What quieted her at last was the consoling thought that she was about to do what her conscience dictated. This helped the sting of the memory of Arthur's knowledge of her deception. For the moment it made her .prpposed plan; of action seem easy. . F(#\ scoff, as one may, the knowl edge' that one has sacrificed one's own desires and hopes for the wel fare, of a loved one does bring somd reward In a comfortable con sciousness of duty performer. But this comfortable assurance does not always last. In many casee It needs to be reinforced by the i grateful appreciation ,of the person for whom one has made a sacrifice. And the person i,n ques tloh?sometimes ignores the fact that any'fepecial favor has been done her. So when Honora arose' on the morning following the automobile accident, determined to bear cheer fully, what had happened and must happen—because It was for Milly's haippiness that she do this—her entlfjusiasm received a cold douche.' For Milly was not in a good hunjior. She was annoyed at being awakened a few minutes earlier than was absolutely necessary.

There Is certainly no need of both of us going downstairs to Superintend Katie. 1 ' Hoiidra turned back to her bu reau and flnish&d adjusting her collar. "You would best get up, dear," she said after awhile. "All right!" Mildred yawned and sat on the edge of the bed swinging one pink foot back and forth. "Don't you hate your job at this hour of the morning? It's all very well to feel that you are leaking good money, but it's a nuisance to have to do it." "You won't make much money to-day if you don't get up!" Honora rejoined tartly. "Don't be cross!" Mildred snap ped. "There-r-I knew I would say something to vex you if 1 got up. And now I've done It!" Mildred yawned again. At the sound Honora felt as if she must stamp her own feet in nervousness. Why wouldn't Milly get up and dr^ss! "I'm aWfully sleepy this morn ing," the younger girl announced. I guess that ride last night tired mo a bit. But it was exciting, wasn't It?" "It certainly was," was the dry admission. "I suppose V ou were rather frightened too," Mildred com mented. ; "I was horribly frightened," Hon ora said curtly. "I did not know but what you were killed." * "Well,'' I wasn't, you see," the other observed lightly. Then, throwing her wrapper about her, she strolled away to the bathroom to take her morning shower.

Then she reproved herself ly. Surely she, Honora, .deserved no credit in hurrying that which might occur in the course of time anyway. She had put her hand to the plough. She must not look back. Mixed Dinner Crowd At breakfast she made a sugges tion that had grown out of this de termination. . "MTTdred," she ventured, "wouldn't you like to have somebody here to dinner to-morrow Saturday night?" Mildred looked up interested. "Who?" "Why," with an effort to speak in differently, "perhaps we might ask Arthur 'to come In. An<J perhaps I rtiiglit dsh Miss Pearson—Sir.

"Mrs. Higglns will hardly return before Monday." "I'd rather not have Miss Pear son," Mildred objected. A happy thought occurred to Hon ora. "Why not let us ask Mr. and Mrs. Bruce instead? We will be amply chaperoned and. we can omit Miss Pearson." Milly hesitated. "That doesn't sound so very hilarious." she began. Then, with one of her characteristic changes of mood "But I don't care!

"Tom will behave all right with two eld erly people looking on," she laughed. "He's certainly a gentle man, and I believe we will have a very jolly time. I say," with a mis chievous grin, "that's some com bination, isn't it? and such an op portunity to play Tom and Arthur off against each other. Just watch me!"

