NnIimited aHantities without producing
disturbing after-efects. They called
this new preparation Salicon. But as
they were very busy, during that busy
wartime period, with other important
work, they took no steps towards
marketing Saloon.
That was the situation when the
flu epidemic hit Boston.
At the close of the first week of the
epidemic the doctors were almost at
their wits end. 1t seemed impossible
TO make progress. The cases were null
tiplying. The death rate was terrify-
ing. 1t was at this moment that in
some way the United States surgeons
heard of the preparation which those
Boston chemists had been experiment
ing with-something that was germi-
cidal, yet harmless, and might work.
1t was late on Saturday afternoon
that they got in touch with the presi-
dent of the company that devised
Salicon. He was at his home. They
ordered large supply to be delivered
Immediately. An hour or two later
this order was duplicated by the Mas
sachusetts State Medical Officers. The
new preparation was supplied as soon
as possible.
To tb: amazemcnt of all concerned, its
adminiStratiOn began TO eontrOl tbs fearful
epidemic.
At last the long sought secret had
been foundI
For Salicon, instead of being limited,
like the old-timc preparations, TO doses
of tablets, could be given in amounts
ofz4 tablets and even more in "a hours.
And these large doses brought about
prompt lessening of the fever, with
out disturbing either stomach or
heart, and started patients towards re-
covery. Besides fit" cases, many cases
of pneumonia yielded to treatment
with Saloon. This was truly remark
able, for the forms of pneumonia which
developed during that flu" epidemic
were unusually difficult TO overcome.

SUGAR MAKES
EATING A JOY
Why eat unhavored, unappe-
tizing foods?

A change is coming over the we'll
informed eating ideas of this coun-
try. For time food faddists tried
to make us believe that we had to
eat all kinds Of things We didn't like
in order to be healthy.
Good sense is beginning to assert
itself, and we now know that the
foods that are good for us may also
be the most enjoyable. In fact, If
we don't like the healthful foods, we
probably won't eat them.
Prominent medical and other
scientific authorities are now re-
mtnding us that appetizing havors
may be developed and improved by
sugar. One well known scientist, for
example, states that fruit favcrS
are developed by sugar. Fruit acids
are softened by sugar"
The only safe rule for a healthful
diet is to eat as large a variety of
foods as possible, including health
full cereN's. fruits and vegetables
made apLNtizing to the taste by the
judicious use OF sugar Sugar is not
only nutriment in its least costly
form. II is Natures perfect flavor
Sugar develops the appeti2ing quail
ity of nearly all fruits. Desserts of
fresh or cooked fruits are growing
more and more popular. Modern
candy containing fruits, nuts and
pure sugar is delicious and satisfy
ing at the end of a meal.
No one should oVereat or under
4 exercise, but every one, in order To
/ be healthy, should eat plenty Of

