Mr.. Hedges introduced himself, feeling
horribly foolish in the presence OF the
lovely serving girl, and wishing she
would take herself Off But she lin
gered effectively, whispering softly:
'Shall l lower the window, mad
anne? Is ii too cool? Your bottle,
madame ~
And the guest rubbed his hand
swiftly across his face to hide the
slight twitching of his lips.
Then the model maid disappeared,
and presently the sweet daughter OF
the house, charming in the gray silk
null and satin slippers, appeared, smil-
ing, talking, full of vivacity and life.
And after while the dashing tennis
girl strolled in, smiling inscrutably
into the eyes that turned so quizzically
toward her. For time all went well.
The chaperoning aunt occasionally
lifted dainty cologne bottle to her
sensitive nostrils, and the daughter of
the house carried out her girlish vi
vacity to the point of utter WEAKNESS.
Connie said little, but her soul ex-
banded with the fOretaste of triumph.
"Dinner is served, madame" said
the soft voice at the door, and they
all walked out sedately. Carol ad-
justed the invalid auntie's shawl once
more, and was ready to go to the
Kitchen when quiet:
Wont Miss Carol sit down with
us?" made her stop dead in her tracks.
He had pulled chair from the cor
ner up to the table for her, and she
dropped into it. She put her elbows
on the table, and leaning her dainty
chin in her hands, gazed thoughtfully
at Connie, whose eyes were bright with
the fires of victory.
"Ah, Connie, have hopes Of you
yet-you are Improving" she said gen.
tly. "Will you run out to the kitchen
and bring me a bowl of soup, my
child"
And then came laughter, full and
free-and in the midst of 1t Carol
looked up, wiping her eyes, and said :
"I'm sorry now l didn't let you kiss
me, just to shock father"
But the visit was a great success.
Even Mr. Starr realized that. The
millionaire's son remained in Mount
Mark four days, the cynosure of all
eyes, for as Carol said whats the
use of bOthering with a millionaire's
son if you can't brag about himf"
And his devotion TO his fathers col
lege chum was such that he wrote to
him regularly for a long time after,
and came westward now and again TO
renew the friendship so auspiciously
begun.
"But you can't call him a problem,
father" said Carol keenly. "They
aren't problematic until they discrimi-
nate. And he doesn't. He's as fond
of Comics conscience as he is of my
complexion, as far as / can see." She
rubbed her velvet skin regretfully. She
had two pimples yesterday and he
never even noticed them. The she
leaned forward and smiled. Father,
! you keep an eye on Connie. There's

mark, Carol turned her attention to

CAPT. ARCHIE ROOSEVELT
WITH RETURNED WOUNDED
Among About 800 Invalided
Brought Home-Left Arm
Shattered by Bullet.

AN ATLANTIC PORT, September 3.
Capt Archie Roosevelt, third son of
Col. Theodore Roosevelt, has arrived
here from France, where he was
wounded in the fighting around Can
tigny in April. Capt. Roosevelt is one
of eighteen officers and about 800 nom
commissioned officers and men who
have been invaded home for distri-
tails and who have been landed here.
In addition to having his left arm
shattered by a German machine-gun
bullet while leading his men in a
charge Capt. Roosevelt is suffering
from what he described as a bad case
of nerves." His arm is partially par
alyzed and it is likely he will not be
able to return to active duty for many
months. He declined to say much
about the action in which he was
wounded, saying that as a matter of
fact he remembered very little about
it.
Among the officers coming ashore
with Capt. Roosevelt was Maj. BARLEY
A. Moon of Birmingham, Ala. Maj.
Moon, who was attached to the Rain
Lorraine sector. also had his left arm
shattered by a bullet. 1t is said most
of the 300 men, as we'll as the officers
who arrived, will not be returned to
France because of the severe nature
of their wounds.

You say e"The man who could
foreten illness would make for
tune!" Of course no man can
in the sense you mean. But you
can tell pretty accurately what to
expect your own body to do.
How?
Get this simple physiology:
Your body machine has to be
repaired. It also must have fuel
to supply heat and energy. Your
food supplies both repair material
and fuel. But a furnace always
produces ashes and clinkers. If
these accumulate, the furnace
becomes clogged and cannot work
properly.
If your bowels become clogged-
you suffer from constipation.
Perhaps you hurry to work or
play and neglect to obey Natures
call. Waste matter stagnates in
the bowels. You go right on eat
ing, drinking, working. What
happens? The constipation be-
comes established. Waste matter
undergoes decay, fermentation and
germ action. Poisons are formed,
absorbed, carried all over the body.
They attack the weakest part of
you first.
Then you know you're sick. In
reality you ue been gettingsicksince
