his response to this. 2
She shook her head and then turned
to look out of the window. He sat
back In his seat and for many miles,
with deep perplexity in his eyes, stud
led her half-averted face. The old
uneasiness returned. Was this OBJ
stacle, after all, 80 great that 1t could
not be overcome?
They lunched together, but were
singularly reserved all through the
meal. A plan was growing in her
brain, cruel but effective plan that
made her despise herself and yet con-
tanned the only means of escape from
an even more cruel situation.
He drove with her from the station
to the small hotel of Trafalgar square.
There we're no rooms to be had. 1t
was the week of Ascot and the city
was still crowded with people who
awaited only the royal sign to break
the fetters that bound them to Lon
don. Somewhat perturbed, she al
lowed him to escort her to several ho-
tells of like chAacter. Failing in
each case, she was in despair. At
last she plucked up the courage to
say to him, not without constraint and
embarrassment:
II think, Brandon, IL you were to
allow me to apply alone to one of
these places l could get in without
much trouble"
Good Lord!" he gasped, going very
red with dismay. What fool T."
"I'll try the Savoy" she said quick

was the picture of distress.

eight" he said, stopping the taxi at
once. "Goodby till then"

CHAPTER XIV.
Crossing the Channel.


Booth, restless with vague uneasi-
ness that had come over him during
the night, keeping him awake until
nearly dawn, was hard put during the
early hours of the forenoon to find
occupation for his interest until a
seasonable time arrived for appearing
at Southlook. He was unable to ac-
count for this feeling of uncertainty
and irritation.
At nine he set out to walk over to
Southlook, realizing that he should
have to spend an hour in profitless
gossip with the lodge keeper before
presenting himself at the villa, but
somehow relishing the thought that
even 80 he would be nearer to Hetty
than If he remained in his own door
yard.
Halfway there we was overtaken by
Sara's big French machine returning
from the village. The car came to a
standstill as he stepped aside to let
it pass, and Sara herself leaned over
and cordially invited him to get in and
ride home with her.
What an early bird you are," he ex-
claimed as he took his seat beside
her.
She was not in mood for airy per-
sifiage, as he soon discovered.
Miss Castleton has gone up to
town, Mr.. Booth" she said rather
lifelessly. 81 have just taken her to
the station. She caught the eight
thirty"
He was at once solicitous. "No bad
news, l hope?" There was no thought
in his mind that her absence was
other than temporary.
She Is not coming back, Brandon"
She had not addressed him as Bran
don before.
He stared. "You-you mean" The
words died on his lips.
"She is not coming back" she re-
peated.
An accusing CLEAN leaped into his
eyes.
What has happened, Mrs. Wran-
dall?" he asked.
She was quick to perceive the
change in his voice and manner.
She prefers to live apart from me.
That is all"
When was this decision reached?"
"But yesterday. Soon after she came
in from her walk with you"
"Do-do you mean to imply that
that had anything to do with her leav-
ing your homer" he demanded, with
a flush on his cheek.
She met his look without fiinching.
1T was the beginning"
"You-you criticised her? You took
her to task"
Il notified her that she was to marry
Leslie Wrandall if she marries anyone
at ALL" she said in a perfectly level
tone.
Good Lord, Mrs. Wrandall!"
But she is not going to marry Les
lie."
Il know tt knew it yesterday" he
cried triumphantly. "She loves me,
Sara. Didn't she say as much to
you?"
"Yes. Brandon, she loves you. But
she will not be your wife,"
What is all this mystery? Why
can't she be my wife? What is there
to PREVENT"
She regarded him with dark, inscru-
table eyes. Many seconds passed be-
fore she spoke.
would you want her for your wife
if you knew she had belonged to an
other man."
He turned very cold. The palms of
his hands were wet, as with ice-water.
Something dark seemed to fit before
his eyes.
81 will not believe that of her." he
said, shaking his head with an air of
finality.
THAT is not an answer to my ques-
ton"
"Yes, I would still want her." he
declared steadily.
Il merely meant to put you to the
harshest test she said, and there was

