DAGGER FINDS LOVE CRUEL
AFTERWARD Howard asked
himself many times how It had
occurred. As lie reached to steady
her when her horse shied, she nes

his elbow.
Then be. was conscious ot bor
face turned up to him, ber oyeB
glowing, ber lips parted expectant,
ly. The soft pressure of her mouth
brought him to his senses. He al
most pushed her from him.
"Here, no philandering," he heard
himself Bay dryly, "Wo ought to
get home."
He drove lu the spurs, and Dagger-
Imitated him. He didn't look
at1 her, She never spoke, When,
at last, he reined In his sweating
"We'll always be friends,
won't we?" tald Howard.
mount, and stole a glance In her di
rection, her features were set in
the mask she affected lu games ot
ohauce, ,
"Sorry, Dagger," he' exclaimed
Impulsively,. "Shouldn't have done
that.. All , my faulL"
"It., wasn't." she answorcd ns
curtly. "Why shouldn't you havo?"
"Well,' It's not the kind of thing
. "I. wanted you to."
"You're only a child, dear "
"I made you do It."
"Nonsense! It was the stars, and
know you like mo a little "
"1 like you a lot a hell of a lot,"
she panted.
"You think you do," he said gent
ly. "But you see, I'm ever so much
older, and I have a wife, and"
"I hate her, tbe pale thing!" Her
vehemence startled him. "So do
you, Ulalne. You know you do."
"No, I don't hate her," he denied.
". wondor sometime! If I didn't ex
pect too much 'Of her."
"You dldn'L ' You wouldn't."
Dagger choked down a sob. "You
your'e too decent."
"Me decent?" He laughed savage
ly. "And Just stole a kiss from a
.girl of your age!"
She threw her arm back, and
slapped blm full across the face.
"You you couldn't steal a kiss
from me. You nr any man! ftklss
ed yon bocause I wanted to and I
made you klsa me because 1 wanted
you to. And I slapped you because
I wanted to. And I'm going to
ha-ha-bate you because t want to."
Danger lay sleepless, her brain
a seelhlug furnace, her soul racked
by tempests ot rage rage at How
urd, rage at horsolf, rage at fate.
Was this what love brought In Its
train? Hotter hate! But slowly, as
the hours passed, reason reasserted
Itself, It wasn't Howard's fault he
wis married. Nor that she loved
blm.
She wakened to a flood of sun
shine across the floor, aud her
uncle's drawling voice outside tho
vlndow.
"Key, yew Juan, snake out that
stuff to the car and then yew tell
Mr. Howard It's here."
Dagger sat up with a Jerk. The

He would. Oh, what a fool she'd

Why So Many
People Wear
!; Glasses Today
Eai'h ueiv wondei' thht
lias brought power' to
man has brought an ad
ded strain to the bodies
of men. That is why
more and more people are
wearing glasses, 'v h i 1 e
their eyes are1 as sound 'as
ever. Twentieth century
civiliaatioirlias brought a
greater need' for accurate
vision, but tho evolution
of the eycij has not been
rapid enough to-meet the
visual requirements of
the present day.
Eyesight examinations
Have become health ex
aminations. Eyesight
conservation, and the importance-of
early correc
tion of eye troubles is bet
ter understood, than, ever
before. Eyeglass lenses
give greater clarify and
the old-fashioned spec
tacle has been-modernized
by the introduction of at
tractive white gohU We
live in an age of increased
.visual accuracy-.
The hum of busy facto
ries, the seething activity
of great offices, and the
tunnoil of thronging trafk
fic havo invaded peaceful
communities. New occu
pations, which now en
gage millions; tax eye
sight as it never was
taxed by the older pur
suits. The reason for this
is readily apparent. Our
ancestors spent most of
tlieir t i m e out-of-doors.
Then, too, in earlier days
most "seeing" was done
-at., long range. Only a
minimum amount of close
work was demanded of
the eyes; A working, day
ended when the sun went
down and the eyes en
joyed longer periods of
rest.-
How different are con
ditions today 1 We spend
our days in offices and.
f a c t o ries concentrating
upon tasks which involve
a degree of eye-strain un
known a few generations
ago. But not content
with this; we have turned
night into day. We work
and play and sew and
read by artificial light.
While we seek no end of
relaxation for the mind
and body the eyes scarce
ly ever allowed to rest, ex
cept when closed in sleep.
