may be compelled to step out of Office.
Mr.. Liggett's recent Fall River speech,
in which he said he believed any man
was entitled to take drink If he could
get it, continues to be widely discussed
in the State. So far, however, despite
the demand of former Gov. Alvan T..
Fuller, Mr. Liggett has given no indi-
cation that he proposes to resign his
lob as national committeeman. How
ever, there has been some discussion Of
successor to Mr.. Liggett. The sug-
gestion has been made that II he steps
out Fuller might be appointed in his
place, but that Is considered unlikely,
because Fuller would not care for the
Job and because the organization has
been opposed to Fuller in the past.
Mr.. Fuller continues to be something
Of a problem for the Republican poll
ticians. He has indicated he will run
for the Senate next year. This would
not please many of the regulars. They
would prefer to see him appointed to
diplomatic post abroad. But the
shadow of the Sacco-Vanzetti case will
not down. Fuller was Governor Of
Massachusetts at the time they were
executed for murder and took a firm
stand in the matter. This won him
praise in many quarters in' the State
and throughout the country. but it
made him marked man for the Com
munists throughout the world. II he
were sent to a European or South Ameri-
can diplomatic post. there would be
constant danger that efforts would be
made to assassinate him. It has been
suggested that Gov. Fuller might be
sent to the Far East as Ambassador
to Japan or as the diplomatic repre-
sentative of the United States in
China. But the question arises whether
he would be willing to accept such o
post.
The death recently Of Senator Tyson
of Tennessee has opened up wide field
of political speculation there. A scram-
Bile for the Democratic senatorial nomt-
nation in that State Is likely next
year. In the meantime, Gov. Horton.

Senator Tyson. The suggestion has
been made that safe way out for the

One finds the proof in the thrilling story Of the

Above it on the wall was a shelf
loaded with books.
The closet door stood open, and
hanging from a hook just inside
the door was a pink bungalow APP
ron-no doubt left there by Bry-
ants wife when she went away from
him and from this home Of theirs.
The pink bungalow apron was too
much for Chatty.
She switched off the lights and
went out into the kitchen where
Bryant was chopping ice.
The kitchen. too, seemed 10 De
fairly alive with the presence Of
Bryant's vanished wife.
Here, too, at the window, hung
little frilly white curtains, all daint-
lily made by hand.
The tea towels, on a white rack
above the sink, had been hemmed
BY hand. too. Besides the sink
stood q tall, white stool-Athe kind
that women sit on when they are
shelling peas or peeling potatoes.
Who keeps this place in such
wonderful order?" Chatty asked,
sitting down on the stool and feel
ing as II she had no right to be
there.

sently.
She got up from the stool and
wandered back into the living room.
Among the lowered silk cushions
Of the couch lay something small
and soft and white. Before she pick
ed it I'D she knew what 1t was. A
woman's handkerchief. perfumed
delicately, and finished with a roll
ed hem that had been done by

Chatty looked at the tiny neat
stitches. Stitches that were just
as tiny and just as neat as the
stitches in the curtains all over the
house.

Health and Right Living
BY ROYAL y. COPELAN1, M- I'D.
Former Commissioner OF Health

On more than one occasion + have
told you about the care OF the teeth.
There can be no doubt that atten-
ton to these Useful organs has done
much to promote the happiness Of
the human family.
More and more we have come To
realize that defects In the teeth
lay the foundation for serious i'll
ness. IL the teeth become abceSsed,
poisons develop which may carry
disastrous effects to remote parts Of
the body.
But what I have In mind today is
TO point out the necessity for thor
ough chewing OF the food. The food
Is prepared in the mouth for It's
journey Of digestion.
Unless armed with a passport you
would not get far in q foreign coun-
try. Unless the food Is thoroughly
chewed. the first step toward the
prevention Of indigestion has been
neglected.
In the breaking up Of the morsels
OF food by thorough chewing some
thing else is accomplished. The
saliva Is intimately mixed with the
food substance. This produces an
interesting chemical change.
Much Of the food we take. par
ticularly that coming from the veg
etable world, consists largely Of
starch. The mixture of the saliva
with the starch converts the latter
into sugar. That sug-r Is the pass
port indicating to the stomach and
other digestive organs that the
morsel Of food Is properly prepared
Tor its journey.
This step, known 10 the doctors as

Mr.. Hoover Sidesteps

Some weeks ago a committee representing tne

United States. They proposed rules and regulations
that would ultimately, provide q worthless and sport

no trouble In getting the presidents ear.
Then, last week. the National Association Opposed
20 Blue Laws sent a committee TO call on President

Hoover. They were armed with all sorts Of arguments.
they said, TO combat the proposals Of the Lords Day
Aliance-but they never did get q chance TO present
them. After cooling their heels about the White
House steps for four days therefore, the committee
members returned TO their homes. compelled to con-
tent themselves with the issuance Of statements eon-
corning their hard luck. Mr.. Hoover mad neatly side
stepped the visitors for a fishing trip down In Mary
land.
Apparently. the catching Of a good mess Of fish
was considered more interesting.

hasn't she?" she asked Bryant,
when he came back into the room
with a fat silver pitcher filled with
lemonade.
He shook his blond head.
And then Chatty held out the
handkerchief and showed 1t TO him.
He took 1t from her, his face red
dening.
We'll, she was here" he admitted.
and then he laughed in a shamed
sort Of way. Aren't you the little
detective, though? How did you
know that was my wife's handker-
chief?" He tucked it into his
pocket and began to pour out the
lemonade into two tall, yellow glass
tumblers.
Because It was hemmed by
hand" Chatty explained, simply.
The curtains are. too, and the sofa
cushions. And so few women 60

help noticing il. She made this
place awfully attractive, didn't she?
And how she must have hated 70

