gt e NEW BRITAIN bAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, MAY 16, 1928. “Revelations Awake and Her Own Heart | ‘Warms to Dicky. 1 It was many days before we dis- | covered the meaning of the ques- | tion Harry Underwood kept repeat- ing in his delirium. “Well! L1, | how about it? WIIl it do?" And| while that question and the one of | life itself for the intropid adventur- | cor lay delicately balanced upon the | scales of fate, all our littls world of | the farmhouse was animated by but one thought, anxiety for the man | who had made so effective and spec- | tacular an atonement for his crazed, drink-caused treachery to his coun- try, and to Dicky, his best friend, in the early days of our participation n the World War. The farmhouse was unwontedly uiet durin gthese days of watching, s number of occupants materially reduced. Allen Drake had gone with the cringing, baffled Sergius for the final steps in the crushing of the| conspiracy of which even now I had | far from complete knowledge. The | Princess Olina, recovering from the | shock of the night, had risen to the occasion with a resourcefulness gur- prising to me. | “I'm going to The Tarches at| cnee," she said the morning after the capture of Sergius, “and you must let take everybody over | thers who isn’t needed here. That| will give you a quiet house for Mr.| I 'nderwood, and it will be my salva- | tion. T should go insane over there ! y myself.” “I accept vour offer gladl said promply, for it at once solved| . distressing problem for me. Be-| ‘ove nightfall, Mother Graham, zeal- | ously guarding Junior, Mary Harri- | son, outwardly submissive, but in-| wardly raging at her enforced prox-| imity to the girl she so disliked; | Marion, Lillian's winsome daughter, | ignorant of the fidentity of the| wounded man, and vaguely troubled | at being separated from her mother, and finally, Katherine, secretly | charged with the task of keeping| peace triumphant in the oddly as- sorted group—all these were cozily installed in The Larches. In the farmhouse beside the wounded man | and the nurses, were left my father, |illian, Dieky and myself, with| ikatie and Jim to take care of us. My father, though not seriously | ill. was decidedly not well, his con-| dition aggravated by excitement, | and T spent much of my time in his voom, evading Dicky as much as| passible. 1 had been curiously up- sct on the night of the capture of | Sergius by my fear for my hus-| band's safety, and by my nu-m-.d; pride fn the way he unexpectedly Jominated the situation. Ever since; Uhat night the realization that I was | capable of such reaction toward icky had troubled me sorely. T had schooled mysel?

I don’t want him to think there is anything extraordi- nary about it. And don't be af- fected by the decislon I have made. Your problem is different from mine. Don’t be rushed into a solu- tion of it.” ‘When we came into the sick reom the invalid looked up at us with his old twisted grin. “Well! Lady Fair!” he sald, “I'm like a kid with a Christmas present, can’t wait until I show off te my pals—and you and the Dicky-bird are those—all there are. I couldn't wait any longer to let you know that the old girl here is going to give me another chance, and so help me—-" “Tell them about the play, Harry,” his wife interposed hastily. “Don’t want any of the solemn oath business, eh? LiI?" he said ahrewdly. “Well! I can’t blame you. It's like this,” turning his face toward us again. “A while ago I sent old Phil Veritzen a play, anony- mously, but it seems the fox knew my style or thought he did. Any- way, he's going to give it a bang- up production, and wants another one. So I'll be able to provide a bit of jam for the ‘wife and the kid- die.’ " He drawled the absurd words in his old ridiculous fashion, and we all laughed with a heartiness that showed under what a tension we were all laboring. But T saw his face paling, realized the interview was too much for hia strength and signaled as much to Lillian. He would not let us go, however, until he made us form a circle of hands with him. “The old quartet together again,” he murinured weakly when he had humored his sck fancy. “Just like the old times. God's in His Heaven, and all the rest of it."” My knees were trembling so that I could hardly walk from the room. Dicky atopped me just outside the door. “I don't expect you to subscribe to that speech,” he said, “However —don’t you think we could make an attempt to pick up the pieces again?” But T could not hear in his voice the note which would have made the appeal irresistible. Without it I could not yield, wholl: “I don’t know, Dic T said sor- . “But at least I'm willing to try.’ He caught me to him with a little stifled exclamation, Kissed me roughly, then almost pushed me away. We'll start from tbat, then,” he said as he walked swiftly to his own room, leaving me uncertain if he meant my words or his caress. But I was certain of one thing at least. The embera of my love for Dicky had not died out altogether. They still were capable of flame.

