Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS EISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of
 Hygcia, the Health Magazine.

A frequent subject for debate in ! the locker room or at the l 9th hole is the type of mind that is best for golf. Some insist that the dull, un- imaginative mind prevents cratic shots, claiming also that undue sen- sitiveness and intelligence tend to mitigate efficiency.
 Dr. Theodore B. Hyslop, British ncurologlst and leading golfer, as- serts that the latter type is more l productive of brilliancy than the i former, particularly when the indi- vidual player schools himself to i overcome incidental and tempcra- mental variations.
 | Human being react differently to various situations. Most of us fol- low ordinarily the line of least re- sistance. The natural way to act is usually the most economical way from the physical and mental point of view. Therefore, Dr. Hyslop be- lieves that the instructor will cul- tivate the pupils natural processes and not try to stultify his natural reactions.
 Many of our reactions seem to be inherited as a part of our mental processes. There seems to be such a thing as a born golfer. What is good for the average golfer who plays from 90 to 100 may be bad for the super-golfer who is usually in the low seventies, and at worst near to so.
 As Dr. Hyslop points out, the se- lection of clubs may be an indica- tion of the nature of the golfers cranium. Some golfers acquire an intimate and friendly knowledge of a few clubs; others, through obscs- sions of fear and timidity, make many aCquaintanccs but few friends. It is better to know three clubs well than q dozen slightly.
 The Visiting Dub
 The player who is q super golfer on his own links and a dub when visiting elsewhere is not an un- familiar figure, The visit is a test of his ability to react to a strange environment, his ability to judge distance, and his emotional nature generally. True efficiency is able to respond satisfactorily under any conditions.
 The psychological hazard or mcn- tai handicap unquestionably exists in golf. It is only necessary 10 point out to some golfers the presence of a narrow ditch 50 feet from the tee to have them drop the ball squarely in the ditch as though they had aimed for it.
 This is the power of suggestion that forms the basis of all of the faith healing cults that have existed

Dicl<y Returns From His "Owi
 Hunt"

Eleanor LincolH's poise was not proof against Dichys arnource- ment that he haI frightened away the owl whose hooting had caused her to swoon with terror. l saw her eyes widen and sine leaned forward in her chair, grasping the arms Of it with a pressure which left her slender fingers bloodless.
 "Did-you see him?" she asked. and there was a distinct quaver i'll her voice.
 Dicky shot a quick, keen glance at her before answering.
 Not exactly" he said. but l heard him plenty and then some. He sure was one mad bird, but l think he finally realized that We weren't giving any free additions here and he'd beeter stage his vo- calization on some other lawn"
 She searched his face with the great lustrous eyes which always re- mind me of the black velvety pan sies in my garden and then settled back in her chair, her hands drop ping into her lap. That Dicky's an- swer had treasured her in some measure I saw, and wondered if she were credulous enough to believe that Dicky really had mistaken q mans running footsteps for an owls sweeping through branches.
 For by this time I was thorough ly convinced of the correctness Of my theory that the noise which had frightened Miss Lincoln had not been the boot Of an owl. but a men, acing signal from the lips of one of the men who had frightened her before. That 1t was a wild. fantas- tic conjecture, I realized, but l was sure that both Dicky and Lillian shared my belief and the knowledge helped to bolster my conviction.
 But more startling proof was on its way to me. joined dutifully in the general laugh which followed Dicky's whimsical speech, but my

about the Mir. Blacksnake who was coming out from under the old log. His eyes were as bright and staring as ever Peter had seen them. He ran his tongue out at Peter now. Peter grinned. He wasn't afraid of Mir. Blacksnake, for he knew he was too big for MT Blacksnake to eat, Still he didn't want to have any trouble with Mir. Blacksnahe.
 Suddenly it came 10 Peter what had happened. Mr. Blacksnase was getting rid Of his old coat, Under meath it he had a new coat and so he had no use for two coats. It was that old coat that had made him look so dull. And he really had been blind for q few minutes. You see, when MT Blacfsnake gets rid of his old coat he gets rid of film over his eyes also. and after this is loosened and until he actually gets rid of it he cannot see very well.
 Now Mir Blacksnake was literally running out of his skin. But, Of course his old coat was really his old skin. It was turned inside out He had started it that way by fore ing his head under that old log. Once started 1t peeled off easily. In just a moment Mr. Blacksnake was entirely free, and never had he look ed handsomer and never had he ap- peared livelier and, truth to tell, never had he been hungricr

 coin and rested upon the door . through which ricby had just walk ! 'd. Just inside 1t l saw q shadowy. . lowering fjgure-katle's. She put hor fingers against her lips, beck

 When I reached the dining room l Katie was already at the kitchen

 until the morning after, when she is

 She locked the outside door and

 Old Mother Nature.

