Some tilings people do to help the
liowds whenever any bad breath,
fevcrisluiess, biliousness or a
lack of appetite warn of constipa-
tion, really weaken these organs.
Only a doctor knows what will
cleanse the system without harm.
That Ls why the laxative in your
home should have the approval of
a family doctor.
The wonderful product, known to
millions as Dr. Caldwell’s Syryp
l’epsin is a family doctor’s pre-
scription for sluggish bowels. It
never varies from the original pre-
scription vvh’ch Dr. Caldwell wrote
thousands or time-, in many years
of practice, and proved safe and
reliable for men, women and chil-
dren. It is made from herbs and
other pure ingredients, so it is
pleasant tastimr. and can form no
habit. You can buy this popular
laxative from nil drugstores.

CHAPTER II
—2—
I awoke next morning wltn n name
upon ui.v lips; a name I had heard Hie
nlghi before, "Pin l.aurier." It seemed
to me as It does still- tlie sweetest,
daintiest girl's name In tlie world. I
knew nil tiDont It, too, how Miss Flu
l.niirler. of (tie ble» eyes and tlie
block shingle, had had an Italian
grandmother; Imw tlie grandmother
had beipieathed tier u proftij and a
pretty fortune and a prettier name;
how. in consequence, Miss l*ltt was of
more Importance In her family one
of the New South Wales squatter
families -titan elder brothers and sis-
ters; Imw much Iter parents thought
of tier, and how very, very carefully
they hud brought Iter up.
Site was- one felt it in one's bones
— u very reincarnation of that gra-
cious, titled dame from historic Verona
who laid set her mark upon the Lnu-
rlcru fifty years ago. Piu, like Iter
would t>e a liouxe-mlstrcs ; she would
he a mother; sue would lie, above und
beyond all, the supreme, rare lover,
pure os sprlngwater, and passionate
as a red Verona rose from the bal-
cony of Verona's deathless girl. . . .
It didn't come ns a slun k- quite the
contrary, because I am Twentieth cen-
tury, almost all to remember that
this modern Juliet could round up cat-
tle with the best of her brothers, ntnl
owned a diamond bracelet won on tlie
public race course of liuudvviek. It
made me all tlie more In love with
her. Because, of course, that minute
when I met her eyes as I came up tlie
gangway, and knew that lay foolish
feat had won me I'ia's heart.
I suppose one Is a little mad, when
one Is asleep, to Judge by the general
craziness of dreams. I suppose, there-
fore, that one Is half a little mad,
when half awake. It was *he arrival
of early morning coffee that spoiled
half waking dreams, for me. Once 1
had drunk it, the clear cold light of
reason seemed to mingle. In Hint cabin,
with the red of growing day; to tell
me that I had better get up nnd tiatlie
and dress, and remember, of alt things,
that I was leaving the ship tomorrow.
“When you are about It," added that
chill monitor, “you might us well recol-
lect that you haven't two hundred
pounds In the world, no people, now.
who matter; no position, and no pros
peels. Put that In your pipe and
hinoke It.'
I had managed an Introduction (n
easy ship-made friendships for tlie
daughter of the l.aurlers;—) and in
Joyed Just about live glorb us minutes
of pin's company, before the doctor,
curse him, came along apologizing and
grinning nnd reminding Pia that It
wus concert night, nnd thut she was
down for Number Two. So we had
to break off arid hurry Into the star-
ing, glittering music saloon, In com-
pany with everybody else.
1 In re bid b'-n no more talk with
Pia l.aurier that nlgat; for the con
cert lasted tlie usual long time, and
wlieii It was over, I'lu's relations,
somehow, seemed to be everywhere,
monopolizing her maybe by a-. blent,
maybe not. And I should have gone
very hungry to bed, bad It not been
for tlie crust I took with me. That
crust was Pin's song. She sang part
of I Jr. a Lehmann's exquisite bird-
song ejete; sending me to my cabin
with tin* sound In my ears of my ludy's
lovely little soprano telling tlie tale of
tlie wood dove and his mate who had
nothing at all on which to start a
home, but Joyously, they put « few
sticks together, and sang—"It’ll do -
lt’ll do!"
I suppose I was vain. I suppose all
men of a certain youth and vitality
are. At any rate I thought that Pia
meant the song for me.
So, next morning, I was agog to get
hold of Mrs Kfppte, good-natured
newsmonger and lean, from her any
tiling Du,I might help me In making
way with Pia. tor I recognised, now,
that the iitars In their courses were
lighting • ii-' me. I bad or>tv one
day. n night, and half a day left; If
I was. In ttoil brief time, to forge s
chain that should In some measure

be over; tlie male Cinderella would
iiave lost bis pttntpkln couch und gore ,
home to sit In the ashes again; and I
there would lie no fairy godmother to I
find him a second chance.
Mrs Ktpple could talk. She did not
confine herself to l.aurier biography;
She stooped to a lower range, and gave

