The Way the Anxious Vigil Ended The vagaries of one's brain defy any analysis. 1 have contemplated this truth many times, but never have I had it borne in upon me more forcibly than in the three hours of my vigil over Junior which followed Katherine's watch of an equal time after we had* fought and comquered bis terrorizing attack of croup. While Katherine was watching and I was supposed to be sleeping, 1 had been unable to get to sleep until nearly half of my allotted time was over, Yet now that 1 was supposed to be wakeful, it seemed an absolute impossibility to hold my cyes open. I tried every device I knew and final- ly by sheer will power succeeded— so well, indeed, that when it was time for Katherine to waken 1 was as wide awake as I ever had been in my life. It was a pity to her, T thought, and though I"Teared her displeasure, 1 decided to continue my vigil a little longer, at least until Junior should waken. But almost on the stroke of the Hhour she had named, Katherine opened her eyes and looked at me with a comprehend- ing grin. “Smarty ! Smarty! “Thought you wouldn't invite me again to this party, didn't you? You forget that I have trained myself to waken almost on the minute I set in my own mind. But I don't tell everybody that. It's a trade sccret, so don't give it away.” “I'm On the Job Now." . “But there ish't the “slighest rea- #on for you to get up now,” I pro- tested even as I marvelled again at the bright cheeriness of her face, wondered again if 1 had dreamd her unguarded betrayal of misery when she thought I was sound asleep. Yet the echo of her low wail: “Oh ! God ! my empty arms !" scemed yet to echo in the corner of the rcom. And when I looked into her eyes I fancied that I saw the strain behind the bravery, and decided that I had not been mistaken after all, and that she was hiding real heartbreak behind the cheery mask to which she had accustomed us. “Nor is there any reason for me to sleep when it's my trick, either,” she said, and then Mother Graham's voice, erisp, efficiént, yet low-toned, she quoted. ference to the elder woman and Mother Graham—in Dicky's parlance “ate It up.” “Of course I'll promise,” she said, “but what about Margaret? She looks worn out.”” “I was just coming to that,” Kath- erine replied with a mischievous look at me. “S8he is to be exiled, for bed, or breakfast or both, which- ever she wishes.' But she is to get herself away from here at once."” I smothered the unworthy pique which is the thing mothers have to fight when other hands than their own care for their children, and smiled back at my friends, “1 couldn’t sleep if I tried, now,” T sald, “so I'm going to take a quick shower, a cup of coffee and a brisk walk., But the time I come back, perhaps Junior will. be awake.” “No doubt he will, Katherine drawled, “and you'll be able to see that we haven't amputated any of his fingers or toes.! But her eyes were tender, and I knew that her.raillery hid comprehending sympathy with my feeling. “You'd better produce the full com- plement,” I threcatened, and then turned to my mother-in-law. “Is Katie up, do you happen to know?" “Up” she ejaculated. “T should think she is! She has breakfast all ready. I've just had mine, and when vyou go down tell her to keep things hot for Mrs. Bickétt until she comes. Or would you like a tray now?" She turned to Katherine solicitously. “I want nothing but another snooze,” Katherine said drowsily, as she turned over and thumped her pillow inte shape. “I'm not a bit hungry and any time this morning will do for my breakfast. So long, Madge. Say good morning to the cows for me.” - Se Your Feet. A pair of tired feet is most dis- couraging. But: with a little effort It your feet wnnt to pernire--lfl them. - Use a borie acid solution . or any mild germicide for any fobt odor. The odor is caused by the develop- ment of bacteria, which casily suc- cumb to a germicidal lotion. People who are flat-footed and those who have bunions requirg the special services of a competent ortho- pedist, Bunions are caused usually by tight shoes. Wlat feet are sort of a natural tendency in some indi- viduals, but there are other causes. You will notice there has been no mention of corns. There's a reason. Take care of your feet anmd you will have no corns, BY SISTER MARY MEAT LOAVES, Meat loaves fill an important place in the summer diet. They are per- fect for an impromptu picnic if sliced cold and arc quite as satistactory for the home luncheon. d While pork is taboo in hot weather this pork loaf is delicious and offers a welcome change from beef and mutton, Ham Loaf, One and one-half pounds fresh ham, 1% pounds cured ham, 2 eggs, 1 cup fine cracker crumbs, water to moisten.

Add water to make moist enough to shape in a loaf. Bake in a roaster in a moderate oven for two hours. If a roaster is not at hand bake in a deep long pan, cov- ered with buttered paper. Veal loaf is not as rich and moist as the ham loaf, but is perhaps a little more delicate and better suited for very hot weather.: Veal Loaf.

The vaudeville bill will show four very fine acts and features Dot- son; vaudeville's lightning stepper, who «delighted audiences here last year with his wonderful dancing.

There is romance in it—and a ‘healthy, red-blooded ro- mance at that—there is an abund- ance of rodlicking Irish fun, and, last though not least, there is always a generous offering of these lilting Irish meiodies that haunt one long after the performance is over and the simger has left town. As the hero of these Irish. romances, Walter Scanlan is ideal. With a fine personality that fills the eye while he is on the stage he makes a fine picture of the Irish lad of story and song. . An excellent actor, he is always natural and per- fectly human in his portrayals of the Celt on his native heath. “I'Y?URT‘H MUSKETEER,” LYCEUM H. C. Witwer's famous story of ac- tion, thrills and comedy, “The Fourth Musketeer,” has been put into the - movies and with Johnny Walkér in the role of the chivalrous prize fighter opened before a delighted audience at the Lyceum this afternoon. -The opening gcenes are filled with action, cspecially the onc in which Brien O’Brien, pugilist, refuses to “throw" his last fight but instead proceeds to pgive his oppengnt a sound 'lacing, then loans ¥him the money_he needs.

The pic- ture gets its name from the fact that Brian, after reading “The Three Mus- keteers,” endeavors to live as they did.
