Sydney Carton.
 My Dear Syd: It is a long tune xince have written you. You Will remember that in your last letter to me. however, you wrote some very harsh things about me and my con- duct and you told me not to write you asking you to help me out ot anything as long as I lived.
 Some of the things you said to me then, syd, perhaps l deserved But do have to tell you, old man, that am not wholly bad? Do you not know some good qualities that are mine? You've called me friend a rood many years, and am not sure that you would even speak to the kind of man your letter intimated that I was.
 really have some good points. At least I have been told so, and while I am not greatly stuck up on myself, I think I can stack up against most of the fellows of my acquaintance yes, even you.
 My virtues are not the same as yours and you are probably saying to yourself as you read this, Thank God, my vices are not similar to Jacks"
 I pride myself on being 8 regular fellow. I do not break my word tt any man. Sometimes have to break it to woman. Women are such i'm, possible things, you cant help lying to them.

Every human being is a pot boiling with desires, passions, lusts, wishes, purposes, ideas and emo tions," Mrs. Mann quoted from a mental hygiene authority.
 Some of these the person clearly recognizes. and admits, and some the person does not recognize and denies them"
 Often these passions, desires and emotions are not in harmony with each other, and often one has to be smothered for the sake of aother.
 Thus an illicit forbidden love has to be conquered for the sake ot the purpose to be religious or good, or the desire 10 be respected.
New Britain herald., 1925-04-07
ON HEALrH------ CONFLICT OF EMOTIONS

Sometimes this snothering of a raging desire or passion is not the easiest thing to do, and in the at- tempt one often assumes an outward appearance, entirely different from ones inermost feelings.
 Thus it is that some of the most apparently puritanical and pious men and women do things their acquaintances would not imagine them doing.
 And often this conflict of emotions becomes so intense in ones con- Fsciousess that the mind becomes unbalanced, and society calls the person insane.

Like d spoiled school hoy. his eyebrows knitted into a rrown. distinct. though slight and evaneScent, and as he turned quick ly to Katherine l was sure that the lips beneath his short, clipped moustachc held traces of an absurd boyish pout.

NIadge Gives Dr. Meredith a Chance
 to Talk with Katherine


 T did some quick and strenuous thinking as l followed Katherine and the physicians from the sick girls room. The girl having recovered con- sciousncss but not memory there was no danger in leaving her alone. She was too weak aud inert 10 get out of bed by herself, but she was also conscious enough so that she would not fall out, and one of Katherines chief anXicUcs was thus relieved.
 But my anxiety was only increased by the sudden necessity for decision upon my part 10 disclose or with hold my knowledge of the identity of the amnesia-strickcn girl whom Lillian had rescued. That Dr. Mer- edith's keen, highly-traincd mind had guessed that l possessed such A clue l was sure Though his re- quest for information left room for a denial on my part, the searching, speculative look accompanying his words precluded such a possibility.
 I knew, however, that l must not reveal my knowledge until had consulted Lillian. She had commit nicated Lee Chow's disclosure to me. but her swoon, though slight and brief, effectually had prevented any further revelation of her plans. I did not wish to interrupt the sleep into which I was sure she had fallen when I left her. Then l realized that she must be awakened anyway, for Katherine and had decided that Dr. Petit ought to see her. As soon as the door had closed upon the staring-eyed patient, ] turned to Dr. Petit.
 Dr. Meredith's Magnetism
 '1 cannot tell you anything con- eerning this girl until I have con- sulted Mrs. Underwood" I said firmly. But Mrs. Bickett and wish you to see her professionally with or without her consent. We are afraid she is on the verge of an other breakdown if radical meas ures are not taken. If you don mind. will you please come doWl to her room with me now"
 "Certainly." Dr. Petit gave hl' funny. stiff, title bow as he uttered the words, and I caught MT.
