IRVING KING • to Mvciur; ARGARET HOWARDS ease M should to a warning to all girls of marriageable age. After, as every, body said, “flinging herself at the bead" of Howard Harrop, Howard bad jilted her. Had Margaret been in love with a falthlem wooer? Well, no—as a matter of fact she bad not She had, however, been rather in love with his motor car. bin yacht and bls coun try house, and she felt the blow keenly. There had never been any formal engagement between Margaret and Howard, but he bad paid her marked attention—and then gone off and m.,. rled somebody else, leaving her to wear the willow. Well, after all. Mar garet was not wholly to blame for her part in the incident—she had been brought up that way—first to consider the fortune and then the man who possessed It Harrop'» fortune could have bal anced him very well Indeed. Her fall ure was due entirely to that human equation which no system ever yet In vented has been able wholly to elimi nate from the affairs of men—or women. At first naturally, Margaret was much chagrined. “Served me right" was Margaret's final verdict' on the affair. People talked and Margaret rose to the occa sion, setting afloat a rumor that she bad jilted Howard and not Howard her—a rumor which she fostered and circulated with such tact and persist ency that when It came to the ears of Harrop ho half believed It himself. But after all she felt rather “out of It” She saw young people making love, getting engaged and marrying around her and wondered If there was not somewhere In the world “another life without which her life was Incom plete.” And. then her parents died and left hqg, little or nothing; and then her greet aunt died and left her a great fortune, Awl Margaret was bow thirty yenre eld. Together with her aunt's estate Mar garet took over as manager of it the man who bad so long conducted the Ananda) affairs of her estimable and deceased relative. There la no use In disguising It—strike up the band I here comes the hero. Phillip Cummings, the financial director aforesaid, was of about Margaret's own age—perhaps a year or two younger, though he looked older. He was a staid, quiet person. Naturally he and Margaret were thrown very tpucb together in the way of business, and to ber surprise, the young lady found that she was linger ing over business matters with ber secretary flonger than was absolutely required by the circumstances. What did this mean? Could It be—? But pshaw 1 she was thirty yean old. She saw no signs that she bad awakened In Phillip Cumming's sentiments which she nbw realised had taken possession of her own heart Was she destined never to be loved? What was there about her that debarred ber from ex periencing, once In ber life, the joy ous knowledge that some one loved ber? But there she was, debarred by the very nature of things, from any be trayal of her real feelings In the mat ter. Suppose she should. Inadvertant ly, betray herself; and should meet with no response! The thought was too horrible. 8he would see as little so possible of PhllUp; would hold him at a distance lest she should hold him too near. The result was that an Icy barrier sc »null to arise between the two who had before been on a rela tion as nearly "chummy" as the po rtions of employer and employed per mitted. PhllUp felt the change. Things could manifestly not go on this way: One day Phillip offered hie resignation. “You will find everything In order, I think." said he. "and nat urally I win stay until you provide yourself with another manager." “But why do you resign. Phil—Mr. Cummings?*' naked Margaret He no ticed the slip aad blushed—and Mar garet blushed, too. "Are you not sat isfied with your salary»—or Is It your employer that you are dissatisfied with?" “My salary is most satisfactory, re plied Phillip," and until lately my em ployer bad been all kindness" "Then you have noticed a change In me of late?" "I have. Mlns Howard. “To what do you ascribe this change?" ‘To my presumption." "Your presumption ? have yon presumed?" “Oh. Miss Howard." The Pioneer Methodist Church Three Ways to Dolt Philip D.

It's something anyone can do something you can start today and see results in a weekl AU you do is give your vital organs the right stimulant. A famous doctor discovered the way to stimulate a sluggish system to new energy. It brings fresh vigor to rrerp argon. Being a physician's prescription, it's quite harmless.

Get rid of waste matter that is alow “Oh, to be sure,” said Wren, remem bering the suit at the tailor’s and won dering somehow whether Mias Ames knew of his errand there. “I do have to go -out for a few minutes later on." Then a pleasant man of sixty named Brown approached Wren. ‘It you weren’t going out I’d ask you to make up a table of bridge," he said. “There'd be my wife and I and Miss Drew If we could get a fourth. It's too chilly to go up yet” TH play," said Wren, and then, "only I Imagine Miss Drew will have another partner presently.” But apparently MI m Drew had no other partner. The table was opened, Mrs. Brown went upstairs for ths cards and the four sat dowli with Miss Ames constituting an uninvited audience with her chair drawn up be tween that of Wren and Mias Drew. So they played, and as they played and no caller arrived for Miss Drew, Wren's Jealousy abated, and as It abated bis admiration for ber in creased.
