T- PA"GE SEVEN -a ...J I ID)A(E(EIEDS ''(by IVlary DIilberfi SYNOPSIS: Dagger Marley, l-pear-ola) niece of a Texas rancher, rescues Blaine Howard, American adxenturer, from some Mexican tnsurgents. he falls in love with him, but Howard is already mar ri(d, though uphappily. Later he is reported probably dead on the HVKent Front in France, and Dagger is heartbroken. She meets l.'flpfofu Jack Vaneering, flying ace, and they are married when ! in suddenly ordered back to France. In .Veto fork, at Vaneer i'lg't home, his mother meets Dag ger with icy disapproval, but his father and sister Kitty like her at Once. Meanwhile Vaneering is f ounded in France. Dagger meets Dick Welling, now Lord Wedlock, a srtf-exilcd Englishman who lived tit her uncle's rgnch. He reveals tie is to mnrry Howard's widow, whom he has always loved, and who was forced to marry Howard I'V a fortune-hunting mother. Cap fa ('I Vrtfcrfn7 is ordered home intf the family goes to' meet him at the. pier. Chapter 18 A WRECK OF A MAN 'ITTY regarded askance the . wan figure of Captain Vaneer- lag slouching on the lower-deck rail. "Pasting the booze again." she loramented Inelegantly. "Seaslck uesa medicine. I suppose." Jack glowered down at them. He had a cane, they could see, and on leg was strapped Into an Iron framework. His uniform was spick- Gambling and drinking were all Jack cared about. nnd span, but his face, even at this distance, 'showed bloated and spotty. There was a strained look around his eyes, and bis shoulders stooped as if they supported a weight too heavy for them. A hint ;f desperation In bis bearing wrung bagger's heart; but'what hurt her most was the evidence of dissipa tion written broad across his fea .;ires. No war-shock, alone, there, lie had been drinking heavily, in 'Icflance of his promise to her. "Ho looks very unwell," Mr. ancering said thoughtfully. "How could he look 'f3ll. after what he's gone through?" objected Mrs. Vaneering. "Poor, dear boy! -ie must have suffered agonies. v'e must all try to make him com i nrtahle. Alcxandra,"- "It he'll let us." Dagger an swered mechanically. "Let us! Of course, he'll let us." Kitty muttered a phrase that In luded the word "spoiled" in It. nd Mr. Vaneering fluttered con lllntingly. Dagger took no further trt In (he conversation. Her mind as occupied by a series of bitter ifiertlons during the Interval of inking the steamship fast. A 'rpmlse. to her. : was a promise,, mt to he lightly given, never to ie evaded, much less broken; and "he couldn't resist the conviction that .he would be unable to re spect a husband whose code, was different. ' But when 'she glimpsed Jack's shambling bulk at the end of the rangplank.-, she managed to bar 'jch thoughts from her mind, and mustered a cheery, smiling face. Her arms were open for him as he planted a wobbly foot on the pier. ."Darling!" Sho protended brave ly. "It's heavenly to kiss you! How's jour poor knee?" "Good eno git." ho answered, re turning her kiss almost perfunc torily. "But don't lean on me. there's a good girl. They've put this damn brqco on me to keep a my leg from shrinking. Where's mother?" Dagger waved a hand toward the Vaneerlngs, and hoped nobody saw the corrow in her eyes. But If Jack had been perfunctory with her, he was equally so with his family. But what liu actually wanted, as Dagger suspected, what was at the back of hU moodiness: was an op- JURY REFUSES TO I'VANITI NEW YORK. Aus. 12.

Wood hum (irts First Pears, f SALEM. Ore., Aug. 11- OP) The first pears to be received at the ! Woodburn cannery were received j yesterday from the Roneburg dis-j : trict. I Ashland Llthla Springs Hotel coffee shop opened to public, J portunlty to drink unwatched. He said as much as soon as they were alone. "That promise I made you, Dag ger." "Yes?" she prompted. "Well, why don't you ask me about It?" he barked. "Why should I, Jack? I'm your wife, not your persecutor. I don't Intend to question you about any thing you've done or not done." "It was a crazy idea." he explod ed aggressively. "Silly! A man had to drink to stand the gaff of combat flying. Have you any cou ceptlon of what It meant?" "Perhaps 1 haven't," Dagger ad mltted. "I asked you only because I knew that is. I thought you'd be happier In the long run If you stayed sober." "Happier." ho sneered. "I'd have been dead." "You might not have been wounded," she pointed out. "Blind luck machine-gun bullet from the ground doesn't happen once In a million tries. But other times Why. I'd have done In, If I'd had to fly cold! You've got to be boiled up for that sort of thing above yourself." She said nothing, and after a while he remarked: "N'ot very glad to see me, are you? Disappointed, eh?" "What would you say, Jack?" "Guess I'm no good," he mut tered. "I was a drinker when we were married. Maybe I shouldn't have asked you." "Is that all I mean to you?" He seized her by both arms roughly, but with an earnestness that temporarily soothed her grief. "You mean everything to me. You're the one human soul I care about. But don't try to ride me on this drinking. I've been through hell, Dagger the fighting, and the fellows I've seen go West, and this knee, and and Just the war end ing like this got me. I wanted an other shot at the Boche. It's all I'm good for. What am I going to do?" She patted his cheek, mother wise, his offenses forgiven. "We'll fly together. Jack dear. Let's organize a transportation company. Oh, there are lots of things to do. We might travel. I'd like to see the world, and if we flew it would be doubly fascinating, wouldn't it?" "Maybe not Not a bad scheme. But 1 don't know can't fix my mind on anything yet." He moved restlessly., j "Let's have a drink. Let's go out and see the -town after dinner. People over here aro for getting' the war; they can he gay. and enjoy themselves. That's what I'd like to do." For a time Dagger clung to ,the hope that Jack's condition was temporary, a case of soul-shock such as 'was common among the returning soldiers, so suddenly re leased from the nerve-strain of the war; but as the weeks passed he became no better. He had no seri ous Interests, and couldn't be per suaded to adopt any; bis injured knee precluded him from active sports; -all he cared about was gambling and drinking, two crav Ings it was Impossible for him to satisfy. Jack's parents suffered as much as she, and in the Spring when Mr. Vaneering died suddenly of a heart attack. Dagger knew that grief had hastened his end. Meanwhile Kitty had married an old lover back from the war and had gone to Detroit to live. Can Dagger eeriuada har hut. hand to pull hitiself together and b pnee more the man she loved in Texas?

