THOMAS E: SMALL LICENSED AUCTIONEER 20 Years' Experience in Darn Stock and implements, Moderate Prices, Phone 831, SYNOPSIS Pauline, sentimental, trustful, sin- cere and loving love, becomes +engag- ed and marries Dennis O Ha'ra 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 Dennis 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. Much 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 Yorkfor 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. Ha 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. Both fight against love—but it's overpow: ering. Dennis declares his love and Barbara admits she loves him. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Then he heard Barbara's voice, a little breathless and nervous. "It's Jerry—I made him come in. Give him a drink, will you, Dennis, while I go and make myself look beautiful." Dennis turned quickly... Jerry Bar- net was already in the room, and Bar- bara had escaped. Jerry nodded stiffly. "How do! Didn't expect to find you here," His eyes were more unfriendly than his voice, and . Dennis answered calmly, "We've just been to see my wife off at Paddington. Her mother is ill- she was sent for," "I see," • There was an awkward silence, and Dennis knew that this man must have seen the tears and flushed distress of Barbara's face, "Have a drink?" he asked with an effort. "No, thanks," The silence fell once more and re rnained unbroken till Barbara re- turned. "Richard's himself, again!" she Said ligh"I' tly. ve been unburd- ening my softl in a fiat of tears," she informed Barnet, "Too many late nights and too much to 'drink, so Dennis been telling s has g ii e t ." She lighted a ; cigarette and pushed the g box across to him, "Aren't you go- ing to drink, Jerry?" "No, thanks," She made a little grimace at his moody face. "Well, mix one for me, anyway." she said. Dennis took up his coat. "I'll be Off." He was hating Barnet with all his heart, and yet he knew that for Barabara's sake he must .show noth- ing of what he felt. "Go and see him out, will you, Jerry?" Barbara said coolly. she nodded to Dennis, "Good-bye—ring me up some time:' When `Barnet returned she was sit- ting calmly on a big humpty stool by the fire, smoking and turning the pages of a magazine, "We'll have some tea when Mellish comes in," she said without looking up. "Does your head ache, Jerry, that you won't drink? Mine does,. like the very devil." Barnet made no reply, but he shut the door behind; 'him with a little slam and came forward. "Have you seen this picture of Evelyn?" Barbara asked. "Not too good, I think—look!" Barnet tore the magazine from her hand and flung it across the room. "What's that fellow doing here?" he demanded. 'never come back," Barbara said again. "I've done with you." "No! no!" His distress was piti- able. "You know how much I care for you. Forgive me, Barbara, and I swear it will never happen again." "No." her eyes were hard and relentless, He fell back from her, breathing hard. "Do :you-meanthis?" he asked thickly. "I never meant anything so much in all my life," Barbara answered. "So I'm thrown over, am. 1! After all this time—after all I've done for you. Kicked out like an importunate tramp: Very well! we shall see. I'.11 make you pay for this—you—" For a moment she thought he was going to strick. her; then his arm fellto his side. "I'll make you pay— my God, I'll make you pay to the last farthing!" he shouted, and, was gone. Pauline stayed with her mother for a week. She was not unhappy, but she was restless and preoccupied. "It's as if someone is walking over niy grave," she told her mother once with a little excited laugh. ."Do 'you believe in premonitions. Mumsie? I. never used to, but just lately I've had f "Of course. Dennis' is a darling," said Dennis's wife." the sort of feeling that something is going to happen, something—some- thing I .shan't like. It's not Dennis he's written every other day, and he'squite well." She laughed. "Den- nis writes such funny letters, Mum- sie=you really would think he's shy of me!", Pauline's mother smiled. She could not quite make 'up her mind about her daughters marriage. Paul- ine seemed happy enough. "The first year of marriage is always a little difficult,". hermother said gently, "and I think my little girl is manag- ing very well from what I can hear." She paused, then asked, "And what is Dennis doing in New York with- out you?" "Oh, I think he's quite all right," Pauline said. "Dr. Stornway is up there, you know, and .that's nice fdr Dennis.':And then there is Barbara, of course. 'I think he's seen her once or twice." "Poor Barbara!" . said Pauline's mother. The girl looked up quickly. "Why, do you say that?' she asked. "`Barbara's quite happy—at least I think she is. She's got a nice. pian she goes about with; his name is Jerry Barnet. He adores her, but 1. don't think she cares very much for hint, But there is someone she For a moment Barbara sat ,mo- tionless; then she looked up. "My dear Jerry!" "What's that fellow doing here?" Barnet demanded again. "I've sus- pected him all along. That night in the Theatre—every time he's been in your company—" Barbara rose to her feet. "If your going to be a cad, Jerry, you'd better ' go," she said. "Oh, yes, go! to make room for him, I suppose," he almost shouted. He caught her arm roughly, swing- ing her around to him. "Ha's he been making love to you?" he demanded. "How dare you!" He laughed. "Oh, I dare very well. I know you, Barbara—anything for a new conquest, And you his wife's friend, eh?" Barbara's eyes blazed in her white face. "Let go of my arm," she said in a very still voice. "And when you've done that you can walk out of " my flat and never come back," There was a tragic silince, broken only by Barnet's heavy breathing; then suddenly:his anger fell from him and he began to plead. " I'tn sorry. I was mad. Forgive me. I didn't mean it; I was jealous. You drive me mad, Barbara." "Yott can go out of my flat and loves, She told me so .once. I won- der wio it is," she added almost to herself. "I don't think Barbara is a very £aihtfu! lover," Pauline's _ another said, but this Pauline would not al- low, "She is! I ,understand her. Once she really loves anyone noth- ing would ever change her, Of coarse she doesn't wear her heart op.her sleeve," She said something of the same sort to Peterkin when he arrived to dinner one night, having driven forty miles' through the cold and rain to see