"We merely print Che facts."
"Facts."' Mrs. Nolan cried. "That
paper upsets me for the whole day
every morning."
"There now. mother; 1 guess the pa
per's all right." ventured .Nolan sooth
ingly.
"You've got another guess. Michael.
Nobody reads it but shopgirls, who
spend a penu.v for the Advance and
another for a stick of gum and hang
on to a strap with one hand aud the
Advance with the other while they're
waggling their Jaws all the way dowu
to work. That's all that reads it!"
She paused for breath, then went ou.
"Aud I must say I think it's scandal
ous the way you attack Judge Bar
telmy every little while."
"Yes." contributed Phyllis, "and his
daughter's oue of the most exclusive
and sought after girls In New York.
She's the only oue of her set who has
been at all nice to inc. Isn't that so.
mamma?"
"Yes. and why the paper should go
for her father just as it does for ev
ery other prominent man in town 1

funny that such things should appear
in the Advance after what she's done
for us."
"Oh." suggested Brand, thinking to
soothe his employer's wife, "she prob
ably knows that you have absolutely
nothing to do with the policy of the
Advance!"
"Is that so?" ejaculated Mrs. Nolan
indignantly. "They certainly are very
kind hearted people to act the way
they do In the face of that paper."
"Judge Bartelmy Is lirst and last a
politician." explained Brand.
Michael Nolan bent forward intently.
The conversation had now reached a
point where he realized an issue of vi
tal Importance to himself and to the
Advance had been touched on.
"Well. I suppose he has been cod
dling up to us a little. " be began, then
paused.
Hraud drew a deep breath, stood up
erect In the middle ot the drawing
room and da.-lugl.v explained (he situa

"Barteluiy handles people better than

"Well?" asked Mrs. Nolan ominously.
Brand found the courage to complete
the sentence.
"His only hope lies In an appeul? to j
your family's soeial desires"? Phyllis
rose from her seat, her cheeks red
with anger-"and that's the only rea

spoken the truth.
CHAPTER VI.
O LAN faced Brand.
"Ootne, come. Wheeler," he
said. "Let's drop the sub
ject now."
"Mr. Brand, you are forgetting your
place." contributed Phyllis.
"Michael." Insisted Mrs. Nolan, "are
you going to let this young man ruin '
the whole of us? 1. for one. am glad
Judge Bartelmy has taken us up. and
if It wasn't for the way Mr. Brand
runs wild with tbat paper"? her voice
broke? "others might." She crossed
to the door at the left. "Ilero we'vo
squandered money right and left and
nobody would have anything to do
with us. 1 declare I was happier
poor. At least when I asked anybody
to eat then they came. Look at that
table in there"? she pointed? "groan
iug with good things to eat, aud
there's $1U0 for hothouse grapes, and
nobody's touched "em!" She picked
up u bunch of grapes from a stand
and began to eut them.
"Mother," laughed the husband good
naturedly. "I've seen you get away
with three bunches all by yourself."
"Well, 1 felt It was my duty uot to
let them go to waste." She burst into
tears. "Come on. Phyllis." she man
aged to ray. and the heartbroken
mother and daughter weut from the
room.
"You mustn't mind what mother
says," Nolan said to Brand. "She's
been klud o' lonely since she came
back to New York."
The editor's heart swelled with sym
pathy for the woman whoso ambitions
for herself aud her daughter had
caused the bitterest pain that Injured
pride can give, lie saw that it would
be dittlcult for her to learu that social
positiou In a big city can be won only
by skillful maneuvering, the ability to
do which Mrs. Nolan apparently did
not possess.
"Oh. I understand!" he answered
feelingly.
Brand and Nolan went into the li
brary to smoke, llardly had they dis
appeared when Pitcher entered the
drawing room as an escort for Judge
Bartelmy and his daughter Judith.
Brand had uot erred a tew minutes
previous when In the same room be
had pronounced the Judge to be the
best "handler or people" in the city.
The conversation which ensued be
tween tbe Jurist and his daughter as
they awaited their hostess well illus
trated his reasons for accepting, with
his daughter. Mrs. Nolan's Invitation.
When Pitcher had goue In search of
Mrs. Nolan It was the girl who lirst
spoke.
"Father." she said. "I want you to
know tbat I've beeu to tive teas this
'This doesn't come under the head o'
social duties
afternoon. I'm doing you a great fa
vor to come to this one."
"Yes. my dear; 1 appreciate it. but
Nocial duties"?
The girl laughed shortly.
"Now, this doesn't come under the
head of social duties."
"Oh. yes." the Judge answered
quickly. "If you view society In its
broader sense. Beyond your little
world Is a larger one where caste Is of
small consequence and where all men
should be of service to each other."
"But the Nolans? they certainly
haven't been of service to you?" ques
tioned the girl.
Fie glanced sharply at Judith.
"But 1 wish them to oe. uuu wew
getting on ? we're getting on."
"Their puper Keeps going for you
just as much as ever, father, i don't
suppose one ought to mind It, but i
do."
"Judith. Nolans nave lived in every
age lu every country." pronounced the
Jurist. "He's a composite ot anarchist
and autocrat, Eveutually the autocrat

