She was uttering whatever came into her head. A pair of eyes opened feebly. "Ere." . " "Here I am. Clay. I'm Ere. Here I am." .,,. . "1 love yon. Eve. ; (. . ' A sob from the elder Mrs; Wales disturbed v which fol lowed the weakly mifrmHred de claration. - 'A. ;-... ""And I lore you. Clay." Again there was silence, with Eve bathing Clay's drawn face in tearful kisses. Then a hand was laid on Eve's shoulder. Her arms held out toward him in mute ap peal, she was pulled from the room into the hall.. -'A kindly voice spoke. "I think you ought to be told, Mrs. Wales, that your huBband has very little time to live . . . He may die any moment." Ji ttThe doctor's professional -voice had a touch of kindness in it. "I 4Ven't told his mother. I wi3h I t . roo would." Jive regarded mm as one in a trance. The, doctor took her shoulders, for she looked as t she might faint. In a moment she was sufficiently recovered to say, "Oh, how did it happen." The doctor, surprised that she didn't know, hesitated about ex plaining. "I was told by the po liceman that an automobile struck him . . . His back is broken." Subsequently, Eve learned that Clay was knocked, down and run over at thex'ortfQf of Washington street and HiglrVavenue. The driv er of the automobile, when ar raigned in police court, wasre 1 cased after two persons 'who saw the accident testified that the vic- i Sin walked directly in front of the "He seemed to be drunk, or ! T3rS? trance, or something," one of them explained. But the doctor told the court that there was no evidence that the victim had been drinking. ,3Eve came in time to realize j what was really the matter with j Clay; at that fatal moment. He 1 W mmO ,iailklll6 Cft&wu, null A -va uuu h so distracted that he didn't see or1 hear anything. And because she felt herself , responsible for ,that mood. 1 she also felt herself re sponsible for his death. . And it was because of this haunting feeling that Eve made her plans to leave Central City about a month after Clay's death. She had gone back to work in John Ingate's office, after two weeks in which she. suffered con stantly fronvVnerves. - She sim ply had to have something to do to take her mind off of Clay. ."flQen 8he told John Inate that she was leaving Central City, he was visibly affected. V "I can't stand it here any more, Tnhn I see his shadow every- d l where." The following day he called her l Into his office. I - "Eve, you'll not be any happier elsewhere, unless you have some bis, interest' to occupy - you. Not because of .hat, however, but be cause I think you will bo valuable vto us, I want you. to go to St, I ' v Louia and open an office for us there buying and selling. I've . f been considering branching out far a long time, and now. I think, It Che time to do it. No one, in this business knows it better than you do.

"Only when they haven't the ca pacity. You. have the capacity. Really, you're entirely fitted to be president of this company. Eve, I'm! depending on you." -.Thus was an opportunity thrust In her-lap that she -had not hoped forand reluctant to accept. But accept It she did. Eve was getting tired of the osestion -rviewer for Ty Busy Women's Magazine.

Child HeaJlh Demonstradon Chief PubUc health work Is divided into two fields, according to .Dr. Walter Brown, director of ; the Marion county child health dem onstration, in speaking of .the pos sibilities .for those desiring to en ter the field. The first f ieli is the technical, or "straight" health work, such as health officers, county, city or state. The second field is that of preventive medicine. That is, the field of specializing in preventing disease aa well as curing them. The first field requires, in ad dition to a medical training and experience, a specialized knowl edge of sanitary engineering, and a knowledge, of ,milk conditions pertaining to control of eontage ous diseases. This ia a large and increasing field. - Well ;; trained technical health officers are more and more sought after. The field is becom ing worthwhile financially, and is gradually being taken out ofpoli tics. The field holds- forth to the one entering, importance and responsibility. Preventive medicine has hardly been touched, according to Dr. Brown. For this field the one en tering must have a highly special ized training as well as a torain capable of inductive .reasoning. The idea is to take each patient as an individual and to give him a complete examination. . The doctor also take's the fam ily history of his patient, and a record of his daily habits, mental moral and physical. Then,- by going over the pa tient's system, the doctor is able to tell just where he is inefficient, and just what he must do if he wishes to avoid illness that will be ine-'-'- continues in his SHOW Tml 'ability " t.f' present habits.- - mr W r Dr. Brown .grad uat'eifrom the?

From 1914-1515 he served as epidemiologist for the Massa chusettes state department of health. v He became health commission er of Bridgeport,, Conn., during the war when the town was a munition center.
