Grief, love, despair and their kindred
emotions stabbed him with poignant force
at times, but the touch was superficial
He felt as deeply, and the feeling passed
as quickly as with a child
Excepting his friends among his coun
trymen no one but Lindener ever ap
proached him The artist, who had gone
downhill rapidly. since the woman’s
death, seldom failed t<» come to the house,
at least once a day It was a sort of
pilgrimage to the shrine of a dead proph
et. it gave a keener edg«- to his grief,
bin hr preferred thai feeling to the dull
miser?, that he suffered when away.
And Tokoramo was the only human
being to whom he could talk freely It
was not that the Japanese sympathized
with him openly Indeed, he frequently
rambled on his talk for hours while To
koramo sat at his work scarcely hearing
ore word in ten. But it was a relief to
him to talk about It al’ And through all
of his talk there was the querulous, in
sistent "why’’ of the child that rebels
against the seemingly blind bludgeon
strokes of hate.
Dr. Omayi was as regular a visitor as
Lindener He watched the breaking man
as closely and carefully a.- he would have
watched n fever patient in the hour of
the crisis He superintendent the meals
and personally administered the stimu
lants he prescribed, to be certain that
Tokoramo look them properly and at the
proper time Rut with all this he daily
told Joshakawa that he doubted if Toko- ,
rarr.o would hold out to finish his work.
Omayi was to return to Japan with To
koramo’s manuscript His passage was
booked for the first of the month, and
there was still work to do on the day
before He and Joahawaka slayed with
Tokoramn all that day and kept him at
his task When his head drooped through
sheer weakness, the physician always
managed to bring it up again with his
byperdermic needle
Txmg after midnight the others came in,
watched in silence, ready to help in any
way that help might be needed, and as
the shadows crept into the room Toko
ramo suddenly sank across the desk with
a low moan
Joshawaka leaned over and shook the
limp shoulder impatiently
"Work’ Work, my friend!’’ he ex
claimed "You have still much to do!”
Nearing the End.
Tokoramn only moaned and made no
effort to sit up. Joshakawa turned to the
doctor with a quick look of appeal, but
T)r omayi shook his head this time.
Joshakawa muttered an angry exclama
tion
"But the work must be finished!” he
protested, with another shake of the
spineless figure. "We have been waiting
two months for this Make the entry,
Tokoramo! Omayi starts for home in the
morning and he must take the work with
him!”
Hr shook Tokoramo again and spoke
exactly as hr would tn a stupid boy. Dr.
Omayi laid a hand on his arm
"He must rest." he said, gravely "The
strain has reached the breaking point.”
• Hut I • »an not. insisted Joshakawa,.
feverishly. The doctor* shrugged his
shoulders, bent over Tokoramo and felt
h 1 pulse Then he gently drew him back
and peered into his upturned eyes Hr
stepped hack, raised his eyes to Josha- i
kawa s anxious ones and shook his head I
again.
"It is enough!" he said, firmly. "He i
must rest for a few hours. It has been
too much for him!"
Joshakawa starlet! to break out with
protests but the doctor coolly turned his
ba-k and began preparing a dose of med
icine Mutering angrily under his breath
Joshakawa accepted the inevitable.
"Come" he said to the others "Let us
go and leave him for a while We will
return later. Hut. remember, doctor, the
work must bp finished tonight You had
better remain with him ’’
With a last look at his patient, the
doctor joined Joshakawa at the door of
the ante-room •
‘ I tan do nothing more for him at
present.” he said, quietly. "Rest is the
only thing that will help him It would
be better to leave him entirely alone ”
"Is there any hope for him after
wards?” he asked. Dr. Omayi avoided
bls gaze.
"His heart Is very bad." he said, eva
sively. "Almost a complete collapse of i
heart —and brain. The strain of these last
two months would have killed a bullock."
The whole troop passed out and the
sound of the closing door seemed tn
arouse the half-conscious man at the
desk He sat up slowly and exclaimed in
a barely audible voice: "Dr. Omayi!”
Then twice over; "Joshakawa! Josha
kawa!”
His eyes wandered vaguely about the |
big room and at last he seemed to real
ize that he was alone With the great
est effort he succeeded in geting to his ,
feet, and by holding on to the desk and '
chairs, reached the divan There he sank |

