Marcia assists Joslin in his plan for college. (Continued From Saturday.) "That's the talk!” said Absalom. "We’ll all go out together. Davy, tell me.” and he turned to him sud denly. “who is it we’re a-fightin* with?” And David told him as well as he might, suiting what he said to the understanding of those who heard. “Give us a day. sergeant, to fix things up at home,” suggested Joslin now. "We’ll not keep you long.” CHAPTER X1H. Tile hours dragged leaden for the women, cooped up, silent, as in the old blockhouse days, but for the men the great adventure of going to war, horn in their ancient highland hlood. spent the time rapidly enough. It cost a certain resolution on the part of David Joslin to call upon the “furrin woman." but now he must say good-bye. Therefore In time he knocked at the door of Granny Wil liams’ log house. Marcia Haddon herself met him, as though she had sent for him. "Come,’’ said she. But she led him not into the house itself. He walked at her side, silent, as she directed her footsteps toward the little steps cut into the foot of the hill. They sat here, both looking out across the valley to the hills beyond. The woman’s gray eyes were wist ful and sad. The eyes of the man, resting everywhere but upon her face, were also sad. lie did not turn to look at her at all—apparently did not note the increasing goodliness of her figure and her rounder contours, the browner coloring of her cheek. She was a very comely woman, Marcia Haddon. young, but wiser than she once had been—more impulsive also, less cold. less reserved. Tt was as i tough she entered a new stage of womanhood, as yet denied her in her chill years of self-repression. Never until now Mad she really krjpwn the awakening of woman. Virginal, warm ing. fluttering, she was not married woman or widow now: she was>a girl, a gill at the brink of life. Oh! how vast and sweet the revealing plan seemed now to her. "Well, you’re going out." said she ar last, the first to break the silence. "Yes. I'm going out.” His voice was low and deep. It seemed to her that she now for the first time real ized its own vibrancy. At last: "What will become of the work here?” she began. “1 can’t tell as to that. Mrs. Had don.” said he. "It must wait." She made no reply, and he went on: "You see, ail my life has been pretty much the same thing. I've always had to look ahead and did not dare look at things lietween. Once this school up here on the hill was all I looked at—and there wasn't anything between. There’s other work afoot that's even bigger, now. Maybe after that I'll be fit for this." "You've done wonderfully well. It’s scarce less than a miracle—liow you’ve got on." “At least I've told you all about myself,” said lie after a time. "I’ve nothing more to say—now or at any other time.” “You need say nothing.” she re joined. "Life goes hard for all of us sometimes ” She was conscious of her banality, but found herself, or so often, dumb In her largest emotions. "It was a hard enough start." he assented. "It's hard enough for all of n« In here. I’m not so old.” "No. You only seem old to me. I suppose that’s because you have had to do so much In so short a time. Rut I’m older, too. It’s a sad coun try—did you ever stop to think how few people smile, down here in these mountains?” , "Yes. I know; and you know, now Well, I suppose you'll go away and forget us. We've been forgotten, more than a hundred years. That's hard—to he forgotten." “Do you think that of me?” she said, still staring straight down the valley. "I hardly know what to think of you," said he, deliberately. "You are not like any woman I ever knew.” He flushed, suddenly remembering he had told her he never had known but three women in his life. "Well, be fair, at least. Re sure you know my point of view. This work ought not to stop.” She was trying to look at him from the corner of her eye. ."The Lord lias built that building up on the hill, Mrs. Haddon," answer »d David Joslin. “I suppose the Lord will continue It or destroy it. Blessed he the name of the Lord.'-’ She half turned her face toward him row as she replied. "I've told you I've been a useless woman all my life. Well, Just the other day I saw a child—a little child, out. In the hills—it lived wild. In a < ave. I held its hand right In mine, this way—don’t you see? And then. 1 thought, there were hundreds of them—hundreds, all through these hills.” She was flushing. ’ Yes," said he; "many hundreds.” "Then I thought of tho money that's mine, that maybe oughtn't ail to lie mine. You see, I've counsel—lawyers that sort of thing—men who would help me in anything I asked. Sup pose we had some more buildings, and plenty of teachers after a time?” He did not make any answer at all, and she was obliged to go on un aided. "In this awful time of the world,, Mr. Joslin," said she. “every one ought to be useful. We’ll need more good citizens in America. All of us women ought to work In some way. The country must go on, until we’ve won. Where could I he more useful than here? Don't you think I could A D? KRTINKMKN f.

