There is more Catarrh i'i this sec
tion of tlio country than :i!l other dis
cases put together, and until the
last few years was suppose d to be in
curable. For a great many years doe
tors pronounced It a local disease and
prescribed local remedies, and by ? ?>??
stantly failing to cur.- with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to Ik- a ? n.stitu
tiouai disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca
larrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo. Oiiio, is the
only constitutional cure on the mar
ket. It is taken internally in dost s
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It
acts directly on the blood and mucous

3 HOW SHE WON SUCCESS ?
^ ON THE STAGE. |
[Copyright, lifcw. b>* American I*rcaa Aaao
Ilelolsis Gamier was playing with a
ra risiau dramatic company at Geneva.
Mile. Garnler was by no means the
leading woman. Iudecd, her part was
lady's maid, and all she had to Kay
during the performance was. "I think
the count very handsome." Nor was
.Mile. Gamier pretty nor distinguished
looking. Indeed, she was a very or
dinary girl of twenty, though it must
l>c confessed a very good one.
On the last night that the company
performed at Geneva Mile. Gamier
was surprised at receiving a card on
which was engraved the name "Cas
par Pearson." There was also writ
ten in pencil. "I shall esteem it a fa
vor If Mile. Gamier will permit me to
thank her In person for the pleasure
she has given me."
Not only was mademoiselle, but the
rest of the company, astonished. None
of the principal actresses had received
such a compliment. Mile. Gamier at
once became an Important personage
In their eyes. Caspar rearson was ad
mitted behind the scenes, lie appear
ed to be a young man of respectabil
ity. lie was deferential to the lady, to
whom he had taken a fancy, and after
the play his father, who was In the
theater, sent mademoiselle an Invita
tion to sup at the famll.i home.
The father, the mother and the sou
united In praising the young actress'
bearing on the stage, the well modu
lated tone In which she had sjMd.cn
the few lines assigned her ami agreed
that she should have a better part,
predicting a final triumph f.>r her In
her art. Pearson pere offered to give
her an introduction to lils brother in
Paris, who, he said, had great Ititlu
enee with the press and theatrical
managers. When she left the house
for her hotel young Pearson accompa
nied her In the family carriage, lie
asked permission to call in the morn
ing and see her to the train.
The next morning when Caspar Pear
son drove up to the hotel the eyes
of every member of the company were
leveled at him. He brought a large
bouquet of flowers, which he begged
mademoiselle to accept. Informing her
at the same time that his father had
telegraphed to "Uncle Gaston," In
Paris, who would meet her at the sta
tlon. take her home to dinner and con
sult as to a plan for her advancement
In her profession.
When they r ichcd Paris ? gen
?Ionian advanced and asked which was
Mile. Gamier. and when she was point
ed out to him took her t<> his carriage,
and they were driven to his home
Durli '-r the ride he talked much about
the family estate in Geneva.
"And those flowers." he said. "1
would know at once they came from
the gardens of our old homestead. Do
you know, 1 laid out tlio-e gardens iny
self years ago."
"Please accept them," said mademol
selle. "since they are so precious to
you."
Uncle Gaston formed many plans
for MUe. f Jnrnler's pursuit of her pro
come to a head, hut the attention she
had received l?>re fruit. The manager
of the company advanced her rapidly,
and it was not lone before she had ev
ery opportunity. Her talents as an ac
tress wore mediocre, but she found a
part that she uld play admirably,
and this gained her great success.
S<ion after her experience in Geneva
young l'as| ar P. arson went to Paris
and < ailed upon her. She was very
grateful to him for having been the
motive power in starting her upward
in her profession, and after a time he
began to show a great partiality for
her. Uncle tiaslon heard of his neph
ew's attentions and wrote his brother
of them. The consequence was a visit
to Paris of the youngster's father and
a violent scene between father and
son in presence of the actress, the fa
ther threatening to disinherit the son
unless he gave up his love. The son
then threatened to denounce Ills fa
ther and Uls uncle for souie offense he
did not state, and consent was Anally
reluctantly given.
Mile, tiaruier, now Mine. Pearson,
continued to act under her former
aamc. It was not till some time after
her marriage that she reaped the full
beueilt of the start she had received
and which she < onsidercd entirely due
to the admiration her husband had
conceived for her at tirst sight. Hut
whenever she would give demonstra
tive evidence of her gratitude her hus
band would turn away with displeas
ure aud l>eg her not to mention the
subject again. One day she asked
him:
"Caspar, what did you mean by
threatening to denounce your father
ajal uncle when they opposed our mar
rlage?"
Pearson thought awhile, then said:
?1 have a confession to make. Do
you remember the immense bouquet 1
gave you the morning of your depar
ture from Geneva?"
"Yes. It was beautiful."
"It contained $10,000 worth of watch
springs."
"Watch springs?"
"Yes The whole scheme was to
make a smuggler of you. It succeeded
admirably. My admiration and love
for you came afterward."
"Oh, Caspar!"
"Do not condemn me till I have told
you all. The duty on Geneva watch
springs was very large. When at my
father's death 1 Inherited ills share of
the business I hunted up the.entry of
the proflt on those you took In duty
free and placed an equal sum at Inter
est. The total I have put in a soli
taire diamond for you. nere It Is."
"Caspar. I forgive you."

