you need to convert variable to integers before addition

var Sum = parseInt(val_1, 10) + parseInt(val_2, 10);

Update:

If no radix argument is provided or if it is assigned a value of 0, the function tries to determine the base. If the string starts with a 1-9, it will be parsed as base 10. If the string starts with 0x or 0X it will be parsed as a hexidecimal number. If the string starts with a 0 it will be parsed as an octal number. (Note that just because a number starts with a zero, it does not mean that it is really octal.)

You need to convert the strings to (decimal) numbers.

var Sum = parseFloat(val_1, 10) + parseFloat(10, val_2);
