CHAPTER CCCVII.
Toward noon of the day after
Carl Booth's beefsteak dinner,
Daisy Condon telephoned me. It
was the first time she had per
taken the initiative where 1 am
concerned, but I didn't deceive m>-
self into thinking it indicated grow
ing friendliness for me o n the pari
of Kate's little sister.
"Would you lunch with me this
noon, Mrs. Harrison?" she asked
adding hastily in anticipation of my
hesitation to let her spend money
on me. "Really you 11 be
for your own lunch out of the n e
dollars and a half I won from you at
bridge last night. 1 want to see
you and I can well afford to treat
to-day, you see.
"All right I'll see you, but I hate
feasting off your ill-gotten gains,
I agreed with a mental reservation
about who'd take the lunch check
despite the fact that I remembered
the old days when I'd resented al
wavs having to be the guest.
When I met Daisy 1 ordered only
cold eggs and slaw in mayonnaise,
with coffee to top it off. Her eyes
twinkled. It was easy to see that
the habit of humor and happiness
might easily light Daisy's sullen and
drab little face to piquant prettiness.
"In case I wasn't bluffing about
whose party this is," she said gaily
"you order the cheapest and most
filling things you can find. Really,
Mrs. Harrison, you're a regular
guardian angel."
I felt my face crimsoning. it
ntisht have been more amusing if
it hadn't been so annoying.
"I want to be your friend Daisy,
I said trying not to have it sound
prim and stodgy.
Daisy's eyes widened and stared
at me.
"I guess you would, too—if you
knew how," she said. "And per
haps things would have gone the
same way even if you hadn't come
along. Well, after all, no one can
do better than their best. Now your
best is a recommendation to Mr.
Mason. I've resigned at Haldane's
and I'm going to Mr. Mason's office
How Fat Folks
May Become Thin
If you are suddenly becoming stout,
or if you have been putting on flesh
for years, the cause is generally the
same—lack of oxygen varrying power
of the blood. This trouble occurs
mostly in men and women over thirty
but it may be easily treated and with
out any of the privations most fat
people imagine necessary to reduce
their weight. Simply go to your drug
gist, and get a box of Phynola. Take
five grains after each meal and at
bedtime. Wonderful results should
be quickly accomplished by this sim
pl# treatment.
Be sure however you get the genu
ine Phynola. It is put up in original
sealed packages, is pleasant to take
and gives prompt results. Gorgas, the
druggist, stores 16 N. 3rd St., Third
and Walnut Sts.. and Penna. R. R.
Station. C. Keller's Drugstore and
George's Drugstore can supply you.
THE PANGS GF
RHEUMATISM
Cannot Be Rubbed Away With
Liniments
You who are afflicted with
this most painful disease—who
know from experience just
how excruciating its pangs
arc—get this fact fixed firmly
in your mind and it will aid
you in finding a way to a com
plete recovery. Rheumatism
cannot be rubbed away with
liniments, its pains and
pangs cannot be wiped out as
if by magic. A disease that is
so full of torture and finally
renders its victims so helpless,
is a deep-seated one; it is not
on the surface, hence it cannot
be reached by external, sur
face remedies. This is no the
ory, for our own experience
doub'Jess has shown you that
you can never expect to rid
yourself of the disease i'n this
way.
For the chances are that
you, like thousands of other
sufferers, have been misled in
to the hope that liniments, lo
tions and other applications
would cure your rheumatism.
But what has been your ex
perience? The pains possibly
have been lessened for the
time being, but have they not
promptly returned, often with
increased severity, and arc you
really any nearer a cure than
before? You certainly are not,
and you never will be as long
as you rely upon treatment that
at best is merely a makeshift.
See what Mr. J. L. Agnew,
of Mt. Vernon, Ohio, says of
what S. S. S. did for his rheu
matism :
"For ten years I was badly
afflicted with Rheumatism, the
pains in my knees, legs and
ankles being almost unbearable.
I tried various remedies with
out results, until a physician
advised mo to use S. S. S., stat
ins that the disease was in the
blood. After taking a few bot
tles the pains and soreness
were greatly lessened. I con
tinued this medicine until all
pain, serenes sand inflammation
were gone, and I was complete
ly cured."
J. J. AGNEW,
606 E. Gambler Street
