motor boat man. She had seen the
pantry woman, who was a com
paratively youthful person, so, she
figured. her nephew should be on
the callow side, and not too hfncult
when it came to wangling informa-
ton.
As soon as she reached the old
Leigh place, she told Aunt Mary
that she could take the rest of the
day off and go visit her daughter,
a young woman who was always
having a misery Of one sort or
another. Then when she had seen
Aunt Mary go waddling down the
path which led to a Negro settle
ment, Brenda hurried to the htch-
en- and prepared a picnic lunch. She
put this in a small hamper, got a
recent novel from the living room,
and some manuscript that needed
correcting from the room up In the
tower. With these she went down
the path which led to the river
bank some distance from the
house.
There she settled herself in a
sandy hollow-s sort Of small
beach overshadowed by Willows
and busted herself being lookout.
Although there was now a feel of
winter in the air, the sunlight which
touched the white sand was pleas
antly warm. Some insects made
honey little sounds now and then,
insects that we're staying on as
long as possible before seeking a
warmer climate.
She opened the novel and tried
TO read, keeping her ears cooked
for the sound OF a motor boat But
she had some difficulty in concen-
trating on either the book or the
sound, for she kept thinking about
Adam North. What was the matter
with the man anyway? He had
kissed her up in the tower room and
had apparently enjoyed it but
there had been no second romantic
scene. OF course Adam was busy,
had lot on his mind, as had every
one else. but that shouldn't keep
him from showing that he liked
her-if he really did.
II bothered her. And she again
recalled what that doctor had said
to her up in New York. THE trou-
BILE with you modern women Is
that competing with men in the
business world has gone to your

you-the little feminine charms,
the helplessness."

something like panic got hold Of
her. Not that she was frightened
for there wasn't anything TO be

but because she suddenly realized
that she hadn't really decided on a
way to attract the attention Of the
man in the boat
Then it happened! The bank on
which she was standing gave way
with lurch, and she flung out her
hands TO catch an overhanging
branch. There she chung. And even

fashion was far from comfortable.
"Help!" she yelled. Help"
The "putt-putting" was much
nearer now, and by twisting her
head about little she could see the
boat and the man at the wheel. He
was standing up, staring in her d.
rection.
"Help" she yelled again Save

Health .
BY DIR. Logan CIendening

RECENTLY the newspapers
~ carried a somewhat con-
fused and sensational story
about a new kind Of pneumonia
that is called cat pneumonia"
The story obtained It's point
from the supposition that the
disease is transmitted 10 human
beings from cats.
An instance is cited in which a
patient came down with an I'M
usual form of pneumonia after
nursing a sick cat, also one
where a healthy cat came down
with pneumonia after being
around a sick child.
This form Of pneumonia has
been named virus pneumonia and
has been known TO the medical
profession for several years.
II is not particularly different
from other forms of pneumonia
except that the germs which are
present in the other forms are
not found in the virus pneu-
monia cases.
IN ONE epidemic all the cases
l. occurred in infants secondary
10 whooping coughs and measles.
In another series of cases oc-
curing in adults, the disease was
characterized by rack king
cough, little or no sputum, high
fever and a slow pulse, x-ray
shadows which were out OF ell
proportion 10 what was found by
the stethoscope. and a prolonged
course terminating by slow fall
OF temperature.
The patients are left very
weak, but only about four deaths
have been reported to date.
In fact, only about one out of
10 patients becomes critically i'll,
+. most of them running a fairly
mild course.
IF THE cat transmission idea
L is correct. this will be the
second kind of pneumonia which
we have encountered in recent
years transmitted by pet ami
mails 10 human beings.
The first was psittacosis, or
parrot fever, which was preva-
lent several years ago and I'M
doubtedly was transmitted from
pet parrots who became sick
with nasal discharge, cough and
fever and transmitted the con-
dition 10 their owners who
fondled them too often in a
sympathetic attempt TO comfort
them.

antine on pet parrots and para
