"Which park!" Cecil asked quickly, glancing up at him. " 'Any one,", he said gaily. "There i on near, Isn't there?" ' ' "Well go on a penny hus down to Chelsea and then get Into Battersea Park," she Bald. Together,' they boarded the omnibus. The sun was shining the summer was coming. "It's a good world" Cecil said. She was .very ' conscious that Robert's appearance and presence rather added to the betterment of the universe. "Adam, do you know you've been here with us a month?" she asked. , lie wrinkled up his face a little. "A month!" he repeated. lie brought down his clenched hand on his knee. "I'd give my soul to remember where I was before," he said; "what 1 did what sort of chap I was. This hasn't been all my life, I am snre of that." A little squad of Lancers rode by In the roadway below, their pennons flying, their horses stamping. A great wave of blood dyed Robert's face criirson. "Soldiers," he said in a whisper soldiers!" . He caught Cecil's hand. "I shall be late on parade," he said quickly. "Tell the man to drive back as quickly as he can, will you?" Cecil stared at him. Her quick brain caught the allusion. "Adam," she said, "what on earth do you mean? No dont answer I understand you were a soldier once Is that it?" Robert laughed shortly. "Oood Heavens!" he said, "It is no good; I can't remember. Somehow those chaps on their gees reminded me of something I don't know what." Cecil, glancing at him, saw how worlied he looked. She suddenly tightened her clasp of his hand. He looked down at her, smiling. "You are a dear little pal," he said simply. The words heat into Cecil's mind. She was his "dear little pal' Then what was he to her?" "Adam," ohe said in rather a shaky voice, "you re quite a dear!" . Again and again as, together, they walked in the park, that strange question obtruded. Why was she so anxious that 'Adam should not be found? Why had she liked it when he called her his "little pal"? Cecil was not introspective. She did not know that it is very nearly impossible for any girl of eighteen to be constantly with a man who is her friend a man whom 6he has nursed and attended without that girl almost Inevitably finding out that she cares for the man. Liking never stands still: It either grows' a little more or becomes a little less. Cecil suddenly knew that she would hate it if Adam were taken away from her now. "I'm ; desperately hungry," Robert said. "Let's go on a wild 'bust somewhere, old lady." Cecil's mood swept round to his. "Come oh," she said gaily, "and we'll realize the dream of my Hfe. We'll have tea at the Delaroy." It was just five o'clock when they reached the "dream," with its big porch and its magnificent braided commissionaire. "You go first," Cecil said. She had never been in there before.

Robert, with rather a puzzled look, walked down-stairs. Cecil delightedly followed him into the big tea-room. They found a little table to themselves in one corner. "Adam, there's a band up there," she said excitedly. "Isn't there always?" he asked amusedly. They had toast and scones and sar

dines and tea, all excellent and all enjoyed by both of them. Cecil leaned forward. The music and the crowd and the lights all made her long for a different sort of life, she said., Her eyes shone; there was a faint rose flush on her smooth cheeks. She had discarded the scarlet effect in her clothes and was wearing a simple frock and a very pretty straw hat. ' .. . " She looked very young and attractive. "Adam, she went on In her rather drawling, caressing voice, "I want a chance a thing with a big C. I want to get on." "What as on in especially?" "I want to act to go on the stage. The money part doesn't attract me so much as the fame. I want to be somebodyI want to get on! What half-forgotten instinct prompted Robert to say: "Why don't you go and see Miss Ford and ask her to help you?"

,"Do you mean Ford, the great actress?" Yes." - . ' ' "Do you know her, Adam?" Alas', for half -forgotten memories! "No, I don't; at least, I think not! How idiotic that sounds! But I believe I have heard that she is very good to beginners." Rachel had once kept him waiting for half an hour while she "helped" some poor girl by her criticism and advice, a girl who had since made her debut in Rachel's company. The intent look crossed Robert's fftC ft&in "Don't look like that!" Cecil said jealously. "You seem to go so far away! Come back to me. and tell me how I can see Miss Ford." "Couldn't you writer "I don't know her address." "Neither do I." Yet. the happiest hours of his life had . been spent at that little flat in Queen Anne's Gate! To be continued .

K Free Prescription You Can Have Filled and Use at Home Victims of eye strain and other eye weaknesses and those who wear glasses, will be glad to know that according to Dr. Lewis there is real hope and help for them. Many whose eyes were failing say they have had their eyes restored by this remarkable prescription and many who once wore glasses say they have thrown them away. One man says, after using it: "I was almost blind. Could not see to read at alL Now I can read everything without my glasses, and my eyes do not hurt . ny more. At night they would pain dreadfully. Now they feel fine all the time. It wss like a mirncle to me." A lady who used it says: "The atmosphere seemed hazy with or without glasses, but after using this prescription for fifteen days everything seems clear 1 can read even fine print without glasses." Another who used it says: "I was bothered with eye strain caused by overworked, tired eyes, which induced fierce headaches. I have worn glasses for several years, both for distance and work, and without them I could not read my own name on an envelope or the typewriting on the machine before me. I can do both now and have discarded my long distance glasses altogether. I can count the fluttering leaves on the trees across the street now, which for several years have looked like a dim green blur to me I cannot express my joy at what it has done for me." It is believed that thousands who wear frlasses can now discard them in a reason

able time and multitudes more will be able to strengthen their eyes so as to be spared the trouble and expense of ever getting glasses. Eye troubles of mnuy descriptions may be wonderfully benetfied by the use of this prescription nt home. Go to any active drug store and get a bottle of Bon-Opto tablets. Drop one Bon-Opto tablet in a fourth of a glass of water and let it dissolve. With this liquid bathe the eyes two to four times daily. You should notice your eyes clear up perceptibly right from the start, and inflammation and redneaa will quickly disappear. If your eyes bother you even a little it is your duty to take steps to save them now before it is too late. Many hopelessly blind might have saved their sight if they had cared for their eyes in time. Note: Another prominent Physician to whom the above article was submitted, said: "Yes, the Bon-Opto prescription id truly a wonderful eye remedy. Its constituent Inrredlenta are well known to eminent eye specialists and widely prescribed by them. I have used it very successfully in my own practice on patients whose eyes were strained through overwork or misfit glasses. I can highly recommend it in case ol weak, watery, aching, smarting, itching, burning eyes, red lids, blurred vision or for eyes inflamed from exposnre to smoke, sun, dust or wind. It is one of the very few preparations I feel should be kept on hand for regular use in almost every family." Bon-Opto. referred to above, is not a patent medicine or a secret remedy. It ia an ethical preparation, the formula being printed on the package. The man ufacturers guarantee it to strengthen eyesight BO per cent in one week's time in many instance." or refund the money.
