she said, you can bank your last

erring where piece of dramatic
work is concerned. And he's right
about those fragments Harry wrote.
They were really the last word in

She hesitated, and with a little
laugh l finished her sentence.
"Mr. Veritzen said that he was
too bone lazy to do that"
The first smile l had seen on her
face since we had settled down for
our talk twitched the corners of her
mouth.

THAT is what he said"

II he has, there is no estimating
the success he can have. Phil will
be right behind him, he always was
tremendously fond of Harry. al

make him push the play If it were
not unusual don't think Phil
Veritzen would sacrifice an inch of
his artistic conscience for any
friend, no matter how dear-but he
also has the idea of Harry's dra-

she rejoined, and then put a sudden
anxious question.
Look here, Madge. Phil praised
the fragments Harry used to do,

young unknown author, was really
Harry's. But did he say specifically
that this play was good?"

Lillian rarely is on guard with

I was her safety valve" and tina,
It was heavenly not to have to

ing to me. So ! was not surprised
to see q look OF genuine astonish-
ment flash into her face at my

startled tones.
I: Harry! Phil has news OF Harry
When? Where? Has he seen him ?
1t iS1't bad news. I can see that by

She leaned back in her chair, her

there was something else in her
eyes. inscrutable, watchful. Was it
fear or relief?
mo. it isn't bad news" I said
slowly. but extremely odd. Mr..

that he is alive. well. and in this

Sounds like Chinese puzzle to
me-" she returned, and l was sur
prised at the distinct edge of i'm
patience in her voice. What is the
source OF all this information Phil
is splitting?
In az quick and brief fashion as
I could manage. I told her of the
manuscript drama which had been
sent Mr.. Veritzen, ostensibly the
work OF young unknown author,
but what the famous producer de-
clared could have been written by
no one else save Harry Underwood.
I also repeated the dictum OF the
great dramatic authority that under
meath Harry Underwood's flippancy
and Incidence was, concealed one of
the finest dramatic minds OF the
country. and that the Broadway
play tinker had written several
dramatic fragments which in sheer
beauty and originality OF treatment

In other instances. they are defi-

In order to find the cause of
commissions or fits in children. Dr.
s. H. Cookston, British hospital spe-
cialist in children's diseases, exam
ined 95 cases occurring in children
from six weeks to eleven and half
years old.
Most of the cases occurred during
the first year of life and the number
gradually diminished as the children
grew older. Fifty cases were boys
and forty-five were girls.
In 20 per cent of the instances
some one in the family was known
to be epileptic. In eighteen cases
there was q record that the child
birth had been difficult, and in
twenty-six cases there were present
not only commissions but also mental
deficiency. In four cases the fits
occurred only at night, whereas in
the remainder they occurred both
day and night.
The parents were questioned
closely to determine whether there
were any special conditions associat-
ed in the mind Of the parent with
occurrence of the fits. 1t was found
that constipation was apparently
considered Of majos importance by
the parents, but that unusual excite
ment was an important factor. Fur

Usually, when a child under one
year of age has fit that is mild in
