Hawthorne Emery dcrifr te

him that she hai once been in love
with a man who was unworthy of
her. She discevert that Dane is
very narrow n his ideas about
women, and that he is looking te
her te exert an influence evtr hit
little butterfly sister, Julie. Julie
has fallen in love with a man much
elder than herself, and later Haw

and Cranford Make, the man from
the pant, are one and the same.
Vane accuses Hawthorne of vaunt
ing her independent ideas before
Julie, and forbids her te go any'
where without him in the future,
Hawthorne's unwillingness te accept
this ultimatum causes a quarrel be
tween them, and the past when she
discovered Cranford Jllakc te be a

threatens all her happiness.

Real Rest Depends Largely Upen
the Depth of Your Sleep
MaMHMMKMaTa
A warning te "light" or "peer" sleepers
The deeper and sounder you sleep the better
you feel. Five hours sound refreshing sleep deea
you mere actual geed than ten hours restless,
disturbed sleep.
This is because the final conversion of feed
Inte vital tissue and nerve cell3 gees en mero
rapidly when the physical and mental forces ara
at rest.
Yeu can't get sound, refreshing sleep if your
nerves are agitated with tea or coffee. Beth these
drinks contain caffeine, which is sometimes very
irritating te the brain and nervous system.
If you want te knew the joy, vigor and
stamina that comes te the person who gets sound,
healthful sleep,' why net step taking tea or ceffea
for a while, and drink delicious, invigorating
Pestum instead.
Thousands of people everywhere have found
that this was the only thing they needed in erdcf
te bring about these very happy results.
Order Pestum from your grocer today.
Drink this delightful cereal beverage of ceffee-like
flavor, for a week. Perhaps, like thousands of
ethers, you'll never be willing te go back te tea
or coffee.
Peetnm eomee in two ferms: Instant Peeratn (in tine)
made instantly In the cup by the addition of boiling water.
Pestum Cereal (in packages of larger bulk, for theae who
prefer te make the drink white the meal ia belng piepaied)
made by boiling for 20 mlnutee.
