CHAPTER Tx

CHAPTER Tx
A man in tall hat and dinner
clothes jostled against Barney
Shields and begged his pardon.
Shields muttered a reply and strobe
on. He looked neither to left nor
right but shouldered through the
crowd. Someone knocked his hat.
Shields caught 1t just in time to
keep it from falling.
The Sickening realization that
Celia was lost to him-lost utterly
blinded the young man. He did
not know where he was going. He
did not care
Then he became aware that some
one was shouting. 1t was his name

toward him calling his lame. The
mar lodged about a group and re-
appeared. 1t was Edward, the
butler.
Too disturbed to find this per-
Torrance strange. Shields waited.
What do YOU want?' he demand
ed when the butler reached him.
Edward was out of breath. She's
she's over therei" he gasped.
"She wants to see you"
She? Who do you mean?"
The electric spark OF hope kindled
and died instantly. Edward was
gesticulating toward a figure half
way down the deck. Shields was
no. sure that he saw the person
Edward was pointing out but GER
tainly ii was not Celia. Celia was
nowhere in sight.
Who is It? What does she want

The butler was struggling to re-
gain his lost breath and seemed in
capable of replying but he urged
Shields in the direction from which
he had come. For an instant the
young nan hesitated. Then he
followed.
They had gone 10 yards when
Shields uttered a sharp eXclama-
ton. He brushed past an inter
vening group. broke into a run and
halted before a woman in black.
Mrs. Rogersl" he cried. How
did you get here?" He caught the
woman III his arms, staring down
at her.
Margaret Rogers brown eyes
were wide and terrified. "Oh. Bar

"Oh. she's here all right. She's

The Once Over
ELMER wIrcHEL ON THE COMMON COLD

Il see by the papers," said Elmer Twitchell, that
the scientists who get out the Who's Who IN Germ
Life at John Hopkins University have confessed that
they can't solve the secret Of the common or house
and office type Of cold. After extensive research
they are almost as much in the dark on the cause
and cure Of an old-fashioned cold as the rest of Us.
"All the average man knows about a cold is that
it is aided and ahetted by wet socks, a date in the
rain. a defective furnace, a Saturday afternoon at an
intercollegiate football game, or something like that.
And the Johns Hopkins boys have not gone much
further. except to determine that a germ is at the
bottom of it and that this germ is about the most
elusive germ known to mankind" continued Elmer.
I could have told them that long ago.
4 viii admit, though, that I am disappointed. From
the victories they have had over major maladies Of
mankind I had thought the common cold would be
4 pushover for Johns Hopkins men.
They did succeed in establishing that the common
cold is caused by a germ and not by chemical changes
in the human body. This should result in an imme-
date cry for their money back on the part Of pa
tients whose doctors have been telling them that i
was all a matter Of a change in diet and the proper
anti-acid tablets.
We'll, anyhow. the Johns Hopkins boys have deter
mined that it's caused by a germ 50 small that 4.

Every attempt to isolate it has failed, and If these
great scientists can't even locate the bacillus with
all their scientific devices, you can imagine how fool
ish a fellow is when he tries to nail It with a hot
water bottle.
But the experts are not discouraged. They hope
to isolate the old-fashioned cold virus in due time and
then to provide a vaccine for 1t. In other words, YOU
will eventually be able to avoid a cold by getting
vaccinatedi
How do you think the average man will react 70

Twitchell was asked.

Given High Post by Voice of
People-Cordial Greeting

From Bogota.
MISS
ELIZABETH

When the Minister from Colombia,
now the President-elect of that country.
DR.. Enrique Olaya, returns to WASH
ington early in March, he will be re-
ceived with acclaim and as much
hospitality will be lavished on him as
his leisure will permit. He is now in
Bogota attending to imperative duties
pertaining to his exalted office, but he
will start on his journey North at the
earliest moment. The Pan-American
Union will honor him in a special way,
for although many Latin American
diplomats who served in Washington
have reached the highest ONCE in the
gift of their people, DR.. Olaya is the
first member of the governing board
to be elected Chief Executive while
serving in that capacity. He represents
his country on the board and for sew
eral terms he was vice chairman, the
Secretary of State being by courtesy
the chairman. But until the President
elect announces his plans definitely no
arrangements for entertainments will
be made.

much of her time in Baltimore in order
to be near her young daughters, who
are studying at the Convent of Notre
Dame in that city, will return to WASH
