Marion received me joyously, and I tried to t'orgct in the warm, whimsical welcome of my friends small daughter the menace to my happiness which Lillian and my father were discussing clown stairs. Hut evidently I failed, for after the child had given me my tea she came ver to me, and with an accent and namier that reminded mc forcibly of her mother, said softly: "I'm airaid your head hurts, Auntie Madge. Wouldn't you like to lie down and have me bathe and rub it? I do mother's often. She says I'm better than a mas bother! I never can pronounce that word. But anyway, it means a woman that rubs and pounds you when you ache." "A masseuse?" I suggested, smil ing involuntarily at the child's pretty petulance. "That's it!" she said with a ludi crously relieved air. "Don't you want to see what a good one I am?" "I think I do, Marion." I smiled at her with real gratitude and relief, for I knew instinctively that Lil iian's daughter couldn't be awkward she is too like her mother. And the prospect of the ministrations with its necessary accompaniment of silence was undeniably attractive. Tranquility Restored. I wasn't disappointed. The little girl I thought as I watched her how pathetically soon she would be a hip girl, a young woman, leaving childish joys and irresponsibility be hind, and facing, in her turn, the stern realities of life arranged the pillows upon the wonderfully com fortable couch where I had often rested before. And when, with pretty fussing, she had established me on it. she brought towels and a basin of cool water and bathed and rubbed my head until by the time my father and Lillian came up from the living room my nerves were tranquilized to a degree I had not dreamed pos sible. The faces of both were non-committal, and they looked sharply at Marion and me as they entered. I realized two things that neither in tended to tell me the real truth con cerning Grace Draper's movements, and that both were worried over my possible rcstiveness under such a decision. Put little Marion's ministrations had given me more than rest for my nerves. They had enabled me quiet ly to reflect upon the Mtuation which confronted me, to realize, as T had not done before, how powerless I would be against Grace Draper's Sentenced to Spend Their Lives in Council Bluffs Sentenced to Council Bluffs for the rest of their lives was the pen alty given to J.

Surely, I told myself scathingly, the least I could do in return for such royal protection was to sub mit uncmestioningly to any course of conduct they thought best, and to keep from expressing by so much as the quiver of an eyelash any curiosity concerning their mode of procedure, or even of the activities of the girl against whom they were guarding me. I put my hand upon the childish ones smoothing my hair, drew them down and myself up to a sitting posture. "I didn't know you provided pro fessional massages with your tea, Lillian," I said with an assumption of saucy lightness. "I am very grateful to you indeed for banish ing me up here. Marion has been the most wonderful little nurse in the world. My headache is gone, my nerves are tranquil, and I feel generally at peace withhe world. Please do it again." I looked steadily, meaningly, at her as I uttered the last sentence, and knew by the answering flash in her eyes that she had comprehend ed my meaning and was immeasur ably relieved and gladdened by my attitude. But hej- verbal answer character istically ignored anything beneath the surface of my little speech. "Don't worry. I shall whenever I don't want you around," she re torted. "And now, of course, you're going to stay for dinner with me." I looked at my wrist watch. ''This is once when I am going to refuse you. Lillian," I said quietly. "Father and I have an engagement this evening which I was afraid we would have to postpone, but if we call a taxi directly we shall have time to snatch a bite at the station and have ample time to keep it." "You could snatch a bite here," Lillian began with indignant hos pitality, but I interrupted her ruth lessly. "And make an enemy of Betty for life!" I retorted. "You know her opinion of senile who hurry through her dinners. No, my dear, I must have my way in this." She looked at me keenly, then turned toward the telephone. "Needs must, I suppose." she quoted over her shoulder petulantly. But my father's eves were shining. (Continued Tomorrow.) Mother Becomes Very HI Following Son's Departure Eldon E.

(Copyright, by ths Whsslsr Syndicate. Inc.) All magnets have two "poles" the positive, or blue, pole and the negative, or red, pole. The red pole of one magnet will at tract the blue pole of another and vice versa. So it follows that one red pole will repel the other. The earth or globe being a natural magnet also has its two poles the North Pole being the positive or blue and the South Pole the negative or red. A compass-needle is nothing but a hit of magnetized steel, of which the red pole is constantly seeking the blue pole of the earth. The end of the compass-needle which points northward is sometimes erroneously referred to as the "north" end or pole, while it is in reality the south end or red pole which is attracted to the blue pole of the earth. It should he remembered, how ever, that this pole of the magnet does not point due north because it is attracted, not by the North Pole of the earth, hut by the "Magnetic Pole" a point located about 70 degrees north latitude; and 97 degrees west longitude. The difference between the true north and south and the direction in which a compass-needle points is known as the "variation''- of compass and allowance must be made for this in order to follow a correct course.

