His cousin noticed the restraint he
sought to exercise over his excitement,
and her thoughts reverted to the dread
tragedy, from which they were seldom
absent But she made no reply until the
maid had left the room. when Olive
Dumbarton turned to him expectantly,

scarcely knew how to begin, until sud-
denly he plunged into his subject, say
ing:

surprised by his question
you were not likely to have seen
him. he has met with an accident of

lest it might add to your worries"
Nothing serious, l hope she said
quickly.
He noticed the sudden anxiety which
came into her face and that her hand
trembled, and, resenting this betrayal Of
her concern. he said, roughly:
Serious enough; a kick from a
horses hoof has caused a compound
fracture of the skull
"Oh, how terrible!' Veronica ex-
claimed. pityingly
Olive Dumbarton said nothing, but
the sudden pallor of her face and the
pressure Of her hand above the region
of her heart told what she felt

Got a Good Meal Cheap.

A good story is told in connection
with the last Ascot race meetings,
says a London paper. An American
who was used to going into racing
booths in his own country, ordering
luncheon and paving a dollar, found
himself hungry at the royal meet
ing, so he walked into the first tent
handy and told the attendant to
give him something to eat. The
man put a sumptuous luncheon be-
fore him, to which as well as to the
champagne the visitor did ample
justice. He then handed the at
tendant 5 shillings, received his
thanks and was bowed out Of the
tent, inwardly congratulating him
self on the moderateness of the
charge. An English friend whom
he met outside said, 81 did not
know you were acquainted with
Lord H." "Neither am l." replied
the Bostonian. ooh, l beg your
pardon" said his interrogation. IL
thought you were, as you came out

A tuberculosis Test.

A consular report gives p~articu-
lars of a method by which the exist
nee of tuberculosis can be detected
and which was made known at a re-
cent meeting Of the French Acade-
mic des Sciences in Paris. 1t con-
sists in inoculating the patient, as
in vaccination, with a few drops of
the tuberculin of Koch. If tuber-
culosis does not exist, the little in
cision heals rapidly, but if, on the
other hand, the patient is affected
with the slightest trace of the dis
ease, although it may not be reveal
ed by any tangible symptom, the in
cision rubbed with the tuberculin
becomes infamed, and in from five
to six days a pustule similar to that
Of vaccine appears, running its
course in four or five days.

II YOU are fat-uncomfortably

declaration of no less famous a sci

Sickness often makes people thin,
he declares. It also makes them
fat. If after recovery from a NAL
ady you begin suddenly to take on
flesh and assume unusual proper
lions, look out. It is a dangerous
sign. Fat people who suffer from
short breath are most likely to be

he had delighted and amused base

1t was considered something to

ambitious novitiates in fandom were
accustomed to wait for him to put
his stamp of approval on a throw,
hit or catch before they joined in.
The popularity of old Well-Well
