I am a Ctrmer located nirar Stony Btook, one .^f the most m.ibrious . districts in thi* State, and was bothered with akiliii.i for years, at times 90 I could not work, anJ was alw.iys vciy oonsiipiti'd as well. For vcara I ha(l malaria so bad in the sprinii. whn cnij.i.^ed in plowing, VMt I could do nothing but sh.ikc. i must l.ive taken about a Itarrel 0(quinine pills besides dozens of other remedies, but n.-\ er obtained Wy permanent benelit Last f.ill. in pea^h iim-. I h id a most seiious BttACR of chills and tben commenced to take R p.ms T.ibules, upon a Mend's advice, and th.; first box m.ide me all ri^ht and I have never been without them since. I t.ikc one T.ilvile each morning and nij^ht •nd sometimes when 1 feel more than usu.illy exh.iusteJ I t.ike three in a day. Thev have kept my stomach sweet, mv b«iwels rejiulai and I have not had the Ic.ist tottch of mal iria nor spl ttmg ne.id.iche since I commeiKcd using them.

I don't know how m.inv complaints Riftans Tabules will help. kOt I do know ihev Will .ure any one in Ihe condition i was and I woukl not be without them at any price.

.swer the hell, flo Mra, C a 9 i i d J went herself. ' ' W h y, Cela Beth- iiue! I'mso glad!" ahe 3ricd, in greeting her visitor.
"Yes! I wauted to aee yon!" the Rirl returued fervently, as thoy kissed each other. "1 was ont lor a spin and came this way. • • • How do you like my new aait?"
"I like it!' It looks jnat lovely on j-oit!"
"Isn't tho skirt too short?" "Not a bit.     Yon want it short." "But  not   too   short," insisted tho girl.    "I was so  afraid  it  wonld  be too short.    Some look perfeotly shock¬ ing."
"Iknow. Bntyour'i. isu't a bit too short, dome in this way where we can sit dowji."
"Oh, but I mustn't stay! " "I thought you wauled to see me?" Cela's exercise hsd heightened the color in her pretty faoe, but a blush inoreased it still more as Mrs, Cassidy recalled those llrst words, Celo covered her confusion with wore talk in regard to her new gown and the trials she had uudergoue iu having it cut nud tltteil. Even as sh. spoke Mrs. Cassidy aeeuied forced to take the girl's measure iu a certaiu other light.
"How old aro you, Cela?" she asked, nbruptly.
"Why,   Lniiro   Cassidy!      What   a
question'    l)o yon   think   I'm   going
to tell'?    «    •    •    Nineteen.      Why?"
"Yon'll bo   gottiug  married   before
long."
"Oh, mygoodness! I'm never going tomnrry. But I've had a proposal," blushiug furiously.
".Vnd you've said 'Yes.' I'm so gla 1. How lovely of you to come and tell me oil nbout it."
Mrs, Cassidy was about to fold the girl in her arms again, but Cela waved her off.
"Oh, dear, no! And what's more, I'm not going to ssy 'yes.' Oh, I don't know what I'm going to say. How do you ileciife about such things? You've had to once, uot long ago. Tell me,     That'.-i what 1 came for,"
A note tremulous of despair hovered nlnint her voice.
"It's easy, You must know whether you love Norman Ford or not,"
"Norman Ford! How didyoDguess him? "
"Why, who else could it be?" "He isn't   tlio   only  youug   mau!" Celn retorted, withn touch of rescnt- luent.
Mrs. Crtssidy gave tone to a rich laugh. Hhe was in lovo with the mo¬ ment. Cela was mindful ouly of the main question.
"Y'ou see, I would have to leave papa aud go and live with N—Mr. Ford. I've onl.y kuowu bim a few laonths—a year ur two at most—and I've kuown paps all my life."
Mrs. Catflidy's laagh was very pro¬ voking.    Oela was vexed.
"Oh, you know what I mean. What makea yon behave so? I thought you Would help me. "
".\udso ( will. Y'ou must stay with me a week. Send for your things. You mnst think it over. A matter of this kiud can't he decided at once."
'•That's just what I told Norm'!" said the girl, flashing joyously. "It's so kind of yon to help me. I knew yon would. 1 wnnt to talk it all over with yon. You see, I don't waut to make .ny mistake."
.\ud talk it over they did every dny, almost every hour, for a week.
"It will bo better for yon uot to see Mr. Ford nntil yon cau give him a dctlnitc answer," her friend had said, and Cela aciiuiesoed iu the wisdom of this. "Ol course I cau't choose for you. I can ouly help you to kuow your own mind."
"How did you  ever   choose?" Cela asked, envious of her friend's ability. "It was easy.    I jnst knew." "That's il; you always kunw every¬ thing, and I never know auytliiug."
Later, whon Mrs. Oassiily niioRtioned lier, Cela said—"Ju the moruiug I'm all for papn. Theu it seems just us clear as can be what I siiall dn. Bat toward eveuing. nbout the time Nor— Mr. Ford- usually comes" -thi red |iiiined iut.i Cela's cheeks "why. I'm nil at sea again   "
"But you donl really have to choose lietweeu them.     Yuu just   —"
"till, yes, I dii! ' lulerrupted Cela very positively. "It can never he the same. It wilfail bediir.-roiit. I elmulil have tu give up papa, ami 1 shall most certainly say   'No.'
This was lu  tlie  moruiug. In the   alteruoiiu Mrs.  Cassidy and Tela went for a spin through the parks ' ""K' on their wheels. !
