I was afraid to look at Dicky when his mother answered my long and forced explanation of our delay In opening the door for her by her prise Richard had exhibited upon seeing her and her cousin. I had just said that I told Dicky I had seen them alighting from the taxicab. I had saved him from one horn of the dilemma, only to impale both of us on the other.

"Don't be so suspicious, mother dear." he said. "Of course I was sur prised to see you both. Is there any thing very strange about that, con sidering we supposed yon to be safe down in Florida and that I haven't seen or heard from Cousin Agatha in years?" "Which is certainly not Cousin Agatha's fault." that lady put -in with just exactly the sepulchral snUf I should have expected from her. 1 was afraid I should, dislike this new "relative-in-law" intensely If she kept up the promise or. rather, the threat of her first appearance in our home. "I was good enough to be remembered and visited and writ ten to when you were a small boy with an insatiable appetite for quar ters and sweets. But. of course, since you became prosperous and fa mous things are different." I had classified "Cousin Agatha" and card-indexed her before she had finished her speech. She was the perpetual martyr type of female, which is bad enough when it la lach rymose and Inefficient, but which is deadly when a coldly critical spirit and real ability for work accompany it.

Mother Graham is one ol the kind of mothers who will criti cize her children and childrenin-law herself unmerriless.y, but who fierce ly resents any disparaging remarks ti- anyone elfe. "I'm sure Richard has always been wonderfully thoughtful of me." she remarked coldly, '"and really, one cannot expect a busy professional man corresponding with all his rel atives. If he writes to his mother regularly as Richard hag always done I think he has done more than many sons do." "No doubt Richard is a paragon,' replied Cousin Agatha tartly, "but is that any reason why I shouldn't be introduced to Richard's wife?" "1 do beg your pardon. Cousin Agatha," Dicky replied contritely "This is Madge," drawing me for ward. "And if you will excuse me long enough to get into some decent togs I'm going to turn you and mo ther over to Madge. She'll take care of you. Luckily. I believe dinner is almost ready, isn't it. -dear?" He turned to me with a seraphic smile and no hint of the almost hair-pulling terms under which we had been existing before their taxi drew op. "Where Is Katie?" "Almost readv."

Its power as a Remedy is almost un limited. When we realize that the greater part or disease has a com mon origin In the depraved condi tion of the blood, and that of all agencies none so quickly removes such unsanitary conditions as the Turkish Bath, by purirying and re storing normal action. It will be readily perceived that not only are certain diseases promptly cured, but all disease is alleviated by the gen eral sanitary action of the bath Most certainly all fertile affections are peculiarly susceptible of amelio ration by its action. The essential conditions or health consist of air. water, diet and repose of the nerves, and there is no health for the Indi vidual when deprived of a Just pro portion of any one of these. Good health is the best preventative of disease, but social and business com petition is at present so keen that nervou. exhaustion Is a frequent condition and disease the common se quence.
