I n the Tea C\ip the full charm of "SALADA" B88« Is revealed. The flavor Is pu.re» fresh and fragrant. Try It^ Black, Mixed or Creen Blends. BEGIN HERE TO-DAY. Dolly, a Kovernt'BS, is in lovt* with her p<or i^uitoi', Robert Durham. When Nisrel Brelherton, who has monoy, falls in \ovc with hsr, Dolly Bivcs up Kobort and nvarries Nigel. The maT- riajfo proves an uiihappy one. When war \h declared, Nigel is (find to enlist, lie U-aves Dolly in the care of hia friend, Mary Furni%'al. Mary coims to live in Dolly's flat. Holly j.'o<-.- for a walk niid l>y accident moetg KoUrt r)urhani. He te'.lh her fh-\t he has proKptred and that now he has plenty of money. When word comes that Nigel has btcii killed in uctioii, Dolly marries R'.bul in Ixindon and Kails with him to America. Nigel'.s older brother, hiivid. -jalti to »<â- <» NiKe'.'w widow. He mistakes Mary for Dolly. Mary is n«hnmed to tell of OoUy'H marriage, .so lets David think that .she is Nigi'l's wife. David gcxo from NitfeJ's home to call on an old friend. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. David stepped out on the path. He looked up at the dark face of the hou.'^e, and a litt!« reminiscent smilo curved his lips. "Yesâ€" ; his is the house." He paid and dismissed the man, and wetit up the stcjiB to the front door. By the llijht above the porcU he glanced at his watch. It was nearly nine. He he.-itated for a moment, then ran); tb^TK-ll. After all, there were excuses for a late visit when u man had just re- turned to I>oiidon after thrc« years' n').<«iice. Fisher would not mind. The niiiid who opened the door was doubtful if her ma.ster woiiTd Kee him. She took Hrelherlon's card reluctant- ly. After n moment a door of one of the titting-r<x)m.M was flung open, ami u man came eauerly into the hu)i. "iJavid. my dear old fellow I" He seine'l lircthertori by b<jth han<l.'< and livacuctl him into the light. "1 had r.o idea you were in England. Whoi did you land? Why didn't you let me know?" "I only landed this morning. I have been nowhere, except â€" " He broke off. A woman had follow- ed Henry I'isher into the hall. She was Kolden-hnircd and beautifully dressed. Her eyes were bright with engernoiis as they met David's. "Oh, I am so glad to see you again! I couldn't believe it was you! But, oh, Duviii, poor N'igel!" They were in the drawing-room now, anii Kisher had taken David's overcoat. There was .-» little .silence. "I ju-L couldn't believe it when we heard!" Oora Fisher v::-.n on, in a •hocked voice. "One hears of men being killed 'it the Fror.t every day, but it vc-er.is impossible that anyone we know c-.ild be amongst them. Oh, David, it niu.'-t have been a shock!" "Yes." Somelliiuif in her almost exagger- ated pity jarred on him. He looked relieved when hor brolhor came back to the room. "I ought to apologiM) for »uch n late visit," David was saying, "but there irere several matters I wanted to Dpe.ik to you about." He hesitated. Dora sprang up from the deep chair where ehe was fitting; there was a Httle frown between her eyes. "You mean that you want me to go away? You areTiorrid, when 1 haven't see you for three years! I'll just give you half an hour â€" no more. And, David, you are going to stay £He night, aren't you? It's too late to get down to Red (J range, and I simply won't let you go to a hotel!" "If 1 am not in the way â€" " he began diffidently. She laughed. "We are only too glad to h.^ve you*." She left them, shutting the iloor after her. Fisher was mixing whiskey-and- soda at a side table. "It's good to see you, David," he said affectionately. "I only wish it might have been in happier circum- stances. Poor Nigel I'* "I wanted to speak to you about him. Why didn't you tell me he was married " Fisher flushed a Ijtlle. "My dear chap, how could 1? Nigel wa.s so anxious to k?fp it back; seem- ed to think you'd be aimoyed and cut down his allowance." "Why should I have been annoyed?" Fisher ;hrugged his shoulders. "Well, his wife was hardly â€" j-ou know what I mean." David thought of the woman he had left alone in that empty flat, with the tears still wet on her face. "Hardly what?" he asked, with cur- ious inflection. Fisher looked uncomfortable. "Well, it's awkward to explain; but, if you must know, .she wasn't the sort of woman Nigel ought to have mar- ried. .She was a nursery governess, T l>e!ieve, and she married him for what he could give her; there's no doubt about that. 1 only saw her once." He pushed a whiskey-and-soda across to hi.s friend. "What was she like?" David asked. He took up the glass, holding it quizzically to the light. His manner was very <|uiet â€" -almost disinterested. Fibber .shrugg*,^! his shoulders. "I.itt'e auburn-haired thing â€" one of the dolly sort." "Auburn-haired?" "V«>si, reddish hiiir; <|uite young â€" al'out twenty-or.'