The young Bluebird who was tak- ing a bath in a dish of water near the clothesline of Farmer Brown's dooryard gave a final eplash and flew up beside his brother and s ter on the clothesline. His brother all in white, gave startled littles cries and flew off a few feet. You see, they were completely upset. This sounded like their brother when he spoke, but he certainly didn't look like their brother. He was dressed all in blue. Not only was he blue on back . and wings, as were his father and mother, but his breast was blue. In fact, he was blue all over; and his eyes were pink. Had it not heen for those pink eyes, I fear that even then the two little folks in white would have refused to belicve that this was their brother. “What Is the matter with you?” he demanded crossly. “Nothing is the matter replied his sister. “The ith us” matter ing to yourself?" “Nothing,” replied Bluebird promptly. “I've bath; that's all.” But you've changed your cried his sister. “I haven't done anything of kind,” retorted her brother. “You ha too retorted “You are all blue and hefore went into that water you we white.” “Don't talk nonsense! sharply. “I' as white was, en s looked was so surprised that h g0 of the clothes line. almost let go of the clothesline, spread out & wing and drew around iu front of him. ry feath er of it was blue!

For she had seen Mil- before, and they been violent storms of weeping, vio- lent stamping with hard little fists. Now there was a note in Millie's sobbing that was more like pain than fury, and as Sally flew to her to lift her up from the floor she began to moan. “I'm dyin 00-0-0-0-0—"" Her voice ended in a sharp little shrick of agony. Sally could almost belicve what she said as she looked at her. Her that had been enough a few moments before, was a m now turned up. showing the whites. “Millie!” Sally whispere slek with sudden terror. “What's wrong?" What on earth could have happened to make her look like this, she wondered. . .And all in that minute, too! “Get Dr. Ambleside,” Sally said to | her mother with stiff lips. “i%lIl him to rush She lifted Millic's small, writhing figure to Mrs. Jerome's wide, soft bed, and began to strip off her soft, silk sports dress, and her stockings and shocs. And while she worked, Millie never stopped her groans, and never once stopped turning and twisting in Perspiration—cold as rain- drops—came out on her soft flesh. Once she put her hand to her side and tried to say something. But her power to speak scemed to be gone. After a second she went on moaning like an animal in pain. “The doctor will be here in a lit- tle whi panted Mrs. Jerome, coming bacbk from the hall. “Oh dear Lord, what can be the matter with her?

She was lying perfectly still now, her face almost hidden in the plump pillows that were piled three decp at the head of her mother’s hed. “She's in some kind of terrible pain.

Your Health How to Keep It— Causes of [iness —ed BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Assoclation and of Hy- gein, the Health Magazine, Tt has long been the common im- pression that the flat-chested per- son is the one likely to have tuber- culosis and that persons with large round chests have a fine set of | lungs. ! Recently, physicians in the Uni- | versity of Minesota School of Medi- cine have made measurements of ! persons with tuberculosis, of normal adults, of normal children, and of children and adults with various complaints of the chest to determine the chest conformation associated with various disea As a result of these observations, concluded !that the flat-chest is apparently {the healthy chest, and that the round or deep chest is probably so conformed because it has not de- | veloped properly from the in- fantile condition. The vital capacity which sents the number of cubic inches {of air that a person can forcibly lexpel after a full inspiration is more than 50 per cent larger in flat-chested persons than in those having a round, tuberculous chest. | The vital lung capacity of normal students d from 2450 to 6200 cubic centimeters, with an average of 4340, whereas that of tuberculous patients varied from ‘Mm to 4300 c. ¢. with an average jof 2650, The round chest type is probably more prone to tuberculosis. For- [ tunately, it may be avoided by en- couraging children to participate in sports, gymnastics and games, es- pecially those that will aid the proper development of the chest. Dr. & A. Weisman recommends for this purpose tennis, baseball, work on the parallel bars, gymnastic rings, swimming, climbing ladders ackward, and climbing ropes and trees. A German investigator found that the vital capacity increases in a very short time under these forms of exercise.