Mt. Vernon, Ohio.
This is a typical case, and
WEDNESDAY EVENING,
after lunch to make final arrange
ments about taking charge of his
uptown studio."
"Why are you doing this," I
gasped.
"Why? Oh, for a number of rea
sons. First of all—l like Mr.
Mason."
"But Daisy, liking a man isn't a
legitimate business reason for giv
ing up a splendid position and real
prospects for the future "
"How do you know what my pros
pects with Mr. Mason are?" inter
rupted Daisy pertly.
"I can't know of course, unless
you choose to tell me. But at Hal
dane's you might come to be lit
erary editor some day. You have
a splendid position now. You're
about to come into personal touch
with Mr. Haldane and your own
I ability and willingness to work ought
ito do the rest."
"Literary editor, indeed!" laughed
j Daisy scornfully. "Fifteen years
from now, maybe. And I'm sick of
the old galleys and cuts and forms,
j I'm sick of the smudgy proof sheets
i and the bang of the presses up in
' the composing room. I like beauty
j I'm going where it is. Lovely things
my eyes. I've resigned I tell you!
jWe needn't discuss Haldane's any
! longer."
"All right," I said gravely, "What
j are we to discuss?"
"Why, your standing sponsor for
|my character. Ordinarily Mr. Mason
j says, he'd ask anyone who was to
j take charge of a place like his up
town studio to give him a bond for
lat least $5,000. Of course. I can't
do that. And 1 wouldn't feel I
could ask you to either. But if
you'll just tell him how you feel
about me "
Her words made me start.
"And what must that be?" I
asked interrupting in turn.
"Why you've shown how that is.
You've taken me about socially.
You got me this dress. I know it's
all for Kate —but this is for her,
too. I want to get away from Hal
dane's. You've made me see I have
to. I can't stand the strain of be
ing there everything—with him. No
! —please don't say a word, I'm trv
! Ing to forgive you, but I can't talk
; about it toyou."
! "But Daisy, I haven't changed
| anything for you. My friendship
! with him—dates back to the time
! when you were a little girl. I can't
be melodramatic and make a large
gesture of putting an old friend who
is just that and no more out of my
life —can I?" I replied with no pre
tense that I din't fully understand.
"Will you please not talk about
it?" asked Daisy wearily. "I'm not
blaming you being beautiful and
desirable and making men forget.
| I'm not saying that you'd come be
| tween me and what I wan't if you
could help it. But you have spoiled
Imy chances. You've spoiled what I
j think was my one chance at Hal
i dane's. I think you almost spoil
ed my life. Now will you dare dis
-1 cuss it or protest?"
"Yes, I dare!" I said hotly. "You
I are all wrong. Love and friendship
everyone who has had the
slightest experience with rheu
matism will continue to suffer
and grow worse until they are
finally practically un
less they realize that the dis
ease must be combatted at its
source. Rheumatism is often a
diseased condition of the blood,
the disease attacks the body
through the blood, hence the
system can be rid of its pains
only after the blood has been
cleansed of the germs of the
disease.
Lotions, liniments and oint
ments, applied to the surface
may in some cases deaden the
pain for the time being, but
until you attack the disease at
its foundation, you are making
no progress toward a cure,
and you are permitting the
trouble to get a firmer hold on
your system every day. This
is one reason why Rheumatism
is usually a permanent disease.,
staying with its victims year
after year. Getting rid of' the
disease is merely a matter
of treating it intelligently.
Knowing that it cannot be
cured by external applications,
it is folly to rely upon such
treatment.
S. S. S. is without question
the most thorough blood med
icine ever made, and it cleanses
the blood of every impurity and
disease germ. That is >why it
seldom fails to give satisfac
tory results in even the sever
est cases of Rheumatism. Be
ing purely vegetable without a
particle of mineral or chemical
in its composition, it works by
eliminating and forcing out of
the blood all impurities, acting
as a tonic to the entire system
at the same time. It has been
in use for more than fifty years
and thousands of sufferers
from rheumatism give it un
stinted praise.
You are invited to write our
medical department for full in
formation and advice about the
treatment of your own case,
for which no charge is made.

