He was moving away from the
door when someone knocked. "A

Philip took the envelope from the
tray; he wondered who on earth it
could be from. He had not given
their address to anyone; he supposed
Eva must have done so.
He read the message through

the message to his wife.

The miserable day was drawing
rapidly to a close as the train crept
into the station. The windows of
the carriage were dimmed with
rain, and the countryside through
which they had passed was soaked
and depressing.
Phillip had hardly spoken since
he had given Cslligan's wire. to his
wife to read.
Eva tried to tell him how sorry
she was; had tried to cheer him
up--to assure him that his father
would probably be better when
they reached home: but he hardly
seemed to listen to her.
She knew that Phi-p had thought
the world OF the old man, and for
the first time since their marriage
something of her old feeling for
her husband stirred in her heart,
and crept through the pride and
pain that had numbed her.
She looked at him as he sat OPP

saw the worry in his eyes, and with
sudden impulse she leaned over and
touched his hand.

n E OSI or the infectious dis
N eases common to childhood
are not to be regarded light
ly. Several Of them may be headed
off by preventive measures or dealt
with successfully during their
course, while others can only be
checked by watching carefully the
general health of a child, in order
that his resistance shall be as high
as possible.
Care that children do not come
into contact with other children suf-
fering from infectious diseases or
still in the convalescent period is
another very essential point in
avoiding disease.
Intelligence and thoughtfulness
on the part of the parents of a child
already infected will do much to
protect other children in the neigh
borhood. Proper food keeps a child
in good physical condition and in
creases his resistance to disease.
Fresh air and plenty of sleep are
also factors in fighting infection.

looked upon as a mild infection by
many parents is mumps. This dis
ease very often does not receive the
attention 1t should in view of some
of the serious results
Mumps may develop from ten to
twenty-one days after the child is
exposed to the germ through con-
tact with some other child suffering
from the disease. Babies do not
often contract mumps, and 1t is most
common between the ages of five
and fifteen, occurring with the
greatest frequency in the spring and
fall months.
The symptoms of mumps first
show themselves in pain and stiff
ness behind the lower jaw and un-
der the ear. followed by broad
swelling of the cheek, and later on
the other cheek may begin to swell.
Eating and drinking increase the
pain, making the disease a particu-
larly unpleasant one.
Complications OF the disease are
high fever, delirium from brain in
volvement and deafness. Deafness
from mumps may be permanent.
and for this reason, and also be-
cause of possible damage done to
other important organs, the dis
ease should be carefully watched.

sand people of a suburban
town have been engrossed in
the kite business as an amateur
sport and a fine game for boys
And today 1 saw them put on a
kite tournament tnat occasioned
almost as much excitement as a
big circus day.
At this event there were long
lines of competitors for the many
attractive prizes. while the kites
showed all the varieties of skill
known to the boy branch of -avia-
ton
There were big kites and little
kites, tall kites and box kites.
Some OF the last named were ten
feet in length and exerted pull
of many pounds while borne by a
stiff breeze.
Quickly following the signal for
the start of each competitive event
the air was filled with the winged
playthings while the excited young
performers raced against the
breeze on n large meadow. Faith
ers. mothers, press writer's, pho
tographers and even farmers, came
crowding into this interesting sport
arena for their part as spectators
in the game
But the significant feature of the
kite tournament lay entirely in the
background of preparation for the
event. For six weeks past, kite
making and testing had consumed
the spare time OF all the boys of
the barefoot age and older.
They had lost their interest in
fighting; they had forgot their
usual marauding; they had spent
their evenings at home working
eagerly to learn the new art of kite
making and to get machine"
ready for the competition.

moral force that has struck the boys
