do his bit. To be sure he was tiny
lad, but understood many things for his
Wee number Of years. After sitting thus
Tor several minutes ne ran to the farm
house Kitchen, where his sister, May,

Jackie heard Just what he had often

put JACK in the car beside himself and
headed Tor town. The ear stopped in

that that meant more thrift stamps,

Two hours later. May blushed when
Jackie said. what you got on that

felt cross with Billy she did want to

Against Jackie's will he went TO bed
at his usual time, but he surely rhought
that he was going to miss something,
and 50 uneasy was his mind that at 10
O'Clock he crcpt down stairs, and peeped
into the living room. one look was
enough. and he turned from the window
softly, saying To- himself, I've done my

So Jackie helped himself to more

happy dreams of eating ice cream soda

Experiments

A doctor, if he is good doctor, is
by nature averse to experimenting up
on his patients. This is no Topographic
cal error. A doctor really hates to ex-
pertinent upon anybody But every
body certainly loves to be experiment
ed on, and the doctor is sometimes
forced to do it, or else become unpop-
ular. That's the honest truth. If a
doctor refuses under any circum-
stances to experiment unnecessarily
upon his patients, people call him q
crank, crab, mean, unaccommodat
ing sort of man. They declare that he
attempts to magnify your minor all
ments into major ones, if you give hin
the chance.
Let's take plain example. Yor
