DON’T RELISH HER BREAKFAST
Head Ached and There. Was a Dull, Stupid Feeling That Indicated the Need of Black-Draught.
“I have tried many remedies for constipation, but the most satisfactory one is Black-Draught,” says Mrs. Lloyd Duncan of Pine Knot, Ky. T began using it four or five years ago, and still use it when I need a laxative. It seems to cleanse my system. “I used to have severe headaches, would get up' in the morning with a dull, stupid feeling, and a bad'taste In my mouth. I didn’t feel like I wanted any breakfast, and I didn’t feel equal to my work. I now take Black-Draught as soon as I begin feeling these symptoms, and a few doses makes all the difference in the world. I do not lose a day with headache, and I do not have sour stomach any more. "I give Black-Draught to my little girl when she has a cold and needs a laxative. I keep it in easy reach on my medicine shelf.” Every one, and old, should learn to keep their systems free from Impurities. Constipation locks poisons up in the body and allows them to do their dangerous work. They should drive out these poisons with Thedford’s Black-Draught, the old, well known, purely vegetable laxa-tive-cathartic medicine. Get a package today. For sale everywhere; 1 cent a dose.

SYNOPSIS NANCY was a GAGE— and at ona time one of her uncles had been Governor of Virginia. What if she did live beyond the railroad tracks? She was a Dlueblood, and If RAYMOND HOLLANDSBEE, member of one of the most exclusive families In town, chose to ignore her after he had attempted to kiss her when boat riding the nlgnt before he did not deservo a second thought. But he did get a second thought, also a third and fourth, and when Nancy visits her grandmother In Ole Vlrglnny and attends a party she Is surprised to find Raymond one of the guests. Back home Raymond evinces new interest in Nancy, which is terminated only by the advent of his college term. Shortly after this Nancy meets ERIC NELSON, new manager of the Gas and Electric Company, at Edith Harcourt's, a school chum and daughter of the town’s richest man. Nancy Is strangely attracted to him. They fall In love, but Nancy’s mother evinces bitter opposition. CHAPTER X “Nancy,” Eric asked, “are you going to be busy tonight?" “Why?” “I want to see you. I owe you an explanation.” “Not at all, Eric. It’s nothing to me what you do.” There was silence for a moment before he continued. “Os course, if that’s the way you feel about it" “It certainly is.” “Then you’d rather not see me?” Nancy swallowed over the lump in her throat and answered, “What’s the use? Someone might tell you Raymond was coming up, and you wouldn’t keep the engagement.” “That’s not fair, Nancy. There’s more to it than that” But her outraged pride would not permit her to listen to him. She replaced the receiver blindly, stumbling to her own room, roused from passionate sobbing by her father’s voice. “What’s the matter with Nancy?” "Don’t talk so loud, Silas, please.” "Answer me, then. I want to know—what’s she crying about?” Amanda’s voice, meekly placating, said, “I suppose she’s crying about that Nelson fellow.” "What’s he done?” “Nothing he’s done exactly.” “Well, well, get it out, Mandy, if you kno.w anything about it." “I know all about It,” Amanda returned with unexpected spirit. ‘Raymond Hollandsbee come home and she turned him down on account of that Swede.” “Good for her,” approved the scion of the Gage family. “I never did like the Hollandsbee nit wit.” "How can you talk that way? I suppose you’d rather see your daughter married to a fellow tf we know nothing about?” “I’d rather see her married to an honest to God man when she has a chance at one.” “She’s not going to marry Eric Nelson,” declared Amanda with the same stubborn determination which had made her Mrs. Silas Gage, “because I’ve put a stop to it. I went to his office yesterday.” Her voice fell until Nancy could not longer catch the words. But she had heard enough to bring her up gasping. Amanda, the meek, the eternally pliable, had dared to go to Eric! No wonder he had become suddenly uncommunicative. There was no telling what she had said. Nancy stalked to the kitchen, scorning even to remove the traces of her tears. “Mother!” she cried, sternly, “I heard what you said just now. Do you mean you actually went to see Eric?” Spots of color flared In Amanda’s cheeks, but she stood her ground. “I did.” “What did you say to him?” "That’s my business,” the other retorted. She lifted the roaster from the oven and began to baste the turkey, but tears were rolling down her cheeks. “All my life I’ve slaved and sacri-

