self-satisfied air. "You will excuse
me? l have some rather important
letters that l must get off"
Kennedy rose, and Whitney walked
to the door with us, to call his stenog-

We had scarcely said goodbye and

walked along, we could see the little

the Senorita was talking with him

that she really had great deal or re

People Notice It. Drive Them OF
with Dr.. Edwards
Olive Tablets

A pimply face will not embarrass you
much longer if you get package of DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets. The skin
should begin to clear after you have
taken the tablets a few nights.
Cleanse the blood, the bowels and the
liver with DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets,
the successful substitute for calomel-
there's never any sickness or pain after
taking them.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets do that
which calomel does, and just as effec-
lively, but their action is gentle and
safe instead of severe and irritating.
No one who takes Olive Tablets is
ever cursed with "a dark brown TASTE"
a bad breath, dull, istless, mo coed"
feeling, constipation, torpid liver, bad
disposition or pimply face.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil; you will know them by their
olive color.
DR.. Edwards spent years among pa
tients afflicted with liver and bowel
complaints, and Olive Tablets are the
immensely effective result.

remarked Kennedy, tenaciously trying
to force the conversation into the
channel he chose.

narrowing his eyes down into equint
at Kennedy's face, a proceeding that
served by contrast to emphasize the
abnormal condition of the pupils which
had already noticed both in his eyes
and Lockwood's.

paraphrasing what we had already

He slapped his hip pocket. Under

parents can sell or barter-bits of
metal, occasionally pieces of gold or
silver jewelry, now and then a scarf
pin or cuff link, a watch charm and
once in a while a diamond ring or
stud.
''It is hard to believe said one of
Commissioner Goldwaters men, who
has been on a trip of investigation,
"but down at Barren island almost
every foreman or other important per-
sonage wears diamonds-and l am
told that every one of them was picked
up in those heaps of refuse. This, re-
member, after the refuse has been
screened, crushed and examined with
minute care for just such valuable
'pickings.'"
Russians, Slavonians, Poles and ne
groes apparently constitute the pre-
dominant strains of population, al
though other peoples are to be found,
including Italians. Rumor has 1t, in
fact, that the political leader of Bar

one at that. Life down there may
not be all beer and skittles-although
if health department surmises are
correct considerable part OF it may
be beer or liquid cousins thereto.
But so far as can be ascertained by
an outsider the islanders are far from
an unhappy community. They work
hard, it is true, in and around the
reduction plant, at least the men do;
and their womenfolk seem to work
just as hard about their little homes,
while the boys and girls, when they
are not attending school, find plenty
of occupation in searching for hidden
treasure in those huge heaps of refuse.

slipped through the window to have
his hand seized by Juttie, and they
ran towards patch of sheltering
bushes stretching into the woods be-
yond the schoolhouse. There, glori-
ously flushed and painting, Juttie
dropped a little parcel to the ground,
herself, too, and then drew Neal to
her side. She caught his hands and
held them and faced him, her bright
eyes looking down into the yearning,
famished depths of his own.

The little red schoolhouse was de-
serted except for the teacher, busy
at her desk writing lugubriously to
her fiance of the trials and tribu-
lations of the country schoolteacher,
and sad faced, starved looking boy,
seated on high stool and wearing a
ounces cap on his head. He had
twisted himself around so that the
blackboard sheltered him, and, his
forehead pressed against its hard, cold
surface. he was weeping bitterly.
All the afternoon session Neal Morse
had sat thus. the cynosure of all the
scholars. He had missed his lessons
and had been duly decorated. To en-
force her displeasure, Miss Edison had
continued his penance for an hour
after the others had been dismissed.

and dullard to discipline" wrote the
schoolteacher.
II she had said a poor crushed soul,
broken and bleeding, she would have
been nearer the mark. Poor Neal
Morse was what people were making
of him. He was an orphan, his only
relative was a hard-hearted STEP
mother. He had been made to feel
the cruel stings of dependence and
common jest, until his spirit was ex-
tinguished. The children of the
rich spurned him, the more humble
ones found him unsocial and tabooed
him All the time his wistful eyes
sought friend, never to find one.
Abruptly the boy lifted his tear
stained face. A low musical utterance
aroused him
"S-st!"
He looked up to smile in a CRATE
full but wan and forlorn way. The
open window at his side framed an
eager-faced, golden-haired little miss,
warning finger raised. Then it
beckoned, and she said cautiously:
I've got it all thought out about
you. Creep out of the window. l

resisted with utter disregard. But
