SYNOPSIS Joyce Daring flees from a home broken by the separation of her parents, shortly after her mother, Agnes Daring, departs. Her father finds her but she refuses to return home. He sends an old friend, David Tompkins, to visit her. Her mother, Agnes Daring, writes her to come to see her at an all night restaurant, where she works, and arranges for another admirer, Henry Deacon, to be there. Joyce conies in with Tompkins. CHAPTER VIII Whistling in the Dark Mrs. Darling made a nervous gesture toward Deke. “Wait!” she whispered. She went toward the two who had seen and recognized her but had not as yet paid any attention to her youthful customer. “Mother, dear!” Joy’s eyes were shining, and she held two hands across the counter. Davey spoke an embarrassed good evening. “How are you, children?” said Mrs. Darling gaily. “I’ll be through In a few minutes. Won’t you have a bite to eat?” They shook their heads, "ParSOI SIM IS ra j ACIDS Says We Must Keep Feet Dry, Avoid Exposure, Eat No Sweets. Stay off the damp ground, avoid exposure, keep feet dry, eat no sweets of any kind for a while, drink lots of water and above all take a spoonful of Jad Salts occasionally to help keep down uric and toxic acids. Rheumatism is caused by poison toxins, called acids, which are generated in the bowels and absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine. The pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do double work; they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this poison, which keeps accumulating and circulating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles, causing stiffness, soreness and pain, called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts: put a tablespoonful in a glass of water and drink before breakfast each morning for a week. This is helpful to neutralize acidity, remove body waste, also to stimulate the kidneys, thus helping to rid the blood of these rheumatic poisons. Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is jised with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. —Advertisement.

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 Colonel 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 "fauna and bought a bottle. From the first 1 saw it was helping me, and so I kept right on, and now I am pleased to say my rheumatism is all gone and I feel fine, and work at the factory every day. I feel my present health is all due to yiuna.’’ Vluna acts promptly on sluggish bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys.

faits, at Huylers, before coming up here, 'Motherdear,” said Joyce. “Then I’ll thank you for taking care of Joyce and ask you to bring her In again, Davey,” said Mrs. Daring cordially. “We've a lot to talk about and I’ll see her safe home tonight.” Davey took Joy’s hand. “Good night, Jdy,” he said. “Thank you for spending the evening with me. When may I see you again?” “Call me up Tuesday,” said Joyce. “I’m going to be pretty busy earning a living, you know.” “All right. So long.” And Davey made for the door. Joyce turned to her mother again and started at -the sight of Deke. She felt confused. Deke was here because her mother had sent for him, of course. She was glad, and yet—oh, well, she didjike Deke. So she held out her hand. “Top of the evening, sir,” she said. Deke shook her hand warmly. “Golly, but I’ve missed you,” he said. “Run along,” smiled Mrs. Daring. “I’ll be out soon.” Joyce followed Deke to the bright Marmon and sank down beside him. “Now,” said Deke, laying a hand lightly over hers for a moment, “Tell Uncle Deke all about it.” So Joyce did. “And tomorrow I start in to be a hello girl. How do you like that?” she finished on a note of bravado. “I don’t like it,” said Deke soberly. ”1 think you’re wasting yourself at that kind of thing. Damn it all, Joyce, I don’t want you working yourself to death. See here, let’s run off and get married tonight. Then I’ll get my dad to let me out of my last year in school and go to work now. Will you?” “No,” said Joyce in a small voice. “And the reason is first that I don't want to get married to anybody, not the Prince of Wales himself, just now. And Deke, if I did care that way, to run off and marry you now it would be the most selfish thing in the world for me to do. So let’s stop talking about it. Here comes Motherdear.” She moved closer to him and he leaned across to open the door for Mrs. Daring, conscious of Joy’s thrilling closeness as he did so. “Shall wd drive?” he asked. “To some quiet place, please, where we can talk, all three of us,” said Mrs. Daring. Both Joyce and Deke felt a slnse of surprise at the quiet authority in her tones. They went across the bridge and out through Edgewater Park. At a secluded spot Deke stopped. “Would you like me to leave you alone?” he asked. Mrs. Daring said no in a jpw tone. Deke lighted a cigarette. “Now you two young people listen to me for a few minutes,” the 1 mother said presently, straightening j herself in the car. “First of all I j want both of you to know that 1 j love Joyce dearly. But when I was j a girl I made the mistake that thousands of women have made. I married and lost all my twm individuality. I lived my husbahd’s life instead of my own. It brought none of us any happiness. “I realized this some years ago and I set out to get myself square with life. I am making some headway. I earn enough money for the little luxuries that I always craved. I have taken a room in Joy’s rooming house on the third floor, under the name of Mrs. Martin. “I want to be near her, partly because I love her and partly to protect her if she needed it. I am telling you this, Joyce, because you must never recognize me as your mother. We will meet very seldom at Mrs. Jenkins, but when we do, it must be as strangers. Your father would resent it keenly if he knew I was in the same house with you. I don’t want to interfere with you in any way. I want Mr. Deacon to feel that you have the protection of your mother. Now tell mj what you’ve been doing, Joy dear.” Joy caught her astonished breath, and told her story briefly. “But I don’t see,” she finished in a bewildered tone —"I don’t see what your staying jn the same house and not letting on that you’re my mother has to do with it.” “More than you suspect now,” said her mother sadly. “Some day I will tell you the whole story. The time is not ripe for you to hear it now.” "I can see that it will be a good thing for Joy to feel that someone is near to help her, but not there to

