THE CALL OF A WOMAN 105 AFTER HIS RELAPSE OWEN PAWNS HIS BEST CLOTHES Softly she called his name — the tender diminutive that none but they knew. Eagerly she pleaded with him to come back to her, and slowly, struggling against the weight that seemed to bear him down, Owen Brown came back from that depth to which he had twice descended. Like a little child, he looked up into the patient, pleading face, and smiled. "Annie," he gasped, weakly, "I have been sick, very sick, have I not?" With a quick little gesture her arms went about him. ' ' Very sick, dear heart ; but you are well again. You have come from the Valley of the Shadow ; and, oh, Owen ! — it was at my call that you came, my dearest ; that you came back — to me. ' ' HELLO ! I see I've caught your eye — You hesitate ere you pass by — No doubt you'd peek behind the scenes And closer view those MAGIC SCREENS; Or chat with favorites on the QUIET? Well, all I can say to you is : BUY IT! N. B. : This verse is merely to attract your attention to the Popular Player Contest, announcement of which will be found on page 160.
