BEGIN HERE TODAY Her mother was fanatical upon the subject of guarding her beautiful youngest daughter, so Diana Farwell reached her 18th year "cold and untouchable, and with very little real knowledge of life. Diana, atrtactive and longing for tne good times all youth is heir to, resented her mother’s attitude even though she knew it had something to do with her older sister, Vivian, who left home when Dianh was still a little girl and whose name was never mentioned in the family. . So partly to escape her mothers rigorous watchfulness and partly because she was flattered by the attentions of an older man, Diana married Arthur Vance, a prominent San Francisco lawyer and an old friend of the family. The young couple make their home in San Francisco and there Diana begins her “friendship” married life. But friendship without love in marriage seldom works. Diana’s platonic friendship Anally gets on Arthur’s nerves. She meets one of his friends Edward Staunton, who interests her. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XIII ■. URT by Arthur’s attitude as Hwell as by his understanding of her interest in Edward btaunton, Diana did not reply. When they reached the apartment she went immediately to her room. Arthur followed. “How do you suppose it looked,” he insisted, “to have you so absorbed in a man you’d never seen before? My lord, Diana, we’ve only been married three months. What do you suppose my friends were thinking?” “They weren’t thinking,” she replied coldly, k But the expression in his eyes nurt. “Oh, Bob and Ben didn’t mean anything. They’re all right. But £ don’t see why they had to drag Ed Staunton along. He’s no friend of mine.” / “Hadn’t you met him before?” “Yes, I went to what he calls his studio once. Didn’t care for it. £ have nothing against him, you understand, only I did hate to see you make a fool of yourself.” There a-e accusations no woman can endure. You may call her an ingrate, a tyrant, a vampire, a devil —but there is no woman living who will hear patiently that she is making a fool of herself. Certainly not Diana, who was accustomed to admiration, not admonition. “Don’t you say that to me . . ” “It’s what you were doing. Under my very nose . . . Not that I think you meant anything by your flirting.” “Is that so? Well, don’t be too sure of it.” She drew herself up with her old gesture of hauteur. Her blue eyes were flashing. But Arthur seized

Had Severe Pains and Stomach Gas Every Meal Tortured Him. Back Ached Always. Trouble Quickly Ended. Readers who are afflicted with stomach torture, back-ache, rheumatism or weak kidneys, will find good news In a letter written by Mr. George Ride, 426 N. Hickory St., Kankakee, 111. He says: “For many years, I had serious trouble with my stomach and kidneys. I suffered terribly with cramps, gas and biliousness after meals. I could hardly hold anything on my stomach, I was dizzy, weak, short of breath, and very sallow. My kidneys were weak and disturbed me at night. I had terrible headaches, severe pains in my back, my joints were stiff and I was sore all over. I tried about everything, but kept getting worse until I started using Viuna. It quickly brought relief, and now lam feeling fine. I’ve had no gas or bilious attacks since I started the second bottle. My back has stopped aching, my headaches have vanished, and those terrible dizzy spells are things of the past. My tongue and complexion have cleared up, kidneys are just about normal again, and I am sleeping soundly, eating with a real appetite, and feeling better every day. I owe it all to Viuna.” Viuna acta promptly bn luggl*b towel*, 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

her shoulders and cried fiercely, “What have I done to make you hate me so? My God, Diana, do you think I would have married you if I had knbwn you were going to feel like this?” She eluded him by her girlhood expedient. “You're hurting me.” His hands dropped. As if suddenly overcome by the futility of further argument, he left the room. But Diana could not sleep. She was haunted by the baffled expression of Arthur’s eyes. He was really suffering over her refusal to love him. She told herself that she had explained her ideas before they were married. She did care for him. There was no other man in the world she wanted. The thought of Louis and her passionate quarrels and reconciliations With him made her smile in retrospect. Arthur was a real man. She admired and respected him. And she would do anything—anything else—in the world for him. Why couldn’t he be satisfied? Edward Staunton interested her only as a type. She disliked explaining that much of their conversation had concerned Vivian. Shf was sure that Arthur would not approve her questioning or confiding in a stranger. Yet somewhere, somehow, she must see Staunton again. It was morning before she slept. Arthur did not call her and when they met at night the armed neutrality again prevailed. Days slipped by and Diana did not hear from Edward Staunton. When Bob and Ben telephoned to suggest another party Arthur made excuses. He was “busy working on anew case.” They would have to stay at home for awhile. Diana learned what it was to greet each day without hope of adventure. Breakfast, dishes, beds, the marketing. . . . Once a week the novelty of a morning at a beauty shop. Getting “dolled up” for what? Dinner with Arthur, who was too absorbed to notice her. At night he worked undisturbed while she finished the table cover and began a lampshade. Jade green, lined with rose! It was exquisitely done, but she was bored to the point of desperation. As she sat and stitched, demurely, she was picturing herself a tiger swishing about her cage. Lashing at the bars! In comparison the evenings spent on her mother’s porch had been wildly exciting. At least there had always been the chance of a telephone call, or the thrill of an anticipated “date.” She thought of Elizabeth longingly. Missing her affection, now that it was no longer thrust upon her. But one night in late November a telegram summoned Diana home. Her mother was dead. She would never forget her husband’s kindness then. He comforted her as if she were a little child. Because his important case was to be called for trial the next day. Ar-

