"You Are-the Boss -

She held out her left hand with
sad little smile. 1T is good of you to
come SO soon,' she said, simply.
She had begged SO earnestly to sit
up that Mrs. White had improvised an
invalid's chair out of huge old rocker
and a cracker box. 1t did very we'll.
Then she had partially clothed the
girl in a skinny wrapper of the sort
Langford abominated, throwing a
mans silk handkerchief where the
wrapper failed to meet, and around
the injured arm. Mrs. White had
then recalled her husband from the
stables where he was on the point of
mounting to join the relief party that
was TO set off in search of Williston
at 10 o'clock. The starting point unan-
mously agreed upon was to be the
pitiful remnants of Williston's home.

might be from the bed to the rudely
constructed invalid's chair by the sit

her-the woman to putter around her
kitchen. the man to make good his
appointment. But the exerton had
been to much for Mary. She had
counted Gu strength that she did not
posses. Where had she lost it? she
wondered, lacking comprehension of
her exceeding weakness To be sure,
her arm alternately ached and smart
ed, but ones arm was really such a
small part of one, and she had been
so strong always. She tried to shake
of the faintness creeping over her. 1t
was effort thrown away. She lay back
on her pollow, very white and worn.

can you feel good if by some little ir-

stomach TO get out of order. These lit

gestion, which may and very often does
turn into a very bad case of dyspepsia.