WHEN TO GATHER T
ROOTS AND HERBS
For medicinal purposes, roots and
herbs should be guthered when their
medicinal properties are at their
best. For instance, roots of annual
plants should be dug just before
their flowering season, and roots of
biennial or perennial plants after the
tops have dried. All these things
are taken into consideration in
gathering the roots and herbs, mar.-y
tons of which are used annually in
preparing that most successful of
all remedies for v lan's ills, Lydia

OCTOBER 24 TO !
BE ARBOR DAY
Dr. Fincgan Proclaims That
Day For the Care of Trees j
and Care of Birds Too |
Friday. October 24, was to-day pro- i
claimed by Dr. Thomas E. Finegun,;
the new Superintendent of Public ]
Instruction, as autumn arbor day j
and bird day for Pennsylvania.
The proclamation is directed to ;
"citizens, school directors, superin-!
tendents, teachers and the children •
of the Commonwealth," and says, in i
part:
There is no State in the union j
whose natural resources are mole.
varied or more valuable than the j
natural resources of Pennsylvania.
A noted writer recently referred to j
our Commonwealth as the "Indus
trial Titan of America." The indus- j
| trial supremacy of the State depends;
i in a large measure upon her coal, i
iron, forests and rivers. The vastj
| mountain forests, the numerous I
I rivers and streams and our delight- j
I ful climate have made the land of!
| Penn the abode of a large variety I
jof summer and of winter birds. The I
I birds exercise a great influence upon I
! many phases of agricultural life, and j
the forests, streams and birds not |
only influence economic and coni-i
mercial affairs, but they are agencies j
of great value in promoting the |
health, the social conditions and the
happiness ollour people.
The school may not, therofore,
render a greater service to the State •
than to inculcate in every child'
under its influence a spirit to eon-j
serve every natural resource and to <
protect every useful bird. Every I
citizen of the Commonwealth should }
he educated to feel that the waste of j
any of our natural resources is a <
national injury and an offense to the ,
good name of the State. I, there- |
fore, suggest that on the day set 1
apart for the observance of the au
tumn arbor day and bird day that
the schools co-operate with the pub
lic and with all organizations desir
ing to promote the best interests of
the State by holding such appropri
ate public exercises in the schools
or elsewhere as shall show the value
of our natural resources, the rela
tion which they bear to the con
tinued prosperity of our pedple, the
vital necessity of their conservation
and how many of those which have i
already been depleted may be in part •
at least ultimately restored. Where
an adequate number of trees have |
been planted on the school grounds
it Is suggested that the school au- i
thoritics co-operate with the highway
authorities in planting trees along
the highways. The children and the
adults will get much pleasure and
will render a great service in per
fecting plans which will extend to
the winter birds a cordial invitation
to remain with us and a hearty wel-j
come to the summer birds on their |
return to us in the spring. |

When the gentian's in the meadow,

When the chestnut burrs are opened,
And the acorns drop like hail,
And the drowsy air is startled

With the drumming of the partridge
And the whistle of the quail.
Through the rustling woods I wan

Through fhe jewels of the year.

D'Annunzio Proclaims
Italian Warships Units
of "Fiuman Navy"
Pola, Monday, Sept. 22. Four
Italian warships, the battleship
Dante Alighieri and the destroyers
Mirabello, Nullo and Abba, are
named as units of the "Fiuman
navys" in a proclamation written by
Captain Gabriele D'Annunzio and
distributed in this city.
The proclamation praises the men
of these ships for their loyalty to
the Fiuman cause and extols them
for their valorous acts. It is Muted
here it was because of the desertions
of these four vessels from the regu
lar Italian navy that Allied com
manders were forced to withdraw
from the harbor of Fiume, which
was considered unsafe while the
Dante Alighieri was anchored there
and was loyal to the D'Annunzio
cause.
Dispatches from Fiume soon after
Captain Gabriele D'Annunzio's coup
stated the Dante Alighieri was un
able to leave port because her ma
chinery had been damaged by the
crew, but recently It has been re
ported she had departed, having on
board Admiral Casanova who was
placed under virtual arrest in Fiume
when he landed and attempted to
interfere with Captain D'Annunzio's
control of the town. There is no
record in available lists of the three
destroyers named in the foregoing
dispatch, and they probably are
vessels which have been built since
the beginning of the war.