It was the day after Peter had been spying on Mrs. Peter in the dear Old Briar- patch that he almost had an adventure up there in the Old Pasture. Thinking so much of himself and his own troubles, which after all were imaginary Peter Eab- bit had become very careless. So it was that he hoped over an old log without first looking on the other side. You know, it is a very care less thing to jump without knowing just where you are going to land and all about where you are going to land.
 No sooner had Peters feet struck the earth than there was a great commotion among the dead leaves close beside him, and Peter jumped again with surprising quickness. My goodness," exclaimed Peter, as he looked back. Then he exclaimed again when he discovered that he had just missed landing on Mir. Blacksnake.
 And Mir Blacksnake was in B dreadful temper. Yes, sir, he cer- tainly was in a dreadful temper. He was striking this way and that way, as if he were trying to strike some one. At the least little sound Mir. Blacksnake would strike in every di- rection. Peter kept still and pres sntly MT. Blacksnake quieted down.
 He looked rather queer 10 me" thought Peter. He looks dull. He hasn't got that black, shiny coat that he usually has. No sir, MT. Blacknake doesn't look himself. l wonder if he is sick"
 Just then MT. Blacksnake moved in such a way that Peter had q good look at his head. There was some thing queer about Mr. BlacEnake' g eyes They were dull-looking. In fact, Mir. Blacksnake looked as fl he might be partly or wholly bhnd. Certainly he looked queer.
 Presently Mr. Blacksnake moved close up to the old log over which Peter jumped. Peter could see that there was a very narrow space un- der one end of that old log. MT. Blacksnaks began trying to push his head through under the old log at this place. At first he couldn't seem to succeed. But he worked and he worked, and Peter sat there and watched. Presently. after working quite a while. MT Blacllsnake forced his head through. From where Peter was he could see Mr. Black snake when he came out the other side. It wasn't tho same Mir. Black snake at all At least it wasn't in appearance. There was nothing dull

mentioned to Mrs Ptyfe that I vas stopping over in New York. The truth is, Mr. Markham, I had req son for not wishing my wife to know l was in the city. Consequent ly. if I had driven back at once, she would, l regret to say, have suspect ed me of breaking my journey. l therefore pursued the course which 1 seemed simplest"
 Markham was becoming annoyed at the mans fluent hypocrisy. After Q brief silence he asked abruptly: Did the presence of your car at Bcnson's house that night have any thing 10 do with your apparent de- sire to implicate Captain Lcacock 1 in the affair.""
 Tfyfe lifted his eyebrows in pain ed astonishment, and made q gesture of polite protestaton.
 My dear sir" His voice he tokcncd profound resentment of the others unjust imputatiou. If yes tcrday you detected in my words an 1 undercurrent of suspicion against ! Captain Leacock, l can account for i it only by the fact that I actually saw the captain in front of Alvin's house when l drove up that night"
 Markham shot a curious look at 1 Vance: then said to Pfyfe:
 You are sure you saw Leacocll ?" ! "I saw him quite distinctly. And I would have mentioned the fact yesterday had il not involved the tacit confession of my own presence there"
 What if it had?" demanded Markham. Tt was vital information and I could have used it this morn ing. You are placing your comfort ahead of the legal demands of jus tice; and your attitude puts very questionable aspect on your own al- legged conduct that night" You are pleased to be severe. sir, said Pfyfo with sclf-pity But having placed myself in false posi- ton, l must accept your criticism"
 Do you realize" Markham went on, that many 2 district attorney, if he knew what ! now know about your movements, and had been treated the. way you've treated me, would arrest you on suspicion ?"
 Then I can only say" was the suave response, that ] am most fortunate in my inquisitor'
 Markham rose.
 That will be all for today. MT. Pfyfc. But you are 10 remain in New York until l give you permis- sion 10 return home. Otherwise, I will have you held as a material witness"
 Pfyfc made a shocked gesture in deprecation of such acerbities, and bade us a ceremonious good after noon.
 When we were alone, Markham looked seriously at Vance.
 Your prophecy was fulfilled. though l didn't dare hope for such luck. Pfyfe's evidence put the final link in the chain against the Cap tain"
 Vance spoke lanGuidly.
 "Ill admit your theory of the crime is most satisfyin. But alas. the psychological objection remains Everything fits. with the one eXcep- ton of the Captain: and he doesn't fit at all. -. Silly idea, l know But he has no more business being cast as the murderer Of Benson than the bisonic Tetrazzini had be- ing cast as the phthisical Mimi""

THIS HIS HAPPENED

Vance demonstrates by measure ments at the scene of the shooting that the murderer must have been approximately six feet tall and thus eliminates Miss St Clair as sus- poet. Pfyfe tells Markham that Lea cock had threatened to kill Alvin Benson. Markham begins to believe Leacock guilty. Then word is brought that q large gray automo- bile that had been seen outside Ben sons house the night of the mur- der is listed in Pfyfc's name.
