His Rheumatism is Entirely Gone Found Quick Relief After 18 Years of Constant Suffering. Any reader who knows what torture rheumatism can inflict, will rejoice with Col. Bedwell, 605 W. Franklin St., Hartford City, Ind., in his complete recovery. Mr. Bedwell tells how he found the way back to health, in the following letter: "I suffered with rheumatism for 18 years without getting more than temporary relief. My feet and legs would swell until at times I could hardly move, and the pain was awful. I couldn’t even take off my coat without help. Then I heard of Viuna and bought a bottle. From the first I saw it was helping me, and so I kept right on, and now I am pleased to say my rheumatism is sill gone and I feel fine, and work at the factory every day. I feel my present health is all due to Viuna." Ifluns sets promptly on sluggttt ,zy liver and weak kidneys. It purifies the blood, clears thr skin, rsStores appetite and digestion, and bring* new strength and energy to the whole bodv. Take a bottle on trial. Then It you re not glad you tried Viuna, your money will be refunded. $1 at druggists, >r mailed postpaid bj Iceland Medicine VIUNA The vegitzble regulator

And yet a letter Is better than nothing.” He shook his head, begging, “Sonia, wait until tomorrow. Don’t go tonight.” "1 must. I’ve written them.” “But we could call them up, darling. What’s another night to them when we aren’t to see each other for months?” “I wish I could. I’d given anything...” “Then you will. I’ll be good, sweetheart...” “No,” she said, stubbornly, although there were tears In her eyes. “I will not break my promise to Don.” She was afraid her refusal might anger him. But he accepted it. heartbrokenly. “There is no use trying to perx suade you?” “No.” But longing sang in her voice. She touched his hand lingeringly. “You now I don't want to.” He went back to the apartment with her. He held her achingly close in his arms. She was of an added gentleness in his embrace.

born, no doubt, of the inevitability of their parting. She held his face between her hands, crying. “You will be true to me while you're away?” “Do I need to prove now, Sonia?” "I’ll never doubt you again. Four months is not so long.” “It will be longer than that, Sonia, perhaps a year.” She flung back her head, smiling, “What’s a year?” Then burrowed back into his arms, because she knew that year would be endless, lifelong, immortal, stratching into eternity... At 4 o’clock she tore herself from his embrace, crying, “I must go.” His farewell kiss wath without passion, chilled with acceptance of her decision. “I’ll take you to the ferry, Sonia.” She hurried to leave the' apartment. It felt vacant already. Tenantless! She left the keys with the landlady on the first floor. She sighed, "Well, I’ll never see that old room again.” She felt no re luctance in leaving. Its color would be dimmed without Franklin. It held memories, but she had learned that memories cool quickly. She was Impatient now to be off. To get through her period of proba tlon. She thought, “At any rate, I’m going away Just as ‘nice’ as when I came. That ought to please Dad.” Franklin drove silently and With care through the trafflo. Sonia wondered if the accident had taught him a lesson. There seemed noth fng more to be said between them. One thought loomed big in both their minds —she was going away! When they reached the ferry he bought her flowers. Spring blossoms—daffodils and tulips, messengers of hope. She took them into eager arms. As they turned Sonia heard news boys shouting extras. At almost the same moment she saw the headlines, “Body of Wealthy Berkeley Man 'Found in the Bay.” She did not know what impulse made her buy a paper. Without waiting for Franklin, she held out her own coins, seizing the sheet from the newsboy’s hands. But as she read she felt it was no news to her. Had he not warned her with his farewell on Thursday? It was Walter Henderson’s body, that had

"What else can I think? He 'VUsn t robbed. There was some money in his pockets." Her voice broke. “And the emerald ring he’d offered me." “You see, Franklin, he had pro posed to me again that afternoon. And when I told him I could not marry anyone now, I'm afraid he misunderstood.” “He thought It was because of me?” Isn t it awful? I had no idea he cared like that.” His harsh laugh grated on her nerves. “That's your trouble. You've no idea of the hell you’re responsible for.” She faced him sadly, admitting tho truth of the charge, but hurt that he should make it. Then she said. ‘‘Franklin, T cant go home now, I’ll have to wait.” She carried the paper with her to a small hotel at the edge of Chinnfown. She registered as Sonia Marsh and Franklin left, promising to call later. Sonia followed a Jjellbo.v to her room.

They had all. taken her by surprise—Don with his sadden tempestuous kisses the night he went away; Franklin with his unexpected loyalty; and now, Walter Henderson, who had taken his life for love of her. Sonia unpacked the bag she had brought and ordered dinner in her room. It was dark when she slipped out to buy more papers, all she could find. There was little variation in the stories. He had been dead for many hours, probably a suicide, the motive unknown. Two papers spoke of the emerald ring in an inner pocket and hinted at a love affair. Back in hehr own room Sonia scanned them thoroughly, but there was nothing more to be gained. The body had been taken to the San Francisco morgue pending investigation. The thought made her shudder. She hoped she would not have to >ee him again. He had I been in the bay two days. He was 1 always so immaculate, so 'wellgroomed, so fastidious.

She felt relieved. For once she did not feel up to seeing him. But she answered sympathetically, asking if he had seen all the papers. “Yes,” he answered, wearily. “Nothing much to be learned, Is there? Well, I’ll see you tomorrow, Sonia." When she was undressing for bed she eremembered that the next morning her father would go to meet her. In the stress of her emotion over Henderson she had neglected, as always, her family. She ran to the telephone, repentantly, and called Stockton. No matter how late it wa% she must talk to her father. Must explain to him that she was not coming before the morning that he expected her.
