asplc, potato salad, corn mullins,
blackberries and cream, plain cook
les milk. tea.
Dinner-Vegetabl plate, water

In this dinner menu the protein
rich dish is found in the dessert.
Often a poached egg is served on a
bed Of spinach or any creamed vege-
table on toast but for this plate"
the addition of the egg is unneces-
sary When planning a vegetable
dinner always choose vegetables of
contrasting color and arrange them
attractively.
Cold Boiled Tongue in Aspic
TWO tablespoons graduated CELIA
tine, IL cup cold water 2 cups boil
ing water, 2 bouillon cubes, 2 table,
spoons minced carrot, 1 tablespoon
minced onion, 2 tablespoons minced
celery, 1 tablespoon minced parsley,
IL teaspoon salt, few grains pepper,
1 cup diced cold boiled tongue, /
head celery.
Soften gelatine In cold water for
five minutes and dissolve bouilion
cubes in boiling water. Add carrot,
onion, parsley, celery and salt to dis
solved bouillon cubes, cover closely
and simmer 20 minutes. Remove
: from fire and stir in softened gela-
tine. Strain through wire and then
through cheesecloth. Place a spoon
full of the aspic in the bottom of
each individual mold. 1t will stiffen
very quickly. On this put slice of
crisp celery. Cover with a thin lay
er of aspic and a layer of diced
tongue. Continue layer for layer of
aspic, celery and meat until all is
used. Put on ice for several hours
to chill and become firm. Unmold
on bed Of lettuce hearts and celery
curls.
To unmold wrap each cup in a
towel wrung out of hot waters. In
vert and the aspic will slip out easily.
This is an excellent way to use up
the end of tongue that is too small
for slicing.

Beginning a New Serial

But we were not to get away SO
easily. Noel bent to the key, turned
| it and put his foot upon the starter.
Not a sound came from it. and he
turned around with as apologize
an air as if he were to blame for
the battery's failure to respond.

starter is damned. III get down

"Oh, hurry" Miss Lincoln breath
ed without lifting her head from
my shoulder. and while Noel climb
ed down under the car I seized the
first opportunity l had had for other
than cursory glance at the people
gathered at the station.
My eyes first sought the red
bearded man. l expected to find
him watching our car intently, be-
cause of his previous inexplicable
interest stead his face was turned
in another direction and / saw that
the car upon which his eyes were
fixed was a new one belonging to
one of the local automobile dealers
who evidently was either negotiat-
ing or just completing a sale to the
striking young man whose dog SO
nearly had knocked me down in
the Long Island station two days
before.
The dog was still with him, sitting
now beside Jim in the seat. But that
the animal was excited and anxious
to get out of the car was plain to
anyone. His head was lifted. his
nostrils aquiver, his eyes cleaning,
while from his throat issued faint
whimperings which I knew but for
his training would have been clam
orous barks.
His masters hand was firm upon
his collar, but his masters eyes were
fixed upon our car. I did not have
time for anything save a flashing
conjecture 80 to a possible connec-
ton between his interest and Flea
nor Lincoin's desire for concealment
before the dog with a sudden move
ment broke away from his master,
cleared with two or three powerful
bounds the distance between his
masters car and ours, and leaping
into the tonneau of our open car,
threw himself upon us.

Your Health
How to Keep It,
Causes of Illness
BY DIR. NORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor journal of the American Med.
ical Association and OF Hygeia,
the Health Magazine

