 Her manner was even more im- pressive than her words, and l re- solved to put aside my scruples and watch for the opportunity to ex- anime the ornament which I was sure lay hidden near Eleanor Lin- coln's heart.
 The chance came more suddenly than l thought. She came into the library one morning when 1t was SO cold and rainy-an occasional Long Island summer phenomenon-that saw her shivering and advised her to keep on her scarf and coat until could have a fire built in the grate. But before Jim, whom I summoned immediately, could get the fire built. the telephone rang, and the next minute Katie ran down the hall and burst wildly into the room.

 It attacks the Joints and muscles , of the old and the young, the hod carrier and the banker. the college president and the tight rope walker | But despite general knowledge of the disease, there exists a great deal of transformation about 1t and ] much still remains to be learned by 7 the medical profession regarding it's causes and treatment.
 To the average man, rheumatism means an aching or stiffness of the joints or muscles. While there ts , little doubt that rheumatic fever is all acute. infectious disease caused by germ or germs. scientific knowledge of these germs is !ncom- i plete.

In recent years medical science 1 has gathered considerable evidence that the accumulation of pus from 1 diseased teeth and tonsils, con- stantly adding to the blood small quantities of poison. produces symp- toms generally designated as rheu- matism. With the location and re- moval Of the focal infection. the so- called rheumatism often disappears with startling rapidity.
 When a physician has discovered the existence Of focal infection. the spot of infection should be re- moved unless by its extraction con- siderable risk of life is incurred. The removal of a pus pocket fre- ! quently relieves the distressing symptoms in a rheumatic joint. Conservative physicians and dent ists. however. do not advise the ex- traction Of teeth which show only slight infection upon X-ray exami- nation, provided the teeth are other wise sound.
 Rheumatism often follows a cold, !tonsilitis or some other acute re- spiratory condition. Prolonged ex- posture to wet or cold weather may be a contributing factor.

 Blonde skin should have the most exquisite care, if the owner wishes 10 retain its delicacy of quality and coloring after reaching thirty. By that time the once rose-petaled com- plexion is often drab and colorless. while the brunette. whose vivid color has better withstood the dey- astating effect of the changing sea- sons. is at the height o, her beauty.
 Both blonde and brunette who wish to preserve their youthful com plexion must exercise the utmost care in bathing the face, never using hard water, and disseminating the use of any soap that produces the slightest drawing o, the skin, for this shows the withdrawal of the
