concluded shut-mouthly.
"Oh no, please go on. Pleased"
She heaved another sigh and con-
tinaed: ''Well, I've been married.
I have one child" Again her brain
twirled. A panorama of her past
life flared before her,-all of which
she dared not tell. Some of her life
only one man must know
and he was her husband. She grip
ped her nerves and swallowed then
added: "When Junior was a year
old, I had a terrible tragedy to
change my whole life.
Again she paused to gather a re-
covering breath. Her eyes fell to
the floor. Her face muscles tight
ened as she hung her head. Her
body stiffened as the recurrence of
the tragedy raced through her
brain.

sery and grief" he added.

but not my husband"
"Why, didn't you love your hus-

She sat motionless and in sill

question her further.

CHAPTER II

S44<AA i ASAS -
Carl Smith IS trying to make the
acquaintance of a comedy belle
whom he by chance began to talk
with as the train on which he was
riding pulled out of the railroad
station at Roanoke Va. He has in
formed her that he is a writer.
This gained her interest.
NOW GO ON WITH THE
STORY
"Oh, do you writer" she asked.
"Well have a small booklet of
poetry published. 1t isn't very
much; but some day, I might do
something worth while,-if ! ever
get the inspiration from the right
source"
"What would you consider the
source?" she asked.
"Oh, that's a long story, and
I'm afraid you'd get tired of listen
ing to it from way up where I'm
standing" .-.
His lips parted slowly, followed
by an appealing smile. She blushed
lightly with understanding. Then
you may sit down.
perhaps I shall if you are sure
an old bard won't be too boresome."
She smiled. He sat down and
crossed his hands and leaned back
to begin his narrative. She COM
forted herself to listen.
swell, you see, I was once in
love and got disappointed"
- Her expression suddenly showed
signs of profound interest.
81 had the inspiration THEN to
WRITE" he continued, "and to make
a real success out of it; but since
loosing her, well I haven't had
much incentive to attempt anything
worth while"
He paused.
She sat in a study, then re-
marked:
"Your affair must have been in
teresting. Did she get married? He
shook his head slowly and starred
blankly at the seat before them.
"Then what happened to cause
you to lose herr"
"Well :. She didn't get married
at first she didn't; but you see
her mother thought wasn't good
enough for her. She wanted her to
marry a medical student in oul
town, and every time they were
together I became the subject OF
a heated discussion. That's wher
love and hate in the frames Of
mother and daughter FLASHED
Those battles lasted between then
until I finished college. Then I LEFT
home and went to work on the LAKE
steamers in Chicago, hoping t.
make enough money to go in bust
ness the next year and marry her
Well when did come home

and we couldn't get married. He
mother became so tyrranical tina
Marie ran off and married an or
chestra leader. Since then, haven
cared much for any other woman
and I'm trying to forget her." Wills
shifted in her seat and tried to hid
her compassion.

L. c.: I just wonder why my
husband acts so queer at times.
Why did he go up another street to
work the other day? I have read
your wonderful answers in this col
umn for years.
Ans: You are entirely too sus-
piciOus of your husband. He is in
nOcent of being untrue to you, so
calm your fears. He did not walk
up the street to see another woman
as you seem to think.
WONDERING: l seem to be
quite popular among the members
of my set. I am invited to nearly
all the big affairs and I know lots
of fellows and girls, but what's
worrying me is that I don't seem to
have boy friend. Do you vision
that !. will meet some nice boy
soon?
Ans: Betcha boots, I do. Pretty
girls needn't worry about boy
friends. My crystal reveals a rO-
nance within the next few months.
Do not be too willing to go steady.
Pick your friends with care and try
to associate with boys you think
are better than yourself.
E. B.: ! have a friend and she
has been put away in an institu-
ton. Will she be able to get re-
leased from this institution and
how can she?
Ans: She will be released soon
er than she expects through the eff
forts of a lawyer. If she has not
already got a lawyer working on
her case then advise her to get
one right away. 1t will be the
quickest way out.
E. NJ: always felt that 1 was
musically inclined. Please tell me
what instrument will have the
ocA c,rnooco It'll.
Ans: The trumpet. It's not too
late to get started. Practice long
and hard and you will be a skilled
musician making your hobby pay
you big dividends in a few years.
K. B.: The girl in my boy
friends class seems to stay in my
boy friends face constantly. / want
to know should / overlook this or
will there ever be time that she
will let him alone?
Ans: This girl has made up her
mind to win this boy away from
you and she is determined to do it.
Don't let it get your goat. Why not
go after this other boy you secretly
admire. You would be getting the
best of the bargain.

l. E. F.: would like to know if
conditions will ever be any better
for me?
Ans: AstrOlOgy indicates that in
the late fall of 1889 a change for
the better will take place in your
life and YOU WILL GO BACK TO
HOUSEKEEPING.

Welcome Hall Seniors, IL
Halle @. Brown. 6

The Seniors of Welcome Hall re-
gained some of their lost favor in
the Settlement House D-Ball
League by winning IRONS Halle @.
Brown to the tune of II to 6 We'd
nesday afternoon at the Welcome
Hall Playground. Led by S. Scrog-
gins who again demonstrated with
out doubt, that he is the standout
hurler in the league, the Hall boys
were out in the lead by safe mar
gin in the early periods of the
game and the Halle @. Brown boys
although making a last closing
drive in the closing minutes of the
game, were unable to come close
to the leaders who then pulled
away removing all doubts as to the
outcome.
Led by Scroggins with 16 strike
outs and a home-rm, the game fea-
tured rally of home-runs by Col
Inns, Gardner and Scroggins. Other
standouts for Welcome Hall were
H. Kemp, Lattimer and Russell.
For Halle @. Brown Buford, Ford
and Lee.
Intermediates, II
Jewish Center, IL
The intermediate DIAL team of
Welcome Hall was able to repeat
the feat of the Seniors by whip
ping the intermediate team for the
Jewish Educational Center at the
Welcome Hall Playground Thurs
day afternoon, May IS. For Wei
come Hall there were hOme-runs
by Vasser, Stone and Withers.
Standouts for Jewish Center were
Halper, Leelnan and Mastbaum.
This victory over the Center team
gives the local boys a standing of
one won and one lost in the Settle
ment House D-Ball League.
Phyllis Wheatley, 8
Welcome Hall, 4
Phyllis Wheatley of Minneapolis
evened the score with the Welcome
Hall boys of st. Paul by downing
them 8 to A at Minneapolis. The
Wheatley team proved the superior
of the two and was able to collect
runs to the losers a. A home
run by H. Kemp and 16 strikeouts
by Scroggins was not enough and
the Hall lads had to be contented
with evening up the series. Stand
outs for P. w. were Breedlove,
Brown and Miller; for Welcome
Hall, Hay. Kemp, Scroggins and

ed, the lymph nodes will subsids
automatically.
All of these lymph node enlarge
ments are not so simple. In young
children they may enlarge without
any obvious primary focus OF infec-
ton. This may be a form Of tuber-
culosis called scrofula. It was for
merly much more common in this
country than it now is, because, like
all forms of tuberculosis that may
come from infected milk and herds,
it has been largely eliminated with
the splendid preventive work done
by our American veterinarians. In
England it is as common as it ever
was, because in England the veter-
inarians compromised and temper
lied with the tuberculosis in cows,
and did not eliminate it fully.
The treatment of the chronic
scrofulous type Of lymph node in
flammation is hygiene, sunshine,
good food, plenty of Vitamins A and
D. When the nodes are ripe, they
should be removed by surgical op-

neck Jumps in a class of medical
students, and when we had reached
