CHAPTER ~

THEY sat in a st. Paul office,
l. Kerry Young, tall and brown
and trim in his woodsman's cloth
ing. At his feet was curled a Ches-
apeake retriever, brighter than the
prescribed dead grass in color: al
most honey-hued, he was.
A bit more than a decade had
passed since he had finally got
ten free of the town which had
warped and moulded his spirit.
This" said the man across the
desk, lis the finest report on a
timber property l have ever read.
It's great! I'm asking you again {.
won't you stick with US, Young?
There's big opportunity with this
corporation for man of your
years and ability"
Kerry smiled slowly.
Thine to move" he said in his
deep voice. I've been on this one
lob since October. It's July, now.
Tip and I"-with a nod toward the
d0g-"are little afraid of taking
root"

Woman Patron Buying Ham
Asks Butcher to Burger" 1t

He was just country butcher, but
he deals with a lot of city slickers
and he must be alert to see to it they
put nothing over on him. He was dis
cussing the suggestion that many of
the customers who come to him are
so dumb that he could sell them tripe
| for pOrterhouse steak. AS an exam
pie he explained that a woman came
into his shop and asked for pound
of ham. This he cut, and then to his
surprise the customer said, NOW
please burger it,"
The butcher did not grasp the re-
quest immediately, and then it
dawned upon him that the buyer
wanted meat for a hamburger steak.
Trying to explain the makings used
for hamburger, the woman became
very indignant. saying she knew
what she wanted.
! Not willing to accept his eXplana-
tion, he did the next best thing and
ran the slice of ham through the
chopper, wrapped 1t up, and the GUS
toner went away in contentment.
Her subsequent visits to the store
were friendly and the subject was
never mentioned.-New York Sun.

Girl ~ No man ever swung a
cudgel in that manner. :.
The man in the bow ducked,
threw out a hand, caught the oar
as it Dashed the gunwale and, with
a wrench, tore it free from the
girls grasp. He tossed it over
board. Then slowly, menacingly,
he went forward, raising a foot to
step over the thwart before him.
He stopped, then, and threw out
his arms for balance against the
sharp list of the boat. The girl
had dived!
"Oh-ho!" said Young sharply to
himself. "Tight fix, eh? Drop,
Tip!"
The dog, at his word, flattened
himself in the bottom. No time for
the carry, now.
The canoe nosed silently into the
first suck of swift current, Young's S
eyes sternly busy with the froth-
ing tumult below.
Fast and faster he moved, charg-
ing for that narrow channel,
Strengthening his canoe out as he
gathered speed, setting it parallel
with the rip. He swung sharply to
the right to miss one snag and
worked back into the sleek, black
slide which indicated the safety of
depths.
He went into a brawling rifle
next, with foam all about. and an
Cling across it, found deep water
again. j. q
Protruding rocks reared them
selves again. He decided in split
second that the way to the left
was the better.
He lifted his gaze for a flash of a
look at the boat below. 1t was,
so far as he could tell, empty. Who
ever the girl was, she had been
followed overheard by the man.
And now again Young was pad
ding desperately, great arms
sweeping with the precision and
regularity of some device of stout
metal, power driven. Beyond, the
current was actually uptilted,
banked, so abrupt was the deflec-
tion of those tons of rushing water.
He must clear the rock to his left,
must turn in time to avoid that
The Coolidge examiner., 1936-04-17

which would then lie close to his
right.
The chute now sped down mid
stream and he padded stoutly to
gain even more speed. He felt
himself dropping at break which
was all but cascade, swore once,
sharply and stoutly as he was
sucked into a welter of foam. A
Shiny nose of granite seemed to
reach through the lather for him
and he threw his weight to the left,
righted the frail craft just as water
| boiled over the rail and, canoe side
ways, turning still further until he
progressed backward, he shot into
the placid pool which marked the
foot of the rapid.
1t was over his shoulder, then,
| that he saw the two. Their boat
was drifting with the current, tur-
gid there for a space. On one side
| Of the skiff was the girl, supporting
| herself in the water by hands on
the gunwale; on the other was the
man, hatless. his face dark under
the sun.
They had not seen this approach
of a third They were so occupied
| that all else was excluded from at
| tention.
The man braced himself, pulled
his weight sharply upward, hooked
elbows over the rail and threw up
a foot to founder inbOard.
It was here that the girl, letting
go her hold with one hand as if for
the second time to attempt escape
by swimming. saw Kerry. He had
a flash of a white face, lovely In
contour and feature, but now
stamped with heavy fear.
For an instant the gaze from his
blue eyes locked with the girls
dark ones. Then he smiled. He
smiled and threw back his head
and let the smile run into a laugh.
Good afternOonw he said. 'Ts
the water fine?"
A bantering greeting, this, and
the words came through the last of
his laughter. But banter went out
of his heart and mirth from his
countenance as he looked from the
girl to the man, rising to stand
spreadlegged in the fiat bottomed
boat, arms hooked, clothing plas-
tered close to his great chest and
The man hair touched with
gray, now; heavier by many
pounds; his face lined and a bit
full at the chin-the man was Tod

