Helen awoke one morning with a
strange feeling that she had never had

alyze it. for she felt perfectly we'll
But there was an unsatisfied some
thing in her heart that she could not
explain. At breakfast she looked cur
iously across at Warren and for the
first time since she could remember
her eyes were critical
She noticed that his tie was careless

not like and collar that was not be

loved Warren. At this thought she
laughed. How absurd. Love Warren,
of course she did. And at that mo-

speculative eyes.
He grinned good-naturedly, why

Not much. How would YOU like

As general rule Helen would have
responded eagerly to the invitation,
but this morning her heart did not
leap ecstatically at the prospect of a
drive with Warren

What's the matter with you?"

Warren was too busy folding his pa-
per and getting up from the table to
notice that Helen said nothing more.
Helen herself was surprised at the fact
that she felt no elation at Warren's
agreeable humor. She was always
wanting him to show her more atten-
ton. She spent plenty of time wish
ing that Warren were more like other
men that she knew. and this morning,
everything seemed different. She
could not understand herself

left her room, work and dressed hast

the sunshine and then drop in and see
someone. That would cheer her up.

down in the elevator As soon as she
emerged into the glare of the street

slowly. but she grew warm anyway.

Let the reader put up, little note ON
her bureau, on her desk, and at the

the happiness of any household. An
anxious, respondent face, fretful,
complaining voice, will make every one
uncomfortable
A Woman's nerves are more truly the
cause of worry than outside troubles.
The nerves ARE of woman's body the
