Your Health How to Keep It.

 Medical Association and of

 At present there Is no treatment for tumor of the breast. except early diagnosis and prompt surgical re- moval. The average person who discovers a lump Is likely to delay. Dr. William F. Wild points out, in most of the instances recorded by the American Society for the Con- trol of Cancer, the woman who first discovered the lump asked the ad- vice of her mother or another rela- tive. who likewise examined 1t. and then consulted neighbors and thing that she already knew, name- ly. that she had lump.
 Touch Irritates It
 Cancer is a disease which tends to become worse on irritation and manipulation. Repeated attempts to press upon or feel the lump in the breast. unless done by physician in the course of a diagnosis. serve only to irritate them and perhaps 70 spread the disease.
 When a woman discovers a lump in the breast she should so at once to the best possible physician, one in whom she has implicit confidence, and should follow his decision.
 AS Dr. Joseph c. Bloodgood has indicated. the woman should not wait for a secondary symptom of pain before seeking medical advice, and if pain is the first sensation in the breast, she should not neccs- sarily wait for the appearance of lump. Another symptom is an un- usual discharge from the breast, which is the result of inflamma- tion.
 No Preventive Medicine
 There IS no preventive medicine for cancer that can be used either

Quicksands of Love
 Adele GarrisOns New Phase of -RepeIotions Of c Vie

She jerked her head from my clasp while her eyes blazed at me. Then she sprang to her feet and stepped back, breathing hard. as If she had been running. her fists clenched at her sides. She was so lovely in her tempestuous wrath that l drew a quick involuntary breath of admiration. The next instant l was almost too astonished for breath. asc she flared out:
 Naive? Why shouldn't I be naive? What experience have ever had that would teach me what Jack Leslie was planning when he's the first man not a relative ever talked to in all my life?"
 "I Was Incredulous."
 For an instant I was frankly in- credulous. The girl could not be tell ing the truth. l said to myself, re- membering her appearance when She first came to us. With her cigarette case, her lipstick. her rouge, her up- to-the-minute slang, her general air Ol SOplllSllCdLlON, IL seemed lnpOS- sible that the more or less innocuous flirtations of flapper had not been hers also.
 But the next moment I knew. There was no guile in her eyes, noth- ing save a swiftly comprehending hurt look, and l opened my lips to voice my belief in her. But she was quicker of speech than I.
 T can't help it if you don't believe me- she said, turning away, and there was in her voice a poignant reproach and something more dan- gerous, sullen rebellion. I caught at her arm and pulled her down forcibly beside me.
 ''Of course I believe you, Mary" I said. "But--" as a sudden re- membrance gripped me. you can't blame me for a moments incredulity when l tell you that I have heard about Paul."

 Peace was restored as they sat at the kitchen table, and ate fried chicken. creamed potatoes and suc- cotash that Mary had left in the l hot closet.
 But I surely was knocked silly when you same up those stairs" Honey Lou said T was as en- barrassed as two eyes meeting through a key-hole!"
 On the second of January the bills began to come in--bi4ls for furniture, for flowers, for clothes, for beauty treatments, for lunches, and teas at sabines restaurant.
 Honey Lou simply could not be- lieve that she had said Charge 1t to Mrs. J. w. Wallack, junior" 50 many times, as she sat looking at all those bills!
 She tucked them into a drawer of her little French desk, and shivered with cold little fear that went to her heart like chill.
 It was Thursday might and Mary's night "out." Angela was coming over to help her get dinner for Jack.
 "Ill show him the bills while Angels here" Honey Lou finally made up her mind as she went into the kitchen and went to work.
 I'm just frightened to pieces" she told Angela when they were sitting across from each other at the kitchen table, peeling vege7 tables for salad. T have about a million bills, and know Jacks going to just blow me sky-high when I show them to him!"
 Don't be silly" Angela said with as much sharpness as ever crept into he satiny tones. 'He has plenty of money-the Mills are running, aron't they? And, any way, I dont see where you spend so much. You have no car to keep up, no big house to heat and llBuL- Anu JdCh uoSu to il'ili6 well and spending money. His mother never skimps, I notice"
 Honey Lou shrugged her shoul- ders. They've let their chauffeur go," she answered with troubled frown. "The Head is driving Grumpy down to the mills every morning."
 Well" that's probably because he was impertisent, or got drunk, or something" Angela said calmly They'll soons have another. you'll sec"
 The sound of her voice drowned out the little voice of fear in Honey Lou's heart. Of course, she wasn', spending too much money. It just seemed like lot to her because she had known nothing but Arbol

