Birth Marks

One Of the most widespread Of superstitions is the belief that Dir h marks are the result of some ex- ternal influence brought 10 bear on the mother during pregnancy. So deep-rooted is this belief that some peoples have definite taboos designed to obviate the danger of marking the child"
 Modern science brands these be- Iiefs as groundIess. The only con- nection between mother and child is through the placenta (the aft2r- birth) and through the exchange of blood serum that passes between them.
 Birth marks are known now to be dcvelopmental defects or peculiarj- ties. but their exact cause still re- mains unknown.
 All birth marks, or moles. as they are also called, are congenital, - that is. they are present at birth. Some among these, however, do not become apparent until later.
 Moles and birth marks differ in size, shape, location and color. Some are colorless and small, others 4re colored and large while still others rare hairy.
 When a moIe or birth mark is disfiguring, it should be removed, Since the mole grows with tue child, there is benefit in having it removed early.
 Moles usually can be removed by freezing. or by one or another of 1 the many means available to modern science.
 Tn older persons. black moles, moles that have changed color, CT which ulcerate or tend to ble:3 ], should be examined. Such moles especially if they have been subject | ed to irritation. may undergo a cal- cerous degeneration. This type oi

That something was Farmer Brown 5 Boy. That Crow was so young that he had never even heard of these two-legged creatures Of whom his father and mother were always so suspicious.
 Farmer Browns Boy was looking up at the nest. He saw the ven- turesome young Crow. He also saw how full the nest was. "BIacky must have some family this year, said Farmer Browns Boy to him. self Those young Crows must be almost ready to fly. I have mo- ton to take one of them for a pet.

Loves Reawakening The Story of Wife's Triumph Over Jealousy
 By ADELE GARRISON

rang the doorbell, beckoning Pur- nell to me as I did so.
 How long has this-certain party been in the room?" Not more than two minutes, |" Purnell assured me. T just brought him up. He said he'd sit by the window and smoke for a few min utes before going back"
 D,cky opened the door and stared in astonishment as l dashed by him, throwing q command to Purnell to come inside the apartment.
 Quick, Your keys 1 said to Lil- lian. And come over to the apart ment right away. Dicky, keep Pur- nell inside here until l come back. "
 What the" Dicky began, but I flashed past him and was unlock ing the door of the Underwood apartment before he could finish his sentence. Once inside, I gave a sibilantly whispered warning;
 Not a word, and don't move till I get there
 Both young faces looked up al me in anxious astonlshment as I tore back the porueres.
 "Tiptoe out of here" I whispered, and come 10 the other end of the apartment"
 Dicky Disapproves
 They obeyed me, and when we had put the length of the room be- tween Us and the radiators 1 told them in tones which I knew were lnaudible a few feet away of the presence of Noels father in the room adjoining us and Of the radi- tors in the wall near the alcove which would enable him 10 hear any ordinary conversation carried on in the apartment,
 He has only been there two or three minutes" I finished, but If he heard your voice. Noel he knows that you're here, something Of which he IS not yet sure"
 Mary flushed and dimpled and even Noers neck was crimson.
 You don't need to worry, Auntie Madge," she said. for to tell you the truth neither Noel nor I have spoken q word since you left"
 m spare your blushes," I whis- pered back, and not make a single comment except that I'm very re- lieved. Now, Noel. remember that not only the radiators adjoin. but the bathroom windows of the two suites are only little way apart. so be careful about opening that window. I'll cut back to the other apartment with Mary now, and do you stay here. Mr, Underwood vill be right over. but he will unlock the door. 50 you do not need to an swer any possible knock. Goodnight, Sleep late tomorrow"
 hurried Mary away upon the word. and. stopping only 10 see that the door was locked, dashed into our own apartment. Dicky was holding the door ajar just q trifle and opened 1t to admit us as we came up. But his face was stormy and his iclly courteous tones spelled his strong disapp-oval of my be- hayior.
 Have you finished With Purnells sorvices?" he inquired. "or IS there any other-mission-upon which you wish to send him?"

The Trouble Maker BY ALICE HUDSON PEALF

Whenever Jule joined group of children, things began to happen. Whatever game they were playing stopped a few moments after she had made her appearance to start q battle of enc sort or another.
 If they were playing house she swept the tea things of the table, saying that it was a silly way to play because they didn't really have any thing to eat. If another child was enjoying the swing she planted her self immediately in it's path so that he had to stop to avoid knocking her down.
 One day the youngsters had made a bridge Of blanks and sawhorses. Immediately Jule removed the mid de plank and ran away with it as fast as she could.
 Her particular gift, however. lay in her ability to turn all the chill dren against one child, preferably one who was not able to defend himself Some one of the smaller, gentler children of the neighbor-

|OLD-FASF1IONED CAPE COMES
 BACK TO MODERN MODE
By JEAN PATOU Written for NEA Service

