 ''Is this MT Gwlliams?' inquired the caller, a snug parsonage of self-pos- sessed bearing and business-like aspect, addressing himself to the somewhat an gular, elongated man seated at the roll topped desk
 ''Yes, sir
 Glad to know you, MT, Civilians. My name is Scorjel-Godfrey Scorjel' I see you are busy, and l am not the man to take up another mans tune without some good reasons for 1t. Are you carrying all the life insurance you want, MT. Civilians?

 But passing by the mere question ol figures, M. Scorjel, yet us consider oxy- gen in its relation to the blood. The oxygen is taken up by the lungs and | carried off in the arterial circulation | imparting to the blood in the process the bright red color"
