Preparedness for meeting accident or sudden Illness Is emphasized as a sensible and season able sales plan which serves to alle viate needless suffering and undoubted ly save life. The National Association of Retail Druggists sponsored this ad-sales plan end later added Pharmacy Week as or autumn festival for Intensive advertis ing and salesmanship In the drug world The National Wholesale Druggists Association and the National Asocia tlon of Drug Clerks have Joined tin N.

It was Dr. William E Weiss, himself a graduate from tint ranks of retail druggists, who first saw the value of "First Aid Home Remedy Week," and wherever live-wire drug gists have co-operated by showing a window filled with suggestive first elds both for accident or Illness, and using their home newspaper advertis ing space, they have added cheerfully to their March business.

WNU Svrvlea CHAPTER XI 18- A fresh wave of wrath painted Gin ger's t ce with rose. She Hashed from the secretion of her corner by the stairway Just In lime to see the run grocer press a ferveut and unmistak able kiss upon the delicate lips ot Miriam, the sensible twla Mirturu seemed cot In the least surprised, but rather pleased. Marjory, too, seemed to take the outrage wltb Indecent calmness, while Eddy Jackson wore a smile no less than diabolic. "Just for that, Eddy Jackson, you owe me ninety dimes,'' she announce) sternly. "Nine whole dollars I spent on this comedy of yours." And she marched straight to the kitchen. Only Eddy Jackson heard her. For Miriam, the last shred of ber sensi bility thrown to the winds, was cling Ing to Alexander's hands, and trying to draw Marjory by sheer force Into the warmth of bis neirnesa. Eddy fol lowed Ginger to the kitchen. "Aw, have a heart," be pleaded "lie told me to do it." Ginger stared at a pan on the stove, where thick heavy bubbles rose and fell. "Too see the gravy Is burning," she said, and offered not a hand to save 1L "Let It burn, t hi pe It does burn I hope the gravy burns him. and the alligator pear choke him, and the fried chicken gives him pernicious anemia." Eddy laughed. -"Listen, wild one, and I'll tell the deep and bloody mys tery of that young mans' life. No body knows It Marjory doesn't know It. Miriam herself doesn't know It Rut 1 know It and I'D tell you. He really la a romantic figure most ro mantle " "Canned beans, canned corn, canned tomato soup, canned peaches It makes me 8lck--canned sweet potatoes" she recounted drearily. Eddy Jackson brlt-kly stirred the gravy as be talked. Eddy was fond of creum gravy. "lie's no grocer. Ills family owns that chain gang set, whatever you cull It, the Orange and I'.iack, all over the country. Alex will be some high mucky muck-manager one of these days. They sent him on this trip west to familiarize himself with the bust ness, and the localities this new Idea of know your stuff from the ground up." Ginger took the smho. away from him. After all, it was tier gravy. "Eddy, why didn't you tell me?" "He told me not to. Nobody knew It. Not even the chain bunch here In town." "Rut yon should have told mep "If anybody asks me not to tell something that la n-ne of my business and nobody else'a 1 won't tell It," said Eddy firmly. "Just like father," mourned Ginger Suddenly a fresh amuze swept over her. 'Rut Eddy, Just see what a mess you've made of It Why, lie s never so mueb as looked at Marjory." "1 should say not He's nuts over Miriam." "Rut Miriam Miriam hasn't got a thing but brains." "She's got Alexander Murdock." "Does Miriam think be la a real grocer?" "Yes. She told me she would marry him If be was a shoe shiner." "Morry blra. Did he ask her?' "Sure. That's what he came back for. Drought ber the engagement ring." Gluger'f eyes glittered. "Put an other chair at the table, will you? And get me a knife ano fork from Hint drawer. There won't be any waiting on at this party. You can carry the plates back and forth yourself." So Ginger accepted Alexander Mur dock as a prospective brother In luw, and one to be received wltb a certain amount of gratitude. After all, he could give them a reduction on the canned groceries. She shook hand with him, exclaimed Joyously over the brilliant solitaire wliti b adorned Ml rlam's slender ringer arid admitted that the denouement was well worth the ninety dimes expended. "Why dimes?" demanded Eddy curl ously. "Oh, thHt's the way I get It I mean save It," Ginger amended quickly. She regarded hei twin sisters reflec tively, one after the other. Mlrlum was well enough of course, the stlii. deep kind, nothing surprising, nothing startling about her. Mlrlum was the type that one gets used to. Rut Mar jory's brilliancy was a fresh reveln tlnn, an entirely new amazement, very day. "Retiuiy's queer, Isn't It?' she puz tied. Then she studied her own Itiimni features In the mirror, Mini for m Aral time, not without some Uua. "txok me over, will you? Does any body see any signs of It on mo?" CHAPTER XII The new Methodist church of Red Thrush, Iowa, was an established fact Mr. Tolllver, his eyes carefully shield ed behind the padded glasses, had preached the tender sermon which served both to dedicate the new church, and to bid farewell to his parishioners, for the general confer ence was to convene the week follow ing. He had accepted the inundate ot the church, and planned to live In re tirement until some work of different nature could be found for him, or, as he said, until the Lord chose to bless the meant used for his restoration, lie continued In close correspondence with new surgeons, the best and the most expensive the Middle Weal af forded. On this day, the twins had gone to college. Eddy Jackson enma In his car and took them and their new bags to the train, after which with Ginger he drove slowly back to the parson age which would be her home for a brief fortnight longer. Ginger did not know Just what wus to become of her and her father, but Ginger didn't care. They were always taken care of, would always be. And there was the rich munificence of the home for the blind at their command, although of this her father still knew nothing. They would remain with Miss Jenkins in the par sonage until after the conference, nnd then go for what they called a visit to Helen and Horace for a while, un til they could decide upon the best plan for the future. The one Interest of Ginger herself was to retrain In Red Thrush ns long ns possible.

