FRENCH WOMAN TELLS HOW TO BET THIN Without Diets, Absurd Creams, Exercises er Reducing Girdles. 1 reduced my own weight 50 pounds in less than 5 weeks, and at the same fime marvelously improved my general health and appearance with anew French discovery called SAN-GKI-NA To-dfey I look, act and teel tar younger than ray real age. From the results in my own case and those of my tnends, 1 am absolutely convinced that any man or woman burdened with rolls ot ugly, injurious, unwholesome tat, can take it oft easily, quickly and safely with SAN-GRI-NA. Every science discovers something new. SAN- . GRI-NA is one of the latest French discoveries for the reduction of excess fat. It does away with weakening diets—tiresome exercises—torturing garments and absurd and expensive so-cjlled reducing creams. It is used extensively in Pans, where women ot every age pride themselves on keeping their figures slender and graceful, and where the men detest a heavy waistline or double chin. No matter how tat you are, or what you have done in the past to reduce, you must remember that SAN-GRI-NA has never been offered betore to the American public— IT IS GUARANTEED ABSOLUTELY HARMLESS—does not contain any dangerous drugs, and cannot possibly affect your stomach or your health. By simply taking two small tablets before each meal I lost 50 pounds in two months, and I haven’t regained a pound since. I eat all I want and enjoy the best of health. Yi can do the same. To-day go to any good drug store, ask for a package of SAN-GRI-NA. Do not accept anything else, as it is the only thing I ever found to reduce after I had tried hundreds of different ways and remedies, SAN-GRI-NA can be had at Haas Drug Cos.

During Ishmin s absence for supplies. Pe*or is hurt. Dorothy finds an attachment growing for Peter. Ishmin returns, urging immediate marriage. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY *r~iD be willing to wait, for your T I sake, Dorothy—except for I * I the fact we'd be running the risk of never having each other at all. No one knows what lies on the other side of death. The only happiness we can be sure of is that which we take now. Dorothy, I want you to marry me—tonight.” His voice trembled with earnestness. He had put his case very well. Even in the beginning Dorothy was not a conventional type, and lately, on this rugged shore, she had come face to face with realities Many things which she had regarded as essentials had been shown as froth, and she knew that vows plighted under this white sky could be just as holy as those taken before the altar in her own church. The marriage would be legal; nothing else really mattered. The ceremony was at most hut a symbol; and where and by whom it was performed she found she absolutely did not care. And all the time he had pleaded with her she has been biased in his behalf. He had shown her a swift way out from her own doubts and fears. Once in his arms, bound to him by vows, she could shut away the misgivings that haunted her. She was pale, too, now from the violence of her mingled emotions; but already he could see the neqjdng glory of his victory. He was winning; he read the truth in the clear, welling light in her eyes, in

We'll make it as respectable as we can—preserve at least some of the conventionalities. We’ll be glad later that we did.” "THERE'S GOING TO BE A WEDDING,” IVAN ANNOUNCED. He sought her lips, already with an air of unquestioned ownership. His eyes were no longer vivid - they were strange and dark and inscrutable, and his voice was moving and deep. “Then you are mine—only mine. I've won yotr at last. Dorothy —it is part of the knowledge of our Eastern women that the greatest happiness they ever know is in yielding utterly to the man they love. Tell me—aren’t you catching an echo, of that happiness now?” She smiled soberly—a wan, mirth*, less smile that was not without tenderness. “At least —I’m glad to know what I am going to do,she told him \cting on hilarious impulse
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
; Ivan seized her arm and walked | with her to the mouth of Pete's dugI out. The head guide, still not wholly lecuperatei from the shock cf yes- ; today's .accident, got slowly to his feet. “I want you to supervise the cooking of an extra special meal tonight Pete,” he said. "The best of all the perishable things we can't take with us, and some of the others besides, if you need them. There is going to be a celebration tonight.” Pete looked from one to the other: | and there was no expression that man could lead on his homely, jbronztd face. ‘‘AV'hat—what is goj ing to happen?” he asked. He spoke rather softly, without : 'nnphasis, yet the sound moved i Dorothy more than great music. She was instantly estranged, mystified; and no reality was left in the smoking, 3ulien foe, the white sky and the moaning cea. Pete seemed to be struggling for breath. “There's going to be a wedding,” Ivan announced easily. ‘‘Mrs. New hall and I have just come to tha* decision*” Watching closely in spite of her self. Dorothy thought that the man recoiled, almost imperceptibly, and for one hushed instant his face was darkened by a queer, unearthly shadow such as she had never seen before. She had the weird feeling that some way that shadow ins like death—that it spread across the faces of men as their souls passed frem the clay. CHAPTER XVII The Wedding All the summer flowers were faded, but Ivfctn’s ingenuity devised a bridal bouquet of scarlet autumn ..leaves in which strands of green moss were intertwined that was in harmony with their surroundings. With branches of alder, rich with a glory of golden leaves, he decorated the camp, covering up the unsightly piles of supplies, framing the door of the dugout and festooning the great rock before which he his bride would stand, facing the cross. Neither Pete nor Dorothy assisted greatly in these preparations, Pete because of his weakness from yesterday’s accident, Dorothy simply because she could not rouse the impulse to make this marriage a holiday occasion. Ivan shaved, bathed and dressed with care, and the two packers set out to servy such a wedding feast as had not been tasted since the American occupation. White breasts of ptamigan, tender chops of caribou veal, baked clams and baked salmon would comprise the body of the meal; then there would be reflector