|HE evening of Anne's partyl
Three hearts beat with un-
worted eagerness that night,
l. and for three entirely different
reasons.
To Anne the evening marked the last
chapter of her impersonal relationship
with Richard. Soon now, perhaps this
very evening, she would contrive an
emotional climax between them.
To Richard the evening meant his
meeting the dancer who had so stirred
his imagination. Nor was he entirely
blind to the significance of his play
ing host at Annes party. But he
pushed this problem back in his mind.
He was not at all sure he cared for
Anne, and even less sure she cared for
him.
To Yvonne the evening meant a
chance of seeing Richard her husband;
of testing the power of her disguise. of
watching her rival at work, of assur-
ing herself that Richard did Or did not
care deeply for Anne.
Anne was wearing a new dinner frock
of red chiffon BrilliantS in her ears,
band of them about her hair and
bracelets on either wrist completed her
costume. Silver slippers twinkled on
her feet. She looked every inch the
poised society girl blossoming into de-
Sirable wOnanhoOd.
Yvonne had decided to go in eve
ming dress. She would take q costume
and if the spirit moved her she would
dance for the company. She had chosen
q dress of shell pink taffeta, made with
a tight bodice and full skirt scalloped
around the edge. She wore no jewels
Around her neck was thin platinum
chain, the end of which was hidden in
her bodice. On it hung her wedding
ring. To Offset the simplicity of her
frock she wore an elaborate evening
cape of black velvet, lined with she'll
pink crepe and collared with ermine.
At the last moment she put chaplet
of tiny rosebudS around her head. She
was enchantingly youthful. Pausing
before her mirror, she made up her
mouth artfully.
The result was startling. Bewitch-
ing youth was caught in her dress, her
small silver shoes, the rosebudS on her
hair. Worldly wisdom and hard-won
knowledge were painted on her mouth.
Yvonne nodded at herself. "I am stun
ning," she told herself without egotism.
II am stunning and am different"
Anne welcomed her guests tor din
ner with the easy grace of all expert
enced hostess. This was side of her
Richard had not seen. Her dignity
sat we'll on her. Quite suddenly she
had grown up, and for brief mo-
ment he saw her, mistress of his house,
gracious and lovely.
At dinner there was much talk of
the dancer whose coming late in the
evening kept the party at high pitch
Of expectancy. Anne did not tell them
of her surprise in finding Mademoiselle
to be young girl. That she would
leave for them to discover. All she
would say when pressed to tell what
Mademoiselle was really like off the
stage was, "Wait-you1l be surprised"
1t was little after IL when Yvonne
arrived. Couples were dancing in the
great living room on the first floor In
the sun room bridge tables were in
session. In the small music room,
which opened from the living room, a
talented girl was playing, and Richard
was stretched back in a chair, listen
ing and waiting for Anne to be free to
dance with him.

OBSTACLES FACE
LATIN AIR LINK
Germany Enters Into South
American Field Under Con-
tract With Colombia.
BY WILL IRWIN,

Special Wireless Dispatch to The Star and
the North American Newspaper Alliance.
ABOARD u. S. S. UTAH, En- Route
to Hampton Roads, December 3l.-AS
Prosident-elect Hoover'S South Ameri-
can tour fades into retrospect the
thought occurs that the most immedi-
ate task in the big job of solidifying
good relations between the two conti-
nentS disclosed by the goodwill visit is
perfecting our aerial communications.
I have already described the new
French air line which brings Paris
mails within nine days Of Rio de Janeiro
and ten days of BuenoS Aires. But the
Germans are also active. They main
tain mail lines under government con-
tracts in Colombia and parts OF Brazil.
In Bolivia, which in the future may be
the storm center of South American
trade, German mission is training
the army and using the army planes
for carrying mail between the principal
citie3.
An american company, as before
stat d, .as mail contracts in Peru and
is ci:-- cred for an eventual through
connco; OH between Washington and
Lima. Those two points are about as
far apart as New York and San Fran
cisco, which our mail planes connect in
36 hours.
There is more to be done, however,
than getting the planes and setting
them flying. The perfect air route
must have landing fields with beacons
every so miles. At the very least. there
should be landing field every $50
miles.
Germany has already cut into the
ideal route. She is operating under
contract the mail routes of Colombia
Parenthetically, in return for certain
privileges, the company gives the gov
ernment the right to commander all its
plants and material in time of war.
This has its Importance for us, in view
of the proximity of Colombia to the
Panama Canal.
But on purely commercial side we
cannot now connect the Panama Canal
with Lima by air via Colombia without
making some compromise with the Ger
man company. We can overcome that
obstacle in pinch by flying from PAN
ANA to Ecuador direct. But if while
we hesitate some enterprising European
company, in view of the sudden and
lively demand for air mail in South
American countries, steps in and Sews
up Ecuador, we shall find our way to
Lima barred. That connection with
Lima is as far as we need look at
present.
The next stage of our Washington
BuenoS Aires route is over the rugged
and comparatively uninhabited North
Chilean desert, where there are special
obstacles to overcome.
This matter is of such Importance
that it merits the immediate attention
of all individuals and organizations con-
cerned in the pleasant political rela-
tIonS and in trade unhampered by arti-
flcial restrictions between the two
American continents.

