It was noticed that on that particular occasion Mr. Johnitons, a regular attendant and pINar of the church I whose crops had miserably failed), was not In attendance.

They started at his voice, and It was not long before the cart came to the next village. The horses, trained by long habit, stopped at the village trader's, and the koopyets himself came out to greet Aksenov. When he caught sight of him stretched out on the floor of the wagon, a stream of blood flowing from hla breast, he called to some moujlks for help, There, grasped tight In Aksenov' hand, they found his knife with Initials carved In the handle.

In these days when so many sudden deaths are reported from Heart Failure and various forms of Heart Disease, It will be good news to many to learn that there la a never falling remedy for every form of Heart Trouble.

"While I was traveling out In Ohio Mat month," said a drummer, "I had occasion to patronize a miserable bne-hors-e railroad which serves sev-Vof the Ohio river towns. We were Jogging along at a distressingly tow rate of speed when of a sudden the train came to a dead stop In the middle of a large meadow. Many of the passengers whose patience had s exhausted asked a brakeman the sauss of the delay. "There's a herd of cows on the track ahead he answered. "In about ten minutes the train got under way again, Jerking convulsively along for about a mile or two, when It again came to a halt That was the limit An old man who waa Bitting near the door turned to the brake-man- , who was plainly annoyed by the many questions, and aald Irritably: al be-om- "'What In thunder la the matter, anyhow V Why, we're caught up to the cows again!' sarcastically explained the brakeman."

The konpyeta or village trader Is a person of the utmost Importance from the moujlk'a point of view. Well, Makar Bemenovitch, the koopyets of the village of Poltvtsee, was no exception to tho rule. He waa a thrifty Ivan. The troughs cutslde hla house, one filled with water, the other with grain, never led an idle life; they were constantly In use by the steeds of the wagoners who traveled from Warsaw to Moscow. Among all the wagoners who passed that way, none was so gay and none Ivan o well liked by Seraenovilch-a- a He waa a Dmltrlevltch Aksenov. d handsome, young fellow, full of fun and always singing. Aksenov passed through Poltvtsee twice a month, sometimes oftener; now ono day, now another, according to hla loads. One morning toward the end of May he and several other customers were drinking tea with Makar Bemenovitch In an Inner room adjoining that In which the koopyets displayed hla stock. One by one the mou-Jlk- a had turned down their tumblers In token that they had really bad enough. One by one they had risen, shaken bands with their host and thanked him for hla hospitality. Finally Bemenovitch and Aksenov remained alone in the room. "Well, friend," aald Bemenovitch, the young fellow straight looking In "I've a secret the eye, to tell thee." Then he dropped hla eyea somewhat, as one abashed, and began stroking Gogol's sleek Ides. I am suing to marry, he announced. "I have decided It la not good for a koopyets to live alone; he gets too hardened, be needs " "A womane softening influences," supplied Aksenov, holding his aides with laughter.

He could tell bet all about her dear M or cow, forsooth. And so, side by side, the two who, for youth and gayety matched each other like the candlesticks on an altar, would talk together. Often, however, they were silent, not speaking, but following the same train of thought. Alas! if I had known," sighed Sergla-Kar- a one day. Yes, if we had known, replied Aksenov. From that moment, without the of another word, Aksenov multiplied his trips; for to him henceforth, as to Bergla-Kara- , the only happy moments were the rare moments they spent with each other. Gossip came to Makar 8emenovltch, of course; but being a man tree from evil thought, who respected bis wife and knew Aksenov for a friend, he chose to muse over other things. It was a holiday, one of thoso Innumerable Russian feast daya, and Semenov Itch had closed his tractir and gore to take a walk in the woods.
