One day while in the park with Fran's two children, Ncra mcets David Lindsay, Fran’s estranged husband. Centrite, he is alarmed to learn of his wife’s illness and in- quires her address =0 that he can help her. Nora asks if he intcnds taking the children away. Chapter 30 IS NORA BLIND In the look of pain that Nora saw in David's face as he heard her question, Nora read the answer even before he spoke. “Take the children away? You don’t think I'm a devil, do you?” “I'm sorry,” Nora said, putting her hand on his arm for a' mo- ment; “it's because I know how Fran adores them.” His face softened. The children gate. cold and his father stoopéd and walked soberly along. He smiled down and put Dickic on his feet on the sidewalk before the red brick house. She told him where Fran was as he stood there. He held out his hand to Nora. She liked this powerful plain-looking man. “When will you go?” “I'll take the first train.” “What a funny man,” Alice said confidingly as they saw him disap- pearing down the street. “His face was all prickly and a tear was frozen on his cheek.” Nora found Fergus in his office and he looked up as she closed the door and leaned against it. “Fergus, he's come back!” “Jon?” he asked. Nora began to laugh with a harsh cheked laughter that sounded like {a sob. Not Jon, Fergus. Fran's hus- band has come back.” His hands were on her arms and he looked down in her face. “But she doesn't love him, Fer- and she'll never take him “What do you mean?” NEW KAYSER HOSIERY In Service and Chiffon Weights All new Summer Shades $1.00 were waiting for them at the park | Dickie was crying with the| I know how Fran feels for you—' He turned away and she saw him stand a moment ,still, turned back quickly. “Nora, why do you say this?” “Because I know. Because Fran told me,” Nora breathed. “Nora, you're not just talking?” Impatiently she cried, “Do you think I could live in this house all these months and not know how you felt, how Fran felt? Do you think I am blind? He ran his hand over his dark head and his faceé looked strange and angry. “Yes, sometimes I think you are blind,” he said as he turned abruptly away. That night as they sat around the lamp they talked over David Lindsay's return. “Fran will never take him back,” Hallie offered. Aunt Em looked at her, smiled bent her head over her sewing. “Scometimes it’s the people who | | make us suffer . . .” she suggested | “But, Aunt Em” Nora began| vehemently. Then she stopped, re- | membering Jon. TFor hours she| cculd forget him. Then at some | word, he would come rushing back | able ache, the futility of going on.| Oh, it was true that the people who made you suffer were the ones you could not forget! December blew in with snow. The windows of the houses on Dove | Street wore white eyebrows and | Nora, hurrying off to work in the mornings, found the whole city glistening and fresh, the sunshine shimmering on white trees. It was dark when she left the office at five and she shivered in her thin coat. She turned up from | Chickering Street and mounted the | i hill. She heard a voice at her el- bow. “Nora, won't you speak to me?” Nora turned to see Jon. Such vio- lent feeling took possession of h that she could only stand there| looking back at him. He held ou! | his hand. But Nora sank hers even deeper in her pockets. The blood was rushing up over her cheeks. “Didn't you see me waiting for you? T've had to run after you for a block.” “No, I didn't see you.” She was trying to créwd down her- violent delight in his pres- ence. A “I thought perhaps you hated me and wouldn’t speak to me.” | He had put his hand under her arm, but she tried to draw away. She could not have him know that she was trembling. | He had not lost his fascination for her, but they said nothing more until they had come to the top of the hill. “I had to see you,” he said at | last. It seemed to her that her senses that had been half dulled through these last weeks were suddenly |awake. She was struck by a magic |of the evening. The snow had laid the old city under an enchantment. In the sky she saw the frosty stars. Beauty had returned to the earth. “Nora, I know now that I was wrong. You never understood what your father meant to do.” “It's a little late now, isn't it; to tell me that?” “Don't sound so bitter.” “I am bitter.” “Then you love me still” Jon cried. She gave no sign. on. “If that's all you've come to tell me, I think you'd better go,” Nora They walked “I mean, don’t make me say it— and thenhe | | | | | You love me still. |it.” |be done—about the pictures.’ “What is she going to do?” “I don’t know. I thought if you would go to see her—Damon is not without pity. But she feels Nicho- | |las must have justice.” “And you, Jon?” “I think your father’s suffered | enough.” | They had come to the corner of Dove Street. He took her hand and drew her close to him, xegaldlcss‘ of anyone who might them. { His face was so wild Lhat Nora | shivered. | “What have we got to do with it all?

As for Jon and his threat, sie could not forget it that evening UNUSUAL GOODNESS OF FAMOUS COFFEE INTRIGUES EXPERTS | Find That Delicious Flavor is | the Result of Patented Roasting Process ! Probably no coffee sold todayy has enjoyed the success of Hills | Bros. Coffee. Everywhere it has been introduced it has become a| leader. This popularity lies in the fact that Hills Bros. Coffee has a deli- | cious, uniform flavor such as no| other coffee has. While the rare | blend is partly responsible for this, | the patented process, by which it is roasted, is one factor that has made this matchless, uniform fla- | vor possible in every pound. | Instead of roasting in bulk, Hills Bros. roast only a few pounds at a time. By this process—the de- | gree of roast, the continuous flow | of coffee through the roasters, never ! vary. Hence the name of this proc- | ass— Controlled Roasting. Grocers everywhere sell Hills Bros. Coffee. It is always fresh because it is packed in vacuum cans from which air, which de- stroys the flavor of coffee, is taken | out and kept out. Ordinary cans, | even if air-tight, do not keep coffee fresh. Ask for Hills Bros. Coffee by name and look for the Arab— the trade-mark—on the can. Hills Bros.
