EsLimos Are Susceptible to Ailments;
Medical Services Now Check Disease

Although healthy and organical-
ly sound race, Eskimos are serious
ly susceptible to ailments which or
dinarily cause white people only
minor discomfort. Before the COM
ing of the white man, says London
Tit-Bits Magazine, they knew moth
ing of such ills as colds. influenza,
and other kindred ailments, and
there had been no need for their
bodies to build up resistance to
the attack of these diseases. Con-
sequently the arrival of the first
whaling and trading vessels each
season was followed by widespread
outbreaks among the natives, often
with disastrous effects.
Today the medical services in the
Far North take particular care upon
the arrival of vessels to check the
spread of these diseases. Modern
hygiene has been contributing fac
tor to the physical well-being of the
natives, and by instructions about
proper diets doctors have reduced
considerably the number of deaths
from dietary causes. A most strik-i
ing success has been made in the
correction of methods of feeding in
fants and older children, with the
result that happy-faced, vigorous
children now form considerable
portion Of the population.

Much Water to Grow Sugar

As about 1900 tons of water are
required to grow one ton of sugar,
some of the cane fields in the less
rainy sections of the Hawaiian is
lands are obliged to maintain ex-
tensive and costly irrigation sys-
TENS, says Golfers Weekly. One of
these sugar-cane plantations uses,
throughout the summer, about half
as much water as is consumed, dur
ing the same period, in the city Of

dows gave it a pleasing look, and
the front door possessed certain
dignity; but there was one of those
denominations known as cupola on
top! Indeed, his namesake, seeing
that this unexpected caller was
pausing for a view of the Swell
house," came back to point out the
cupola with pride.
"That's our watch towerl We can
see the enemy approaching for miles
and miles. Did you notice the win
dows? Daddy and us boys are crazy
about the colors. Come on in" And
as James followed him: "This is
a gorgeous room, isn't it? Mr.. Little
field says it's miles too big; but we
don't think so. You see, it's the
ball ROOM"
"Indeed?" responded James. mo,
it's not too big, and as you say,
sonny, it's-gorgeous."
1t was; yet looking about him Gu
riously, James Lambert pondered
on what made it so. The place was
shabby enough in way. The build
ers' paper with which the walls were
covered, was stained in places. A
big chair needed upholstering. But
on the wall opposite was rug that
would have done honor to a Rajah's
palace James went forward, touch
ing the beautiful thing with reverent
fingers.
"We picked that up in Persia"
said the little boy.
His grandfather smiled at the odd
ly old remark.
"You did,"
"Well, I didn't, 'zactly. I've never
been there. 1t was Daddy found it;

happier. No one would sell magic

CHAPTER XIV

So Nora's father was left alone in
her shining palace" He stood by
the fire, letting his eyes roam slowly
around the "ball room" It was an
unusual room, a room Of extraordi-
nary beauty; yet James had never
seen anything just like its curious
blending of poverty and riches.
In one corner stood a baby-grand
piano. He was glad that Nora had
kept up her music, but-a baby

about it; but remember one
thing!"
"What was that?" James asked
as the child looked up in expecta-
ton of the question.
"It was next morning. A lady
came and told us boys that Mother
wanted us. We jumped right up and
ran into her and Daddy's room and

ga baby! We thought Santa Claus
was going to bring her, but she
couldn't wait for him. 1t was my
little sister Iris!"
"Iris!"
At something in the old mans
voice his grandson glanced up, puz-
zled.
"Yep. It was my grandma's
name. It's the name of flower
too; and Daddy says my little sis
ter's more like a flower than any,
thing he ever saw, 'cept Mother.
But we boys don't think Mothers
one bit like a flower. She's too
useful"
"Well!" said James. The Nora
he remembered might have been
likened to a flower, but she surely
wasn't useful.
"Don't you think Iris is a pretty
manner" queried the little boy.

He had to force himself back to
the present as the boy said happily:

thudding unaccountably. Isis she

"Nope. mean no, sir. She's way

For a moment James was filed
with sense of horror. Confined to

found life in an Office sitting! It
was unthinkablel They had reached
the house, and feeling suddenly very
old and very tired, he said: "Tll
