THE SEQUEL TO SONIA

SONIA, the young wife of Dr. Don Stillwater, became jealous of her husband when she inadvertently learns he was formerly engaged to— BLAINE WALLACE, stylish wife of Stillwater's partner. DR. ROBERT WALLACE. Through ESTHER LANE, stenographer in the office, Sonia also learns that Dr. Wallace is somewhat of a flirt, and attracts many of hia women patients. Sonia fears the Wallaces may have heard about her affair with FRANKLIN CRANE before she was married. Sonia thinks Don is ill. because he is not looking well, and calls on Dr. Walace for advice. She receives no satisfaction from Wallace, who tries to flirt with her. She runs across Stillwater and Elaine Wallace in a restaurant later and is filled with conflicting emotions. On the night of their wedding anniversary. Elaine phones, calling Don away as they are about to go out and celebrate. He returns with a gift picked ouf by Elaine. Later at the Wallaces’ Elaine accuses Sonia of calling her husb;*id by phono and then denying it. Sonia receives a letter lrom franklin Crane, taying he is coming to San Francisco. oonia fears Don's love for her is waning and decides to leave home to live with Jinny of Jed Thomas’ office. Sonia refuses any financial assistance from Don. Jinny tells Sonia she is in love with a married man. who proves to be Dr. Wallace. A young salesman. Stephen Sessenger, in the office of Jed Thomas is interested in Sonia. Sonia meets Don while out walking with Stephen. The sight of him with the pained look about his eyes caused her to swoon. DoSi calls on her . and insists on her taking a rest. Sonia was thinking of the perfect evening spent with Stephen when he suddenly caught her violently in his arms. When she arrived home the telephone was ringing. It was Don. He was very angry at her. but proved to her he loved her. Sonia had (lined and danced with Stephen at, the Pheasant NOW GO ON WITH THE BTOUY It was late 'when they returned to Stephen's car. \ Pew words had been spoken by either of them.

GROSS. FEVERISH CHILD IS BILIOUS OR CONSTIPATED Look, Mother! See if tongue-is coated, breath hot or stomach sour “California Fig Syrup” can’t harm tender stomach, liver, bowels

Ev*ry mother realizes, after giving her children “California Fig Syrup,” that this is their ideal laxative, because they love its pleasant taste and it thoroughly cleanses the tender litstomach, liver and bowels without griping. When cross, irritable, feverish, or breath is bad, stomach sour, look at the tongue, mother! If coated, give a teaspoonful of this harmless, “fruity laxative,” and in a few hours all the foul, constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food passes out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. When the little system is full of cold, throat sore, has stomach -ac Vie, diarrhoea, indigestion, colic—remember, a good "inside cleanising” should always be the first treatment given. Millons of mothers keeep “California Fig Syrup” handy; they know a teaspoonful today save a sick child tomorrow. Ask your druggist for a bottle of “California Fig syrup,” which has directions for babies, children of all hges and grown-ups printed on the bottle. Beware of counterfeits pold here, so don’t be fooled. Get the genuine, sold by “California Fig'Syrup Company.”—Advertisement.