For a long moment they stared
at one another. West breathed rap
idly. And after that first shock Of
recognition, with its surge of bitter

SYNOPSIS

Kerry Young, a lad of seven, is
orepared to flee the burning lumber
camp of his benefactor, Jack Snow,
who took the youngster to live with
him at the death of Kerry's mother.
Tod West has instructed Kerry to
come with a file containing the camps
funds should it be endangered.
Flames attack the office, and Kerry,
hugging the precious file, and Tod
race to town. Tod acts queerly. At
the bank the file is found empty and
Kerry is blamed with taking the
wrong one. Snow, his headquarters
and money gone, is ruined.

Criminal Native Sons.

D IGHT in the heart of Los An
IN geles the bones of perhaps our
first climate-bOoster have just been
dug up. If he lived $4,000 years ago
as some experts figure, that would
seem to make him an original ma
tive son, but if, as others think,
he only dates back 10000 years, he
was probably an early settler from
the Middle West who got begged
down in the primeval Ooze on his
way to an Iowa state picnic.
This certainly puts those uppity
Florida folks in their place. The
only thing they've dug up lately was
a canal. and they may have to put
that back. The celery growers don't
like it, and when you come between
a Florida celery grower and his eel
cry it's just the same as trying to
rob a tigress of her young.

New Spring Finery.

WHY do the new fashions al
w ways light on the wrong fe-
males, or vice versa, as the case
may be?
When white shoes prevailed the
lassies with the most robust feet
went to them unanimously, probably
because white shoe makes any
foot look bigger.
AS skirts climbed knee-high and
then on way uptown, twas the
maiden with the bow-legs who wore
hers the highest. She would.
The damsel who's kind of startled
looking anyhow just will pluck her
eyebrows. thereby enhancing the
suggestion of a skeered squinch owl
And now that bangs are coming
in-and coming dOwn-the style
won't be favored first by the young
girl who already resembles new
ly hatched robin and so could get
away with that sort of thing. It'll
be none other than the middle-aged
sister who is, as the poet says, kind
of horse-faced to start with. and
then all she'll need is floral horse
shoe around her neck to look like a
derby winner.
Were it not for the foolish things
men wear, we safely could say the
foolish things women wear are the
foolishest things anybody ever wore.

x-Ray Shows Up Appendix

Patients may sometimes wonder
why their physician recommends an
X-ray examination of the stomach
and intestine when the trouble Is
likely to be in just one or the 9th
er and not in both. They feel that
the physician should be able to 10
cate the trouble exactly and not put
them to the expense of the N-ray
examination, reasonable though it
may be.
AS a matter of fact, when there
is trouble in the abdomen, in aG-
dition to the X-ray of the stomach
and intestine, an X-ray eXamina-
ton of the gall bladder by means
of a dye and the Xray is really
what the physician would like to
have done to enable him to learn
more as to the cause of the Symp-
toms.

Onion Sold as a Lily Bulb
Legally in New York City

Az onion is a lily, not only boz
tanically but legally.
A seed merchant tells that some
time ago a bright young man loaded
a pushcart with crimson bulbs,
wheeled them to a New York ferry
station, and did a lively business
selling "allium cepa lilies" to home
going commuters, relates the Mil
waukee JOrnal.
Somebody had him arrested; said
he was peddling ordinary red onions.
He admitted that, but the judge dis
charged him. An allium cepa lily,
declared the court, is an onion.

Governor Hoffman's Motives.

