SYNOPSIS Joyce Daring is making her own way at 18, because her parents have separated. Her mother disappears mysteriously, after being shot by accident in a fight between two admirers of the girl, “Butch” Seltzer, a .gangster, arid Henry Deacon, wealthy collegian. Young Deacon returns to college, leaving the field to David Tompkins, an old childhood sweetheart, and Carter Deland, man about town. Deland accompanies Joyce on a shopping trip, and she finds after dining with him she has a dress worth six times w T hat she paid for it. CHAPTER XXII Gossip Joyce and Gladys had high words over the new dress. It was not until Gladys got her temper under control that Joyce would listen to her. 4 Please, Joyce,” she said, wishing she could coax the sullen look away from Joyce’s mouth. “Please, I’m sure that dress co&t a great deal more than you think it did. Maybe Mr. Deland thought he'd like to have you look nice when you were out with him. Maybe Deke gave him the money—” Here Joyce shook her head angrily. “I know he didn’t,” she said “Well," said Gladys, trying to speak calmly, “I’ve been down there at the Statler three years now and in that time I’ve seen Carter Deland rush five girls. Three of them are being kept now by married men, one of them pined away, a broken heart I guess, because she loved the skunk, and the other one is trying to be contented with marriage to a poor fellow who stuck to her when all the gossip came out. I don't think Carter Deland means one good thing to any girl he goes with, unless it's some rich dame frtfm his own class that he doesn’t dare go too far with. And none of them’s ever been able to hook him.” "You’re just like my father!’’
EVERYTHING SHE ME BROUGHT ON INTENSE MISERY Indianapolis Lady Given Blessed Relief From Stomach Trouble and Neuritis Pains. “I am so deeply grateful to Konjola that I would almost say I owe my life to this medicine, because it has completely ended a case of stomach trouble and neuxitis for ms after hundreds of dollars worth of other

treatments had failed,” said Mrs. Mary Strahan, well-known Indianapolis lady, living- at 1115 W. 18th St., this city, while talking recently with the Konjola man at Hook’s Drug Store, Pennsylvania and Market Sts., Indianapolis, where he is personally explaining this surprising new medicine to large crowds daily. “About 9 years ago I had ptomaine poisoning,” said Mrs. Strahan, “and from that time on until I got Konjola, I had been suffering almost a living death. Everything I ate brought on intense misery. My heart would flutter, I was always short of breath, and was troubled with sour risings. At nights I would sit in bed or on a chair because it was the only way I could breathe, and many times I would walk the Poor for hours. I would often have spells when I thought my heart would stop beating entirely and on i ome occasions l sent for my children because I didn t think I would get over these attacks. Besides the stomach trouble, 1 had neuritis of the worst kind. A pain like a sharp knife would pierce me between the shoulders and had my neck drawn sideways so that I couldn't move my head without suffering the worst agony. “All of these troubles had me helpless, and I tried all kinds of rubbing treatments, medicine upon medicine, and I don’t know what all, but it seemed like my case was hopeless. .'hep l got Konjola and the first l itile helped me, I began to believe I would get well, so I kept on taking inis medicine and now believe I am not the same person. I can eat anything I want, and never suffer with indigestion or pains of any kind. My food agrees with me and never causes the sour risings like It used to. My appetite is increased and the neuritis is gone entirely. My arms and shoulders feel like there pever was a pain in them. I have benefited in several ways by the use of Konjola, and don’t know what to make of my feelings of health. "I believe I am one of the happiest persons in the city since I got this medicine, and I want to recommend it to every one.” The Konjola man is at Hook s Drug Store, Pennsylvania and Market Sts., Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the local public and Introducing and explaining the fcjerits of this, remedy. Konjola is wold by every Hook Drug Store in city and all druggists throughout this section.—Advertisement.
Joyce cried. “Dads and you and Davey. You all think there isn’t a good think in the world. Dads used to be afraid of Deke for me. Davey hates to have me look at a man. Deke's the only one who has sense enough to see that maybe there’s something to me more than my pretty face. Maybe a man might like me .because I have a few brains. Maybe he might enjoy being with me me without plotting to ruip me, or whatever you call it.” “He might,” said Gladys dispiritedly. Then she began to cry. Joyce was softened instantly. "I didn’t mean to be cross,” she said, going over to Gladys,. “Honestly I didn’t. Don’t cry like that Glad, don’t please.” “Oh, Joy,” said Gladys. "I’m crazy about you. I never had a girl friend before that I like as I do you. You know how nearly Butch came to spoiling everything for you. I can’t bear to see you make another mistake. Your mother isn't here now to watch over you. I've just got to tell you what I know about tliftigs, about life, about —men.” Joy’s face clouded at mention of her/ mother. She felt guilty. She had ;iot thought of Motherdear all this Week. Perhaps there was some truth in what Gladys was saying. There were two letters from Deke unanswered. She had given no thought to her mother. She had not even telephoned to her father in his new boarding house. Was It her interest in Carter Deland that was doing all this to her? "What do you think I ought to do, Glad?” she asked. Gladys dried her eyes and looked up, cheered that Joyce was willing to listen to reason. “Well, if it were me I’d send him the dress express, c. o. and. But you being a lady will have to do it a little different, I suppose. You better ask him to tell you what it cost. Tell him you found out by accident that it was a very expensive dress and that you want to pay him /or it. Then hand him the money.” “How can I do that?” Joyce asked. “I've got twenty dollars in the bank and twenty-five dollars in my pocket book.” “Don’t you remember how I’m saving five dollafs a week to pay you back the hundred you let me have last June when you came here to live? Did you think that I wasn’t saving it?” She looked reproachfully at Joy. “When I told you I didn’t care when you paid it back, I meant it, said Joy. “I had no idea you were saving it every week.” “Why,” said Gladys, "I opened a special savings account under another name and I’ve been putting five a week in there right along. There’s lifty dollars in there now.” “That makes ninety-five I’ve got altogether. Gee, Gladys, I hate to spend all that on just one dress. It isn’t fair. I’d never have spent that much on a d'-ess myself. Now I’ll have to pay that much If you are right, just to please Mr. Deland. I think that’s a mean trick.” “Not half so mean as his trying to collect it some other way,” said Gladys. “He won’t,” said Joy., She reserved judgment until the following morning, although Gladys went to sleep believing that Joyce was determined to pay Carter for her frock. She felt a certain intensity In the glances of the other girls on the board next morning. “Hear you bought anew dress,’’ said Mariarf coolly. Joyce flushed and answered a call, pretending not to hear. Marian saw .the flush and felt ashamed of herself. “Sorry, Joy, really I am. Vinegar’s been telephoning the story all over the town, calling up every friend of Carter Deland has to let them know it’s no use chasing Carter for a son-in-law until lie gets over this case on you. Os course, I know about ninety-nine per cent of what she sayg isn’t true. But it made me ■ mad to have you make such a fool of yourself.” “Thank you,” said Joyce stiffly. But though she was offended she couldn’t help a curiosity as to what Miss Truesdale was saying about her. “Here, listen in if you want an earful.” said Marian presently, indicating the trunk line to Miss Truesdale’s room. “Yes, this is Mattie, dear. How are you? I’m well as I can expect. Have you heard the latest about Carter? Dear Carter, he does have such