thur did not accompany her, but he sent her away wrapped in a sympathy which did much to assuage her sickening grief. For Diana felt that she had not loved her mother as she should. Temperamentally they had clashed too frequently. Elizabeth’s suspicions, her frantic, frenzied surveillance, had done much to mar the pleasure of their association. Yet so cruel is death!' There, indeed, lies its sting—that they who are bereaved must remember only their shortcomings. so Diana wept with remorse over her ingratitude and impatience, wishing her mother might have lived to know how she regretted them. The journey home marked an epoch in her life. It was her first taste of sorrow. Back in the hushed, orderly house overrun with relatives, she had no sense of familiarity. The round chilled face in the coffin increased her despair. It was not her mother, lying unresponsive to those heartbroken tears. They told her Elizabeth had died instantly, with a heart attack. The information tortured her. After the funeral she stopped to see Dr. Vest. “I must know the truth,” she said. “Did that time I made my mother faint have anything to do with her death? Hasten it in any way?” He held both her nervous hands in his as he replied: “Not in the least, honey. Your mother had a weak heart before she was married. This might have happened any time in the last few years. Her death was the result of natural causes. No shock, even. You’ve worried over that, haven’t you?” She nodded unable to speak. “Let me tell you something, Diana. Your mother was a different woman after you were married. She was perfectly contented. “The last time I saw her she told me she hadn’t been so happy in years as she was when she received your letter about your husband.” Unspeakably comforted, . Diana went away. It was as if she had heard her mother’s voice, “You’ve made me so happy, daughter.” * “Thank God,” Diana thought sadly, “for those letters written on my honeymoon.” Long days went by, wrapped in gray shadow. Relatives and friends unconsciously officious, came and advised. Diana was surprised to find that she had been left her mother’s entire estate, with the exception of a bequest to the church to which Elizabeth belonged. It was no fortune, but a comfortable sum. Diana determined now more than ever to find her sister. If necessary she would force Vivian to accept her share. Even after her death, it seemed Diana was to go against the wishes of her mother. But now she was conscious of a developing personality. A sense of independence thrust itself into her life, forcing her to decide her own destiny! It was with this new feeling that she returned to her home in San Francisco. Arthur met her, tenderly. Secretly he was relieved to find her so calm. He had worried not a little over the effect of this first bereavement on a temperament like Diana’s. Had not thought her capable of the re-

straint she now exhibited. It roused his admiration. Undeveloped as she undoubtedly was, she was evidently not without pluck. And it pleased him. He made every effort to be considerate. At no time since their marriage had Diana been so close to loving him. But Arthur wa4 too chivalrous to press his claims in the face of her grief. One dark, rainy afternoon in December he came home early to hear her crying. It affected him more because she had done little crying when he was there. She was in her bedroom but the door was open. He went in, intending not to notice the tears which she was already wiping away, but something pathetic about the drooping figure forced him to her. “Why didn’t you call me, sweetheart? I could have come home an hour ago if I had known She relaxed, dejectedly, into his arms. “I didn’t want you to know. I hate to have you see me crying....” “My dear, I think you have been awfully brave.” “I try to be, but oh, Arthur, on gloomy days it’s so much worse— I can’t read or sew. All I can hear is the rain draping ” She shivered. He carried her into the living room and sat down with her still in his arms. “Shall I rock you, little thing?” “Will you?”. She was conscious only of the comfort of his warm body, as he rocked and sang snatches of silly songs. The fact that he really could not carry a tune roused a feeling of intense pity in Diana. Wasn’t it "darling” of him to go to all that trouble just for her? She sighed and one arm slipped about his neck. “You’re awfully sweet to me.” He pressed her closer and rocked on. But if he had kissed her then! Later she dressed and he took her to the Palace for dinner, then to the Orpheum. Christmas passed with little hilarity. Diana longed for her mother, thought wistfully of Vivian and lay awake for hours, wondering is she would see Edward Staunton again. The very next day he telephoned. “May I come out tonight?” She did not attempt to conceal the eagerness in her reply. “Oh, I wish you would. Wfe would be so happy to have you.” Arthur made no comment when she informed him that they were to have company. But he called the drug store and ordeied ginger ale, which she interpreted as a good intention. Staunton came, fortified by chocolates which bore further witness to his discriminating taste. He was

pleasant,’ impersonal and as detached as ever. The conversation remained mostly between the men. Diana enjoyed listening to their two distinct points of view. Although she was more in sympathy with Staunton’s, she preferred a man having the ideas of Arthur. But she was wild with impatience. How was she to find out about Vivian? She hoped he would be discreet and not mention it before Arthur, yet it seemed impossible to manage a word alone with him. Staunton seemed unconscious of any necessity for private communication until he arose to leave. Diana’s heart was in her throat. She felt she could not bear to see him disappear, perhaps for weeks, with no knowledge of his supposition reegarding her sister. But as he took her hand he suggested that she come to tea with him the next afternoon. “You don’t mind, do you, Arthur? I’d like to take her to the Temple Bar tearoom.” Arthur agreed rather too readily. Dima suspected trouble if she accepted, but the desire to know something about Vivian was like a fever, urging her on at any price. When their caller had departed, she glanced at her husband, ex-

pecting immediate singns of his displeasure, He yawned and began to collect the empty bottles. When she lifted her lips for the kiss which had already become a most meaningless little ceremony, he said: “Go on to bed. I’ll put this stuff away.” And that was that. She went to sleep with the fog horns booming: “Tomorrow, tomorrow. . . .” Little did she suspect the real significance the new day was to have. . . (To Be Continued)
