It hits one, ner f men; go to sleep debating it; women wonaer about it more or less vaguely as they peer into half-empty cupboards r remend the familygarments. The subject is not unique but we note the author is Ray diately arrests our attention. Vance'and the writer were members of a college debat ing team !in the long ago; and after. college he went east to Harvard and to New York, while we came west. We had oc casional reports of his success dent of Brookmire's, one of the ganizations of "new era days. his office in the Graybar building on Lexington avenue near Grand Central station. He was vestment trusts which shell the alias giving investment advice. Since 1927 oodles of water have gone over the dam and down the wringer drainboard of bankruptcy and deflation. We had heard nothing of Vance and have wondered wheth er he had guessed right in 1929 or was among the army of fortune-losers who mumble gibberish about board rooms in brokerage houses. So naturally we were pleased to see that be has survived and maintained his professional standing sufficiently to qualify as contributor to a series in The . Nation. He is probably still in the forecasting business ; for ' market forecasters learned long ago that a new crop was born at the rate of one a minute. That is a lengthy introduction to report that Vance agrees substantially with what this newspaper with bold ness declared on June 5th, that the depression was in the v lastf stages of its precipitate decline. Vance concludes his article: "This period of depression is drawing to a close from nat ural causes and will probably show Improvement before the end of this year without any legislative aids." So that is that, which merely proves that Vance's reas oning may be as rotten as our intuition, or as accurate. The next two or three months will write the answer to .that. It lis worth mentioning however that while the latter Eart of June saw some bad bumps and jolts in business the ond market which is about the best , criterion braced itself when it got close to its June 1st lows ; and that is something. , It may be our imagination but we persist in the belief that the stray rays of light which seem to illuminate the eastern hilltops herald the dawn and are not the expiring rays of an . (economic order sinking into primitive chaos. Another quotation from this ar'icle by friend Vance, and the whole of it is worth thoughtful persual because it is both practical and thoroughly sound in its economic prin ciples. This is for those who can only see that things will "?row worse before they are better" : "Of course, it is hard to believe today that business will revive unless someone does 'something drastic', but is It any harder than it was to see danger in 1923 or 19297 As a matter of fact, there is just as much nonsense being talked today about the Impossibility of revival as was ever talked about the impossi bility of a panic. The natural forces which will produce that revival aire already at work, with the mass of our population co operating as unconsistently through their daily acts as they co operated, unconsciously in the bringing on of the panic. Legis lative or, other conscious efforts must be approved, when they help along the natural forces, condemned when they seek some - - miraculous Or unsound way out." This is no signal for signalling full speed ahead ; but it should help to get people from holding their engines at "full jppeed astern". The Statesman wrote on June 5th:,'The depression end ed last Friday That's our story and we're going to stick to it." v- And brothers, we're still sticking.

If he lies quietly in bed he does not need as much food as when he is about and working. Nevertheless, the bed-ridden pa tient must have nourishment, for fodT needs energy and heat to aid in the patient's recovery. For those recovering from infec tious diseases, the diet should be light and simple. During the course of the fever most of the foods given are in liquid form. As the fever subsides and disappears, the amount of nutrition should be increased, but this increase should be gradual A liquid diet does not mean water merely. It includes all nourishing foods in the form of thuds. Milk U the best foundation for a liquid .diet, while gruels, broths, and fruit-Juices may be added.

"Well, doctor this also looks like heart trouble T" Multooler rubbed the red front of his nose with a pudgy forefinger. "As a matter of fact, Mr. Colt, it would look like heart trouble shows all the symptoms, just like the other one did except for one thing!" "What's that t " barked Dougherty. lbs Medical Examiners eyes were fixed in a deeply significant stare on Thatcher Celt. rd like to show you something," he said, in a nasal and sepulchrally meaningful voice. Without a word, we followed Doctor Multooler to the bedside where lay the body of Uhnstine. Lilting the head In the palm of ope hand. Doctor Mc'- tooler pointed with the fingers of the other to the nape of the neck. "See those marks 1" We did see them. They were un mistakable on the dead young flesh welts that scarred the white skin, long, fang-like streaks and blue, bruised depressions. I confess I shivered at the sight of these marks on the neck and throat and under the chin of Christine. Had the marks been made by human fingers? Multooler believed not But he had no alternative to suggest. After many years at his gruesome task, he could not think. what ob ject or what creature could have I inmcted tnose monstrous marks. to be assistant postmaster. Edgar B. Daugherty has been moved up from the ranks to be foreman in charge of the mails. Mr. Gib bard has been with the postal service for 22 years, part of the time at Los Angeles and In Salem since 1909.

Dr. Maltooler added: Toa wm want to know, Mr. Colt, that these marks were put ea her throat after death! 1 . Colt turned suddenly back i to .Mt ft Colt of tha most extraordinary; Importance. Baffled for a moment, the Commis sioner seemed suddenly to catch a gleam of light. Something was re volving in his mind; what Mal tooler had said gave him a clue and filled him with that Intellectual ex citement which is emotion raised to its most dangerous power. j But at the time I could not see the clue, nor guess what it was that had so moved Thatcher Colt. He walked slowly back to the bed and bending down close to the neck: he stared long and thoughtfully j at those fantastic streaks and blotches. At last he rose and addressed Doctor Multooler. "You will send down both bodies to the Morgue and have a full re port for me by morning," the Com missioner requested. ; "It seems; to be murder, gentlemen, withta Su perior technic. We shall haVeito work fast. I am relying on Multooler, to discover exactly h those girls died.

"Machines are you going to try that, chief T he gasped. Try what!" barked Dougherty. But Flynn was already oa the telephone, and Colt was at the threshold ef Lola's rococo bedroom, where Doctor Baldwin and Detec tive Dorothy Lox had been attend ing the stricken mother. "If Mrs. Carewe is conscious shall have to speak to her now,1 announced Colt grimly. Baldwin seemed about to protest. Then he shrugged his shoulders helplessly. "Yes that is all right," he sented, and without another word the doctor left the apartment, shadowed as before. Note paper: in hand, I sat beside the bed in Lola's room as Colt began again to ques tion the pale and haggard Mrs. Ca rewe, who lay there staring with miserable eyes blindly up at the ceiling. "Now, Mrs, Carewe," Colt began quietly, laying his hand kindly on the old lady's head, "tell me in few words what happened just now In your room! The old woman struggled upward and rested her weight on her elbow. "It was awful!" she rumbled, her voice deep in her throat. "I had f ek hysterical after rou asked me all those questions last time. I lay down in my room. I was restless. I couldn't sleep ia my own bed. I got up and went into Lola's room. I went In and turned on the lights. Then I saw I screamed Here the pitiful old creature broke down and wept. "I shan be the next to go," she groaned. "And I won't care if I can only be with Lola. Who else Is there now?" "We are all going to look out far you," promised the Commissioner soothingly. "If you will help us." i -wnat can I do7" - "Tell me everything even your suspicions." "I wilL Before God I will!" '! "Where did Christine hide in this apartment?" She must have come home be fore you reached here." "We feel sure of that. too.