When I got back to the canteen I found it huddling in silence on the edge of the sidewalk —dark and shuttered for the night. I rattled the door frantically, and crouched on the steps to peer through the chinks of the lattice work walls. But no friendly greet ing reached out to welcome me. There was only a blinking cat prowling about in the shadows. This was a frightful disappoint ment, for when I darted off my car and raced back to the canteen I'd never doubted that I should find the lieutenant there and be able to im press her with the story of Carlotta Sturges' cleverness in preventing.me from using the anonymous cigarets, I had felt confident that this bit of finesse and thoughtfulness would counteract any blunder Carlotta had made—and save her the hu miliation of being transferred from our unit. I didn't like the girl— but I felt I owed her this, and I wanted to pay it at once. I gave one last vindictive rattle to the doorknob, and then laughed at my own frenzy of disappoint ment. "What's the matter, sister —lose something?" asked a man's voice. It sounded jovial—too jovial. I straightened up resentfully, but not at all timidly, and looked into the puzzled eyes of a splendid, big po liceman. "Yes, I've lost something—a chance to pay oft a debt," I said. He grinned good-naturedly and shook his head. "Run along home and pay your bills in the morning when the cash ier's around," said he. "For if you go prowling about like this I'll have to conclude you're planning to •take what's none of yours sooner than paying what you owe." "I'm not crazy, officer," I pro tested. "No—an' you're not any lighter in the fingers than you are in the head—maybe. I'll believe it for about one more minnit. But run now before I do be running you in." I ran. But the cloc)c on the cor ner registered 9.30 long before my car came. Then I remembered un easily that I'd told Jim I would be home by .8.30. It would be all of 10 now before I got there. At our corner I stopped for a minute to buy some wonderful russet pears. Jim's favorite fruit might help me coax hint into good mood. When I reached our apartment there was no one in the hall, so I ran up the three flights of stairs without waiting for the elevator. I fitted my key Into the lock and flung the door open almost melodramati cally. It did seem so absurd for me to be marching home to my de serted husband at 10 o'clock of the night. But the apartment was dark and Daily Dot Puzzle ~ \ S ''*4r u t \ s j. r •* * '. \/" \ 8 , z,. 33 !_' ! 3l 9* . 4l - 2o* — _ 35 lo 10 21 • 4o • -■ • _• — 36 • • • 22 l7 • 'J as* 37 =: — • • 12 *A ' 6 23 26 fZ 36 - r=r •' 24 • 13* # 15 * 7 14 25 *26 • Draw from one to two and so on to the end. empty. Its stillness seemed to crouch—ready to spring at me. I had a queer feeling that I wasn't home at all, but still down at that silent and shuttered canteen. This dark, unfriendly place couldn't be my own home. If it were my home Jim would be there waiting for me. I sniffed vainly for a whiff of his old briar | pipe. But no warm, friendly cloud lof tobacco wafted Itself to me from I the blurry darkness, j An aroma of strangeness seemed Ito steep the place. I put out my hand nnd switched on the lights. And still my little home looked odd and unfamiliar. I told myself that was because it was empty of Jim. Almost timidly I crossed the room. There, propped against his own picture on the refectory table, lay a note in Jim's writing. I stood weighing it in my hand for a sec ond before I opened it. Then, still standing fwith my heavy coat slip ping back from my shoulders I twisted open the bit of paper and read Jim's message: / "Dear Annie: "Came home at 8.30, as we agreed, and sat here on pins and needles for half an hour. Then called the canteen and g,ot no answer. Waited till 9.30. You aren't a child, and I'm not going to be fool enough to worry about you. But I don't pro poso to sit home and wait for you any longer. Don't know when I'll be back. JIM." A little sob of uneasiness caught in my throat, and then suddenly a laugh chased it away. For as plainly as if ho had written it there I could read this message between the lines of Jim's note: "Now worry about me awhile. It's your turn, and I'm going to let you have your full share." Whereupon a low chuckle sounded In answer to my laugh. So Jim was home after all. Calmly, though my tieart was beating a rat-a-tat, I slipped out of my coat, and keep ing my eyes resolutely from the door to my bedroom, whence I was sure the laugh had come, I sank idly down on the couch and plumped up a pillow to fit into the hollow of my back. Then with keen enjoyment of my own power to be a complete spoil sport, I rolled my command on my tongue: "Come out—l heard you!" "Wqll, you take it calmly enough." It wasn't Jim's voice that an swered me! With terror tightening my throat I looked up to face the intruder. The half-open door leading to my bedroom stirred faintly and then flung.wide. Over the threshold stepped Tom Mason. (To Be Continued) DAILY HEALTH TALKS What Doctor Pierce Has Done For Humanity! BY DOCTOR CRIPPS. It has always seemed to me that Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y„ should be placed near the top when a list of America's great benefactors is written. He studied and conquered human diseases to a degree that few j realize. Whenever he found a remedy that overcame disease, he at once announced it In the newspapers and told where it could be bought at a small price. He did not follow the usual custom of keeping the in gredients secret, so that the rich only could afford to buy the medi-j cine, but openly printed the name! of each root and herb he used. And) so today the names of Dr. Pierce and his medicines are widely known, and they stand for better health and j better citizenship. One of this great physician's most I successful remedies is known as Doc tor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. These I are little, sugar-coated pills, com- j posed of Mayapple, leaves of aloe, I root of Jalap things that Nature I grows in the ground. These Pellets! are safe because they move the! bowels gently, leaving no bad after effects, as so many pills do. Very often they make a person who takes them feel like a new man or woman, for they cleanse the intestines of hard, decayed and poisonous matter that accumulates when one is costive. If you are constipated, by all means go to your druggist and get some of! .Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They! may prove to be the very thing your system requires to make you well and happy.