for my living" had been Hetty's stub
brought to bear upon her.
Then let me put it in another light.
II Ia vital to me, of course, that you
should keep up the show of affiuence
for a while at least. think ! have
made that clear to you. But here is
another side to the matter; the ques-
ton of recompense."
"Recompense?" cried Hetty sharply.
Without your knowing it, l have
virtually held you prisoner all these
months, condemned in my own judg-
ment IL not in the sight of the law.
/ have taken the law unto myself. You
were not convicted of murder in this
unitarian court Of mine, but of an
other sin. For fifteen months you
have been living under the shadow of
crime you did not commit. l was
reserving complete punishment for
you in the shape of an ignoble mar
riage, which was to have served two
bitter ends. Well, l had the truth
from you. l believe you to be abso-
lutely innocent of the charge ! held
over you, for which condemned you
without a hearing. Then, why should
I not employ my own means of max
ing restitution"
You have condescended to believe
in me. That is all I ask"
True, that is all you ask. But is
it altogether the fair way out of it?
To illustrate: our criminal laws are
less kind to the innocent than to the
guilty. Our law courts find a man
guilty and he is sent to prison Later
on. he is found to be innocent-abso-
lutely innocent, What does the state
do in the premises? 1t issues formal
pardon-a mockery, pure and simple
and the man is set free. 1t all comes
to curt, belated apology for an error
on the part of justice. No substantial
recompense Is offered. He is merely
pardoned for something he didn't do.
The state, which has wronged him,
condescends to pardon him! Think of
1t! 1t is the same as II man knocked
another down and then said, before he
removed his foot from the victims
neck: I pardon you freely My ia
ther was opposed to the system we
have-that all countries have-of par
doning men who have been unjustly
condemned. The innocent victim is
pardoned in the same manner as the
guilty one who comes in for clemency.
l accept my fathers contention that
an innocent man should not be shamed
and humiliated by a pardon. The
court which tried him should reopen
the case and honorably acquit him Of
the crime. Then the state should pay
to this innocent man, dollar for dol
lar, all that he might have earned dur
ing his term of Imprisonment, with an
additional amount for the suffering he
has endured. Not long ago in an ad-
joining state man, who had served
seventeen years of life sentence for
murder, was found to be wholly inno-
cent. What happened? A pardon was
handed to him and he walked out of
prison, broken in spirit, health and
purse. His small fortune had been
wiped out In the futile effort to prove
his innocence. He gave up seventeen
years Of his life and then was par
doned for the sacrifice. He should
have been paid for every day spent in

GENERAL FUNSTON'S
 VERA CRUZ ATTITUDE

Newspaper reports convey the news
 hat General Funston has asked the war department to postpone the evacu- ltion of the American troops un'Il October 15th, instead of October 1st.
 The reason given for this postpone ment is that many supporters of Oid 4uerta who are still in Vera Cr'.s Will be at the mercy of the Con IT. tionalists.
 The humanitarian purpose Of the imer:can general is very co rmcn
 lie: although there is no raas1n 10 }elieve that the Constitutionalists will act in any manner to inspre feGr But there is a well founded suspision hat the political proteges of General Funston have used the protection O. he American flag to plot counter revolutions against CarranZa right un- Ter the shadow of Mexico City; or icers of the federal army spoke quite openly of the revolt which they eX- pected to start in OaXaca.
 Among the refugees in Vera Cruz there are cientificos, huertistas, feli- cistas; the same ones who have been swing mislading information to the American reporters. Did these mis- chief makers expect to have the Amer ican troops make a permanent home in Vera Cruz?
 Among the refugees there are sev- eTal prominent politicians whose poli- tical activities have made the.r resi- dence undesirable in their own cOun- try. Vera Cruz, besides the useful ser vices by General Funston as a fumi- gator, needs another General Cleanup in a political sense.

