a thing to you ought to be sufficient
answer, should think" was her mild
retort.
81 don't see why" Raymer objected.
What would you think If Gertrude
did such a thing?"
"Oh, well; that is different In the
first place, Gertrude wouldn't do it,
and"
Precisely. And Miss Grierson
shouldn't have done it. 1t is because
she can do such things that a few
think she wouldn't be pleasant per
son to know, socially"
But why?" insisted Raymer, with
masculine obtuseness.
It was his sister who undertook to
make the reason plain to him.
ct isn't anything she does, or
doesn't do, particularly; it is the at
mosphere in which she lives and
moves and has her being. If it weren't
for her fathers money, she would be
well, 1t is rather hard to say just
what she would be. But she always
makes me think of the bonanza
people-the pick and shovel one day
and a million the next. I believe she
is frank little savage, at heart"
II don't" the brother contended,
doggedly. "She may be a trif1e new
and fresh for Wahaska, but she is
clever and bright, and honest enough
to ignore a social code which makes
a mock of sincerity and virtue of
hypocrisy. 1 like her all the better
for the way she fared out at me
There isn't one young woman in a
thousand who would have had the
nerve and the courage to do it,
"Or the impudence," added Mrs
Raymer, when her son had left the
room. Then: 81 do hope Edward isn't
going to let that girl come between
him and Charlotte!"
The daughter laughed.
Il should say there is room for q
regiment to march between them, as
| it is. Miss Gilman took particular
pains to let him know what, train they
! were leaving on, and 1 happen tc
know he never went near the station
to tell them good-by."

CHAPTER K.
Good Samaritans.

Since she had undertaken to show
Wahaska precisely how to deport it
self in the conventional field, Miss
Grierson had telegraphed her father
to meet her in st. Louis on her return
from Florida.
When Jasper Grierson travelled alone
he was democratic enough to be salts
fed with section in the body of the
car. But when Margery's tastes were
to be consulted, the drawing-room was
none too good. Indeed, as it transpired
on the journey northward from st.
Louis, the Anita's drawing-room
proved to be not good enough.
ct is simply a crude insult, the
way they wear out their old, broken
down cars on US up here!" she pro-
tested to her father. you ought to
do something about it"
Jasper Grierson's smile was a CAPT.
talistic requirement. and some of his
fellow-townsmen described it as "cast
iron" But for his daughter it was
always indulgent.
81 don't own the railroad yet,
Madgie; you'll have to give me little
more time" he pleaded, clipping the
tip from a black cigar OF heroic pro-
portions and reaching for the box of
safety matches.
'tI'n begin now, If you are going to
smoke that dreadful thing in this
stuffy little den,' was the unf1lial re-
tort; and the daughter found a maya
zine and exchanged the drawing-room
| with its threat of asphyx1ation for a
seat in the body of the car. Halfway
down the car one of the sections was
still curtained and bulkheaded; of
! course, the occupant of the middle
section must be i'll. Quite suddenly
her interest became acute Who was
the sick one, and why was he, or she,
travelling without on attendant?
With Margery Grierson, to question
was to ascertain; and the Pullman
| conductor, once more checking his lia-
grams in Section IL, offered the readi-
est means of enlightenment. A few
minutes later Margery rejoined her
father in the private compartment
do you remember the nice-loeking
young man who sat at the table with
us in the Choteau last night?' she
began abruptly.
The gray-wolf Jasper nodded He
had an excellent memory for faces.
What did you think Of him?" The
query followed the nod like nimbIe
boxers return blow.
81 thought he paid whole lot more
attention to you than he did to his
supper. Why?"
He is on this car; sick with a fever
OF some kind, and out of his head. He
is going to Wahaska-"
How do you know it's the same
one?"
81 made the conductor take me Il
see him. He talked to me in Italian
. and called me 'Carlotta mia'''
"Humph! he didn't look like dago
! HE isn't; it's just because he Il

Relieves The WORST
CASES OF CATARRH
Think "Hyomei the Most Wonderful
Treatment for Catarrh Ever
Discovered"

Do not try to cure catarrh by using
sprays or lotions; it cannot be cured
in that manner. The only way in
which this too common disease can
be fully relieved is through direct
application to the affected parts that
will kill the bacilli of catarrh and
prevent their growth
Breathing the air of Hyomei is the
only known method of treatment that
can really accomplish this. 1t is the
simplest, most pleasant and probably
the most reliable treatment for ca
tarrh that has ever been discovered.
The complete Hyomei outfit is i'll
expensive and consists of an inhaler,
dropper and sufficient Hyomei to last
several weeks. This will effect in
slant relief in ordinary cases, but for
chronic and deep-seated cases of ca
tarrh, longer use may be necessary
and then an extra bottle of Hyomei
can be obtained for tritling sum. 1t
is not alone the bestc it might be
called the only method of treating
catarrh, but it is also the most eco
nomical.
W. l.. Gokay has so much conf
dence in the power of Hyomei TO re-
lieye catarrh, that he will for limit
ed time, sell this medicine under his
PERSONAL guarantee to refund the
money if the purchaser can say that
it did not benefit.
