PAGE EIGHT Tht OREGON STATESSLAN; Salen. Oregon, Satcrfay Morning, September 14, 1929 Mue'Bloed Artel m ' by ROBERT TERRY SHANNON CHAPTER LOT "JTJT everything is wonderfal - W for as," she declared, smil "T lair eagerly. MYou hare a ' home all famished and wait lug. Iva always said that house needed a woman," and the smil ed with a little domestic quirk. She seemed to him, now, like a child incapable of appreciating tbe grarlty of their problems. I don't know how to go about straightening things out," he ad mitted, his face set and his eyes staring straight ahead. . "But, darling, there Is no need to 43 all that at once or worry about It either. You're to take me down to my gate now and then go along home yourself every thlng la bound to come oat all Tight," He could not escape the calm ness of her roice and, while he was vaguely very happy, he clung perversely to his troubled - thoughts. "What do you advise me to do?w "I advise you," she said, kiss ing him again, "to go along home , and behave yourself. Just let things work out we're in no rush, yon know, all eternity is ahead of us." - Once more before leaving they surrendered themselves to crush ing embraces: again and again ha . kissed her until their . blissful world of delicious joy was recre ated and they were floating on golden clouds. . At her gate they parted with a reluctance that filled the night with aching sweetness. "You're not going to worry, aro you?" she remonstrated again. "But I feel like I ought to start to do something." She sealed his lips with another kiss. "Yon leave it to me. I have an Idea. I'm not going to say any thing Tight now but wait a little while and we'll see what'U hap pen." The variation of his own feel ings amazed him. All in a space of a few hours be would sink to depths of despair and then, for no 'reason, would soon be in the clouds. : c Sleep came to him, light and colorful. Morning again found him In the timber with his axe ringing. An other day passed and he was again at work among the shadowy green pines, when a voice called to him. Tom Freeman came up and they shook hands. "Marian sent me," Freeman said. Tom Freeman sat down on a ,log and Eddie joined him. "I saw Marian and she told me about you two," Freeman said, his voice slightly unhappy. "I suppose I ought to congratulate you and I do. She's a wonder ful girl, but she never could see me. I was always nothing but a friend." "Anybody can be in love," Ed die said, with sudden wisdom, "but it's the hardest thing on earth to be a true friend." "I found that out," Freeman agreed. "Marian put all the cards on the table and asked me - to help you out.yThat's why I'm here, Regan. It s Marian's Idea but I'm soing through it for her sake and for yours, too, I reck on. "What did she want you to do?" Eddie asked, puzzled. INTENSIVE CARE OF INFANTS NECESSARY Avoiding Dangers of Undernourishment Is Mother's Bis: Job, Says Authority, Reminding That Babes Aren't Like Topsy, Who "Just Growedf ' By ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. D.

"Marian thought I might go over to the county seat and see that New York girl of your. She had an Idea that If somebody from outside, like my self, put the question squarely to ber that Miss Veressl might eut out ber darn foolishness and go back to New York. After all, very few girls really want to cause a good guy any serious trouble. I don't know how good I am as an orator, but with your permission 111 try to make her see the light. How about It?" The plan was so simple, that for a moment It seemed silly to Ed die. "I don't think she'd fall for that stuff," be mused. "I disagree with you," Freeman said. "I'll make an appeal to her human nature; that's the easiest and best way out and there's a good ehanee I ean get away with It." It occurred to Eddie that Tom Freeman was one of the finest men he had ever known. Not every guy would go to battle for his ri val. "The trouble Is." he objected, "that you are a stranger to her. She's not used to men like you. Freeman, and she might not get you like I do." They walked back to the house, discussing the problem. Unexpectedly, a new complica tion presented Itself; the arrival of Mike Arno. He was waiting for them, his" smart New York lug gage piled up on the veranda. Tall, buoyant, with expansive manner,! he sprang down tbe step and pumped Eddie's hand. "Did you get my letter that I was coming?" he demanded, beam ing. "Cripes, It's nice out here, kid. It's nice in the country, ain't It?" "Yes, it's nice," Eddie admitted, with a tired smile. "I'm glad you are here, Mike but things don't look so good for me right now. Bernice is in town and she's play ing old Nick with me. Meet Mr. Freeman, Mr. Arno." "You mean she came down here?" he asked. "Is she causing any trouble, Kid?" Eddie explained to Tom Free man: "Mr. Arno's a friend of Bernice's." He turned to Mike with bitter frankness. "She's here," he said, "and she Is getting me in wrong with the whole county. My friend, Mr. Freeman, here thought something of trying to persuade her to go back to New York. She won't lis ten to me." "Did you come right out and give her the air?" Arno demanded. "I did." "Where- is she now?" "In town." Arno looked at Tom Freeman's car. "That yours?" "Yes." Arno girded an affectionate arm around Eddie's shoulder. "Listen, Kid," he said, emo tionally. "Bernice is a good kid at heart. I don't think Mr. Free man could handle her alone, but if I joined up with him It ought to be a cinch. He could put up the local angle of the situation to her and I could tell her in her own language that she was mak ing a lot of trouble. You know, Eddie, I got a gift that way." too often. Few children "just grow" as did Topsy. Most of them peed to receive intensive care. This is , necessary to insure their good health ist adult life, as well as during childhood. It is a commonly stated fact that if you would resist infection and disease you must be well nourished. Unless the child receives from birth the proper diet you cannot hope to have H healthy. The breast-fed baby Is often undernourished This is of course, due to the mother's diet If she avoids the foods containing lime, iron, phos phorus and vitamins, the baby also must go with out them. Consequently, every nursing mothei should take great care to have her diet includ plenty of fresh green vegetables, fresh an stewed fruits, milk, eggs and a moderate amour, of meat. then the formula must be made of added lime water, gruel and dextro-' waiviaaaj case, urange, tomato or A.

