And besides what sifts hove I?" . Bob sat up, facing her. His rolce and his gaze were a caress, i "Leaving out your beauty,'' he (aid, "and your well, we'll call It your personality you have the gift of high spirits and gaiety, the gift of gentleness and sweetness: a genuine liking for people and the sensitiveness and tenderness to draw them out; above all, the gift . lo hearten a man and make him think well ot himself." "I couldn't do It now. - You've painted a glorified picture of the old Fanny. I'm not gay any more. Ask David." "You were going to tell me about it. I suppose It's that mother-in-law of yours. Why In .pod's name did David take you back there to live?" "It was my fault, not David's," Fanny began. She wanted In Jus' tlce to David to tell Bob how ber careless Ignorance and worse ltad broken op .Ills Seattle plans, but the memory was too bitter. "1 was so deeply to blame," sbe went on after a pause, "that I And can't talk about IL You proba bly have heard. If, yon haven't Leila will tell you." .', . .'; Leila had written Bob at the. time Bob remombered now. ' .' "AU right." v Bob's voice was h-arae with pity. ; "David la caught in a trap," Fan ny wjent on in an even tone. "He made a solemn promise to live with his mother as long as his uncle lived; About a year ago I begged him to tnko me away. I told him 1 couldn't be happy there--tkat it was stifling me, shriveling me up inside, ' And he promised to have It hut with Jncle Judd. But Uuele Judd' was ill and David kept put ling It off. Then Uncle Judd bad Ills stroke. The doctors say he may live 20 years. And David fools bound to keep his promise now that he can't ask to' be released." ' "In other words, he sacrifices you to satisfy his sensitive conscience. I suppose he calls It his honor. Ad mires' himself." "Don't! Don't begin sympathlz Ing. I can't bear It." At the break in her voice Fanny found herself swept Into Bob's arms and wooplng comfortably on his twoed shoulder. "There, that's done me worlds of good,'.' said Fanny. Gently sbe re leased hersolf, patted Bob's ihaud, managed a smile. "I bavon't had anyone to talk to or anyone to tool Sorry for me since you and Amelia went away excopt Leona, our cwik." 1 "I' writo Amelia," said Bob grim ly, "and I think I'll also take It upon myself to tell David a thing or two that is, If you're determined not to go with me." .. Fanny shook her heud. ! '' "Don't bo idiotic, Bob. ' You mustn't say anything to David I'd never forgivo you. He has the wqrld on his shouldors now, poor boy. Ho Un't 80 yet, and he's prac tically running that bank. It's an enormous responsibility, and you know how conscientious ho is. and how he worries." "It might do him good to worry about you for a change take you a little to henrt," Interrupted Bob viciously. "Oh, but he docs ho's alwnys worrying about me. Naturally I don't run to him with constant com plaluts of his mother It would drive! him crasy." "You poor kid!

It's, not so easy lo Iain- haste the life out of one's own moth er and it would only make things worse if he did. "You're right. Who am 1 to sneer at David? 1 beg your pardon, Fan, but It makes me so damned mad and I so powerless to haip' you! Did you ever try oiling her to inlud her own business?" ' "More or less. But she always makes me pay for it." "How, for Instance?" "Oh, by black looks, and a frosty silence and a general air of being terribly abused and put upon. 'Some times she hardly speaks to me for days and days." Bob swore savagely under his breath. . "I'm not much good," Fanny went on wearily. "I haven't the strength to fight for what I think right or the character lo make the best of my weakuess. A year ago you would have been appalled If yon could have seen how black my heart was. Now haven't even the ener gy for a good active hatred." ' Tboy walked down the hill almost In silence. When they came to the edge ot a little covert, and Fanny saw that Bob was going to kiss her, Bhe drew back. ' " "Please, Bob," sho pleaded, "i can't see you again unless you are going to be wise for both ot us. It's been such a comfort to talk to you you've helped me bo tremen dously." "Helped you," Bob spat the words at her, and strode ahead down the hill, barely speaking even at part ing. It was almost 6 and Fanny lingered at the gate until David came, aud went In with him. Mrs. Frost was in the library reading the evening paper. "Mrs. Greenoulgb was here this afternoon," she accused. "She was very much disappointed not to see yon." "rt was much too fine for Fanny to stay Indoors," said David Impa tiently. "Anyway, Mrs. Greenoulgh came to see you, not Fanny." " "Mrs. Greenonlgh Is partial to young people. Bhe made a special point of asking If Fanny would he herb when alio telephoned. Fanny assured me that she would be." . "I meant to bo, but Bob asked me to go walking and " 1 "Bob who'" '..

