Against the better counsel Of her

Rather not! But for reasons

"Oh, yes; I'm having Fanny Lontainc

Guest and Jane Sedley. What a
pity. Though nothing can prevent
you coming, too, if you like"
A dark suspicion knitted BclIamy's
eyebrows. "Some actress? Sounds

laughed. Nothing of the sort. Fan

it's something to do with the will

Bclamy flushed sullenly, II was

piness to Lucinda bruce, New York
society matron, in the fifth year of
her married life She and her hus-
band, Bethany, continued to drift
apart and more openly he INDUCED
his appetite for promiscuous Irritation
and heavy drinking. Then Richard
Daubney, Lucindas old sweetheart,
returned just as Bellamy was plung-
ing into his latest affair, this time
with Mrs. Amelia Severn. An open
break between Lucinda and Bethany
had been averted by the apparent sin
cerity Ct his penitence. In his heart
he felt shame and sel-reproach.

co ON WITH THE STORY

Why must he be such a fool as
ever to let himself be hattered into
forgetting sheer perfection was to
be found nowhere if not within the
walls of his own home?
Bending to kiss his wife, he put
that thought behind him. He
couldn't afford to dwell upon it. AL
ready he was too far committed IN
this new affair to withdraw with
out losing face. But he would find
some way soon to make an end of
it (thank God! they all had an end
some time) and this would be the
last-'and after this, never again"
He really meant it this time, he
vowed he did .

ask that, though, only have to look

"Oh, bored to tears, assure you.

SALE OF CHRISTMAS
SEAL STAMPS
NOW ON

If all who receive the Christmas
seal stamps by mail respond as re
Ouested, the money desired for gen
eral health purposes will be raised
with no burden to ANYBODY. 1t is
a humanitarian movement and those
familiar with it are the most ready
to support it.
Under the plan. - per cent of the
money raised by the salea will be
kept in the valley and used to carry
on a health program that has been
worked out by the local committee,
every member of which is familiar
with the needs of the valley in this
respect.
The work is more preventative
than corrective and will be carried
on largely through contact with the
children in the public schools of the
county. Through a survey conducted
bv experts year or SO ago, it was
found that many of the children here
here need this preventive treatment
to fortifv them against Illness in
later years. The rural women. mem
bers Of the home department of the
farm bureau, are anxious to put on a
nutrition campaign and if the sale
of stamps are successful, nurse for
the use of the districts will be possi-
Bile, so that such a campaign may be
carried on.
The only fear is that some who
have received the stamps by mail,
will put them aside and neglect to
pay for them.
That this may not hinder the
cause, all are urged to give the mat
Ter their immediate attention. phe
stamps will be used ON thousands
of Christmas packages.
