ISABEL Contlaned From Our Last Issuc They came at last upoy n tiny clearing, and, with a warning touch upon her companion's arm; I flashed the torch on a small opening betore them, 1t was, indeed, the cave of wiich she had told him, been rolled away. )rom the en- trance, with upturned face, protrud- ed the head of a man, asleep. It rest- ed upon«<one of the stolen launch cushions, and the rug from the same source enwrapped his shoulders, opening across the breast to disclose Frank's coat. [Fay bent nearer ' and scrutinized the sleeping man, It was undoubted- ly the same face as that which had looked in on her through the library window—the same white, drawn face, pinched now with privation and ex- posure, but, with those wild, staring eyes closed, the llkeness to some one whom ‘she had known grew stronger and stronger. Then she drew back with a little start. Why, with that horrible, gaunt look gone it would be like—like— was her mind playing her false! Had she gone mad? It could not be— and yet She bent forward with her agonized eyes searching the uncon- scious face, and then the torch drop- ped rattling upon the stones and Cap- tain Wafren steadied himself upon his crutches and placed a firm hand over her lips to stifie the scream which rose to them as he drew her slight- ly away. “You saw?” from her lips, “Yes!" He groaned. *“I saw, and I know that we both must be going crazy! Didn't I sec him die, out there in No Man's Land?” % “No!"” she cried softly. “I have known it, I have felt his nearness to me ever since I came home. That man is my brother!” . CHAPTER XI. “1 tell you, I saw him die!” tain Warren groaned once more. Then he spoke with a change of tone. “Whoever he may be, we must get him out of this and at once! No, /don't ‘return to him! If it should prove to be Will, he must be suffering from some form of amnesia, and if ' you awaken him suddenly the shock may kill him!"” “What do you wish me to do, Cap- tain Warren?' “Take the pocket torch and return to the edge of the woods, where it borders the lawns of your place, and wait. When we come out look at me, and i(:1 nod it will mean that the miracle is true, and a frightful mis- take was made somewhere; Then speak to him quietly, as though you had seen him only an hour ‘before and had come out to meet him. Jg- nore me. I will follow you t the house and telephone for ?)octor Green. But only if I nod; if T do not run into the house and leave us alone.” “Do you think you can him?" she asked softly. “I think so. 1 am going to try an experiment which 1 have seen prove successful before. Now go and pray that what we hope for may be true.” Without a word Fay took the torch and flew down the trail as though she dared not glance backward lest her strength fail her, and the captain bent over and felt for the shoulder of the unconscious man, shaking him roughly. y 3 “Come on, Will! We're over!” ' Automaticaily the man spring to his feet. “Rotten dug-out, that! known worse; eh, Warrie 2" “Come on, Will.” The captain’s heart leaped and his voice was none too steady. *“The rest have gone on and we must follow."” “Who the hell took my my head feels queer!" “Never bind your rifle; pienty out there.

I thought I was in France! Fay—TFay, you're real aren't you? Where's Warrie? I was wih him just now. What does it all mean?" “You've had a dream, Wilbur; that's all’ She laughed, but there was a catch in her voice, “Why is the house so dark? Where is Laurel?" Her heart contracted at the men- tion of that name, but she forced a note of impatience in her tone. “Captain Warren is in the library, talking to Aunt Clara, and L—Laurel is regting. 1or goodness' sake don'f t “COME* GOING OVER THE TOP!" WE'RE stop out here on lawn and talk all night She led him to the side into the library. & Captain Warren wa ated at the desk, apparently writing, with his crutches carefully concealed, and Mrs. Tudor held a book which shook her hands, but she glanced us ca ualy as they entered and remarkedi RBe sure you get out of those wi things at once, Wilbur." Her eyes fell again to her beok, and I"ay guided her brother up to his room. Oft upon the porch, whither he had followed them since, all unno- ticed, he had witnessed the scene at the case, Sergeant Barry caught the captain's eye and beckoned. When | the latter joined him he said: | “Go up to him. Explain that you arrived this evening during his walk, | and act as if he knew all about your having been wounded. Talk so that he has no time to think, and get him to bed as quickly as you can. You've sent for the doctor, of course?" “How the devil do you know all this, sergeant?” Captain Warren gazed at the detectlve in genuine astonishment. “Oh, 1T was there all the time in case you needed a hand. 1 saw the look upon your face when you heard Frank's description of . the half- burned top of a pajama coat which could only have come from an army officers’ hospital, and, although 1 don't think you guessed the truth, I imeant to circle ‘baclk and keep you in sight.

Weo are advised to dress warmly; Kkeep the feet dry; avold exposure; eat less meat, but drink plenty of good water, Rheumatism is a direct result of eating too much meat and other ri¢h foods that produce uric acids which is absorbed into the blood. 1t is the funclion of the kidneys to filter thos acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skins are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp,and chilly cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to elimihate the uric acid which kceps accumulating and circulating |!|rnu;¥\“fl|r‘ system, event- ually settling in Joints and mus- cles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism.

Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and is used with excellegt results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. —————— e I must ask you to tell me the name of that man.” “Really, sergeant?" brows. “Since 1 very ‘definitely refused the gentleman I should not care to mention his name.