Ginger and Eddy sat alone In Die llv Ing room of the old parsonage, rather still, a little deproted with their aloueness. In the small den on the left, beyond the curve of the staircase. they could bear Hiram's low voice. talking to her fattier, while they sorted and parked old matiiii rlpts. ready for removal from the hotu that had been their home for four jears. Miss Jen kins had gone to her room, to weep over the departure of the twins. Gin ger had seen her go, with relief. Mist Jenkins' weeping depressed her to the deepest extreme. "Well. It's all over now," she said dully. "Helen's married, the twins are gone, and father and I are fired." "Oh, nonsense. Helen Is well off and very happy. The twins will bo home for Christmas, and your 'hi her will get a better church than Red Thrush." "Eddy" Her voice sank to a whisper. "Do you think he will ever see again? Do you think even the most expensive doctor In the world can cure him?" "Why, of course he will see again Didn't all the dociors say the same thing, that It was Just nervous and mental reaction, and In time " "Ifs a long time, though. Very long." "You're so Impatient, Ginger. Cut that's because you're young." A jutck loud knock ut the door When Amateur Sleuth Most men possess a huge contempt for the detective ability of the poll re nnd nurse a confident belief that If Ir were put up to them they would solve any mjsterj In Jig time. On Long Hand lives a man who not only believes that Sherlock Holmes was a slouch compared to him. but who gets In some active pructlce. If a crime Is committed In his locality he makes a bee line for the police station and starts In to "help" the department The police do not relish his Interference, but they've got to humor him because of his Influence. Rut this man proved to he too good a detective. One day he called ut the station to see If there was anything doing and wus told A a motor cur startled her to her feel with a nervous Hasp, but she quickly recomposed her self, and went In answer. The post man stood there, and with htm auothet limn, behind them another, both strun gett Inspectors, poaslhly, Gliiget, thought, come to check up for stutls 1 1 fnl purposes. Sho smiled at th post mini. "Mull?" the asked The postman showed embarrass inent "Well, yes," he said awkwardly "You are IS. Tolllver, aren't you?" "Why, of course I am. You know I am. Ellen. Iluve yon no letters for .me?" Suddenly the was aware that the man In the rear carried large mall pouch. He stepped ahead of tho others and entered the room. The poMiman and bla compim'i n followed silently. Ginger followed, also. Eddy Jackson stood np. The nian In the dark suit opened tbe pouch, and lifted It high, pouring out a little stream of letters upon the table. Then, for the first time, the third man spoke. "IV you claim thlt niulir "Why, of course. I'm the only R. Tolllver there la, E. stands for Ellen." "Walt minute, wait a minute, now. You claim thlt mall, do you? You acknowledge that It It meant for you? You admit thlt before wit nesses?" "Re careful. Ginger," Interposed Eddy Jackson quickly, scenting trouble. "Dou't say anything. Don't commit yourself." "Yon keep out of thlt, young man. Well, in I us, then you" "Why, of course I clulm It," tald Ginger quickly. "It'a all right. Eddy, It's for me. Why, I've had a lot Just like It" She smiled dlsnrmlngly a'l the postman. "You know," the added significantly. "Well, you all hear that." laid the third man. In emirtlng low voice "She clulnis it Stwa (be one we'rt after." Ginger turned turprlsed. wide, Inno cent eyes upon bla face. She did not speak, "Well, come across now, miss. GIvs us the goods. Where It thlt beri home parsonage home for the blind you call It? I don't tee any signs ol It" Hit voice woe low and ugly. Ginger smiled nervously. "Well but you see, this really Is It Father's blind, you know, and this Is our home And the parsonage, well, this Is tin parsonage. Everybody In town knows that" "Yen. 1 know all about It and a pretty slick game, 1 call It Rut I guess we've got the dope oo you, rlghl enough.

M shouted to the shocked old postmun who had endeavored to Interpose t word on ber behalf. "You shut up and keep out of thle." He turned t Ginger, and caught her arm In a roust grnsp. "(Vitne along, now, and ni more monkey business" Eddy was slow young man, slow to wrath, but the sight of the great red hand on Glnger't slender aria goaded him to action. "You take your handj off that glrll he shouted, springing across the room with a blind violence that tent twe chairs spinning away from nil. "Hush, oh, bush," begged Ginger "Eddy, don't I I'm not burt Ob, don't let father bear you I Ob, pleasi bushP "Bring out yonr old man bring out the whole nest," bellowed the officer furiously. "We'll clian bouse bert while we're at It" Ginger turned despairingly ro Eddj Jackson. "Eddy, make hlui hush I Father's eyea A shock will Ob. Eddy I" The officer, pulling himself away from Eddy's restraining hand, caught her shoulder with a grnsp thot flung her half to the floor, and Eddy, driven entirely reckless at the sight lenped upon him.