a chnncel Jinny Treacher nnd her
girls l ave the lot. How .an any ot
the I inrier crowd compete against
sea horse races? And they don’t stop
ut sea-borne racing; 1 could tell you
u tale—* She proceeded to tell It;
I can only say that the biology came
In at that point, and made me feel
rather fidgety.
Hut Genevieve, or Gin-Sling, what-
ever otio chose to cull her—was not
business. I wanted to hear about
sonic one else.
"Are the l.aurlers going far?" 1
asked.
"Clilnn and Japan; getting away
from the Sydney cold weather. They
go somewhere every winter, and al-
ways take a daughter with them. It's
I'lu's turn tills time. They married off
a daughter lust year nnd 1 daresay
they'll get rid of Piu this time."
Get rid of Pia!
“Is she engaged?” I asked, looking
the kindly gossip fair In the face.
“Pia? I suppose more or leas; a
girl of tier sort lias always some one
on a string. Th*.. wns some talk of
Sir Richard Fanshaw, the flying man,
but I Imagine ‘he mother was against
IL Not enough title. He's fairly rich
—promoted a few successful com-
panies In New Guinea, nnd so on—
but he Is only a war knight, without
much family behind him. I'lu ought
to tie at least a countess. Y'ou know,
a girl like tlmt simply must marry
Into the very best set; she would be
a fish out of water anywhere else.
"There's tlie second bell." said Mrs.
Hippie, and got up. "If you don't
hurry," she added warnlngly, "you
don't get the best of the fruit." But
1 did not hurry, I didn't care If I
never saw fruit again. I'la l.aurier
and her mother were coming up the
promenade deck.
I thought the elder Indy looked at
me coldly. She was not a scrap like
Pia, save In those small resemblances
of carriage, shape of head nnd poise
of limbs that run through families.
Jinny Treacher had called me "It
bravest man In the world," but, under
that look of Mrs Lnurler's 1 felt my
courage crumble, and my heart turn
to water.
The woman of hard won position
may he a snob, but never can lie
w- ik; she has sold her soul, and col-
lected tlo price, and the price Is vvlmt

Mrs. I.uurier pierced me. Hm a
man may light when wounded I an*
swered tier look by getting up from
my seat, und leaking a step forward.
What I meant was to Join Die morning
walk of herself and her daughter.
I knew Piu now; I bad a rigid to
speak. . . . And, gods of youth
and beauty, but she was ensnaring,
Dial pale-blue morning on Hie seal

It was "Gin Sling," She had g-me
to her cabin, exhausted, after vva
li :i• ■ i '--J tin- strip, nnd bo one had seen
tier again Hint evening. Now she
apH-ared, bright ax a penny at a show,
wtili her wonderful red h r teased
out Into a kind of halo, tier thin body
eased in some painted, vi>.d rag eyes
and teeth sparkling, glass bracelet*
clinking, an uuklct and a bell on It
Jingling, feet— da near's feet they were,
small, lint too muscular and spread
--pointing mid springing, as If they
moved to ItivlKilile music, t think, m>
did Jinny Trencher through tier life;
she danced, marched, moved, to music
of tier own; ruled Iter days so far
ns they were ruled -by laws not made
of man. I have my reasons for
handling tier tenderly; I know what
you do not, yet of Jinny.
Naturally, I hud to answer her.
And naturally, too, the mother mid
daughter moved on, and I was left
alone with Jinny Trencher.
Shis did not sit down. She put both
feet together, and Jumped high Into
the air, two nr three times, with In-
credible vivacity. "That’* Imw I feel,"
she said. "I always feel like that
when the snn shines. Can't live iu
the dark. I was horn In Sydney,
where It's daylight when It Is day-
light, and I've got tlie sun in me
hones. Singapore's where we're hound
for; I and my friends. 'Tlie Chines#
Butterfly,' company number three,
one of their girls lias married and
one died, and number wants to leave.
So little me and mine come In, be-
cause tlie managing director of the
company's a friend of ours."
I was not Interested; 1 was raging
over the loss of my chance of speak-
ing wit li Pin—but you never knew
Gin Sling. If you tHink one could stand
beside her, see her look Into your
eyes, and remain Indifferent. Shu
went to the head of any man, ns swift-
ly us the drink after which she had,
most uiipropriutely been named. She
went to mine. Hut 1 didn't cure. I
knew I should be sober ugnln. There
was that In Hie blue eyes of Piu to
solier me after a dozen of Jinny'*
cocktails.
And It came Into my mind there
nnd then—1 who hail never wanted to
marry before—that tilts was vvlmt true
marriage might mean. Something that
could bold a man in spite <>f himself,
In spite of a world of Jinny Treachers.
Certainly. Best.
Gin Sling, however, had no tnlnd to
be neglected. "Take me for a vvulk,"
she suld. half shutting her eyes and
shooting fire at me from under heav-
ily Mai ked lashes. She hud beautiful
sensuous eyelids, round and deep as
white shells; they flickered constantly
as she looked at you. She wns one
flicker from licud to foot; a human
flame. . . .
I marched with her round tha
decks, and If anything could huvs
made tue forget I’la and her mother
down below, that progress would have
done it. It was like walking with
royalty, to walk with Generleva
Treacher. Men shot looks of black
envy, women glanced Jealously aside.
And 1 realized, what perhaps I IihiI
not understood before, that yester-
day’s Incident had made me something
of a celebrity; something worth the
throw of a liubdk -rebi. f. IV*
strolled nnd talked, 1 don't know what
about. I didn't realize how long we
had been walking, till I saw Mrs.
l.aurier come up from breakfast again.
If she had looked at me chillingly be-
fore, her ryes were f--cozing now. Shu
swept Jinny Treaclier with a glance
that should have turned (lie girl to a
pillar of lee. I think Jinny felt It ;
hut In sheer bravado, she turned her
head, slopped nlnumt In Mis l.au-
rler's path, and remarked detlnntly—
“Well, here I am. What do ycu think
of me?"
The main companion doorway was
Just beside me. Like a coward, I
slipped through it. and lied. I don't
know to this day vv hat happened; I
only k tow that as I hurried down Dm
staircase. I saw Mr*. Laurlei pa.,4-
lug on, undisturbed.
