CHAPTER XIV
There was no eloquence in his
speech; the words came with
nervous jerks as he was a-a:e
that he was lacking in the power
of" any spoke romance that
wonld warm her heart. MerHy,
in his stumbling fashion ha wa3
trying to set before her the one
fact that obsessed him.
Nor was he disappointed that
she did not love him. An easy vic
tory had been.no part of his ex
pectations, rier lips, warm ana
quivering upon his, had nut seem,
ed like the lips of other girls and
he .was not disappointed into
thinking that a kiss, howe-ver
ecstatic, bridged the gulf between
them; - but his mind held reso
lutely to the conviction that be
hind her ethereal beauty and
poised culture she was funda
mentally human . ana that, in
time, he might become worihy in
her eyes. This, he realized, was
sheer stuhorness of purpose- on
his part; but without it, all life
would be a barren vacuum.
"You seem so terribly sincere
that you. make me ashamed of
myself," she told him. "Of course
the whole thing is an impossibil
ity and always will be that's
why I feel so badly."
"It might be impossible if.what
I feel wasn't permanent," he re.
eponded. "but it Is the way I
feel about you is ! Indestructible
and I don't believe-1 would have
a feeling like that if it meant
nothing."
His thoughts were carrying'
them Into a region so purely spec
ulative that Marian felt a neces
sity of returniug to the purely
practical. j
"You've got to get this out of
your head or it will do you
harm," she said. " Yon'll be bet
ter off if you forget all about it."
"It won't do any harm and I
can't forget about; It," he told
her, firmly. "If you don't want
to hear any more about it I'll
keep still."
"I think that might be better."
she said, slowly. "Still we could
be friends perhaps "
"And how!" he declared," with
a flashing Feturn of his New
York vernacular.
"But not." she .added, "if it is
going to put both of us under a
strain. I'll always feel guilty when
I look at you and I'll know that,
you are carrying around a sort of
love-delusion in your mind. I'm
afraid, Eddie Regan, that we've
got ourselves into hot water."
"I like it," he said. "And
look tell me honestly it does
n't make you exactly miserable,
does it, to know that Jhere's a
gii like me worshipping you?"
For the first time she spoke to
him sharply. : j
"I'm through talking about
it," she declared. "I want you
to getjthe idea out of your head
that because I became ridiculous
anything exists between us or
can exist between ns. I'm not
going to wery my head with it
all, and for your own good, I ad
vise you to quit thinking about
me at fall."
Her tone was almost vindica
tive and the sudden sharpness of
know your folks have been half
scared to death, thinking you
might've fallen oft your : horse
and got killed? Me and half
dozen others have been looking
all over for you for a couple of
hours. ; .
Marian smiled at him. "I am
sorry." she said, meekly. "I
should have phoned home! right
away. The tall I got shook me
np a bit and it happened! right
outside Mr. Regan's place so I
came np here but I don't be

other. This is Tom Freemen, Mr.
Regan."

Idly. "That's O. K. with me," he
said, forcing a crispnesg intoiis
voice.
"I'm not crazy about forcing
myself on anybody where I am
not wanted. You're right I've
been a fool to go on like this
while you were sitting there
knocked out from your fall. You
ought to be home and in bed
right now. I. am going to hitch
up the horse to the "buggy if you
will let me unless you want me
to telephone your father now."
"No." she said, -quietly, "I'll
ride home with you."
There was the sound of an au
tomobile in the yard. They look
ed at each other and both were
slightly and uncomfortably star
tled. So completely had Eddie and
Marian been engrossed with the
love-issue that the sound of an
automobile with its engine roar
ing outside the door parred them
both with surprise. Eddie was
on his feet Instantly and the girl
sat upright in her chair.
"Don't you move," he said to
her, with swift concern for her
bruised condition. A voice from
outside called out a halloa. Eddie
sat a lighted candle in the living
room and stepped on the porch.
A head was thrust out of the car
and a full, noisy voice demanded:
"Say? I'm out looking for
Miss Thorndike. Her horse went
home with an empty saddle this
evening and everybody's out
looking for her. Did you see her
pass your place this afternoon?"
"She is here," Eddie said.
The voice boomed with surprise
"The Hell!" A bulky body climb
ed out of the automobile. "Is she
hurt?"
"Not much. Come on inside."
The man came up to the porch,
a tall robust figure, a young man
with a full face and eyes that pro-
sligbtly In a manner to
remind Eddie of a bullfrog. In
stantly, and for no explainable
reason the atmosphere between
them became charged with a
vague antagonism.
"She's in the front room." Ed
die said.
The feet that tramped across
the hall and into the room made
harsh sounds on the floor. Ed,
die's eyes looked at the man's
back and noted that his legs
were thick in the calves. f
"Hello, Tom," Marian said.
CLEVELAND, Jnly 29. (lAP)
A Bibulous cow. stumbling in
uncertain surprise from the hrink
of a brook in Broadview Heights,
brought Mayor Lloyd Harris i aud
a raiding party to a nearby barn
Friday night, causing discovery
of two stills and 50 gallons of
alleged whiskey. The owner had
fled, but his fires were still burn
ing. Harris 6aid a dariyman told
him he saw his cow staggering
after taking a drink and investi
gated. To his amazement the
cow's breath smelled of alcohol.
He traced the odor to water and
thence up stream to the barn. His
report to Harris caused the raid.

The urge to expectorate frequently is proof

At a matter of fact, one side or the other of

have, first of one side and then the other, more

This is due to thickening of the mucous mem

HOT WEATHER ADVICE FOR
MOTHERS OF B ARIES
HOT weather is usually bad
for the baby. By this I mean
excessively hot weather and Its
effect upon babies who do not
receive the best of care.
It is necessary to take care f
babies by the clock. Regular
habits mnst be formed and
applied.
The first Important habit Is to
have regularity in the feeding
time. No food must! be- taken
between the regular feedings.
The baby must be taken Into
the open air at a regular time
every day. Unless the weather
is extremely bad, this rule must
not be overlooked. i
The baby must have a regular
time for sleep and rest. The
young baby will sleep twenty or
even twenty-two hours out of the
twenty-four. - The Infant should
be encouraged to- have this
amount of sleep.
The mother must give attention
to the bowel movements t bar
child. The feedings most be so
regulated that there is regularity