And where could we fight better for democ racy? Wasn't that your ambition— wasn't that your dream?” "Yes!” suddenly he exclaimed, hoarsely. "That was my dream! You know how it ended—you know why. 1 killed my own school; you know how." "Yes—you've spoken very freely. It's just as well. These are days when there's no time to be lost. And I'd like you to know, at least how much I've marveled at what you've done.” "Marveled!” said hp. "It's I who have marveled. But what you say— if you could keep the school going— why. that’s a miracle” "Well." said Marcia Haddon quiet ly. "you’ve always spoken of miracles as matter of course.” "Maybe we'd better not talk much more,” said he after a time, long silences seeming natural now. "I told you 1 wasn't through. I've sinned, and I'll repent. I'm ignorant —but I'm going out now to get the rest of my education. If I am spared . sometime , . . I've told you about the other woman tip there." he finished, anguished. "As you know' —she’s dead.” “Is she dead forever. David Joslin?” asked Marcia Haddon quietly. The color in her own cheek was warm. "Yes, forever. And I’ll not speak any ill of her memory." "Nor 1 of the memory of the man that’s dead.” said she slowly. "It's life, I suppose." "Yes, that's life! And I want it— all. every bit of it, all that any man ever coveted or had—all of a man's dues in life. Yes. I want it—all!" He spoke now with u sudden fierce ness, his gray eyes afliuue in a way she had not seen, that indomitable ness of the inner man now showing through as never yet she had seen him, so that she felt a thrill, a shock, us of some vast, measureless dynamo of power suddenly awakening. "All life is the same thing. It's all an edu cation, all a growing—God! Give me my chance to grow! Let me get ready, so I can deserve. I’ve been hungry all my life—hungry for the world—hungry for my education— hungry for all a man's life—love, hap piness. content, power, usefulness. I’m hungry for this war. even, be cause I know' it will teach me some thing or leave me at last at peace. I’ve not known peace. I've lived in torment—I'm in torment now. But I'll come back bigger and better if-1 ever come back at all. Life—why life—" "If I could do something in the meantime—while you were out there —why I'd be the happiest woman in all the world. Yes, I! And I d said good-bye to happiness, the same as you." Her eyes were soft now. ' "If I thought that could be,” ho answered slowly, "I d know the end even of this war—I'd know the end of my own fight—I'd know that jus tice and good do triumph over all ami through all. Oh. what a dream! And for my people—the forgotten, the mocked, the helpless ones. If I—if you and I—” “I'm going now,” he concluded, long later. "These are things in which I can’t give you counsel. You are the one real woman I ever knew in all mv narrow life—the one real woman. 1 reckon I've seen them all now. l wanted to tell you that, before I went away—I had to tell you! If only I had lived so that you wouldn't think so ill of me. Oh, my God! Always I do the evil thing when I would do the right. I'm so Impatient. It's so hard for me to be patient now." He rose and stood facing straight ahead. The twilight now was falling softly upon the-hills. Sounds came from the street below—sounds unwel come. "Good-bye." said he suddenly. ' Til lpve you all life!" "Going?" Her voice seemed not yet to accept it after all. She half raised a hand. The blood of her cheek surged back "Yes—to finish my education!" He stalked away, never looking back. She sat alone now, still gazing out across the hills, at a new antf wider world than any she had ever known. The sound on the street below be came more audible, wafted by a change in the evening air. She knew that there was forming yonder a pro | (esslon of men w ho presently w ould | paFS out around the shoulder of the lilll at the end of the street. And [then at last she heard fully the throb cf the drum, the keening of the fife. The men of the Cumberlands were marching out Into the world. He was at their head—going out for his or deal. going out to grow, to get ready —to deserve, as he had said. What a man he would be—what a man he was! Marcia Haddou suddenly reached out her arms, her gesture following the marching men, as though some thing of her own had gone out with them. She sat. until she knew not whether she heard the throb of a pass ing drum or felt the pulse of a new heart, beating high and strong. Her work lay at hand—out there, on tlie hills where the gaunt buildings grew-. And on ahead—was it life, as sweet as It was earnest and compelling, that rested yonder—on the heights nhead? THE END. Builtin Features (iain Favor in Modern Homes Builtin features have gained great favor in the modern home, there be ing several reasons for this, accord ing to a representative of the Build ers Sideboard company. 115 Fifth street, N. E.. “In the first place.” said he. "the tendency nowadays is for conservation of space, and we all know that built in features eliminate waste space and make double use of space possible. Moreover builtin features, such as sideboards, linen closets and other ‘disappearing equip ment.’ for all conceivable uses, are timcsavers ofl the first rank in the household, and people who build in these days are efficient builders. They build with an eye to the future con venience and comfort in the home.” Bureau Necessary Piece of Furniture in Small Home in these days of small apartments and the tendency of the times for smaller rooms, the dweller suddenly discovers the lack or absence of closet room. And here the handy bureau, be it large or small, stands a welcome piece of furniture. Into it can be put gowns, hat. wraps and shoes when other available space is tacking. And for the woman who has ample bedroom furnishings and finds her self in new quarters where there is closet room to put them, the bureau proves its worth. Besides, a bureau is always an at tractive and useful piece of furniture in any home.

