beth, thought of the boy returned with
increasing persistency. 1t would seem
so good to have young life in the house,
to have his boy there always, and a
whole string of other boys sometimes,
and be young with them all again.
During the interminably long, empty
days he revolved the thing over and
over in his mind, until, one day, the
restlessness overcame him entirely.
Telling his wife that he had been
called away on some urgent business
tnat would require his attention for a
train, and in the course of few days
landed on the Chihuahua sands IN.
once at the station ne hired a riy
and drove across the plains to his
former home. InQuiring cautiously at
nelghbor's as to who lived on the
old Leeks place, he found that
strangers owned his former home;
tnat his wife was buried beside the
mound that was supposed to be his:
and that his boy, who was described
as very promising lad, was in some
college in the States.
For week he stayed, going over
the once familiar scenes. But the
place seemed strange to him, the men
rough and the women simple The
soul had gone out of things, and, try
as he might, he could not put life in
them.
Again he rode swiftly down to the
dry arroyo, across the low mesquite
to where the trail led into the noun
tains, and crossed the American line.
Once over, he pulled up and looked
back at the forbidding black sills that
shut in his dreams
w.
1t was commencement day. Chad
Leeks was valedictorian. At the close
of the exercises, the elder Chad went
up and introduced himself to the
younger man as friend of his fa-
ther.
I'm glad you knew him. the boy
replied heartily. my mother could
not die in peace until l promised to
graduate at the same college that he
attended. She thought it might help
me to become the man he was"
With sigh the elder man turned
away. He would rather die than al
low the boy to be disillusioned
"She-wanted-him to become-the
is-father-was," he mused bit
terly as he boarded a home-boInd
train.

COMBAT GERMS OF DISEASE
That Is Depended on to Pro-
duce Results.

Tuberculosis Sunday, November
~, 1914, saw the birth of new and
striking public health phrase" says
Dr. ii. W. Hill of the Minnesota
Public Health association. "It was
coined not by public health expert
out by Presbyterian minister in his
tuberculosis Sunday prayer. This
phrase Intelligent Cleanliness will
become public health slogan for the
future, because it sets forth sharply
ana emphatically the distinction be-
tween mere esthetic cleanliness and
that which avoids disease. Scrub
blng floors AMI cleaning windows
makes life more comfortable, pleas
anter and more efficient, but it is as
useless a weapon against water-borne
typhoid as scrubbing a ships deck
would be in stopping leak. When
disease breaks out in community
the first thing to do is to take intelli-
gent measures for combating that
particular outbreak, not an outbreak
in some other place. Intelligently to
attack and destroy germs of disease
where they exist is intelligent clean
illness. The boiling of water is ef-
fective only if water be the route by
which the germs are travelling from
one person to another. If milk
should happen to be the material
which carries the disease, boiling the
water is very unintelligent attempt
at useful cleanliness"
