The answer is 13 and 21. You can get this by finding half of 34 (17) and then counting up and down simutaniously!
17, 17,
16, 18,
15, 19...
And so on and so forth until their difference is eight (8)!

Let sum of two numbers be x,y
Let x+y=34
Let x-y=8
solve x and y
2x=42
x=21
apply x=21 in equation 1
21+y=34
y=34-21
y=13
x=21, y=13
