CHAPTER LIII Two letters to Deke Joyce, as if hypnotized, went to her desk and took up her fountain pen. She sat down and pulled a sheet of note paper toward her, then glanced enquiringly at Franky. “You little goose,” Franky said, coming over and kissing her. "You don't think I’m going to tell you what to write to your beau lover, do you? I’m going down to show your mother that I know something about her methods of cooking, learned from her daughter. Maybe she can show me some improvements.” She left the room and Joyce sat staring at the paper before her. She took out Deke's letter and read it for the hundredth time. Then she began to write. “Hear Deke: '‘■Jour letter which came several day* ago made me very happy. Perhaps ?qu wonder why I haven’t answered ,'t sooner. I couldn't Deke, because l didn’t feel worthy of your love. "You havo one Heard the story Alf Worn Out “ By Back-ache Says He's Full of Pep Now, and Pains Are All Gone. Does your back ache till it seems ready to break? A prompt way to end the trouble is shown in a letter written by Curtis Chappell, 1130 E. St.’ Clair St., Indianapolis, Ind. He tells about his recovery, as follows: ‘I suffered with pains in my kidneys and back for three years. My back at times seemed as if it would break in two. I was tired ouFmost of the time, and when I came home from work I just felt like I wanted to lie down. I lost flesh until I only weighed 155 pounds. Nothing I took did me any good till I found Viuna, and after taking only one bottle I was wonderfully relieved. My back stopped aching and I jpegan to get some pep. My appetite picked up and I began to gain weight till I now weigh 170 pounds (a gain of 15 pounds), and I feel fine and eat anything.” Viuna' Sets promptly bn 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 Viuna, your money will be refunded. $1 at druggists, or mailed postpaid by Iceland Medicine Cos., Indianapolis, Ind. VIUNA The Wonder Medicine

of what happened In Cleveland while you were gone from one of my friends. I am glad and proud that what Frankly told you Is true, every I word of it. But before you come to me I feel that you must know what some other people believe and will say of me all my life. “They say that I had been living with Carter all winter. They say that I never intended to go to the house party, but used that as an excuse to get away from work to spend a week with him. “They say that he took all that jewelry out of the bank so we could take it with us when we went abroad. They say that I had lived withButch Seltzer before that and that he was jealous of Carter and tried to kill him because Carter had taken me away from Butch. They say that my mother had a share in my intimacy with these two men and that she profited by it. They say these things and many more. “They are not just people we don’t care about. ‘They’ are the men and women we would expect to know and be friendly with if we were married. ‘They’ are the people your father and mother know, the people your sisters play around with, and it may Ik- a terrible thihgWor me to marry yob. “I want you to know all this before you come to me or send for me to come to you. I will do as you wish. You may come here, or 1 will come to you. There are things that call me back to Cleveland. I am hoping that you will let me heip you with the affairs of the plant, but we can talk about that when I see you. “Oh Deke, this has been terribly hard to write. Somehow lam sure that you will want me in spite of all the ugliness that has happened to me. At first I was terribly indignant and thought it unjust for people to say such things. But now I can see that any girl who goes recklessly ahead and plays with fire will have some kind of burnt fingers. It she isn’t burned by the man she is playing with, she’ll be burned by public opinion. “That seems to be especially true of a girl who tries to go her way alone. It would have been far better for me to have stayed with my father. I don’t blame my father apd mother. They are very happy now that their disagreements have been settled. But, oh, Deke, how different It might all have been If they had first of all understood that I must have some fun and had let you come freely to the house. And then after that, if I had always had a home to turn to, had always felt that someone was expecting me to come home. “But that is all past now. I am staying here with mother and

