Love’s Eimbers Adele Garrison’s Absorbing Sequel to “Revelations of a Wife” Beginning Madge and Lillian Clear the Way for a Happy Summer Tt was with a distinct feeling of triumph that 1 leaned over and kissed Lillian when she announced her decision to come to the firm with her young daughter Marion. It had been a tusk which I had fear- .4 was impossible—this convincing her that Mary Harrison's repentance was so sincere and her character s0 changed that Marion would not be harmed by close association with her. But I kad won that never again would the question be raised. Lilhan is royal in her amends \s she is inexorable in her judg- nents. I recognized the tender, spec- alative look which = had come irto her eyes. Already she was planning how she could make up to Mary for he prejudice she had entertained \gainst her. That Mary knew noth- ing of the elder woman's feeling nattered no whit to Lillian. It was her own sense of injustice done which she was trying to appease. “Do you suppose Mary would are for a motor trip with Marion ind me?” she asked. “You know I 1014 you T was going to get a littlc car and take Marion on short house hunting trips.

Then, just as the street car slid to a stop and she started towards it, he jumped out. But Sally was too quick for him.

It came to her again, as she stood there waiting for him to come back, that she had lived through this scene before. It seemed to her that she had known all along that this viould happen—that somchow or other, he would make everything right if only she went to him. Her courage came back to her in a rush. But when he had counted out five $20 bills into her hand, and she was out in the nolsy darkness once more, it all scemed like a dream. “I don't know why I went to him. 1 must have been crazy!” she said to herselt. “And he certainly must have been out of his mind to lend it to me!

Feeling us if some miracle had happened to her, she reached home and unlocked the door of the flat. The living room was ip darkness, but from the rear hall came a dim shaft of light. As Sally entered the dining room she could sce Beau standing at the telephone. He was saying something that she could not make out. Then, as he saw her, he banged the recelv- er down upon its hook and came toward her. “Come on in here! T want to talk to you,” he whispered, hoarsely, and sally turned back into the living | struggling human things do some- | room and switched on a lamp. “Sit down,” Beau went on, in that hoarse whisper, and she dropped down Into a chalr. In the light she could see that his blue eyes had a wild look in them, thora were sharp little lines that went from his nose to the cor- ners of his mouth. Beau looked ten vears older than he ever had before, in all lus lazy, happy-go-lucky young life “Listen, Sally,” he sald, not look- ing at her, “I'm in a heck of a mess!—I've got to have some money and I've got to have it quick!” He shook a cigarette from a dirty little paper packet and pasted it on his lower lip. While he was lighting it, Sally spoke to him. “Beau, I've known you were in trouble,” she began, and opened her handbag with cold, stiff fingers, “I've been so worried: 2 Yes, and you'd just better be 1" he took her up. “because I'm just about two inches this side of the county jail.

MQRRIS FISHBEIN Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association, and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine During the hot weather it is well for the baby to be out-of-doors at least early in the morning and late in the afternoon. During the hot- test portions of the day, the child will probably be more comfortable it kept in-doors in the coolest room of the house. It should of course be understood that a baby left out-of-doors needs watching. It ought to be protected by a proper netting against flies, mosquitoes and other insects. It ought to be protected by suitable arrangements against being troubled by dogs, cats and wandering ani- mals. Furthermore, a baby out-of- doors is likely to attract some public attention from neighbors and visit- ors. Any baby will do much better it allowed to lie quietly than if it is picked up by every passing stranger. Under no circumstances should vis- itors be allowed to mouth or Kiss the baby. or to amuse themselves by tossing it in the air. In somo of the hospitals in New Zealand babies live out-of-doors all day and sleep in well ventilated rooms at night. A child may be habituated to various degrees of ex- | posure, but should not be subjected too suddenly to rigorous climatic conditions. In the summer, becauseof per- spiration, bables are likely to suffer trom irritation of the skin or from the condition called “heat rash.” If the skin is irritated, the difficulty may arise from the ract that the garments have not been changed often enough, or that the skin has not been properly cleaned or dried | after the garments are changed. | The care of the skin in the sum- mer involves the use of little soap and that which is used should be | mild.