He drove rapidly, leaning over once or twice to pat her hand. The gesture reminded her of Franklin and their rid?s to his shack. She tried to put the thought from her. She had no desire to remember that or anything connected with him. Yet the memory persisted. The blackness of the night, the cold air against her face, the touch on her hand.... Stephen stopped the car. “We’d better turn around. Time to be going home.’’ She said nothing. Very gently he took her in his arms saying: “You need me, don’t you? Something has made you unhappy.” She wanted to put hej. head on his shoulder and let him comfort her. It wa§_ what she had placed to do. But when the moment came she felt a sudden contempt for her own weakness. No matter what Don did, she had no right to this boy's affections. She had sworn allegiance to her husband. He had said even if she no longer loved him, he expected her loyalty. But she did love him. Her passion for Don was the most vital thing in her life. She i would not cheapen it by trifling, I however lightly So she straightened up and said, matter-of-factly: "I Jjave been awful- > !y upset. Aijd yoiWve been a peach i to me. I do'neocr your friendship.” “Friendship? I'm crazy atymt you.” He buried his face in his hands, and the boyish gesture hurt. “Oh, Stephen,” she cried. “Please don’t feel badly. I didn’t realize....” She was ashamed when he took her hand and kissed if, murmuring, “Oh, I know how good and pure you are. I've known from the first you’d never lhve me.” She replied, sadly, “I’m sorry. I’m afraid we shouldn't have gone together at all.” She found Jinny still awake. “I can't sleep,” she explained, nervously. “Did you know Bob has gone away for a. day or two?” “Miss Lane told me when I called the office,” Sonia said, dropping into a chair. “She told me, too.” admitted Jinny. ! "I called him. I couldn't help it.” “All right, old thing.” “But I don’t want you to think I haven't TRIED to give him up.*’ “I know,” Sonia replied, wearily. | .Tinny continued, "I’m afraid I'll j NEVER be able to do it.” As got inro bed, Jinny added, j i”What hurts *me is the fact that he'sj left town without calling me.” “Perhaps he didn't have time.” “Pooh,” sniffed Jinny. “I'll bet he ; called that wife of his.” Poor, ridiculous, little Jinny! Holding out eager hands so that life can bring its ruler down—SMACK—to punish you! The next morning Sonia requested that Jinny say nothing to Bob about Don’s suspicion. “I’ve changed my mind about asking him to explain it,”'she said. “But why? What's happened since yesterday?” “Nothing much,” added Sonia, unwilling to repeat what, she had seen alhng the lake shore. “But how? can you fix it up with Don?” "I can’t,".Sonia said, bitterly “If! he wants to believe the stories 61 another weynan against his wife, why ! Should I explain?” “You're silly, woman!" “Sillier,” Sonia asserted, defiantly, “to try to fix it up.” Stephen was waiting for her at noon. "Will you go to lunch with met?" , “Not today.” “Please,” he pegged. “I want to talk with you.” She went but she made up her mind to be firm and show him that their association must end. He was so quick to sense her ' Test Answers These are the correct answers to the questions which appear on page 6: 1— 'The man has no ear. 2 Colorado. 2—Twenty-one years. 4 Potomac. 5 Three. 6 East. 7lf I were he I would go. 8— Milwaukee. fl—Friday. 10—New York City.

mood that he anticipated"' her decision. “Youlre going to tell me that you can’t see me any more, aren't you?” “I think it would be better,” she admitted. His blue eyes darkened with pain. ‘‘Oh, Sonia, I like you so awfully. Couldn't we go together once in a Vhile. I'll be good. You can trust me." ' “I do trust you,” she said, quickly. “What is it, then? What possible harm can there be in our seeing each other occasionally?” She hesitated, unwilling to hurt him, yet confident that his yduthfifi infatuation should be nipped in the bud. “I think it's better for you to go with girls who are unattached. It isn't wise for you to spend your i time and money on a married woman." . “But are you married? Where is your husband?” The question she had dreaded was out. How was she to explain that she was not living with her husband, i yet he was the most important thing in her life? ' I “We are not living together." she admitted, "hut we arc not divorced.” Me waited, so she added, ruthlessly: "t love him, Stephen. He’s the only man I ever will love. Don't you see how foolish it would be for you to waste your affection?” She finished with tears in her eyes. Partly for his sake and partly for her own. Their friendship had been the only bright spot in her colorless days. Now she must give it up. She wtiuld have nothing left. But in spite of Stephen's protestations his wounds would heal. He was not hurt mortally. So she forced herself to smile. “You've been lonely and so havty I. But you'll find someone else. There are many Interesting girls in San Francisco- Some of them as nice, perhaps, as the one in Seattle." His lips closed, grimly, and lie did not reply. Sonia felt that now she had pulled away from the last hand which might have helped her. The days were endless. And the longing for Don's love and companionship be came a physical pain. She told herself he should have trusted her. The wild jealousy she bad felt at sight fcf Elaine in his car had not died. But she swore now that she would never ask Bob to make an explanation or demand an apology from Elaine. If Don did not care enough to discover the truth for himself, she would not enlighten him. Jinny was still seeing Bob. not frequently but enough to keen her nerves strung to the breaking point. Sonia was sorry for her but she knew that nothing would help her but an absolute b eak. And this, it seemed, was the one thing Jinny had not the courage to do. Sonia tried to occupy her mind with her work. But she had never been obsessed with a passion for bookkeeping. She forced herself to

Suddenly the walls seemed to close in on her. She found herself at the telephone, repeating Don's number. (To Be Continued) Body of Missing Mine Victim Found Bit United Pres* PRINCETON, In.,.Feb. 3.—Francisco Mine No. 2 gave up its last victim early today, when the body of Emery West, 47, Oakland City miner, was brought to the surface. West's body was discovered in a shaft Which hrd not been searched before. The recovery completed removal of nearly forty bodies of min ers killed in the explosion last December. . Bodies of West and four other miners were left in the shaft when State mine inspectors sealed it to extinguish the fire which followed the explosion. The other bodies were recovered Wednesday.
