~ EMMA EAMES, Another of America’s Great Singers and Operatic Stars. In Perfect Health at the End of a Verv Hard Season. Her Confession of the Secret Among all of America’s famous and charming songsters, who year aiter year flit gayly across the opera- tic firmament, there is none who has perhaps a larger following or more devoted and enthusiastic admirers than [mma Eames. Her appearance in Boston and elsewhere, in company with other operatic stars, is invari- ably the signal for the uprising of a train of worshipping adherence, who are drawn to her and held captive by the overpowering influence of her genius, just as surely as moths are drawn to a lighted taper. Any one who has ever had the pleasure of hearing her sing—and who has not— can never forget it. Her v@ice is indeed a voice from heaven, and the ecstatic thrill which passes over an audience when she sings is truly in- deseribable. Last season, according to her own confession, was the hardest and most trying since her entrance to the oper- atic profession. Toward the close of the season the prima donna was in rather poor health, and, as she says, were it not for using JOHANN HOFI'S MALT EXTRACT, she was in a fair way of becoming seri- ously ill. In acquainting her friends of this fact Miss Eames writes as follow: “T feel that I owe to the GENUINE JOHANN HOFF’S MALT EX- TRACT in a great measure the fact that, at the end of a very hard sea- son, I am in better voice and general health than at the beginning. I have constantly used the JOHANN HOFE'S MALT EXTRACT with my meals.” Avoid substitutes. Call for and insist upon having none but the ,UINE JOHANN HOFF’S MALT EXTRACT.

CHAPTER XII A SMART LAWYER FROM NEW YORK. Dr Williams was horrilied, and his ex- pression sald so plainly Amelia, by a quick revulsion of feeling, almost broke down. A moment ago she had been exult- ant, now she was suddenly a penitent. “What have I done?” she moaned. “I could think of nothing but vengeance and justice. 1 thought I was doing right, and I am afraid I have done very wrong.” “You have certainly precipitated @ calam- ity,” satd the doctor, coldly, “and much suffering will ensue to innocent persons. What good will come of it I fall to sce." “But, Doctor Williams,” she protested, “were you not yourself devoted a: tirst to the same purpose? Did you not want that justice should be done?” “I wanted to know the truth, Miss Wil- lis." “Well?” she faltered, as he- paused. “Isn't that enough?” he asked. “It was all you demanded. I know now what was in your mind. punishment of @ guilty man was your real design.” “If you eculd have discovered the truth, then, you would have concealed it?” “I think I should, Will exposure restore the dead? Will an aes that may fail do any conceivable good “Dr. Williams, is it right that a murderer) should go about the world unpunished Amelia had recovered her self possession; she was once more fired by the spirtt of re- venge. “You ask a hard question, Miss Willis—" “You dare not answer it!” “Pardon me; you did not let me finish. It is hard to answer yes to your question, and I cannot do it. But neither can I answer no, in this instance. There are other cir- cumstances that cloud the Issue." “Only as those circumstances apply to yourself, Doctor Williams. You think you are in love with Louise, and out of splendid loyalty to her you permit yourself to be blinded to Justice.” The doctor flushed. He was all of a tremble. At no time In his life had he been so agitated. Amelia stood almost defiantly before him, seeming, in the strange argu- ment, to be the invincible defender of truth. Every word she uttered sank deep into his mind, and remained there a vivid memory for long after. Not yet subdued, he responded: “And when you apply the circumstances to yourself, Miss Willis, you permit them to blind you to family ties, humane in- # GAIL BORDEN /EAGLE Brand; «CONDENSED MILK..

