THE WINGHAM ADVANCE -TIMES SYNOPSIS Pauline, sentimental, trustful, sin- cere and'. loving love, becomes engag- ed and' marries Dennis O'Hara in the belief that their blissful happiness will continued unchanged thru all the years. On her wedding morning she awakens with a strange premonition that maybe love does change, a thought buried in her mind by a let- ter from her closest friend, Barbara, the night before. Pauline adored Barbara who had been married, was the mother of a child which died, but now divorced and living a life which some of her friends could not under- stand, Between Denni§ and Barbara is a seeming wall of personal dislike by both. Six months after Pauline's wedding, Barbara comes for a short stay. During this visit Barbara con- fesses to Pauline that there is a man she really loves, but re refuses to tell his name. Barbara decides suddenly of go home and Pauline insists Den- nis driver her to the station, Irri- tated Dennis drives recklessly, and they are in a crash. Barbara esacpes injury but Dennis' leg is broken. As he returns to consciousness he learns who the man is that Barbara loves. It's himself. Dennis spend several weeks in the hospital. Barbara returns to stay with Pauline, but one pretext or an- other fails to visit Dennis with Paul- ine at the hospital. Pauline plans highly for Dennis' return home. Barbara stays only one day after Dennis' return from the hospital. 'Vlach -against his will Dennis finds a new attraction in Barbara, who plays the same cool and attached role as formerly. A fortnight after Barbara returns to New York, she receives a letter from Pauline that she and Dennis are coming to New York for a little vacation. Upon their arrival a round of gay entertainment gets under way —throwing Dennis and Pauline much into each other's company. Dennis is in love with Barbara. He breaks thru all barriers and tells her of his love. Pauline is called home by the illness of her mother. Dennis stays on. Barbara is happy. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Dennis walked to the window and stood looking out into the street. "Of course," he said after a mo- ment. "You needn't come," Pauline said breathlessly, -and waited. "I can go by myself quite well," she added as he. did not speak. "If you'll send a wire and see me off—" "Do you think you need go to- day?" "I'm sure. You see these letters have been sent on from home, so that makes it a day late." Dennis turned round. "If you'd like me to come with you—" She was so thankful to him for suggesting it that she broke into ea- ger refusal. "Of course not! It would be ever so dull for you with Daddy away." She slipped out of bed; she had quite forgotten her new negligee, but for the first time Dennis noticed it: "Where did you get that thing?" he asked. "What thing? Oh, this." She col- ored with pleasure. "It is rather nice isn't it? Barbar chose it, she's got such wonderful taste. I know you don't think so, but she has, all the same." "It's not so bad," Dennis said grudgingly, and then with awkward grace, he added, "It suits you." "Oh, do you think so?" She ran to him and lifted her face to be kiss- ed, "It's such a shame your holi- day is being spoiled," she added a moment later, "What will you do without me?" Dennis thrust a hand' into his coat pocket. "I heard from Stornaway this morning ---lie's coming to town for a few days, He wanted us to ditie with him to -night." He broke off and added, almost too urgently; "Stay till to -morrow." "Oh, I'd love to, but if Mother is ill—I'll pack now. You go and look up a train. Barbara will be sorry, won't she? We'd planned so many things." Dennis did not answer; he stood watching her with moody eyes. Suddenly he went to her and took her by the arms. "You're a good little soul," he said, "I love you," Pauline said with shining eyes. She felt perfectly happy, even though she was leaving Dennis. She was sure he would miss her terribly, but after all it was only for a few to," she said reluctantly. "Thank you so much. Then you'll be at Grand Central," Barbara turned away from the phone. She felt angry; she felt as if she had deliberately taken a treasure from a child's' hand, as she put on her hat and coat and sent for a taxi, Pauline was a fool to leave Dennis in. New York. Didn't she know, couldn't she see the way. the wind was blowing? It was absurd to be so blind and trusting. She reached Grand Central a mo ment before the train started. Paul- ine was already" seated. She looked somehow