FRETFUL, RESTLESS?

1t is mild and gentle enough to
relieve a young infants collie
pains, yet is an effective regulator
for children Of school age.
When your baby is upset and
unable to sleep, or has a little cold
OF fever, it is wise precaution to
give him the gentle but sure regu-
Iative help of Castoria. With
regulation come relaxed comfort
and restful sleep.
Keep a bottle always on hand.
Children like the taste of real
Castoria-which always has the
name, Chas. H. Fletcher. on the
package.

Dear Jane Jordan am in love with
a boy 81 years old. He told me that ne
loves me and asked me if I love him and
said yes. He told a friend of mine
that he never would come back to see
me, because I am too young. What
she'll do to get him back?

CHAPTER 81

All the 81 years of her life
Val had looked forward to this,
to being married, and having a
home Of her own. And now
she had it.
Well, if this is all there is
to it then a girl might as we'll
stay single, she thought, trying
not to be too disappointed and
finding it almost impossible to
keep it from Joe.
Dear Joe. Joe was a dear.
She did love Joe, with all her
heart. When he was home and
they were together and there
was no one to come visiting,
and no place they had to go to
visit she was happy. Truly
happy.
But how seldom that was.
Joe had been so quiet when she
knew him at home. He had few
friends, never went anywhere.
Always home with his drawing
board and his pencil, or going
for a walk, or sitting out on

Everybody knew Joe here. He
was young Joel Carey, the
architect, nephew of the Hon.
Joel Joshua Bolton. Not just
one of the Careys who lived on
Cornish Street. Everybody
wanted zoe and his new wife
to dinner, everybody wanted to
come to Joe'S new apartment
to call.
She didn't dislike any of the
girls as much as Pearl, but she
didn't like any of them very
much either. And the men!
Well, they might be bright
from Joe's point of view-but
they certainly weren't interest
ing. Nor considerate. Always
talking about people and things
she knew nothing about. and
then if she did say some-little
thing about how much nicer
the flowers and fruit and
things were in California they
looked at her just as though
she had said something insult
ing. That showed how narrow
minded they were, and how
provincial!
well, I've tried to like
them," she told herself, I've
tried and tried. And I'm not
just being mean and nasty, be-
cause there are a great many
things about Minneapolis and
Minnesota that I do like"
To make a point of that, she
wrote long, descriptive letters
home to Aunt Julia, and Aunt
Julia, driven by loneliness and
the need to talk to someone
about Val, used to buttonhole
the ClarksonS whenever either
one of them showed themselves
in their garden.

The account of the anatomy
of the eye which was published
yesterday should be read in con-
nection with this account Of the
examination of the eye.
The oculist, or optician, in
making a routine examination
of the eye, first inspects the
external surface of the eyeball
and the inside of the lids for in
Illumination or other signs of
disease. The mechanism of the
tear apparatus is tested. The
eyeball is then felt for tension,
which might indicate the pres
ence of glaucoma.
BY having the patient follow
the movements of the exam
iner's finger, the external mus
cleS which move the eyes around
are tested. Paralysis of any one
of these muscles results in
Squint. The commoneSt cause
of acquired squint in adult life
is a chronic infection of the
blood, so that a complete eye
diagnosis will include an exam
ination of the blood.
The action of the iris is de-
termined by watching whether
the pupil contracts on the ad-
mission of light and whether it
accommodates for distance
looking at far and near objects.
The acuteness of vision is
tested by the familiar Snellen'S
type letters. The presence of
farsightedneSs, nearsightedneSs
and astigmatiSm can be decided
by arranging lenses and reading
these letters.
The field of vision is plotted
out by the use of the large
half moon shaped instrument
seen in all opticians offices.
This procedure is very impor-
tant in completing the diagno-
sis of nervous diseases. The
field Of color is not so often
tried.
The dark room examination
with the ophthalmoScope deter
mines first the clarity Of the
media of the eye, and locates
any opacity of vision, whether
in the anterior chamber in
front of the lens itself (cata.
ract), or in the posterior cham
Der.
More important in most cases
is the inspection with the OPP
kaleidoscope of the lining Of the
back of the eye, and the condi-
ton Of the optic nerve. In a
great many cases dimness of vi
sion arises from general bodily
disease affecting the structure
of the eye. Thus Bright'S dis
ease, diabetes and high blood
pressure cause changes in the
retina. Hence an examination
of the urine and blood pressure
readings often are demanded by
the oculist or optician. Many
nervous diseases are reflected
in the optic nerve.