She ran one of her hands over the
soft, puffy silk cushions on the
couch.
Yes. she probably did hate leav-
ing" Bryant said, sitting down be-
side her. Darn jealous woman.
Oh, let's forget herl"
Ills voice was full Of annoyance.
Its hard not TO think Of her
here" Chatty told him, her big eyes
widening, in her own home. I'm
not coming here any more, either. l
feel as If i didn't have any right
To be herewith you
She got up from the couch and
set her yellow glass back upon the
tray.
Lets 60" she said.
This wasn't what she had ever
wished for, she thought, standing
there in the little dream flat that
had been made by another woman's
clever, patient hands 1t never
had been part Of her dream TO fall
in love with a married man, living
apart from his wife.
During the quiet lonely days when
she had sat sewing In Mrs. May
berry's back room, she had thought
Of love coming TO her as II should
come to girl. OF a man who would
be in love with her as he had never
been in love with anyone else. OF
marriage and a honeymoon and a
home for two people TO make and
to live in together.
Not this kind Of forbidden love
that had this flat and Winnie's flat
and roadhouses for its background
No this kind Of love affair that was
all mixed up win JOY rides and wild
parties, with cocktails and with kiss
Is that belonged another woman.
All at once Chatty saw just where
she stcod-on the dangerous ground
where a girl always stands when
she begins to 60 around with a
married man.
I'm goingl" she said aloud. and
without waiting for Bryant to get
his hat and follow her. she march
ed out OF the little dream flat and
down the stairs into the street.
The night air was as cool and re-
freShing as water upon the flushed
face she raised to the moonlit
darkness.
Bryant caught up with her just
outside the house.
Gosh, you act like q little COOP
tonight" he said to her. exaSpera-
ton In his voice. Come on, get

But Chatty shook her head.

''saIivary digestion" IN far more inn
p0rtant tor health than IS generally
recognized. Chewing the food thor
oughly is too commonly regarded
as a sort OF q fad. For SO many
years we have laughed nc "Fletch-
erizing.' that q suggestion 10 chew
the food more finely Is more likely
TO raise a laugh than meet with
a favorable response. I'm sorry
about this because many % cas OF
indigestion wuold disappear if the
teeth were encouraged to perform
their proper function.
Unless the starch we eat is pro-
cessed by the -ariOus digestive
juices provided for this purpose,
there is sure to be acidity. Heart
burn. belching Of gas, sour taste in
the mouth, drooling and stomach
ache are familiar symptoms OF
acidity. While constipation and
other factors enter into the prob
lem, there can be no doubt hat the
first OF the neglectful acts OF man
Is his failure to chew his food. That
is the beginning or his dyspepsia.

out of his arms. only I wish
your wife never had lived here with
you. 1t spells 1t all, somehow for
US, doesn't it?"
NO." he said, in an oddly gruff
voice. Lets forget herl And don't
talk about her any more, for the
love Of Mike. That's the only way
to do with people and with things
that are gone-put them out Of your
mind"
Yes, that was the way to do,
thought Chatty, pulling off her lit
tie close-fitting hat And that
was the thing to do with the
thoughts that bothered her. The
thought Of Agnes and the diary
that had lost her her Job. The
thought Of Mrs. Van, starting off on
q marital vacation because of that
same little diary. The thought Of
Dave Jordan. Above all, the thought
OF Dave Jordan!
Where do I go to powder my
nose?" she asked, and Bryant show
ed her a half-open door at the
end Of the little hall beyond the
living room.
Then he vanished behind a cur
tanned doorway on his way TO the
kitchen.
The room that he had shown
Chatty into was a bedroom.
In it were two white, twin beds,
q white dressing table and a white
chifforobe. At the windows hung
long, frilly curtains Of blue so paie
that they were almost white. The
beds were covered with spreads OF
the same delicate color, and SO was
the armchair that stood beside the
window.
Chatty stood looking around her
with wide. troubled eyes.
Between the beds a small lamp
with q bright yellow shade stood
on q little table.

HEALTH CHIEF HITS
FREE CLINIC PLAN
Jackson F'avorS Periodic
Physical Tests for All
City Population.

Periodic physical examinations
through the out-patient division OF
city hospital for persons unable to
paw for the health check was pro-
posed today by DR.. Frederick E.
Jackson, city health board presi-
dent.
DR.. Jackson Endorsed the periodic
health check plan, but warned
against the dangers OF free clinics,
as advocated by certain social
agencies.
persons who actually can not af-
ford to pay for this service should
have opportunity TO obtain free ex-
aminations, but there is no reason
why the city or state should offer
free service to those able to pay"
DR.. Jackson said.
"We already are offering free
medical aid to needy persons
through our out-patient department
at city hospital. There is no need
for additional free clinics, as pro-
posed by advocates of social medi-
cine.
Periodic physical examinations
are a good thing and should be en-
ployed as a means of determining
ones health reserve. Countries
which have tried state medicine
have encountered many difficulties.
The patient is the person who suf-
fers under the system of social medi-
cine.
1.-THE medical profession is glad
to give of its service to the poor II
it is established that person is I'M
able to pay for services. All OF our
out-patient service at city hospital
is donated.
"Social or state medicine destroys
the initiative of the medical pro-
fession and allows patients to suffer
in the long run. State medicine for
the poor should be confined only to
preventive medicine. People should
pay for r.ealth the same as in bust
ness"