Admits Suggested Clpims The editor of a periodical for those interested in goat's milk dairies urges that goat's milk is superior to cow's milk as a food, that it is more eaasily digestible, that it has greater antirachitic power than cow's milk, and that goats sel- dom, it ever, have tuberculosis. The editor of the periodical, how- ever, admitted that goat's milk is not a medicine but simply a food, and that many of the exaggerated claims made for it are unwarranted. It is generally well known that milk as a food {is insufficlent in iron. For this reason persons fed on an exclusive milk diet tend to become anemic, whether cow’'s milk | or goat's milk. Attempts have been made to in- crease the {iron content by the feeding of various rations to which iron had been added. However, the evidence showed definitely that it is difficult to take care of this de- ticlency of milk in general by adding iron to the food. In his book on “Diseases of Chil- dren” Dr. Julius Hess pints out that there is no cssential chemical dif- ference between the constituents of the casein of goat's milk and that of cow’'s milk. He believes that the toagulym of goat'’s milk forms a more cofw pact and firm maas than does that of cow’s milk. He points out, more- over, that in proportion to its body weight the goat produces about twice as much milk as the cow. A good scrub or common goat will yield about two quarts of milk a day; a good toggenburg will pro- duce from three to four quarts. Dr. Hess writes that if goat's milk is obtained undes clean conditions, it is the most suitable substitute for breast milk, since it 1s not exposed to the possibility of changes and has not lost its natural properties and can be given raw, Recommendation In a report issued by the Chil- dren's Bureau of the Department ot Labor, goat's milk is strongly recommended because of the low cost to familles which can keep goats singly and which have not the money to purchase a cow, nor the space in which to keep it. In the scientifically developed herds of goats in the Univeraity of California a gallon of milk wes produced 23 per cent cheaper by the goat herd than by the cow herd. Many people fear the taste of goat's milk, but there is not the slightest reason for a bad taste it proper precautions are taken in | milking. The use of goat's milk for infant feeding has many e@- thuslastic supporters who praise it because {ts acidity 1s sald to be less than that of cow's milk and because of the relative cheapness with which a safe milk can be pro- duced. Some Infants react unfavorabiy §e cow’s milk, and for them goafs milk s invaluable. There is still some argument as to the resistance of the goat to tu- berculosis. The general impres- slon seems to be that goats are ‘leas likely to have tuberculosis than cows. On the other hand, in the southwest portion of the United States occasional cases of malta fever have appeared among goat herda, A murvey of the evidence they would seem to indicate that goat's milk when properly produced and cared for is a valuable food product.

There are two eggs in that nest and you might get the wrong one.” “But if I took both I'd be sure to get the right one,” said Sammy, with a twinkle in his eyes. “Where is Sally 8ly now?” inter- rupted Sunshine the Yellow Warb- 1€r. an anxious note in hia voice. “Probably hunting for your nest,” replied Little Friend. “I hope you have it well hidden.” “Excuse me!” exclalmed Chippy the Chipping Sparrow. “I must go warn Mrs. Chippy not to leave our rest for a second.” “The same thought just struck me,” exclaimed Redeye the Vireo. “It is outrageous that such things can happen. We all ought to get to- gether and drive this Sally Bly away."” “And probably while we are huni- ing for her she would be dropping an egg in some unprotected nest,” spoke up Welcome Robin. *“The thing for you little folks to do s not to leave your nests unguarded for a moment.” | (Copyright, 1925, by T.