Miss Markland never ran up against
(tone walls. If she wished to fro
whore the pntli was difficult she
smiled, and, presto, there were flowers
lor her to step on. If it was neces
sary to plan she could plan admirably,
ludeed, she was very re- >urccful.
Miss Markland was looking for a
husband. Not that sin- was devoid
uf offers. Indeed, tier nwin business In
life seemed to lie to avoid proposal
She f?li that it was time for her to
marry. and she had not .net the man
she wanted. She scouted those : he

foreigners, none of whom appealed to
her. At last In France six" found the
man she wanted In an American. *

suitors she had declined
Professor Mikleman was an ar
chaeologist. It may Iv thought that
Miss Markland wai ? <1 hii . on account
of the Ideality of the work that al?
sorlKsl him. Not at all. She was not
Ideal or intellectual and considered
the professor a mere digger. The rea
son she coveted him was liecnusc she
had no attraction for him. while a hip
ls>ne 2,000 years old. a piece of broken
pottery, a coin >>> worn that onh the
nose of some dead barbarian king
could be discovered on It. were enough
to make him dance In wild delight.
Miss Markland. tactful, sympathetic.
Ingenious, instead of quarreling with
Professor Mikleman because he pro
ferrcd these things to her, resolved to
win him through her successful rivals.
Professor Mlklemnn's work at the
time was limiting for a t. wn of the
ancient (lauls, Xclodunnm. In what
had liocn the province of the Senonos.
It was but a short distance from Par
Is. which city the professor made his
headquarters. Miss Markland mani
festo* I an Interest In the work and
formed a |Hirty to visit It. S' ? '.und
the professor bossing a gang of ? <11
who wore maklnc h< !??? In the i_t< r.nd
at points designated l y their e ploy
er. who siM'iit his leisure tlm- s' tidy
ing maps, l>ooks In the I .a tin !an
guage and copious memoranda. Though
the digging had goue on n month,
nothing had been found but the jaw
bonc of a u ? n, which the professor
pronounced ? Iji ' ' :
The professor was getting discour
aged. Mi** Markland ? ? ".ithirod
willi lilra. She asked hlvi what kind
of thine* he hoped to find. Ho told
her that the Romans had < atit; ligned
in the province and" it had become
Roman. lie therefore !? ?.<! ' >r Ro
man articles, su?-h as armor, weapons,
pottery, coins. That was all MS
Markland wanted t- know.
The party, all except Profess, ,r Ml
kleman, returned to Paris. Miss Mark
land wrote the profe- s.ir encouraging
him to die on. She knew lie was hravo
and would not give up II" did i Ive up
and came back to Paris. M;-s Mark
land Induced him to revise hi* work
pertaining to the location ? f Ne|.?ln
num. He con sented and s; ent a nv:ith
in the ParN Hbrarlt" lie f and a
new record indhatliig that the t \vn
lay several hundred yards from where
he had l?een dl;.vlng. He v .is about
to hurry again to hN w<>rl: v '????!
Miss Markland | ? rsuaded Mm to -ulde
a party to some <>f his other excava
tions. He consented.
The day before the departure Miss
Markland n -.-clved s.w.d i?.\.-s by
express Their arrival was aoiir i.l
to her when Prof"s<or Mikleman was
with her. He looketl curious, where
upon she t<>!d him they contained
tombstones that she h 1 ordered for
her family lot In a cemetery in Amer
ica.
On the return to Paris after a ten
days' nbseii' e examining P" r -r
Mlkleman's <-\ avations he anm meed
that he was going to dig for Nelodu
num on the new site. Miss Markland
persuaded him to consult with other
eminent excavators, and this further
delayed him When he was ready to
proceed Miss Markland Induced her
brother, who was a graduate of sn
American university and a great schol
ar. to take an Interest In the matter,
and the two went with the professor
to the spot to l>e excavated. 1I?> or
dered several holes due when Miss
Markland suggested digging ? n a sj>ot
near where some one had driven In a
peg. The professor did not notice the
peg, for Miss Markland was standing
on It. The workmen went down six
feet and brought up a Roman helmet,
a piece of broken statuary and half i
dozen arrows in quick succession.
The professor was much exclled.
A number of coins, mostly Roman;
an earthen pitcher, a greavo and a Ro
man short sword came next.
The professor was In ecstasies.
The next article was evidently quite
large, for the workmen were obliged
to dig almoin It. Finally they got it
out. When the professor saw It he
danced about, crying. "The head of a
ram!" and, not knowing what he did.
threw his arms about Miss Markland' s
neck. It was some time before she
could quiet him sufficiently for him to
explain that the ram's head was a
Roman w<apon for battering walls.
Well. Professor Mikleman. though
he found articles only within a limited
region, became famous for correcting
noted excavators as to the location of
Nelodunum. He attributed Ms success
to Miss Markland and told her he
could not possibly live without her
Shortly l?efore the wedding Miss
Markland paid two bills one to do
vanni Cultlmnrl. a relic dealer, for
four boxes of relics, the other to Jean
Gantler. contractor, for burying the
articles. SALLIE MKNDUM.
