THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1930 PAGE SEVEN LOVE SHY - ~ Instaliment Twenty-Five are Janet's parents, so the two girls are staying in Adelaide's big expansive apartment. Janet has also for a friend Jimmy's sister, Mildred Warren, a portrait paint- er. "We Were Meant for Each Other" As the day wore on Janet grew extremely restless. "For heaven's sake," Adelaide ex- claimed after lunch, "find something to do. You're as nervous as a witch and you make me nervous, too." "I'm sorry," Janet said penitently, "I think I'll take a walk and maybe go over to our house, I haven't been there since mother and dad left for the country, and I promised her I'd stop in once in a while to see how things were getting along." "As if anything could happen to that old dump," Adelaide returned. "When my father and mother comie back I'm going to make them move." "Jimmy will be here for me 3 or Janet went on, "I'll probably be back before he gets here, but if I'm not tell him where I went and that I'll be here shortly." "All right," Adelaide yawned, "but why you want to waste time with him--" Janet escaped. Riverside Drive glittered and swam in the heat of a July day. She walked for several blocks, then took the subway over to Breoklyn. Her home looked dusty and forlorn, and the grass needed wa- tering, and the shutters at the win- dows gave the place a deserted ap- prarance. Janet let herself into the Fouse and stood staring at the ugly narrcw hall and front room. Me- chanicafly she opcned the dows, pushed the shrtters back, left the door cpen so a breeze might come in through the screen. Then she went up ta her room, With steady hands she unlocked the drawer in her desk where she kept her dream book. Very slowly she turned its 'pages, looking with affec- tion.at the pictures and articles about heme-naking that she had pasted in. "Mine for the taking if I want 1," she thonght. Westlake would give her any 'kind of home she wanted She knew that. He could do at, he would do it and take pleasure in see: ing let 1¥elong dream come true un- der his hands. -But--she looked at her 'shabby room. She could give: ap her dream--1life with Jimmy he hard, but it would be full of love, full of joy in each other. Which was the bigger thing? The long rays of the setting sun reminded frm thar the afternoon was passing. With a sigh she locked the dream book away and made a tour of the house. Same old warped kitchen with a leaking faucet same old dining roam with ts worn carpet and round gilden oak table; same old front room with its shiny sofa and its stiff chairs. "Oh, ¥ can't stand it, diving like this the yest of my life!" Janet moaned. "Why, Jimmy and I couldn't even have this, much room. We'd have to live in a two-room apartment--we"d have to go into a crowded ncighborhood---" Some one was at the door Some sone called her name, "Janet Fanet" very softly, not to startle" her. "Jimmy!" she stood at the screen staring at him, "Scared ?" he asked, smiling. "How did you know I was here?" "Oh, 1 usually walk past you: house won my way home from * werk, and when I saw the windows open | knew some one was herc--figured it nimst Barbara Webb Copyright by Public Ledger be you come to see if everything was all night. May 1 come in?" Janet unlatched the screen. "I promised mother I'd come over while she was gone to see that thiugs were in good shape," she said tonelessly. Jimmy nodded and put his hat down, "Gosh! but it's bot," he said "I'm Going to You Listen" Janet Jooked dully at him. This was the way he would come bone to her night after*night, hot and tired and disheveled. This was the kind of place he would come to -- an ugly cramped little place, and she would have to take care of that and do ber work at the office, too, For Janet knew they could never live on what Jimmy earned, She looked at him again--~how young he was, how strong, how--" "A penny for your thoughts," he said. ' "They're not worth even that," Janet answered. "What do you suppose mine are worth?" he asked, "More than mine, 1 hope." "They're the same thoughts I've been thinking for three months now," he told her, his voice deepen- ing, his face taking on a gravely hap- py expression, "Do you know what they are, Janet? They're mostly about you. About you and me-=ghall 1 tell you about them?" Janet backed away from his eagerly outstretched hand. "Yes, tell them," she said, immy looked curiously at her face. ot're not very encouraging," he said lightly, "but--" This time he caught her and held her firmly by both shoulders, "But I'm going to make you listen this time, Janet. love you." The silence in the shabby house grew painful. The man and girl stared at each other as though they were strangers, 5 "I love you," Jimmy repeated. "I've loved you from the minute I saw you. Ive wanted you, waited for you. I think, since the day I was born. We were meant for each other, Janet. | love you--tell me that you love me." For one delirious instant he thought she was going to obey. In that in- stant her lips parted, her eyes lighted with that look that every man watches for in the eyes of the woman he loves, her slight body swayed to- ward him and her hands strayed to- ward his shoulders to return his em- brace. Then before the miracle could happen, the miracle that was to change and shape his life to new meanings, her body stiffened, the light died out of her eyes, her lips closed firmly and she freed herself from his astonished clasp. "Janet! Janet!" he cried, his arms hanging limply, his face twisted with pain. "What is it--oh, what is it-- don't you love me--" Janet's answer came from lips that felt dry and harsh, and even to her- self her words seemed cruel and sharp. "No, I don't love you, Jimmy." "But you did love me. 1 saw it in your eyes. What has changed you? Tell me, Janet. I have a right to know that. You did love me, didn't you, Janet?" "No, 1 have never cared for you that-way. "But, Janet I want yom to marry me--I"ve been planning for it--I want you for my wife------" He was bewild- ered, hurt, confused. "I don't love you. I have never loved you. I do not mean to marry you," Janet said with a cruel finality there was no mistaking, hating here self for the lie, believing it to be the kindest way to end this scene "I don't believe you," Jimmy flared. "No?" "No, 1 don't--=why, Mildred said you were in love with me--I've just put off asking you, telling you I loved vou, until I felt you were ready--oh, Janet, don't treat me 'this way, I can't stand it--it isn't fair--tell me the truth--say, 'I love you, Jimmy'" he came to her pleadingly, begging for her love. p "Pm Afraid" He came to her agamn, took one lifeless hand in his, stood silent, wait- ing for a sign from her, None came. Her face was pale, her eyes downcast, her whole attitude one of listless re- gret. Jimmy felt very sorry for her, very gently he put his arms around her and drew her into the shelter of their embrace. He rested: his cheek against her. hair, held her in that tenderness for a leng time, She did not stir, Her yielding nearness gave him hope. His arms tightened about hier, he turned her face up.to his. Suddenly all the longing of the 'past months. overcame him and he kissed her mouth, straining her to him with all his strength For one ecstatic moment she an- swered his kiss, then like a creature wild with terror, a creature fearful of a trap, she tore herself away from "No, fio!" she cried. "No, go away. 1 won't have it--I never want to see you again." Most Heat CONGER for the 'S high grade fuels are each selected for low ash, ing and effi long burn. high heating .