the Health Magazine
One of the saddest spectacles in
the Affections Of mankind Is early
blindness caused by improper care
of the eyes in newborn infants.
The National Committee for the
Prevention OF Blindness has been
giving attention to this subject for
many years. and reports that the
amount of blindness for 1926 due to
the infection of the eyes in child
birth was 1928 per cent, a gradual
reduction from % per cent in 1908
to 1912.
The venereal diseases continue to
be responsible, however. for most Of
the blindness from which human
beings suffer, since other venereal
conditions are responsible for loss
of sight besides that which causes
the common type of blindness of in
fancy.
One OF the most important steps
in preventing defective vision has
been the establishment OF pre-
school eye clinics, particularly in
New York. Children are brought to
these kindergartens or clinics before
they are ready to begin their educa-
ton. In this manner thousands of
cases of bad eyesight are detected.
and the children provided with suit
able eyeglasses, or their infectious
diseases of the eye cured before they
undertake the studies which place a
special burden upon the sight.
1t has been estimated that at least
5000 sightseeing clinics will be nee
essary to accommodate all of the
children of the country, whereas
thus far there are approximately
only 2S4 available.
Recently Noguchi, the celebrated
Japanese Investigator of the Rookie
Teller Institute, announced the dis
covery of bacterial organism which
he believes is responsible for the
disease Of the eyes known as ira
choma. While this discovery has
not as yet been confirmed by other
investigators, the evidence presented
was SO convincing that competent
specialists in diseases of the eye are
willing to accept it at its face value.
If the organism can be confirmed as
the actual cause of this disease,
thousands of cases Of blindness will
be prevented through the application
of this knowledge of the control Of
trachoma.
Industries are beginning to give
attention to eye hazards associated
with various occupations. The wear
ing of suitable glasses by those
working on machines from which
fragments sometimes fly into the
eyes has prevented thousands Of
cases of blindness. In this, as In
many other forms of disease preven-
ton. education of the public is the
essential step. More and more peo-
pie are beginning to realize that
moments thought concerning the
prevention of disease may be the
means of saving hours of illness and
vast sums of money spent for relief
or cure.

Red Beard and a Dog Made
Dramatic Entry

For an instant / was SO bewild-
sagging against me, and her plea
to have Noel Veritzen take her
place at the wheel of her car. that
there was no thought in my mind
save the urge to care for the illness
which she said had seized her.
But even as Noel and Mary came
closer to us with little ordinations
of astonished sympathy. l realized
that her claim of illness was only a
pretense. She was frightened at
something or someone she just had
seen. l decided that because of the
sudden Mortified widening OF her
eyes l had noticed. Following the
direction of her eyes I saw stand
ing among the station loungers the
red-bearded man, our Objectionable
rev neighbor of the shack in the
woods. whose appearance at The
Larches had upset her.
But as we hurried her to the car
my opinoin of her physical con-
dition being confirmed by her firm
rapid footsteps, with no sign of
weakness in them-I told myself
that the appearance of the red
bearded man at the station hardly
warranted so pointed an exhibition
of fear. She had seen him before,
there was no element of surprise in
the meeting and she could not hope
TO conceal her presence at the stat
ion from him. Yet every movement
of her body, every tone OF her
frightened voice spelled her desire
not to be seen.
AS we reached her car, and Noel
pulled open the rear door, she
caught at Mary's arm.
please sit on the other side of
me-" she said, and I caught myself
wondering whether the request had
its origin in her desire TO keep
Mary away from the seat beside
Noel But when upon entering the
car, she twisted her body to pos
ition that sheltered her between us
and gave little chance for anyone
seeing her from outside, l acquitted
her of any pretense. There patiently
were but two thoughts in her mind,
one to escape observation, the other
to get away from the station as
fast as possible.

The young Bluebird on the

He called to his sister, who was also

The next story: THE Excited
Young Blucbirds."
New Britain herald., 1927-08-04

For two or three days the Blue
bird family remained right around
Farmer Browns dooryard. In the
first place. the young birds were not
strong enough to fly far. Then, too,
Winsome and Mrs. Winsome knew
just what good friends Farmer
Browns Boy Farmer Brown and
Mother Brown were. They felt that
the young Bluebirds were safer
there than they would be farther
away. And of course Winsome and
Mrs. Winsome We're unusually wor
ried because of the fact that three
of their children We're dressed all in
white. They just couldn't get used
to it. They didn't mean to be par
tial, but the fact is the other two
babies got more of the food than the
white ones did. This was because it
seemed more natural to fly to the
babies that were dressed as young
Bluebirds should be dressed.
Now there was one thing that
Farmer Browns Boy is always very
particular about. It is that there
shall at all times be water where the
birds can drink, it and battle in it.
He never forgets to put out water
every morning. And the birds appre-
ciate 1t. Indeed they do! It seems
sometimes as if all the birds of the
Old Orchard We're sitting around
