perienced the creepy little feeling that someone was looking at me. l turned in obedience to the feeling, and saw young Noel Neritzen star ing at us from a table a few dis tant.
 His father had not yet seen him, for with an attention as flattering as it was embarrassing. he had not taken his eyes from my face since We had seated ourselves at the table. But he followed my glance, and though he did not start-his is the perfection Of poise-there flash cd into his eyes the same look of bitter, angry hearthreak. which I had just seen mirrorcd in the sensi- tive. face, so like his. own. of his only child.
 "Is it an omen?"
 Involuntarily I had bowed to young Neritzen, and he had return- ed my salutation as mechanically. The next instant he rose abruptly from the table. leaving a patently unfinished meal, and hurried out of the room. I looked after him com passionately, then dropped my eyes 10 my plate with the einbarras ssed consciousness that my companion was regarding mo steadily. But 1t was long minute before he spoke.
 "So you know my obstinate, un- grateful young cub" he said slow ly.
 I raised my eyes and returned his intent look
 If you mean your son. Mir. Noel Veritzen." I said, 'I have met him once-my husband knows him-and T regard his acquaintance as an honor"
 I knew his dislike of being crossed in any way, and I expected that he would be coldly angry at my cham pionship of the son whom he had banished. But instead, after a long look at me, he said quietly:
 He is fortunate in his cham pion." Then after q pause. in jerky, disjointed phrases spoken half to himself. half to me:
 Haven't run across him-years. Queer meeting him here with you. Today his birthday. Wonder if it is an omen? May I talk to you about him ?"

Red has established itself as the leading color of the fall street mode. Not the lacquer and scarlet shades inevitably associated with winter, but a more subtle tone suggestive of the mellow colors of old wine or the deep glow of a ruby.
 Kashmir-duvetinc in rich. deep red makes the street coat sketched today-a model that in line, color and trimming is expressive of the Lest in the new seasons mode.
 In line, this practical wrap fol- lows the straight, silhouette that has proven so generally becoming. It Is a wrap-around model. with raglan sleeves that end in deep cuffs of fur.
 The most striking feature is, however, the long collar of beaver. The majority of the new coats, both the tailored and the more formal afternoon models. feature long col lars of this description. Paquin and Callot show coats with collars made of two pointed fox skins-a more luxurious version of the sur plice collar idea.
 The dress accompanying this smart coat is a tailored model of brown faille, a two-piece affair fea- turing q comparatively plain bod ice oyer short ploated skirt.
 The fronts of this red duyetinc coat, as well as tho deep cuffs, are of luxurious beaver fur.

 "I certainly do have 10 ask you Why" I answered.
 T must confess that l don't un- derstand you when you ask such question" he explained, inpatient ly.
 Well, I will tell you. ask the question. John. because I don't un- derstand why you should think you are a killioy to anyone. On the con trary, you should bring happiness to everyone with whom you come in contact.
 Personally. I have never met anyone who had more to give 10 his friends and acquaintances. You have exceptionally magnetic quail ties if you will allow yourself 10 ex- ercise them, and I need not tell you, for you know it. that your brain is much above the average. It only needs contact with the brain of your fellow men.
 Aren't you ashamed of yourself because you have only used that brain to patch up uncomfortable sit nations and great unhappiness for yourself and those near and dear to you?
 The only thing I can see about you that is at all wrong, as l said before, you have an ingrowing soul.'

Veritzen Makes Madge His Lunch

 Cnerringly, Philip Neritzen had sounded the right note in his ap- peal to me. that of sorrowful need, Remembering all his royal kindness il would have taken much more determined nature than mine 10 ad- here to my refusal of the luncheon invitation which had become almost a matter of routine in our work to- gether and which I had suddenly resolved 10 eliminate from my schedule.
 "Of course, I will go with you if you need me" l said simply, in stinctively refrainins from the an rouncement that I meant it to be the last time. There would be an other and more favorable oppor- tunity for giving that information, l told myself, and knew that I was glad of the chance to postpone the announcement.
 Need you" MT. Eeritzen's deep organ voice made of the exclama- ton a compelling chant. T am be- ginning 10 suspect that I-"
 He stopped abruptly, and l found myself conjecturing whether real emotion, or carefully calculated art had made that effective pause. He gave me no chance for reflection however, but hurried me out of the office, and in another five minutes we were entering the doors of his favorite restaurant, a quiet conser- vative place. whose chief appeal to the great dramatic producer was its lack of any kind of orchestra.
 A Strange Meeting with Noel.
 T detest music with my meals" he had said to me upon the occa- non of our first luncheon together. "In fact I never listen to music of any kind If l can help it."
 With the remembrance of his life story coming vividly to my mind, had wondered whether the fact that his banished young son was a musi- elan of no mean attainments had anything to do with this aversion. The conjecture came back to me as I mentality repeated his comment that the day was one of sadness to him, an anniversiary. The day must have some relation to his son, de- cided, and then as If my specula- tions had had power to materialize the youth from empty air, l ex-