-, I should say. I had lunch with them toon after they were niairieil. She ditln't like me. Oh, no, she didn't say so; but she let me see it from her manner." There was a ."jilence. "Of lourse," David sai<i then, "I must <lo something for her. Nigel had nothing except what 1 allowed him. I w^anted to ask your advice." Fisher raised his brows. "She won't be a widow long, from what 1 saw of her," he said, rather' dryly. "You i-eedn't be sorry for her, David." He turned to a paper-strewn desk in ' a corner by the fire. ! "I've a photograph of her here somewhere. Nigel sent it to me when they were moneymooning. Care to see it?" "1 shj'Uld like to." Fisher rummaged in a drawer for a moment, theti came back to where his friend stooJ. "Here it \r," he said. CHAPTER X. THE INCKIMINATING I-HIITOCRAI'H. Brethert(.n took the photograph fmm his friend's hand, and half turn- <mI aside, l>en(ling nearer to the light. Tlvere wan a little silence; after u moment he looked round. ".So that's .Nigel's wife?" he <iaid quietly. "Ye-." Fisher was l>ending over the paper-strewn desk. "Showy-liKik- irg girl, in n «»y," h' went on casu- ally. "And out for all she could get. I imagine." He trlanced up apologetic- n'ly. "You Bskml my opinion, didn't \ivu?" he submitted. "Certainly I did; thanks very much. May I keep this, or do you want it?" 'Kfr>p it by all means." Brelheitoii put the unnmunte.-l photograph in his jxwket, and .â- ^at down in one of the big chairs by the Are; there was • litt'e furrow Itetween his brows. "Did yi/U wver go to my brother's flat?" he «*k«d presently. "No. He asked me, but I don't faiicy his wif«- wou'd have been iin.v MInard's Liniment used by phytlctana. too pleaned if IM taken advantage of the invitation, so I never went. Mrs.' Nigel haa had u friend living there with her for aomo time now, I be'>i*v« â€" since the war broke out." "A friend?" "Yte; I never met her, but Nigel t<rfd n:e â€" when he canu to say good- bye, poor lad-that hia wife had made arrangement* for a friend to stay with her during his absence. "A friend of hi8, also?" "I believe so; in fact, I know that it waa. He spoke most affectionately of her. What was her name, now â€" Feme â€" Furnival â€" a Mi&a Furnival. He gave me to understand that he had known her before hia marriage." "I see." There was u little pauae. "And this lady â€" this Miss Furnival, is tit the flat Btill, with my brother's wife?" "I )>elieve no, but I cannot powltively Bay. I called once, just after we heard of poor Nigel's death, but there was nobody at home, and one does not like to intrude, so I have left things for you to see to." Ho drew up a chair close to David's, and looked at him aflfectionately. "It's good to see you again," he said. "I'm glad to be home, too; there's no place like England, after all, say what you like. I'm goTtig to settle at Re>d Grange now." "Good! Nothing could please me bet- ter. David, you'll l)e wanting a wit*." Bretherton laughed. "I! {k>od I>ord, what next? I'm a born bachelor. No. I'd always thought Nigel Mill Ilia tsout> should have the old place, and now he's gone â€" " He broke off heavily, with an overwhelming realization of all that his brother's death really meant. Neither spoke for a few moments, then Bretherton roue- ] ed himself with a half sigh. "What am I to do with Nigel's I widow?" he asked, rather constraln- I edly. "I'd usk her to come and keep i house for me at the Red Grange If I j thought she'd accept, but â€" " I Fisher laughed rather scornfully. I "Oh, she'd accept right enough; no- i thing would suit her better. She was i always trying to get Nigel to ask you to allow them to live there; she fan- "Sha was my mother's sisier, you know." ' i David sat forward a little, staring into the fire and frowning. "Nigel's wife would be all right, there with Aunt Florence," he said i again, hesitatingly. "Vm .sorry fer the girl, Monty, in spite uf what you aay. 1 feel that I have a sort of duty to her." (To be continued.) T "I've a photograph of her hero .so.iiewhere!" j cied herself as a sort of I-ady Bounti- 1 fill, I can tell you. Don't .suggest it, ' David; don't ask her. It will only l)e making a rod for your back." "Vuii think so?" "I'm sure of it. .She's not the r.oit of woman you could ever tolerate about the old place; she's â€" well, she's vulgarâ€" she'd jar on you â€" the way she dresses, the wjiy she talks. .Slie smokes cigaret.s â€" " Bretherton made a little gesture of disgust. "She do-fs II luitidred and one little things like that," Fisher went on. "Harmless things iti themselves, but they go against the grain all the same. Besides, you couldn't possibly have her down at Red (irange without some sort of a chaperon." "You're forgetting .â- Xunt Florence; she'll come back, of course, if I go. She's pari of the old place; I couldn't imagine it without her. You remem- Imt her? .She looked after us when we were youngsters." "You mean Miss Varney? Of course I remembtr her."