queer tastes at times. Almost eccentric, I call it. Oh, just a little telephone girl here In the hotel. Pretty? Well, of course, I’m no judge. She’s rather ordinary looking, I think. But Carter took her out and bought her some clothes yesterday afternoon and when I saw them last night—oh, yes, he had her at the Clover Club for dinner. When I saw her last night she looked very well, wearing about five hundred dollaifs’ worth of clothes and jewelry. She had a very expensive watch, platinum, too.” Joy’s face was burning. She wanted to go straight up to Vinegar’s room and tell her that she was lying. “No use,” said. Marian, “She’s spread the poison all over the hotel now, and she’s going to see it that all Carter’s friends know. Say, she’s been trying to get Mrs. Deacon all morning, but Mrs. Deacon was out last night and still seems to be out. Isn’t that your boy friend’s mother?" Joyce felt a sudden fear chill her spine. She couldn’t bear to have Mrs. Deacon hear this story. There was enough in It to be damning Perhaps she would write Deke. Deke would believe in her, though. What was that he had told her one time about her own purity being her protection against temptation? She performed her duties mechanically until Mattie rang the Deacon home. She obeyed an impulse to cut off the call. “No good, Joy,” said Marian, touching her hand. There were points of honor among the sewing circle members and this was one, never to let their personal interests clash with their profession. So Joyce put the call through, praying that Mrs. Deacon might be out. But the pleasant well-known voice came over the wire. Joyce listened desperately. “Yes. What is it?” “This is Miss Truesdale speaking.” "I thought you’d be interested in some news of Henry’s little telephone friend.” “You mean Miss Daring, I suppose. We are very fond of her, my husband and I. We are always glad to hear from her or of her." „ Marian gave Joy a friendly look. “Good scout,” she whispered. Joyce could see that all the gjfls were listening. “She’s considered very pretty, I am told,” said the gossip’s acid voice. "Carter Deland has added his seal

of approval by taking her to the Clover Club to dinner last night.” “That was kind of Carter,” said Mrs. Daring. “Deke has been ruslfing her a good deal this summer, and I suppose his friends will want to keep Joyce from being lonely.” “And from being shabby, too,” there was triumph in the sharp voice. “She was wearing a stunning gown that Carter bought for her last night.” There was a sudden clicking of the receiver on the other/end of the line. The girls breamed a sigh of relief. Miss Truesdale signaled an operator. Marian answered. “I was talking to a Farf-mount number and' was cut off,” said Miss Truesdale. “One moment, please,” Marion restored the connection.. * There was a short pause, then the maid’s voice asked. "Who Is calling please?” “Miss Matilda Truesdale." There was another short silence. _ “Mrs. Deacon is not in,” came the Tnaid’s voice, courteously, but with finality. Joyce had aii impression of shouting. “She’s real thing, isn’t she?” breathed Marian. “Say, I’ll bet old Vinegar is mad enough to eat tacks. It won’t make her love you any," looking at Joyce. Joyce got through the morning somehow. i Over and under the ugly reminders of her predicament flashed the charm of Carter’s voice, the polish of his manner, the flattery of his attentions to her. They were not lightly to be cast aside. At noon she considered telephon ing him, but feared that he was at lunch and would not like to be called from his table. When she went off duty In the afternoon, Gladys signalled her. “Did you see hfm?” she asked. “Not yet,” said Joyce a little irritably. “Better do it right away, 4 ' said Gladys. “I heard the story three different ways already.” r Joyce went out of the hotel and across to a drug store where there was a pay station. She called Carter’s club. “Mr. Deland has left the city to be gone several days,” said a suave voice.
