Letter from Mre. Joseph Graves Ham- ilton to Neslie Prescott. My Dear Daughter: I'm very much disappointed at npt being able to be with you on your anniversary, but, Leslie dear, 1 am very much worried over your father, He's not very well, and since he ar- rived himg his business cares, be- cause of his long absence, have doubled and been most troublesome. He misses Mre, Atherton very much, Of course the whole house is up- eet with preparations for Alice's wedding. I wonder if you remember that at the time of your marriage she sald she was not going to have big wedding—that she hated them. 'ow she seems to bé obessed with only one idea—that her wedding is to be a much larger, much grander end much more expensive soclety event than yours. AFTER AN OPERATION Mes.

FABLES Having become interested in breathing exercises, Mr. Mann began to inquire more deeply into the effect obtained from deep, rhythmic breath- ing. And, among other things, he found ‘this out: When an ordinary breath is taken something like 10 per cent of the |lung content is changed with each |breath, When a deep breath is taken the entire lung is forced into action and an immediate stimulant is given the liver and abdominal ecirculation jof the blood. |*_ This, in turn, has the helpful re- | sult of setting into action any stag- nant blood ifi those two regions, caus- ing it to be oxygenated.

And, the two witches had tried this way and that way to catch_the Rag- gedys and take away these magical things, but each time the two witches had bumped into trouble. taggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy had ma#®e friends with a nies poor man and he was traveling along with them on top of the honse on wheels.

HEALTH | BREATHE REGULARLY eure is favorably influenced and per. sons of high emotional tendencies can be benefited by a systematic| course in deep and rhythmic breath- ing. Bteathing should be deep and slow, | |carried on rhythmically. Some ori- |ental races have worked out an in- teresting method to insure evenness of breath. They press a finger to the side of the nose, closing one nostril and breathing through the other; then reserving to the other nostril. While doing this it may be noted | that lihn sound of breathing becomes audible and attention to this msound of air makes it possible to note whether the breathing is irregular. | The Adventures f Kaggedyhn gedy Andy my Sruelle two witches each thought, “Now I &hall work some kind of magic which will let me catch the Raggedys before my sister does so that I'shall have all the magical things for my very own!" 8o each witch went away into the bushes by herself, yet keeping an eye on the other for fear she would get ahead. And so watching each other, | [they worked thelr magic.

And, when the Raggedys ran out from the house on wheels to see what had caus: the trouble, the two witches, Minga and Munga came rid- | ing up on broom sticks, Minga grah- | | hed Raggedy Ann and Munga grab- | Raggedy Andy and before the | nice poor man could interfere, the two witches flew right up over the free tops to thetr home.

But in the darkness my fingers were clumsy, True, I managed put the genuine stone in my walst- coat pocket, but the imitation slipped from my grasp, and fell upon table, . “What was that"" asked Miss Ker- nochan nervously as the ring hit the table-top. “I dropped your ring; 1T am sorry,” I replied, ! As 1 spoke, the lights came on again , The ring was not upon the table. For a moment there was si- lence; then Vantine's pop eyes grew hard. “I don't see the ruby, Mr. Ainsley,” he said suspiciously. “It must be upon the floor,” T re- plied, I tried to keep my volce steady, but failed lamentably. any rate, Vantine crogsed the room, and before T realized his intention, had locked the one door of the room. “It will have to be on the floor," he said. I stared: at him. mean?" T demanded. “Nothing—if the ring floor,” he retorted. I will say for the Kernochans that they were embarrassed by the sud- den situation. The daughter spoke. "Of course it's on the floor, Ernest, We'll find it—" “You bet we tine. I had not liked him before; I hated him now. Yet, trying to assume an air of injured innocence, I joined their search. And there was no make- believe in my aid. I knew that un- less one of us found the {imitation ring, T would not be permitted to leave this house, T would be searched, and that might be danger- ous. Yet after fifteen minutes in which “What do you is on the will,” assented Van- fall four of us had combed the rugs and the corners of the room, Vantine strajghtened up. “Well, we've given you a fair chance, Ainsley,” he said. “Now we'll really look for it." ad- vanced toward me. I blustered, but he cried me down. His hands were reaching for me, and I cursed the greediness that had made me retain the ring. I could have slipped it out of my pocket at any time during this past quarter of an hour, but I had been certain that we would find the paste copy. And then, just as I was tightening my muscles, prepared to fight my way out of the situation from which wit had fafled to extricate me, Kerpo- chan cried out in excitement. He ‘was weaeing an informal sort of even- ing dress, a baggy affair of heAvy ma- terial, the dinner suit of a man who wishes to be extremely comfortable. “The soft material had cuffs on sleeves and trousers ,and into one of these latter my paste ring had fallen, Ker- nochan bent over and retrieved There was an embarrassed silence, during which my pulse stood still. Then Vantine grinned feebly. “I beg your pardon, Mr. Ainsley,” he said sheepishly. I stared ,at him. “1 fear that_it cannot be granted,” 1 said stiffly, I turned to my host, “You will for- give me if, under the circumstances, I am forced to withdraw my accept- ance of your invitation to spend the night.” It was a situation to which Ker- nochan was unegual, He had been Jjust as suspicious of me as his pros- pective son-in-law, and he had not the tact wherewith to meet my at- titude, He looked helplessly at Van- tine, I also looked at Vantine, “Unlock the door,” I ordered the detective, ». He shrugged, flushed more redly, and walked to the door. The key was almost in the lock when *his fiancee screamed, “This isn't my ruby,” she cried. PR For all his clumsy ‘bulk, Vantine was quick of movement, Key in hand, he leaped to her side, “Tt's an imitation,” he declared. He glared at me, “Very clever-—almost clever enough, my sneakthief! But you're dealing with Ernest Vantine, Now, will you be searched here or at the police station?" I flatter myself that it is in ments like this that 1 rise to my greatest heights, I stimulated a weary contempt. I walked across the room, and if my brain seethed with wrath at myself because I had been fool enough to think that the tmitation could deceive people who | had held the original in their hands |a moment before, T do not believe that my face reflected my thoughts, Upon the table lay a vanity bag [that Miss Kernochan had carried. 1 put myself between my three ac- jcusers and the table, half turning, as 1 did so. My right hand was hid- {den from their view for less than a | quarter of a second, yet that was time {enough for me to effect a transfer of |the Grand Duke's ruby from my | waistcoat pocket to the vanity bag. !'Then. eontemptuously, facing them | all, 1 told Vantine to search rge. . s 0 An_hour later Vantine gave it up.