such child is not a matter for drugs or indeed anything except re- education of it's parents. The actual cure Of the condition lies in it's pre- Nention. From the first children should be taught the habituai na- ture of ordinary eating.
 The diet must be varied and at tractive. The parents must not re- jact food in the presence Of the child, since it learns largely by imi- tauon. Detailed discussions of the merits of individual foods at the table disturb the child. and cause it to reject the e foods on the slight est provocation.

 They were not just the shape of the Clans he was acquainted with. The shells seemed to be covered with a sort of thick skin and this was a glossy black, bluish or brown.

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American
 Medical Association and of Hygeia the Health Nacazine

 Hygeia the Health Magazine
 Specialists in diseases of chil- dren estimate that at least half of all the patients between and 6 years of age about whom they are consulted are brought because they will not cat.
 These children apparently are not very sick indeed not sick at all Some of them seem to be well nour- ished, others even fat. whereas many are definitely underweight. The children vary as to their tenn peraments.
 Some are so spoiled that they will not even submit 10 satisfactory ex- animation, others are sweet and do- cile, and still others are phlegmatic and dull and nothing interests them.
 These cases give the physician great concern, and call on all his mental powers for the detection of the underlying physical or mental causes.
 Examine Parents
 Dr. Harry Lowenburg indicates his belief that examination of the parents is sometimes the first con sideration: usually one or both may be nervous, hystcrical, self-willcd or have some other undesirable mental characteristic.
 Quite often the child is the only child In a family in which no more are wanted because the one at hand is regarded as too expensive to raise or too troublesome.
 Not infrequently, the mother will say that the baby was always "colicy" and that she had to wean 1t at a very tender age. Actually she had been easily convinced, or had convinced herself, that her breast milk was of poor quality and that there was not enough of 1t any way. Thus in infancy" says Dr. Lowcnburg was laid the founda- tion." The child's life had been fill cd from the first with don't" stops" "musts' and must nots," "can'ts," and unfulfilled threats.
 Monumental Lifr
 The child soon learned to regard it's Caretaker as monumental liar. Its belief in rewards and punish ments was destroyed, and it realized it's power. Such a child will not do anything normally that 1t Is asked to do without eHactins its price. without exertins its power, without creating a scene. without vomiting If 1t is forced 10 cat" .

NEW YORK. March 6.-Alreadl

sailors spin when their long tricks are

There is. for instance, the story OF
an officer who ran a. captured run

his gasoline ran out.
Recently q dead whale fioated up
on the beach at Block Island
The residents, annoyed, Immediately
raised q hue and cry for the Coast
Guard. The Cutter Red Wing, In
command Of Chief Boatswain Oscar
Vinge. towed the whale out to sea
inserted a mine in it and blew 1t up.
Again an oil tanker went ashore
near Newport. K. l., and It's cargo
polluted the fashionable swimming
beaches. In this case the Coast
Guard was forced to notify complain
ing residents that the remedy was
out of it's province.
The other day a Acton locomotive
fell overheard in New York Harbor
when two car floats crashed. Immedi
ately an s o S was sent to the
Coast Guard.
A crank in New Jersey wrote the

LONDON, March 6.--James Gleason
has been as kindly received by the
London critics as any American actor
who has visited England In q decade
His appearance in ''Is-Zat-So," OF
which he Is also co-author, was ger
orally heralded in the London papers
as the greatest laugh America mas
eiven London since Potash and Perl

The critics acclaim Gleason. In the
role of the prize fight promoter, and
Robert Armstrong, rs the lightweight
fighter, as one of the funniest team
London has seen for years. The abil E
ity of the British public to understand
the New York slang and follow the
rapid patter of the comedians is a.
scribed by several critics to the IL
