The wanting her and the
longing for her had never

vague excuses that shamed him
now. He had wanted to ask her
to marry him then, his lack Of
money would not have stopped
him. But 1t was because he did
not want to hurt Amy. that he
hesitated.
AS the train sped along, he
hoped fervently that Amy was
safely married now and that Do

woman like Dolores at his. side
to help him, it never would have
taken fifteen years. How foolish
he had been! Dolores, she had
everything that Amy lacked.
At the hotel he did not see one
familiar face. The man who
shared his supper table started a
conversation and gradually Barry
led the talk to people Of the
town. do you happen to know
Dolores Galloway or Amy Rem?
Are either Of them married?" He
tried to say it very casually.
The man considered a moment.

WHY A REINDEER is SO VALUABLE

WYE were up in Lapland,
w that frigid country Of the
w north, and you never saw
such sleighing in your life. Every
day we were out driving behind a
fine team of reindeer-some-
times eight drawing the sled, just
like Santa Claus. In fact, Bobby
once said:
Foxy Grandpa, if you had
whiskers people would think you
were Santa Claus himself, ap-
pearing in person"
laughed and decided that at
the next fancy dress party to
which l was invited would wear
a red suit and some whiskers and
impersonate the dear old man.
On the road we passed team
after team OF reindeer. We never
once saw a horse or a donkey.
Finally Bobby said:
Everyone up here seems to be
rich, Foxy Grandpa"
"Why. Bobby?" I asked. what
makes you think so?"
Because" responded the boy
thoughtfully, everyone drives.
Everybody has reindeer"
"A man is not necessarily rich
because he has reindeer, my boy"
1 explained.
How is that?" queried Bobby.
Because everyone up here has
reindeer" explained. But it
is how many reindeer a man has
which determines how rich or
how poor he is"
Please explain it to me, Foxy
Grandpa" Bobby urged.
WELL" said 1, Its this way.
Here in Lapland there isn't such
thing as a millionaire. There
are only reindeeraires."
"Reindeeraires" shouted Bobby,
laughing.
Yes, SIR" said I, reindeer.
aires. Because up here in this
part Of the world men are de-
pendent upon reindeer for their
very life. And the more rein
deer man has the easier 1t is
for him to live. and for that
reason he is considered a rich
man."
why can't they live without
reindeers?" asked Bobby.
IN tell YOU" 1 answered. 'In
the first place. a reindeer carries
men wherever they want to so.
he not only carries them but he
carries their burdens"
That's right" agreed Bobby.

And" l continued, 1.-The heavy
fur skin Of the fine animal makes
their clothes"
II hadn't thought Of that"
unused Bobby.
But more important STILL"
explained, "the people up here
live on the meat Of reindeer. ana
they say it is very good, too"
mo wonder they are valuable
then" said Bobby thoughtfully.
YES" said I, reindeer are
the most important things in
life up here. Why, do you know
that when baby is born the
father will set aside a pair of
reindeer as the property of the
baby, and then keep all of their
children and grandchildren and
tend them until the child grows
up. Then when they are grown
make them. present Of the
herd. to start them off in life."
"You don't mean it, Foxy
Grandpa" exclaimed Bobby.
Indeed I do" said I. '"rhat
is just like putting money in the
bank and waiting for it to draw
interest until they grow up"
How many reindeer does a
reindeeraire own usually?" asked
Bobby.
'"oh, a thousand or so. Several
hundred are not a fortune. And
a man who owns only about fifty
is a poor man."
Then Santa Claus isn't a rich
man at ALL" said Bobby.
mo-" I answered but a very
good one"

Among the notable professional
men Of this country who achieved
great success along strictly legitimate
lines was DR.. R. v. Pierce. Devot-
ing his attention to the speciality of
women's diseases, he became a recog-
nized authority in that line.
Over fifty years ago this noted
physician gave to the world a Pre-
scription which has never been
equaled for the weaknesses of wo-
men. Dr.. Pierce Of Buffalo, N. Y,
long since found out what is natn-
rally best for women's diseases. He
learned it all through treating thou
ands Of cases. The result Of his
studies was medicine called Doctor
Pierce's Favoritc Prescription. This
medicine is made of vegetable
growths that nature surely intended
for backache, headache, weakening
pains, and for the many disorders
common to women in all ages of life.
Women who take this standard rem
edy know that in DR.. Pierce's Favor
lite Prescription they are getting a
safe woman's tonic so good that
druggists everywhere sell it in both
tablet and fluid form.
