HEALTH PENALTIES

A persons highest ambition should be to have a character above reproach and a physical body able to meet every requirement that sane, normal man or woman calls for in perfect health.
 One of the penalties of @ life that fails to satisfy the person who has permitted himself to fall into vicious habits is the general weakness that nature imposes upon him, both in body and mind. The weakening body calls for lessening brain power, as his physical condition worries him to the extent Of cerebral inactivity to make provisions for sickness and old age.
 Fear scizes him and as a result he becomes unable to put forth the men, tal or physical effort which counts. He is in the grip of fear that paralyzes because it offers no avenue of escape
 Then there is the penalty of losing ones position in life. A man who is weak, fussy or worried, lacks stami- ma to hold his place in business or so- ciety. He cannot resist fatigue, he falters, he lacks courage and per- sistency. The result is failure, through wrong habits and careless living.
 The habit of keeping your physical condition at its best makes for a hap py life. The penalty of loss of sight, good digestion or locomotive power is sure to follow if you break the rules Of hygiene and health,

 Taking the Shortest Way
 This road is neither so good nor so picturesquf as the north side route" I explained regretfully, but it is a much shorter connection to the Flushing road. l should have liked to have shown you some of the picturesque towns of the north side but we shall come out at Huntington, and from there on the road winds through fairyland 8 good deal of the way"
 "Oh, what do we care for scenery!" Harriet exclaimed impatiently. ''I know that l for one won't have a minute to think of it. The shortest road is the thing"
 And that's what We have before us,' I repeated cheerily, repressing the impulse of a tart answer to which her impatience tempted me. But I rejected that she was under even a greater strain than I, and I resolved that no matter what the provocation I would keep my boise undlSturDed.
 But despite her protests, I was amused to discover that she was not proof against the austere beauty of the winter woods silhouetted against water and sky when after a trip through the dreary, baked desert of the middle island We came out upon the stretches of the north shore roads between Huntington and Flushing. Loveliest of regions in spring. sum- mer and autumn, it has its own pe- culiar charm for the beauty lover even in winter, with the trees stark and bare. I was not surprised to hear my didactie sister-in-law catch her breath as we came out upon a peculiarly ex- quisite bit. and say:
 You are right, Margaret. This is wonderful

DOUBLE MURDER IN
 CHICAGO MYSTIFIES
Woman Killed in Apartment.
 Mans Body in SnoWdrift

Chicago, Feb. 23.-A double mur- der mystery Involving the theories of bootleg killing, revenge or domestic tives seeking clues to the slayers Of John Duffy. found in d roadside snow drift al Argo, Ill.,, early yesterday. and a woman, partly identified as Mrs. Duffy, found last night in an excel- lently furnished apartment Duffy shared with Mir. and Mrs. Cecil C. Horton.
 Shot Through Head.
 The woman's body, bullet through her head. was discovered when police after an all-day vigil in front Of the Horton home, forced the door. She was lying on a Davenport and may have been shot while sleeping, detec- itNes say Remnants of food on a table. cigarette ends and whiskey bot ties indicated that several persons had been in the apartment
 A search was started for Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Horton, thought to have left ten days ago on an automobile trip to Detroit and since returned, al- though papers and letters in the apartment indicated that the dead woman may be Mrs. Horton. .
 Married Suddenly.
 Police learned from letters that the dead woman formerly lived at AT South Third street, Louisville. Ky. where she was known as Miss Exley and Miss Virginia James, and at some

 The more 1 sec Of men--aud the more I hear about them---ihc nearer 1 come to thinking there is no par ticular difference between men and women. Mems animal qualities may be little stronger, but in all human and psychological attributes they are the same.
 What you say about Paula Perier is also most astounding. l remem- Der her when visited in Albany some years ago. She was then thought 10 be extremely beautiful, but an cx- tremely frivolous girl. Much was for given her because she had 10 earn her own living. Many of her sensational actions were excused because she was French.
 I cannot imagine her anything like you describe as "a woman who has come out of the fiery furnace Of suf- fering, refined and made better"
 That's all right, my dear. as far as it goes. If experience does not make us better t always makes us worse. There is no such thing as a character standing still, you know.
 However, I'm afraid I would never have invited that woman to my house if I thought the child l had adopted was the child she had abandoned. do not consider myself below the av- craze woman in sympathy and under standing, Leslie, but honestly I never could have sympathized enough with Paula Perier to ask her to take that child in her arms, knowing sll the time she was its mother.
 I guess I'm old-fashioned, Leslie, but I still have a kind Of queer feel ing when I meet--as one does often lately-a woman who through a great love or a great mistake has strayed from the strict path Of virtue.
 I sometimes wonder if that crown of glory has been lost entirely that vas always supposed 10 have been the halo surrounding the Eirtuous woman. Nowadays we seem to make no difference between her and her unchasts sister.
 When you take away the feeling that a spotiess reputation is nothing particularly to be deserved. you take away the foundation of society.
 Probably Dick and I would never have hit 1t off together after his movie experience. I should always feel I could not trust him. I should always feel he was probably keeping some thing in his mind very different from that which he was telling me.
 I am glad, however. you saw him and told me all about ii. It breaks another link of the chain between us.