ficed so’s you could be somebody. I’ve tried to dress and talk and act so you wouldn’t be ashamed of me . . . "Mother, please . . .” “It’s true," "Amanda continued, deflnantly. “I haven’t been good enough for your fine friends, Just as I never was for your father’s family. But I’ve stood for it without saying a word.” Torn with remorse, Nartcy ran to put her arms about the trembling figure. “Why, darling, I’m not ashamed of you. I haven’t meant it that way.” “I’ve seen it, Nancy. But I didn’t mind so long as you was trying to get somewhere. It’s when I see my work and worry wasted I can’t stand it. You’re breaking my heart . . At the beginning of the conversation Silas had snorted with disapproval and disappeared into his shop. Nancy, patting her mother on the back, wondered if for the first time in her life it would be necessary to ally herself with her father. In this case he seemed so much the more reasonable of the two. “Now, don’t cry. Mother. You know I wouldn’t like anyone who wa3 cheap or common. Eric’s a gentleman as much as Raymond. Without so much money, of course, but I’m sure he’s from just as good a family.” “Why are you sure?” demanded her mother. “I don’t think he Is. There’s something rough and unpolished about him.” • "That isn’t true. Qh, well, what’s the use arguing?” “None," sniffed Amanda, with no sign of weakening. Nancy returned to the living room, amazed at her mother’s unsuspected tenacity. If only she had been sweet to Eric when he called. At least she should have let him come and offer his explanation. What could Amanda have said to him? Knowing how reserved he was, she doubted if he would ever tell. Christmas dinner was eaten in frigid silence by the Gage family. Amanda served, stopping occasionally to wipe the tears from her eyes. Nancy’s father ate rapidly and escaped as soon as possible. When Nancy started to carry out the dishes her mother said, “Just leave them alone,” so she wandered from dining room to living room and beck again. Nothing to do! No way to occupy her time. What was happening at the Harcourts? Dinner being served in the elegant dining room. Flowers on the table; wreaths of holly in all the windows, with here and there a little mistletoe. Edith would see "to that.
But Nancy couldn’t picture Eric playing up to the extent of kissing her hostess under William Harcourt’s eyes, although Edith had admitted he liked Eric. “He’s a real MAN,” thought Nancy. Even her own father thought so. He was the type other men appreciated. From her seat on the leather couch Nancy watched the hands of' the clock; listened to it striking the hour after it was dark. Amanda still was in the kitchen, busy with her unending tasks, when Nancy crept to the telephone and repeated Eric’s number. She called three times before she found him in his room. “Eric,” she begged, “I’m sorry I was cross this morning." "Don’t mention It, Nancy. I’m inclined to think you were right.” “What do you mean?” she inquired, anxiously.

"No use for us to attempt to go on!” "You mean you don’t care to?” His voice sounded tired. “We seem to have had nothing but rr from the very be teaming.” “Do you still want to see me tonight?” “Not if you’re going to be unreasonable.” His frankness was appalling, but Nancy replied bravely, “I don’t feel unreasonable now. And I want to see you.” In the end he came with an eagerness in his face which did much to comfort her. “Sweetheart,” he said, "I love you.” Magic words! They obliterated her unhappiness as if it had never been. But she made him sit down while she asked what her mother had said. "It isn’t my place to tell you,” he insisted. “I thought at first I’d Just stay away, but when I saw that you didn’t come to the dance I made up my mind that no one under heaven could keep us apart if you love me. Do you, Nancy? DO YOU?” “Oh. she cried, “I adore you.” He held her away from him and looked searchingly Into her eyes. “Enough to marry me in spite of anything your mother or any one else may think?” "I wonder if you do or if the physical attraction we have for each other has blinded you to everything else?” "How could It? Os course not. Why, I think you’re perfect." He sighed. “You’re only proving my point You see, I know you’re not perfect I think you’ll probably make a very incomptent wife." “Why, Eric Nelson! You don’t love me If you can talk that way." “I love you,” he insisted, “in spite of it. But you can’t cook can you? You don’t know a thing about keeping house. My wife will have to do all of those things.” “Not the washing and ironing?” she shivered. “I couldn’t do that” “I hope you won’t have to. But I really should marry a girl who could. My mother is a great believer in the efficacy of honest toil.” It was seldom he spoke of his mother. Nancy asked: “Do you mean she would expect me to do those things?” “She will expect you to know how to do them. I may as well warn you, Nancy, that we shall have to be satisfied with each other, because neither of us is going to be congenial with the other’s family.” She wondered why he should thrust, this Information upon her now, when ALL she wanted was to kiss him and be held close In his arms. . . ,

She pouted, teaslngly: “If I marry you in spite of my mother’s objections I think ypu ought to be willing to take a chance on me.” “My dear, I would marry you If I knew 1 had to live on chocolate fudge and marshmallows for the rest of my life.” “Then why the conversation?” "Because,” he said, seriously, “I must be sure that you are going to be willing to overlook the differences of opinion you and Mother are sure to have.'