I biscuits served with canned honey land raisin’cake. Fortune Joe eonj as a surprise, a salad made |of the white, crablike flesh of the devil-fish, i.nd Pavlof prepared a Rusj sian dish of doubtful content. In these hoi rs Dorothy lay in troubled sleep in har tent, and Pete, in his dugout, sat gazing darkly out to sea. Dorothy had been true to her j promise to herself, and she had shut all misgivings out of her mi m\ She ! had decided upon her course, and she knew that only doubt and despair would follow any attempt to consider the matter further. Meanwhile Pete had searched Heaven and earth for strength to stand up under | the bitterness of this hour. It was a bitter day, as if in tragic j prophecy. The wind's blast rfas like a breath of death; it shrilled over | the hills and fretted the spa in-eddv-ing streaks and dark, uneasy billows, and it blew the fine, stinging sand in invisible clouds. The fogs lifted and kAvered, ghostly and wan; and any instant might bring the ' nelting sleet. They intended to hold •te wedding feast in the open before the fireside, but this was given over as the lowering dusk increased the intensitv of the cold. Pavlof served his fine meal with a flourish in Dorothy's tent: he and Fortune Joe ate in the dugout as ever. Pete himself complained (hat he was still ill from his accident, and the loaded pans passed him by. To Dorothy it was impossible to believe that the appointed hour was almost at hand. The bleak day was dying; she had promised to go to Ivan in the dusk. Already the outline of the hills had softened, the alder thickets were becoming a gray blur in the lowering gloom, the myriad tones and hues of the sea were darkened and subdued. Only the white cross that marked the grave was still plain and bright. The twilight grew upon her like a sorrow. Ivan smiled at her. ‘‘ls it time?” he asked. ‘‘Any time now,” she told him simply. He walked over to the dugout and summoned Pete pnd the two natives. It was all very expeditious and simple. He placed Pavlof, his Russian pocket Bible that he could not read in his hand,- directly in front of the white cross of the grave, just above where the highest waves rolled on the shore. The other two men, acting as witnesses, stood at one side. Then Ivan joined Dorothy at the door of the tent. “I’m going to play our own wedding music,” he told her softly. “You’ll enjojl the mejnory of it. What would you like?”

‘‘Something not too profound. 'Oh, Promise Me,’ if you like.” This did not represent the kind of j music that Ivan personally preferred, | and he secretly scorned this particu- ! lar selection because of the many rimes he had heard it badly rendered; | yet because Dorothy had asked for j it, he would give it all he had. He ! took 4?is violin from its case; then, ; standing in the twilight, the glow of | the fire on his twinkling white hands | and his rapt, almost beautiful face, he began to play. ; The sweetness of that old sond • brought tears at once to her eyes, j but she did not let the melody trans- : port her out of the grim, living present. She did nto let her thoughts and dreams soar with her again, only to shatter her to earth. She was true to her promise to herself. It was a strange, weird picture; the fire that glowed and leaped in the j dusk, the restless sea, the silent, watching witnesses standing beside the white cross that marked the grave. The song died away and the brisk wind scattered the last, fine ! golden threads of melody; and thefl. urged by some impulse of his artist’s soul, Ivan began to play agairft He had played “Oh, Promise Me” solely for Dorothy, but now he was playing for himself, and partly perhaps for the man of his own blood who waited with open Bible at the edge of the sea. Something in the scene and the wind’s wail had in-

| spired him, and he chose a selection ' from the Peer Gynt suite, by Grieg. llt was a wild, haunting thing, and jin it he put his own passion, tha mood of his own heart. It was not a wise choice. If ha cared for Dorothy’s peace of mind, j The song moved her and bewitched her, but also it frightened her bei yond any power of hers to understand. That wild music became, through the magic of his geenius, some way part of the night, the very voice of this wild, eerie savage land into which he was cast. The wind beat at her face, chilling and appalling her, and its threat was that of great, white winter that was eveW now closing dow'n upon her. Not wonder Ivan made response to this land so far west that it was almost east. He was of it, and it of him, and its mood was echoed in his heart.
