Ine.--WNU Servloo. IT WORKED FOR ME MORE peDple could feel fine, be fit and regmar, if they would only follow the rule of doctors and hospitals in relieving constipation. Never take any laxative that is harsh in action. Or one, the dose of which can't be exactly measured. Doctors know the danger if this rule is violated. They use liquid laxatives, and keep reducing the dose until the bowels need no help at all. Beduced dosage is the secret of aiding Nature in restoring regularity, You must use a little less laxative each time, and that's why it ahoule[ be a liquid like Syrup Pepsin. Ask your druggist for a bottle of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and if it doesn't give you absolute relief, if it isn't a joy and comfort in the way it overcomes biliousness due to ¢on- ~ipation, your money back.

CHAPTER XIV--Continued She looked suddenly years older, the human heart and wrong thinking **I think I understand, child," she had said, In a voice that was all sad- hess. And it was Silver who had cried. By mldafternoon the sky was a sul- len, gray-white glare of heat, and the leaves of the Mlcheners' shade trees drooped like flakes of Iead. A new and sinister stillness pervaded the air a sort of hushed and unwholesome waiting. Although there was not a cloud In sight, low In the west there was a curious humid depth of blue, as though the paint from a water-coloc had run down and settled. "It's gain' to storm !" GranOma Mleh- ener predicted. Silver was preparing to leave for home when Phil Mlchener came back from Maynard. The incident at the EmeraId Bay club had been the talk of the town during the day. "Strikes me," Phil added, "Roddy ought to keep that pretty wife of his away from such places--though that's his business, not mine." "Corinne wasn't over there last night?" Silver put in. "She was there with the Rlchters0" Phll told her. Silver bade a hurried farewell and started for home. As she spurred Busty over the short-cut and through the fields, she found herself shivering with some nameless apprehensiveness that had no connection with the ap- proaching storm. Here and there alongside the grassy, almost unused road, the cottonwood leaves rustled fit- fully, as if in some secret agitation, for it could not be the glazed, dead air that stirred them. The light was subtly changlng. The effect of it was rather that of looking at an eclipse of the sun through a blue glass. And when Silver finally turned her horse into his own pasture, the western horizon had swollen into a blue-black, monstrous reef. There was no one in the yard as she approached Roddy's house. Roddy and Steve, Silver knew, were cutting hay In the south field, almost a mile away. The whirr of the mower came faintly on the dead stillness of the later after- noon. In tne driveway, before the door of the blg house, stood Roddy's car. As Silver passed it, she glanced into it and saw a large black suitcase lying across the seat. Could Corinne pos- sibly be planning to go somewhere wlth the storm coming on? She flung open the kitchen door and almost colllded with Corlnne--hatte.q and gloved, and wearing a tailored dark silk dress suitable for traveling. In one hand she carried a small leather case and her purse. Under her other arm snuggled Macbeth, her red Pom- erania~ These details Silver took in with alarmed comprehension. "Where in the world are you going, Corinne?" she asked. "Don't you see there's a storm coming up?" Corinne laughed nonchalantly, al- though her eyes flamed in reckless de- fiance. "I haven't time to tell you," she replied. "1 have to hurry .... What are you doing? Let me gel" Her voice rose to a piercing shriek as Silver seized her and forced her violently into a chair. "For God's sake. Corinne!" Silver panted. "Have you lost your senses completely ?" '~ake your hands off me!" Corinne burst out. She had gone white with fury as she struggled to release her- self. Silver dropped Corinne's arm~ and stepped back from her, aghast and be- wildered. "Are you going away with Gerald Lucas?" she demanded. "This is none of your business !" Co- rinne fumed as she sprang from the chair. "I know what I'm doing. I haven't time to talk to you---even If I wanted to !" She started again towarQ the door, but Silver barred her way. "How dare you interfere wlth me?" Corinne stammered, with something of her old imperious manner, which was to Silver merely pathetic now. "You must be crazy--" "It's you who are crazy," Silver In- terrupted coldly. Corinne seemed to regaln control of herself. "Think what you like." she said in a calmer tone. "I have never cared much about what you think of me, anyhow." She pushed back her sleeve with a trembling hand and glanced at her watch- "All I want now is to get away. That's all I've wanted from the first day I came here. I've left a note telling Roddy Le can find the car In front of Kaber's store. Let me pass. please!" Silver did not move from her place before the door. "I ~un't let you go-- like this." "Have your own way, titan," Corinne told her. "I'll go out by the, front door." ~ilver burst suddenly into tears and clung to Corinne. ,,Corrl~--I Implore you! Don't do this to yovrself! I know what life wlth Gerald will be. l've sec~. enough af it--I've been through it. Your life will be ruined. Corinne, darling-- please---please--I won't let you gel" Silver caught her arm. but Corinne, with a sharp little Jerk of her body, llsengaged herself. Her small, piquant ace" was frozen with determlnadon. "I tell you--I don't care l" she cried desperately. Her head was proud and high. "I can't let him go away alone. I realized that last night when he told me he would have to leave. I love him --and he love~ me." For an appalling moment her face became almost shrew- ish. "If I don't like the way Gerald lives, perhaps I can make something worth while out of him--and I couldn't do that for Roddy WlllardI" Before Silver could reach her, Co. rlnne had darted into the front room and out the door. Silver ran after her, sobbing, pleading, clutchlng at her in despair, but Corinne, in stony, inexor- able silence, climbed into the ear and drove away. Silver looked wildly after her, and stood for a moment with her hand pressed frantically against her mouth. She was vaguely aware that it had The Light Was Subtly Changing. grown much darker, that the earth seemed enclosed in an airless, suffocat- lag sphere. Then she stamped her