interfere,” said Deke, speaking for the first time. “Thank you,” said Mrs. Daring gratefully. “I think we’d better go home now,” said Joyce. “I have to go to work in the morning.” .“You’re intoxicated with that idea, aren't you?” grumbled Deke turning the bright Marmon about. “Wait till I tell you all my thrilling experiences—you’ll wish you were a hello girl, too,” said Joyce. Deke shot the car ahead. “Like hell I will,” he growled. At Eighteenth street Mrs. Daring stopped him. I’ll walk the rest of the way,” she said. “I don’t want to be seen going in with Joy. And take her right home, won't you, please? She still has her reputation to establish with Mrs. Jenkins you know.” She kissed Joy warmly. “Come in to see me Tuesday," she said. “I’ll promise to be Davey. I didn’t know Joyce had a date with him, Mr. Deacon, or I’d not have asked you down this particular night”. Deke lifted his hat, half ashamed of letting Joy’s mother go this way. She was an ally he valued. Joy nodded sleepily. “Home, James,” she said yawning. “Head on Deke’s shoulder?” - he asked bending over her. She dropped her head against him. He put an firm comfortably about her shoulder and drove slowly out the avenue. In front* of the Jenkins’ number he slid to a noiseless stop. “Wake up, Joy,” he said, shaking her lightly. Joy opened her eyes. “Not very bright company, am I?" she asked. “Bright enough for me,” he said, withdrawing his arm from the temptation. “Joy, I want yrf\i to do something for me.” “Yes.” She sat up, staring at him. His tone was serious. “I want you to ocme home with me next Sunday for tea. My two sisters are-off„ at a summer camp and Mother and Father like me to bring my friends in. I’ve told them something about you. It’s funny they both knew your father a long time ago, came from the same small town it seems. Well, they know I’m pretty smitten and they want to see : you. Will you come?” “Oh, I’d love to,” cried Joyce clap- j ping her hands. “But are you sure, are you sure I will be all right?” she | hesitated before the imagined gran- ! deur of Deke’s home. “If you mean ‘am I good enough for the Deacons?’" said Deke impatiently, “why for Heaven’s sake get such a snobby idea out of your head!” “I’ll come,” said Joyce, climbing out of the car. “Only,” and she flashed Deke a smile and a dimple, “only it seems, well, very—official.” And before he could restrain her,

TO STOP NAUSEA IN HUNG Or Goneness in the Stomach At any Time Try a little diapepsln. You may be so sick in the morning that the odor of food adds to your misery. And yet one or two diapepsins instantly settle your stomach, the nausea disappears and you actually become hungry. Diapepsin is composed of powerful digesters. They work on everything you eat, digesting starchy foods, milk, cre&m, eggs, meat and also absorb acids and gas. Heartburn, biliousness and dizziness disappear almost instantly. Nausea may come from many causes but diapepsin works quickly in any case. Expectant mothers get real benefit from diapepsin, not alone in freedom from nausea, but more nutrition from better digestion. Get a 60 cent package of Pape’s Diapepsin at any drug store. You’ll never tolerate nausea again.—Advertisement.

she eluded him and danced up the walk. “See you later,” she called and disappeared into the dimly lit hallway, leaving Deke to swear\ softly and delightedly to himself. * He drove back toward Playhouse square with some vague idea of picking Mrs. Daring up, but she was not in sight. He stopped at a corner soft drink parlor and went in for a soda. From the doorway of a cheap all night restaurant across on the other side of the street Mrs. Daring watched the bright Marmon. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Deke climb into it again a few minutes later and drive away. She wont back to her table and continued the note she had begun. “Play for a *late Wednesday night,” ran the note. “She is at the Jenkins’ boarding house on Euclid avenue. Be careful and go slowly." From her bag she took a bank book. Across the top was written, “In the event of my death pay the entire balance to my daughter, Joyce Daring.” Following a series of small entries were recent ones of three hundred and five hundred dollars each. She put the book back in her bag and ro?e to go. Outside was a mail box. The note she had writen in the restaurant was sealed and addressed now. She thrust it into the slot. It was addressed to Butch Seltzer.
