1t has been said thatnot one woman in
a thousand passes this perfectly natural
change without experiencing a train of
very annoying and sometimes painful
symptoms. Those dreadful hot flashes,
sinking spells, spots before the eyes,
dizzy spells, nervousness, are only a few
of the symptoms. Every woman at this
age should profit by Mrs. Block s expert
ence and try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound.
If you have the slightest doubt that
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound will help you, write to Lydia E.
Pinkham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass,
about your health. Your letter will be
opened, read and answered by a woman,
and held in strict confidence.

a Man is just as Young and Strong
as his Blood

as his Blood
No man can fight the battles of
life and hold his own if his blood
is not pure, for rich red blood is
what strength is based upon. When
you see strong, vigorous man, who
never knows when he is licked, you
may wager that such man has
coursing through his veins rich, red
blood. Many people have thin, pale
blood. They are weak, tire easily,
become discouraged quickly, and
sometimes feel like giving up the
struggle. Such folks need Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
made without alcohol, and sold by
druggists in liquid or tablet form.

"AppIe.Pie Order"

Few persons take time to trace ex'
pressions they use every day. When
a thing is in "apple-pie order" for
example, you mean, of course, that 1t
is clean and neat and generally every
thing that it should be. The express
sion originated under somewhat differ
ent circumstances, observes the New
York Sun.
"Apple-pie order" is an old New
England phrase, and is we'll grounded
in the blue laws of several centuries
ago. Formerly the New England
housewife did little work on Sunday
and among the many things she-didnt
do was baking. Everything of that
nature was finished Saturday night.
When the baking was done all the
pies and cakes were ranged in row
on the kitchen shelf. With the flour
still on her hands and apron, the good
housewife would come out with q
smile on her face ready fo- the Sab
bath. Everything was in 'apple-pie
order"

CHAPTER CxLvII.


Once I had made up my mind to tell
Terry nothing about the tragedy that
was hanging over Betty my nervousness
ceased. My decision was made-and
with it the further one that all thought
Of the ugly outcome of the operation on
Betty's arm must be. dismissed from my
thoughts for the time being. That much
1 owed to Betty. Time enough later
to grisve over the doctors verdict; time
enough later to try to help Betty recon-
Gle herself to a useless right hand. This
was the brides day, and 1 must bring
cheer and bright thoughts to 1t.
1t was after when 1 came back from
my walk through the pine woods
breakfasted with the matron of Grey
friars Hail. who seemed in a. regular
feminine futter over the romantic mar
riage that was to take place in the
pavilion, and presently Miss Moss came
to tell me that 1 might see Betty.
The bride herself wasn't a bit f1uttery.
She had the quiet JOY and serenity of one
who makes port after a stormy voyage.
Betty's wedding was like no other I
have ever heard about or seen. But 1t
was lovely and sacred and sweet, in spite
of the fact that it took place in a little
hospital room. The room was a bower
a garden.
The guests were Virginia and Tony
as I seem somehow to be calling An
thony Norreys these days-Miss Moss,
DR.. Lucas and the matron and the head
nurse of Greyfriars Hall. Jim gave the
bride away, and las matron of honor
bore a wonderful cluster Of American
Beauties on one arm, while l sat on the
edge of the bed and supported Betty with
the other. Terry knelt reyerently on
cushions at the side of the bed.
The minister's voice sounded Ike a
muted golden bugle. AS he finished
speaking the late afternoon sun came In
through the window to kiss the bride.
| Then Terry leaned forward and drew
Betty away from me and held her gently
and proudly to bis heart, and l knew
that had my reward for keeping silence
and letting him have his brief perfection

couldn't meet them. I dared not trust
him to be kind-only stern.
After a few minutes the doctor ordered
us all from the room.
Jim and Anne are staying down-to

for four weeks. It seemed rather anus
ing to us to be figuring how long 1t
would be before letters which we malice
there would reach the United States.
Although unloading our cargo was not
to begin until midnight the stevedores
were on hand hours before and passed
away the time IN singing. playing prae-
teal jokes and a child like inspection OF
the ship. Curio sellers were on hand in
great numbers too.
One Of the ships officers related to me
an amusing story OF how the F1jians who
work On the wharf came to be unioniEed.
During the war the army claimed so
many OF the young fellows who other
wise would have been stewards on ships
that F1jians were employed to wash
dishes and in other mental capacities.
Quickly they discovered the white boys
had the best OF IL because they were
unionized. The first ship that called at
Suya after these Fijtan dishwashers got
home received a surprise. The Fitians
had unionized their fellow dockworkers
and demanded higher rate Of pay. In

should remain king for the rest Of his
