Anfl Pollv's golden head was
dizzy
with the thuuderi of omnibus vvheelad
and the rattle and thunder of elevated
v:iilw!ivs. and the succession of brilliant
things in the shop windows and Polly4
sat holding on to ner parcels 111 me
great echoing depot, and wondering
why everybody was in such a liurry.
For the express! train was just going
out, and Polly arid Miss Jones, the vil
lage dressmakej) who had come with
her to help select the important dress,
were obliged to; wait fifteen minutes
for the way train, which condescended
to stop at "Whip-Jpoor-will Glen." where
Polly lived. '
She was a pretty little primrose of a
maiden, with iarge, wistful eyes, lovely
vellow hair, anqi cheeks as pink as a
daisy, while Mis$ Jones, who sat beside
her, was straight and stiff and upright
a id wrinkled as became a single wo
man of sixty. - r - - - -And
instill PiiJlv was wondering if
there was no end to the stream of hu-1
inanity flowing: througtnewide open
depot gate.' a tallLhandsome gentleman,
with a dark complexion and dark Span
ish eyes, came jn wjth TVlittle baby in
his arms. -
"Stewardess," said he to a respectable
looking quadroon, with a scarlet silk
handkerchief twisted picturesquely
around her head, who was dusting the
window sash, "Ifam going out in the
Chicago express and I have forgotten
a message which must be telegraphed
to my place of business at once ; will
you be good enough to take this child a
ininute, until".'
But the stewardess hastily drew back.
"Xo, sah, ef you please," said she "1
heard o' many cases vhere 'spectable
women was left ; wid' strange children
on their hands jist dis-a-way."
Instinctively Polly Pembroke held
out her arms.
"Let me take the bauyaE," 'said' nheA
coloring all over with" pretty eagerness,
"1 11 hold it tor yott 1 iiimren are al
ways good with.me,"
The stranger iloffed his hat courte
ously. "I am infinitely obliged to you," he
said, "and I'll trouble you no longer
than I can help."
"Polly! Polly! are you going mad?"
whispered Miss Jones, pulling 1 lie sleeve
of the girl's dress.
But Polly paid no heed to her.
"Suppose that gentleman shouldn't
come back ?" cried Miss .Tone?, elevat
ing both hands.
"He will." said Polly, gently rocking
the little mite oil her knee, "Oh, look,
Miss Jones! Isn't it pretty ? I declare
it's laughing!"
"Prettv!" groaned Miss Jones, rolling
her whitey-blue eyes skyward, "Polly
Pembroke", I do believe you've taken
leave of your senses! There is the bell ;
the gates are closed!"
"What of it V" said Polly.
"The Chicago "express has gone!"
"Well," said Polly, "what of that?"
"Child, don't you comprehend? Your
line gentleman Vas going in the Chica
go express," cried Miss Jones.
"I suppose he has missed the train,"
said Polly, quietlv.
"Not her sniffed Miss Jones. "He
has slunk quietly in by another way,
and is laughing in his sleeve at you and
your folly this very moment."
"Xonsense!" said Poll.
But she looked a little-disturbed, nev
ertheless, and glanced rather anxiously
at Ihe door through which the tall gen
tleman with the Spanish eyes had dis
appeared. "Come," said Miss Jones, jumping up
briskly, and gathering her parcels in
her hand. "There's the bell for our
train."
"But I can't go and leave the child,"
cried Polly.
"Humph!" snorted Miss Jones, "are
you going to stop here all night with
it?"
"But what shall I do?" said Polly, be
ginning to be a little bewildered and
frightened. "Perhaps, Miss Jones, we
had better wait until the next train."
"And not get home until 9 o'clock at
night?" croaked Miss Jones.
"I don't see what else we can do."
But the trains came and went, and
still no one appeared to claim the baby.
Miss Jones grew desperate.
"Polly Pembroke," said she, "I've no
patience with you for getting us into
this scrape. What do you suppose is to
be the end of it all ?"
Polly rose quietly.
"I am going to take the child
with us," she said.
home
"Polly !"
"I am !" reiterated the girl. "Poor lit
tle helpless innocent ! What else can we
do?" ii
"Let it be sent to the House of Ref
uge or to the poor house, or some such
place P screamed Miss Jones.
"With those eyes?" said Polly, look
ing down into the .tender, pleading
orbs. "Never! It will be all right 1 am
sure, Miss Jones. All this is only a mis
take. Stewardess," to the suspicious
quadroon, who had taken care to keep
at a safe distance all the while, "here is
my address. Give rt to the gentleman
when he comes back."
' Yea," said the woman, pursing up
her lips- "But it's my private 'pinion
as nobody won't see hide nor hair of
him again."
So Polly Pembroke brought home,
net only a blue silk dress, but a dark
eyed baby into the bargain.
"Child, said Deacon Pembroke, "I
can't blame you for doing a charitable
action, but I ra afraid you've taken &
terrible charge upon yourself." . j
"Don't fret, fatherdon't fret," said
Mrs. Pembroke, who was a cheery lit
tle body, with an invincible habit of
looking on the sunny side of every
thing, "It seems a nice, he;Uthy child
enough, and I dare say it will soon be
called for. Besides, don't the Good
Book say that whoever gives one of the
Lord's little ones' even a cup of cold wa
ter, in His namej shall not be without a:
reward?'" ;
And so the clays passed by, and the
weeks, and even Polly Pembroke, the
most trusting of mortals, began to
think that she had been the victim of a
conspiracy, and hat she was destined
to bear the wholei-respohsibility of the
mutt njuneiesa nie.

Dear Sir Since several years I have got a sore
and very painful foot I had some physicians, bat
they couldn't cure me. Now I have heard of your
Yegetlne from a, lady who was sick for a lone time,
and became an well from your Vegetlne, and I
went and bought me one bottle of Vegetlne; and
after I had used one bottle, the pain left me, and
It began to heal,' and then I bought one other bot

SAFE AND SURE.
Mr. H. R. Stevens :
- In 1872 your Vegetlne was reoommeudpdto me,
and yielding to the persuasions of a friend,
I consented lb try it At the time I was suffering
from general debility and nervous prostration,
superinduced by overwork and irregular habits.
Its wonderful strengthening and curative proper
ties seemed to affect my debilitated system from
the first dose; and under its persistent use I rapid
ly recovered, gaining more than usual health and
good feeling. Since then I have not hesitated to
give Vegetlne my most unqualified indorsement,
as being a safe, sure and powerful agent in promot
ing health and restoring the wasted system to new
life and energy. VegeUne is the only medicine I
use; and as long as I live I never expect to find a
better: Tours truly, W. H. CLARK,

PAIN in the right side, under the

on the left side ; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The stom
ach is affected with loss of appetite
and "SicTchess f the bowels in general
are costive sometimes alternative with

accompanied with a dull, heavy sen
sation in the back part. There is gen
erally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with. a painful sensation
of having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight,
dry cough is sometimes an attendant.
The patient complains of weariness
and debility ; he is easily startled, his
feet are cold or burning, and he com

he is satisfied that exercise would be
