captain greeted Dick cordially, cor-dially, but he was almost alone on board, all the passengers having gone ashore for the day, and half the crew being away In search of water. "I hear," said Dick, "that you've some passengers for us. Who are they?" "Madame Schultz and M. Frochard," replied the captain. "They're Swiss asMonlsts for Ascension brother and sister; and there's a Spanish seaman, named Gildez, who's working out his passage to the Cape." "I'm disappointed to hear that," said-Dick. said-Dick. "I had hoped for one or two fellow-countrymen to talk to. We're deadly dull on the brig." "Oh!" said the captain of the Hamilton, Hamil-ton, laughing, "you'll be lively enough now. Frochard is a first-rate fellow for stories, and speaks .English capitally; and his sister's a real beauty, if only she wouldn't keep to herself so much." The boats were now seen putting off from the shore. When they came near to the ships one of them left the rest and steered for the Speedwell. "There go your passengers," said the captain to Dick. "They said good-by to me before leaving this morning, and now all that remains ia for you to take their baggage over in your boat, if you'll be so good." "Certainly," replied Dick; "I'm ready as soon as it is loaded." "Avast there!" said the captain; "we're not so Inhospitable as that. You must stay and meet the rest of our company at Supper." The remainder of the passengers were just coming on board. Estcourt was introduced in-troduced to them all in turn, and they sat down to supper soon afterward. Phey were a very uninteresting lot; chiefly Portuguese and English men of business, voyaging for mercantile houses with a South American connection. connec-tion. But the crowded table, the hum of conversation, and the continual laughter were a change to Dick, and he delayed his departure till the last moment. mo-ment. When he returned to his own ship he found that his new companions had already gone to their cabins. Their baggage was carried down to them, and finding that they were not likely to appear ap-pear again that night Dick soon afterward after-ward turned in himself. ' - He was already drowsy, when he be-, came slowly conscious that he was listening lis-tening to a noise which seemed to have been going on for an indefinite length of time. Jt was the sound of two voices, whether wheth-er far off or near he could not tell; but the other seemed still like a voice In a dream, utterly remote from the real world, and yet In a way even more real to him than that which preceded and followed it. Over and over again he thought himself him-self on the point of remembrance, but he never quite reached it, and in a short time the bland, soothing tones overcame him like a spell, and he fell into a dreamless sleep. When he awoke next morning the mysterious noises of the night hao passed entirely from his recollection. He hastened on deck, and found that he was the first to arrive there. It was a fresh, breezy morning, and the brig was cutting the waves gallantly as she went southward in long tacks. Four or five miles away to starboard the Hamilton was winging her way to the westward, the courses of the two vessels diverging more and more with every minute. The Islands lay like tiny clouds upon the horizon behind them, and the long, low coast-line of Africa was visible to larboard under a rainy sky. Dick took a careful survey, and bs-gan bs-gan to prophesy to himself about th weather. "Those who are expecting today to be the same as yesterday," he murmured, sententiously, "will be probably a good deal " As he spoke the words died away on his lips and the torpor of helplesa astonishment seized upon him. Ha could not turn his head, he could not move; but he heard behind him a voice that shook the Inmost fibers of his soul. Whether It came from the sky or the sea, if he were mad or sane, living or dead, he knew not, but these were the lovely tones in which Camilla spoke In the old times before he had to begin life anew. The voice came nearer, and still he could not or dared not move. Thsa, suddenly, another voice answered the strange familiar voice of the night before; be-fore; he remembered it In a flash, and knew It- for Colonel de Montaufs. He turned swiftly and was face to face with them. The colonel came toward him at once with outstretched hand, and with a cordial smile upon his face; but Dick passed him and went forward to Camilla. (TO BB CONTINUED.! LEATHER TIRES, Are Said to Be Better for Bicycle Than Rubber. Two. Frenchmen of Rheims have recently re-cently completed an invention which they claim will in a measure revolutionize revolu-tionize the present pneumatic tire. They build their wheels by substituting substitut-ing an outer pneumatic tube made of leather for the rubber tubes now in use. Their invention has been taken up by the Ministry of War, who ars now perfecting the idea with a view to supplying all the military cycles with tires that will not give out easily. The resistance of leather is considerably greater than that of rubber, and it will better stand the pressure from within and the exterior agents of destruction, such as nails, hoops, roots or sharp pebbles. It is not absolutely impenetrable, impene-trable, but it is as least as good as the fine steel band which was experimentally experiment-ally placed between the outer and inner in-ner tubes, and which was pierced by needles and tacks. Leather offers the