Love’s Embers Adele Garrison’s Absorbing Sequel to “Revelations of a Wife” Beginning a New Seri Mary Harrison's Career Again the Subject of Discussion Despite the fact that Lilllan and 1 had not scen each other for sev- eral weeks, we talked very little in the hour following our return from the mountain inn where we had dined with Philip Veritzen. I was more fatigued than I had thought | by my long day, which had begun | \t dawn in the farmhouse one hun- dred miles away, and I was glad indeed to luxuriate in a hot scented bath, and slip into bed afterward. Indeed it was not until the mnext night, after a day of shopping for me and work for Lillian that settled down to what she inva dubs “a powwow."” “Let’s take thing seriatim,’ proposed when in negligee and slip- pers we sat with lights turned low and the door to her balcony open that we might get what cool air the heated city permitted. “In the | first place, T want to get the low | down about Mar Tell me again tbout that proposal of hers to tell Phil Veritzen all ahout her esca- “It's a short and simple story,” 1 <aid. “She has heen going through | (gonies of remorse and repentance ver since she been well rnough to think about anything.

But she was adamant on the suhject of telling Mr. Veritzen that she had been the masked dancer. On that point, of course, 1 did not oppose her after T had told | her that he never would know un- | less she did tell him.” “I'm not so sure of that after his spiel today,” she said, thoughtful “Are yon" I remembered the wunexpected | knowledge of things we had thought | nidden from him which Philip | | T ta glimpse of it t { hope T'm mis Veritzer. had shown during our drive and dinner, and shook my head. ‘No, I'm nct,” I returned. “And yet, there at the last when he was discussing the masked dancer’s dis- appearance, 1 didn’t see anything in Lis words or manner which would indicate that he suspected Mary of being that girl.” “Oh, yes, he was apparently the soul of frankness,” Lillian said, “but I've known Phil Veritzen for n Winters and Summers, and while he has loads of good qualities, he also has a few which are not so admir- able, and one of them gives him at a distinct resemblance to a cat mouse hetween his paw re’s @ touch of the feline in Philip Veritzen, and T thought T saw ay in his eyes talking about Mary.

T saw that T had startled her. “How?" The interrogation held not only surprise but a faint tinge of alarm, such as might be felt by the owner of a dike who had thought it impregnable and then suddenly discovered a crack in it. “Because,” I said slowly, “Mary when he ,is nothirg but a child terribly re- morseful for the folly which after all has hurt only her prospects, not her character. tion with her would not hurt Ma; jon at all. And—forgive me, Lillian —but aren’t you trying to keep that adorable daughter of yours too tightly wrapped in cotton-wool?"

Artificial res- piration should be started at once. The method most advised nowa- days is the Schaefer prone pres- sure method. This 15 a one-man method, simple to perform and now being tauvght workers in industrial plants. It the heart needs stimulation, this is sometimes accomplished by a sharp slap over the heart region in the chest. A physician can, of course, stimulate the heart di- rectly by the injection of drugs and in some instances even restore life by opening the body and direct- ly massaging the heart. Electrical manufacturing eor- porations do mot incline to the pur- chase of artificial mechanical breathing apparatus. Dr. Fisher states that he does not know of a single case of electric shock on record in which the patient's breathing had stopped and in which the heart had ceased to beat and responded only with a twitching, in which a mechanical device ever brought about re- covery. Moreover, _the mechanical apparatus is not present when needed and the delay in its re- ceipt sometimes interferes with the use of the manual method commonly advised. The average person will breathe from sixteen to twenty times per minute. Dr. Fisher believes that artificial respiration movements should be given more rapidly than this, since not sufficient air will be taken in at that rate to comfort the patient. He belleves the rate should be hetween twenty-four and forty respiratory movements per minute.