NLR SHIPS ARE SOLID
 NALL THRU NORTH SEA

LONDON, Sept 2S.-A solid wall'' of warships is thrown across the northern part of the North Sea, ac- cording to the captain of a British trawler who has just arrived from Iceland. The skipper said it was "ab- solutely impossible for any foe to break through undetected," so con- 5tant and thorough was the patrol to the north. It was his own experience to be halted and searched and aft 9r being released, his boat was followed by two torpedo boats until it reaahed it's destination.
 The thoroughness of the patrol was further testified to by another North sea skipper. His trawler was lying along shore, when shortly after ln1u- night it suddenly found itself hemmeo n by a huge black object which proved to be a British cruiser It's officers seemed to have had eats e! es
 From the dark a voice demanded to know the identity of the trawler It vas promptly shouted back.
 "'The name is quite correct, sir, :ame another mysterious voice astern )f us,' said the skipper "A sub- marine had crept up behind us and cad our name. Although all our crew had come on deck to see what was lappening, not enc of them had seen he submarine appear. The whole 'pisode only occupied a few minutes md the cruiser, after wishing us Good morning. and plenty of fishing dis

HOW ID LIVE
 ONE HUNDRED YEARS
THIS IS THE NAME OF A NEW BOOK BY EUGENE CHRIS
 THAN, F. S. D.

Eugene Christian, F. s. D., the worlds greatest Food Scientist, has just published a new book called How to Live 100 Years"
 This book tells you what to eat according to your age, your work and the time of the year. It teaches you how to select, how to combine and SO as to establish perfect digestion and assimilation of food and perfect elimination of waste. In other words, it teaches you how to cure all stomach and intestinal disorders by removing their causes, which Is wrong eating.
 If you have indigestion, gas, fermen- tation, sour stomach or any such dis orders after a meal, this book tells you how to put the remedy on your table at the next meal.
 Dr. Christian shows that all animals bow to proportion your food at meals except man live about eight times as long as it takes them to get their growth. If man should do this he would live nearly 200 years; but civi- lized man dies at the average age O: 39. He begins to lose his teeth, his eyes and his hair, and drops into his grave only a few years after he Is grown.
 Dr. Christian shows that 22 per cent of all the human beings born into the world die before they are one year old. Twenty-Five per cent more die before their fifth birthday, anG more than half of the human race die before they are twenty-five.
 All other animals on the globe live eight times as long as it takes them to get their growth Man breathes the same air, drinks the same water, ives under the same sunshine, but liffers from his brother animals only jn his eating, therefore Dr. Christian shows conclusively that this appalling discrepancy must be on account O. lis eating habits and he has proved that his theory is true by curing over 23,000 people within the past ten years by teaching them what to eat and how to eat. How to Live 100 Years gives the secret of his methods
 This book does not disarrange O. Upset the family table. It teaches the housewife what foods the meal should 0e composed of, so as to make them chemically harmonious and perfectly ligestible and healthy.
 This book is beautifully bound in velum, and gold lettered. Send one lollar to Dr. Eugene Christian, 213 West 18th Street, New York City, and Jou will receive this life-saving book oy return mail, and if it is not worth ts weight in gold your money will be promptly refunded to you.

BULGARIAN GENERAL
 NOW LEADS RUSSIANS

LONDON, Sept. 26.-One of the most successful generals on the Rus sian side in the advance on Lemberg was General Dimitrieff, the well known Bulgarian general who led the third army, which formed the left wing of the Bulgarian forces in the great battle of Lule Burgas on Octo- Der 29 and 30, 1912. Previous to that he had won a signal victory over the Turks at Kirk Kilisse. After the end of the war he was sent as ambassador to St. Petersburg, that is to say, to 2etrograd, where he joined the Rus sian army, step for which he was ;ast off by Bulgaria.

 There is not a health officer in the country who is not in need of the support of such a reorganization. Why should they not have it?
 Why should our people give SC much money to treat" with the enc my AFTER an attack and so little to PREVENT the attack?
 Vital statistics are bringing many evidences of physical degeneration, es recially in middle life and old age.
 They indicate that two persons die now from degeneratve dipeases !of the heart, arteries and blood vessels where one died 30 years ago.
 The mortality rate obove 45 has steadily increased, and preventable life-waste in the younger ages is still excessive.
 The birth-rate is declining.
 Our losses are increasing in the prime of life.
 A volunteer army of education is needed to check the enemy, especially at this point. If we can maintain civic improvement societies why not a citizen improvement society of this sort?
 America has already reduced life waste by the educational process suf- iciently to demonstrate it's wonderful life-saving possibilities.
 A social service of immense value would be rendered the American peo pie if every newspaper in the land would see how many of it's readers it could pledge or enlist in this great work of strengthening the vitality O. our race.
 Nothing can possibly be of more value to a nation, or a race, than the ives of those who compose it.
