l even Lillian, always an adept fenc- CT with words, sheathed her rapier and permitted the famous theatrical producer almost a monologue.
 I ventured no word at all, but I was thrillingly conscious of two things. One was the fact that Philip Neritzen had noted, as had Dicky earlier in the evening, that my gown suited me, and that I was looking better than I had in years. The other was the equally undeniable circumstance that Dicky understood Veritzen's glances and was secretly resentful of them.
 The Masked Dancer III
 Have you seen this masked dancer?" the great man asked abruptly and l think we all realized at the same instant why he had come to the supper club. That he was always on the lookout for any thing unusual in his line, We all knew, and I. at least, thrilled with the thought that a little later
 
 great producers approval laid upon the shoulders of the mysterious girl whose dancing and loveliness had captivated the frequenters of the night club.
 No, We haven't Dicky answered for us. T understand she is some- thing most unusual
 T have been told so,' MT. Verit- zen said, then added resignedly "But I have seen so many swans turn geese in a night"
 T wonder why the delay" Dicky commented, looking at his watch. Tt is past the time when she usual ly appears"
 Lillian and I had been conscious for some time of some suppressed excitement among the members of the orchestra, and had signaled the knowledge to each other by surrep- titious kicks. Noel Veritzens face especially was winter than his usual pallor, and the lines of his face to my imagination showed strain. And then, suddenly, the hostess advanc- ed to the center of the floor.
 My dear friends she said. T have great disappointment for you but it is even more grievous for me. have just learned that our masked dancer has been taken ill and can- not be with us tonight"

 Dinner - Lamb stew, baked squash, cabbage and celery salad, rice souffle, whole wheat bread, milk, coffee.
 During this season of the year much thought must be given to adults as well as children's diets. Elderly persons should particularly watch their choice of foods. The tendency through the winter months is to increase the amount of fats and sweets and the outdoor worker and active youngsters need the richer diet. But fruits and fresh vegetables must be served regularly and daily to counteract the effect of the rich foods in the system of the active worker. Others, who must be shut in, need the fruits and vegetables as the main part of their diet.
 Grape Fruit With Boiled Custard
 Four eggs (whites), IA teaspoon cream of tartar. F cup grape jelly, ? tablespoons hot water.
 Beat whites of eggs until foamy. Add cream of tartar and continue beating until stiff and dry. Melt jelly with hot water and gradually beat into eggs. Turn into a well-buttered mold and steam 25 minutes. The mold must be large enough to permit the egg mixture to puff as souffle does. Let stand until cold. Unmold and surround with boiled custard.
 Boiled Custard
 Four eggs (yolKsl, tablespoons granulated sugar. 1-4 teaspoon salt. 9 cups milk. F teaspoon vanilla.
 Beat yolks of eggs with salt and sugar. Scald milk in double boiler and beat a few tahlespoonfuls into egg mixture. Add this to hot milk and cook over hot water until GUS tard coats the spoon. When cold. flavor with vanilla and serve. If the custard is carefully made, 1t will not need straining.

Reddy Fox visited Paddy's house every time he happened to be
 over that way

night. When Whitey the Snowy Owl came down from the Far North he frequently sat on that roof It was a good place to sit. Jumper the Hare sometimes came that way; and just because other people were visiting that house Jumper would do it. He was taking a chance every time he cid 1t though. Two or three times during the winter Farmer Browns Boy came that way, and he always stopped at Paddy's house. So there were many visitors. but to none were Paddy and Mrs. Paddy ever at home.

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medicai Association and of Hygeia,
 the Health Mauoyipe

 Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hygeia,
 the Health Magazine
 In the midst of the oyster season 1t is interesting to know the exact food valne of shellish.
 Such information is supplied by Dr. D. B. Jones of the United States bureau of chemistry, who supplies the estimate that one pound of oysters, equivalent to a pint per day. will furnish approxi- mately 35 per cent of calcium, 5S per cent of the phosphorus, and 1S6 per cent Of the iron required in the food of an average person per day.
 Furthermore. oysters are rich, as are all seafoods, in iodine, which is markedly deficient in the diet of persons living in the Great Lakes region.
 There is no doubt that the oyster is rich source of vitamins A and E, as determined through investiga tions made by observers in various parts of the world.
 Investigations made by Dr. Jones indicate that oysters, clans, and shrimp contain enough proteins to be valuable as foods, the protcins being in easily assimilable form. The protein of the shrimp and of the clam seems to be superior to that of the oyster for nutritive purposes.
 The percentage of fat in differ ent species Of fish varies. There is relatively little of this in the ordi- nary oyster, but more occurs in the salmon. the shad. herring. butter fish and mackcrel.