 Never had Danny Meadow Mouse had a worse shock than when he was picked up by the tail by young Ringneck the Pheasant, who had mistaken that tail for a worm. Not only had he given Danny a great fright and q sore tail, but it had completely upset his plans to break the news of his homecoming to Nanny Meadow Mouse So Danny went off by himself to nurse his tail and .sulk and try to get his nerves calmed down and his tenn per restored.
 After a While, when Danny felt better. he softly stole back to where he could sec the house of Nanny Meadow Mouse up in the bush. Presently he saw Nanny come to the door and put her head out. There she. sat, looking this way and that way. She looks' thought

 Anyway. if I'm spending too much. Jack will be sure to tell me so." she said comfortably to her self as sEe ran down the hall te answer the ringing telephone.
 It was Jack. Honey. won't be home for dinner" his voice came over the wire. Lane, one of oui salesmen. has been hurt in an ac' i cident down at Creseentville and I'm going right down there. Don't worry If I'm not home until mid night"

 But she was to see him that very night!

Danny, ''as If she were watching for some one. I believe she is. Yes. sir, I believe she is"
 Now this wasn't so at all. Nanny had come to the door and was looking about to make sure that the way was clear for her to leave her house in safety. She wasn't ex- pect!ng any one, or looking for any one. But Danny didn't believe this. He was jealous. He hadn't forgot ten that Skinner the Swallow had told him that there were two strange Meadow Mice living on the Green Meadows. So Danny glared angrily all about. At first he didn't see any one. Then he heard a leaf rustic a short distance away, and into plain view stepped a hand some young Meadow Mouse. As Meadow Mice go. he really was handsome; and he was young. Danny looked up at Nanny. Nanny was looking down at the young Meadow Mouse. Danny didn't like the way she looked at him. She looked at him as if he were good to look at Danny didn't think he was good to look at at all Of course, the handsome young Mead ow Mouse saw Nanny looking down. In fact, he had expected to see her looking down. Danny could tell this by the way he appeared. Good afternoon, Mrs. Meadow Mouse" said the stranger.
 Good afternoon" replied Nanny. If you are feeling as fine as you look you are feeling very fine in deed"
 T am feeling very fna," replied the stranger. T hope you are feel ing just as fine. Do you know, Mrs. Meadow Mouse, you are very hand some.'
 Danny wanted to rush out and bite tho stranger. Not that he didn't think that Nanny was hand some. He did. He always said that Nanny was the handsomest Meadow Mouse he ever had laid eyes on. But 1t was one thing for him to say it, and quite another for the stranger to say it. No, Danny didn't like the looks of that stranger one bit. T wish he were smaller" he kept saying over and over to him self. T wish he were smaller. I-Td bile his head off"
 Now. of course, that wasn't a nice thing at all for Danny to say or even think. But thinking it didn't hurt the stranger any, for the stranger didn't even know it. "Yes, Mrs. Meadow Mouse" said the stranger. you are the hand somcst Meadow Mouse I ever have seen. Do you mind if I pay you a can:"
 Nanny looked fattercd, but she didn't have a chance to say any thing. No, sir, shc diGn't have a chance 10 say anything There was a sudden rush of small feet, a squeal of rage, a thump which knocked the handrcme Meadow Mouse flat on his back. where he rolled over twice before he could get to his feet. Then Nanny had just a glimpse of her caller. appar- cntly running for his life with a very angry looking gray Mouse at his heels. And there was some- thing an0ut tho latter that WA c strangely familiar.

 She turned to Stephen Mayhew. Hello. stevuns. suppose you want to go right away, don't you?"
 She slipped her arm into his and the pair of them went out After ward. Honey Lou could not even remember whether she said good night to them or not. Her brain seemed to be whirling like . merry go-round in her head.
 "Well, if you aren't the pink limit" She turned blazing eyes to Jack when the sound of their foot steps had died away on the car peted stair. What did you think I was doing. for pity's sake?"