The Rhymins
Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
The Sea Gull

Inc sea Gul
The air was filled with voices
Of birds I love at home;
They came each year to build
their nests
With no desire to roam.
The phoebe and the blue-jay,
The hooking bird and thrush
Poured forth their sweet and
joyous notes
From dawn till twilight's hush.
They were our friends, and gaily
They sang to us each day;
Not like this strange, strong sea-
gull
That wings from far away.
The sea-gull, sailing lonely
Above the tossing waste,
Is like driven spirit.
OF peace it cannot taste.
The sight of it, still soaring
Above the waves and foam,
Makes yet more dear to me the
thought
OF nesting birds back home!

Advice to the
Lovelorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Has He Any Chance at All?
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Do you think a fellow who
does not care for petting or to
see girls smoking has any
chance at all? I have been 60
ing with a girl off and on for
almost a year, and have never
tried to kiss her or to make
any of this so-called love bust
ness to her. I like this girl a
lot, but do not know how she
feels toward me. How can I
find out? We are both seniors
in high school.
PUZZLED"
Your comradeship with this
Schoolmate has started on the
best of all foundations-that
of friendship. If it develops
into something nearer, that's
still in the hands of fate.
AS for having any chances
because you do not indulge in
promiscuous love-making, my
dear boy-where did you get
that idea? Many girls object
seriously to what they call, in
their letters to me, being
mauled." AS one girl puts it
"they seem to be Self-starters,
as we'll as the cars they drive,
and I object. When it comes to
petting, I want to care a little
and not have it so automatic"

WASHINGTON FASHIONS

"Suits will be we'll in evidence
these Woodworking days before
U.S." says a well-known fashion
magazine. And that just hits
the nail on the head. Suits are
for hard-working days, whether
the work be shopping, business,
school, or simply play. The
thing to do is to pick out a suit
that will go all those places,
that is sports-like, but not too
sturdy to be worn on the street,
and you've solved much of your
problem. OF course, a suit is
an extra costume, because you'll
still need a coat, and some
dresses to go with 1t, but this
year a suit is almost an essen
tial, especially in our mild Wash
ington climate where we can
wear them practically all win
ter.
Fabrics are Novel
These Woodworking suits may
be of tweeds, of soft cloths like
the coats are made Of, or of
novelties, and there are rVany
delights among the latter. There
are plaid skirts with a plain
color jacket or swagger coat, or
even a suit made all of the
plaid. There are very Colorful
woolenS with neutral fur, such
as raccoon. And there are suits
of plain fabrics, but made in
such unusual ways that they
gain distinction. They can have
fur or not, their coats can be
any length you desire, and it's
all up to you what sort of
blouse you wear, but you'll want
several to take you the many
places that suit can go.
Tweed with Ostrich
One of the delightful novel
ties we've found is ostrich
tweed, and the suit sketched is
made of it. It's soft, yet sports
like, is brown, and has a light
fleck in it. The skirt is plain,
the jacket buttons right up to
the chin in youthful manner,
and the flattering little collar
and pockets are of French
beaver. It's priced $35, which
is awfully reasonable for such
smart little suit.
For further fashion infOrma-
ton, or for the name of the
store where you can find the
suit sketched, write Miss La
vile, enclosing a self-addreSSed,
stamped envelope, or call Dis
trict $3.50, extension 1879.

STYLE Notes

EASY TO PACK is an even
ing frock of black crepe with
a wrapped skirt that fastenS
at back with three diamante
buttons. The decollete at back
is formed by crossed straps
which extend from the bodice.
When buttoned the dress folds
flat, as the straps button with
sparkling buttons to each side
of the waistline.

Fashion Fads and
Fancies

The world over it's velvet for
autumn and winter. Not only
frocks and coats, but accessories
are all of this fabric in various
new weaves and piles. A new
evening bag is of white velvet
and has a border decoration of
twisted emerald green and
white to tone with the clasp
which has an emerald stone set
with brilliantS.

Fashion Facts

ONCE UPON A TINE broad
cloth was the favorite fabric
for winter coats and suits. Now
it is back again. A new broad
cloth suit with a belted jacket
is black and has a black galyak
yoke and scarf, the fur also be-
ing used to make half sleeves
reaching from cuff to elbow.
The only color contrast Is the
huge silver buckle on the belt
Of the jacket.

