OBESITY
,Fat does no work. On the con
trary, it Is a drag on the human
machine. This has been shown In
a number of ingenious studies of
the basal metabolic rates in obese
perspns.
To understand the nature of these
studies it Is necessary to appreciate
the meaning of. basal metabolism.
Metabolism is the process of chem
ical changes In the body's cells by
which ehergy la provided.
One can Judge fire by its smoke,
and ono can measure the burning
processes that go on within the body
by the rate at which oxygen Is con
sumed and carboh. dioxide Is given
off through the lungs.
Tho actual measuring ' of the
metabolism of the "body Is a com-
i plicated affair, but in substance, it
consists in having a nerson. who is1
at rest, breathe for a number of
minutes under a mask placed over

Amy must have had certain duties
as a hostess, for she slipped away
from Rock and mingled with the
laughing, curious assemblage. He
made no effort to follow. . '
Hock remained at the entrance to
tho patiq, and was Btandlng close
to the wall, when a small party en
tered the corridor and came quick
ly dowii. Thero appeared to bo half
a dozen youths In nondescript mas
querade, and several girls, two. of
whom, attired In white, stood but
promlnently
"Look!" spoke up a woman to her
neighbor on a bench near Rock.
"That girl in white. Colonial wed-ding-gown!
Isn't she Just lovely?
Who oqn It he?;'
It struck Rock that the girl In
tho wedding-gown was certainly
worth looking at. At first she did
hot appear to bo masked at all, b-.it
as, she drew closer lie saw that sho
wore a close littlug mask, scarcely
any whiter than her powdered face.
Her hair was done up In sonm
nmr.r'lng style and as colorless as
snow. Arms and neck, of exnulslto
contiiur. Ilkcwist were of a dazzling
whiteness. The gown, one of thne
hanp'Sklrtcd. inany-nirned affairs
Rock had scon in pictures, took up
the space of 'luce ordinarily dressed
women. Indeed, there appeared
scarcely spaca enough tor the 6'r!
to pass him.
Trucman flattened himself against
the wall, as ho had observed the two
cowboys do. Nevertheless, the
young lady so mafvolously gowned
was forced to sweep hor skirts to
avoid contact. She came on. Rock
could not determine whether or not
her face was beautiful, but he. cer
tainly Imagined It was. The mo
mentary halting of the party, evi
dently to choose a direction, brought

'.''Rock' did nflt draw a breath dur
ing his swift perusal of this note. :
Then he gasped and devoured It
agSln. Though he coul(J not believe '
he was awake the words were there,
on whlta paper, In Ink, clear and
Arm, In even, beautiful script.
What did they betray? He could
not subdue his pounding heart, but
he strangled the leaping! whirling,
rapturous thoughts. Her letter be

before had begged him to leave ber!
' Lastly she did not know herself,
Sho would come, It only to To
what! Rock stormed at his Insane
hopes.
Rock placed the note Inside his
vest and strode back toward the
aorrldor, his breast throbbing, his
head; high, his step buoyant, his
nerves vibrant.
As he entered tho corridor, Thlry
capio out ot a door halfway down
and.. loomed to float toward him.
They met, both awqr of others
present. Rock, removing his hat,
mado her qn elaborate, bpv, ,
"Lady from Virginia, I salute
you," ho said gallantly. . -,
,"SI'r Knight of hq Ca,rq Table,"
she ropllod, and p.ffered her hand.
Rock clasped It and kissed it with
tho old-fashioned courtesy duo tho
charnctor she personified. But they
acted no moro. She seemed sllont
ly contused as ho led her to the
patio. There In the subdued glow pf
tin lanterns they wore comparative
ly alone. V
"Thlry! You paralyzed mo," lio
said, at longth. "I dldn'l know you.
I didn't know ypu. , . .. And, oh,
how lovoly you look!"
She murmured her thanks. Thiy
stood under an archway beside the
fountain. The falling water tinkled
In harmony with the sort strains
of music. For them it was neither
tho place nor tho time for calmness.
"How over did you know me?" no
asked.
"It was the way you stood."
"My brothers the twins and Al
and the Farrell boys know me, of
courso," said Tlil,-y. "Wo must find
them. Then after a few dancea I'll

"Thlry, there's no Ifr-now or

' "Will you dance while 1 danco?"
"N'o. I'll watch you and seo It

"Oh, but surely you must tcar.t
to danco some?" she quoricd.
"Only with you."