FORD RUNS 57 MILES ON GALLON OF GASOLINE A new automatic Vaporizer and Decarbonizer, which in actual test has increased the power and mileage of Fords from 25 to 50 per cent and at the same time removed every par ticle of carbon from the cylinders is the proud achievement of John A. Stransky, 3798 South Main street, Pukwana. S. D. A remarkable fea ture of this simple and inexpensive device is that its action is governed entirely by the motor. It is slipped between the carburetor and intake manifold and can be installed by anyone in five minutes without drilling or tapping. With it attached Ford cars have made from 10 to 57 miles on one gallon of gasoline. Mr. Stransky wants to place a few of these devices on cars in this terri tory and h^s a very liberal offer to make to anyone who is able to han dle the business which is sure to be created wherever this marvelous little device is demonstrated.

Headache—a touch of indi gestion—an “off-day” every week or so—thousands of people don’t even suspect that anything serious is devel oping. Then comes the day when growing i'^-health and irritability lead them to their doctor’s office. The examination —and the verdict: chronic disease has already fastened upon them. And when they ask the reason — “ Constipation,” says the doctor. “ Day by day it has been distilling poisons into your blood. Your body is never free from them. This is the result.” The real reason why thousands suffer Constipation is becoming more common every year. Our whole way of living is unnatural today. Our work demands less and less physical exertion. And instead of the coarse, raw foods of the forest for which our bodies were built, modern civiliza tion demands a more delicate, concen trated diet, which leaves the muscles of our intestines with no real work to do. Day by day these muscles get softer and flabbier. There is nothing to stim ulate them to a complete thorough removal of the waste which the body produces constantly every day. Conse quently, even though they may act with fair regularity, they are often leaving much of the waste behind, to decay and form phenol—one of the deadliest poisons known. Useless to try to blast a nay through Drugs and cathartics are worse than useless, for their artificial irritation weakens the intestines still more—till at last the muscles refuse to respond at all. 91 hat this does to the muscles of sour arm, fltischmann's Yeast does to the muscles of your intestines— gists them normal, he*ilthv exercise Theonly way rocure constipation permanently is by exercising the in testinal musclesas Nature intended. That is why physicians and hospitals arc prescribing Fleischmann's Yeast today - not as a medicine but as a fresh corrective food which gives the intes tinal muscles regular, natural exercise. Every cake of Fleischmann’s Yeast consists of millions of tiny living Day by day Fleischmann's Yeast builds up tlic flabby muscles of the intestines exactly as regular exercise builds up the muscles of your arm plants, which mix with the waste prod* ucts in the colon, softening them and increasing the bulk of the waste. This greater bulk gently encourages the muscles to act, and at the same time strengthens them by offering just the resistance they need. Your own physician will heartily endorse this principle of regularly exercising the intes tinal muscles as the only way to relieve con stipation and all its evils. Be sure you get Fleischmann's Yeast—yeast in its natural fresh form. Recent experiments have shown that yeast corrects constipation only when its cells are alive and active—and that it loses its power when these cells are •'killed” and dnsd. Fleischmann's Yeast is in no sense a purga tive and docs not produce immediate violent action. It is a nourishing food—not digestion disturbing medicine—and like any other food, it must be eaten regularly to secure results. Eat at least 2 or 3 cakes a day—plain or dissolved in water, milk or fruit juices—prefer ably half an hour before a meal, or the last thing at night. If you eat it plain, follow with a glass of water. Get several cakes at a time— they will keep in a cool, dry place for several days. Be sure you get Fleischmann's Yeast. All grocers have it.
