After much discussion, Tregonning took it off; but he was determined not to let it be a one- sided bargain. On the principle that one good turn desseves naether, ho induced the good-us- tured artist to introduce him to some of his friends. It WAS owing to Tregouning's sohaming parsistence that Lascelles found himself practically bound to fall in with the anggestion that he should accompany him to the Davenauts; who had been the artist's friends from boyhood.

Lascelles looked in the direction of his young hostess, not for the first time that evening. He would look at Agatha Davenant na long as she would let him. She was dressed in white, with

great clusters of violets among the lace of her gown. James Treganuing was evidently laying himself out to be agreeable; he was beading forward in a most in ratiating manner.

"What ever made you bring him here?" asked Agatha, later in the evening.

Lascellus explained and Agatha laughed. "Poor George, you always do give is to peo- pla if they bulger you enough Yet you look so big and streng. But anyone can do what they like with you."

THE BLOOD is the LIFE of the FLESH

Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills-What they are and what they do. Their Four Principal Ingredients.

It is an established fact that all diseases spring from one source, namely; Impurity of the Blood. Therefore our strength, health, and life depend upon the vital fluid. When the various passages become clogged, and do not act in perfect harmony with the different functions of the body, the blood loses its action, becomes thick, corrupted, and diseased, thus causing pains, sickness, and distress of every name; our strength is exhausted; and if Nature is not assisted in throwing off the stagnant humours, the blood will become choked and cease to act, and thus our light of life will be extinguished. How important, then, that we should keep the various passages of the body free and open, and if assistance is necessary to have at hand that invaluable remedy, Dr. MORSE'S INDIAN ROOT PILLS, manufactured from plants and roots which grow around the mountain cliffs in Nature's garden, for the health, and recovery of diseased man.

One of the roots from which these Pills are made is a SUDORIFIC, which opens the pores of the skin, and assists Nature in throwing out the finer parts of the corruption within.

The second is a plant which is an EXPECTORANT that opens and unclogs the passage to the lungs, and thus in a soothing manner performs its duty by throwing off the phlegm and other humours from the lungs by copious spitting.

:

The third is a DIURETIC, which gives ease and double strength to the Kidneys; thus encouraged, they draw large amounts of impurity from the blood, which is thrown out bountifully by the urinary or water passages, and which could not have been discharged in any other way.

The fourth is a CATHARTIC, and accompanies the other properties of the Pills while engaged in purifying the blood, and the coarser particles of impurity which cannot pass by the other outlets are thus taken up and conveyed off in large quantities by the bowels.

From the foregoing it is shown that Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills not only enter the stomach, but become united with the blood, for they find the way to ery part, and completely root out and cleanse the system from all impurity, and the life of the body, which is the blood becomes perfectly healthy; consequently all sickness and pain are driven from the system, for they cannot remain when the body becomes pure and clean.

Dk. Moss's INDIAN ROOT PILLS are an efficient, rehable, and sale remrzly placed in the maria at price within the reach of all. The Pills being sugar-coated, are pleasant to take, and retain their full mediangal properties. They are paelad in amber-coloured bottles--not in cheap wooden or past chourd boxes and are thus always, fresh and cican, pervus to posture, unaffected by climatic conditions, and do not deteriorate by keeping as all liquid medicines do.