It came hack to Eddie's mind that by profession he was a con fidence man a glib persuader, but baek of all that, too, a guy with a keen Idea of friendship. "Mike." he said, tensely, "yon don't know what this means to me. I'm engaged to be married and If yon can get Bernice off my bands, you'll save my life." (To he continued tomorrow.) SPECIAL BIT IS e SEATTLE, Sept, 13 (AP) The International executive board of the Amalgamated association of street ea"r and electric railway em ployee tonight sent Bert Lawson, of Shreveport, La., executive board member, to New Orleans to repre sent the association in the street ear strike situation there.

(AP) Ireland has a prejudice against "foreign games," and golf was for long con sidered a foreign game. It had few players till Arthur Balfour, then chief secretary, gave It an Impetus of fashion, and in those days to wield a golf club stamped a man as an uncompro mising supporter of the British regime. But . nowadays golf has no political distinction. There are scores of golf clubs all over the country, and the game brings together men of all sec tions and classes. Members of the Dail and Senate are keen players and hold tournaments. Practically every member of the cabinet Is a golfer. But till recently- President Cosgrave held out. He gave In at last, however, and at Rosslare, where he spent his summer. holiday, took lessons from a local professional. It was an Irishman who invent ed the maxim that golf is a perfect cure for all worries, because when you are playing well nothing mat ters, and wben. you are playing badly nothing else matters.

CASPER il WORSE- THAM GOOD-NIGHT STORIES By lUx .Trefl Xnarf Mystifies His Friends With Another "Club" One day, as MIJ, Flor, Hanid and Tarn the little shadow-children with the tnrned-abont names were in the parlor, they heard a lond voice coming from the vio lin atop of the piano. They knew the voice belonged to Knarf, the shadow-hoy. Master Knarf, you must know, was president of a club which always met Inside the violin. Climbing upon the piano they peered Inside the violin and there they saw Knarf pacing up and down as though deciding some thing of the greatest Importance. He kept saying In a loud voice: "Yes it must be done. It must be done!" The others were curious to know to whom he might be talking, but as they could see no one, they concluded he was talk ing to himself. "What must be done?" Tarn asked. Knarf looked up hastily. "Hm m, he said. "It a se cret I can't tell you. It's only for members of my club." Now Knar fa clubs were very odd. He was always the president, the vice-president, the secretary and the treasurer. In addition to that, he was all the members roll ed Into one. In short, he was the whole club all by himself.' The others let themselves down Into the Inside of the violin. "What's the name of your club?" Hanid inquired. "The name of the club is the "What's to Be Done Club," Knarf replied. "We decide Just what's to be done " "About what?" asked the oth ers. "Well, It might be about this, or about that, or about the other thing; but it generally isn't." , The others were surprised. "Then what is it about?" Knarf shook his head. "If you belonged to my club I could tell you, but as yon don't, I can't. "We'll Join your club then," said MIJ.

