The Middle Ground By MARION RUBINCAM

"Billy" Hitt is Divorced in Paris

MISUNDERSTANDING Chapter 63 But Claire advoided the subject of Jim Clarke. All she would eay was Jim is perfectly all right. Luther had no reason to be jealous of him." Instinctively, 'her fingers went to a great sapphire ring she was wearing, a ring Mrs. Talbot had not seen before, a ring obviously too expensive for Luther to have afforded. It was a sign of the growing cleverness of the older woman, that she noticed that slight action of Claire's. Ordinarily it would have meant nothing. Now 6he connected the thought in Claire's brain that unconsciously sent her hand to touch the ring Jim had given her.

With this knowledge in her mind, : Mrs. Talbot began again. I "It seems to me 'hat if Luthtr ob- j jected to him, with or without reason.

the least you could do would be to not to see him." Claire pouted. Jim had meant a lot to her. He had given her presents, pretty things she adored; he had taken her off for long ridles in his motor, and good naturedly, had driven her around town in the afternoons while she went shopping or calling. She liked to hear the soft purr of the engine, it sounded like a gigantic, contented kitten while they waited for the traffic block to break. She liked to be in the car when the traffio policemen at the big cross streets touched their caps and saluted George by name that made her feel enormously important. And she liked to see the long, low motor waiting outside the shop, and lo have Jim stand around making amusing comments while she tried on

hats or held up her pretty hand for the attendant to fit a glove. The sales girls were always so much more respectful to her when Jim was along: they fairly fluttered about him as well as herself, and brought out all their prettiest things, showing them to him first and asking his criticism, and smiling respectful appreciation of his witicisms. And Claire liked to say languidly, when she had seen everything there was on display, and made her purchases "Yes, I'll tak it with me. Just have it carried out to the car, will you?" She thought that marrying- Luther meant giving up this delight. For it

was not only luxurious and pleasant to !

have this good looking man go about with her, it also meant more than his companionship. He was sure to make her a present of some of the pretty trifles she spent her afternoon selecting. And he took her to tea at one of the usual Fmart places where the . iheatrical folk gathered, and where there invariably fell into a delightful party of friends. Then there was an hour or two hours of tea, and talk, and cigarettes, gossip

and more tea and fancy little cakes f by the hotel's French chef, while thej day darkened and Broadway sprang j into glitering lights while she. Claire,

! was pleasantly conscious that this aft-1

ernoon Jim was her property ana tnat j the "other girls'' were slightly jeal-j

ous. Some of this she tried, suddenly, to ;

tell Mrs. Talbot. But her only reward was "What a waste of time!" As for Jim. one afternoon he ran around with Claire, another afternoon with Maizie Powell of lhe Midnight Follies, and another with Helena Gray, a graduate of a school of dramatic art, who w as already making a name as an emotional actress and who was very serious minded. "But I did give it up for Luther," Claire announced.

"Not much of a sacrifice," Mrs. raibot responded. She could not understand that to Claire's butterfly life, this sort of thing was necessary for existence. For an afternoon she lived the life of a rich, carefree "society woman" ds she un

derstands that term. She was supreme-1

HAS HE FOUND A CURE FOR ASTHMA? Simple Frrarriplion Giveo InMant Relief. Makes Breathing Easy.

Tn New Eneland. where Bronchial

Asthma Rrnnr'hitis and other diseases

of the throat and lungs are so prevalent, remarkably successful results are being- reported following the use

j of a new form of treatment known as

Oxidaze, a pnysician s presi.-i iiii.iuii. Oxidaze is a harmless but powerful combination of curative essential oils concentrated and compressed into a small tablet. One of these tablets slowly dissolved before going to bed seems to have the effect of releasing the muscular constriction of the bronchial tubes, opening up the air passages and regulating spasmodic lung action. This enables the patient to breathe easily and naturally while lying down and to get a comfortable night's sleep. So much interest has been shown that local druggists, including A. G. Luken & Co., have secured a small supply and state that they are authorized to refund the money paid for the first package if in any case this new treatment fails to give relief. Oxidaze is pleasant to take, contains Vio harmful, habit

drugs and is not expensive.

This makes their test an easy matter.

has the same high quality tho sound wheat is scarce

TLOUR is no better than the wheat from which it is milled and sound wheat is scarce this year. But the quality of Valier's Enterprise has not changed a bit. It is still milled from nothing but the creamy white hearts of the choicest strong gluten hard wheat. An untimely spring freeze and frequent showers during the late harvest made such wheat very scarce. But a little is coming to market perhaps one carload in a hundred. Every bushel we can find we buy. It costs much more than the run of the crop and that makes Enterprise cost a little more than ordinary flour. But it's worth more. Enterprise always produces fine-textured, fullflavored baking and never causes a failure. It goes farther, too eight or even less cups of

Enterprise equal nine of ordinary flour.
