Max, cigaret in hand, was coming across, under the ailan- thus treo. He hesitated on the pave- ment, his eyqs searching the shad owy baicony. “Bldney?” “Here! Right back here!" ‘There was vibrant gladness in her tone. He cane slowly toward them. “My brother ts not at home, so I came over. How select you are, with your balcony!” “Can you see the step?” “Coming, with bells on.” K. had risen and pushed back his chair. His mind was workin, quickly, Here in the darkness he could hold the situation for a mo- ment. If he could get Sidney into the house, the rest would not mat- ter.

Great!” he replied. “The mind's a curious thing, isn't it. In the in stant since Miss Page went thru that window I've been to Berlin and back! Will youyhave a cigaret?” “Thanks; /I have my pipe here.”* K. struck a cnatch with his steady hands, Now that the thing had come, he was glad to face it. In the flare, his quiet profile glowed against the night. Then he flung the match over the rail. “Perhaps my voice took you back HAVE COLOR IN CHEEKS —Take edie ibis on, VE Gor TO ComB MY a-o0P $ wine SAID AN to Berlin.” Max stared; then he rose. ‘Black- news had descended on them again, jexcept for the duli glow of K.'s-old} pipe. | "For God's sake! “Sh!

That's the chance he and you took, What hap pened to me was—different.” Pipe in hand, he stood staring out at the ailanthus tree with ite crown of stars. Instead of the Street with ft» quiet houses, he saw the men he had known and worked with and taught, his friends who spoke his language, who had loved him, many of them, gathered about a bronze tablet set in a wall of the old college; he saw their earnest fades and grave eyes. He heard— He heard ney’s dress he came into the lit tle room behind them. CHAPTER XIII A few days after Wilson's recog- nition of K., two most exciting things happened to Sidney. One was that Christine asked her to be maid of honor at her wedding. The other was more wonderful. She was accepted, and given her cap. Because she could not get home that night, and because the little house had no telephone, she wrote the news to her mother and sent a note to Le Moyne “Dear K.—I am accepted, and it is on my head at this minute. I am conscious of it as if It were a halo, and as if I had done something to deserve it, instead of just hoping that some day I shall. I am writing this on the bureau, so that when I lift my eyes I may see it. I am afraid just now I am thinking more of the cap than of what it means, It is be coming! “Very soon I shall slip down and show it to the ward. I have prom ised. I shall go to the door when the night nurse is busy somewhere, and turn all around and let them see it, without saying a word. They love little excitement like that You have been very good to me, dear K, It is you who have made possible this happiness of mine to- night. I am promising myself to be very good, and not so vain, and to love my enemles—altho I have none now.

TODD GAINS TWENTY POUNDS TAKING TANLAC Seattle Man Says He Is Praising It to Everybody He Meets “I weigh just twenty pounds more than I did the day I commenced taking Tanlac, and all the troublea that have been pulling me down for over three years have been com- pletely overcome,” said John Todd, a well known boiler maker, who is employed at the Oregon Boiler Works, and lives at 2918 First ave., Seattle, the other day, “A man must be strong and healthy to be a boiler maker,” con- tinued Mr. Todd, “and unless he is in first class condition, he won't be able to stay on the job very long. When I commenced taking Tanlac, I had about reached the point where I elther had to get some relief from my suffering, or give up my work.
