of the studded cart wheels be-
yond the compound wall.
1t was this familiar sound
belonging to his work that
awakened Stephen. When he
discovered Hester lying at the
edge of the bed, her violin on
a chair beside her, in a flash
of intuition he envisioned her
night vigil and knew that she
would not want him to know.
Very gently, so as not to dis
turb her, he drew her to him;
she did not waken.
Holding her, there came to
him again, as on the train, the
realization of how delicately
she was made. Here in this
room where he had dreamed of
Lucy, his passion for the frail
and small on whom he could
lavish care broke up the cold
ness around his heart. Hester
should be his child to guard.
Then new conception of Hes
ter came to him-HeSter, not
merely an object of his atten-
ton but distinct personality,
a mysterious lovely personality
that he did not know. What
did music mean to Hester? He
wished he were musical. Could
he give her what she needed?
CHAPTER 7.
The afternoon following their
arrival, Stephen brought Jim
home with him. Jim had not
wanted to accept the invitation,
but knowing that he'd have to
meet Stephens wife some time,
he decided that he might as we'll
get it over with. He supposed
that Steve had picked up some
poor sort of creature in Japan,
and that he would have to pre-.
tend otherwise. He had thought
Stephen was going to do the
natural thing in marriage, which
so few did. But Galahad, like
the rest, was running true to
eastern form. He'd married in
a hurry, and would repent at his
leisure. He wished now he
hadn't made it so easy for Steve
to marry.
Hester rose to welcome them.

himself! She lifts her head like
a pedigreed filly. She'll make
the goal or drop in her tracks"
So thought Jim, the ardent
lover of beautiful horses and
beautiful women. well, I'll
have to hand it to Steve. He
certainly has good taste" He
asked Hester what she thought
of the town.

He saw he'd get no complaint
from her -. Were a gay little

RUSH TO AID OF
SHIP ADRIFT IN
PACIFIC STORM
No Immediate Danger, Says
Captain of Crippled
Schooner.

BB United PTesS
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1.-THE
schooner Seth Parker, adrift in a
hurricane in the South Pacific, is
lin no immediate danger" Phillips
Lord, her commander, reported by
wireless today.
Mr.. Lord sent his report to H.
M. S. Australia, the British warship
racing 70 the rescue. The United
States Navy tug Ontario was pre-
pairing at the Pagopago naval base,
Samoa, to join in the rescue race.
Capable of 81 knots at top speed,
the Australia was reported making
20 knots in storm conditions. 1t
was estimated she could reach the
schooner tonight.
Rigging Torn Away
The governor of the American
naval base at Samoa offered his
only ship to Mr.. Lord when the lat
ter reported that his rigging had
been torn away and his wooden
four masted boat was leaking.
Meanwhile naval weather reports
indicated q storm of great intensity
was sweeping the area in which Mr..
Lords ship apparently was drifting
helplessly.
The wind velocity was rs miles an
hour and the barometer was drop
ping. The temperature in the usu-
ally mild South Seas was falling.
At the time of the report it was ~,
a drop of 10 degrees within a few
hours.
Second Rescue Trip
Unless he is forced to abandon
ship, Mr.. Lord will seek a tow to
Tutu.la from the navy boat which
is first to find him.
Radio messages intercepted here
indicated most of the crew of IA
aboard the Seth Parker were col
lege men, who joined the entertainer
in New York and New England for
cruise around the world.
The Australia is making her Sec
ond trip to the side of the schooner.
Late Saturday the warship found
the Seth Parker unchanged and
apparently not needing assistance
after racing $50 miles off her course
to stand by as Mr.. Lord had re-
quested.

Your Health
= BY DR.. MORRIS FISHBEIN =

A WAY back in 1929 there appeared one Sylvester
L Graham, who had a system u diet involving
elimination of meat sauces, tea coffee, alcohol
pepper, and mustard, and who insisted that to be
healthful one ought to eat lots of vegetables whole
wheat bread fruits, nuts and salt, and drink pure
water.
This is the same Graham who is responsible for
giving us graham crackers and graham bread.
About 1892 appeared Alexander Haig with the idea
that uric acid factor in the causation of dis
case. This Haig argued that uric acid comes from
eating meat, that it accumuateS in the blood and
that as result meat eaters are unhealthy.
The diseases which Haig particularly associated
with uric acid were high blood pressure rheumatism,
govt, diabetes and Brights disease, but he did not
hesitate to include we'll headache, epilepsy mental
depression and anemia
1t took about 20 years for medicine to prove with
more than fair degree of certainty that the uric
acid by hypothesis was without scientific foundation.
WET there continue to be sold considerable
number of patent medicines based on the uric
Using literature that the real value of these patent
medicines is to clear the uric acid out of his body.
Now you need not be afraid of uric acid in your
body. Chemical studies of the blood show that this
acid is increased in the blood when there is an
abundant amount of meat in the diet, but uric acid
also is present when meat is not eaten
Even more certain than this, careful studies of
the tissues fail to reveal that the uric acid is in
way associated with the forms of Inflammation which
appear in rheumatism and Bright's disease. More
over plenty of people with high blood pressure have
never touched meat
Lest it be thought that these articles are designed
in any way to boost the sale of meat, may l say
at this point that only moderate amounts of meat
are necessary in any well-balanced diet.
The diets that have been developed by nutrition
experts who are trying to work out a minimum
essential diet for those relief, include meat on
only two days of the week.
