Madge Sticks to Her Guns and
 Awaits Philip Veritzcn

Noel Veritzen's eyes were shining when I had finished my impassioned little declaration that n. must come to my welcome home dinner for the Uhderwoods, no matter what was his illustrious fathers reaction to tho news that the son from whom he had 50 long been estranged was to be guest at the same table. l saw that my decided preference of himself to his father, even though the latter were my employer, had pleased him and mitigated the sad ness which was always his portion when he thought of his fathers ob- duracy and the foolish pride which had kept the two apart for so long.
 "I ought not to be glad at your decision, but I cannot help but be grateful" he said haltingly, "even though I am afraid you are acting unwisely. My father, you know, is-"
 He hesitated, patently abashed, and I finished his sentence with a nonchalant little laugh which I hoped would banish his evident fear that I was risking anything by my championship of his cause.
 ''Is my employer" l said. Yes, he is, that is true, but I have yet to hear of employers selecting the dinner guests of their employees. That savors altogether too much of king and potentates.' Do not worry your head a bit about that part of it. I am not going to be rude, or force any issue. I simply am going to tell your father casually that you are going to be a guest at the din- ner. I do not think that even his sutocratic spirit will goad him to the discourtesy of asking me to re- scind your invitation. You know how I oyally courteous your father is, and what infinite reSourcefulness is his. If he absents himself from the he will have most plausible excuse for doing so, he will never refer to it afterward, and there will be no unpleasant consequences for me. You may be assured of that"
 He smiled. but there was no

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal Of the American Medical Association and of Hy-

 Since the earliest times, water has been much used in the treat ment Of disease including not only the hot and sold bath. but also special application such as alterna- ton, sudden sprays, continuous flow and similar notifications The first action of either hot or cold wa ter is probably stimulating, particu- larly if suddenly applied.
 Surf bathing, as pointed out by pr. Guy Hinsdale, is helpful ex- crcise, since it stimulates the body to react against the cold water and the force of the wave. The secondary effect of a surf bath is to make the bather quite sleepy and 10 rest him greatly.
 bath ranging in temperature from 94 to 95 degrees fahrenheit is called an indifferent bath, since it does not place any toll upon the heat regulating apparatus of the body,
 The carbonated water Of the Nauheim bath, named for the springs in Germany. is a tonic bath, used particularly for it's ef- fleets on the heart and blood ves- scls These baths are not given unless under competent supcrvi- sion, but they are gradually in- creasing in their use and are ap- piled at many special resorts in the United States and in the hos ptals at many institutions.
 In the treatment of many condi- lions in which it is desired to en- courage elimination, patients are submitted to the heat of incan- descent lamps or steamed in a cabinet in order to induce free pcrspiration. Following this, a spray of cool water is thrown over the body with the result that the action of the blood vessels is stimulated.

What to do? Farmer Rrown's
 Boy didn't know. There he was
 standing close beside one of Buster
 Bears little cubs, who somehow had
 managed to get a foot caught be- tween two roots, and coming toward
 him was Mother Bear-great big Mother Bear. He couldn't see her, but he could hear her and he could see the bushes moving.
 If" thought Farmer Browns Boy, "only l could scare her so bad ly that she wouldn't have a chance to think, perhaps she would leave me alone. If I had gun I would fire it.'
 But Farmer Browns Boy had no gun, that is. he had no gun with him. And then his eyes fell on the big tin pan he had brought with him filled with blueberries. At sight of that pail an idea came to him. Catching I'D the pail he start ed running straight toward the place where Mrs Bear was. As he ran he yelled at the top of his lungs and beat on that tin pail with his fist. Gracious, such racket as he made! And all the time he was running straight toward where Mrs. Bear was in the bushes.
 Now Mrs. Bear couldn't see Farmer Browns Boy because of the bushes She had already had one fright when the dreadful man smell had filled her nose She was feeling nervous and upset anyway, and when she heard this terrible noise coming toward her she just couldn't stand it. She turned tail and away she went, crashing through the bushes. headed for the Green Forest. one little cub, whim pering and squealing and crying. following her as best she could. Farmer Browns Boy yelled and heat the tin pail and Mrs. Bear crashed through the brush and ran pell-mell. as scared a bear as ever lived. For that matter, that noise Scared everybody else in that neigh horhood. It scared Reddy Fox and Mrs. Reddy; it scared Old Man Coyote. All three of them took to their heels.

 Then both Sammy and Blacky resumed their shrieking at the top of their lungs, so as to tell every body within hearing what exciting things were going on.

regret all his life the fact that he
hadn't met Nan before she had fallen
in love with some one else.
Helen had invited Martin to the
theater party more as an experiment
than anything else. She simply loved
experimenting with people. Charles
Sheridan, her husband, adored her.
He was a rather bovine type of per-
son, but he did make plenty of money
and he never interfered with Helen's
plans; therefore, she was a dut1ful
wife. She wondered, though, after her
talk with Nan, what it would be like
have had Martin Lee and she had
chosen to marry a penniless artist.
She was eager, too, to see what Tom
was like. She liked artists.
They all met in the lobby Of the
theater.
Out of their slender finances Tom
had insisted that Nan buy an evening
dress. It wasn't a very grand one.
But while Helen Sheridan had to have
exclusive models to make her look
slim and lovely, Nan could wear any
thing.
She had gone to a sale Of beaded
gowns and had chosen one IN white
trimmed with crusted pearls. 1t was
made over a very pale pink slip, and
the bodice was tight, while the skirt
was full. 1t made her look about IS,

throat. Above it that luminous young
face of hers was too lovely. The sweep

CHAPTER XII.
The Theater Party.

Helen Sheridan's theater party was
important in that it was the first
time Martin had seen Nan since that
night long ago.
In his thoughts the memory OF that
night had never faded. He could still
see Nan, her white little face against
the still whittier pillow; he could still
experience the emotions he had had as
he gaZed at her. And then had come
his impulse to tell her that he loved
her, and he had been interrupted by
Toms arrival.
He had had no doubt left in his
mind as to what the answer to his
proposal would have been, because he
had glanced at her face. A soft pink
color had flooded into it to relieve the
marble Wilderness. There was no
doubt of the fact that she cared for
this boy.
Martin had no idea who Tom was,
but he rather liked his face. 1t was
not the face of a man who would ever
be very successful. but 1t was sensi-
tive and fine. He had recognized
these things before he had taken his
departure, but he knew that he would
