/ \ A Story of Dangerous Love - By VIDA HURST-——

Through DR. DON STILLWATER. SONIA MARSH, young and pretty. , obtains a position in the San Francisco real estate office of JED THOMAS. Ins unde. MAXINE LARUE, .head of her department, invites Sonia. VIOLET. KERN. JINNY and FRANKIE to her liquor party. WALTER D. HENDERSON, a wealthy bachelor of Berkeley, disapproves of Sonia living with Maxine. Sonia quarrels with BERT DONOHUE because of her infatuation for FRANKLIN CRANE, whom he 9ays is a periodic drinker, and retains his position In their office because his wealthy father was a friend of Jed Thomas, hut crane explains that he is absent to take his invalid mother on long auto trips. Maxine notices Jed Thomas' unusual interest in Soma. Sonia visits her sister VERA and sees an old friend. TOM UNDERWOOD, who is now engaged to SIDNEY MAINE. Maxine admits that her middle-aged friend. MAC MACGREGOR, is married. Crane tells Sonia his engagement to Genevieve Erickson was arranged by his mother, that he never intends to marry the girl, although the engagement can not be broken for fear of the bad effect on his mother’s health. In her extreme despair Sonia promises Henderson she will marry him within a month provided she does not change Ic r mind before then. ANN and SAM MARSH, Sonia's parents, are favorably impressed with Henderson. After a week’s absence from the offiei . Sonia finds Crane waiting at her door on New Year'B Eve. He asks her to give up her thought of marrying Henderson, hoping that a turn for better or worse in his mother's health will permit him to break his engagement. Sonia half-way promises, but keeps a date with Henderson; CHAPTER XXIX On the way home from the New Year’s party, Sonia relaxed, sleepily, in Walter's arms. They had driven somewhere for breakfast. She was too tired to remember the name of the place. She longed only for the white peace of her own bed. He was compelled to lift her from the taxi. •'Who would have thought two little drinks could do this to you?" he teased. She peered at him through heavy lidded eyes. “Oh, I’m dead. But it iSn’t the little drinks.” “What is it, then?” She refused to explain. After he had gone, she dropped her clothes on the floor and fell into bed. “To think,” she yawned, luxuriously, “that I can go to sleep knowing that everything is all right.” She slept around the clock, waking to the sound of crackling logs. Maxine was mending by the fireplace. The daylight was almost gone. tr ' Sonia stretched like a lazy cat. “Never in my life did I have such a wonderful sleep.” “I’ll say it was wonderful,’’ smiled Maxine. “The telephone has rung no less than five times.” “Has any one called me?" “Two üßome ones!” ■•Sonia laughed and sprang onto the rug with hare feet. “You may as well have the news, darling. Franklin and I are friends again.” "And his engagement?” inquired Maxine cautiously. “Will be off as soon as he can arrange It. . There’s the telephone again. I’ll answer it.” It was Franklin, asking if she had received his message at midnight. “I certainly did,” she admitted, shamelesly. “What time can I come over, Sonia?” She hesitated. “You will be reasonable, won’t you, Franklin? Because I really don’t know. I promised Walter he could come for tea at 5.” "What’s the Idea?” “I couldn’t tell him last night. Not on New Year’s Eve.” “I’m afraid you’re too soft hearted, darling.” “Indeed, I’m not! But he has been so decent to me. I will tell him, though, when he comes this afternoon.”

MICHIGAN ST. WOMAN EXPECTS TO HAVE BIG THANKSGIVING “She Is One of the Many Who Have Been Relieved of Stomach Trouble by Husky,” Say the Haag Drug People.

Facts of Remarkable Nature Continue to Be Heard at City’s Most Conservative Pharmacies. For many years Mrs. A. J. Beck, 436 E. Michigan, this city, has not been able to enjoy Thanksgiving Day to the fullest extent or any national holiday for that matter. "But this year I am going to eat all of the turkey and trimmings I want and I know a big meal won’t hurt me because I’m taking Husky,” she says. “Before I took Husky my stomach was terribly inflamed,” continues Mrs. Beck. ”1 also suffered with constipation. I often went a whole day without eating a bite of food. I was like a person on a hunger strike. "However, thanks to Husky, I’m so much better now that I’m eating any kind of food. I don’t have to be careful about my diet. Often I had a sore spot in my stomach that worried me quite a bit. My nerves were in a bad state, too, and !• couldn't sleep soundly. "I tried Husky with the most gratifying results. I’m always ready for mealtime —am never troubled with gas on my stomach. The soreness in my stomach is less severe. "My nerves are better and I sleep well. I feel like a different woman altogether. Husky is the best medicine I ever took for constipation. It acts on me without the slightest bit of griping.” Following are the names and addresses of others who have been helped by Husky; ask them: Mrs. Susue Whullen, 715 Michigan St.; Mrs. Anna Whaley, 314 E. North St.; William O’feork.e, 109 S. West St.. Mrs. EnimJciass, 521 E. New York St.

