She slipped out, thankful that
she had missed seeing Peter and
avoided his possible questioning
thereby; feeling at the same time
lonely and dissatisfied too.
When she got back to her

saw that some packages had

fuse to turn over everything to
them. They can't think that now.
They'll deduce, by my having di-
vorced you, that I've simply run
off and deserted you, now that
you're in trouble"
Candace guessed that her ac-
ton had really been q relief to
Bruce. He had managed after
ward, by dint Of turning over
life insurance and ell other
available funds, to satisfy all of
his creditors; he had come out
of the thing with honor, if with
nothing else.
Father and son were alike as
two peas in q pod, Candace
thought with impatient admira-
ton, Bruce giving up everything
# the sake Of q scruple, Peter
Shaving for no money and but
little thanks. Impractical ideal
lists, both of them. They needed
someone to take care of them.
Maybe this girl Peter was mar
rying would be the one to do it.
An uneasy thought struck her.
Bruce was happy here, she
knew, he felt himself to be need
ed and useful. What if this
strange girl were to find him in
the way? She knew that Peter
himself looked on his fathers
stroke in the nature of q bless

use of to pry Bruce loose from d
hopeless situation, losing fight
against insurmountable odds;
but what if his wife were to re-

ask at the first opportunity,

her?" Casually. AS though it
didn't matter.
Now, she found, she could
not. She was afraid that she
might somehow convey her un-
easiness to Bruce; and she didn't
want to be the one to make him
feel insecure, possibly unwanted.
She became anxious to leave
before she herself might some
how blunder into the subject, or
Bruce could bring it up. AS soon
after lunch as she decently could
she said briskly, II can't wait
around any longer on the chance
Of seeing Peter, IN afraid. I
have an awful lot to do"
He'll be disappointed he
missed you," Bruce said. Lord
knows you get over here seldom
enough. Can't you run in some
evening this week."
Candace said, with a fine SIM

that I'm going away! With the

That's fine for you, child,
Truce said heartily; but she
could see that he was puzzled by
her secretiveness. you'll GER

UNCLE BRUCE AGAIN
CHAPTER XIII

She found herself reluctant to
see Peter and his father before
she left. Peter had a trick, born
probably of long association and
understanding, of seeing through
her; and she had a feeling that
this Harper affair would not
bear too much in spection,
would not make her appear to
advantage in his eyes.
She would make no mention
of anything but the old lady, OF
course. and would trust to luck
that he had never heard of the
grandson or would attach no sig
nificance to his going along with
them II he had; but she would
have preferred not to have to
say anything of 1t at all.
She rode a bus over to the
modest little flat on Henley
street with the neat sign in its
front window, PETER FRAZIER
M. d., where Bruce now lived
with Peter. After she rang the
bell she could hear Bruce's foot
fall, first a firm step and then a
dragging one that was the after
math of the recent stroke that
had partly paralyzed his left
side.
Bruce opened the door wide.
"Well, stranger!" he said, giving
her a quick hung. where have
you been keeping YOURSELF"

said, smiling. She followed her

he said. He looked worried but

Two scourages which terrified our
grandparents can now be completely
wiped off the slate.
They haven't disappeared, yet, but
that is because so many people are
| careless, or ignorant, or both. just as
soon as every child is properly pro-
tected by simple, modern methods
they will be as dead in Minnesota as
| the dodo.
The advisability of immunization
against diphtheria and vaccination
| against small poX is an old story. But
it has to be re-told because there are
still thousands of Minnesota young
sters who have not had either yet
They enjoy some protection so long
as other thousands do take advantage
of the preventives and thus cut down
the amount of infection that is going
the rounds. But this protection is only
relative. So long as one carrier re-
mains and there are unimmunized
children and unvaccinated children
and adults, new and virulent epi-
demic may be in the making. Perhaps
next month or next year an epidemic
of small pox as deadly as the out
break of 1924 and 25 may appear, or a
dangerous rise in diphtheria in much
more menacing form than it has ap-
peared in the last decade.
Wartime has always been accom-
panied by disease scourages as people
become hard-pressed and careless. But
there are two risks that can be elmi-
mated. We can see that all adults and
children have been vaccinated against
small pox within the last five years
and that all children, especially, are
immunized against diphtheria.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
M. O.-What is spastic constipation
and what diet is best for it?
Ans.-Spastic constipation, so-called
is due to nervous and emotional strain
and is fortunately more annoying than
serious. The only solution is to keep
ones mind off of ones colon and, if
possible, eliminate the cause of mental
strain and anxiety. Persons with
spastic constipation are quite likely to
start eating bran and other bulky
foods and thus make their condition
worse. Usually what they need is a
smooth diet, high in fats and in
foods that leave little or no residue
such as meats, cheese, refined cereals
and milk.
Mrs. r. My little girl has q
| habit of blinking her eyes. and ii is
becoming worse. What is the cause?,
Ans.-Blinking the eyes may be
solely a bad habit or it may be a
symptom of nervous disease or of eye
,, disease. A doctor would have to de-
eide after examination. If it is only
habit, it will probably disappear if ig-
nored. Constant reminders will not
help.

| when your Chlld Must Stay In Bed.
Have you ever been tempted to let
convalescent child get UP and run
about before it is safe for him to do
so, because it is so hard to keep him
in bed? OF course a sick child's
mother cannot be with him all the
time, nor would it be good for him TO
! become dependent on her Occupa-
tlonS can be provided that will keep
children absorbed and happy for long
stretches, without taxing them. Pic
lures hung on a screen or at the foot
of the bed may be changed often, so
that there is something new to look
at. Old magazines can be used in many
WayS-an older child likes to clip and
send away coupons, a younger one
enjoys cutting out the pictures, or
coloring them and making scrap
book or using the fashion plates for
paper dolls. Puzzles are good if they
are simple. Crayons, paints, plasticene
and plastic wood can be used. if an
old sheet or piece of oilcloth is spread
over the bed. Little children love 10
deck themselves out in another's dis
carded beads and bracelets, or make
multi-colored ones of salt and flour
paste, with vegetable coloring. The
family button-box provides fun for an
imaginative child A mail-order cat
alogue lends itself to any number of
uses.
II child's bed can be placed near
window, the passing cars and people
make him feel less alone Moving q
child for part of the day to another
room than the one he has become
tired of will cheer him up. Company,
in the shape of goldfish, a canary, or
a new stuffed animal, will make him
feel less lonely.
A convaleScent child should be care
fully guarded from over excitement,
consequently the use of the radio must
be closely watched and the type of
program controlled. A phonograph has
the advantage that, once suitable
records have been chosen by the
mother, the child can play them at
will. A harmonica, castanetS, bells,
and other simple musical instruments
give a child the fun of producing his
own music.
Many an older child has learned to
knit or crochet while in bed, and has
whiled away hours making something
for her doll. An older boy may find
pleasure in making model airplane,
in sorting and labelling a collection
he has made, or in passing the snap
shots reminiscent of summer out
ing into scrap-book.
There are times when playthings
