Anaheim, Calif., March 26, 1931 Final Installment They could hear the rending, grinding sound of Maggie sobbing bitterly, deeply, as a child sobs and as if her heart would break. The three exchanged glances, and presently 'Elizabeth said slowly: "It seems like we have the worst luck of any family in this city." Her mother took the theme up readily. Pop, up to this point, had been silent, as Pop generally was. Now, suddenly, he rose to his feet and dashed to the ground the striped tea cloth he had been using as a napkin. "Maggie!" he shouted. Immediately she was in the kitchen. "Maggie, we've had enough of this!" said Leonard Johnson, in a loud, authoritative voice. "I can't stand no more of it, and I ain't a-goin' to! You take that towel there and wash your eyes and fix your hair. And, Liz, you pack your sister some cloak. She got seventeen minutes—right—to catch the stray goin' to catch it. She married on board to Minnie in San Francisco or Los Angeles morrow or next day—you can here, Ma. Quick, now—with I phone for a taxi! "Len, are you crazy?" Ma began royally. But Pop, crazy or not, was at least unafraid. "You quit talking Minnie," he said sharply, "and get up and stir your self." Pop said tenderly, solicitously, to Maggie, guiding her to the sink, switching utte. "I've seen 'em twenty minutes late!" "Oh, go on, then—go on!" the girl said feverishly. "I can't go no faster than this, lady!" the driver said, hurt. "There ain't many of these cars can jump over or under trucks, you know. You'd do better to take you little suitcase and run for it." "Do that Maggie!" said the newly authoritative and decisive man who was her father. "I'll stay with him dear. Look out where you go—ah, God bless you, my darling!" "God bless you—and thank you. Pop dearest!" she whispered. Then Maggie was running—running like mad toward the big arch entrance that said, "Pier Seventeen." A baggage boy sad caught her bag and coat, and was running along beside her. "The Davenport Line, miss?" "No—the Allegria!" "Oh——" And his feet stopped, and hers, too, and they stared blankly at each other. "She's sailed, miss; she went out on time, this morning, the day said. That's her—out there in the day." As in a dream, Maggie stood still, on the rough, thick, splintery boards of the dock, and looked through the great arched opening, and saw the vessel, balanced like a beautiful green swan, not moving now, but far out an blue water. "The pilot's going to drop her any minute, now, miss. Ain't that a shame!" said the baggage boy sympathetically. The girl did not stir. Her eyes were fixed on the Allegria, her hands And suddenly, in their own steamer's decks, there was sponding commotion, and boy, with a desperate and upset upon his face, broke through down a companionway to the bride railing where the pilot's hand and shouted: "Wait a minute, down got to go back! Don't take down—wait a minute!" Then—so quickly that after the whole long voyage, with ful young bride and groom a reminder before their some of the passengers o member in exactly what occurred—then the flying reached the pilot's tug, and had descended the rope ladder girl had sprung from the lace tug, and there was a dous of "Maggie!" and "Joe!" and young things were in arms, and crying—not but one else was crying, too. They stood there in the for whole minutes—minute and the word looked on, and wiped its eyes, and knew nor cared. And it was the great Allegra actuarily whistle and the attune tug that Joe put his arm about garet Johnson and said, or happily, without moving eyes from her expusite face: "Come on, darling, we've to do—we've got to start to get married, and have lunch and everything!" got seventeen minutes—to go right—to catch the train to gain’t to catch it. She married on board to San Francisco or Los Angeles, morrow or next day—they there, Ma. Quick, now—with I phone for a taxi! “Len, are you crazy?” Ma begin royally. But Pop, crazy or not, was at least unafraid. “You quit talking Minnie,” he said sharply, “and get up and stir your self.” Pop said tenderly, solicitously, to Maggie, guiding her to the sink, switching on the cold water, the furious glare in his eyes as he looked at the other women in curious contrast to the gentleness of his voice when he addressed her. “In this envelope is my half-mouth’s pay, dearie,” he said—“You keep your mouth closed, Lizabeth, till I give you leave to speak!” Pop interpolated fiercely—and you can get yourself some clothes first place you stop. Hurry up there, Ma—the taxi’s lible to get here any minute. “Len—it seems like I’m going to failt,” said Mrs. Johnson, paturing pathetically in the act of rushing Maggie’s black skirt dress and her new clothes into a suit case and adding ‘Lizabeth’s best nightgown and the Chinese wrapper she herself had won at a fair. “Well you faint, then, but let me get Maggie off first!” Len said briskly and heartlessly. “Len, don’t yell that way!” Ma said weeping as she put on her black-velled hat. “And we ain’t going to miss you, Maggie, and we ain’t going to slump.” Len interrupted the frightened chorus to say loudly. “Now, you come on out—pit your glovees on in the taxi—we ain’t got but fourteen minutes.” Laughing, crying, but always clinging tight to this newly found and amazing parent, Mary Margaret had only time to leave a hysterical goodbye with the dog, and the cat, and the beloved, despised, shabby kitchen, with its cooling coffee and congealing sausages and lump dish towels and greasy sink. Then they were all four jammed into a taxi, and were racing through the Saturday morning streets, past the church, and the market, down the schoolhouse way—among the warehouses— Their talk was incoherent—inconsequential—monosyllable. “Can he make it?” He says he doesn’t know. Depends on the traffic on River street.” “This ain’t exactly an ideal weddin’, dearie.” “啊, don’t Pop. You’ll make me cry!” “Driver, we goin’ to make it?” “How much time have we?