One day, however, when Vera was eleven. a visitor noticed upon the cover of nature magazine large and realistic picture of rau- tier coiled in the position for strik- ing
 It reminded the lady of recent terrifying experience. She had been walking with a friend along a hot. dusty road. Suddenly at their feet they heard the ominous dry rattle. Her friend jumped too late.
 There followed a vivid descrip- ton of the agony, the suspense and the narrow escape from death. Vera. listening, felt chills of horror mounting her spine.
 A few days later when she was going out in the back yard to light the rubbish, 8 coiled rattler stared at her from the ground. The next instant she knew that 1t was only the corn cover of the nature maga- zine that had fallen out of the in- cinerator.
 Nevertheless she ran screaming into the house and from that day to this she had had fear of all snakes.
 The story illustrates one very definite way in which children &C., quire fear-that is, through experi- encing fear vicarously through some adults account ia terrifying experience.

Treatment of Tuberculosis

The ancient physicians who were acquainted with tuberculosis, pre- scribed for its treatment a wide variety of medicinal substances and procedures.
 Certain of these were extremely bizarre, but others were based upon good sense and medicinal observa- ton.
 Pliny, the Roman physician, rec commended wolf's liver infused in wine, or the tips of the burnt horns of bullocks.
 On the other hand, others of the ancient physicians recommended rest, ocean voyages, good food, and sun bathing.
 One of the first truly effective and organized efforts to treat tubercu- losis was made in the 18th century when George Bodington opened his first tuberculosis sanatorium.
 One of the items strongly rec commended by Bodington was fresh air. He urged the tuberculosis sufferer to live and breathe freely the open air, without being deter red by the wind or weather
 Bodingtons idea on the treat ment of tuberculosis were so con- trary to those current that his sana- torium failed. and, by the irony of fate. was reopened as an insane asylum.
 One of Americas contributions to the development of the modern tuberculosis sanatorium was begun by Edward Livingston Trudeau.
 Dr. Trudeau himself was tuber- culous. When still in his early twenties, knowning that he suffered from tuberculosis, he left New York city for the Adirondacks.
 But Trudeau did not die an early death. On the contrary, he lived to a relatively old age.
 It was Trudeau and a host of other workers who demonstrated that tuberculosis in it's early stages is a curable disease, and that cure depends primarily on three items adequate rest. adequate food, and fresh air.

 Machine-mad rugs are follow ing like designs with unusual eff fectivcness.
 While the old flower arrange ment that used to turn the living room floor into a hollyhock or rose garden is still included in the carpet and rug designs, thers has been considerable less blooming in such flower plots.
 The new motif prefers lines and squares, and either tones of the same color, or those that will fit into common background.
 Another interesting angle from which to view the new rugs Is the fact that they are entirely har- monious to almost any furniture grouping in spite of their modern istic designs. This is due, for the most part, to their simplicity.
 You are pretty certain to be laying the right foundation to household beauty if you start with a rug or two.

well. I'll be -" he began, then leaned suddenly over the table and caught my hand in his.
 That was about the scurviest trick one woman could play anoth- er," he said. You had every right to be so sore at her-and me, too that you'd never wipe your feet on either Of us I can't think what's got into Ede lately She used to be the squarest trick going, but this per formance-Phew. I'll say nothing tonight, but when I get down to the office tomorrow will I burn that lady up? Just watch me-"
 "Oh, but you mustnt~' I ex- claimed in panic. Don't you see, you can't without letting her know that l have told you about it. That would be, unthinkable. It wasn't especially chubby to tell you, but I don't see how could help it,'
 Tt was the only thing to do," my husband assured me Loyalty. And I can see your point about saying anything to Ede. But I'll take her iu hand generally. She needs a course of sprouts. She's feeling her oats altogether too much lately. If she weren't so darned efficient-the magazine wouldn't be worth half as much without her. His voice trailed away and I saw that in that instant he had dalled with and re- jected the thought of severing his business partnership with Edith.
 There's something with which I want you to help me- said quick ly, sensing that it would be wise to turn his attention from Edith.
 Name it." he responded as swiftly, and I guessed that he was himself glad to change the subject.
 He Has a Secret Plan
 Its all right to wear MT. Nerit- zen's flowers when all the rest of the women have them" I began slowly, but it isn't all right for him to get ideas concerning my wearing them. I am afraid he's try ing to be a bit theatrical about which flowers I shall choose, and can't bear him to think that I'd pre- fer his to yours. Isn't there same way we could-you could" I broke off at Dicky's quizzical smile.
 "Yes, dear heart. there's a way that I could" he said, "a nifty, sweet, really artistic way. But shan't tell you what it is. Just rest assured that while the deah old boy won't have even a wooden leg to stand on he cant blame you for anything, no matter how sore he is"

Madsc, Adopting Edith's Method of
 Warfare, Tells Dicky How "Ede"
 Trickily Set the Stage for Their
 Quarrel
 Dicky started as l asked him if he were not forgetting Edith, and his eyes were suddenly wrathy.
 "Ede." he calculated. Yes" this a bit shamefacedly, ''she knew was sending you flowers. She had spill , ed the beans about Veritzen send ing them to everybody, and she was there when I telephoned you"
 Heroically I repressed the retort that I had been sure not only of Edith's presence when he talked to me. but of the fact that it was she who had egged him on to interfer. ence, and Dicky hurried on: But surely she didn't say anything to Veritzen."
 With malicious glce which l think any wife would understand saw that the patent disgust which betrayed itself even in his disclaim- et was directed against Edith. I felt that I was lowering my own standard by accusing her, but the trick she had played made me ruth less. She had only herself to blame. I reminded myself, if I had to arm myself for warfare against her.
 Dicky Indignant
 That. of course, I cannot say" l ria tN l. ct ra ual. "but unless you impersonated Edith over the telephone I am at a loss to know how MT. Veritzen ac- auired the information which he later relayed to me and which was the reason for the query concerning whose flowers I was wearing which you overheard
 What dye mean, inpersonated Ede? 2" Dicky growled. Speak United States. cant you?"
 "Oh, surely I said, enjoying my self thoroughly MT. Neritzen telc- phoned me, saying among other things, that Edith had told him she could save him the expense and trouble of bouquet for her, be- cause she also was wearing a green gown, and that she could wear the one he had planned for me. She said that I was going to wear sand color and that a boy friend was sending me flowers. did not choose to have MT. Eeritzen keep that last impression. and I told him that you were the only man who sent me flowers, and that I would tell him later what I meant to do.'
 Dicky's eyes were fixed steadily upon my face as I talked, but by the time I had finished a shame faced look had crept into his eyes and his face and neck were crim- soned.
