"Oh. Myra," she painted, do you
mind leaving this at Ella Flagg's
house? She's promised to fix my
mourning bonnet tonight SOS can go
to Uncle Benny's funeral tomorrow.
Tn much obliged" she called over her
shoulder as she hurried into the house.
Myra turned into the Flagg gate and
went around the path to the side door.
There was light in the sitting room
and Myra peeped through the glass
panels Of the door before she knocked.
What she saw there stayed her hand.
Ella Flagg was all alone in the
room. Myra knew that Mrs. Flagg
was asleep in the adjoining bedroom.
Elias fair head was pressed disconso-
lately into the cushions of the soft
and her thin shoulders were heaving
convulsively.
Clenched in one thin hand was a
crumpled envelope and Myra shrewdly
guessed it might be some old love let
ter from Will Chandler.
Myra's tough little heart suddenly
melted-was this evening repetition
of many other endings of St. valen-
tines day? Had Ella Flagg hoped
each year that she would receive some
message from her absent lover?
And then the full realization of the
misery she had caused brought a
dreadful feeling Of wretchedness to
her heart.
II must tell her." decided Myra sud-
denly; II must tell her about the let
ters have kept back-and when he
comes after her, I must tell him, too,
and I must help her get ready for
her wedding-it's my punishment!
Softly she opened the door and went
inside.

When Will Chandler came home to
claim Ella Flagg for his bride, people
marveled that Myra Watts appeared as
Elias maid Of honor, and they could
not understand what had healed the
breach between the old friends.
Myra might have told you that it
was a bundle Of suppressed letters
and valentines which Ella Flagg had
burned that memorable night when
Myra made confession Of her wrongdo-
ing; but she kept her secret, and so
did Ella, and Will Chandler refused
to listen to her story because he was
so glad and eager to hold Ella in his
arms again.
And when another valentine day
came around Myra sorted the mail.

not only Myra didn't have much to
say about Ella Flagg. Once they had
been close friends, but for many years
they had been estranged.
Elias mute, questioning face ap-
peared at the post Office window.
Myra nodded CURLY, handed Ella q
newspaper and letter containing a
circular. Then she turned her back
and began to close up the Office for the
noon hour.
When she was all alone Myra locked
the door and took Elias valentine out

handwriting was Enthusiastically that OF
Will Chandler. Myra knew it at cnce.
She had had several notes from VIII
before he fell in love with Ella Flagg.
The envelope was addressed to Ella
Flagg.
Myra's black eyes blazed jealousy as
she held the missive up to the light
and discerned through the thin paper
the dainty decoration of a lovely val
entine.
A little printed verse coulG be plain,
~ read: ...-
Amid these wilds I wander in despair,
I sigh for her, so faithless, yet so fair.
Ye streams, We woods, We breezes tell
The agonies of soul for her feel
A bit of >doggerel verse-yet it set
Myra's heart to beating rapidly.
Will Chandler had sent this valen-
tine to Ella Flagg-what wonder-work-
ing thing was this Love which could
bridge the long years of estrange-
ment?
Year after year Will Chandler had
sent similar message to Ella Flagg-
and Ella had never received it! Still,
Will had doggedly sent the valentines.
Nothing in between, but on the days
devoted to the kindly saint, Will sent
some message to his old sweetheart
and Ella never got it!
NIyra Watts might have explained,
but she didn't. .~-s
Today her eyes glowed fercely as
she hid the letters away in her bureau
at home.
'"They ought to be my Valentines"
she defended herself. $50 I'll keep
'em here!'
That night Myra closed the post Of
fee at eight o'clock and started for
home. Her way led past the little
house where Ella Flagg lived with an
Invalid mother When Myra passed
Mrs. Jacob Hills house that good lady
ran out with a paper hat bag in her
hand.

