was now.
When she hadn't been able TO de-
eide whether to take the woodsy
green or the cinnamon tweed suit
Pamela said. why don't you take
both, Barb"
No, Pamela had no idea what II
was like TO have to economic, TO
live within budget.
The trend Of this thought led to
one that she had been thinking Of
lot lately. 1t was that there was
something the matter with Tony.
He was not the old sometimes care
free Tony at all. Barbara was quite
sure she knew now why he was not.
The evidences Of Pamelas wealth,
everywhere apparent, during those
times the four OF them had been
together at Stormwold, must have
frightened Tony away from his in
tention to tell Pamela Of his feeling
for her.
Barbara wished that she were
the kind OF girl who could ask
Pamela how she felt about Tony.
But that was sheer stupidity on her
part; II was obvious how Pam felt
about him. Why was Tony such a
blind boy that he couldn't see It?
Poor little Pam, eating her heart

up! Dress and go down and keep
him company while I make myself

Barbara was glowing, all traces
OF fatigue washed away in the re-
freshing bath.
She dressed carefully in the
woodsy green tweed suit she had
finally decided upon. It had short,
pleated skirt and a smart little
Jacket topped with a big collar Of
badger fur. Pam had selected the
wicked sort Of Robin Hood cap OF

impertinent pheasant feather. IL

Tom Kilcran was waiting In the
foyer near the elevator when she
stepped out.
She thought he looked tired and
older than usual, and was cheered
at-the thought that he was going
TO Maine for fortnights holiday.
He said, This is great luck, Bar
bara, for me to have two pretty
girls to cheer me up"
What cheering up DO you
need ?" she asked gayly.
Don't you feel low when your
plans are changed"
'They aren't very often. What's
happened to yours? You're leaving
at midnight for Maine, aren't

He said. NO" His voice did not
invite comment.
She said, Pam Is getting dressed

He was asking her IL Pamela
had run him into bankruptcy when
that young lady appeared in a new
suit that would have done some
think like that to Tony's income.
Pam said. Cocktail lounge at

Bread and milk for you and a

age should have, but I'll make an
exception for you tonight. Where's

forced note Of gaiety in his voice.
Barbara thought.
The Flamingo was gay and Il
Vas a new experience for Bar
bara. Her champagne cocktail gave
her wrists and ankles a singing
feeling and the colored balloons
grouped against the black walls OF
the club, the subdued lights, the
tinkling music and laughter made
her feel very gala.
Tom had ordered second cock

There's place where we car

feeling a little dizzy from the
whirlwind revelation Of Pamela's
princely shopping. She. said, Oar

What do we want a room for ?"

Half an hour later, letting the
exquisite comfort Of perfumed,
steaming water soak through her
skin into her very soul, Barbara
reflected on the luxurious delights
a fat purse makes possible. Not
that she could ever bring herself

II took a lordly point Of view to
spend money as Pamela did. Bar

found she still thought it a breath

wooden socks that cost as much as

Far from having imposed it upon
q reluctant sultan, our diplomatic
corps didn't like it. II involved lot
Of work and was a nuisance 10 'em.
Nevertheless, they had It to bother
with. The Turks wouldn't take it
of our hands.
The Ottoman Empire wasn't so
bad, to be sure, because we weren't
sufficiently numerous there to be a
serious pest. Along the Chinese
coast, though, our traders were
thick, and we had to keep order
among EN-. And at our own eX-
pense, mind you. That was the
beauty Of it, from the extra-terri-
torialized folks standpoint.
FnVoy's Headache
Constantinople was the Turks
capital in those days. Now it's
changed Its name to Istanbul and
the governmental headquarters has
moved to Ankara. But that's i'm
material.
To me eXtra-territoriality was a
new thing at the time, but I soon
learned that l wasn't responsible,

secretary alongside the Bosporus,
that I killed man. What would
happen?"
IF you killed Turk" said
Louis, Il presume it would result
In diplomatic complications, but il
you killed nobody but an Ameri-
can, it would be up to the embassy
TO tend to you. We'd try you, and
if We decided you needed to be exc
cuted, that also would be our own
funeral; yours likewise"
But, as previously remarked, our
American population in Turkey
was trihng; too small 10 worry our
representatives there. Our embassy
and consulate kept matters in
hand quite efficiently.
The idea is that these Orientals
initially didn't care a cents worth
tor our western presence among
'em. They were willing to let us
come ashore and set UP housekeep-
ing. but not to accept any respon-

rather severe winter and good

If we were going 10 have it pretty
cold inside and it probably won't
impose much Of a hardship TO in
duce the children 10 go outside, no
matter what the weather is. espe-
eially on sunny days.
These warnings are timely just
now because right at the present
moment is the time TO prevent the
possibility of the occurrence of
that children's disease, ricketts,.
Practically all cases Of ricketts, oc-
cur in children and the seasonal
incidence of ricketts, is highest in
late March and early April; new
eases rarely develop after June.
Lack of vitamin d
In other words, ricketts, appears
at the end of winter period and
is due partly to lack of exposure
TO sunlight. OF course, strictly
speaking, ricketts, is due to lack of
vitamin d in the food, but the
body has a way Of manufacturing
vitamin D by the exposure of the
skin to sunlight, and probably this
is the best and most economical
way of obtaining it.
Our scientific knowledge Of rick
cts is of fairly recent date, al
though it has been known as the
scourge of childhood for many
years. There was a sudden marked
increase in the incidence of ricketts,
in the 18th century which led to
the first description of the condi-
ton 10 Francis Gibson in 1860.
Possibly this increase was due to
q succession Of severe, sunless
winters.
Forty years ago ricketts, was one
81 the most frequent of childhood
diseases and children's hospitals
were fun Of cases. Two theories
were advanced for the cause of
ricketts,: one was confinement and
the other was faulty diet. But it
was not until 1917 that McCollum
and Simmonds proved by animal
experiments that the lack of foods
containing vitamin D was the ac-
tual cause of the disease.
Process Of Formation
vitamin D is fat-soluble and 10
found in fat foods. 1t is especially
abundant in the fish liver oils such
as cod liver oil and halibyt liver
oil. 1t rs also found in all animal
liver when the animals have been
sufficiently exposed to sunlight.
The process of formation of vita
min D in the body is that the sun
light produces vitamin D in the
skin and it is stored in the liver.
The baby should have cod liver
oil or some substitute, such as
viosterol or irradiated milk, and
sunlight in abundance during the
months of January, February and
March. 1t is well worth all the
effort and expense because ricketts,,
once established, leaves deformi-
ties in the long bones, ribs and
skull which can never be overcome.
1t is estimated that in northern
countries, including England, so
per cent Of the children show some
signs Of once having had ricketts,,
and studies made in New York
City show that it is not far behind
in this percentage.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Mrs. R.: Is there anything be-
sides an operation or glasses for
cross eyes?
Answer: I do not believe exer-
eises are capable Of improving
cross eyes in any but the mildest
cases. 1t does much more harm 10
temporize with exercises than It
Goes TO have an operation, because
the badly squinted eye may 20
blind unless operated early.
