Your Health How To Keep It.
 Causes of Illness

 gcia. the Health Magaztne

QclH, NlHHuZ1Nc
 Those who have watched the foot ball games during the recent season have seen athletes led from the field or taken from the conflict because of difficulties with the knee joint.
 Among all games football is the one most likely to produce trouble with cartridges of tho knee and especially of the internal of the two cartridges that lie between the large bone of the thigh and the larger of the two bones that make up the leg.
 The internal cartilage has the shape of q crescent, it's extremes being attached 10 points on the bone and united In front by a fibrous band.
 For this reason. the internal cartilage is frequently torn by any severe jolt or any twisting injury of the leg. The tear usually takes place at the front end of the carti- lage when the rotating of the bone of the leg throws burden on 1t that it is incapable of sustaining.
 When the athlete falls with the lower limb folded under his body. or if the foot is held motionless while the body rotates violently. conditions that are likely to be as- sociated with any hard tackling. this cartilage sustains an injury.
 Immediately there is pain and swelling, with particular sensitive ness on pressure. When the leg is slightly flexed, the joint becomes blocked and 1t is impossible to straighten the leg. It may be pulled and rotated into position, but great pain occurs when the athlete at- tempts to stand on his feet.
 If the piece of cartilage is torn away completely, 1t may float loose- ly in the joint and when 1t comes between two surfaces succeeds in locking the joint. If 1t Is merely torn partly away, it loses It's shape and thickens, and may not infre- quently be subjected to an injury with swelling and locking of the knee joint.
 If the person whose cartilage has been injured is treated with the application of heat rest and sini- lar measures, he is likely to get rid of the pain and the condition

Mary Harrison Faces Her Ordeal
 With the Producer

|
 With the Producer I waited only until l was sure Mary was safely in the library be- fore going down to Lillian. But l carefully went down the back stairs and out doors. coming to the veran- da from the lawn that neither Mr. Nerltzen nor Mary might see me passing the library door
 Well, has the gullotine dropped yet?' Lillian queried softly as 1 sat down beside her. but her eyes be- lied the flippancy Of her words and I knew that she was nearly as anX- ious over Marys fate as I was.
 "I don't know" I answered. T just sent Mary into the library"
 Well, probably her head won't reach the basket for few minutes yet" she commented T can see by your face that you don't think she has much chance"
 'I don't know what to think" I said heavily. and Lillian shot a shrewi glance at me.
 "You look all done up, old dear" she said sympathctically. Would it help any to tell me about il 3"
 There isn't much to tell about Mary" I returned, very sure that ] could not relate to Lillian the tale of Mir. Neritzen's theatrical emotional ism, when l had made my foolish little appeal for Mary. He said that he had an appointment in an hour, and I gathered the impression that it was some distance from here. I do not think he will prolong the in- tcrview."
 "I know Phil can use a lot of words to express q lone thought when he wants to. but he sure made q record this time" she commented dryly.
 But he didn't say anything about Mary until the very end of the in- terview." I explained. "The rest of the time he was talking about Eleanor Lincoln"
 Aha. the plot thickens.' Lillian laughed. Also it is moro like what I expected. What about it? Are you going to let me in on it, or is it something Mammals little girl must wait until she is older 10 know?"
 Her falsetto was irresistible. and I laughed until l was afraid the two in the library might hear me. When I recovered my breath, told her everything that Mir. NeritZen had said concerning Eleanor Lincoln.
 She listened with marked atten- tion until l had finished, then gave a short sardonic laugh.
 "Th" poor cracked filbert." she draWlcd. "He must be getting old. But it's a lucky thing for--for Dicliy that the Lincoln persists in her refusal 10 pose with the dog. Fedor. He would have wasted lot of time getting the drawings done. The Dicky bird ought to stick to professional models. Curiously, h. never chirps to them. They might ha part of the furniture for all he EnoWS.'
 l made a sorry attempt at q smile.
 You mean. l suppose that it's lucky thing for me" I said. But, really, it doesn't matter. If he weren't here, he'd be somewhere else"
 It was q banal wording of my cy7l- ical conclusion that every so often my husbands search for exactly the right material for his illustrations led him into an actistically romantic CT rom4ntically artistic filtration with some beautiful girl. Lillian leaned over and put her hand over mine
 Don't get too bitter. girl.' she said. "Thorc'S q long life before you, and you don't want 10 poison it. But by the pricking of my thumbs I believe the interview is over. Here they come now..'
