Temptat
I Ted Billings?
"Boy Howdy!" I finally managed
to exclaim when I saw that the
strange visitor was Ted Billings.
"Gosh, you gave me an awful start."
1 continued. "I didn't recognize you.
Ted, you're so squicy."
He caught my shoulders. This was;
the second time that night they had
teen held firmly. Curtiss Wright 'had,
pressed his hands to them a few mo-1
ment3 tfeore, but this time the touch!
was different. Ted's grip was so intense.
"Ith awright, Thallie," he stammered,
"all that innocent, baby-doll
stuff ith over. I love you, you HI'
devil!" he concluded, at the same time
trying to force his kisses upon me. I
had never seen Ted drunk before and]
be was revolting. A bit of Marjorie
Chenorweth's philosophy came across
to me at that very moment. "Laugh,
Bamtoina," she had told me in one of
her heart-to-heart confessions, "men
: cant stand to be made fun of in their
icve-making. They want to be serious
and a sense of humour is sometimes
more protection to a girl than a chaperone,
or even virtue!"
"Where'd you get that pre-Volstead
i '-gg, old Scout?" I laughed up at
Ted Ballings. "Come off, Teddy, you
aren't a sheik and this isn't the Garden
of Allah. It's Atlantic Beach and
much nicer."
"This is no joke, atop that informal
kidding," he commanded, and his
lingers sank deeper. "You've' had a
pretty good time playing with fhe,
hut that don't go to-night. D'ye hear,
you Ml' beauty?
He crushed me to him and I felt
a wave of repulsion that was overwhelming.
Our shadows made weird
distorted blotches, tike gfants on a
string, in the moonlight.
"Don't be so squirmish," he admonished.
"Wassa matter, Thallie.
you never have minded a lil' loving.
Don't be so stingy with your kisses, i
Ahl savin' 'em for your architect'
friend," he sneered. "The rest of the
hunch aren't dumibells, Thallie: wej
ell knew you were pnllin' a pettin'
party."
J flinched, and the picture of Curtiss
Wright paraded before me. I could1
not help comparing the 1)wo men.!
Curtiss Wright hadn't even permitted:
ME to kiss him when we were play-|.
ing a silly game earlier in the even-?
Ing, and while Ted's words wounded
me deeply, I couldn't bear having
Curtiss Wright accused of something,
lags ura a nhnvP rinintf T hntflH tViP in-I
justice of his implications.
"Listen. Ted," I 'tried to summon
a tone of raillery, "you're tight and
you're not being a good sport, either.
Yau can't find this in. the book of j
a^fauette. It isn't being done this
sfltaon!" and I smiled faintly, until I
noticed that he wasn't paying the
slightest attention to what I was saying.
Then I struggled desperately, but
he twisted my head up with his arm
and forced more of his offensive kisses
upon me.
"Ted, you dogi" I screamed at him.
"Let me go or I'll holler!" There was
.no need now of pretense of humour
"Go ahead, and holler your head
Off," he suggested, grabbing me closer.
W?:' ."No one can hear the pretty lady."]
Ted panted. 4Tve got you! Wheel
"What a lit* mermaid!"
"Tell you what let's do, Ted," making
my voice as natural as possible.
"SH down, we'll have a good old 'fag'
and talk it over." .
Sf-:, ."Talk, hell," he laughed harshly.
"Come on, now. 1 il' Thallie"?I'll;
never forget the disgusting way he;
r- slid my name?"be the life of this
H party. Don't chew wanna love me?"
lie didn't even look like the Tel
- Billing* 1 had .ilway* known. Gone
K r; was the good-humoured boy with j
whom I had laughed and'danced and;
> IrcUcked since childhood. 1 looked;
f': '. across the lonesome sand dimes and
rcalited the situation and for the
first time in nty life I was frantic.

"Stuff (Von' pro. Thallie, you're j

toe at my shoulder strap and I cootd
hear the taffeta splitting.

"If Your Pain Is There,
What YouNeed Is a Good
Tonic For the Kidneys"
The kidneys are the scavengers and
they work day and night in separating
and the poisons from the blood.
Their signals of distress are easily
recognized and include such symptoms
as lumbago, backache, depress
sions, drowsiness, irritability, headaches,
dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
dropsy.
People are realizing more and more
every day that the kidneys, just as
do the trowels, need to be flushed
occasionally. The kidneys are an
ehminative organ and are constantly
working, separating the poisons
from the blood. Under this continual
anH n??rn^fiia1 arlinn um
apt to congest, and then trouble
starts. Uric acid backs up into tine
system, causing rheumatism, neuralgia,
dropsy and many other serious
disturbances. It means that you are
a victim, of uric acid poisoning. Then
ask your druggist for Anuric (anti
uric acid) and you will very soon become
one of hundreds who have been
helped by this powerful enemy to
uric acid.
Dr. Pierce manufactures Anuric
(kidney-backache) tablets and you
