A STORY YOU CAN BEGIN AT ANY 1IME Her Side---and His How Cora and Davlid Temple Solved Their By ZOE BECKLEY “Shall I Teli?” It is an odd thing how a person can certain problems and conditions that seem others and give them trouble. But once some one tells you of that particular problem or condition, you imme- diately stumble over a similar one. The thing you never thought of before springs up on every hand. You're always running across it. So it was with Janet Stedman. After poor little Millie ened her regarding the ‘pesterings”’ of the gentleman na whom Millle insisted on terming “skunk. Janet seemed encountering human animals of disagreeable type. eyes were opened, she saw them the streets and in them in offices. And at last, as if fate took an impish delight in forcing that which she had always doubted, prablem.

It seemed in the dimness that he was smiling. “What's wrong—anything the matter?” asked Janet, puzzled. It was not like Nicoll Roy to stop. He usually wouldn't even go slowly. “Nope,” he answered cheerfully. “I just Got a fit of blues tonight, I guess.

She felt her wrists suddenly caught in an unshakable grip, and herself helplessly against her companion. In another instant she was released, She sat back, too amazed to articulate a sound.

There 1is no surer index to personality than the things men or women can afford, and the things they never have the money for. no money for books or magazines. T am thinking of a home of this sort. I never visit it without recalling the jest, “What shall 1 give Mabel for Christmas?” “Why don’t you give her a book?” ‘“Oh, no, she's got a book!

She Can’t Afford to Give Fair Chance. Some people can afford jewelry. know a woman who is bringing her little boy in a tiny stories up. Its one out on an air-shaft. She says she cannot afford to move to a larger apartment in a more open neighbor- hood. Yet she can afford two or three very handsome diamond rings. Some people can afford to have money in the bank, and others can encompass such luxuries as automo- biles and music machines, but can't afford to have the luxury of this bar- rier between financial misfortune or sickness, and want. Isn't it funny But it's true. Some People Can Always Afford Clothes. There are some people who can a ways afford clothes. You ask them to contribute to some charity and they tell you how poor they are, or per haps try to prove that the charity is not a worthy one. You speak of travel, and they say wistfully that they would so love to take some of those interesting trips, but they can- not afford it. You ask if they have read interesting articles in some of the worthwhile magazines. o0, we don’t take any of them,” they say. And yet these same people always have plenty of money for up-to-date clothes. They trade at the cheapest butcher in town, but they would scorn to buy their clothes at any but the most expensive shops. And they manage, by hook or crook, to have smart, new outfits each season. They Have No Money for Books Or Magazines. Other people can afford good fur- niture, nicc rugs, expensive bric-a- brac, cut glass, embroidered linen and that sort of thing, but they have Her Child a I up hedroom looks Flashing Beaches, Waving Palms Jimate soft as June; cities and harbors vivid with the i e e e Worid hfe.

There is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness, and that fs by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is cajged by an in- flamed conditior of the mucous lining of the Rustachian Tube. When this tubs is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness {s the result. Unless the fnflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of the mucous sur- faces. Hall's Catarrh Cure acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the sys- tem.
