Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
By DR. HUGH S. CUMMING Surgeon General, United States
 PIlhlic HnaItl, Snr,-inn

Public Health Service Men and women thoughtlessly ex.
 pose themselves to infection by dis
 eases which are conveyed by the
 secretions of the nose and mouth
 What is worse, they permit their
 children to suffer a like risk, by
 drinking at soda fountains where
 they can even see that the glasses
 are not sterilized between users.
 In such a carelessly operated soda
 fountain there is a yeritable germ exchange" One wayside cart serv-
 ling children from infected glasses. is Ia danger to any community. Chil-
 dren ladling out lemonade in glasses lthat are contaminated with the dis eases of others are in like manner q menace to those who are served.
 One ailing employe may cripple a large office force if common drinking glass is in use.
 Takes Chance
 l A person suffering from any one of the diseases conveyed by the secretions of the nose and mouth carries in his saliva the infecting agent of that disease and unless the vessel from which he drinks is Isterilized or destroyed, the next user takes chance of becoming infect l ed. It is because of this menace to the public that the laws in general pro- Wide that there shall be sterilization of glasses after each use or that cups shall be provided which may be used once and then destroyed. Heat Is Best
 The process to be used in steriliz- ing Is detailed in some of the laws bearing on this subject. Ohio, for example, prescrihes the following method - namely, that after each individual service, the glass must first be washed by rinsing in cold water, then thoroughly washed in hot water with soap or suitable cleansing powder, or exposed to live steam, boiling water or hot air. the latter at temperature of not less than 250 degrees Fahrenheit, for a period of not less than five min utes, then rinsed in clear cold water and drained. Heat, of course, is about the best sterilizer known. Boil Ing water kills most germs in five minutes, and dead germs are harm less unless they exist in enormous 
 However. and this is the most diff ficult factor public health authori- ties have had to face, the people of the community for whom these have been devised, oft times fail to support the laws by | failing to comply with them individ- lally and by failing to insist on heir enforcement.

Dicky Falls for a Little Dish Ede
 Has Cooked.

Has Cooked.
 At Lillian's prophecy that before many hours would get [. reward fol my self control. I shook my head dismally.
 Whats the matter?" she de. manded.
 "Oh. it's all so futile'!" l said despondently; for despite my vaunt- ed indifference, the revelation oi Dicky's willingness to have me sub- ordinated to Ede in his office. had shaken me sorely, and there was not much balm in the plan Lillian had outlined.
 She walked over to me and box ed my ears playfully, but her voice held no note of mirth.
 You're the most obstinate thing I know" she said. "Of course you can't be expected to see any food for laughter or rejoicing in the situation just now. but just wait until the Dicky-bird begins to taste the full flavor of the cutie bone you're go- ing to hand him, and Wall street lamb that had just been sheared would get a laugh out of it. But there's no use hanging around here waiting for the Dicky-bird to wing his way to us. Get on your things and let's get that dress for Marion. It won't take very long, it will get your mind off this, and we'll prob- ably be back before Dicky gets here. He'll have to prepare his radio ad- dress and rehearse it before he gets ready to broadcast"
 Lillian is generally a true prophet, but she failed in this particular in- stance, for when we returned from the shops. having found most at tractive little evening frock for Mar ion in comparatively short order. we found Dicky pacing up and down the living room with a black frown upon his face. Even Lillians ap- pearance with me failed to modify bis very apparent wrath.

Reddy Fox was getting very much interested in Holsters. The very next night when he saw Barker the Seal haul out on big flat rock close to shore Reddy hurried down to bid him good evening. You know that queer fellow we were talking about last night 2" said Reddy.
 You mean Big Claw the Lobster l suppose" replied Barker.
 "I had forgotten his name, but that's the fellow" said Reddy.

MARRIAGE As LAST RESORT

"ahfASbL aS LAST RESORT
 Joan and l were so busy getting Leila ready for the hospital that it seemed no time at all before the ambulance came shrieking up to the door,
 After the first burst of grief and horror Lela seemed apathetic. She put herself absolutely in our hands.
 "I'll have to go with her to the hospital" said Joan 10 me.
 "of course, answered, and I'll come along little while after ward when have put the place in order"
 After they had left suddenly felt physically weak. l grew fright ened. I wondered If l were going to faint. I felt greatly depressed, but why I should he I could not explain to myself. With that startling truth. which is almost always stranger than fiction, providence had entered and ignoring our plans had taken all of us and treating us like pawns had settled everything.
 Everything now was going on spendidly. We really had nothing more to fear. Joan would in few