father and we are living very contentedly together, all except me. And I am very lonely for you; Deke. I know now that I love you. . “Can you understand when I tell you that one reason I left Cleveland was that I realized that I loved you and couldn't bear to have you tarred with the brush that blackened me. "I do love you. Deke. And I long to hear from you. “JOYCE.” “P. S.—l love your calling me Joy girl. It made me cry. But it made me happy, too.” She sealed the letter and called Franky from the kitchen. “Where shall I send It?” she asked. "To the house or the factory?” _ Franky thought a moment. “To the factory,” she decided. “He's there early and late. Come on. I’m going down with you to mail It.” They left together for the postoffice and although Joyce knew tjiey were being observed there was such strength in Franky’s presence that she no longer minded the prying eyes. “A special delivery stamp, please.” Franky demanded from Mrs. Elkins. “Must be in a hurry.” the postmistress said, takinfc the letter and scrutinizing the address. “You’re quite a stranger here, ain’t you?” to Franky. “Arrived two hours ago and am crazy about the place." Franky rattled back at her with a smile. “Knowed the Darings long?” the postmistress asked. “All my life,” said Franky. “Joy's my best friend. And I’m tickled to death to see her.” She looked around the store. It was not very inviting, but she bought some fancy canned things and a box of chocolates that had been pining on the shelf for six months, some olives, a tin of assorted cakes and other commodities that Mrs. Elkins seldom sold. “Can you send them up?” she asked Mrs. Elkins when the purchases were all made. “No'm, we can’t. I’m sorry.” Joyce beard the first courteous note she had ever detected in Mrs. Elkins’ voice. “Can you find a boy after school then and give him that for bringing things up to Mrs. Daring’s?” Franky asked, laying a bill on the counter. ‘Reckon T kin,” said the postmistress with a cordial smile. The girls left the store. “You're a wonder, Franky,” Joyce said. “That’s the first jdeasant look I’ve ever seen that woman wear. How did you do it?” “Money talks,’ said Franky carelessly. “Is she the girl who's been plastering your name all over the town.” “Yes. someone sent her a Cleveland paper with the story of the shooting In it.” Franky whistled. “Looks like Mattie Truesdale's fine hand. Wait till I get back to Cleveland. I’m going to make mother take Mattie's name off the Junior Assembly list. Mother’s chairman and she can do it. Then watch Mattie write.” Joyce was hardly listening. “When do you think I ought to hear from Deke?" asked Joyce. Franky laughed and squeezed her arm. “I think you’ll have a wire some time tomorrow, If I know anything about Henry Deacon,” she said. “What do you think it will say?” Joyce asked. “Oh he’ll probably order a million pisses and say he’s coming to collect the order himself,” Franky teased. “No, tell me. Do you think he’ll come here?” “I know he will, honey, just as fast as the train can carry him. Deke's had a tough struggle with the business this winter, but he told me he was just about out of the woods with It, so you two ought to have a glorious start together.” But no wire came the next day, nor the next. Franky stayed a day longer than her impatient father and mother wished her to, in the hope that Joyce would receive word from Deke. When she left the third day after Joyce had mailed her letter, she took with her the vision of a white face In which two large gray-blue eyes

burned with anxiety and sorrow. “What can I do. Joyce?” she asked in distress while they jraited for the train. tlThere’s nothing to £o, Franky,” Joyce answered. “You've done all you can and more. “I’ll live through it some way? Deke has probably changed his mind. He has every right to, you know.” “I don't believe it,” Franky said impatiently. “If ho has he’s no friend of mine. Now remember, Joyce, you’re coming to stay with me next month when you come to Cleveland. I'm going to take you to all the # clubs and entertain for you and anybody who cuts an invitation of mine gets written off the list.” “Don't, Franky,” Joyce said. “You can’t forget me down people’s throats. I don't want to be forced. I’ll stay with you, of But

let’s just be quiet and leave the entertainment for another time.” Franky kissed her. The train was approaching. “Good-by, Joyce dear. You'll hear from me. Don’t give up hope. Maybe Deke had to go away and hasn’t had your letter yet. Maybe that postmistress didn’t mail it that same day. A lot of things could have happened. I know Deke loves you.” And with a final pressure of the hand she boarded the train and left Joyce standing on the platform, waving a listless hand. On the day that Joyce had mailed her letter to Dfeke, Catherine Sherwin had held a conference with Matilda Truesdale. They were sitting at lunch at the Statler. Catherine was out of sorts. “You say Fitzy hasn’t heard a word from him either?" she said. “The earth might have swallowed him up for all we've heard of him since the day after the trial. You know he told all the reporters he was leaving on a tour of the world —alone. t Do you really suppose he is alone, or do you suppose that perhaps that Daring girl is with him somewhere. Judge Perkins told me she was in Connecticut with her father and mother, but I don’t feel so sure.” “Well, wherever she is, she's the cause of Carter's going away, and I don’t love her any for it.” (To Be Continued) (Copyright. 1927) (Famous Features Syndicate.
