He knows that I have only to report his whereahouts to certain interested people—in Trees and Transvania— in order to make it extremely un- pleasani for him. He also under- stands that if Queen Olga, of Trars- vania, finds out where her daughter s, befors the Princess Olina gets ready to notify her mother herelf, | 1 shall make that report upon him at once, whether or not he himself is instramental in giving the queen | that information. It is to his inter- est now to keep her secret inviol- able, and I am sure that will do so.” There was a grimness in his tone and his expression boded no good to Samuel Brixton's half-brother. The Princess Olina was safe from Charles Owen, but there was no as- surance that Lillian would made a victim of the mysterious acheme which I was sure he and Bamue! Brixton were concocting. 1 trampled underfoot an innate reluc- tance to confide anything of my af- fairs or Lillian’s to a comparative stranger, and put a hesitant ques- tio “Is that knowledge of him any- thing which anyone else in fear of him could use?” He looked at me searchingly and lowerad his voice still farther. “Yes, it is. speak, “Don't tell me anything. There isn't time.

Mary believed that Marion, because of the almost cloistered ex- istence which had becn hers, was in danger of becoming a “stick,” that abhorrence of girihood, and that the advent of a handsome collegiate like Ronald into her life would be a | most beneficial thing tor her. Know- ing Marion's shyness and inexperi. ence she had determnied to play the part of the goddess in the ma- chine and furnish as much propin- quity as possible to Lillian's win- some young daughter and the youtn who was displaying sq much ad- miration for her. Marion flushed perceptibly at Mary's suggestion but 1 was proud of her composed answer, “I'm so sorry 1t isn't moonligh she said, “for the ocean's a perfectly marvelous sight when it is.

The child was painfully ‘Embnrmued = her crimson cheeks showed that, but her anawer to his unspoken appeal was prompt. “I don't mind getting up that early,” she said stanchly. “I'd love to go down with you and Carolyn just before sunrise, You'll have to wrap up warmiy though. It's pretty chilly in the mornings at this time of the yeal “You'll have to count me out of that party,” Carolyn said promptly, giving a realistie little shiver. “Ron knows 1'd rather have a good licking than get up in the morning at the regular time.

Buster Returns | By Thornton W. Burgess “ Who runs away from what he's done ‘Will find his troubles just begun. —Old4 Mother Nature. The trouble with people who take chances is that when they have suc- cesstully taken a chance they are ali the more ready to take another chance. They lose caution. They may have done very foolish, perhaps dangerous, but, having successfully done it, they are ready to do it over again, or something else equally foolish. S0 it was with Buster Bear. He had caught and carried away a pig from a little farm on the back side of the Great Mountain. That pig had fur- nished him his Thanksgiving dinner. 1t was the first time his stomach had been completely filled since the berry season. A full stomach is a very good feeling. The taste of that pig had been delicious. delicious taste and the zood g of the full stomach made Buster fecl that never in all his life had he enjoycc quite so much When Buster awoke after his long nap he was feeling in fine wasn't hungry then, but for all that, he kept thinking about the pi s the nicest m 1 ever at Buster, talking to hin, “ pose I ought to ep away fror those pigs. but I certainly would like another dinner like the one 1 had 1 wish pigs lived in the woods, in. stead of over in pens close to the homes of those two-legged creatures called men. I do so. Two or three more pig dinners would put me in erlendid condition to sleep through the winter. I don’t suppose it would be safe to go back there n right away. Probably it would be a very foolish thing to de, but the are more pigs over there, and—and"— Buster didn’t finish that sentence. but he licked his lips. Conld you have seen him you would have fully understood his meaning. But presently Buster began to have a little common scnse. He realized that very likely the farmer meal ag; |in wait for him or would have set who owned those pigs would be lying a trap for him. “No,” said Buster to | himself, “as good as pig is, it really ! isn't worth the risk. No, sir, it really isn't worth the risk. 1 guess the best | thing for me to do is to start along | my way. If I hang around here long | 1 shall get into trouble. Trouble is | the last thing in the world that I| want. So T guess T'll go along.” | So Buster started along. Having | is stomach full, he was in no par- | ticular hurry to get anywhere, so he just loafed along. Once he stopped | and climbed 'way up to the top of a | tall tree, just to have a look around ' over the country. That was where he made a mistake. Yes, sir, that 8 where he made a mistake. That tall tree was on a hill and he could look over the forest. Away off in the dm.l ta in the direction from which he had come, he saw a little farm. He could the house, and he could see the barn. At that distance they looked like toys. But he knew that little farm for just what it was. He knew it for the home of those delectable pigs. The sight of it set thouehts once more on the sub- and their goodness as When he came tree Buster down from the tood for a few moments in an attitude of uncertainty, He thrust forward his head and tested wind. n slowly he began to shuffle off. Where was he going? He was headed straight back to lh(e ace he had ¢ from. He was| headed straight back toward that lone little farm.

MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hy- geia, the Health Magazine In Kansas in 1927, according to the records of the secretary of the state board of heaith, only four diseases, namely, heart disease, can- cer, brain hemorrhage and Bright's disease, caused more deaths than were caused by accident. In fact, for a period of ten years deaths from accidental causes con- stitute almost 6 per cent of the total. A large part of this mortality has of course, been due to the automo- bile. Automobile accident death Question—When do the first tecth appear? Answer—The average time of thelower central frontetain the appearance of the lower central front teeth is from six to nine months. Sometimes they appear even later. Wide varia- tions are common. rates have shown a steady increase from a rate of 2.1 per 100,000 pop- ulation in 1914 to a rate of 13.7 for each 100,000 of population in 1927. Drownings, while of importance, are not nearly so frequent as auto- mobile accidents and occur largely in May, June, July and August. Ac- tually _ three-fourths of all deaths from drowning occur in these four months, The majority of deaths from ac- cidental falls occur during the months of December and January, the period of freezing and greatest darkness. The five principal types of acci- dental deaths as recorded for a pe- icd of 14 years during which there were 8,922,000 deaths in all were: | Accidental fallg 2542; automobile ac- cidents 2018; railroad accidents 1, 879; accidental drownings 1214; ac cidental burns 1169, Approximately R per cent of all deaths from accidental falls oc- cur in persons from 70 to §9 years of age. step, tripping over a rug, a fall trom a bed or chair may result in breaking one or more bones. At such an advanced age broken bones do not heal easily. During the World War the total | were | deaths of American foldiers 120,050.

Certainly under the circumstances the auto- mobile may be classed as the most deadly weapon in the human ar- mament.

By 8ister Mary ‘When the turkey appears as the ecrowning glory to the Thankagiving dinner the men of the houpe must take the center of the stage. The wise host will make a trip to the kitchen before the bird is trussed and inform himself of its general snatomy. The average American man does not carve a turkey many times during the year and if he un- rstands the position of its jointa and the direction in which the muscular fibers run, halt the battie is won. 8o the more information he can gather before the festive occa. sion the easier will be ceremony. Have Large Platter There are several little things the cook can do to assist the carver. | First relieve the host of part of his duties for the day by letting some member of the party who sits next to him serve the vegetables, He will, of courpe, serve the dresing and If a maid is pot in attendance may serve the gravy over the dressing, In the second place be sure the platter on which the turkey is placed is large enough. Unless the carver is an expert a small platter placed at his left on which he may put the legs and wings as he removes them will make the carving much easier, And in the last place put the platter directly in front of the earv. er with the side of the turkey to. ward him, the drumsticks to the right and the neck to the left. Place the earving fork at the left outside and ahove the host's personal silver and the steel and carving gnife at relatively the same place at the right. With the stage all set the host ean attack the deliciously glazed golden brown bird. Insert the cprving fork firmly in the center of the hreast hone at its highest point. First cut off the sec- ond joint and drumstick in ene piece making a circular cut around the joint close to the body. With the blade of the knife force the leg back and cut the ligaments holding the thigh bone to the body. With an- other fork remove the piece to the smaller platter. Provided, or if, the turkey platter is large enough let it ay by the side of the turkey. Re- move the wing on the same side in the same way, making a circular cut around the joint close to the body. ‘Without removing the fork cut thin slices lengthwise from the breast, beginning close to the place where the wing was removed. Work up to the ridge of the breast. keeping the slices thin and parallel to the breast bone. Cut Parallel to Bone For the first time the carving fork is removed. S8eparate the sec- ond joint and drumstick, cutting the flesh to the joint, pressing the joint apart with the blade of the knife and cutting through the ligaments. Cut the meat from the sccond joint and drumstick in neat pleces, cut- ting parallel to the hone. Make a wide incision in the apron for serving the stuffing. Unless you are sure that the whole turkey will be needed for the first serving carve only one side at first and serve it before carving the sec- ond side. Scrve a plece of white meat and one of dark meat with some of the | stufting on each plate. A roast chicken is carved in the same way as the turkey with the ex- ception of the legs. These are not 80 large and are usually served the whole second joint or drumstick for a pertion. ‘The carving knife must be very sharp for the breast of turkey is quite dry and almost erumbly in texture.and neat thin slices cannot be made unless the knife cuts with- out prelsur» Berlin's Poor Are Fed By Widow of Ebert| Berlin, Nov. 30 (—Frau Louise | | Elbert, once the “first lady” of the | German republic, is devoting her | 1jfe to the feeding of the needy.
