Martha Heath took my arm as we walked down the steps from the
court-room, and The Man walked by my side. I looked at him, and on
the gentle face I saw not the slightest look of trouble, unrest or
nervous tension. While my nerves were completely unstrung by the last
three days’ experience, he looked as refreshed as if he had just come
from the quiet and restful woods. He was hatless--the same magnificent
poise of the head--calm, serene. He turned on me those wondering gentle
eyes as we stood on the walk for an instant. He did not speak. I noted
the firm chest, the strongly corded neck, the massive head with its
snow-white wavy hair, face large-featured and bronzed by the kiss of
the summer sun, lean of flesh as though chiseled by manly abstinence,
plain, but all stamped with the seal of fearless honesty, the lips
parted showing the strong white teeth, the voice came low but firm,
“If I go away I will come again,”--he turned and was lost in the crowd.
THE END.

BEECHAM’S PILLS
Painless. Effectual.
In many towns where this wonderful medicine has been introduced, and
given a fair trial, it has abolished the family medicine chest, and
been found sufficient to cure nine-tenths of the ordinary complaints
incident to humanity; and when diseases of months and years are
thus removed or palliated in a few days, it is not wonderful that
Beecham’s Pills should maintain their acknowledged popularity in both
hemispheres. =_They cost only 25 cents_=, although the proverbial
expression all over the world is that they are “worth a guinea a box,”
for in truth one box will oftentimes be the means of saving more than
one guinea in doctor’s bills.

The Daylight Lamp.
Central draft, of course. Wick raised and lowered by our wheel system.
It doesn’t stick.
[Illustration]
Wick doesn’t have to be a 1/2 inch above the rim to give a good light.
Fact is, we have never seen a lamp which exposes so little wick as the
“Daylight.”
So the wick doesn’t char.
So the oil burns with a clearer light.

Piano, Banquet and Table sizes. The Daylight Lamp Co., 38 Park Place,