living room, puzzled expression on his
face.
Yvonne could not know that Anne
had overp!ayed her hand while the
guests were waiting for Mademoiselle
to change. She had taken Richard to
the porch on some pretext. There she
had quite frankly drawn close to him,
saying. isn't it wonderful. Dick-to be
able to like the same things and people
as we do?"
Automatically he clasped her hand.
In moment she was in his arms, her
head on his shoulder, whispering,
Dick, you do love me-tell me So"
But Anne" he protested. He
was horribly embarrassed This, to
follow so soon the pricking of his
conscience about Yvonne, made him de-
cidedly uncomfortable But Anne
there is Yvonne, you know"
Anne withdrew drying her eyes. She
knew her mistake at once She ragged
within. This puritan! For a moment
she hated him. Then she said sweetly,
Forgive me, Richard. Let us go in
Richard was relieved. There was not
to be a. scene then. He felt grateful
to Anne, but at the same time a little
resentful that things we're moving SO

down the stairway. With her draperies

rather than step. A space was cleared

had been playing when Yvonnc arrived

hand close on hers. But the moment
passed and she was one Of a chattering
crowd.
Richard was being desperately as
sailed by his conscience. The dancer
looked like his wife. Each glance at
her brought back Yvonne's pure face.
But as he grew more accustomed to
these resemblanceS he found they both
cred him less. How lightly she an
swered his chaff of the conversation
when it was tossed her way How she
smiled at the men who were present.
How easy and sure her manner was.
She was worldly with all the assur-
ance of French woman of the world,
fair sport for the men who were fiat
tering her.
Still, she had given him a nasty turn,
making him think of his wife that way.
He would show her that there was one
man who was not fascinated by her
He went to Anne's side and more
openly than ever before signaled her
out for his attention. He did not know
how Yvonne watched him. Nor could
he have any idea of the stab she felt

Inwardly she was making her last great
decision. Was she to leave the field
free to Anne? Or was she to fight
for her own?
She was being asked to dance.
Thinking only of Richard, she con-
sented. It was when she stood before
the long mirror, gazing at herself,
ready TO descend and dance that she
took her resolution She would not
give her husband to another womans

Suddenly he heard some one say ex-
citedly, "SheS here"
AnneS high voice came to him. Then
a voice answering that made him start.
That-that was surely-no, he was
mad. But for all that it was Yvonne's
voice. He could swear it. He listened
more intently. The new voice was
speaking English, perfect English, with
only a hint of accent. 1t was saying
the correct things. There was the
sound of heels tapping up the stair.
Richard sat Imply in his chair. He
wondered what his wife was doing
working at the Spring planting prob
ably, going to early mass, waiting on
the old grandparents.
He felt a sudden repugnance for what
he was doing. Yvonne was sweet and
lovely and good Perhaps he ought, as
q man of honor to chuck all this and
go to her For there had been in
Annes demeanor that evening sweetly
proprietory air that had both thrilled
and alarmed him. To the observer he
knew she would suggest some hidden
understanding, as of secret shared
by Richard and herself, which they
would soon declare to the world.
The dancer was coming down the
stairs. He heard her remark on the
beauty of the long living room, listened
while she acknowledged the introduce
ton. He got to his feet. Through the
doorway Yvonne saw him. Panic seized
her. She must run, vanish before he
saw her. She smiled at Bob West,
who had bent over her hand, and took
a resolution. Bob had shown no sign of
recognition. She would carry through.
Then Richard stood before her.
This is Mr.. Ross, Mademoiselle, "
Anne said in her bright voice.
YVonne gave him her hand. Their
eyes met. She saw sudden fear in
Richards eyes. Fear replaced by ad-
miration and interest
"He is thinking of his wife whom
he believes in France" thought Yvonne.
The thought gave her courage. She
smiled at him. With this she felt his

