CHAPTER xr-vm. The Journal I Joyce looked steadily at her mothIsr, and from her to Judge Perkins. ■They smiled at her encouragingly. F "Tell us the story of the shooting Hm you believe it occurred,” said the ■prosecutor kindly. B “I had gone with Mr. Deland as ■te described,” Joyce said in a low ■tone. I Necks craned forward to hear her. AII eyes were on her sweet young ■ace, shadowed with worry and I sleeplessness. "We had finished our tea and had I some talk, as he says. Then when I he left me alone Mr. Seltzer came in ■the window.” I "Was he a former acquaintance f yours?” the prosecutor asked, interrupting. "We had been schoolmates,” Joyce answered. “He wanted me to go tway with him. Mr. Deland returned. They had a fight, and Mr. Seltzer was shot.” "Did you see a gun in Seltzer's INGROWN NAIL rums Right Out Itself "Outgro" is a harmless antiseptic nanufactured for chiropodists, ilowsver, anyone can buy from the drug ■store a tiny bottle containing direeItions.

STOP BAD BREATH People afflicted with bad breath find quick relief through Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated tablets are taken for bad breath by all who know them. Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets art genHv >ut firmly on the bowels and liver, stimulating them to natural action, clearing the blood and gently purifying the entire system. They do that which dangerous calomel does without any of the bad after effects. Olive Tablets bring no griping, pain ar any disagreeable effects. Dr. F. M. Edwards discovered the formula after 20 years of practice among patients afflicted with bowel and liver complaint, with the attendant bad breath. Olive Tablets are purely a vegetable compound mixed with olive oil; you will know them by their olive color. Take nightly for a week and note the effect. 15c, ?oc, oc. All druggists Advertisement. Couldn’t Bend, Back Ached So Kidneys Disturbed Ilim During the Night, Trouble Gone Now. , Readers who are suffering from mckache and kidney pains, know how wonderful it felt to Mr. A. M. Caudell, Fortville, lnd. t to be rid of this agonizing trouble. Mr. Caudell writes; “Six weeks ago I got a severe aching in my back. It just seemed aa if my back would break in two. and I could not stoop over without pain. I was nervous, and my kidneys disturbed me during the night, so* I did not get much sleep. I would get up in the morning with a dull aching headache and feeling just as tired as when I went to bed. Nothng did me any good till I found Vluna, and right from the first I began to improve. The hurting in my jack stopped and i went to bed and got a good night’s rest. My nervousness has gone and I can sit down to the table and eat a good hearty meal. I tell you Viuna is a wonder. I don’t have to get up at all at night any more and am feeling fine.” Vluna acts promptly on sluggish bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys. It purifies the blood, clears the skin, restores appetite and digestion, and brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a bottle on trial. Then If you’re not glad you tried Vluna, your money will be refunded. $1 at druggists, or mailed postpaid by Iceland Medicine ■Co., Indianapolis, lud. VIUNA , The Wonder. Medicine