—Lean forward there, Pop, and see can you see the clock at Rubenstein’s?” And then, down outside the big free-market, suddenly the agony of a halt. Is in a dream, Maggie stood still, on the rough, thick, splintery boards of the dock, and looked through the great arched opening, and saw the vessel, balanced like a beautiful great swan, not moving now, but far out an blue water. “The pilot’s going to drop her any minute, now, miss. Ain’t that a shame!” said the baggage boy sympathetically. The girl did not stir. Her eyes were fixed on the Allegria, her hands clasped. Somebody touched her arm, and she looked up and saw it was Joe’s father. With him was Joe’s mother; she had been crying, and his father’s face looked grave, and his lashes were wet, too. But Maggie did not cry. She gulped, and her wan little face twisted into a smile as she said simply: “I was going with him. I couldn’t —I couldn’t bear it. But it seems—he’s gone.” “You were going with him!” his father said, sharply. “Here! Where are the launches, boy? — Mayne’s launches — they’re somewhere around here! This girl and boy aren’t going to be any use apart. Lillian,” he said to his wife, smiling, yet blinking tears from his eyes. “Let ’em both go off to Japan and console each other!” He was hurrying them along the dock, and Maggie found her hands filled with big green bills from Joe’s father, and found herself kissing him, and liking the firm, fatherly embrace, and—much more amazing!—received a perfumed powdery, half-crying kiss from Joe’s magnificent mother, too. She was helped into a dancing little launch, the dirty surface of the water was bubbling close beside her. They were cleaving a straight track toward the big liner, and Maggie, leaning over the bow of the launch, was straining toward it, was clapping her two hands over her head to attract its attention, to hold it one minute—one half-minute more! The pilot’s tug was alongside, ready to cast off from the sheer great side of the steamer; a rope ladder dangled from the high steerage deck of the one, to curl loosely among the hatches and marlinspikes of the other. And everyone who could find a place at the long rails, first cabin, tourist cabin, steerage alike saw a launch racing out from the city, and a small girl standing bare-headed — in the launch, an auricle of gold blowing about her head, and her hands clasped high above it, like the hands of a small martyr at the stake. Come on, darling, we’ve to do—we’ve got to start to get married, and have lunch and everything!! And then they negotiated and plank ladder, and they made an nise across the deck. “We’re going to have some time this afternoon, excitedly, and proudly and to the lingering groups that couldn’t disperse in the fast fascinating drama and comedy.” And you’re all invited! “Oh thank you—thank you!” Maggie whispered. And Joe showed her boat and writing rooms and dinners and his Japanese baby in tea and his own big cabin—with its bath. “You’ll hear the bugle soon,” he exclaimed, as the ocean air began to blow over and she careened slightly; colour was whipped into Ma and the gulls and the cidar farther behind—and farther—and farther behind. “You that rocking? You’re a worng to love it at, “I shouldn’t wonder if it life, Joe,” said Mary Margaret THE END The lion and the lamb went together again. This time they sniffed by John Bull and Gaunt. The number of telephone Dominion of New Zealand has nearly 40 per cent since 1923 Their talk was incoherent—inconsequential—monosyllable. "Can he make it?" "He says he doesn't know. Depends on the traffic on River street." "This ain't exactly an ideal weddin', dearie." "Ah, don't Pop. You'll make me cry!" "Driver, we goin' to make it?" "How much time have we?—Lean forward there, Pop, and see can you see the clock at Rubenstein's?" And then, down outside the big free-market, suddenly the agony of a halt. An officer's imperative whistle and a blue-coated figure approaching. But Ma, even though speechless, was not entirely without rescuing. She dismounted from the taxi, met the policeman, and as an interruption and crowd gathered, and before that officer could speak, fainted from sheer emotion, heavily into his arms. "She's all right—go on," pop said in an undertone. Maggie sat back on the seat, holding Liz's hand, beginning to breathe again. "Pop, can we make it?" "We could, dearie, if nothing else happens," Pop was beginning doubtfully, when another whistle, this time a soothing long breath, as of relief, interrupted him, and the driver, muttering something unintelligible that sounded like a prayer, turned in to a curb, stopped the car, and uttered aloud the disgusted word, "Flat." Lizabeth Johnson had sprang from the machine, hailed another taxi, pushed her father and sister into it, and shouted feverishly; "To the Allegria. Dock Seventeen. Quick, now! I'll stay here and pay this man, Pop," she said, hurrying them on. "Good-bye, Maggie darling, forgive me if I've been mean to you, and have a good time, and don't worry." Then Maggie and her father were rushing on again; they had reached the piers at last, Pier Eleven, Pier Thirteen—still so far to go! And they could see the big clock saying that the hour had come and gone. It was three minutes past eleven. Maggie turned deadly white, but she managed an agonized smile of reassurance for her father. "That's all right, Pop. We did our best!" "Maybe they didn't call on the min- BAYER ASPIRIN is always SAFE Demand this package Bayer Tablets Aspirin Genuine Beware of Imitations GENUINE Bayer Aspirin, the kind that doctors prescribe and millions of users have proven safe for over thirty years, can easily be identified by the name Bayer and the word genuine as above.

