regularly - and you will soon
have your appetite back.

So much depends on your appetite
your strength and vitality-your
position-our happiness. 9f
Remember, how it used to be when
you could hardly wait for mealtime?
And then, sit down., and eat several
helpings of everything enjoy every
n1orsel and get up from the table
feeling satisfied with the world,
happy with everybody and ready for
anything.
But what difference in living
when even the sight and smell of
food sickens you! Never hungry
no matter how tempting the food is
nothing tasting right. And then,
after nibbling at a few bites, feeling
worse than ever.

Oh, life is hardly worth living this
way. And yet, all in the world the
matter with you is that you are
starving for rich, red blood. 1T is
acknowledged everywhere that S.S.S.
helps nature build these healthy red
blood cells by the millions!
All you need to do to get back that
wonderful appetite is to build rich,
red blood cells with S.S.S. It's simple,
lust try it, like thousands are doing
every day. See for yourself what
SS.S. will do.
S.S.S. means blood with a punch
--brimful of new life and energy.
Get your S.S.S at any good druggist.
The larger size is more economical.

"Of course you wouldn't. 1t didn't
mean anything to you-but it meant
everything to me. Why, Vee-Vee.
you danced with me! I held you
in my arms, could have touched your
glorious hair. 1t was longer then, a
mop of copper-red curly that lay
like autumn leaves against your
adorable white forehead.
Don't you remember? told you
then that I would never forget, and
you laughed at me, went on to your

snapshot that they printed in the
papers.

many who wanted you-rich, a
beauty" He was fumbling in his
breast pocket, drew out flat hand
fooled brown leather pocketbook.
@See? I clipped it from the Sunday
paper, have carried it ever since"
Vee-Vee took the limp clipping
her eyes searching first for a bit of
type which would give her a clue to
the girls identity. But there was
no caption to the picture; Schuyler
Smythe had not needed to be re-
minded of who she was.
1t was picture of laughing girl,
with wird-tossed short curls, ten
mis- racket in her right hand, a skirt
that looked funny now because 1t
was so long, whipping about ner
beautifully shaped ankles.
The girl in the picture undoubted-
ly resembled Vee-Vee, might have
been Vee-Vee of five years before. If
that Vee-Vee had had long curly
blob and had not worn disfiguring
glasses.
Schuyler Smythe took the picture
from her lax hands and pressed 1t
against his lips. A sharp stab OF
jealousy shot through her heart.
He loved that mysterious other
girl whom he had met five years
ago. It was not Vee-Vee Cameron
at all that he loved. She was an
impostor, an unwilling impostor
warming her hands at fire that
had been lighted five years before
and tended by a romantic idealist.
AS Schuyler Smythe was FUN
bling with his pocketbook to re-
store the snapshot to its proper
place a letter dropped out, fell to
the floor of the car. Vee-Vee's eyes
following its course mechanically,
widened with bewildered surprise
as they took in the address.

Events become more complf-
Gated than ever. How long before
Vee-Vee will realize she is playing
a dangerous game?

MI cold and nervousness as she
stripped off her wet bathing
suit. A quick shower of lukewarn
water made her feel quieter, more
able to think connectedly. But oh,
she didn't want to think!
She wanted only to feel, to allow
those delicious tremors Of delight to
shuGder along her nerves. What
had he said? She pretended not to
remember, to search her mind, for
the sake of the sharp Joy OF bring
ing his voice back to her: "Vee-Vee!
That's adorable! But it would have
to be to suit you"
"Was too eager? Too forward?"
she questioned herself anxiously,
as she settled herself before her
mirror.
AS she dressed quickly, a little
dismayed at the time she had lost
In dreaming, she shivered a little
with pity.
That poor girl, with her little,
plittering black eyes, like polished
shoe buttons, her broad, thick mouth
suddenly tight with pain. She loved

pain of being passed by,( OF low

"But I'm not going to let maud
fin pity for rich girl cheat me out
of nv birthright," she told herself
fiercely, as she slipped the dress she
had chosen over her sleek, bur-
nished head. =,
She had chosen the dress with all
the cunningness of a woman who
plans to fight without quarter. In
it she knew she looked utterly FEM