rs opening bid of 2,Spades
might have been questionable,
although he had two biddable
suits plus AZ quick tricks. A
overcalled with 3-Clubs. Y
passed, to show absence Of
quick tricks, although his part
ner may have believed the pass
due to shortness of trumps. B
bid 3-SpadeS, to show strong
support for clubs and no losing
spades. z shifted into 4-Hearts,
to show his second strong suit.
A bid 5-HeartS, to disclose lack
of losing hearts. Y bid 5-Spades
to indicate his preference for
spades should 2 decide to play
the hand. When B bid 6-Clubs,
z doubled. A passed, but Y,
realizing that his partner might
have misconstrued his support
ing bid, dared not let the
double stand, and he bid g.
Spades. The bidding showed
that whatever side strength A
held must be in diamonds. Up
on that ground B bid venture
some 7-Clubs. z did not double.
The bidding too strongly indi-
Gated the possibility that ABB
might fulfill grand slam con-
tract. Neither side was vul-
nerable and z calculated that
he risked less at 7-Spades than
in allowing his opponents to
play their own grand slam. or
course A doubled the grand
slam bid at spades.
A led his lowest spade. rs
@ won the trick. The declar'
er's K took a second trump
trick, and dummy won the
third trick with the 10.
There followed four heart
tricks, the last being won in
the declaring hand. A low dia-
mond was led towards the
dummy, BIS 9 won the trick. He
led his j of Clubs, and then
led the 3 of Diamonds. AS Q
won the trick, which was the
third and last trick won by
the defenders.
Cost 400 Points
z went down only three
tricks on his grand slam bid,
costing only 400 points. Had
ABB been allowed to play the
hand at a Club grand slam it
would have paid them 14O
points below the line and 1000
points for making a grand
slam when not vulnerable, be-
sides giving them the first half
of a rubber. rs decision to
play a grand slam rather than
risk allowing his opponents to
do so displayed uncanny wisdom
to the kibitzers around. Really
the whole thing was disclosed
by the bidding. A bid Hearts,
after that suit had been bid
by an adversary, plainly show
ing no hearts held. BIS bid Of
Spades showed that he had no
spades. These two suits az
forded ALB a perfect cross ruff.
z held the singly guraded K
Of Clubs. A had bid that suit
strongly and B had assisted.
Evidently no trick could be won
in Clubs by w.
Diamonds had not been bid
adversely, but Y would have
let the business double stand
if he held a side trick. The
bidding showed that ABB must
hold the diamond honors. The
best that z could even hope
would be that possibly Y might
win a late diamond trick, but
even that appeared improbable.

TEACHER LOST IN THE
 WOODS FOR FIVE DAYS

Lost in the woods; for five days and four nights was the narrowing .ex perience of Miss Agnes Schlosser, of Point Agassiz, recently, according to the Petersburg Press.
 Miss Schlosser taught the school at Point Agassiz last year and has spent her vacation there. Planning to walk to Thomas Bay one day and return the next, she fortified herself with a small handaxe and some sandwiches and started out one morning. The weather was favorable at the start, but turned rainy during the day, and meanwhile she lost her way. Her coat and sandwiches had been put down in her wanderings and she was un- able to relocate them, or the blazing she had done with the axe and was forced to subsist on hlueberries that she found in quantities. She stayed in a hollow log that night, getting some rest and shelter from the rain and cold.
 The next day she travelled all day, living on berries and water, and 8 bear'si den formed a. dry, and quite comfortable shelter that night. The following day was spent trying to locate Bear Slough and the night was spent on ledge from which she hoped to be- able to get her bearings. Her wanderings were resumed. about, noon on, the fourth day, and late that afternoon, she heard three shots and decided that a. search party was in the woods and that her energy must be conserved so that she might be heard when they came nearer.
 It was not until the fifth day that Miss Schlosser was found. The party that had started out that morning lost the trail, branched out, found it again and located .her when her reply to their shots was heard. Miss Schios- ser was said to be very much ex- hausted and had momentary cul- lapsed- She was carried the three miles to Point Agassiz and' taken to the Petersburg General Hospital.

MANY OLDTIMEHS WAITING

The Home at Sitka for indigent, aged pioneers is filled to it's capacity at the present time and there is a waiting list just now of thirty old timers, according to information re- ceived in Anchorage this week from the office of Governor George A.. Parks. Admissions will be made, for the most part, in the order of the filing of the applications, so there is the prospect that new applicants will have long wait.
 The Home has been filled to it's capacity for number of years, mak- ing it necessary for oldtimers to wait varying lengths of time to gain .ad- mission, except in rare instances, but never before was the demand for ac- commodations so great as it is at the present time, which undoubtedly will give new impetus to the campaign which is being made by Anchorage Pioneers to have new and larger home erected at some point in the rail belt, preferably in the immediate vicinity of Anchorage.

Fisheries estimates that between 50,O00 and 60,000 skins will be taken from the herd this year, as it is in July that the larger proportion of the skins is, taken. The Pribilof Islands seal herd, under the control and pro- lection of the Bureau of Fisheries, is yielding a larger harvest" year by year. This is said to be the result of scientific taking of skins so that the brood stock will not be diminished. Last year the take was about 50,000 skins. During the period in which the Bureau of Fisheries has had super visory powers over the taking of skins the herd has increased from about 125,OO0 to fully 1,127,000.