hand?” the prosecutor asked. “Yes. Just before Mr. Deland ilred, Butch drew his gun.” "Can you ascribe a purpose to Seltzer's being there at file time?" the prosecutor asked. “Exception!’’ said Judge Perkins, rising and speaking firmly. “As Miss Daring’s counsel I advise her to answer only pertinent questions.” ”1 feel that a motive for the presence of the deceased should be established, your honor,” said the prosecutor, looking respectfully at Judge Perkins, who was well known to him. “1 believe the defendant can ascribe a purpose,” answered the judge. Curler's lawyer stood up. "As the first witness, Mr, Hopkins, stated, Mr. Deland frequently had large sums of money with him, and on the night of the shooting he had taken with him some valuable jewels which I will show here, with the court's permission." Amidst a profound silence, CarI tor's lawyer produced the jewel I chest which Joyce had seen the evening before. He dumped Its contents on the table at the foot of the room, and the winter sunlight caught gleams from emeralds, rubies and other gems. Not even the presiding judges gavel could still the buzz that hummed in the courtroom at the sight. I Joyce was released from the wit* j ness stand and Carter recalled. "These jewels are your proprety?" the proseeutof asked. "They are. 1 took them from the | bank vault Saturday morning. 1 | am quite sure that Seltzer followed ' m® to the bank and prolxibly guessled that I carried valuables away with me.” "What was your purpose in removing them from the vault?” the prosecutor asked. "I wished to give them to Miss Daring, whom T had asked to be my wife,” Carter answered. "Is it not true that you are already married?" the prosecutor went on. "Exception!” cried Carter's lawyer. The presiding judge granted the j exception and ordered Carter from ! the witness Stand. "From the evidence,” he said. | addressing the courtroom, 'it ap- j pears that this killing was an act of j pure self defense. Unless further ; evidence, tending to show murder j or manslaughter, is put before me, i the case is nolled.” He sat down and waited for the courtroom to clear. Mrs. Fitz-Simmons rushed up to Carter and shook his hand warmly. Members of the house party joined her. Joyce, her mother on one side. Judge Perkins on the other, passed from the courtroom alone. In the corridor there was a busy clicking of cameras. Joyce ducked her head, but could not avoid the cameras entirely. Presently the house party milled from the court room and cameras were busy again. Reporters besieged Carter for an interview. "I am leaving tonight on a lour of the world. I have nothing to add to my testimony in court,” was his invariable reply. Judge Perkins put Joyce and her mother in his car and drove them rapidly away from the courthouse. "Suppose you go to your apartment and stay there until I can arrange for you to leave the city.” he said. "Let the telephone ring all it will. Don't answer it. Don’t go to the door until four this afternoon when I will return wtih all arrangements made for your departure.” He went up to the apartment with them. "I think I can turn the trail of these reporter chaps.” he said with a smile. "Do you have a picture of yourself?" to Joyce. “Never mind if it isn’t a good likeness. I'm going to announce that you are the heiress to the Maltby fortune. That will help to give credence to the story you had no interest in Carter, being wealthy In your own right." Mrs. Daring saw the wisdom of this arrangement. Joyce demurred. "I hate to use Mrs. Maltby's friendship this way," she said. "She would be the first one to stand by you loyally,” Judge Perkins answered. So Joyce gave him a picture of herself, taken in high school days, and that night the papers carried a double sensation. Side by side with the account of j her rumored relations with Carter j stood the story of the money ehe ! had inherited from Mrs. Maltby. To some it xvas a vindication of her. No girl with that amount of j money would feel any attractions j for life as Carter Deland's mistress, j To others it was simply further evi- j deuce of her grabbing nature. Miss Truesdale was an ardent , supporter of this latter school and spent a busy evening blackening ; Joyce, commiserating Carter, and | having a thoroughly good time. Mrs. | Fitz-Simon felt sorry for Joyce, but j saw no way in which she could be i of help to her.

