CLEAR HEADED
Head Bookkeeper Must Be Reliable.

The chief bookkeeper in large
business house in one Of our great
Western cities speaks of the harm
coffee did for him. (Tea is just as
injurious because it contains caffeine,
the same drug found in coffee.)

of Postum little over two years ago
and we have used it ever since, to the
entire exclusion of tea and coffee. II

About three and half years ago
I had an attack of pneumonia, which

pepsia, or rather, to speak more cor

CHAPTER XIV-contInued.

A singing blush-a blush of anger
and outraged pride as much as of
modcsty-surged up over Agatha's
face She was silent a moment. and
in that moment learned what it was

Il have not been living with this
man, in any sense of the term, Mrs.
Stoddard ! will say this once for all
to YOU though / never would, in any
other conceivable situation, reply to
such an implication. You have no
right to say or think such things"
"Wickedness must be rebuked of the
Lord" intoned Mrs. Stoddard.
Are you his mouthpiece?" said Aga
tina scornfully. But she was rebuked
for her scorn by Mrs. Stoddards look.
Her eyes rested on Agatha's face with
pleading and patience, as If she were
a world mother, agonizing for the sal
walton of her children.
TT is his command to pluck the
brand from the burning" said Susan
Stoddard. "Ungodly example is sin.
and earthly love often a snare for
youthful feet"
AS Agatha listened to Mrs. Stod-
dard's strange plea, the instinct with
in her which. from the first moment OF
the interview, had recoiled from this
fanatical but intensely spiritual wom-
an. found it's way, as 1t were, into the
light. Such was the power of her sim
cerity. that, in spite of the extraor-
binary character of the interview, Aga
tha's heart throbbed with new COM
prchension which was almost love. She
stepped closer to Susan Stoddard, her
tail figure overlapping the others
sturdy one, and took one of her strong
work-hardened hands
Mrs. Stoddard, this man has never

him-a plain, high-hearted gentleman.

And now come with me, and help US
to save a life. You cannot, you must
not. refuse me now"
The subtle changes of the mind are
hard to trace and are often obscure
even TO tho eye of science; but every
day those changes make or mar our
ioy. Susan Stoddard looked for long
minute UP into the vivid face bending
over hers. while her spirit, even as
Agatha's mad done. pierced the hedge
which serarated them, and compre-
bended something of the goodness in
the others soul. Finally she laid her
other hand over Agatha's. enclosing
If in a strong clasp. Then, with
certain pathetic pride in her subm1s-
sion. she said:
II have been wrong. Agatha; / will
