 His voice shook.
 Tt was rotten thing to do. For give me, Barbara, and please be- licve that I'll do anything in my power to make it up to you again. D
 At that she caught her breath and seemed to be nerying herself 10 speak,
 If that's a bluff I'll call it. Prove what you've said by marrying me at the next port"

 She came close to him.so close that the top of her head was touch- ing his chin.

 Her hazel eyes met his unflnch- mgIy.

 She shook her head and he per sisted.

GOOD ADVICE
ON AVOIDING INFLU.
ENzA GIVEN BY
HEALTH OFFICIALS

Plenty of sleep, wholesome food,
fresh air, regular exercise-these
are strongly recommended by health
officials in the many sections of the
country where influenza is preva-
lent. 1t is most important now that
every precautiOn be taken to pre-
vent the spread of the disease.
If possible keep away from
crowded places, and especially from
persons who are sneezing, shifting
and coughing. Use plenty of water,
inside and out. Wash regularly be-
fore eating. Keep your hands away
from your face at all times. If you
have cold take the best care Of it
and consult your doctor.
Many people have made it "a prac-
tice to use Vapex regularly, a drop
on folded handkerchief every
morning. This is of great assis-
tance in avoiding colds and kindred
ailments. Breathe the Vapex vapOr
frequently during the day, espe-
cially while mingling with crowds.
The odor is pleasant and refresh
ing. The strength Of one applica-
tion lasts for an entire day, even
increases for several hours. Buy .
bottle of Vapex from your druggist,
in the little square bottle and the
package with the green triangle.