foot and brushed the tears impatiently from her eyes. "Go, then--you d--d little ldiot i" she said aloud as she saw the car pass through the gateway and gather speed in the open road. Suddenly there came into her mind the clamoring necessity of finding Rod- dy. The distance to the hayfield seemed immeasurable as she went run- ning, stumbling, plunging to no avail again and again over the entangling meshes of grass, over the familiar and the treacherous ruts of a fallow field which was wavering strangely now with livid patches of shadow. She paused and glanced over her shoulder to reassure herself that she had come at least half way, when there came a sound that was a shrill, demoniacal whine, followed by a roar that stunned all thought. Then the rain came. The rain, the rain, the blessed rainI Silver threw her arms wide and laughed In sheer pagan Joy as the rich, drown- ing flood of it descended upon her. It washed away all drouth and hanger and defeat; it washed all error from from the human mind. The raln ceased as suddenly as It had begun. Presently, from the dl- rection of the Wlllard hill, Silver saw a dark shape plunglng toward her. It was Roddy. "What the devil are you doing out here?" he demanded as he came Within speaking distance. "I started out to find you--when the rain came," she replied haltingly. "We hit for the house when we saw it coming," he said. "You've been home--you've found Corlnne's letter?" she asked. "I found it," he replied in a clipped tone. "I tried to stop her, Roddy, I fought with her---but I couldn't do any- thing. Then I ran--to get you--so that you could go after her--before it was too late." Roddy smiled bitterly. "H--l. they've gone to Mexico !" he said. "That's too far away for me." "You're going to let her go?" "It Isn't as bad as it looks, kid," he said slowly. "Corinne really left me-- months ago. But--come along. Steve is out looking for you, and Phronle is having fits because you're not in the house." He put his arm about her gently and they walked in silence toward the house. To the eastward, lightning strode across the sky, and all about them are air quaked with thunder. "Don't you think too much about this, Silver," Roddy said Steadily as they went across the field. "I'm giving Corinne a chance to live the life she wants to live. I've known what she wanted--but I've never been able to give It to bet. I was a d---d fool, I guess. But there's something I want to tell you--Corinne Is really in love with Lucas. I bave suspected It all along, but when she came home last night--there was something about her --a sort of glory fn her face that I've never seen there before. I asked her about Lucas and she told me she loved him. There wash'* anything I could do about It, kid. I t,qd her she could go when she felt lik~ It." Silver's heart beat so rapidly that she could make no reply. They made their way across the field until they came parallel with Roddy's experi- mental tract of corn. The sky was lifting now as though the lid were be- Ing raised from a casket of glowing Jewels. Green and gold and blue, in a cleansed and hallowed world--P cast over the heart a spell of awe and wonder. On this, the south side of the field, the locusts had done very little dam- age. And now, after the rain, the stalks stood tall and fine, the snug, firm ears glistened, and the leaves flowed wlth beauty." Silver, her eyes urmn the field, thought of Corinne. "How could she go away from this. Boddy~and take a chance on the life--" Roddy smiled down at her. "Life's a gamble---wherever you live it, Silver," he said. "It's when you live it with someone you love that makes the dif- ference." He took her shoulders in his hands, turned her about and looked through almost a year of frustratlon, despair and defeat--into the serenity of Sli- ver's eyes. And ae~oss his shoulder, Silver saw a rainbow above the land. [THE END.] Next Week! There will appear in these COX- umns the first ins lmerlt of an absorbing new serial story... SHIFTING SANDS By Sara Ware Bassett Historic Cape Cod provides the setting for this story, as it has for most of Miss Bassett's popu- lar tales. It combines romance, mystery and humor in a manner that we know will please you. Watch for the opening install- meat in our next issue Omens for Luck Are Still Guide Superstition Rules Many Activities, Especially in England. Old superstitions remain and new ones are added. When winners in the Irish Sweep were asked to say to what they attribute their good luck, a heavy percentage replied that they had a "lucky number" to thank. (The number 13 was considered both lucky and unlucky.) Others attributed their good for- tune to spiders, "money spiders" par- tlcularly, and one individual believed he won because he had carried a piece of coal about with him since the dawn of 1933. One gave the credit to a fall of oak leaves upon him, and another wrote: "Last year was the first time that swallows built on my property, and my wife said immediately, 'Oh, don't disturb them, swallows bring good luck.'" In England superstition is not con- fined to the countryside; it Is to be found even in the center of business London. No member of the Baths- child family, for instance, will shake hands with a customer in hls own bank or place of business. The Rothschilds consider it unlucky to do so. Again, London's Bush house has eight of its pillars ornamented and one plain. The idea, derived from the ancient Greeks, is that" God alone can acbleve perfection and that man therefore could not attempt It. Practically every member of the London Stock exchange carries a mascot. One especially favored is a crooked coin. a sixpence for choice. But for the crooked coin to bring luck it must have been given to you. Sou must not have received It in change. For the last 70 years, a well-known diamond merchant asserts, the for- tunes of his firm have been Influ- enced by a large and beautiful sap- phlxe. This merchant is K. D. Parlkh of Antwerp and Bombay, and the sapphire, which came from the Kash- mir mines, was bought by his grand- father 40 years ago. The gem is named "Shanl," which means "Luck Bringer." It is kept in a special safe, on New Year's day. Once it was sold and Immediately misfortunes befell the firm. It was bought back, and all went well. t'Shanl," which originally cost $10,- 000, has gained so remarkable a rep- utation that $60,000 was offered for it not long ago.