"TltLeH TOT NEA SerVlCe
 Paris, July 24-Any new style, once presented, must necessarily evolve, although it may remain for some time the basic element the couturier works on. What I have particularly in mind is that detail of the mode which was introduced last spring, the cape, and which since then has figured in innumerable eve ming and afternoon styles, as we'll as those set aside for informal wear.
 The peril lying in such a detail of fashion that immediately proves attractive to every type of woman is to make too great a use of it. Every woman this year has possessed some form Of caped garment. but if a co'l- turier makes the mistake of ra- beating this style too frequently, the woman who owns an extensive ward robe will soon tire of it.
 Cape Makes Defects
 It would be a pity to exhaust so soon the innumerable possibilities and uses of the cape. As a matter of fact, it plays pretty much the same part in styles as does the blouse effect and the bolero. All these features of the present fash ions have a raison d'etre. They ln- peared with the normal waistline to mask whatever defects this new line revealed, such as too great width of hips. or a disfiguring roll Of flesh above the waist.
 I have planned very carefully, where capes are concerned. endeav- bring to vary the shape and cut in order to avoid any reminiscence Of the old-fashioned edition. For th.s very reason I never have made use of the tiered cape, as the result would have looked hopelessly out of-date.
 Candidly speaking. the cape in it. self never has been the object Of the style creators interest, but rather the cape effect. Whereas last year, full length capes were still to be seen, this years edition never ex- tends below the waistline,
 Limited in Use
 So far as long capes are concern ed they are fraught with many dis advantages. Unless a woman has that supreme elegance of bearing which enables her to wear a. long cape and look well in it, most other women only contrive to look stoc'iy in one. It detracts so much from a woman's height. whereas the shorter edition inparts a jaunty and supple look to even the most mature figures
 The long cape is uncomfortable. too, and lastly it can be worn only in 8 few circumstances. mainly when travelling. At any rate, when it does figure in an ensemble. eith ar the dress or suit it is worn~witll should be complete in itself

 At the sound of those softly run ming footsteps crushed down the panic which lnvoluntarily shook me, and, reoching back of me, l made sure that the door Of the Un- derwood apartment in which I had left Mary and Noel, was safely lock CT, Then l advanced to meet the ln- truder, prepared for anything,
 But the next second my fears left me, for it was Purnell who rounded the turn in the corridor-Pruneu, the colored belIboy whose faithful ness IS as pronounced as is the lu- dicrous formal courtesy with which he invests all his services.
 saw in the next instant that t was a curiously agitated Purnell who looked over his shoulder as he rounded the corner. and who stop ped with his back close to the wall and peered into the main corridor before proceeding farther, When he turned he saw me, evidently for the first time, and his jaw dropped lu- 5icrously. Then he recovered him. self and made me the loH bow which we privately dub the Pur- nell salute"
 Startling News
 l hope you will excuse me for this informal intrusion, Ms Gra- ham, he said, but I judged it was highly necessary for you to know some information which just came to my ears, Perhaps you remember you asked if a certain person was n the lobby tonight. judge it IS better to mention no names"
 I choked back 8 smile and hoped Dicky would not appear to find me engaged in this apparent melodra- matic conspiracy with Purnell.
 Yes, I remember" I said sober Iy
 Then you perhaps will be inter ested to know that the same party has just rented another room on this floor, not giving up his own suite, you understand. but taking this one extra. saying he might need it for friend. I took him up there just a minute or two ago, and then I raced over here 10 tell you.'
 Thank you so much, Purnell," I said hit unsteadily, for my pulses were racing T shall not forget this Where is this room 2"
 Tt is just back Of the Under wood suite" he returned The bathroom windows are only a little way apart and the room is just the other side Of the living room Of the Underwood apartment.

There is great difference in chill dren. Yes. sir there is q very great difference n children. Some arc naturally timid, some are natural Iv bold some are naturally obedl- ent; some are naturally disobedient; some think they know all there IS to know. seldom will you find two children alike in any family. Per haps this IS just as we'll.
 Blackv the Crow and Mrs. BlackE th1s year had little larger family than usual Usually they had four children. but this year they had five: and, as Blacky said, the fifth one made more trouble than the other four put together. From the time he was big enough to get into trouble it seemed as if he were in trouble most of the time. You see, he vas q vanturesome youngster. He wasn't content just to eat and sleep, It seems as If he just had to be squirming about. even when he was a very little fellow. Being what he was he always got his full share Of food, and sometimes a lit- tie more. The result was that hc grew a little faster than his broth CTS and sisters.
 There came a time when the five young Crows somewhat crowded the nest that was built for four They filled it to d point where it looked as if they might fall out Mother Crow warned them that they must keep quiet or one of them would fall
 If one of you should fall out" |" said she. you not only would have a bad fall. but somebody might catch you and eat you, for on the ground you would be helpless"
 When Mother Crow had gone to look for more food the venturesom ? young Crow poked his head over the side and watched her until she was out of sight. Then he got up on the edge of the nest.
 Look out, or you'll fall." said one of his brothers. You hear what Mother said"
 Yes" said the venturesome young Grow. T heard. She was just trying to scare us. I'm not afrSid. I believe I could fly if really tried. It looks very interest ing down below. 1 would rath ar like to go down there and see what is to be seen."

ACCESSIBILITY of employing an ex-
pert to supervise municipal golf
courses, abolishing the system OF in
dividuaI course managers next year,
will be considered by committee of
golf experts to be appointed by
Adolph G. Emhardt, park board
president.
Considerable complaint has been

There will be no change until next

tomb for eleven persons.
Bodies of seven others we're be-
lieved buried in the debris.
Pulling steam engines, derricks
and tractors tore at the twisted
wreckage of the smokehouse which
literally was lifted from the earth
late Thursday when an explosion
tore through the Six-story building.
Firemen believed the blast was
caused by igniting of fumes from
an ammonia plant.
Dropped in Heap
The heavy structure was lifted
into the air and dropped in a
crumpled, twisted heap. Fire, which
broke out after the explosion ana
ragged for half hour, added to the
horror of the scene.
The explosion occurred when the
majority of works. we're homeward
bound. Twenty-Five persons en-
ployed in the sausage shop in the
smokehouse miraculously escaped,
only one being injured.
The work of rescuing the injured
and searching for the bodies Of the
dead was accomplished under most
