THE BLOW DEsCENDs

Miss Shirley Marsh, remarkably cool and sweet in a simple little frock of lowered muslin and a droopy country hat, dismissed her taxi at the corner of the park and proceeded Kensington Garden-ward in meditative fashion.
 It was a perfect summer afternoon and she was going to meet her lover.
 Jim Dalton was her lover--so she firmly told herself. Nothing ia the world must interfere with that estab- lished fact
 Lucille was an imposter. Why, of course she was! The whole astound- ing tale had been camouflaged, much in the nature of Lucille's own com plexion.
 Shirley! You look too beautiful for wordsr' Jim Dalton stood before her his eyes drinking in every detail of her sweet young face and slender figure. My dear, l was worried to death for fear you wouldn't comel"
 Why? Jim" Shrley's whole soul went out to him. You didn't think I'd break my word?" Reproach lay in her voice.

 They were close to the Peter Pan eta ;,,t !, Ho Let's sit under this shady tree for a little while before we join the crowd in the tea house." Shirley said. They found two green little chairs in a secluded corner and sank down into them.

 Cure Catarrh

gv the persistent use of external appics- tions, you may stop the catarrhal dls- charges from your nose and throat The trouble will. however, return in more ag- gravated form.
 It is said that the glands of the nose and throat act as ''an emergency plug for the human sewage system that when the kid neys skin and lungs are unable to prop erly dispose of some of the impurities that collect in those organs, such impurities are thrown out through the glands of the nase and throat. Head colds. due to exposure, must not, however, be confused with the chronic aggravated condition of the nose and throat traceable to impure blood.
 The best way to relieve this condition of chronic catarrh is by cleansing the blood of the impurities that have collected in the system There is no better treatment than Prescription C-2223. the great blood puri- fer This reliable alternative prescrip tion treatment corrects the impure state of the blood gives the tissues opportunity to exercise their normal functinos and results in the relief of the catarrhal condition 50 dangerous to good health.

Wealth Cannot Buy Health or Youth!

All the gold and jewels in ths world will not buy back health. It may patch up the broken down ma chine and make it last a little longer but as an eminent physician recently said: "In the end the old machine wears out.
 The body is the most wonderful machine in the world. It's perfec- tion is marvellous but like any deli cately adjusted machine it needs in- telligent care. Health is worth nlore than untold wealth.
 It has been demonstrated posi- tjvely-that the human body is merely collection of cells, and that health depends entirely upon tho red blood cells-that carry the oxygen, which is absolutely necessary to maintain human life.
 The cells of the body contain 17 different cell-salts--and the ab- sence of these salts causes disease symptoms-just as lack of water causes a plant to droop and die.
 These cell-salts attract and re- tain the oxygen, as 1t passes from the lungs into the blood, and re- pair, nourish, revitalize and main tain the health of the cells. i REOLO combines these 12 ceIl- salts % perfectly that they are easily assimilated by the blood IL has remarkable tonic and recon structive qualities and furnishes to the blood the invigorating. organic iron-revitalixing, life-giving oxy- gen and reconstructive cen-saltS that nature requires to maintain health, strength and energy.
 Don't neglect your health. Its easier to "keep well" than to sget weI1s-and much less expensive. IT you arc not feeling well-take tho syutematic REOLO Treatment that makes rich red blood vitalized with life-giving oxygen and the cell salts that Nature must have to keep the body strong and heatAy.
