husband in my arms. His pulse as feeble and high. But he was alive.
 I raised him, as best I could, and strengthened his limbs tenderly, ar ranged a pillow, and spread cover over him. Then I phoned to Ann to call the family doctor, and to send one Of Jims nurses immediately.
 Then water, between Bob's lips; a loosened collar, restoratives and all the little first aids I had once considered so important but which appeared futile in the hour of my great need.
 Nothing I could do would bring Bob out of the stupor. Perhaps he never would waken! Per haps he would die and our misunder- standing would remain unexplained forever!
 Never had I loved my husband so de- votedly. Not until too late did real ize how much loved him. If he lived, I would spend all the days of my life caring for hin-if Ire lived-no matter how little he might care about me! At last I had discovered the meaning of the only love which is worth while. ! Even as held Bob's hand, and i brooded over him, my brain shaped the words of a precious definition of true love:
 Love seeketh not itself to please. Nor for itself hath any care, i But for another gives it's ease ! And builds q Heaven in Hell's despair" I would build a Heaven in Helrs despair--if Bob ever came back 10 me from the dreaded stiffness which bound
 his spirit and shut 1t away from mine. I sealed my VOW with kisses on his

 To prevent a blister from forming over burn try mixing equal parts of eggs white and olive oil. Apply at once, cover with soft linen. Eggs may be high but it's worth the price of an Hsag white to forestall a blister and the resultant inconvenience and discom- fort.
 MENU FOR TOMORROW BREAKFAST-Sli bananas with uncooked cereal, scrambled eggs with dried beef, toast, coffee.
 LUNCHEON-Bake beans, brown bread and butter, pickles, tea.
 DINNER--F'ried chicken with stuffed peppers, pineapple salad floating isl- and, sponge cake, coffee

MUCH COMMENT
IN ENGLAND ON
GAS RESEARCH
Lloyd George Says Country
Must Be Prepared And
Be With Times

London, Nov. 15.-Much adverse
comment has been caused by the an
nouncement att a scientific meeting
Saturday that the war office had re-
qucsted the universities to undertake
research into the develoment of
chemical warfare for both offensive
and defensive purposes.
The question was raised by inter-
rogations in the, house committee to-
day, asking how the government
r~econc.led this order with Article III
of the peace treaty, under which the
use of asphyxiating, poisonous or
other gases and all analogous linuids,
materials or devices is prohibited.
and whether the Investigations would
be governed by similars declaration
by the council Of the League Of Ma
lions.
Premier Lloyd George replying, said
that the whole subject of chemical
warfare had been under consideration
by the government for a year. 1t
was a question in which any action
must depend on hat Of other nations,
and as other countries continued to
develop this method the safety of the
Bri ish fighting services would be
seriously jeopardized by lack of SINH
lar develoments.
Would Have to Reconsider.
The subject, he added, would, of
course. have to be reconsidered when
the League of Nations made it's ex-
pected pronouncenent. }@
Chemical research as related to
dyestuffs is one.g greatly agitated in a
section of the press since tho war. al
though this subject was not mention
cd i'll the interrogations today, 1t
been argued Germany by her ex-
tensive dEestuff factories and her re-
search was able to turn her enormous
chemical resources to chemical war
fare and it has been commended that
Great Britain ought therefore to de-
velop the dyestuff industry.
