or symptoms of some other ailment caused
by the lack of iron in the blood. This
thing may go for years, while the

said an operation might be necessary
Tiny husband was desperately M,
when these remarks from an elderly
man, who had called to see him,
made me have good laugh in an
other room. While trying to find a
comfortable spot a sharp pain made
my husband groan, and his caller
said: Sure, you could have worse
pain. You remind me of a man two

stronger. and the captains eyes rest
ed often upon her. She had an ap-
pealing feminine manner, which drew
him to her. Sarah was not appealing.
but she was a fine woman
The loneliness of his house began
to be appalling to the captain. For
the first time in his life he wondered
why he had not married. He won
dered, too, why he had sooner
recognized Sarah's competency and
beauty. He had feeling that Sarah
could do without him, but that Violet
could not. If he asked Sarah to mar
ry him, Violet would be left alone
and he was sorry for Violet.