You should credit me with that much consideration anyway. If it's a rainy day I'll probably take your umbrella, too, to keep my new hat dry. I take better care of that hat than you did.

Owing to the recent demise of our beloved President, Mr. Joseph Hayden, we feci that it is due to our many friends and customers that we make some definite state ment of the future policy of Hayden 's. Hayden 's has been brought, during thirty-three years, to its present enviable position in the eyes of the public, through the conscientious, untiring efforts of men whom we admire, reverence, if you will as peerless mer chantskings among men. Our late lamented President, Joseph Hayden, was unquestionably an exceptional man among men, dearly loved By his associates and employes, implicitly trusted by all, his keen business judgment and unswerving integrity acknowledged and admired through out the business world, and the policies which he so painstakingly and accurately worked out, tested and per fected, during the past many years, will unquestionably and unalterably be adhered to by the present management. Hayden 's will be continued as Hayden's under the present management, with an assurance to every customer of the same courteous, fair treatment the same strict ad herence to the principles of square dealing, offering and delivering only dependable merchandise, at the lowest possible margin of profit. The same absolute guarantee to every purchaser, of satisfaction, or money back in fact, the same high principles of merchandising which have made "Try Hayden's First" the watchword of thousands upon thousands of careful, thrifty buyers throughout Nebraska and adjoining states. Below I am publishing -Mr. Joseph Hayden's last letter to the public, which clearly states his convictions along certain lines. Thanking all for the unswerving confidence in Hay. den's, which continued and unprecedented increases in selling signify, we are Respectfully, HAYDEN BROTHERS. Per Joseph Hayden's Last Letter, Prepared for Sunday, May 29th, 1920. How Hayden's Low Cash Prices Stood the Test A Business Talk by J. Hayden Omaha, Neb., May 29th, 1920. It is of the highest significance that during the past two weeks a period marked by special offerings on the part of credit houses Hayden's did by far THE LARGEST VOLUME OF BUSINESS IT HAS EVER DONE FOR THE CORRESPONDING PERIOD. Hayden's offered NO MORE REDUCTIONS THAN THOSE IT HABITUALLY GIVES by reason of the saving possible under Hayden's cash plan. But the cash plan does the business for merchant and cus tomer alike. Men and women compared the goods and special prices of fered by credit houses with the goods and cash plan prices offered by Hayden's. Then they bought at Hayden's. The big increase in Hayden's volume of business during the past two weeks shows that the consistently low prices possible under the cash plan the lowest possible for the quality of goods will stand any test: These prices stand the test for the reason that they are fixed in accordance with a basic rule and are, therefore, economically sound. Hayden's owns its own property and has no mortgages upon that property. There are, therefore, no fancy rents to pay and no burdensome real estate interest that must be passed on to the customer. Hayden's overhead costs are as low as good store-keeping will permit. Hayden's is not a borrower, thus it saves for its customers enormous interest charges. Hayden's buys for cash and in large volume. Thus it gives to its customers benefits of big saving on that line. Hayden's sells for cash, thus saving for its customers the large amount required for the maintenance of a credit depart ment. As a result of this systematic saving, Hayden's offers prices that build a vast and steady volume of business, which permits of ever continuing low prices. Hayden's modest cash margin of profit passes these low prices directly to its customers. That is why Hayden's low cash prices stand the test of the most famous discount ever offered. That is why Hayden's does not hesitate to invite careful com parison of the goods and prices offered at its counters with those offered at any credit house in the country. It is Hayden's cash plan that SYSTEMATICALLY AND CONTINUALLY PROVIDES LOVr TRICES. If you do not know this to be true, investigate and be convinced. Tomorrow I will tell you something of our sales during the past two weeks, showing you in detail how Hayden's cash plan i .iiii7iiiTMiHiififcaiM!TiiiiiiiSMSii"Biir iniiiiii have Riven up the nap should re sume it. taking a "siesta" in the eaily afternoon.