“And in the meantime what about me?” “Is it necessary for you to see me tonight?” “It most certainly is.” “Well, if you’ll tell me where you'll be 111 call you when he leaves." “I'll be right here at home, sitting on the phone. You promise to call me no matter how late he stays?” N "I do.” * • Tingling with delight at his impatience in wanting to see her, Sonia flew to dress. She found the bathtub half full of roses. Red roses with long, thick stems. "I put them in the tub for you,” Maxine explained. ‘The card's on the table.” The card said. “Hoping that we tnay share our happiness in this new year. Walter.” Very thoughtfully Sonia removed them from the tub and filled the Chinese bowls on each side of the fireplace. She was going to hurt him and she was so sorry that it brought the tears to her eyes. Mac came for Maxine, so Sonia was alone when Walter arrived. It had been his suggestion that she serve tea that afternoon. And, although she had seen it done many times in the moving pictures, it was Sonia’s first experience. She decided to use the red luster tea set belonging to Maxine. There were little cakes which she had bought the day before and thin slices of lemon. She was wise enough not to attempt sandwiches. The room was warm and softened with firelight, fragrant with Walter's roses and in her black velvet dress, Sonia felt that her setting was perfect. She intended to wait until they had finished their tea; then, sitting by the fire in the darkened room, she would confess to him. But he forced the issue. His eyes had lighted with appreciation as he opened the door. “How festive we look. Is this all for me?” “Who else?” "Kiss me, Sonia! Do you really love me a little bit?" This was not at all as she had planned. She felt that her cues had been bungled, spoiling all her lines. “Tell me, Sonia!” "Bet's have tea first.” As he discarded hat and coat, his lips tightened. “No, I can’t wait. I want to know now . . She went to him, putting her hand pleadingly on his arm. “Walter, I didn’t intend to tell you just yet." “You mean . . “Oh, I can’t do it!” she cried. "I have been trying to deceive myself as well as you. But there's no use going on with it. I’m in love with somebody else.” “So it is Franklin Crane,” he said, softly. “Please, don’t feel badly about ’t,” she begged. “I’m not worth feeling sorry about.” “What do you think I am, Sonia? If I love you, how could I keep from being hurt? I am no boy playing at love. This has been the real thing to me.” “I know it,” she agreed, wretchedly. “And you have been so sweet to me. I simply couldn’t have endured this last week If it hadn't been for you.” He smiled, grimly. “Yes, I’ve been of use, it 6eems. My God, Sonia, you don’t know what this is going to mean to me . .

He drew the little velvet jeweler’s box from his pocket. “This damned ring seems to bring nothing but bad luck. I have had it reset for you.” “For my engagement ring?” “Yes.” He opened the box and drew out the emerald, more brilliant than before in its new setting. Sonia’s fingers twitched with longing. It had been made for her, and yet, for the second time, she was refusing it. No emerald in the world was wdrth the priceless jewel of her love. Nevertheless, her eyes shone. “It’s just gorgeous . . she stammered. “And what am I going to do with it?” She sighed, "Save it for someone more worthy of being your wife.” “No one but you shall ever wear this ring, Sonia,” He straightened his shoulder*. “Well, there's nothing I can say. I believe I’ll go home.” “But the tea!” she cried. “Everything’s all ready.” “Afraid I'm not up to it, dear. Even middle-aged Romeos have their pipe dreams, you know. Mine has just been pretty well shattered.” t She watched him, ashamed and ill at ease, as he resumed h!s coat. But she felt that to express her sympathy would seem conceited. “Don’t look so tragic, Sonia,” he said, taking her hand. “You can’t help it any more than I can. And, remember, if anything ever happens to make you feel differently, my offer is always open.” * * * When the door had closed after him, she found that she was crying. But the first sound of Franklin’s voice in response to her telephone call, dried all her tears. Half an hour later they sat by the fire, drinking tea and eating the little cakes she had purchased for Henderson. And so insensitive is youth to another’s pain that neither of them saw anything incongruous in the situation. They were conscious only of supreme contentment. Outside, the wind howled; waves broke in white, angry spray against the beach; fog horns creaked melancholy warnings to ships at sea. But in the colorful living room there was only firelit happiness. It was like a waj-m, cozy little nest, lined with the down of love. “Nothing shall ever come between us again,” he promised. “I couldn’t stand it, Sonia. You don't know how near the ragged edge I was.” fehe returned his gaze tenderly. “Yes I do. I was a, wreck mypelf.”

"You didn’t look it.” “A girl always has recourse to such aids as rouge and powder,” she said, demurely. "No.” he insisted. “I believe you’re stronger than I. You would have gone on and married Walter if I hadn’t come up here last night.” “And been sorry all the rest of my life.” "Yes, but even so, you would have done it, Sonia. You don’t know how I went to pieces. I couldn’t work or sleep....” "Was that the reason you didn't come to the office?” "Yes,” he burled his head in his hands. “I did things I’m ashamed to tell you, Sonia.” "Don't, then,” she crooned. "Just forget about It. It’s all over now.” (To be continued) HUGE JAP TAX INCREASE Exceeds Expectations; _849 Million Yen larger Than Estimates.

STEERS EVICT TENANTS Animals Create Such a Bedlam That Undesirables Leave. Bu United Press DEBRECZEN, Hungary, Nov. 3. — —With the help of several steers Geaa Waldman, a local butcher, was able to put one over on the Debreczen housing authorities. In Hungary the laws protecting tenants against eviction which were adopted immediately following the war are still in force. Under these laws no landlord may evict a tenant without procuring for him another apartment just as good. Several weeks ago Waldman bought a house in which several families were living. Wishing to use the house for a butcher shop and meat storage plant, he gave notice to all occupants. Instead of moving out the tenants went to court. The court ruled that they could not be evicted. Waldman then bought’ twenty head of cattle and stabled them in A THREE DAYS ~ COUGH IS YOUR DANGER SIGNAL Persistent coughs and colds lead to serious trouble.