Hints for the Home By NANCY HART TANGERINE RECIPES "Oh! for something to eat that's different!" sighs the lady of the house. "Have you ever tried tangerines?" suggests the fruit man helpfully. "This is their season and they are plentiful." "Tangerine" is the trade name for a variety of Mandarin orange, a Chinese fruit supposed to have received its name because only the nobles or Maridins were rich enough to buy it or because it was ranked among the noblest fruits of the Flowery Kingdom. In America, it has been nicknamed "kid glove orange," because of the ease with which it is peeled and the fruit segments separated and eaten. It is a smaller fruit than the common or sweet orange, with a flavor that is different from the latter fruit but that is sweet and delicious with an especially pleasing, aromatic, tangy quality. It is attractively clored, being a deep reddish orange. California's citrus groves include some plantings of tangerines, which are now in season, the harvest months being January and February. A plentiful crop this year makes prices moderate on this delightful fruit novelty. Tangerines offer an unusual treat to the woman who wishes "something different," for they are not only delicious eaten out of hand as one commonly thinks of serving them, but they blend with other fruits to make many flavorful beverages, cocktail, salad and desert combinations. The sprightly flavor of their juice and rind, moreover, may be used for an unusual flavoring for cakes, ples, breads, biscuits, frostings and fillings, just as orange and lemon peel are used. Pears Peel and core cooking pears and simmer until soft in thin syrup to which the juice of half a lemon has been added. Drain, reduce the syrup by rapid boiling, and add to it two tablespoons of grape juice. Pour over the pears and serve lee cold. Orange and Apple Better, better even than the popular Waldorf salad is the combination of oranges and apples. Slice four oranges, add one apple which has just been coined, peeled, and sliced into thin slices. Squeeze a little orange or grape juice over the apples as soon as they are sliced to prevent discoloring. Serve on crisp lettuce or water dress with French dressing. Corn Muffins Sift together one cup of flour, two teaspoons of baking powder, one-half teaspoon salt, two teaspoons of sugar; add one and a half cups of yellow or white cornmeal. Beat one egg until light and add a cup and a half of milk. White window shades that have become soiled are a problem unless one knows this simple method of cleaning them. Unroll the shades and spread on a sheet on the floor. Scrub with a soft cloth dipped in magnesium and water. Treat both sides in the same way. Allow to remain on the sheet until dry. A very tasty salad dressing is made simply by adding catsup to taste to mayonnaise. Beat the mixture until creamy and smooth and pour over hearts of lettuce. The salad is not only colorful, but has a piquant flavor and is made in a jiffy. SAME PRESCRIPTION HE WROTE IN 1892 When Dr. Caldwell started to practice medicine, back in 1875, the needs for a laxative were not as great as today. People lived normal lives, ate plain, wholesome food, and got plenty of fresh air. But even that early there were basic physics and purges for the relief of constipation which Dr. Caldwell did not believe were good for human beings. The prescription for constipation that he used early in his practice, and which he put in drug stores in 1892 under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepain, is a liquid vegetable remedy, intended for women, children and elderly people, and they need just such a mild, safe bowel stimulant. This prescription has proven its worth and is now the largest selling liquid laxative. It has won the confidence of people who needed it to get relief from headaches, billiouness, flatulence, indigestion, loss of appetite and sleep, bad breath, dyspepsia, colds, fevers.

The same principle which urges people to patronize the local merchant who has his money invested where it serves them most, should impel the merchant to advertise in the newspapers of his community. This newspaper boosts Gary and its people, institutions and business. It is a fixture with a heavy investment and dependent, for its existence as a booster, upon the patronage of the community—Gary, Ind., Post-Tribune. Motorists Presist in Violating the Law The statistical bureau of the California Highway Patrol received 7321 abstracts of conviction or ball forfeiture from the courts of the state during the month of February and in addition a total of 1426 abstracts on cases dismissed. According to E. Roymond Cato, superintendent of the patrol these records tend to indicate the extent of the violations of motor vehicle drivers committed against the California vehicle act. The record represents perhaps 80 percent of the full amount, some of the courts failing to report their abstracts as required by law. Among the convictions were 4500 for various speed violations, 434 were convicted of rockless driving and 4000 were apprehended for faulty headlamps. There were but 65 drivers during the month convicted of driving while intoxicated. More of the abstracts came from Los Angeles county. That county supplied a total of 3580. Alameda county with a total of 534 was second Riverside county with 499 was third Kern county with 498 and Ventura county with 422 were fourth and fifth.
