IEARLY CAPSIZE OFF NEW ENGLAND COAST.

> We finished our visit in London
and came home. That summer
we were up in New England and
naturally stayed at the sea-shore.
80 that Bobby could have a good
summers fishing.
I rented a nice little motor
boat and every day we were out
in the bay fishing. On good days
we went outside on the ocean.
On one particularly fine day.
late in August, we started out
and the water was 80 calm that
I made right for the sea, hoping
to get a good catch of blue-fish.
Through the water we sped and
out to the fishing banks.
We were sitting there as quiet
as three mice. The soft wind
blew in our faces and the boat
rocked gently on the calm sur
face Of the ocean.
Suddenly the boat gave a ter
rific luch- I was thrown clear
across to the other side and
landed with a bang up against
the gunwale. Bobby was thrown
in the bottom Of the boat, for
tunately and when looked for
Bunny he was all tangled up in
the anchor rope.
"A whale must have bumped
us!' gasped Bobby.
Wasn't a whale" shouted
Bunny, disentangling himself from
the coil Of rope and smoothing
his ears.
What was it," I asked.
Look" said Bunny. Sword.
fish.
There. damned right through
the side Of our boat, was a long
spear of ivory! 1 tried to loosen
it, but was damned in so tightly
that l couldn't bulge it. But
that was a good thing, because it
was below the Water-line and we
might have sunk if it hadn't held.
81 think it's time to go home"
I said. THAT swordfish has lost
his weapon. But he might have
some friends with him."
1--WE nearly upset, Foxy Grand
pa" said Bobby as I turned the
engine over.
I'VE had a close shave" l
agreed.
Lets take our sword to the
Museum of Natural History in
New York." said Bobby as l took
the wheel and headed toward
shore.

Dressings are made sterile by
either of two means: First. the
application OF heat either by

use Of steam under high pressure
for ten minutes. Second, the use
Of chemical disinfectants such as

you buy may be used with conf
dence II you are careful not to
contaminate them In handling.
Doctor Ernest w. Miller, q dis
tinguished Industrial surgeon, in
an article in 1.-THE Nations
Health" makes the distinction
between the various dressings
clear as follows:
BY moist dressing he means
some surgical gauze wrung out
tightly from a boric acid solution,
such dressing to be applied to the
wound and covered with gutta
percha tissue, waxed paper. oiled
skin, celIulose or some other ma.
terial quite impervious to the
solution OF boric acid. and this
entire dressing to be comfortably
held in place by proper bandag'
ing.
BY wet dressing he means .
boric acid solution out of which
a surgical dressing has been very
loosely wrung in which a con.
siderable quantity Of the bcric
acid solution is allowed to remain
in the surgical gauze. This dress
ing is applied without an inper-
vious covering. ana Is, OF coursey

ADVICE TO THE
LOVELORN
b Beatrice Fairfax
Having Men Friends
MISS FAIRFAX:


DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
~ I am a girl Of twenty. I've
been going about with man al
most q year. He never speaks
Of marriage-in fact, he says has
no intention Of marrying. We
? enjoy each others company very
much and think great deal Of
one another.
Recently met another man
who has been calling on me and
spending considerable time with
me.
My mother tells me that am
not doing what is right by the
first In going out with the sec.
ond. There never was any un-
derstanding between US, and she
knows It. She says she will tell
the first all about the second and
break the friendship.
The fact that am only twenty
makes me think that should not
tie myself to one man who has
no intention of marriage. Don't
you think 1 am justified in going
out with both as I am not en-
gagged to either H. c. K.
I'm sure IL you explain to your
J. mother that the young man
who first began calling on you
has told you frankly that he has
no intention of marrying she will
no object to your going about
with other men. In fact, it's
customary for a girl who is not
engaged to accept invitations
freely from all her men friends.
However, there's no reason for
deceiving either man into think
ing that you never accept atten-
ton from other men. Even
though the first young man learns
about the second, this should not
interfere with your friendship for
either.

DOBBY, Bunny and were in
~ London and one of the
first things we did was to go to
the British Museum there, to see
all Of the wonderful things
which are collected in that great
building.
AS we were walking through
one Of the galleries, Bobby stop
ped short and said
Whats that. Foxy Grandpa"
The object of his interest was
thick plank Of wood and through
it was a long sharp tusk, SO 1t
appeared to me. / read the plate
OF explanation under the plank
and then 1 said:
THAT is the weapon of
swordfish, Bobby, and the plank
is that of an old sailing ship.
Just think that sword has been
driven through twenty-five inches
Of hard wood"
"Who put It in?" asked Bobby.
"The swordfish," I replied.
"Whew," exclaimed the little
boy. Does that thing grow on
the swordfish, Foxy Grandpa?"
ut does" I answered. Sword
fish grow to be very large, some
times they measure fifteen feet
in length. They are very savage
fellows, l can tell you"
But why do they stab boats?"
inquired Bobby.
ut is thought that the sword
fish mistake boats for whales.
Because several swordfish easily
kill a whale when they attack
It.

She dropped on her knees and
wound her arms about the little
boy. Her hair had strayed across
her forehead. With sharp, poking
fingers he tweaked it back. He
told her calmly: you pitty-I fink
you putty muvver." She felt the
warm, moist lips against her
throat. She thought with an ach.
ing love: "For you, darling. dar.
ling! For you, little one!"
Frames Words.
It was twenty minutes to 6
when she. left the house in =
taxi. She said to Danes moth
err: ST may not he home till
after 8. Ellen will put Sonny
to bed"
The older woman gave her a
sharp, disappearing look and
waited for some explanation.
Nora Lee said:> II have an
appointment in town at o'clock.
Good-by, dear"
She had taken the letter with
her-Natalie's revealing confes-
sion. Dane would be alone in
the office most likely. She would
quietly lay the crumpled sheet
in his hand. She would say:
"You dropped this in the morn
ing, Dane. 1 found 1t. have
read. it. So I've come to ask
you about it. can realize that
it has troubled you. But, OH
you won't-you won't do this
thing, Dane"
Even thinking of this, her lips
moved pathetically; her thought
went blind with anguish. She
prayed for courage and poise-
for but the grace to say the
trenchant word.
When she stepped from the
elevator at his floor. she went
in the opposite direction, fighting
to steady herself; mastering a
quiet poise. Better not to plead.
No! She would merely say:
'T have only come to tell you,
Dane, that and our son are
concerned in this question as
well as you. If you have been
touched by this letter: and If
your pity for Natalie Is so great
that you have considered her plea
and mean to grant it, why
them"
Plan to Leave.
She leaned against the wall, Bit
ing her lips, feeling it a. wretched
treason even for a moment to sup
pose he was to yield. Then she
went on with this valiant speech:
why, then, want you to know
that 1 am no longer your wife
and Sonny is NINE! Not be-
cause 1 am the mother, but be-
cause I would not jeopardize his
future for my own pleasure or
my own pity or to ease my mind
of a troublesome problem. So
if you are to do this, we shall
leave you. And we will not be
here when you return. And you
will never see US again"
She wiped her face-dusted her
face with powder. He would see
she was overweight. No matter!
She glided to the door, knocked
softly, seeing a dark form within.
The form moved toward her,
opened the door. "No-Mr. Her
rick's not here" A worn old
woman who acted as janitress
spoke. She wore a checked blue
apron and pushed a cart filled
with brooms and dustcIoths and
pals toward the hall. He left
just as i came to his room
about fifteen minutes ago No,
there wasn't no one with him
and he didn't say if he'd be
back"
