An announcement of considerable
national Significance came from the Moon
Motor Car Company last week, when
Stewart Mcdonald stated that the COM
pany of which he is vice president had
been elected a member of the Association
of Licensed Automobile Manufacturers
II means that in future the Moon car
for six years produced without license
like all cars whose makers are members
OF the American Motor Car Manutac-
turers Association. would be licensed
under the Selden patent
The action of the Moon company has
significance for motor car makers ana
present and prospective owners of motor
ears alike. because il is the direct result
Of the United states court decision OF
last September upholding the validity or
the Selden patent. which for years was
contested. Although II is not known az

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON

my little son, when about a year
and half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. had a physi-
clan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come out
on his arms, then on other parts Of
his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then l
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end of about
year and a half of suffering he grew
so bad that had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk.
my aunt advised me to try Cuti-
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. I

"Why won't my folks remember to

Thereupon Miss Cartright sat down

trouble with her mail ever since she

A few days later she received the

that had happened to her. 1t was as
wonderful as anything she had
dreamed might come when she had
written him that letter. And il she
needed any proof of his love, she had

her 90. There he had transcended
her hope.
He had been wonderful in a way
she had not expected. He had shown
her SO beautifully that he could be
reached in spite of his obsession.
Might not she hope to touch him just
q little further? Was there any
height now that he might not rise to?
She seemed 10 see the possible end of
it all shaping itself out Of his mag

finally relinquishing his passion for
the Jewel, and his passion for her for
the sake Of something finer than both.

To cure Rheumatism you must make

CHAPTER xVII.-(Continued.)

The child furtively tested her coin,
biting it as if to taste the glitter, and
Flora waited, lost, given up by her
self, passively watching for the room
TO be filled again with his presence.
He was back after long minute, and
door, where, pushing aside the tight
drawn curtain a little, from time to
time he looked out into the street.
Sometimes his eyes followed the
cracks of the plastered wall, some
times he studied the floor at his feet;
every moment she saw he was alert,
expectantly watching and waiting;
and though he never looked at her sit
ting behind him, she felt his protec-
tien between her and the darkening
street. She sat in the shadow of it,
feeling it all around her, claiming her
as it would claim her henceforth,
from the world. A ghost of light
glimmered along the curtains of the
window, and stopped, quivering, in
the middle of the curtained door.
Then he turned and beckoned her.
Sheer weakness kept her sitting. He
went to her, took her face between
his hands, and looked into it long and
fntently.
You don't want to go!" The words
fell from his lips like an accusal. His
sudden realization of what she felt
held him there dumb with disappoint-
ment. "You have won me-" her look
was saying, "and yet l have immedi-
ately become a worthless thing, be-
cause l am going; and don't believe
in going" She felt she had failed
him-how cruelty, was written in his
face. But it was only for a moment
that she made him hesitate. The next
he shook himself free.
We'll, come" he said.
She felt that all doors would fly
open at his bidding. She felt herself
swept powerless at his will with all
the yielding in her soul that she had
felt in her body when his arms were
around her. He had taken her by the
hand-he was leading her out into the
gusty night, where all lights flared-
the gas-lights marching up the street
over the hill into the unknown, and
the lights cleaning at her like eyes

passed through the carriage door that
gaped for her. The will that had
swept her out of the door was moving
her beyond her own will, as it had
moved her that morning in the gar
den, beyond all things that she knew.
There was no feeling left in her but
the despair of extreme surrender.
She found herself in the carriage.
She saw his face in the carriage door
as pale as anger, yet not angry; it
was some bigger thing that looked at
her from his eyes. He looked long
while, as If he bade her never to for.

Cameron had saved his life.
Norton was d young man full Of am