her. They had dinner alone, as Pauline's mother was still in bed. "It's nice to see you, Peterkin," Pauline said.. She hoped he thought she looked well and happy. She had put on one of her prettiest frocks in his honour and 'she wore the pearl necklace Dennis had given her for a wedding present. "Still as radiantly happy?" Peter - kin asked. "Of course. Dennis is a' darling," said 'Dennis's wife. Peterkin emptied his wineglass. "Why isn't he here?" he asked bluntly' Pauline flushed. "He would have come—he wanted to come, only I lama; it would be so dull for him with Daddy away. He would have come, only I persuaded him not. to," "I see." Pauline was offended. She thought Peterkin was silly to be so old- fashioned: "Is Mrs. Stark loking after him?" Peterkin said suddenly. "I asked her to," Pauline . said quickly, and then wondered why she had spoken defensively, and then quite suddenly a wave of sheer home- sickness for Dennis swept over her. "A penny for your thoughts," Peterkin said suddenly, and Pauline felt her eyes ridiculously filling with tears as she answered. "Nothing. I was just wondering if Dennis is ,miss- ing me as much as -I miss him." Peterkin winced; he had not yet got used to the fact that Pauline was married, and her love for O'Hara still hurt him. " "Of course he is!" he said loyally. "He'll be jolly glad to have you back" And Pauline brightened instantly and flushed and .dimpled and talked 'eagerly of her own little home. Then she broke offand flushed, and Peter - kin kept his eyes on his plate. Paul- ine hurriedly changed the subject. It came to her mind when . she was undressing that night, and she sat down "on the side of the bed and stared down at the carpet, lost‘ -in thought. Would Dennis be pleased if—if there was to he a baby? She had never heard him say he would like . to have a son, for of course it would be a son—a son with Dennis's eyes, and his way of laughing. Paul- ine's simple mind leaped ahead and was lost in a mist of rosy dreams. Barbara could be a godmother of course, and perhaps dear old Peter - kin would be godfather, . and if it was a boy they would call, it Dennis Peterkin O'Hara. And then she cried a little because the dream was so beautiful and be- cause she felt she did not deserve to be so happy, and then she kissed Dennis's picture, which stood in it's old place beside her bed, and then she knelt, down and said her prayers. Dennis always teased her about her prayers. "Such a •baby," he said, but she had a kind of feeling that all the same Dennis. liked her to pray for him.', And she prayed for, him now in simple faith and love, and she ,prayed. for Barbara, too, little dreaming that at that very moment those two were for her sake fighting 'desperately against their passionate love for each other. STORY THREE etao eta etshrd 'Pauline slipped into bed and fell asleep almost at once, only to waken. about two hours later with a fast beating heart and a feeling of fear. "Dennis!" She . sat up in bed and spoke his name aloud in the silent room, stretching out her arms. For for an instant she was almost sure he Here's Quick Relief Tablets /AY i/% Asp%nn t , x 9 J Illl(l//( A lot of things can cause a headache or other pain, but•, there is one thing that will always give you relief! Just take a tablet or two of Aspirin. Your ;suffering ceases. Relief comes instantly, regardless of what may have been making your head throb with pain. Aspirin is harmless —cannot depress the heart. So ' there's no use waiting for a headache to "wear off." It is useless to endure pain of any kind when you can get Aspirin. It is a blessing to women who suffer regular systemic pain; to men who must work on, in spite of eye -strain, fatigue or neuralgia. ASPIRIN TRADE -MARK REG.

The answer is not as simple as it might appear to be. Most of as have experienced the fail- ure of the motor's engine to run smoothly, and, on such occasions, we have realized how little we know a- bout what makes the engine go, or what causes it to misbehave. The human body works like an en- gine. It is, .however, much more dif- ficult to find out what makes it go, or why it gets out of order. Wecannot take the parts out and examine them, nor can we stop the human machine and start it up again. It is remarkable how well and how efficiently the body machine does its work, how capable it is of quickly meeting sudden extra demands, and how effectively the various organs of the body are designed to do the particular work which they are called upon to. perform. The blood carries oxygen to every one of the 'millions of cells which make up the tissues and organs. In the • normal body, there is never a lack of oxygen, because a large re- serve is available. This is true in spite of the fact that when the body is hard at work, the need for oxygen is, greatly increased. The demand is met by an increase in the rate of breathing and in the amount of blood flowing' throtigh the lungs. In this way, the: additional amount of oxygen required is picked up by the blood from the air in the longs. The red blood cells are the actual carriers of th.e oxygen. When the demand for oxygen is low, a portion of the red cells is withdrawn from the circulation, and these are kept in the spleen ready to come out,at a moment's notice, to meet any demand'` that arises for more oxygen. Blood is sent where it is needed. The heart, by increasing the rate of its beats, increases the . rapidity of flow of the blood. Blood vessels di- late when the need for blood increas- es in . the mucles or in the organs- supplied- by the blood vessels. The dilation of the blood vessels diverts the blood to the parts where it is• needed. After a meal, an increased- supply of blood is given to the digest- ive system through the dilation of the abdominal blood vessels, and at such times, we become drowsy ' because, as a result of sending • additional', blood to the ,abdominal region, the blood supply to the brain is dimish ed. The blood carries not only oxygen,. but food, and, in addition, the power- ful substances secreted by certain,. organs which have much to do in re- gulating the growth and functioning• of the whole body. If man is to keep his body work- ing smoothly, he must' do his part. Reasonable attention given to the human machine is rewarded' by the - increased happiness that comes with, a healthy body. Abuse leads to the' misery resulting from the troubles which come from a 'poorly -working machine.