L Y cusations of critics in his own
state, it's hard to believe New Jer-
sey's Governor Hoffman was actuat-
ed by political ambition in the
course he took in this CHASTITY

CHAPTER ll-Continued

I'm hittin' for the West" said
Tod. Coin clean to the Pacific
Coast"
But from their window that eve
ming Kerry saw Tod board an east
bound train.
That night old Jack grew worse.
The doctor came and gave him
some medicine, but he was rest
less, and frightened Kerry, the way
ne would sit up in bed and talk
wildly, and finally the boy, trying
60 sOothe him, crept close into the
arms and that seemed to bring
peace to the harried spirit.
After Jack was quiet, the boy
whispered:
1T amt so, what they're tellin',
Jack. | didn't take the wrong one,
unlest he told me wrong"
"Eh? What's that?" Jack asked.
He said it again and added !:
+'When he told me, he put his hand
right on it; right on the one on
top tn safe md said your money
was in it md to come a-runnin'
when he yeowled fer me-"
Old Jack was very silent.
"What else'd he do? After that,
what'd he do?"
And the boy related, in detail,
what Tod West had done how
he had gone down by the creek
and come back through the alders
as if wondering if anyone had seen
him. And of how he hadn't tried
to save the buildings that were
first in line of danger
Jack Snow swore a slow and ter,
rible oath, then.
''He could "a" he muttered "He
could "a done that. ND buried
it md dug it up since tn fire md
put tn bee on little feller. :"
Before morning he was much
worse and that day they took
Kerry away and before the week
was out he had no old Jack look
ing after him, nor would he ever
have, again. The Poor Commits
sioner was his boss, now, and was
boarding him out.
He could not hide the hurt Of old
Jacks passing, Of course. All he
could do was to hide himself in
the woods at the edge of town, in
the long grass of meadows where
he could lie on his face and cry
softly.
But that other thing: the hurt
which came when boys, with the
cruelty of their years, taunted him
with having sent Jack bust
why then, he found, he could cover
the pain with laughter. He found
both sanctuary and defense In
He tried to run away repeatedly,
when he was older. Always they
brought him back and made him
stay and kept him in school when
he hated the place and all the peO-
pie in it because they never forgot
what Tod West had told about him
and would not listen when, as a
little boy, he had tried to tell
what he and old Jack had suspect
ed. He did not persist in trying
TO broadcast this suspicion. Some
day, he'd get foot-loose; then they
could all go to the devil. Until
then he'd hide the things he really
felt behind laughter.

Dr Rarton more conservative
physicians it S
used cautiously and with a certain
degree Of fear. l myself used it in
several cases with satisfactory re
suits. However, in the last two
weeks l have seen two cases of rap
idly developing cataract in relative
ly young women and have had re-
ports of four similar cases."
Doctor Boardman then records
these cases:
The first case used dinitrophenol
for 20 months, reducing her weight
from 237 to 161 pounds. Within
one week after the dimness of the
eyes appeared only light and dark
could be distinguished.
The second case used dinitrophe-
mol for eight months, reducing her
weight from 217 pounds to 165. Din
itrOphenOl was discontinued for
eight months and the weight went
up to 1913 pounds. The drug was
given again for two months, when
an eye examination showed begin
ming catracts. Vision failed rapid
ly so that within a month there was
almost complete loss Of vision in
the right eye.
Other Cases Similar.
The third case used dinitrophe-
mol from time to time for eight
months with a satisfactory loss of
weight. However her vision be-
came dim and within 80 days had
progressed to almost complete
blindness and with fully developed
cataractS.
The fourth case had been TAX
ing dinitrophenOl without a physi-
clans supervision, for several
months. She also has shown rap
idly developing cataracts.
Doctor Boardman comments as
follows:
LAS the occurrence Of cataract at
this age is extremely rare and the
one common factor in all four cases
has been the use of dinitrophenOl, it
would certainly seem that until the
question of the relationship be-
tween the dinitrophenol and the
rapidly developing cataracts In
young women is settled, the drug
should not be used"
In the same issue of the Journal
of the American Medical Associa-
tion, Drs. Warren d. Horner, Rich
ard Barr Jones, and w. w. Board
man, San Francisco, report three
cases of cataracts following the use
of dinitrophenOl. The cases were
women aged, fifty, thirty-seven, anu
forty respectively.
They report that the age of the
patients and the absence Of any
other cause suggest dinitrophenol
as the cause of the formation of
the cataracts and loss Of vision.
Advise Discontinuance.
"Under the circumstances, fur
ther use of dinitrOphenOl should be
discontinued pending further study
of it's effects upon the body, aside
from the reducing Of weight"
Now, the above information and
comments do not mean that DIM.
trophenOl passes out of the picture
as a weight reducer. AS the Jour
nal quite properly states that as
dinitrophenOl has not been stand
ardized some of it may contain i'm
purities. Also the cataracts may
have resulted from an unbalanced
diet which often occurs when the
food intake is reduced greatly.
Thus it has not been established
whether the cataracts occurred be-
cause of the dinitrophenOl or be-
cause of some other undetected
cause.
