Ward had been shot on Sunday
night BY the following Wednesday
he was out of danger.
On that same Wednesday the rector
Of Saint Jude's brought himself and
his rheumatism back to his parish.
For three days Elinor had hardly
slept or eaten. Never once had she
been In Wards room, but always, day
and night, she was just outside. When
on that Wednesday evening the doctor
said Ward would live she went down
once more into her garden.
Many times during those three days
had Elinor tried to pray to Wards
God and found herself voiceess and
inarticulate. But now, out Of the
depth Of her great relief, came yelling
the first prayer of her life She stood
waist-deep among her phox and lark
spur.
II thank thee" she said. II thank
thee"
Nothing had been heard Of Huff.
The assault on the assistant rector sof
Saint Jude's had been Of Il line with
the other mysterious happenings
around the village. The little town
was hag-ridden with fear. Extra con-
stables had been sworn In. and from
tlle hall, during her long night vlgils,
EfinOr had seen many lighted win
dows, where there had been but the
one.
The problem of her future began to
obsess her. II was plainly impossible
to stay on here--not that she feared
exposure she was quite past fear
but the thought of going on with her
lite was intolerable. To meet Ward,
to- see ngain the scorn and loathing in
hie eyes, more than all. to continue to
deserve then--thOse were the things
that to Ellnor seemed worse than
death itself.
All the philosophy that old Hilary
had taught her failed her now. The
revolt Of the individual against laws
made for the masses--what had 1t
brought> her but isolation and grief?
OF what use was revolt? All must go
through the mills Of the gods. She
knew that now. There were no ex-
ceptions. And something else she had
learned: that II one IL to live through
great ycrlses one must have a. higher

Improvement on Tanlac so
wonderful her friends
hardly recognize her.

sui another link is added TO the
long chain of evidence regarding the
remarkable merits OF Tanlac in the
case Of Mrs Esta Nelson, 27o6k
whose phenomenal increase in
weight, health and strength by the
use of the medicine, was reported BY
her husband. NJ J. Nelson recently.
Mr. Nelson said:
Ny wife had been suffering for
sometime from what appeared to be
q general rundown condition and
nervousness. She had no appetite
and hardly ate enough, it seemed to
ne, TO keep her alive She was SO
nervous she couldn't get any sound
sleep and would get up in the morn
ings tired and lifeless and without
any energy. don't know what really
was the matter with her and can't
describe her case better than to say,
II was lust a general breakdown.
Any way, nothing did her any good
and she seemed to be losing weight
and getting weaker every day and
her condition was 2 constant source
Of worry and anxiety to me
4 had read and heard SO much
about what Tanlac was doing for
others that I decided to see if ii
would help my wife and I have never
seen anyone pick up so fast. The day
she started on Taniac she weighed only
one hundred and five pounds She
six-making an actual gain OF
rwenty-one pounds. all on three bot
Ties mind you-and honestly she
looks like a different person. No
one could have a better appetite and
she eats just any and everything she
wants and digests IL perfectly. Her
nervousness has entirely disappeared,
she sleeps fine every night and gets
up in the mornings full of life and
energy. She looks so different that
people who haven't seen her since
She began taking Tanlac hardly
recognize her on first sight as being
the same woman She says she feels
better than she has in a long time
and thinks there's no medicine in the
world like Taulac. she keeps II in
the house all the time now and from
the way il has acted in her case I
wouldn't give a few bottle of it for
all the other medicines I ever saw.
We have the best of reasons for
think.o~ wei Of Tanlac. Such a med
icine deserves all the praise that
can be given il"
