but the knowledge did not remove
his blush. He had wanted to join
the people and swim with them.
Now, he wanted to get away. There
were several canoes lying bottom
up on a slide beside the dock. Aggie

and no more.
They all watched him. They
couldn't take their eyes away. His
appearance was dramatic, very
nearly appalling, in view of their
previous ideas about him. He
turned the canoe over and slid it
into the water. He picked up pad

him out of earshot and twenty out

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Aggie left the house few MIN
utes later. He carried his bathing |
suit-not just trunks, but jersey |
also-in q waterproof satchel. The |
men and women of Indian Stones
had adopted tropical winter fash |
ions for summer wear: shorts of a
Tahitian pattern for the former,
and for the latter, quite similar
shorts, and bras. They wore slack
suits in the daytime; at night the
men had commenced to try dinner
jackets in a variety of pastel colors.
This conventionality of unconven-
ton was one which Aggie did not
remotely understand. He was
dressed then, as always, primarily
for comfort.
His appearance at the boathouse
was thus another occasion for mirth
at his expense. He came down the
tree-roofed road, bobbling con-
tentedly, in worn moccasins, khaki
trousers, a faded blue jumper-shirt,
and a pith helmet-the last because
of the hot sunshine. Less for jaunti-
ness than from a long-standing field
habit, he. wore a scarlet bandanna
around his neck. All this, taken to-
gether with his beard, his flashing
black eyes, and his knee-bent, for
ward-leaning gait, made him look
outlandish.
Beth, who caught sight Of him
first, struck the precise note when
she called, Or. Livingstone, l pre-
sume7"
People lying on the dock on air
mattresses, people floating on them
in the water, people on the imported
sand, and in boats, looked at Aggie
and broke into laughter. The re-
cent nervous strain they'd under
gone made that laughter unduly
vehement. Aggie turned red to the
roots Of his hair. He pushed ahead,
as if against tangible resistance,
through the crowd and into the
Plum family locker. He undressed.
With a grimace Of determination
he decided 70 eschew the jersey. He
came out in blue trunks.

Alkaline Substances
in Diets Often Used
10 Treat Ulcers

BY Il. \. BUNDESEN. NJ. D.
MORE and more We hear Of peo-
pie who have ulcers, and al
though the exact cause Of ulcer Of
the stomach and first part of the
bowel is not known, it is possible
10 treat this disorder satisfactorily
by the use of diets and, often. by
the giving of alkaline substances,
such as baking soda, of course al
ways under the doctors direction.
There are some authorities who
believe that ulcers may arise be-
cause of infections.
Others think that perhaps some
nervous disturbance is responsible.
In any event, there are certain
persons who seem prone to develop
ulcers. These individuals are high
strung and nervous.
Experiments have been carried
out in the past which seem to show
that caffeine is capable of produc-
ing ulcers in the stomachs of ami
mails. Nevertheless, it has not been
proven that it is a good thing TO
suppress altogether the use Of bev-
erages containing caffeine in a
person who has ulcers.
Doctors James A. Roth al ] An
drew c. Ivy of the Northwestern
Medical School have recently done
further experiments with animals
to determine the effects of caffeine
on the stomach. They made mix
ture containing caffeine in a solu-
ton of beeswax and mineral oil.
The animals were given injections
of this mixture into a vein daily.
1t was found that half Of these ami
mails developed bleeding ulcer in
the stomach. In a number Of the
animals more than one ulcer
formed. On examination OF the
stomach, it was found that black
brown material was present which
evidently contained blood, and
there were numerous bleeding
points in the lining membrane Of
the stomach around the ulcer. In
some Of the animals a reddish
brown fluid was found in the first
part Of the intestine.
II would appear from these
studies that the excessive use of
Misunderstanding beverages
might thus play a role in the for
nation of ulcers of the stomach
and of the bowel in human beings.
It has also been noted that when
caffeine-containing beverages are
taken by mouth, the amount Of Sc
cretions formed in the stomach in
creases.
For this reason, it is the opinion
OF these physicians that it may be
a good plan to restrict the use of
Misunderstanding beverages in
persons who have ulcers or who
may have a tendency to develop
them. This does not mean, of
course, that such beverages would
cause ulcers in all persons. There
are many who find these beverages
quite satisfactory. OF course, the
physician will decide in those in
stances in which caffeine-contain-
ing beverages should not be en-
ployed.
