I nover had any trouble with any of the others, always felt well, was able to do all my own work right up to the last, never suffered very long with any exoept the last one, and I am sure that would not bare been bad I taken the 'Prescription' as before.” —Mrs. Benito 8trohaUen, 877 88th St. A ll dealers.

How could she work with Hand sprawling In the win dow-scat at her side, brown hand touching her hand, gray eyes holding her eyes? Every day he worked fa ith fully on the Bo’s’n, Bemis’ yacht, worked very hard for a few hours to spare himself more time to he with her, appearing at the Lone Pine every morning promptly nt eleven o’clock, the hour of her late breakfast, which was breakfast and luncheon tn one. "So this Is how one lives on noth Ing a year,” she said to him one day, toughing. "Well, I am relieved. I know at least that you w ill never starve." The next morning he hnnded her a pound of the best coffee obtainable at the Pier grocery store. lie was very haughty. “ I may be low. hut I have my pride.” he said. “ My coffee I And when It Is gone, kindly notify me. More w ill be forthcoming.” "Don't forget the electricity,” she reminded him gayly. “ It must be a nickel a week." And laughingly she accepted the dingy coin he selected carefully from a handful to give her. Every day he went up the slope to the Lone Pine at sunset, that sweetest hour of the day, and sat with her In the window-sent on the west, looking down to the buy where the sky burned with fresh blown gold amt llame and umetliyst, burned fiercely for a wlille before It paled to smoking embers, pastel shades of rose and violet and cream. And when the em bers had faded to gray ash. they went tuto the woods, and walked up and down beneath the trees that gossiped to one another above them, and brent tied deeply of ttie lutoxlentlng sptees of the forest—pine, and spruce, and tlr. At that hour they never tnlked. but wandered slowly here and there, stumbling sometimes over the twisted old roots of trees or fallen logs, sibl ing over treacherous rocks, holding hands like children, smiling at each ottier. One night they lingered long In the forest, so that dusk was blackening the shadows when they turned up be hind the L ittle club, Ir that pathless bit of the wood. As they went on. laughing softly, and stumbling, sud denl.v, without a sound, they came up to one who was walking toward them, swiftly, surety, toward the shore. All feet full softly on the thick p il lowing of pine needles and dry mosses, hut those feet that came to meet them nnde no sound at all. As they entne together, Gny looked up. with keen but friendly Interest to see who walked In her enchanted wood nt nightfall, and then she caught her breath with a sudden startled Intake The face that she saw In the dusk was sharply familiar, unmistakable, a thin little face that showed yellow In the gloaming, like yellow parchment, with narrow, sloping r ' r ond eyes, and beneath one of them a faint shining murk, like a seam tn the parchment, where a scar soared the flesh, the face ot a yellow, little old Chinaman. In the dusk as she had seen It he- ! fore, she saw It again, a.id In the frac tlon of a moment, the dusk received j him ngnln. noiselessly, as It had re reived him before Gay had not by any means forgot : ten her flrst night on ’ he Island: when j she tay alone In the cottage on the fringe of the woods In her great ex- j hanstlon of mind and physical wearl ness; when, sleeping, she had seemed to feel a gaze upon her. and stirred I to see. or think she saw the thin yet 1 low face tn the gloaming; and had I turned again to her sleep, saying dreamily It was hut a dream.
