CHAPTER XXI.
Facing the Situation.

Enoch had never been a drinking
man. The sight Of drunkenness had
frequently aroused in him a species
of stomachic revolt; therefore mere
physical repulsion had done much to
keep him from one form Of debauch-
cry. During the days of utter desc
lation that followed his sisters de-
parture he turned to whiskey as the
sufferer from insomnia seeks relief In
an opiate. 1t did not bring ease, how
ever, either of body or mind. He went
about in dull. half-sickened stupor,
hating himself and the world. One
night, in lonely room of the hotel
the darkness for hours thinking; then
like flash he saw himself. 1t seemed
to him that for a second a shutter
somewhere, perhaps in some remote
lobe Of his brain-had flashed open
and he saw not only his present con-
dition, but his future. 1t was not a
pleasant phantom.
A half-empty bottle Of whiskey stood
at his elbow. He stared at it for a
minute with a scowl, as IL it were an
actual enemy. A feeling Of nausea
crept over him. He lifted 1t, carried 1t
to the wash-bowl, and poured the
liquor down the drain-pipe. Then he
laid the empty bottle on a tray and
set 1t outside the door. He filled his
pipe with tobacco, pulled a chair to
the window, sat down, and stared at
the lights Of the city. He fell into
one of his interpretive moods. He
began to trace backward every step
he had taken since the day he exacted
the forfeit of Merry's bond. He felt
like a vessel which had slipped its
mornings and had been numerically
buffeted by one tempest after another.
Each one had done it's work so ruth
lessly that he was a human derelict
left swamped and scuttled. The phrase
"a human derelict" stuck obstinately
in his brain; 1t described him wildly.
Already he had had more than his
deserts. The vengeance of Zilla Paget
was the last straw. The woman s
image flashed before his eyes: he
heard her satanic laugh and saw a
fieeting vision of his picturesque gold
en-haired lovliness as he had slammed
the door and left his home.
Wentworth gritted his teeth savage
ly, then he locked at his watch. It
was close to midnight. He went
downstairs, paid his bill, ordered a
carriage, and drove to the Waverly
Place house. AS he stood fitting the
key noiseiessly into the lock his heart
beat unanimously for a second or
two. He opened the door stealthily
and passed through the vestibule. The
house was still and lamp burned
dimly in the hall, as Jason always left
it until his master returned. He hung
his hat on the rack, stole upstairs to
his own room. switched on the cleo
tricity. and glanced about. He locked

enter the office; instead, he turned and
walked down Broadway, The rain
had ceased, the sky was clear, and
the stars were shining. He tramped
on heedlessly. He realized suddenly
that he was far down town in the
business heart of the city. Overhead
hung the sign of an old-fashioned no.
tel. He opened the swinging doors
and walked to the desk.
Il want a ROOM" he said peremptor-
lily.
What price?" asked the clerk.
Il don't give a damn about price.
1 want a room where 1t is quiet, where
there is a good bed, and where 1 can
sleep as if-as IL l were dead"

DR.. Leonard Hill, the famous Lon
don physician, contributes to the dis
cussion on vitamines the assertion
that those contained in wheat are not
destroyed by baking nor are those
that prevent scurvy killed by boiling.
He says all the evidence goes to show
that the vitamines in milk are unaf-
fected by pasteurization and that ster.
ilized milk Is therefore suitabla for

runty little carcass with one swipe."
Enoch stared at the rest of the play
through moody eyes. When the cur.
tain fell on the second act Zilla Paget
appeared on the stage alone to meet
uproarious applause mingled with
jeers and kissing. Wentworth gripped
the arm Of his chair as he watched
her sweep the house with triumphant
gaze. A brand of hate which has the
red of murder in it tore at his heart
He rose, tossed his coat across his
arm, CROPPED beneath the chair for his

Statement
to Milk
Producers

With the issuing of the May pay checks of the
Clio Condensed Milk Co., wish to say that have
become affiliated with the Company in official and
managing capacity and will map out policy of safe,
conservative business methods.
The Company will not start out by paying too
will endeavor to pay at all times price that will be
just and fair to its patrons and at the time
give the Company profit. My twenty years exper-
fence in the produce business has taught that it
is the wise policy to foster and maintain business
and create confidence and to do this it is necessary
to do the fair thing by patrons and customers The
Company has large investment and profitable
business depends on getting large volume of bust
ness. which can only be got by good prices and fair
dealing. 1t would be very foolish policy to destroy
the business by paying low prices, and the Company
will not do so, Notwithstanding all rumors and yarns
that may be afoat.
1t will not be the policy of this Company to
knock cheese factories any other business but will
devote all its energies to boosting its business
respectfully ask it's patrons customers and all that
would like to the business success, and become
source of much good to the community, to boost
Knocks have place in any thriving community.