like a' child' going back to school after a happy holiday. "Don't lean out of the window," Barbara teased her, "and wait till the train stops." Pauline laughed, "I'll send you a wire directly after .I get home, Den- nis darling -and you'll write to me." He rriade a grimace. "You used to write lovely letters when we were engaged." Barbara laughed mockingly. "What a shame to throw his nasty past in his face:" But she was bit - "She is my wife, but it makes no difference to the fact that I love you." days, and then they wguld be togeth- er again. Barbara was dressing when Pauline rang her up. "Good-bye!" For a moment Bar- bara's heart seemed to stand still. What had happened? " `Good-bye'—what on earth—" "It's mother—she's . not very well," Pauline explained. "I'm going to stay with her for a few days. I'm awfully sorry, but—" "Shan't I see you again?" Barbara's voice was a little breath- less. Wouldn't she be abel to say good-bye to Dennis. "I'm going by the twelve -five train —it's the best. Dennis has booked a seat and is coming to see me off." Then he was not going with her. Barbara's pubes quieted. "The twelve -five from where?" she asked. "Grand Central." "I'll be there to see you off." "Will you? You are a darling, Barbara. You'll 'look after Dennis for me, won't you? Dr. Stornaway is coming up to town for a few days, so Dennis will have him, but I shall be much happier if I know you are looking after him as well, Barbie," "I don't imagine he will, though," Barbara said quickly. "Of course he will! I thought you had put that idea out of your head, I'm sure he really likes you, Barbie." Barbara gave a short. laugh. "I'll do my best—if you really want me THE FAMILY NEXT DOOR Commendable Economy terly jealous of that past and of the letters he had written to Pauline, The guard blew his whistle, and Pauline leaned out of the window and put her arms round her husband's neck. ".Good-bye, my precious, take care of yourself. Take care of him, Bar- bie." "He's quite capable of taking care of himself." Barbara said coolly. She stood silently beside Dennis till the train was out of sight; then she spoke. "I'll take a taxi. I'm in a hurry." "Where are you going?" "To lunch with Jerry." "That's not the truth," Dennis said calmly. "I ran into Barnet at the station ten minutes ago and he told me he was going down to Windsor to the races." Barbara bit her lip and made no answer. Dennis hailed a taxi and followed her into it. "Roman•o's, please," he told the driver. "You'll lunch with me," he said as they drove away. "You're very positive," she sneer-. ed. "1 am—as positive as I am that you never intended Iunching with Barnet." He laid his hand on hers, but she 4rew it sharply away. "Why did you tell me such a fib?" he asked. She shrank back away from him into the corner. "I feel such a cad," she said al- most violently. f Thugs., January 26th, •1.933: "How do you imagine I feel?"' "I don't think men have any .con- science when they want a thing bads ly enough," "As badly as I want you, Flo you; m.can ?„ She did not speak, and he went on "You've made mistakes, Barbara, haven't you?" "Dozens." "And paid for then?" "Bitterly." "Well -•-I'm• paying now," "You've got a vivid imagination:" "Have I?" He caught her hand suddenly and raised it to his lips. She had taken off her gloves, and he held heripalm against his lips as if it were something unutterably precious,' almost sacred. Barbara closed her eyes. This was what she had wanted; this was what she had longed' for, and almost pray- ed for; for months, and yet now it had come she was not happy. She thought of Pauline, speeding away, and again that terrible feeling swept over her that she was robbing a child of its dearest possession. "If you want me to lunch with you, you must behave," she said coolly, and put on her gloves. The taxi stopped and they got out: They were given a corner table in an alcove. He ordered .lunch, and 'Elie waiter went away. "When one comes to think of it," Barbara said consideringly, "why should you like me?"I. "Love you," he corrected obstin- ately. • She went on as if she had not heard. "I am nothing you admire — you say I drink too much and stay out too much at night. You think I have too many men friends". "I don't think, 'I know." "Yes, but I think you'd better sit up and try and look less interested in me. I'm rather well known here." "You seem to be well known ev- erywhere we go." She sighed. "I am. How can I help it? It's my life." "I wish I could take you