Treatment of a

and strong dislikes. and eat little

does this condition manifest itself Ms
much as during the meal time. These
tendencies should he overcome by the
supplying Of suitable food and Insist on
Its being eaten slowly.
Meat but four times a week, and then
hut once a day. Is advisable. Too much
beef should be avoided, and eggs and
milk should be given freely, the latter
"coddled' or quite raw. Beaten up with
sugar alone or with sugar and q teaspoon
full Of lemon Juice, or with sugar and a
small amount Of salt and poured into
good-sized cupful OF warm milk an egg
makes quite meal. Sweetened choco-
late is good when served with milk to a
nervous child
Whipped cream can often be substituted
for milk, when the children are fond Of
1t. When children have to be coaxed
and bribed to eat anything-as is often
the case-the1e are all sorts OF ways and
means. Catering Of this description and
serving meals III this way takes time

leave he had just time t. catch car
for Mrs. Suburbanite's. He'd been very
careful Of what he drank and the guam
tity. So he was really not under the
weather. simply -well-jovial.
1t took some little while to say goodby
When he finally went to catch his car
he couldn't catch 1t. He had missed 1t
by two minutes. After n half-hour wait
another came along
Mr.. ]. arrived at Mrs. Suburbantte's
fully 20 minutes late for dinner-a most
unusual thing for him.
As he hurried to the dinlng-ro and
slipped quietly into his seat he saw the
eagle eye Of Miss McWherter glued upon
him. He saw her nudge the old-maid
friend on her left and whisper to her.
He couldn't hear what she said hut he'd
have bet his months salary 1t was some
thing like:
Look at that borrid Justwed man
twenty minutes late because his wife's
away! Mark my words. Angela, he
won't be home at all tomorrow evening""
"Whew!" said Mr. ]. to himself, I'm
glad they can't smell my BREATH"

from the bank to play tennis with sew
eral Of the men who left their Offices
early for the same reason. He dotfed
his street clothes In a hurry and rooted
around in the closet until he found his

third one and deliberately jerked 1t out
and e.nptied 1t. Still. no hiatt
Twenty minutes later, as he was sit
ting on the edge of the trunk trying to
Imagine where it could be. he happened
to glance behind him. There was the
/ hat-stufred In between the trunk and
the wall
For goodness sake"' he exclaimed,
what in the world did Blossom put It
there for?"
But Blossom hadn't placed 1t there, as
he remembered presently. She always
had 1t ready for him on the top shelf
In the closet. He remembered now, he'd
hurled 1t there himself when he last
used It!
After dinner that evening he stole of
quietly and took car for town. There
was n little session" arranged for up
to Al. Spinker's domicile, and Mr. J.
had been invited to sit in-along with
several other benedicts whose wives had
gone to the country Fine business!
The first chance he'd had to play the
little game Of draw" In 4 month Of
| Sundays!
The first hour or so Of play was all to
the merry. Plenty to eat, plenty to
drink, plenty to smoke and no end Of
| for long while. At midnight Mr.. J.
Started to break away. But there was
nothing doing. The others wouldn't
stand for 1t.
At precisely A. NJ. that morning Mr..
J. boarded car for Mrs. Suburbanite's.
"Confound It," he growled to himself. III
1t wasn't for that dem McWherter cat I
wouldn't 60 out at all. I've got to get
there in time for breakfast, however, or
she'll break her neck to tell Blossom
about it!''
He entered the dining.room looking as
fresh and rested as he could-but Miss
McWherter seemed to have Ar sus-
picions.
At 4 o'clock that afternoon a worn,
tired man dragged himself YEARLY into
the telegraph Office. He looked like the
last rose Of summer-and felt worse.
SEEKING a telegraph blank he scribbled
hastily, in Z shaking hand:

come quick. HOMER"
Then he went straight home to Mrs.
Suburbanites and, pulling the covers up
over his head, meditated upon the Joys
Of ''single blessedness.'
