OR, A LOOK INTO THE PAST CURED OFJGilSTIPATON Mr. Andrews prais«s Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills. I CH.VPTER XXV. Mrs. Darnloy was sating in her charming litlli drawing-room, whicli, all dismantled as it Uad be«n wheu she liad departed for Nice, yet looked cosy and pr^ty in the afternoon dusk ana the fireg'ow. She was resting back luxuriously, Iflaiicing through a pile- of letters which awaited her, one of which was from Lady Burton, giving a long and exultant account of dear ed mo into marrying liini. and that youâ€" you, Mr». Darnley, had helped him. 1 have come to you to know if this be true ? If I am wronging you by asking the ques- tion, 1 will humbly beg you to par- don nie." There was dead silence in the room, broken only by the ticking of the clock; then Mra. Darnley rose from her chair and faced the girl. •And if I say that it is true,' Maude 8 engagement to the y»u'>8 j ^he said, with strange deliberation, Sir Richard Boothby, one of the Mr. George Andrews of HaliCux, N.S., wrires: '"For many years I have been troubled with chronic Constipation.
