What we acquire easily, we generally
part_wuh readily. What costs us a
rhyme! or mental effort we, as a rule,
tang on to tenaciously. No one is a
better authority on this question from
an educational stand mint than Mr. F.
S. Lyon, of No. 23 lligh stljcct. Many
a time, when he was in harness, it must
have often puzzled him what to do
with a great many of his pupils. How
to get knowledge into their beads was
the difficulty, but once in, if he had ex—
amined their tbick-skulled receptacles
he would have found solid and substan-,,
tial reasons why it could not get out.
it’s the some with Dean's Kidney Pills.
How to account for the work they do is
a puzzler. but every man who uscs
them always can give solid and sub-
stantial reasons for his estimate of their
merit. Mr. Lyon's opinion is as fol-
lows: "l procured a box of Dean's
Kidney Pills from . Plaistcd's pllsr'
macy lor'nysliglu urinary trouble that
originated from n cold. I caught it at
an entertainment about two years ago.
Dean's Kidney Pills must have brought
about the change. for I am now quite
well.
In these times. when backs are lame.
when almost every other one we meet‘
has now and then. or all the time. a
back that aches or pains—-—“a wcuk
back." "a ball back." a back that makes
their life a misery to bear. it is non-
sense to go on (lay by day in pain and
suffering. 'Tis the easiest lblm! in the
world to give thus plagwlmut back "a
blow" that will settle it. and put in its
place a new one equal to any. It is just
like this: bit at the cause: most back—

, “I am exceeding sorry. air. It is im-
possible that I should pleasure you in
so carnal a diversion, " said the old man
mildly, “and, setting aside the claims
of my holy allies, [know not one paint-
ed toy from t’other. I will ask you to
pardon me. We have ridden far today,"
and with a, courteous gesture he sat
"down upon the settle in the chimney
corner. and leaning.baek upon the ban-
dle of cloaks and saddles olosedbls eyes
and folded his hands.
”And you, sir? Come, dofl the priest-
hood for an hour. Unollalu the old Ad-
.um and give him a run! Trust me, you
will be a world the better for so sell de-
nying an exercise. What. 'tis not so
long since you were in college that your
fingers have forgot the feel of the cards,
so glossy and tickllsb, I’ll warrant. Sit
down, young man, and cut for the deal,
like a saint of sense!” .
The momentary silence that followed
was broken by a tiny click as the cap-
tain cooked a pistol. ,
The bold young man started slightly
at the sound, the recumbent figure on
the settle opmied its eyes, and the two
exchanged a glance so rapid as to be
scarcely perceptible.
”Sir.” answered the young man ear-
nestly, “you touch me nearer than you
know. I am naturally eager for social
divertisements, and, I own, it seems
hard that a single traveler like yourself
must sit and twiddle his thumbs be
cause his fellow guests chance to be
clergyman. Yet see how it is. Before
I was a man grown I gave my word to
my father never again to touch the
cards. ”
“Johnny,” broke in the old gentle-
man, “I give you back your word. Do
as your conscience bids you and call to
remembrance the house of Rimmon,
sonny." _
“Nay." said the captain pleasantly,
“say no more. say no more. I would
not be an (mansion of stumbling to any.
It would be a thousand pitics to risk a
sojourn in hell for the sake of a trum-
pery game of cards, ” and cooking the
other pistol be laid one on either side
of him.
The bold young man, agood dual flus-
tored, drew up a chair and sat down,
wiping the beads of perspiration from
his forehead with his coat cull.
“It becomes my turn to entrant the
pleasure, although, I fear, you will find
me but a (lull opponent, ” he said, with
a ghostly attempt at urbanity. "Home,
sir, let us to't. lmn heartily glad of-
tho opportunity."
“No, no, " said the captain, shuffling
the cards. ‘ ”Y’ure forcing yourself out
of sheer gomi nature. I see it. I will
have no marlblnckcn his record in heav-
en for the!"
“Not. a jet, not a tittlc. ” returned
the other. with an obscquious ulacrity.
“and I take it greatly as a favor you
should play with so rusty an amateur. "
“Well, have it as you will, then, "
said the captain, “and what shall we
call the stakes?"
“Shall We say .lacobuses?" said the
bald young man smoothly.
A doubt cursed tho mind of Captain
.lucobus, and he looked up sharply at
the speaker. lint the bald young man
was laboriously dealing the cards, his
white face creased in a fatuous sniilc,
and the captain could make nothing of
his expression.
“Why, yes. with all my heart.“ re-
turned the captain. “.lncnbuscs. cor-

“On the road? You surprise me! And

brightening smixewlmt at the friendli-