AND THEM

At this point let us go back some
years so that you may understand more
fully what happened later.
About 1860 an important scientific
discovery had been made, known as
Salicylic Acid. This preparation was
found to possess remarkable medicinal
virtues. Used internally it stopped pain
promptly. In addition, it acted as
germicide in the blood. 1t was the first
germicide discovered that could be
safely fused in this way in large
amounts. However, salicylic acid in
its crude form was highly irritating
to the stomach and therefore could be
given in very small doses. So chemists
and physicians undertook to find some
way of controlling its good qualities
and eliminating its harmful ones.
Soon many salicylic acid prepara-
tions were introduced to the medical
world. Each one showed some advance
menr over its predecessor, but none
were capable of being given in large
enough quantities to accomplish really
big results.
In 1900 some German chemists
thought they had successfully solved
the problem: They produced an acetic-
acid-ester of salicylic acid or, more
specifically, 'mono-acetic-acid-ester
ofsalicylic acid. This they introduced
under the trade name of aspirin.
While aspirin marked slight i'm
provement over the preceding saiicyl-
ates, the maximal dose that could be
given in "a hours TO the normal patient
without causing gastric distress was
40 grains. That is less than one third
of what is actually required to suffl-
GENTLY change the blood stream.
In the winter of 1917 and 1913 GER
tain Boston chemists after long expert
menting, devised salicylate which,

with admiration. Her heart expanded.
"Play again" she commanded, 'merrily."
No fairy flinging herself from rose to
rose ever stepped more daintily than
Yvonne as she danced this encore. All
the faces were smiling broadly as she
finished. Kissing her hands to them
she vanished up the stairs. When she
came down she was wrapped in her
velvet cape. Richard was standing
with the others clustered about the
foot of the stairs.
There was clamor of praise and
thanks for her performance. She was
standing near Richard at last. She
gave him her hand and smiled up into
his eyes.
win you not come to see me?" she
asked.
Richard bowed, "I should love to.
May I call tomorrow"
Il shall be in at tea time" she an
swered.
Expect me then"
A moment later the door had closed
behind her. and Richard, strangely
moved, restless, dissatisfied, weary, was
making his adieus to a hostess for
lornly certain that many of her bright
est dreams lay in dust.

THERE is prevalent at present a
l. wave of influenza which in some
places is reaching epidemic proper
tions. This form of flu is rather mild
in most cases where prompt medical
attention is given. But if neglected, it
can, and has in many cases, developed
into more serious trouble.
Everyone remembers the last vista
tion of this dread disease in 1918. For
your safety let us tell you briefly what
was done to stop it.
For year there had been rumors Of
an epidemic of influenza in Asia and
Europe. But it was not until September
1913 that the first case in this country
broke out. The case was on the United
States Receiving Ship stationed at East
Boston, Mass.
In an incredibly short time many
recruits were down with the "Au
and the ship sick bay was full to over
flowing. Realizing the seriousness of
the situation, and the inadequate quar-
tiers on board the ship, the Massa-
chusetts State Guard Medical Authori-
ties volunteered their services in order
that the patients might be removed to
hospitals.
This work was undertaken under
the direction of the late Surgeon-Gen-
eral, DR.. VIM. A. Brooks. A tent hos
pital was established on Corey Hill.
outside of Boston, corps of doctors
and nurses assembled, and a derach-
mcnt of the State Guard ordered out
on duty to police the camp and gener-
ally. aid in the treatment of the sick.
The sailors from the ship in East
Boston were rapidly transferred to this
hospital camp.

nurses except one took the

at the various state camps were so
effective that commissions from the
states of Illinois and Ohio were sent
to Boston for consultation.
To illustrate how successful these
methods really were, here is a single
instance. On certain island in Boston
Harbor 66 out of g inhabitants were
i'll with the influenza at one time. By
direction of the Surgeon-General, Sali-
con was given to all of them. Epsry one
recovered. This happened at time when
one out of every 100 persons in Boston
was dying!
These are examples which show the
wonderful efficiency of Saloon under
extreme conditions. 1t is a most re-
markable remedy for overcoming o
cold. Two tablets taken at the Begin
ming of cold will quickly check it.
Saloon acts just as promptly in
stopping headaches and other forms Of
pain, and is much to be preferred to
most of the Older forms of medicine
which, when taken in doses large
enough TO be really efficient, almost
always upset the stomach or afecs
the heart.