Little Annie Donaldson, five years

Mr Charles Owens, twenty years of
age. who resides with his’ parents at
East Pome Ga . expelled a life-sapping
tapeworm, head and ail complete, after
taking Quaker Extract only two days
and h< i.- well aft< i -uttering fm years
for any long rest. In less than half an
hour he sat up with a start, but so
great were the mans powers of recuper
ation that even this short rest revived
him wonderfully. But be was still groan
ing and muttering to himself when he
rose and slowly moved back to his desk.
Here he sat for a few minutes with his
eyes closed and. picking up his brush,
set to work again
Eor a quarter of an hour he worked,
painfully but steadily, and then there
was onther interruption. Lindener came
in.
There w pre dark Circles under the ar-
’ist s eyes. His clothes were soiled and
bad apparently never been pressed His
loose tie was half untied His hair was
uncombed and an inch or so too long.
flood evening, my friend," he said,
huskily, as he walked across to the desk
with his hand heir! out. "No. no! Don't •
rise How are you tonight?”
Tokoratno’s w’orn features twisted
themselves into a parody of a smile.
"I have mj work to finish.” he said,
with a feeble wave of his hand over the
manuscript before him. Lindener sighed '
deeply and headed for the liquor stand 1
"Always at your work!” he exclaimed,
between wonder and peevishness. "What
concentration! 1 wonder hi you In my
early days I had some concentration, bin
nothing like this and time wears it
away, my friend, time wears."
He sighed deeply and drained a small
glass of cognac. Tokoramo. crouched
over 'bls desk, apparently did not hear. '
The brush was once more t racing Its end
less path bark and forth across the 1
white paper. Lindener sank into a big
chair and went on, as much to himself
as Io Tokoramo: <
"I don’t see how you can do it Here <
in this room with that- that one opening
off it " His gaze wandered to the por
tieres "I shopld think her ghost would
be with you would protest against it.
And yet— 4 the dead never harm the llv
ing It is the living who do the mis
chief. The dead are harmless. They
are kind gentle Their memory enno
bles. relnes Only the dead can be loved
with a pure, true, patient love. The
living are faithless only the dead are
steadfast, only the dead are true."
In spite of himself Tokoramo groaned
aloud Instantly Lindener was all con
cern.
"What is it, my friend?" he asked anx
iously "Do you suffer much'.’”
Tokoramp raised his head, but his eyes
were closed. Hr waved his hand to
ward the windows.
"Open a window, my friend," he begged
in a weak voice "It is air I want ”
Lindener hastened to a window and
threw It open
"It is oppressive.” hr said. "The cool
dawn air will do you good.” The window'
opened to the east and the first faint
Hush of the dawn was tinging the hori

and nearer the desk. "Rut that hoy in

The Georgian’s Great Proverb
Contest Is Still Young
Anyone Can Enter Now and Be in Line for One
of the Great Prizes That Are Offered for
Correct Solutions. Why Hesitate When the
Chance Is Yours?
The Georgian’s (treat $16,000.00 Proverb Contest is still in the vigorous
hey-day of its youth. Don’t entertain the idea for a minute that the costly, un
paralleled prizes which The Georgian offers to all are out of your reach simply
because some of the puzzle pictures have already been printed. These prizes are
just as.easily within your reach as they were on the day the contest began.
The Georgian, moreover, has provided every facility for you to get a run
ning start in the contest now. next week, or any time you "get the habit, and If
you start today, the habit is yours. The back numbers of the contest are kept
in stock at The Georgian office, and are sold at the regular rate of The Daily
Georgian—2c per Vppv. You can get as many or as few as you like. Many are
ordering complete sets to date, which show's that the interest of our Great Con
test is still spreading—that the vital attractions of this unprecedented competi
tion are being realized and appreciated by the NEW contestants all the time.
The back numbers are accompanied by the answer blanks corresponding to
each picture. Once you obtain the back numbers to date, you are right up with
all the earlier starters. >
This isn’t a rave. Time has
nothing-to-do with it. It is just a
competition of cleverness. The
ones who solve the greatest num
ber of puzzles correctly will lie
awarded the prizes. THINK OF
ONE T-HOUSA ND M AON IFI -
CENT PRIZES. AND YOE NOT
IN THE CONTEST. WHY NOT
WAKE FP 'I’O THIS CHANCE?
Are they not worth more than
the little labor of mind which is
required 'to solve the greatest
number of prizes correctly, the
number to wiinplete the set. which
is 75?
It may be that we have laid
too much emphasis in these col
umns upon the great value and
beaqty of the leading prizes. Cer
tajnly. there ct not a word to re
tract. for there were never more
magnificent rewards in a contest
of this kind than the handsome
prizes we are offering. It must lw
understood that all the prizes in
<»m- contest maintain the high
standards in their class, and will
be something to be proud of after
winning.
The popular Proverb Books are
still going like Coney Island frank
furters. and many of the contest
ants write us that they find them
most useful in solving some of the
proverbs. All you have to do is
to have some idea of the proverb,
then turn to the little book, which
is alphabetically arranged, and
there you have your answer right
before your eyes. What more
could you want in a contest of this
kind ? The contestant who has one
of these books knows that some
where within the back and front
cover is the solution to each of
the puzzles in our contest, and this
in itself gives confidence and en
couragement.
The new contestants will find
them a great aid in facilitating the
solution of the back numbers. Os
course, we have some idea of the
puzzle picture, and if we have
something to make us sure, we will
have no trouble in winning one of
the prizes.
Os course, it is the best plan to
start before the very verge of the
(‘nd of the contest is reached. You
will waul to give careful thought
to some of the pictures, and should
allow yourself plenty of time.
All things considered, there
couldn’t be a better time to start
than this very day to begin your
march toward one of the high
standard prizes of our contest.
Read over the list of prizes care
fully and see for yourself whether
or not you want to try for one of
them. Os v(»urse. you will want
the $2,000 in cash, and if yon do
not win this, why not try for some
of the ot her prizes ?
Do not put it off any longer.
Start today, and the goal will not
seem far awav.
