CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
GUN AND Tommy arose and
strolled casually into the bunga-
low, lighting cigarets and appar-
emily talking trivialities, turning in
at the door just as the man who
called himself Trent reached the
gate, and paused for a word with
the sentry.
Can I come in" called Trent, a
moment later, just as they had sat
downtown in an armchair. Tom
my perched on the table.
1t was Tommy who answered.
"Of coursew he called, and then,
as Trent entered, he went on:
Question for question. Can you
come in? Yes! Can we get OUT?"
The other smiled depricatingly.
The answer. I'm afraid. is no
for the time being, at any rate!"
Il see! And-why not?"
"Well-let us say that it might
not be convenient, for either of us,
if you did! May 1 sit down."
"Of counsel" said Gun. Have
one of your own cigarets?"
He pushed the box across. Unob-
trustively, he was studying Trent's
face and manner, and could see
that he was annoyed, but was try
ing to hide it. Gun guessed the rea-
son, and the mans next words
proved him correct.
by the way" he addressed
Tommy. That plane of yours"
well, what about it," Tommy's
manner was tinged with aggres-
siveness.
"Just this. You were supposed to
be up the other night on an eX-
detrimental flight with new
plane"
"Well?"
Apart from the rather peculiar
shape of wings and fuselage, can't
find anything strange or new about
the plane. That's ALL"
Tommy grinned, with impish de-
light.
THAT IS all! Because there isn't
anything new or different"
Then why?"
Gun was cursing silently. 1t
looked as though Tommy was 60
ing to give the game away-and
then the fellow would at once sus-
pect that they had INTENDED to
be kidnaped!e But Tommy rose
nobly to the occasion.
"You see," he said, with genial
ity, 81 wasn't quite born yester-
day! When we took the air the Sec
ond time, after you, and I found
you'd been fooling with the instru-
ments, I guessed something was
wrong. SO l just quietly heaved the
little attachment I was expert
menting with overboard! T thought
perhaps you would have seen it
go!"
1.-THE hell you did" Trent was
definitely showing signs OF tenn
per now. IF I HAD seen it. {.
Well, that doesn't matter now, I
suppose" He was obviously getting
control of himself.
Before he could speak again,
Tommy broke in:
Look here" he said bluntly.
Lets, get right down to brass
lacks. In the first place, what am
I to call you? take it your name
is not Trent ?"
The other smiled.
"On the other hand, perhaps it
IS! Anyway, it will do as we'll as
any other name, I expect"

Q DOES THE appendix ever
cause pain by having a spasm?
Long ago when appendicitis was
a new word the theory was widely
held that the symptoms were due
to a grape seed that had entered
the appendix. When eating grapes
we were admonished not to swal-
low the seeds-an extremely un-
popular piece of advice, because ii
you extract the seeds of a grape
while the grape is in your mouth
the result is a bitter taste which
entirely spoils the pleasure of
grape-eatings A more enlightened

An Old One Pops Up Under New Name

they are causing trouble - that
they harbor actual infection. We
are glad this week to see an artl-
Gle by DR.. Louis I. Grossman, OF
Philadelphia, which supports this
point Of view. Referring to pulp
less teeth, DR.. Grossman says that
the danger of the pulpless tooth
as a source of infection can no
longer be held valid. Fifteen or
twenty years ago." he writes, in
the heyday Of the theory of focal
infection, physicians were order
ing patients to have their teeth
removed for almost every kind
of obscure complaint" Pulpless
teeth were almost routinely re-
moved. A pulpless tooth is not a
dead tooth. It still has vital rela-
tionships with surrounding It's
sues. Clinical evidence shows that
many people with pulpless teeth
have no apparent systemic in
volvement."
I like two definitions I saw in
an article in medical magazine
lately. depression divides the
personality: cheerfulness unites
it." And-"Manic patients think
of conquest, the depressed think OF
inquest" That seems to me to
sum up the object of modern psy-
chotherapy and also, incidentally
it explains the war.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
M. E. Mil would like to
know what the blood pressure of
8 woman 80 years old should be. !
suffer with severe headaches and
wondered if it could be coming
from high blood pressure.
Answer-Blood pressure is sys-
tolic, which means when the heart
is in contraction, and diastolic
when the heart is relaxed. So
there is a variation in blood pres.
sure seventy-two times minute.
Normally at 39-years of age the
systolic Should be from ITO to lao,
and the diastolic 60 to 80. These
variations occur in different per-
fectly normal individuals. High
blood pressure undoubtedly causes
a quite characteristic form Of
headache.

opinion later absolved grape seeds
of the responsibility of causing
appendicitis and pointed out that
what the surgeons had been find
ing inside the appendices were not
grape seeds but tiny intestinal
stones. So grape-eating was re,
sumed in the more civilized and
only proper method of swallowing
the grape entire.
A Beautiful Theory
This ancient theory has now
raised its head again under a new
name appendiclausis. 1t means,
so we are told, a pain or spasm,
Stimulating acute appendicitis, but
caused not by appendicitis but by
an obstruction to the appendix.
The muscular layer of the appen-
dix attempts to overcome this OBJ
struction and causes the cramp-
ing, The only trouble with this
beautiful theory, which is GER
tainly destined to be a great boon
to amateur surgeons, is that the
appendix has practically no mus
cles at all. True the textbooks
show a muscular layer in the wall
of the appendix, but this inclusion
is due more to haste and habit
than to real study. Maxinow, in
his textbook on histology, says,
"The muscular ring of the appen-
dix is poorly developed" Appendix
clausis, in our. opinion, is rather
like the conception of chronic ap-

 Dlugosz' method is based on the principle, that when baked, clay supports itself. First, the steel worker-artist builds up the form of d head Or bust. Then he rolls long strips of clay between his palms, and places the strips on the form to create facial features. By means of these strips, which he terms forces, ' Dlugosz depicts the agony of Christ on the Cross, the worn expression of a laboring steel worker or the pugnacious determination of foot ball halfback bucking the line.
