He knew that this telephone had a patented arrangement attached to the transmitter to enable one to speak in a lower tone of voice. By the aid of this instrument one could almost speak in a whisper, and yet be distinctly understood by the listener at the other end of the wire. Covering the two call bells on the telephone with his hand, to deaden the sound of their ringing, Larry turned the crank at once, and, taking down the receiver, listened for the reply of the operator at the central office. Give me 279, said Larry, in a low tone of voice, when he received the cheery nello! of the gill at the cenv talking to himself, to kape me Cowld company, as he expressed it. as it is, and late, too, he ought to be ashamed to ask any one to come this distance. Besides, I dont believe he meant to ring for a bye, onyhow, as the annunciator only fluttered a bit, and did not turn In a full call." In act, this circumstance had led the niglrrclerk to suspect that it was not a call, and he was once on the point of telling J.arry not to answer it. It makes me mad to think all this is for Col. Collamore, muttered Larry, the most disagreeable ould curmudgeon on the line. Didnt he have me taken to the station house last summer, charged with stealing his pears, whin Id been to his place to answer a call? Theres no telling how it would have ended, either, if the mounted policeman on the beat had not come in with the very bye from the reform farm that he had caught with a basketful of the colonels pears. An' the colonel niver so much as said, I beg your pardon, Larry, for the hurt to me feelings. As for that, he does not only says t'ea to know me name, andtwenty-Mx, when he sees me, Hello, is that to him and the you? Bad luck of tral fault av mine.

In about half an hour the patrol wagon drove back on its way to the police elation, and inside, securely hand-cuffewere the three They had been completely burglars. surprised, and had surrendered without a struggle. .When the wagon stopped in front cf the office Larry mounted the step and said Theres just one thing I would like to ask you fellys: Who turned in the call for a messenger bye?

In another moment ho distinguished at the Muthe voice of the night-clertual District Messenger office, and the familiar Well? with which that person answered all telephone calls. Misther Fisher, this is Larry, said the boy, in a whisper. , So I observe, answered the night clerk. Sli! Not so loud, if you plaze, cautioned Larry, forgetting that Mr. Fishers voice, however loud, could not be heard beyond the receiver at his own ear. Mishter Fisher, Im at the and theres burglars up stairs. Send word to the police station, quick. Im in the library. Larry spoke slowly and distinctly, and evidently Mr. Fisher took in the whole situation Immediately. The exclamation of surprise which he uttered was half cut off by his closing the telephone suddenly. Larry knew that the would act promptly, and night-clerbe forthcoming at would that help once.

She had been doctored for the ailment for a long time in fact, nearly all her life and had never received anything more than temperary relief. During the last three years her condition grew worse and was aggravated by an affection of the heart. Her health was so poor that she found It almost impossible to perform her household duties. I never believed in proprietary medicines, said Mrs. Itowend, but one day last fall I read an article In a newspaper which told of the cures effected by Dr. Williams Pink Pills, and I decided to try the medicine. Before I had taken the contents of one box I began to feel better. The depressing weakness which had bothered me for so many years bgan to disappear, and the action of the heart at once became stronger and more regular. I took nine boxes of the pills and I am now feeling better than I have for several years, and I have unbounded faith in the medicine.

They are for sale by all druggists, or may be had by mail from Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Eehenectady, N. Y., for 50 cents per box, or six boxes for $2.50. t! r i f 1 1 7 1 1 ' !

A muttered growl from the trio was the only answer, as the wagon drove on. Col. Collamore had spent ths night in the city, and the first news he had of the attempt to rob his house and the failure of the effort was the announcement in the morning papers. In the afternoon he drove home and stopped at the Mutual District office on his way out, where he found Mr. Fisher just coming on duty for the night. The colonel had some conversation with him and then drove on. That evening when Larry came en duty he found a large, square envelope on his table, bearing the Collamore stamp. When he opened it he found a cheek for $50 and the following note: Col. Collamore presents his compliments to Mr. Larry Dolan, and begs to apologize for the unfortunate Incident of last summer, which placed Mr. Larry Dolan In an embarrassing predicament for a short time.