"Have vou,,oearifc Davldkwhat Bob la doing now to spite not only Leila but Leila's family?" .r, ' "Yes, Mother, and I think the less fuss made' over' it the better"Hetl t(re ot It soon enough, unless we encourage: him by raising a big pother, 'f tint's what, he's hoping for." ' "' 1 "' "Perhaps," said Mrs. Frost ma Jostlcnlly, "but I think you' will agree that tbo least Leila's family cau do to show their loyalty In her trouble and distress Is to stand back of her, and Ignoro the man who Is doltig everything In his power to huniillnlo her nnd niaka her unhap py. . If Emmelliie finds out thai Funny has been walking with Bob I doubt whotber she will ever enter this house again. We have been In tlmalos fur GO years, but I cannot say that I Should blohie her." "Nonsense, Mother. . As long as Lolla and Bob are' living together anil he does nothing more violently wlckoil than running his father's store It would be Idiotic to cut him." "Very well. But I give warning that I mean to show him the door it be comes lioro. Leila, poor child, Is almost prostrated." David had overtoil the wrath tem porarily from her, but Fanny know that she would never be able to see Bob again without paying for It Novortholoss Fanny meant to con tinue seeing Bob Daniels. He was her friend, her loyal and devoted friend, nnd he and she had need ot friends Just now.

Then I weut nnd consulted Chan and Kong, Herb Specialists and in two weeks time I was completely cured nnd I wish to rec ommend Chan and Kong to all persons who are sick. Very truly yours, (Signed) JOHN HEARING, .... Talent, Oregon. Liver Trouble at Age of 75 Oakland, California, Feb. 15, 1930. Dear Chan and Kong: To begin with, 1 am seventy-five years old. For several years past, 1 have felt more like a dead man than one with any desire for life. My liver and stomach appeared to be the seat of my trouble, ns 1 was badly constipated, with little or no appetite, and my breath was so vilely bad that no one willingly stood near to converse with me. To one doctor after another I went in search of relief but for the most part, beyond drastic purgatives and headache powders, none of them really got at the seat ot my ailment and brougth me any permanent relief. Then, five months ago. 1 began your treatment which has heen continued faithfully until tbdny when I find myself feeling like a young man. thoroughly cured with nn excellent appetite, a clean breath, perfect sleep and every suggestion ot dizziness gone. Cer tainly I am more than glad to give you my heartiest endorsement. Yours truly, WILLIAM GILL, SIS Jefferson Street, Oakland, Calif. Heart Trouble and Dizziness Oakland, Jnnunry 27, 1930. Dear Chan and Kong: I welcome the opportunity to express my appreciation of and my gratitude lor the herb treatment which I received from you through a period of six weeks. I now found myself apparently completely restored to health, a condition to which I have heen a stranger for a very long time. Mainly, my trouble was diagnosed as. heart trouble and ill con nection with that 1 was subject to frequent spells of dizziness, wns very nervous and without ambition to work or to do unytliing worth while. My appetite deserted me and I lost quite steadily In weight, therefore, when you had. been strongly recommended to me I ci cided on giving the herbs 0. trial, which resulted as I have slated, greatly lo my satisfaction. You are at liberty lo refer to me at any time and 1 assure you of my heartiest endorsement. Yours very truly. tOriglnnl Signed! E. R. GATES. , . UK Harvard Road, Piedmont. , The Pacific Tel. & Tel.