and be attacks me. No consequence
whatever, but I'm here in defense ot

Juditb. I kuow the breed. 1 know bow

Judith became enthusiastic.
"Father. I believe you would have
been a great prime minister In the old
days!"

tbe past."
??Oh.'* she admitted, "you never fall
to Illustrate your point, whatever It
Is!"
"Just Imagine," said her father,
"what one of those old fellows would
do In this case."
"Yes, 1 suppose you're right, and In
the end you'll make these people set
how wrong they've been about you."
.. "Oh. yes!" he went on confidently.
"As they become accustomed to their
prosperity you will tlud thnt ibe deuio

fied and ultimately vanish." lie seat
ed himself near bis daughter.
?That would be a terrible blow for
Wheeler, wouldn't it?" she suddenly
asked.
"Wheeler: Oh. Wheeler! He's an
entirely different type? tbe Idealist,
the fanatical Idealist. I'm sorry. 1
always liked tbe boy. His heart's all
right, but Ills head's all wrong, and 1
hope he's merely passing through a
phase."
"1 don't think you quite understand
Wheeler, father." responded Judith,
rising
He took hold or the girl's bands.
"Oh. yes. I do! Just now he has lost
himself in a labyrinth, aud It will take
an Ariadne to lead bltn out. 1 believe
the right woman might bring blm to
reason." lie paused signitieautly. Ju
dith lowered ber eyes from his. "1
forgive him any annoyance he may
have caused me. and i hope you will
forgive him loo. I want you and
Wheeler to be friends again aud. like
tbe princess in the fairy stories, live
happily ever arter." He patted ber
foudly on the shoulder.
Mrs. Nolan entered the room and.
aglow with excitement, greeted her
guests.
"Judge Bartelmy, 1 hope you haven't
been waiting loug?" she Inquired anx
iously.
"Not at all."
"It Is s<> good of yon to come."
"Oh. 1 wouldn't permit anything to
keep me away!" he replied. "I've Just
had the pleasure of adjourning a rath
er important conference to be here."
This confession tilled the fluttering
heart of Mrs. Nolan with pure ecstasy.
She could barely contain herself as she
in turn greeted Judith Bartelmy.
Pitcher announced another name
that appeared In the social register.
"Mr. Dupuy," he announced. He had
come to keep his appointment with
Nolan.
"How do you do. Mr. Dupuy?" greet
ed the hostess, shaking bauds warmly
with him. "Here's Judge Bartelmy.
lie's just adjourned a most important
conference to come to our tea. i'itch
er. fell Mr. Nolan the Judge and Mr.
Dupuy are waiting. Say tbe Judge lias
just adjourned his court to come. Miss
Bartelmy. Phyllis will be so delighted
to see you." She grasped Judith's
arm and led her to a door, speaking
rapidly as she did so. "Phyllis wants
to show you her uew gown Qulnlan
brought over from Paris. Very smart
effect, but $-150. and you could hold It
in the palm of your two hands? a
I rag!"
"An amusing character, our hostess,
commented Bartelmy dryly to Dupuy.
"Yes; she seems very appreciative of
your daughter's visit."
"Well." decisively, "she certainly
ought to be."
"I sup|)ose we shall see It in the Ad
vance tomorrow." suggested Dupuy.
"Oh. of course!" Bartelmy laughed
1 amusedly.

But for thut silent n;onltrcs?

Beneath her shroud tired Nature sleeps,
Till up, to meet tho dawn, she leaps,
Hope, strength and gladness born anew.

To thoroughly know the virtues of a

three years ago, has been permanent
and I, therefore, cheerfully confirm
the public statement I gave in favor
of the remedy at that time. For two

my kidneys were so weak that the

making my condition worse. Doan's
