A table covered with a red cloth stood against the wall, and beside it in & rocking chair with scariet cushions sat the presiding genius of the room, whom 1 had known only as the somewhat taciturn wife of the genial old jani- tor, She was & fat old woman with an unwieldy body, and & face otched with lines which, when I had first seen her, 1 had interpreted as those of pain, This surmise had been con- firmed later by her gdrrulous hus- band, who did an occasional bit of heavy cleanihg for me, and who had bemoaned the “bad palns” from which his wife suffered. 1 had deduced rheumatism, and now 1 had proof of my diagnosis in her swollen feet. Cased in woolen stockings, they rested on a cushion before her, while a pair of old-fasH- loned “carpet slippers,” ‘large cnough for a man, lay beside her chair. A Kindly Suggestion She greeted my unexpected ap- pearance at her door with a smile which it up her pain-twisted face. “Come in, Missis Graham, and plcase excuse me,” she said, simply. "My feet arexery bad today. I schust took my slippers off, for I couldn’t stand on my feet any longer. Did you want Mr. Schwartz? He must be around here somewhere, Sit down till he comes.” “Thank you,” I said, promptly drawing a chair nearer her and sitting down, for I saw she would be more at her case with me scated. I do want td see your husband. He has some apart- ments this morning for a relative of mine,” “Yes, 1 know,” she interpolated. “He told me. Of course 1 shouldn’t #ay anything, but if I were in your place, I would take the one on the same side of the house as you are. The woman who has that to rent she jss fery clean about her rooms, while the other one on the other side—vell J mustn't say anytings, but 1 can't help having eyes! And I said to Schwartz, you were too nice and kind A lady to get into' a place that you wouldn't like, But of coure he has to show all the place to anybody that asks, that's his job, you know,” she added a bit wistfully. “What Was It You Wanted?"” “Of course,” 1 agreed heartily, *and 1 shall look at both of them. But I am sure I shall be very glad to take your advice, and thank you &0 much for giving me the hint." A flush came into her faded cheeks, and she looked at me with grateful eyes. I guessed that few cal- lers came into her life, and she was making the most of my visit. “It’s no more than I ought to do,” ghe said. “It's hard for a young thing llke you, with no experience, to know all about rooms like these.” Woman-like I felt my heart warm to her at the absurd compliment. But I did not take the time to con- tradict her. “It's awfully good of you to help me,” I said humbly, “I've been won- dering, since T saw your lovely kiteh- en, if T couldn’t make some arrange- . ment with you to help me out in an- other matter.” She shot a sudden keen look at Letter From Leslie Prescott, Care of the Secret Drawer, | 1 hardly knew how I got home,| authough I must have been con-' scibus enough of material things to drive my car, for I had no accident. 1 went upstairs and sat down in my own room, after carefully Iockmg" the door-—just why I do not know, but the idea was so stupendous that | 1 wanted no interruptions while| thinking about it. | How did Alice come with such a| magnificent and valuable string of pearis, and having them, why did she give them to me? Could it be possib'e that she did not know the pearls were real? I went back to the time when ghe gave them to me. 1 wanted again to| understand and remember just what she said. 1 remembered she had| given them to me the day that she had asked me to wear “something old ahd somcthing new, something horrowed and something blue.” When she handed me the pearls she said, after T had esclaimed with dalight aver them, that- she had cothe across a man who had pur- chased them for someone that he har cared for very, very much, and then, as he had lost her. he did not want them any more. She said she had found out how to abtain them through Betty Stokiey, and knowing that Betty Stokley abroad, 1 jumped at the conclusion fhat had gotten. these heads, as 1 sup-| posed they were, from some for- signer who had arrived in this eonn- sy, and hecominz hard presced for) Z2swmey, had cold them to her. | did she know that was kindty “What was it you wanied™ shed cautiously “1 heve four peaple, relatives and ‘mulu. coming 1o visit me this eve Ining” I esplained, “There are reg | sans why | do not wish to take them {10 & restaurant, and you know T san. not manage much of a dinner on My plate,” uld net gel dinner for you," j-nu interrupted hastily Tt is all {1 ean de te do my ewn cooking." 1 “On!

In ordinary. every day breathing, not more than 10 per cent of your lung capacity 1s charged at each breath, Deep breathing brings into play the whole lung power and in- creases the circulation in the abdomi- nal organs to a marked degree, Where there Is nervous or emotional stress, the blood pressurc is alded greatly. Sedentary people often talk about uric acid. 1t is casy to explain—Ilack of oxygen and incomplete combustion. The carbohydrates (starch and sugar) are fuel foods. When the oxi- dation of sugar, through muscular action, 15 completed, the product is water and carbon dioxide, Tncomplete oxidation produces another hody poison, lactic acid. The increased output of the adrenal glands, which occurs® under the stimulus of exercise and complete hody action, supplies the cells with the growth they demand by furnish- ing the required oxidation. Breathe 1t | in—expel it—Dbreathe in some more. When you sit around the house or office and stretch and yawn—your oxygen ration has been sadly neglect- ed. Take a hike. Pots and Pans If your kitchen lacks shelf space, build shelves across the corner, mak- ing the lower shelf twice as broad as those above it.