I have ted wholly from selfish impulse. I felt that a wrong had been done to me and that it must be righted. I never should have tried to drag you into it, that is all. I am sorry, truly sorry on your account,” “Is that all? It Is too late to make re- srets of any avail, but do you think of your cousin? “Yes,” very slowly, “yes, I am sorry for Loulse She will suffer for a time, I sup- pose. “A time!" cried the doctor; “can such a “What have I done,” she moaned, stigma with Its agony disappear in a long ‘etime “The stigma cannot, perhaps, though even as to that some people will be happily cap- able of disregarding the stigma, I thirk. The agony will be short.” “You refer to Louise.” “Of course. I do not mean to speak harshly, but I understand her. She Is gift- ed above most others in a buoyant disposi- tion. I regret that she must suffer at all, but I could not see before how that was to be avoided, and I do not now. “Prof. Drummond may bi “T hope so, truly. Hush!” They were standing in the room off the hall, opposite to the dining room. Louise came to the door, “Now I've caught you!” she cried glee- fully. “What are you two plotting there? “Miss Drummond,” said the doctor grave- ly, “there {is to be a legal inquiry into the death of Mr. Starkweather.” “Dear me! she responded, showing an- noyance, but nothing more; “I had supposed that unfortunate affair would be forgotten, What will they do?” Amelia glanced significantly at the doc- tor. He saw at once that there was a pos- sibility that Louise after all might be shlelded from keen suffering, inasmuch as it failed to occur to her that the inquiry arose from suspicion against her father. He knew that no open charge would be made until a coroner’s jury had heard all procurable evidence, and he felt a faint hope that the evidence might be such that no charge could be brought against the pro- fessor. In answer to Loulse the doctor sald: “Witnesses will be summoned to tell what they know about the matter. Do you kno’ where to reach your father by telegrap! innocent.” “No. I never know papa’s movements when he goes away. He ought to be here, hadn't he?” “I think so. At all events he ought to know what is going on. “I will speak to Mrs. Appleton. It is just possible that she wili know where he is, as she saw him so recently.” Loulse consulted the new housekeeper, who declared that she knew nothing about the professor’s present location. What can we do?” asked Louise help- ly. Nothing,” responded the doctor; “there 1s no need to be distressed. The’ inquest cannot take place immediately, and for all we know the professor may come home tonight.” ‘There was relief for all in this thought, for had not the professor in his message to Mrs. Willlams written that he might be back scon? Mr. Philbrick called after the evening meal. He was quiet and gloomy, for him, but, at that, a beacon of good cheer com- pared to the doctor, who had remained at Fairview contrary to custom in order to be near Loufse should there be any start- ling cccurrence. The dector was exceed- ingly depressed. He knew that he would be called as a witness, and he dreaded the ordeal and the “smart lawyer from New York” more than he had ever dreaded anything in his life. “I suppose you've doctor?” remarked at a moment when ting by themselves, “T have,” replied heard what's coming, Philbrick inquiringly the ladies were chat- the doctor. “I'm ex- eocainely 801 Ty." The doctor looked at Philbrick in incredu- lous surprise. “I mean it,” safd Philbrick quietly. “Have you seen this man Starkweather?” “No. I suppose you have. What is he going to do?” “You credit me with a good deal of in- formation. Howeyer, by lving at the ho- tel I bappen to be in the way of knowing what's going on in this matter. Stark- mea er talks pretty loud. That’s my one ope” ss ‘ou mean he threatens more than he is likely to accomplish?” “That's about it.” Dr. Willams knew not what to make of this kind of talk from Philbrick. It was the only private conversation they had had since the “understanding” after their en- counter, and the doctor was even less dis- pesed to trust nite than before. The report that an inque: as to Wb held had reawak- ered all his s concerning Phil- brick’s “casual in the Fairview mystery, although the doctor would have been hard put to it to name a single act or appearance: ten days or so to justify his lorick had intro- duced this E smed rather anxious to continue it, but the doctor held back.

He felt not only her lack of ap- preciaticn of this thoughtfulness, by which he had hoped to save her and Amelia a night's rest, but he was also jarred by the trifling way in which she viewed the mat- ter. Of course, he reflected, trying to see her in the perfect light, she was sweetly unconscious that anybody could think ji1 of her father, and as for poor Starkweath- er, well, perhaps {t was too much to ex- pect that .her joyous nature should be deeply touched by the death of a man in whom she felt no interest. Amelia had spoken truly in referring to her buoyancy. "Squire Taylor's little court room was densely crowded at 10 o'clock, for all Bel- mont hed learned that an inquest was to be held. A _ccroner’s jury of six men was impaneled without delay, and Dr. Williams felt his heart sink when he saw among them Landlord Delos Hawkins—he who kad been the first in his presence to utter suspicions of the professor. What if Delos should cherish resentment for the rebuke the doctor had administered to him? What if he should insist on his right to ask a lot_of questions? The doctor sat with Louise and Amelia near the front. A little way from them fas Philbrick and directly in front of him were two strangers, Charles Starkweather and Isidor v, the “smart lawyer from New Yor The latter, after the jury had been impaneied, rose and formally an- nounced that he was present in the inter- ests of the family of the deceased.