It seems to me that a man in my position ought to be able [to collect substantial. damages—say, a quarter of a million.” “A damned sneak-thief would col- lect nothing,” snarled Vantine, Yet he paused. “Quite true,” said I. “But we are I not discussing a criminal; we are dis- cussing a gentleman of position.” “You have that ring; at least, you know where it is,” declared Vantine. “It didn’t vanish into thin air. And this is paste.” e indicated the copy which lay upon the card table. “And aside from the large sum which I shall certainly collect as damages,” T went on, calmly, “there is something else to be considered. You are the head of a famous de- tective agency which bears your | name, If you d re that I have stolen a ring in your very presence, and are unable to prove the theft— and you can only prove it by finding the ring—what sort of an advertise- ment will it be for your agency?” I let this sink in; I enjoyed the ex- pression on Vantine's face. Pop-eyed men should never permit themselves to look angry. They are unbeautiful at best, and at their worst they are extremely offensive, “You don’t think we're going to let you go?” blustered Vantine, “I don't think it; I know it,”” I re- plied. “And if this nonsense ceases at once, I shall let the matter drop. Otherwise—"" My pause was a threat. I saw the cunning in Vantine's eyes, Yet T despised him so thor- oughly that Y underrated his abilities. He whispered a moment with Ker- nochan, but I thought that they were merely arguing the advisability of risking the suit which T threatened to bring. So, when Vantine turned to me and gruffly stated that I was at liberty to leave, T bowed, and turn- ing to go, abstracted the ring from the vanity bag which Miss Kernochan had placed again upon the table, Oh, I was still an amateur in those days. Also, I was too confident in my own wit, and too given to contemptuous appraisal of the wit of others. For, just as we reached the door, Vantine said: “I think we'd better search you once again, Ainsley."” 1 suppose T went white. I should have known that no one but an utter fool would have permitted me to de- part so easily, and Vantine read my horror. He turned to his fiancee. “If you'll leave us again, Alice, we'll search this man.” “But you have searched him,” she sald, bewildered, (Continued in Our Next Issue) THE YOUNG LADY ACROSS THE WAY LOSE WEIGHT | Breakfast—Four tablespoons shred. |ded pineapple, 1 slice orlsp whole wheat toast, hot water, Luncheon—One tomato sandwich, 1 cup skimmed milk, Dinner==Three ounces broiled por- [ter-house steak, 4 tablespoons stripg |beans, 4 fadishes, '3 head lettuce, 2 |tablespoons raspberry fluft in 1 small | meringue shell, 1 gluten roll, | Bedtime—One cup skimmed milk, | ‘Total calories, 1207, Protein, |fat, .325; earbohydrate, 616, {0207 gfam, | If your calorie allowance is less |than 1200 you better not indulge in the raspberry fluff and meringue, Tomato Kandwich, One medium-sized tomato 1-4 pack age Neufchatel cheese, 2 English walnuts, 3 thin alices whole wheat | tonst, Pare tomato and slice on fresh warm toast, Spread with cheest sprinkle with nuts broken in small pieces and cover with remaining plece of toast, | Total calories, 248. |fat, 71; carbohydrate, 0011 gram, GAIN WEIGHT Breakfast—Four tablespoons shred. ded pineapple, 1 cup uncooked ce- |real with 1 banana, % cup cream, 1 {tablespoon sugar, 2 tahlespoons beef hash on toast with a poached egg, 2 bran muffins, 1 tablespoon butter, hot water, Midmorning lunch—One cup whole milk, 4 graham crackers.