•¦Oh. Mr. For.l aud I have had sm-h j lovely I ides on a iaudem tliat. Ue lias'" I Cela said raptur.Misly,     "I wuh I ha.l written huu a note telling where I am I staying.     I   renlly   don't   thiuk there \ would he auy harm in his coming, aud be might help me   to   a liecisiou.     It really seems as  if  it would  be   heart- . less to say   N.*.' f,>r he says he thinks ererything of   me.     You just ought to Uear bim once'    Au.l,   as   yiu   say,   I i liaveu t really pot ti. give papa np.   He ' might come and  live   with us.     .Vny- ! way, (I could   see   him   every   day— ; almost as much as I d.i n w,   for he's ] only home  a few honrs in   the   eren- ing.     But il  did seem   so   terrible   at
street they separate; yonr father goei west to take tbe Third street cars. Now this is my plan; this afternoon on year way home you ride y aur wheel slowly down tne avenue jnst back of the two men. Bnt don't let them See yoa. All the way you mnst just think that yoa must make up yonr mind be¬ tween them, and at the corner where they pnrt that yon will follow the one whom you decide upon. Bide your wheel just ss slow as you cau, but yor mustn't stop or fall olT." "Yes." said Cela.
".Vud if at tbe very last yon can't decide leave it all to the wheel.'* '
"Leave it to tho wheel?" Cela did not understand.
"Y'es. Haven't yon ever noticed your wheel act independent of your¬ self? Thot is, turn this way or that without your consciouely making it?" "It did that wheu I was learning tr ride."
"Bnt since'" "Yes—sometimes." "Well,   that's  the wny  planchotto works," said the  other mysteriously "It's   really  one's    subconsciousness tbst does it,   I suppose.    You   kuon Bubconscionsness is  like clairvoyance and second sight nud hypnotism  aud all those things which know nil  abou' the pnst and future." Cela shuddered. "I nm afraid of such things. " "Bnt not of snbcouseiousuess.     To be afraid of thol wonld bo   like beiup afraid of one's owu soul." "Well, whot then?" eagerly. "Why, if it is best that you   shonid accept Mr. Ford your wheel will keep straight  ahead  dowu  Columbia ave¬ nue after   him.    But   if   yon    renlly ought to refuse him it will turn with- oiit  your really making  it, down tht street thnt your father takes," "Really?" "Yes."
"I have resd that the wheel taught one decision," Cela snid, "bul I never kuew jnst how.'>
"Well, that's how," said Mrs. Cas¬ sidy, slowly ond thoughtfully.
'The auu hod disappeared behind tho tall brick blocks to the west, aud left the street, canyonlike, in soft shadows. Cela darted among the car¬ riages, dcdging heavily ladeu trucks, the while keeping a sharp eye upon the w-alk for two meu.
"Ob, there he is!" she snid softly, with a little thrill of delight. "Norm bass new suit of gray; that's why I didn't know him sooner. What would he think if ho kuew I was so uear, watching him? He said he shonid be under torture till I gave him my an¬ swer. He doesn't act like it. What con papa ond he be talking so agree¬ ably about? Papa, the denr old soul! But I must be thinking—I must choose between them!' Cola's face poled alitlle. "I'opa wouldn't come and livo with us. He just couldn't! Whenever we've talked of boarding he has said he could uot bear to give up his home. It's a wonder Norm doesn't look this way. Ilo has said again and again thot he kuew when I wns in the same room with him—that he could feci m- eyes."
Thoy .crossed .Teifersou street. "It's at the next corner, now!" sUo gasped, "and I haven't decided yet. I om all that pnpo has in this world. How can I lonve him aloue? Wonld it ba right? Other daughters du. Laura seemed to thiuk it avouUI. Norm snys ho oan never love any ono else—he'd rather die thou live without me. Oh, here is the earner. And they nre separating. Papa is lookiug this w-ay. What shall I do? I just cau't decide. Laura said leave it to the wheel. What will tho wheel do?" Thoro was a breathless moment. Colo's wheel was going very slow; then slower, slower, but straight ahead. Tpon its movements hung her fate. Wonld it decide for Norm? Hor heart hod almost ceased to bent. One more turu of the ]icdnls would carry her hy. Slower, slower. Sud¬ denly her wheel turned sharply to the right.
"Oh, ifs for paps," she aaid with breath thot come like a kuife iu hei side.     "Poor Norm."
In another moment Cela had over- token her father, ond together thej turned down tho street, which rau porollel to Columbia avenue.
"Yon'ro uot looking woll," Mr BetliUDo said.
"I've beeu doing some very hare riding," Cola replied, avoiding hii eyea, for there were teara in h -r own,
"Why, there is Nov , Mr. Ford." I
she exclaimed, ss that yonng man camo up the side street toward thoiu. Ford was surprised to Iiud Cela with her father, hnt delighted withal. Her reception was such as one might givo the ghost of a dear dead friend. | "Here are some papers I meant to i give you, hut forgot them." ]
"Oh, yes," replied Bethune, taking the package.   "Y'on'll he up thia even¬ ing? " he inquired with a look toward his   daughter  which   seemed to add, ] "non that Cela is home."
"Y'es," Cela answered quickly for him, aud Ford lelt he wns to kuow his fate that night, aud feared wlint it would be. Cela was very pale; hci manner wns iinmistakahlc.
.\fter tea Mr. Bclliuiio sat in liis library. Cela had taken s stool and drawn it near him iu the dusk.