out of it." "Dennis, don't be foolish." Bar- bara sipped her cocktail. "It's good," she said. "Well, here's to you." "And to you, and to everything that might have been, and may be yet," he said obstinately. Barbara drained her glass and set it down. "Everything that never will be," she said firmly. "What sort of a wretch do you think 1 am? Pauline is eny friend." "She is my wife, but it makes no difference to the fact that I love you." "You thought you loved' her when you: married her." "I did love her. I do love her in. some ways, but it's not the love I have for you. I can imagine that it, is possible to love many women as I Iove her, but only possible to love one as I love you." "You should write a book," Bar- bara mocked him. "I suppose you've heard ererything I can say to you from other men," he said savagely. She shook her head. "No. None, of them have ever been like you," • "Will you dine with .me and Stdrn- away to -night?" Dennis asked. "Certainly. not. I don't like Dr. Stornaway, and I know he doesn't approve of me. You forget that we met in the hospital when you were there." • "He knows nothing about you." "No, but he imagines he does." "Pauline requested yoti to look af- ter me," he reminded.` her with a glimmer of smile. Barbara , grew suddenly grave. "Have you ever thought what would happen if Pauline ever knew— ever found out-" She stopped, and. he broke in quickly: "Found .out—what?" "That you talk to me like this." "You mean that I love you, and that yoti love me?" "Well—have youever thought of what she would do?" (Continued Next Week) Get Rid 01 That RE THROAT! Any little soreness in the throat grows rapidly worse if neglected. Crush some tablets of Aspirin in some water, and gargle at once. This gives you instant relief, and reduces danger from infection. One good gargle and you can feel safe. If all soreness is not gone promptly, repeat. There's usually a cold with the sore throat, so take two tablets to throw off your cold, headache, stiffness or other cold symptoms. Aspirin relieves neuralgia, neuritis, too. Use it freely; it does not hurt the heart. ASPIRIN TRADE -MARK REG. IN CANADA EALV A HEALTH SERVICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION AND LIFE Q/° \ INSURANCE COMPANIES \ / IN CANADA HALITOSIS Advertisers have made the public breath -conscious, By word and by picture, the possessor of an unpleas- ant breath is depicted as one who is cut off from society and shunned as if heor she were a leper. Halitosis is disagreeable, and it may be so offensive as to keep peo- ple at a distance. It is also true that the vicitm is usually unaware of his condition, but as to whether or not there is great reluctance on the part of his family or friends•to inform him of the fact, we do not know. The most common error with re- gard to halitosis is the belief that bad breath comes only from some faulty condition of the mouth, and that, in all cases, it can be overcome by having a clean mouth. The offensive breath may be due to the condition of the mouth.. If the teeth are not thoroughly and reg- ularly cleaned, food particles are left around the teeth; these particles de- cay and give rise to an unpleasant, breath. Dental plates or bridges may not be properly fitted, with the result that they cannot be cleaned with the toothbrush. This causes food to col- lect and the disagreeable odour to arise. The gums may be infected, pus. relay be present, and if so, an un- pleasant odour is given to the breath. Any of the several inflamatory con- ditions which may occur in the soft tissues ofthe mouth may be respons- ible. However, Halitosis may be due 'to conditions outside of the mouth. In- fected head sinuses which drain into the nose may be responsible,., as may also be some chronic disturbance of. the digestive organs, or faulty elim- ination. A clean, sound mouth is desirable, The mouth is the gateway of the body. Clean food should not be al- lowed to be contaminated by dirty teeth or infected gums before it en- ters the stomach. Clean teeth, free from decay, are essential to health. In addition, a clean and healthy mouth is essential to a sweet breath. If the breath is unpleasant, the - mouth is not necessarily at fault. If' it comes from outside the mouth, it cannot be overcome by any amount - of attention that is limited to the mouth. Halitosis is not a disease. It is a symptom of some abnormal condi- tion, and attention must be given to - the cause as that is the only way to - overcome the annoyance.
