THIRD INSTALMENT

Carefully she fixed herself before
the mirror. Then quickly picking
up her gloves and bag, she hurried
down the passage to the elevator.
Maybe Stanley would still be in the
hall. Maybe his snappy sport road
ster would be at the curb.
But as she stepped from the ele-
vator, Rod O'Rorke came swiftly
to her side.
Say, honey, I guess I was a fool
leaving you like that yesterday"
he said. Tell me you still love
me, Maris darling," he added i'm
pulsively as he drew her away from
the throngs that were sweeping a.
long the halls.
Maris' eyebrows drew swiftly
together. Why mad Rod appeared
Just when there was a chance that
she might see Stanley? And yet
how her heart had leaped when she
caught sight of him, looking so
eagerly for her! She knew in spite
of any vagrant thought about
Stanley that she still loved Rod.
Well, there was no use making a
scene, so quickly banishing her
frown, she smiled and said. "Oh,
Rod, what a scare you gave me!
l thought something terrible had
happened when l saw you standing
there"
"Well, mavourneen, I've been
having a terrible time thinking
maybe I'd lost you.
"You couldn't do that so easily
answered Maris, while she glanced
swiftly about the wide halls Of the
office building. But Stanley Fay,
son was nowhere to be seen.
"Oh, Maris, darling, you We mad'
me so happy!" Rods blue eye
glowed as they rested On the CIR
at his side.
xDon't look at me like that" sh'
whispered. people will think yoe
crazy" But even though she tool
a step away from his side, her hear
was flurtering because she realized
that Rod was so handsome. NJ
wonder the girls hurrying pas'
turned to look at him, envy in thell
eyes.
vI don't care if they do, sweet
heart, I'm SO happy. Let's 60
somewhere and have dinner and
then take in a show or something.
he begged, falling into step with
her when they joined the multitude
hurrying from the building.
"Oh, but, Rod, Pm afraid
can't" Maris explained, suddenly
remembering that she was going te
discipline the man she loved. II
would never do, she knew, to give
in the moment he started to make
up.
."You can't shake me as easily as
that" declared Rod, his blue eyes
smiling into hers as he laid his hand
lightly on her arm. Then, STOPPING
down, he whispered softly in her
ear, "You really don't want to, do
you, sweetheart"
"Oh, Rod, you're impossible!'
And Maris raised her dark eyes to

cried triumphantly, as he slipped
his firm hand across the table and
imprisoned her fingers.
"And I haven't said, Yes" she
answered, as she withdrew her hand
from his clasp. Lets eat now"

Bad Feeling
Due to Constipation

Get rid of constipation by taking
Black-Draught as soon as you notice
that bowel activity has slowed up or
you begin to feel sluggish. Thou
sands prefer Black-Draught for the
refreshing relief it has brought them.
Mrs. Ray Mullins, Of Late, Ark,
writes: my husband and I both take
Thedford's Black raught and find
It splendid for constipation, bilious
ness, and the d~isagreeable, aching,
tired feeling that comes from this
condition" With reference to Syrup
OF Black raught, which this mother
gives her children, she says: '@They
like the taste and it gave such good
results"