"Oh, no; you cant. The rules do not allow any more than one member. You'll have to Join some other club. Now don't bother me any more. The club has a great deal of things to think about!" At this the "What's to Be Done Club" started pacing up and down again, saying: "It must be done, it must be done." More and more puxzled did the others become. What could it be that Knarf was so anxious should be done? They tried to guess. ' "It must be his lessons he wants done," Flor said. Knarf frowned. "No, that's not It at all." he said. "I k"rw wMt It Is." Mij put in. --:- - VE"- I . .-S dsn feg, Hgl "It Mast Be Done." "He wants the day to be done so he ean go to sleep." Knarf shook his head again. "I don't want to go to sleep. "The 'What's to Be Done Club' hates to go to sleep." Then Yam guessed. "He wants everything to be done so that he won't have anything to do." Knarf paid no attention to this remark. He merely continued pac ing up and down. "Maybe," said Hanid. "he wants nothing to be done " But the cunning shadow boy said nothing. The others simply couldn't make him out. What could it be that he seemed to want done? All at once a very curious thing happened. From the dining-room came the sound of a bell. It was a very cheerful little bell. It was followed by the clatter of dishes Play a Hump' J I'M CTOIMG AP-E TILL! El BUY THAT COAT VUlTH MY R-AJSE MAC in the Act" He Started' FORtVET IT. CA5PEPJ TOU-R&-.

The Home Br ALICE A Bowl of LbcIoiu Pears to Tempt the Fruit Dodger To tempt one into eating more raw fruit (and few of us eat enough of It), a howl of pears should be kept convenient and conspicuous. It's the kind of fruit which should be eaten between meals, because a large. Juicy pear always seems too much for a des sert. (Nevertheless, one of the fa vorite dishes offered to top off an excellent Italian dinner' Is a lus cious big pear accompanied by a triangle of Camembert cheese, and the custom is to eat them togeth er.) 'Tears" means Bartletts or Seckles or Winter Nells to most of us, but as a matter of fact these are only three of the eighty-odd varieties. Pears come in many shapes and sixes and, and while they were once an exclusive sum mer fruit with a limited season we can not get some kind of pear In almost every month of the year. Pears should he judged by soundness, and not necessarily by color. If a pear shows even a slight spot or blemish, it may be worse when cut open. The desir able fruit Is of good size suitable to its variety and firm to the touch.- Even if it looks fairly grees it is quite safe to purchase. Left In a cool place for a few days the pear will ripen beautifully. But once ripe, it should be eaten at once, because at that point de cay sets in rapidly. , The best way to eat pears Is raw. But wben there is an abund ance of them and the au naturel method gets tiresome, they can be served In many other ways. They are excellent as fruit cup. and the tinkle of knives and forks. Master Knarf looked up bright ly, and exclaimed! "Oh now it's done!" The next Instant he sprang out of the violin and disappeared towards the dining-room. The others gased at each other.

For preserving the Seckel pears are very good. If raw fruit it on the forbidden list (as it Is for some persons) pears may be stewed, and Instead of us ing sugar for sweetening, add tbe juice of sweet oranges. This im proves the appearance and flavor and is more wholesome than ad ding sugar. When serving pears as a salad -one must be careful not to com bine with too pungent ingredients. The flavor of pears while delight ful Is faint and easily overwhelm ed. However, the right kind of combination will develop instead of drowning the flavor. Pears and bananas somehow blend well with out loss of flavor to either. But the more common habit of putting a ball of cream heese atop a raw pear rather squelches the fruit. Also if pears are mounded on let tuce as salad the dressing should he French with lemon, not vin egar. Endive which is the most delicate of all salad plants is a better combination with pear than the coarser xoaatBe er leaf let tuce. ?.. PleUed Pears t 8 pounds Seckel pears 6 pounds sugar 4 lemons M pound ginger root, The pears are peeled but the steam left on. Place in a- large agate sauce pan - and add jut enough water to prevent burning. Cook over a slow tire for an hour. Remove pears and -add to the liquid in the saucepan the juice of the lemons, also the peeled rind of four lemons, sugar and pounded ginger root and cook for ten minutes. Then add the pears and continue cooking over a very slow fire for another hour. If desired a -clove can be stuck In each pear before it Is added to the liquid. This gives a more pungent flavor, very pleasant if you hap pen to like cloves. Pack In sterilized small tumb lers and when cold seal with para fine. Excellent to serve with roast lamb, pork or cold meats. By CLIFF STERRETT By RUSS WESTOVE8 A IMfeTV THE U1AV THAT C5UV WHIPPLE HOfeS TILLle: . SHE THMfc HE'S GONNA GtVE HEfc A i2AVSE VAHV.