| “It isn't as though she was really part of our circle,” she said in a puzzled tone to Helen Powers. “No,” agreed Helen, a little sadly, for she had really liked Joyce and felt that if Franky were here she would be expected to stand by the girl. "But when you lose your repuj tation that way, even if you haven't done anything wrong really, you're | just done for.” Mrs. Fitz-Simons sighed and nodj ded her head. Mrs. Daring slipped out early in I the afternoon and bought the pa- ! pers. Joyce read them, her eyes ' red with weeping. (low glad she i was that. Deke, and Deke's father ; and mother were not there. Rut : they would have to know some time. "I can't tell him,” site told her- ! self, "if he wants me after all this | has happened, he'll come to me. If j I go to him, he will just feel sorry ; for me.” I She longed for him as she had never longed for anyone before. But J she felt that until he had heard the i story and could judge for himself, | she had no right to try to reach him. : A brief letter had told her of the provisional success of his New York trip and that he was en route to Chicago, where he would be im mersed in business for two weeks. "Then I’m coming home to you, j oyce,” he had finished. Joyce read (his letter again. It emphasized her loneliness and sadness. “He can’t come home to that Joyce, ever,” she thought. "I'm a different Joyce.” He would even leafn first now of Mrs. Maltby's gift from newspaper accounts. At 4 o’clock Mrs. Daring admitted Judge Perkins. Davey was with him. “This young man has been trying to reach you all day, by telephone, and in person. And when he failed lie came to me, and after he persuaded me that he was really a friend I brought him with me. Things arp all arranged Y° u to leave for New York, tonight. Suppose I take Mrs. Daring out for a little drive and some dinner. These two young people would rather lie alone. I am sure.” Judge Perkins was his old kindly self and Joyce warmed to Ills friendship. When he and her mother had left she sat lookin gsadly at Davey.' Davey came over to her and lifted her to her feet. "Don't go away, Joyce,” he begged. "The little house is ready. Judge Perkins can marry us now, this afternoon, and I can take you home tonight. Your mother can go on to New York and get your father and they can come back and make their home with us. Come Joyce, let me take care of you. I love you. More now than ever before/ Oh, Joyce, Joyce, say yes.” Then Joyce knew what siie must do. She released herself gently from Davey's arms and went to her bedroom. Returning she laid the ■ key to the little house in his hands. He looked at her questioningly. "I'm giving it back,” she ! said. “Ii should have given it to you long i ago. For, Davey, I know vow, I j guess I've alw-tys known, that 1 love Henry Deacon.” "Then where is he?” said Davey violently. “Why isn’t he here beside you, taking care of you?" "Deke doesn't know about any of this.” Joyce said. "He doesn’t even know that I, that I, love him. He may not want me when he hears all the talk he will hear, hut that won’t change my loving him always.” Then Davey rose to anew peak of manhood. "He will want you," he told the girl. “Deke is not the kind to run from trouble. You ought to send for him, Joyce. He has a right ’ to know'.” Joyce looked at the floor. Tears , came again to her eyes. "I—can’t —," she faltered. Davey straightened himself. "I’m sorry that you don't love me, Joyce. There isn't any other girl for me. There never will be. But that won't change my believing that you are the sweetest and loveliest girl in the world. I want you to be happy.” Joyce sobbed unrestrainedly. Davery put hir arms about her. much as her older brother might have done. For a few moments they were girl and boy again, and Davey was

| comforting her in some childish grief. Then Joyce stepped back from him and took his hands in hers. "I can't thank you, Davey,” she said. “Some day perhaps you will know ! what your coming here now, what j your saying that you think Deke j will still want me, means to me, 1 1 can’t tell you now'.’’ j "Don't try,” Davey anrwered. He | looked at the key he still held in ; Ills hand. "The little house will i miss you, Joy. It’s been expecting i you some day. I've dreamed of you *in it a thousand times. But now’, now that you tell me you care for Deke, I haven't even the right to dream of your coining there.” They shook hands and Davey left, j Joyce felt that he took with him the j last vestige of her old life. Presently her mother and Judge Perkins returned. They were very cheerful. "Carter ir going away too,” the judge said. “For a time that will lend color to gossip. But these things die soon if there is nothing for them to feed on. I advise you to get your father, go to some small quiet place in the east and buy a house and settled down in it until this has blown over. Then you murt come hack. You must come hack, you know’. You have work here for Mrs. Maltby. And you have many friends who still will be glad to welcome you whenever you come.” Joyce felt the trutli of these words. ' Some day she must come back to Cleveland. Mrs. Maltby had left her ! a task to perform. But not soon. : Oli. no, not soon. Unless, unlesr, Deke should send for her. And W’ith all her heart she prayed , that night, as the train left the sta- j tion, that some time soon she would be coming back, coming back to Deke.