This Is accounted for largely by the f.iet that the averago individ ual seeks to rid himself of pain tho quickest way. even though tho method employed may not bo of ultimate hencfit to Ills health, tin seeks rather to eliminate or deaden the effects of his disease than to determine tho real cautalivo factor and slrivo to nmko tho abnormal condition again normal. lleadacho is a term used to ex press pain in different parts of tho head or perhaps one which nffects the entire structure. IIKADACHKS which aro due to abnormalities In the tissues within the skull are known as organic, while those which are duo to ab normalities in other parts of tho body are called functional. V may say la general that tho head aches which aro tho result of in volvement of the intracranial tis sues are more severe and would in reality be classed with the ceplia- loea. while tlu.se which result from functional disturbances of organs outside tile cranial cavity may bo classed with cephalalgia. Involve ment of the dura mater, and in fact any of the covering mem branes of brain or cord. Is mum apt to produce headaches than su Involvement of tho brain substa'ico , itself. Wo do not drive out tile disease, because a disease Is a name used to express tho absence of normali . Ity in a given structure. Wo can : no more drive out rtlseaso than wo :can drive out darkness. Wo can only bring In health as we can ad mit light or as we can gather knowledge; and thua the apparent disease becomes no more a sub stantial reality, but a vague re mcmbranco of a condition whore health did not exist. Tile Chiropractor Is better fitted to bring about those comllliona which aro productive of health than any profession striving to ac complish the end of driving out something which is not present. The very foundation upon which Chlropraclle Is erected is tho ad mission that all things wore In tended to be normal, healthy and happy. It Is because of tho In ability of tho life-giving energy, of which we aro all possessed, to reach nil tissues of tho body, that health is not existent in thoso tissues and that diseasn inevitably results, j Wo do maintain, and our con tention Is hased upon conclusive. knowledge, that every organ In tho body in order to be normal must be supplied with Its full quota of - mental impulses or vital energy. ! 'J'heso mental impulses aro origin ated by Innate Intelligence, with which each living unit Is supplied. Tho only path whereby they may uansnmiou to tnolr ultimate destination in the tissue celln Is through tho ncrvo fibres originat ing in tho brain, omitting through tho spinal cord, and branching as an Intricate network to every tis sue cell in the organism. It is fur-., thor conceded that the only places in tho body whore any intorfer oneo Is possible with the trans-. mission of theso Impulses Is at those points where the nerves omit from tho spinal column and aro subject to the prcssuro of tho hard bony segments of which tho spine, is composed. Tho only possible way that n dis eased condition may be roplaced by a condition of health is to permit the freo passage of mental Im pulses from the brain to tho tissue cells, thus permitting tho materials to receive the vital energy upon which they aro sol.ly dependent tor their llarmonl.ius activities. With this accomplished disease, cannot exist, and when disease does not exist symptoms cannot mani fest themselves. It ts as Impos sible for a headache or any other symptmn to bo present In tho hu man body with tho spine in perfect ullgnnient as it ia for darkness to express Itsolf In tho broad light of tho shining Btin; tho two absolute ly cannot co-exist. In conclusion wo would sav that tho old methods of eliminating tho symptoms without thought or caro us to tho conditions which aro pro ducing thoso symptoms Is tho rank est kind of roily. Whoro nn hon est offort Is made to locate tho dls oaso which Ih productive of tho headache, tho possibilities of a cor rect diagnosis are, to say tho least, uncertain. If a correct diagnosis is made and the old methods of treating the disease aro employed, success Is not within tho rungo of possibility. On tho other hand, when a chir opractor roplace the segments of tho spine In perfect alignment with ono nnother, the carrying capacity of tho nerves must bo one hundred per com, nnd tho functioning of tho organs of the body all must he nor mal. If all organs and Mummoh I function normally, no symptoms can manliest tncmsolves. Kvory Individual who auffora from headaches owos It to himself to havo his spine so aligned that dlseaso cannot exist, oven though temporarily dormant. Tho tlnrn required to bring about that condi tion where headaches no longer occur Is dependent, not upon tho severity, character or location of I he headache, hut entirely upon tho time required to replace tuo seg ments of tho splno In their normal position and thus make possible tho freo expression of Innate In telligence In tho bodily organs.
