"You showed me up properly be-
fore Mike Sweeney" he went on, ir-
ritably, bringing her in there tn
way you did"
Jill felt sorry for him. just as
she was eternalIy feeling sorry Tor
others, and occasionally for herself.
Hers was a big, generous heart that
ached at the sight Of suffering. no
matter who the sufferer might be,
rs in the Ease Of Amity Smythe,
when Mike "cut" her.
So it was now. Tony had got him
self in bad" by drinking. She had
Inundated herself by interceding
and saving his job for him. In re-
turn, instead Of a manly apology, and
thanking her, he was accusing her
Of a meanness, the nature of which
he knew she was incapable. Ar
vet. when she saw that he was suf-
fering, even though il was his own
fault, she straightway forgave him
his surly injustice and felt sorry
for him. IL must have been of such
a woman that Crabbe wrote:
Man may the sterner virtues know,
Determined justice, truth severei
But female hearts with pity dear;
And woman holds affliction dear;
For guiltless woes ner sorrows flow,
And suffering vice compels her
tear;
lis hers to soothe the lis below,
And bid Lies fairer views ap-

The "sterner virtues Of determined
Justice" as mentioned in the proceed
ing lines, would have sanctioned The
telling of Jill's kid brother, Just what

that Jack vas responsible for Tony's
condition-that he didn't want her
TO go through with the dancing ccn-

wronged Jack. He had really t-Nf

With evidences of a record grape
crop this year producers and ship
pers are being urged by the Bureau
of Agricultural Economics, United
States Department of Agriculture,
to practice careful grading and
packing and wide distribution to
prevent an Improbable season"
The total grape crop is forecast
by the Department at 2,844,764 tons
as against 2,6O6,712 tons last year.
OF this quantity, California will
produce 2,53S,400 tons of grapes of
all classes compared with 2,4O6,0O0
tons in 1927. All states outside of
California expect a combined crop
of 100000 tons of grapes, or So per
cent more than their light produc-
ton of last season. Eight other
western states with probably 1857
tons, show very little increase over
1927, but the leading eastern and
midwestern sections report sharp
gains.

According to DR.. w. w. Peter, as
sociate secretary of the American
Public Health Association, many of
them are. To this cause, among
others, he attributes the prevalence
of winter colds.
Speaking on "Healthful Heating"
at the recent exhibition of oil burn
ing equipment for home furnaces,
held in New York city, DR.. Peter
said that the primary effect of high
indoor temperatures is to dilate the
tiny blood vessels of the skin and
concentrate the blood flow there at
the expense of the internal vital or
gans, and the habitual exposure to
such conditions lowers the tone of
the body and increases susceptible
ity to respiratory diseases.
AS a check on overheated houses
he advocated automatic tempera-