When sny one has a whole lot of rice things 10 cat, and is so selfish and stingy he will not share his good ies with another. especially his own puppy dog, then it is no wonder that he has a stomach ache.
 And that is just what the mean old magician got, great big stomach ache and or course it served him just right.
 The magician sat down upon the floor in the prison cell in the nice Tai poiicenan's house and howled and hoy1ed. An his puppy dog, Hector, jumped up and down outside the bars and parked and parked.
 Then, after awhile the magician quit crying for his stomachache had left. 'I wish you would run home. Hector, and get me my magical book: it is on the table in the parlor."
 Hector. the puppy dog, did not un- derstand what his master said at first. but after awhile he ran out the door and soon returned with the magician's look of magic.
 Now. as every one knows. when a Ndc a R01H 0A hoSANg 4AE can read in it and find out how to work all sorts of magical charms. so the magician lost no time in reading how to escape from a prison.
 At first, he thought Of changing himself into a mouse and climbing through the bars of the cell and had almost said the magic words to make the change when the happened to think. No! If do that, Hector will not know the mouse is his master and may catch the mouse and eat t: Then I would be in a fine fix! No. that would never do."
 Then the mean magician thought he would change himself into a cat and squeeze through the bars. And he had almost said the magic words when he thought, No. 1T l do that. Hector will chase me up tree! I must think of something else"
 But though he thought and thought, he could not think of any kind of animal to change himself in- 10 and he began to think that perhaps he would not be able to escape from hts prison by his magic after all when he thought of a plan. T can make

 So he read how to do this magical thing and in a few seconds, he was out Of the prison cell.
 Then it was easy for him to change himself back into his own size again. Hector the puppy dog was very glad his master the wicked magician. was free again, for puppy dog. you know is always faithful to his master, no matter how badly that master may treat him. So Hector jumped up and parked joyfully and ran in circles all around the magician as the old man

 do not think l ever slept so soundy as 1 did in the hostelry al Riverside. following our drive through the fog. 1 did not realize how the strain of being at the wheel had fa- tigued me until l literally fell into bed without knowing whether my head touched the pillow" or not.
 We had been fortunate enough to secure communicating rooms, the one which the children occupied ly- ing between mine and that of the Braithwaites. But whether the chil- dren slept or were restless mat tered nothing to me. 1 lay drugged with slumber until the grasp of a hand on my shoulder, gently shak- ing me, brought me bolt upright in unreasoning panic.
 Hush - Harriet said smiling at me. Don't wake the children yet. But Edwin said you wished to start as early as possible, so I thiught I'd rouse you.''
 Thank you," I stammered. T be- lieve l would have slept until noon if you hadn't wakened me-

 Edwin is all dressed, ready 10 go out and get hot coffee ioi us and warm milk for the youngsters" Har- Tit returned, and he can nave them cleansed at the restaurant---therc IS one here. I suppose. That was some- thing he wished me to ask yoJ."
 ''oh, yes, a very good .'no," I paused in my rapid dressing 10 give Ter minute directions for the ilnding Of the restaurant, and with the vacuum bottle in her hands she hurried out of the room.
 Don't show these children in any public dining roon--indeed, in any places more than you can help un- tit you have thom safe on board ship" This was Lillian's emphatic parting admonition, and se were needing it strictly. By the tune Ed win returned with the hot coffee and milk, Harriet and I, working swiftly, had assisted tho children with their dressing, and after a hurried but satisfactory breakfast from the rem nants of Katie's lunch, I went to the garage nearby where I had left the car and brought 1t to the door. lf8rriet and tho children, the latter wide-eyed and excited, but obediently aoiet, awaited us.
 There were but two or three auto- mobiles in the streets, all of them appearing to belong to the section. but l scanned each one searchingly md nervously, and was glad indeed when we finally got under way, and, speeding down the village street, tuiied inte the middle island road,

 Just you wait. Hector puppy dog!" the magician said as he winked his eye slyIy at Hector. "As soon as I get home. I shall make lot of magical goodies which we will take to the Hoolygooly's home and feed to Rag gedy Ann, Raggedy Andy and the fat policeman and the HoolygOolys and change them all into strange, animals. then you can have fun chasing them through the woods."