"Um not afraid of you," she said slowly at last--"I'm afraid of this--" she included the whole house in the wave of her hand. . "But 1 don't understand--just what is it that you fear?" "Oh, sit down," said Janet wearily, "sit dows and I'll tell you what I am afraid of, since you can't seem to un- derstand unless I put it into words for you."

S5.--Supporters of sorb considerable ion of fav- orite holdings in this morning's ses- sion of the Toronto Stock Exchange Sales were not exceptionally heavy but the flow was steady with the re- sult that all group movements were generally in a downward direction, Local ulators and investors paid small attention to the trend of escurities at New York being rather more anxious to watch the develop- ments in domestic problems. The western wheat tie-up has been re- garded as a definite sore spot to many lines of business. Yesterday's action 'by the banks had been anti- cipated for the last few days and probably accounted, more than any other factor, for the weak trend pre- vailing on the local exchange in re- centy sessions. The response of prai- rie provinces to the call for support by the pool was well received and undoubtedly bridged a dangerous sit- uation, The swi fowed closely, Raveaidl bo of wheat prices was fol- The "news" was ex- pected to prove deadly ammunition in the hands of bear forces but the market was given good support from the opening bell.

Teck- Hughes continued its advance, breaking into new high ground on early sales at 6.60, up 30 pointa from the preceding close. Profit- taking developed at this level and one o'clock prices were fractionally higher at 6.30. Nickel and Noranda each gained 75 cents a share on active bidding with noon prices ranging steady at 39% and 42%, respectively.

TORONTO DOGTORS MAKE NEW BISCUIT Health Biscuit Contains Essential Vita. mins Toronto, Feb, 5.~Something entire- ly new in the line of foodstuffs, and a developiaent which has unlimited possibilities. for good in the improve- ment of human health is being put on the market as a result of the work of a group of Toronto physicians. After a great deal of experimenting combined with the results of many years research in hte th of nu- teition, Drs, F. F. Tisdall, T. G. H. Drake, Pear! Summerfeldt and Alan Brown, all of the Sick dren's Hospital, have cvolved a biscuit which tains five ouc of the six known vitamins. It is not a new discovery in one sense.

The waterfront scers are sure a terrible fate befell her because some | of the 48 cadets aboard captured an} albatross before they cleared from | the South American port. i They draw a close parallel between | this fine modern ship and the tale! related in Samuel Taylor Coleridge's | "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" whose cumbersome craft became "aj painted ship upon a painted ocean" | because of the murder of "the sweet! bird that made the breeze to blow." | Receipt here of photographs mail- | éd from Buenos Aires and showing nbers of the crew of the Koben- | n on deck with their capture, was | sufficient to convince all the veteran | scafarers of Copenhagen that the | mystery never would be explained b mortal minds, Only the storm fiends Only one hopeful clue developed. The inhabitants of Tristan da Cunha, a mountainous group half way be- tween the Rio Plata and the Cape of Hope, told a strange story of seeing a derelict ship like the Koben- havn passing the islands at the Leight of a terrible gale. Dwellers in the islands rarely see a ship more than once a year but this onc attracted unusual attention. They said she seemed deserted, with her rigging mn disorder. She way tearing along seemingly without rud- der control, like another "Flying Dutchman." / But a big Swedish barque has since reported that she passed Trist- an du Cunha that day. She was a four master, while the Kobenhayn carried five sticks. No one really knows, however, whether the island- ers saw the Swedish ship or the miss- ing vessel, GERMAN PAIR STILL ON LONELY ISLAND Scientist and Woman Com- panion Living "Natural Life" Berlin, Feb Karl Ritter and ¢ panion were ooked foods 1 of the southern waters could tell all, | wer according to the sailors. rote: ve thee Ancient M From the fiends that thus !-- y lookist thou cross bos I shot the Wh a hellist And it would work 'em woe.
