Love’s Awakening 'l‘hll:fl Stery s Steadfast Womas By Adele Garrison Dicky Indulges in a Lituc Sublle Satice at the Expense of Madge, ‘Whe Nas No Chance to Explain Curieusiy enough, st the sight of Dicky coming through the dour of the seaside dnn where Philip Verit- 3en and 1 had just had tea, it was not of my husband's anger I first theught, but ef the fulfillment of my little premonition that something unpleasant for me lurked in the inn near where Prince Georges had heen shot. Indeed. T could imagine few more disagreeable things than the domestic storm 1 visualized when Dicky ahould have an opportunity to empty the “vials of wrath” from which T was sure the corks were al- ready slipping. But it was a face masked with a brilliant. it perfunctory, smile which Jooked at us when the door had closed behind him and we met him tace to face. “’Lo! Madge!” he said. “How are you, Veritzen? You've just return- ed, T take it.” His voice was crisp, even cheery. hut there was a subtle intonation in the last words which conveyed an additional comment to me. If he had said to my companion: “You've lost no time,” his meaning could not have been clearer. Mr. Veritzen's face turbable. “Yes, just got back this morn- ing.” he said, “to find that a nys- terious disappearance act had been staged by my family and friends. Mrs. Graham has just been kind enough to explain it all to me over some tea. Have you ever tried the tea here? It is most excellent:” “Oh! yes. this is one of my fa- varite hang-outs” Dicky returned with apparent casualness, but a fur- tive glance—T dared not look at him openly—showed me the deeply etched lines at the aide of his lips and nostrils. sure indications that he was putting powerful restraint upon his temper. “And you are fortunate in having Mrs. Graham explain things. Bhe is the greates little explainer in the business—bar none—a most plausible and convine- ing—explainer.” Trouble in the Air His halt before the last word was slight but pregnant. If he had used the “direct and ugly word" itself he could not have heen more emphatic. I threw up my head with the same anger and need for defense I would have felt at a stiletto thrust. “Thanks so much, Dicky, for the was imper- PETER RABBIT MAKES A NEW ACQUAINTANCE By Thomton W. Burgess When meeting strangers be polite; It often saves both pain and fright. —Old Mother Nature It was over at the S8miling Pool that Peter Rabbit received one of the greatest surprises of his life. Pe- ter thought he knew all the water folk. Of coursz, he didn't. He didn't begin to know all of them, because ‘there are many, very many, who do net visit the Smiiing Pool, or the pond of Paddy the Beaver, or even the Big River. But Peter knew Mr. and Mrs Quack, Beauty the Wood Duck and Mrs. Wood Duck, Mr. and Mrs. Black Duck, Honker the Goose and his fiock, Teeter the Sandpiper, Rattles the Kingfisher. Longbill the Woodcock and Red- wing the Blackbird, all of whom ara found on or near the water. He ®aw all these feathered folk every #pring and some of them every fall. B0 whenever he visited the Smiling | Pool, the Laughing Brook or the pond of Paddy the Beaver, he ex- pected to see some one of these folk. There were two others that he often saw too, and these were Long- legs the Great Blue Heron and Quack the Night Heron. But he never expected to see any one else ameng the feathered folk. 80 perhaps you can imagine his surprise when one spring jnorning. @8 he sat pecping out from behind & bunch of grass, to see a total stranger swim out from the Laugh- ing Brook into the Smiling FPool. The stranger seemed to he very tauch at home or the water. It made not atiompt to come ashore. At first | Peter took it to be Duck. “I wonder where that young Duck came from,” said Peter 1o Grandfather ¥rog. who happened to be close by on a green lilypad. Grandfathr Frog loked up. “I don’t see any young Duck,” said he. “Then there must be something Grandfather " declarsd Peter. “There he fis swimming over where the Laughing Brook leaves the Smiling Pool.” -rum!” exclaimed Grand- “Chug-a-rum! That doesn’t look like a Duck to me. When did you ever see a Duck with a bill like that?” Peter lookedl very intently and a queer expression stole over his face, “1 never have seen & Duck with a bill like that" he confessed. “In- stead of being broad and flat, this fellow's bill s pointed. But he swims like a Duck and if it were not for thet bill he would look a Duck. Do you know who Grandfather Frog?" Just then the he stranger over trtil he was right under where | Peter was sitting. “Hello.

Which reminds me, Mr. Veritzen, she’'ll be wondering if we are losf “Don't let me keep you,” Dicky said instantly, moving past us. “Shall 1 tell Harry you and Lil will be home for gincheon? He was won- dering audibly about his frau when 1 left. “Oh, yes. we'll be home shortly.” T began, but Mr. Veritzen inter- rupted me suavely. A Luncheon Invitation “May 1 not amend that?” he said. “Surely vou and Mrs. Underwood can be spared from lunching at home for one day, and there are many sidelights upon this most in- teresting situation which 1 should like to get. Will you and Lillian lunch with me?" I did not dare look at Dicky, but my reply was prompt. “I'd love to, but it really isn't possible today. We are going to the city tomorrow, you know, and I have a million things to do. I can- not answer for Mrs. I'nderwood, however. You'll have to ask her.” “I give you fair warning, Verit- zen,” Dicky began in a sort of throaty growl. and I had an in- stant's fleeting panic at his words and tone. Then he finished innocu- ously, “that Mrs. Graham and Mrs. Underwood always hunt in couples. You'll hardly get one without the other. Don’t let them foel you either, with that guff about things to do. These all lie in their imagi- nation. Make them go to luncheon with you. They want to be coaxed, that's all. 8o long, Madge.

YOUR HEALTH BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal the American Medical Assoclagion and of Hy- gein, the Health The notion that typhoid fever comes from fish in drinking water, from dead weeds, or from aimilar contaminations, is a relic of the dark age before the discoveries of Pas- teur, He proved sponsible for that bacteria are re- infectious diseases of the type of typhoid fever. In the fifth century, B. C. writers described continued fevers of the same nature as typhoid and in the middle ages some physicians wrote descriptions of cases which are easily identifi®l today as ty- phoid fever. After Pasteur made his import- ant announcements in 1878-1879, a German scientist, Eberth,' found a short germ in the tissue of per- sons who has died of typhoid fever. Four years later, another investigator named Gaffky got the germ out of the tissue and made it grow. Thus he established defl- nitely the fact that typhoid fever is caused by the germ. The next step in the investiga- tion was to find out how this germ spreads from one person to another, because the germ must gct into the intestinal tract before one develops the disease. It was soon found that the typhoid or- ganism is spread by sewage pass-| ing out of the human hody and | contaminating food, water and milk. The lower animals | come infected with the typhoid but they can carry it their bodies and spread it through contaminating food supplies. Some people who re- cover from typhoid fever carry the germs about in their bodies and act as typhold carriers. Flies| serve as carriers of infection. In the combat against typhoid | fever, modern Aacientific medicine controls the condition by elim- inating flies; by controlling milk, water and food supplies, and by proper treatment of the typhoid carrier. Whea a person is sick with typhoid fever, all his excre- tions are disinfected before they are disposed of. | It the battle against infectious | diseases, the greatest enemy that science has to overcome is igno- | rance and superstition. As long as there are people who helieve that | typhoid fever is due to dead weeds and fish in the water. the attempt to control the discase by | scientific saditation will be difficull. | do ot he-| about in ROSE LICE | Rose bushes can be cleared of | lice by washing the bushes in a | thick suds of soap and tobacco.
