a DAY.
oY BRUCE CATION

DERHAPS you've never heard of
Il the battle of Monacacy, in
Maryland, but according to Fight
ing for Time" by Glenn H. Worth
ington, it was the decisive battle
of the Civil war
Making no literary pretensions,
the book states its major premise
early and then sets out to prove it
by quoting from statements of gen.
erals, statesmen and the men in the
fighting.
In case you don't know, Monocacy
was the engagement between Gen
Jubal E. Early's confederates and
General Lew Wallace'S slender band
which had been sent out to save
Washington.
Fought in July, 1864, it came as
the most important engagement of
the last confederate invasion of
Maryland.
The result of the battle. so
Worthington tells us, was unimp or-
tant. AS a matter of fact, Early
drove Wallace back in great con-
fusion, took 700 prisoners, and pro-
ceeded to the very gates of the ma
tons capital.
The important par was that the
battle delayed Early's march for
twenty-four >hours and gave Lin
coin time to muster forces for the
defense of Washington.
But to us, at any rate, the most
interesting chapter in the whole
book is the one devoted to the diary
of Union soldier captured in the
battle.
He was imprisoned at Danville,
Va, and his picture of life in con-
federate prison is both clearly and
painStakingly drawn.

explained Then, feeling rather fool

Yes Let's go somewhere where
we can talk" said Mr.. Garretson,

for the three to move before at

they told me at the steamship Office

chance finding a boat to carry me
across to Holiday island or that I
could go to Port Of Spain and char

He smiled beamingly. Il came
ashore to inquire and here I find
you"
Wen get your baggage" Barry
announced Hospitality, and then
run you over to Holiday in no time.
We we're just starting - had been
waiting for the mail"
The luggage was on board the
Helena and Barry said he wuold go
for it. Just give me your checks, "
he said. We'll, then, if you haven't
checks, your cabin key will do"
Let's all go together" suggested
Mona. Mr.. Garretson seconded the
remark.
L thought you might like to have
tea" Barry said, hesitating. It's
going to be dark soon. Well have
to shove off before long"
"Oh. tea can wait" agreed Mr.
Garretson and Mona in the same
breath. 1t was as though neither of
them cared to be left in the COM
pany Of the other just then.
She doesn't want to be alone
with me, the lawyer decided. MAY
be she thinks I'll interfere if she
wants to marry that boy"
He knows Barry wants me to
marry him" thought Mona, and
he's here to prevent it. Just let him
tryl"
Suddenly she knew that all along
she had been determined to marry
Barry. She wanted to seize Barry's
arm and tell him So to kiss his
cheek and end this foolish uncer-
tainty forever.
Let the sailors home, the orphan
age have the Townsend millions.
What did she care? She and Barry
could take care of themselves!
Instantly she knew what she
really had known always, but had
refused to recognize-that she would
marry Barry on his own terms.
DLINDLY she followed him to the
- jetty clambored aboard the mo-
tor launch and seated herself while
Barry adjusted the wheel. The
launch glided, suffering, out to-
ward the Helena.
Mr.. Garretson, across from Mona,
smiled as the cooling breezes struck
him. 1t was as though he, too, had
a secret.
He thinks he's here in time"
Mona told herself.
The stewards came running down
the companionWay with Mr.. Gar
retson's bags. They slowed them
beneath the launch seats. Waving
the lawyer away, Barry tossed the
boys handful of silver.
The water Sprite backed away
from the ladder and then, whirling,
made off for the space between the
two arms of green shore.
Are you near here?' Mr.. Garrett
son asked.
Not far. It's three hours by boat,
fifteen minutes or less by plane"
The boat sped onward silently.

blood than the female. A similar dif-
ference has been noted among human
beings.
Sex Sometimes Changes.
The puzzle of sex differentiation, DR..
Riddle explains, hinges largely on the
fact that, while the differences are
known by geneticists to be established
before birth, nevertheless the sex, espe-
cially of birds, is known sometimes to
change after birth and even In adult
life
The present experiments, he empha
sizes, show that the real difference
present from the beginning, upon
which all the other differences may
depend, is in the capacity for oxygen
consumption. The probability seems
established, he says, that the excess
values of red blood cells and pigment
"cling to maleness because they are a
real part of the metabolic machine and
sex differences take their basis and
origin in the metabolic differences.
These factors determine the muscular
and other effort expended in respira-
ton, work Of the circulatory organs,
regulation Of heat loss and level and
degree of nerve action thus involved.
Directly and indirectly they calibrate
with the digestive work and secretory
flow"

OXYGENMAY SOLVE
SEX DIFFERENCES
Bird Study Shows Female
Consumes Less Than
Male of Species.
BY THOMAS Z. HENRY.

