Meanwhile the two figures above
had pushed through the tangle into
a circular sunny space where stood
short round pillar of red onyx. 1t was
a sun-dial, its vine-clad disk cut of
gray polished stone in which its metal
tongue was socketed Round the outer
edge of the disk ran an inscription
In archaic lettering. Valiant pulled
away the clustering Ivy leaves and
read: Il count no hours but the hap
by ones"
IF that had only been true!" he
said
ut is true. See how the vines hid
the sun from 1t. 1t ceased to mark

Which do you love the most now?"
He leaned slightly toward her, one
hand on the diaps time-notched rim.
Don't you know?" he said in lower
voice. could any other spot mean to
me what that acre under the hemlocks
means?"
Her face was turned from him, her
fingers pulling at the drifting vine, and
a splinter of sunlight tangled in her
hair like a lace of firefiies.
Il could never forget it, he con-
tinued The thing that spoiled my
fathers life happened there, yet there

"Ah, let me speak! l want to tell |

to see you again in this life, l should
always treasure it. If | died of thirst
in some Sahara, it would be the last
thing | should remember-your face
would be the last thing l should see!
II T."
In the silence there was the sound
of a slow football on the gravel walk,
and at the same moment he saw a
magical change. Shirley drew back.
The soft gentian blue of her eyes
The lips that an instant
before had been tremulous, parted in
D low delicious laugh. She swept him
a deep curtsey.

said gaily, "for most knightly COM

A silence fell Looking at the tall

Valiant's laugh rang out over the
lake-to be answered by sudden
sharp screech from the terrace, where
the peacock strutted, a blaze OF span

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is Sign You Have Been

When you wake up with baekache

generally means you have been eating
too much meat, says a well-known au-
thority. Meat forms uric acid whict
overworks tie kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood and they
become sort of paralyzed and loggy
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them, like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
body's urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels Of
ten get sore, water scalds and you
are obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night.
Either consult good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts

ter before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys Will then act fine

COLUMBUS, Ca, Nov. 2.-The Col
umbus Industrial High school boys de-
feated the Americas team Saturday af-
ternoon at the Driving Park by a
score of 13 to 0. The locals played
a corking good game and only once
were they in danger of being beaten.
Their offensive work was very clever
and they seemed to have their signals
down in good shape and their tackle
work was a great deal more deadly
than the ends and halves have ever
shown before. The visitors had fine
material and with little more practic-
ing on the offensive, they will be able
to make it interesting for most of the
prep teams of the state.
On the offensive work, Chester,
Pease and Lockhart played a great
game. Each of these men pulled off
some very classy broken field run
ming. Lockhart intercepted a for
ward pass and ran a broken field for
seventy yards for touchdown. He
also plowed through the line for a
number of nice gains. Mum pulled off
one or two pretty runs, carrying the
pigskin over the goal for the first
score on twenty-yard end run.
The visitors showed about three
men that seemed to be in good form
and who seemed to know the game All
of their back fields were good on Of
fensive work, and their tackles figured
in the gains The line held at times,
usually when the locals were close to
the goal line.
The game as a whole, was one of the
best played amateur games that has
been played here in a good while,
and it inspired more interest than the
games of the first part of the season,
and to lovers of the sport some very
good playing was offered.
The game was Clearly played and
very little squabbling was heard from
either side.
