ored for l*oris uniil she slipped otit
tln»e and time naain to bow tier pretty
thanks and kiss her snow-white 3n-
rers. Ho knew she tmiHt* he weary
and it annoyed Tommy that she must
stand there with that sparkling smile
oft her lips and In her eyes the Joy of
.treat conquest for. thul noisy public
to admire.
If T>orls Deeue had been a little
nonentity on fhe stage he might have
made an effort to become acquainted
with tier mid win her a way- from her
profession, hut to one who seemed des
tined to reach the helghf of her pne
tension Tommy felt the odds too uiUcii
against him.
So he had decided that the best
ridng for him to do was to forget
Thirls. e
It was not going to he easy. TomttV/
was not the kind of man who loves
♦rffen and lightly. And Doris, the
Huffy bit of white thistledown, with
her fair curls and laughing tdue eyes,
drifted through all Ids dreams, .cling
ing. beautifully appealing.
So, tiefore Inking pp his oflice career
in the great steel business of hist fa
ther, Tommy started on n six months’
travel cure and madcap bis.mind that
%e would return to New York heart
*nd fancy free.
Tommy reached England during the
month of .June. The days were g hit
dull, hut the change to glorious sun
shine made Ascot, the Derby and Hie
river life a thing of Joy. lie learned
to punl up and down the river quite
tike an old hand and met many a
rhu rail rig, gaily docked damsel—with
whom lie passed suruU'y- aud varied
iiwrs.
ft was Ethel Danvers who. while re
cflRittg gracefully among various lined
Modilons at the otlier-end of his punt,
who asked him IJ^he was going to the
theatrical garden party.
'‘Sure. I linve to see everything I
*^n In the next month and then work,
rmlti-ss, but interesting, work for me.
HI take you and we'll do all the stunts
«liey 11live to offer. Is it a go''"
“Sure!” laughed Ethel, mocking hit
lowrican expression.
5?o It was thnl Tommy found himself
In the Royal hospital grounds at t’ljel-
«*a enjoying himself Immensely. Every
r ype of girl, in every type of garb,
from modern Eve to ancient Turkey
«nd all the stars and minor constella
tions of the stage were there.
Ethel was beginning to think she
might spend the rest of her days at.
Tommy's side, when, standing in fr>>!cP'
**f «* tlanoe Hub which they were about
to ontei-, slip felt ids arm tighten
against his side. • * j
He was reading over the list r of j
st.uge favorites with whom on,*-- could j
tmve a fov trot-YwrTuTIf a ctdvvn. Init |
only one name stood out lo Touimy in •
bold ix’ltef—-Doris Decile.
H<* trjed to make his von e soirnd \
n.'Rumi as tie turned to Ethel.
"Are these names ail famous over
here? I—I don't know many of your
English stars by name.”
Ettiel read the list. 'All pretty
intteh in the public eye. Tb;U Doris
Deette Is I'rmii yout part oi.ilte world
*n«i has taken us quite t*> storm with
her dancing i'eme on, let's go in.
I'd Just Ime to dame once witii .lack I

from houie." !
S*.» together they went iti. .Ethel
was out" on itie Moor with ilie tall .la< I; [
before Tommy could make his way to »
Doits. 'I
it was she who began to talk.
f l am from New York,” said Tom- j
«py, feeling tike a Mr-I class fool for j
Tlwr sjtake in his voice. "I used to 1
watch you dance nearly three nights |
euf of the week—tt bit soft, wjisp’t |
It?’ — ” • j
l»oris Uwv'fced up a ,1 smiled straight ;
into Tomuiy's eyes. y
l am glad to meei you," stie I
said wistfully. "I'm so liomesiek for
New York and Iroitie f« Ik's that 1 could
Just cry about It." She.shyh glanced
again at the big, honest boy and knew
•be liked hhri- liked him very, very
much; v "j wonder- 1 wonder if you
would come out to see me some time
tnd just take me opt ion a bus or up
the river or or, jnsi any place away
from theaters? I don't like dancing,'
but I have to earn my living some way.
tVmld you?" ^
‘•Doris Peene," said Tommy, .softly,
nitli all Ids awkwardness gone, ."I
could do anything yu the face of the
earth that you ask. Wr'tl have a pic-
aic up the river Sunday—all bo our
selves, and every day that you spare
me we will lunch together. I nm sail
ing for home on the 'JTth, and if I can
manage to tell ypib heaps of things
that I have wanted to tell you long
before this—perhaps y ou will sail back
too." •
Tommy Webster had never expected
to have his picture lu the London pa
lters. but when he sailed away with
the famous- little dincer—Doris Deene
— as his wife it was no wonder that
the new sniper photographers were
' busy while the happy couple stood oa
deck. '
- Paternoster Hew.
Paternoster row' is u street In Lon
don. near Si. I , aiil’s cathedral. Early
In the last contufy It was the sent of,
the groaE publishing houses; hut, lu
later years, these moved away to the
neighborhood of the Strund atid Pic-
eadllly and left the "Row” to the book
sellers of the metrijpoils. The origin
of the name is variously ticeounted
for. Aeeording to some, the street
was no called from the rosary, or
paternoster,’ makers that, dwelt there;
-others, however, say that ft was so
named because all funeral proces
sions, en route for St. I’uul's, < > oin-
nieuced their paternosters no entering
this street, tiud continued to say them
until they reacted the gate of the
cathedial..

pain. I would grow so nervous
that! could not hold a cup in my

to hold my coffee for me to

bad condition that I had to spend
about three days in bed every

Then one day, said MrS. Lam-[and then,, even, aaw, just, as a

Cardui and the experiences, of
some women who. had been
helped by it. “I felt that Cardui
might help me if I tried it,” she
98 pounds to 115 and felt better,
than I had in years. I took six
bottles right along* and found it
a splendid tonic. My suffering
was partly due to a run-down
condition and the Cardui stimu
lated my appetite and helped me
to gain - the sthength I needed.