The female of the species consumes
less oxygen than the male.
This may be the fundamental dlf-
ference between the two sexes, under
lying everything else. according to eX-
perimentS conducted by biologists OF
the Carnegie Institution of Washing
ton These experiments with wood
doves and pigeons promise a way out
of the battling biological paradox OF sex
differences.
The significance of the difference
found by Dr. Oscar Riddle of the Car
negie staff is that presumably it eX-
tends to every cell of the body and to
all species OF animals and affects all
phvsiological processes Just sufficiently
to cause the eternal differences between
the sexes.
Held Basic Factor.
The difference shows up in its true
light. DR.. Riddle says, in the funda-
mental factor of basal metabolism, the
ratio between inhaled oxygen and ex-
hailed carbon dioXide. In warm
blooded animals this decreases as the
temperature is increased. That is one
reason why persons don't feel so en-
ergetic in hot weather.
At temperatures ranging between SO
and 68 degrees F. the basal metabolism
of the ringdoves was not greatly differ
ent-only per cent higher for the
males Then the room temperature
was raised up to Sc F. The basal
metabolism of the males decreased %
per cent and that of the females 20
per cent. This held with other species
of birds.
In accord with this phenomenon, DR..
Riddle found that there are larger
numbers of red cells and larger
amounts of oxygen-carrying pigment in
the male blood-at least so far as the
pigeons are concerned, and there is
evidence that the same difference ex-
tends throughout the animal kingdom.
The male ringdove, for example. has

John Golden, in years gone by, made
many courageous efforts to do his own
shaving. Had he put notch in the

which nicked easily. For years after
that he was a patron of one shop.

THE JEWELER OF
MONTROSE.

There was once an old man who
collected jewels, rare jewels with a
story attached to them. He lived
alone in a small dark room. He
used to say he liked it dark for it
showed the jewels off to better ad-
vantage. Their light would sparkle
more. Here he would always take
a new purchase and handle it ten
derby, planning its setting, remem-
bering its story. On snowy night
in December the old man climbed
the rickety old stairs in great ex
element. That day he had made a
rare purchase indeed. The great
yellow diamond that for years had
been the charm Of the royal Ru-
dolphs had been sold at auction.
The old jeweler had hurried to the
scene to be the first and last to
bid. And when he finally had the
jewel in his possession he tucked
it into his inside coat pocket, keep
ing his hand over 1t all the way
home so fearful was he that he
might lose 1t.
When he reached his room he
took the bag which held the pre-
cious jewel from his pocket and
sat down under his lamp to gaze
upon it. Yes. he could feel 1t there
in the bag. Before looking at it he
heoted himself como warm sorp

something lacking.
"We should have a barber chair"
he said.
The barber said that he would get

chair could be purchased secondhand.
It could be obtained at small cost.
"Splendid." said John Golden. "Buy

ties you BARRIERS use. We may as
we'll do this this right"
So the bottles were purchased, and
the chair was purchased, and they
were installed in the room off Mr..
Golden's office-the room where the
shower bath is-and there they stand
until this day.
On one occasion Mr.. Golden was
showing a friend his outfit. He was

him.

But in the outer room the young chap
had a secretary who believed in en-
phasizing his Importance. She did
not recognize the visitors name and,
when he asked that her employer be
told he was there, said firmly:
"What did you want to see him for?"

cooked. Any starchy substance needs
cooking to burst the starch cells and

The following is something new and
worth trying. Cook one-third Of

one teaspoonful of salt, one-fourth
teaspoonful of pepper and two cup
fuls of scalded milk in a double boiler
until the tapioca Is clear. Pour into

slices. Fry thinly sliced bacon until
crisp. Remove from the pan, dip the
tapioca slices in flour and fry until
golden brown. This is served with
