gested he was for the time at least
fully at peace with the world.
He came forward with eager eX-
plantations. My impudent Neal "eN-
planning" forsooth-he whose motto
had ever been: Never explain, never
apologize, never retract. Get the
thing done and let 'em howl" But
now he said:
Wasn't it funny how Phoebe and
I just happened to meet at the, cor
ner?"
"Of course, he just happened to
be walking toward the avenue"
added Phoebe roguishly.
Neal crimsoned, and l felt my lips
twitch at the dear, delicious young
ness of it all. Jim slipped his arm
about Phoebe, and she nestled up
against him as if happily surprised at
his sudden air of protection.
That gentle, tender sweetness of
jim for his little sister lasted well
through dinner, and the little rogue
teased him about it.
MY Jimmie is nice to me now
that Wee isn't here-isn't he, Babb-
sie?" she said, brandishing a leaf of
romaine at him in challenge to be
other than mice" to her.
Don't call Anne by that name"
ordered Jim.
"Why not? Neal does" asked
Phoebe, and l saw both my boys
vince, but before either of them
had been forced to a defense of his
position, the girl went on: Il feel
specially happy tonight, Jim-be-
cause-Bab-Anne was so sweet to
me, and asked me over here the in
slant l had let it pop out that Wee
and Mrs. Bryce had left me alone. l
Just feel as If Anne were my really
truly sister to-night-more than Nee

Sweetheart" murmured Jim,
squeezing my hand under the table.
Neal was watching Phoebe intently.
lie was scarcely eating anything. His
eyes seldom left her face. One might
have said that he was learning it by
heart-as if he were never to see it
again. And the little rogue shed her
occurrences and laughed and dim
pied, and took her brothers tender
ness and my brothers intentness as
a matter of course. Poor little
starved baby, she got little enough of
such tribute-when Virginia was
near to keep her in the background.
Now you two children smoke

very grand air when dinner was
over.
"Righto!" I've a word or two for
Neal. anyway agreed jim.
We had a merry time with the
Q cIearing-up. Phoebe trilled like a
little streamlet released by the warm
spring sun, and kept darting over to
hug me. But when the task was fin
ished and we went in to join boys"
two grave-faced men awaited us
Dour and grim was the atmosphere.
1t sobered Phoebe to the half-sad,
ha'f-terrifed occurrences that's gen.

After a long dragging while of
making conversation, a brighter note
struck through the evening. I 1t was
band on the street. Phoebe ran
to the window Then, all eagerness
and light again, she turned and
cried:
"Soldiers-and Marines. Come
everybody, see our boys march by"

her slim young body up against me

Stomach Dead
Man Still Lives

People who suffer from sour stOm-
ach, fermentation of food, distress
after eating ana Inulgestion. and seek
relief in large chunks of artificial di-
gestors, are killing their stomachs by
inaction just as surely as the victim
of morphine is deadening and injurlng
beyond repair every nerve in his body.
What the stomach of every sufferer
from indigestion needs is a good pre-
scriptIon that will build up his stom-
ach. put strength, energy and elas-
ticity into it. and make 1t sturdy
enough TO digest a hearty meal with
out artificial aid.
The best prescription for indigestion
ever written is sold by druggists
everywhere and by ii. c. Kennedy and
is rigidly guaranteed to build up the
stomach and cure Indigestion. or
This prescription is named Mi-o-na.
and is sold in small tablet form in
large boxes, for only a few cents, Re-

New Blood Needed

After the grippe, influenza or
other serious illness, the body needs
help to regain the health and
strength sacrificed by the disease.
The blood first of all must be puri-
fled and revitalized. For this pur-
pose physicians know of no more
efficient body builders than Iron,
NuX Nomica, Gentian. Capsicum and
Zinc Phosphide in some form.
In Ihany preparations, however,
the Iron causes constipation, but in
Chase's Blood and Nerve Tablets,
v ich contain all of these tonics,
this is overcome by the addition Of
Aloin.
. The system, therefore, gets all
the benefits of the Iron and other
body builders without any unpleas-
ant after effects. Health and strength
quickly return and pure, healthy
blood is soon circulating through
the body.
Each dose mcAus more vim, vital
ity and strength. Weigh yourself
before taking and watch the result.
DR.. Chase's Blood and Nerve
Tablets are sold by nearly all drug
Gists at sixty cents a box. Special
strength ninety cents.
