he was well under her thumb, also
that she took pleasure in tormenting
him. I suspected that they had been
quarreling recently.

the girl, looking at him meaningly.
You are fond of watching the

the girl.
Her eyes flashed. Fond! Well, l

And got no use for cold feet nor
Clarences, neither" She looked indig-
nantly at the man in the bed.

They began to quarrel bitterly. It
was obvious to both of us that the girl
was racing "fan" of the worst kind.
No doubt the winner Of the Savannah
race-and it was conceded that this
would probably be Harris or Morton
would Gust the loser in her affections.
We left them arguing and wrangling,
and, when re were outside the hos
pitaI. Doctos Emmanuel confirmed my
theory.
"She is afperfect modern type Of

death to the vanquished gladiator
She is t1gress in a human frame
with all its savage cruelty. l am per
fectly sure that she would go delirious
with ecstacy if Harris and Morton
went crashing to their death at Sa.
Vannah. Such women seem to possess
an irresistible attraction for men of
mat type" he added. And yet they
have many good qualities. They make
faithful and admirable wives and
mothers. When they have chosen
their mates they cling to them through
thick and thin. l have no doubt that
nature, in creating such a bond be-
tween her HARNESSES and Mae Con-
nellys, has her wise purposes. But
Harris must not race at Savannah"
1T looks as though he meant to-"
replied.
If he races it means his DEATH" re-
sponded the doctor, and would say
no more.
But that evening at Tarrant's he
consented to make clear his mean
ing. l think it was Tarrants awak-
ened interest which convinced him
that we were sincere in our interroga-
lions. Crossing to the book shelves
again, the doctor took down the bulky
little volume in calfskin and read to
US the passage which he had picked
out the evening before. It was from a
Byzantium history.

judges have determined who had the
precedence. but just as the chariots
approached the judges stand, where
sat the emperor and his consort, Colu-

breadth, whereupon Hippias, swerving
drove his horses against his rivals.
Both chariots and horses went down
in an inextricable mass, and when the
spectators rushed to the scene it was
found that Hippias was dead. Colu-
Der, who escaped uniniured, received
the beautiful Iris from the hands of
Theodore herself"
The doctor closed the volume with
snap and replaced it on its shelf.
'If Harris drives at Savannah, he
dies" he said conyincingly. "The old
instinct survives-it must survive un-
til Harris develops from the half-ani-
NAL to the man. He is as savage
barbarian today as ever he was when
nursed by Bithynian mother. The
old instinct will awaken in him. He will
collide with Morton and die. Morton
will win the girl"
"You fail to allow for the accidents
of fortune, DOCTOR" said Tarrant.
There are no accidents" respond
ed Emmanuel quietly. Every external
event is nothing but the embodiment
of countless soul impulses made mani
fest in it. No, il Harris races Harris
will die"
We were neither of US disposed to
argue the matter with the doctor. We
were, indeed, bent upon concealing our
skepticism of the kindly little Greeks
theories. And yet, though neither of
us placed much stock in them, l con-
fess was alarmed when I read in the |
sporting columns of the American
People" three weeks later, that Harris |
would positively race at Savannah. |
And a few days later came the news |
that he was out of the hospital and |

STOP FLUSHING ABOUT HEALTH
Many People Worry Themselves Into
Illness by Constantly Having 1t
in Their Thoughts.

In advising people how to escape
| disease, a noted physician said not
| long ago that "sOme people give too
much thought to the question of
health. They are forever fussing
about their health" he said, "and live
in perpetual and irrational dread of
disease. Indeed they may actually
make themselves ill by their morbid
fear of illness.
The physician does not discount the
advantages of complying with the well
understood rules of hygiene and SAM
tation. He knows that many people
ruin their health by overindulgence in
1000 or drink, or both; he does not
minimize the Importance of taking the
best of care of oneself at all times.
But he has hit upon a fundamental
truth when he says many people make
themselves ill by morbid fear of ill.

Weeks had been visiting relatives and
friends in Nebraska, for four weeks.
Dean W. M. Jardine, of the Kan

potatoes can be profitable grown in
Western Kansas, and the Station will
devote an area of ground to this crop.
Mr.. VIM Kiser, who worked at the
Station during harvest last summer
has just returned to Hays, after q
trip to China, and is again working
at the Station.
superintendent Weeks spent Thurs