greatest impenetrability in relation to its thickness without impairing the necessary elasticity. It is further improved im-proved by a preparation which renders it impermeable to water. The leather tire is easily repaired in case of perforation; per-foration; any cobbler can sew it up, and this repair is permanent and not likely to get out of order. Other advantages ad-vantages claimed for the leather tire are greater lightness; it will not get out oft shape as does rubber, and it will not slip on asphalt pavements or wet roads. The new material for the tire seems to meet with great encouragement encourage-ment on the part of the military authorities au-thorities of France. Should it be adopted, adopt-ed, as is expected it will be, there Is a chance for very amusing scenes in the barracks when the cycling orderly will "shine" his pneumatic tire the same as he does his boots for the parade or the inspection. Obeyed Gen. Sickles' Orders. When, after the second battle of Bull Run, General Sickles assumed command com-mand of a division of the Army of the Potomac, he gave an elaborate farewell fare-well dinner to the officers of his old Excelsior brigade. "Now, boys, we will have a family gathering," he said to them, as they assembled In his quarters. quar-ters. Pointing to the table, he continued con-tinued : "Treat it as you would the enemy." As the feast ended, an Irish officer, Captain Byrnes, was discovered by Sickles in the act of stowing away three bottles of champaign in his saddle sad-dle bags. "What are you doing, sir?" gasped the astonished general. "Obeying "Obey-ing orders, sir," replied the captain, iu a firm voice; "you told us to treat that dinner as we would the enemy, and you know, general, what we can't kill, we capture." Singular Suicide. A Paris working shoemaker named Chapeau committed suicide on July 23 for an extraordinary reason. He was found dead in his room, suffocated by the fumes of a charcoal stove. On the table was found a letter, In which he said: "For ten years past I have been saving up to buy a really pretty china table service, which has cost me 115 francs. I had promised to inaugurate it by a dinner to my numerous friends in the neighborhood; but, as I have not the means of providing a good feed I have resolved to die. In order that my friends might not be wholly losers, however, I desire that the service may be distributed as here set down." Then follows a list of the friends among whom he wished the different parts to be divided. A New Bronze.

There had been great apparent grief among those who had been most substantially remembered. re-membered. And some real-for-sure regret re-gret among those who had expected to, but hadn't got a dollar. The funeral was over. The million aire's sons had gathered for confer ence. Among the pet plans of the old man's declining days was a magnificent magnifi-cent palace on whose style of eon struction he had disagreed with every other member of the family. "You will remember," said the eld est son, choking back his emotion wonderfully well, "that it was the last request that we carry out every plan he had made regarding the new house. "Yes," they groaned in chorus. "Well I have arranged that It be done." Thereupon he piled all the plans of his father's architect into a large wastebasket and bore them triumph antly out to the rubbish bin in the back alley. "i may say truthfully that It is a pleasure to carry out the plans, even though we disagreed in their forming,' replied the young man as he returned with the empty basket PROFESSOR IN HARD LUCK. Storm's Early Arrival Spoiled His Chances for Fame. We can recall no rainmaker from the time of Plutarch, or any rain doctor doc-tor of the Indians, or any rain sorcerer of the African tribes, who has played in harder luck than Prof. Meyers has Just encountered in the Adirondacks. He arrived a few days ago with a fine collection of balloons and bombs and got all ready for operations ok Tuesday. On the evening of that day he announced that he should s?er.d up some balloons with powerful bombs with lighted fuses attached, and that rain would follow the explosion almost immediately. As a matter of fact, rain preceded the explosion. Just as the professor was about Jo cut the ropes of his balloon a tremendous thunderstorm came up, advancing with terrific speed and deluging the region with water. You see, nature had "got on" to the professor's little game and forestalled him. But imagine the airs of the professor if he had got his balloons up about fifteen minutes ahead of tha shower!. No rain doctor that the world has known would have been "in it" with him then. New York Commercial Advertiser. One Dog's Intelligence. The lnteligence of animals seems as a rule to be underrated rather than overrated. A dog breeder described the other day a wonderful collie that had belonged to Sir John Lubbock. "This dog," he said, "would, when it was hungry, lay at Its master's feet a card marked 'Food.' When it wa thirsty it would fetch a card marked 'Drink.' When it wanted to take a walk it would bring a card marked 'Out.' Sir John Lubbock trained it to do this trick in less than a month. He put the food card over the dog's food and made it bring the card to him before h$ would allow It to eat, and in the ihatter of drinking and going out he used a like method. The cards were similar in shape and color. Nothing but the writing on them differed. dif-fered.