HOT WATER FOR
SICK HEADACHES

Headaches are caused by auto-in-
toxication-which means self-polson-
ing. Liver and bowel poisons called
toxins, sucked into the blood excite
the heart which pumps the blood SO
fast that it congests in the smaller
arteries and veins of the head, pro-
ducing violent, throbbing pain and
distress, called headache. You be-
come nervous, respondent, sick, few
erish and miserable, your meals sour
and almost nauseate you. Then you
resort to acetanilid, aspirin or the
romides, which temporarily relieve ut
do not rid the lood of these irritating
toxins.
A glass of hot water with tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in 1T
drank before breakfast will not only
wash these poisons from your system
and cure you Of headache, but will
cleanse, purify and freshen the ali
mentary canal.
Ask your pharmacist for quarter
pound of limestone phosphate. 1t is
harmless as sugar.

tongue is coated or you walks up with
bad taste, foul breath or have colds,
biliousness, constipation
or sour, acid stomach, egin the phos-
phated water cure to rid your sys-
tenn of toxins and poisons.

HAWAIIAN TO CELEBRATE
103RD BIRTHDAY SOON

HILO, Island of Hawaii, 7. H.
N. X. Kiaaina, full blooded Hawaiian
who is approaching his 103rd birth
day, is making his living, despite his
years, by -tilling the soil.
Kiaaina has eight acres of land at
Haahea where he raises sugar cane
and taro. This tall, patriarchal Ha-
waiian, who was born April 81, 1917,
still has keen eyesight, while his
hearing is as acute as ever. He
speaks no English, but is fluent
in his native tongue.
In the days Of the old monarchy,
Kiaaina was one of it's chief retainers
and during Queen Kaahumanu's life
he was one of her principal advisors.
From his office he gained the nick
name of Kiaalna, which means "gov-
ernor," which has stuck to him ever
since, displacing his own name of
Iwelani.
The aged farmer was married
twice, but had no children and both
his wives have been dead many years.

BE PRETTY! TURN
GRAY HAIR DARK
Try Grandm0ther's Old Favorite
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
come. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound, you will get large
bottle of this famous old reicpe i'm
proved by the addition of other in
gradients, at a small cost.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive. -

FOOLISH LAWS ARE EXPENSIVE

The Oregon legislature passed a
law forbidding the sale within the
state of gasoline testing below
certain gravity. Heavy penalties
were provided for the sale of gaso-
line that did not come up to this
test. AS a result the price of gaso-
line is Oregon was advanced one and
a half cents gallon. The gasoline
consumers got what the wise CD
legislators demanded they should
have, but they paid for it. Comment

100000 For What?

tally:
100000 For What?
Mr.. Kozer, of the secretary of
states office, produces gasoline tax
months during which the tax law has
been in effect, Oregon has consumed
30,000,000 gallons of gasoline The
consumption is at the rate of 49,
100000 gallons year.
b Here is basis for computing the
cost to Oregon consumers of the re-
cent advance in the price of gasoline.
That advance of one and one-half
cents gallon means total outlay
by users in years time of 100000.
The reason for this increase is as
cribed by the oil companies wholly
to the, gravity test imposed by the
Oregon law and it is promised that
repeal of the law will cause a CORES
ponding reduction.
Clearly it is important to know
just what advantage Oregon is re-
ceiving for its 100000 a year. If
that something is not greater mile
age or more power, but merely the
satisfaction of knowing that the
state is forcing the oil companies to
provide grade which they do not
wish to provide, then the same
money could be spent to better ad-
vantage. If the gasoline users have
100000 year that they do not need
it could be spent advantageously on
roads and give much greater salts
faction that mere show of indie
pendence.
This sum would provide interest
and sinking fund for. $1O,OOO,OOO

Tonight one of the best years in
the history Of the world becomes his
tory. The year 1919 has been
good year to most of the world. To
all who have been content to follow
legitimate callings. to engage in pro-
duction, and who have obeyed the
laws of God and man, the year has
been a good one, so much better than |
the five years that preceded it that
it seems almost like the millennium,
as compared with them. 1t is to be /
hoped that the year 1920 will be even
better. There are many things to
be accomplished before we get back
to normal, but we have made good
progress during the past year and
the year that will begin at midnight
tonight ought to be better in many
respects than the one that ends at
that hour But that is, to large ex
tent, "up to" the people. Let us all
resolve that we will do our part to
make it so and if we do, it will be
done.
