"God. how I've prayed for this min

suddenly.
81 have, too" said Tonnibel in
shy. sweet voice. Il thought YOU'D
forgotten aS2uU me-"
"Whv, l couldn't do my work half
way well, I've thought about you so
much" cried the boy, "and I've been
planning a lot for you and me. You
see. DIR. John is a sort of a guardian
to me, and next year I'll be twenty

"Oh,'' said Tonnibel in a queer little
voice
YES. / believe in early marriages"
Philip went on emphatically. Wasn't
it queer thing that all the while
I was haunting the shore you were in
the house, my house almost? You
see, l live just next door to you"
"Oh :" Tony said again. Something
had hurt her dreadfully. Something he
had said He might be married next
year and, of course, 1t would be TO
Katherine.
"And time and again l heard how
much some little girl was helping Dr.
Paul" he went on. "But somehow
never heard your name and hadn't
the last idea" He stopped. Then
he slipped his arm about her 81
didn't know she was my little girl"
he finished.
Tony closed her eyes. All the I'M
happiness of the past weeks left her
that moment like vanished burden.
He had said she was his little girl.
How very lovely the world was!
Lean against me, dear" murmured
Philip. And this time-Oh, Tony,
don't leave me today without telling
me you love me lot"
Tony glimpsed him with one little
upward glance. Her eyes were star
bright.
81 love you more'n the whole world
she trembled. "Moren l know how
to tell"
1t isn't any ones affair just how
many times Philip made Tony tell him
she'd marry him, nor is it any ones
affair how many times he kissed her,
but 1t is our business to listen to
Philips conclusion.
I'm going to tell Cousin John and
Cousin Paul tonight that we're going
to be married" he said, and Tonnibel
had no inclination TO forbid him.
With dark thoughts, Katherine was
watching for them to come back again.
She saw the happy shining face of
the girl. saw Philip lift the little figure
from the car and draw her up the
steps. Her teeth came together in
sharp misery as she turned from the
window and went upstairs.

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex.
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
OF sight and are soon forgotten! The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need OF it..
A prominent druggist says take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root. a
preparation l have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend. for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
SALE
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney
liver and bladder ailments corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle Of
SwampRoot by Parcels Post. Address
DIR. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, n. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles
for sale at all drug stores-Adv.

said. smiling But I'm glad you went
out. He's a nice fellow, Philip. My
brother and have often wished our
young cousin would pattern after him,

Then after dinner as usual Tonnibel,
with Gussie Piglet In her arms, read
from the Bible. The clock struck ten
when she arose softly and began TO
prepare for the night. BY the even
breathing of the man on the bed she
knew he was asleep, and as quiet as
a mouse she crept about softly so as
not to arouse him. The suite directly
back of Paul Pendlehaven's had been
given TO her She went into her bed

over her night robe she drew a light

There wasn't any wind, not even a
breeze. Her heart jumped into her
throat as she crep' away from the
window and back inSo Pendlehaven's
room. The little night lamp glimmered
dimly above the small table with its
load of medicine glasses. She stood
in the shadow and peered through the
screen. There among the dripping
branches was the quiet figure of a
man.
Her mind went Immediately to her
father but she put the thought of him

much more slender than Uriah Devons
DR.. Pendlehaven still slept, his face
turned toward the wall. and Tonnibel
squatted down at the foot of the bed
keeping the dark figure in the tree in
the line of her vision. She dared not
leave the room, nor dared she call
out. How often DIR, John had told
her that his brother must be kept free
from shocks Of every kind. For an

The girl sat up and stared at him.

with a sneer. cousin John says Paul
will be able to go out of the house very
soon, that by next week he can go
anywhere he likes"
Reginald got up lazily. He said
something under his breath that made
his sister struggle to her feet. She
stood a moment and gazed with star
tied eyes at the door that had closed

Now, what'd he mean by that -

several minutes, then little scraping
