required two bands. Tbe door Itself
bad sagged on Its binges jud had to
be lifted by the handle so that tbe
bolt could be shot The door was
heavy and required a strong lift.
As Flint strained eagerly upward
on the brass doorknob. Ivy swung
the heavy water-bottle and brought
it down with stunning concussion
on the top of bis head. He dropped
In a heap, his fingers twitching- She
recovered her sewing innturtals,
atepped across tbe unconscious man,
opened the cabin door and vent on
deck.
Ivy's face was untroubled and ber
first thought on gaining tbe dock
was how much fresher the air was
than It had been down la that lot
tuffy cabin. Flint was not the first
man to be quieted and brought to
order by a blow on the lop of the
head with a bottle or a carafe.
She did not think that su had
killed him and are did aoi much
care. His devotion which hod really
touched bo bad all ended In boast
llness. Men like Flint were prooably
bett doad. What was he dolrg any
way under the Chinese Bag? Didn't
he have a Sag of his own?
WHEN presently Bowers Joined
her, having been worsted, be ad
mitted humorously. In his jrgutaeni
with Won Bo. she made no mention
of the unpleasant scene with the
wireless operator. If Bowers learned
what bad happened, he would feel,
manlike, that something drastic bad
to be done about It Flint had been
sufficiently punished.
She did no: boileve that he him
self would talk about what aid bap
penud, or molest ber ngala. On the
other hand, she longed u tell Bow
ers. They wore on their honeymoon.
She longed to tell him everything
that she knew and tbcro woi many
things of course, that she must no er
tell aim, but still the strategy of
getting Flint to bolt the cabin door
while she cracked him over the head
was Immensely to her credt'. and
he wanted her hasband to know

tnnki the centennial of the Inven

The light began to fall but the
simple washdrees upon which she
had boen jngaged vas finished. She
had planted to make several more,
but Bowers dissuaded her. This one
would do to go Mhorc In, and once
she was a-lioro, she would no longer
have to tew for herself. Others
would so . tot her.
Helen Joined them, climbed light
ly to Ivy's shoulder and chlttered In
ber ear.
"What's she saying?" aked
Bowers with a smile.
"She's been talking to the caged
monkeys,'' said ivy, "and they've In
sulted her because she's free and
has bats and frocks and a trunk
and suitcase all '-er own. She says
that they're nothlDg but low-down
monkey-trasb." j
BUT Ivy's attention was on neither;
Helen nor Bowers. It was al
most time for the "Got Ready" gong,
when sbe and Bowers wou)1 both o
below to change lor dinner and her
attention was on the door by whlh
Flint, If ar.d when he recovered con
sciousness, might be expected to
emorge.
It would be altogether unpleasant
If -Sowers wore to discover him
prone on ine Boor j Ivy's ctbln. Ex
planations would not fit tho case.
The truth would have to bo tola, and
Bower, of course would feel thai
he had to do something about It.
When Flint actually did emerge
through the doorway toward which
she had boen casting glnncos, she
sighed with relict. Flint's face was
dead-white and his brain wits not
altogether clear.
It did out occur to him that Ivy
might keep silent about what b
happoned. Women didn't. .1 tolling
would got others Into trouble, thoy
told. Undoubtedly Bowers knew.
Undoubtedly Bowers would take
some kind of action.
This would p.obnhly be .Ist-acilon.
Flint was no match for Ilnnors, but
he was not a cowarj Ro!luvl..& that

Ivy, realizing whut might rierliaps
bo going on In the young man's mind,
thought best to warn nlm that all
was well. So she called to him In
gay voice:
"Whore have you been hiding
yourself?"
"Nowhore special," snld Flint u
he Joined them. ".Most anywhere. J
here boon trying to hide from a split

"Ever try aspirin?" asked Bowers
in the eagor voice of one who wishes
another to bencllt hy a pot cure.
"I've got some In my kit some
where." "Thanks." said Flint, "but 1 don't
need anything. It's begun to clear np
by Itself. Hot, Isn't It?"
Bowers had rlson from his chair,
"You sit down thorn " he said, "an1
sprawl. 1 am going to make yoti try

He loft them and went to find the
medicine, whistling cheerfullr ns lie

"Aren't you going to tell him?"
asked Flint
"Not unless you force me to," ssld
Ivy. "It wouldn't be plea-rnt for me

EASY VICTIMS OF
SALEM, Ore. (UP) The dog and
coyote in thl state are the natural
reservoirs from 'which rabies spreads
to other animals, the state board of
health reported today.
"The disease Is .usually caused by
the bite of an animal oleic from It."
the board said. 'AU warm-blooded
animals are susceptible, but It ts
disease primarily of the canine race,
especially dogs. The animals most
susceptible are the dog, coyote, wolf,
cat, cow end the skunk or polecat.
Man, although more resistant, may
contract the disease.
Tn man as In animals the Incuba
tion period In from two weeks In most
serious bites, to a month. Bites on
the face or hands are more danfrerous
than on other parte, of the body, the
board pointed out.
"The relatively long Incubation pe
riod enables one to protect the pa
tient by preventive Inoculation," It
was explained. This consists of the
Injection of vaccine, given usually In
14 or more doses. The control of tJhe
dlscaso rests entirely upon the pre
ventive means. After symptoms ap
pear there Is no cure."
The board suggested that attempts
must continue to be made to control
tho dlsenHC by preventive treatment
of persons bitten and the elimina
tion of rabies In dogs.
The later method, coupled with the
destruction of stray or ownerless dogs.

has been tried In Denmark, Norway, '
Sweden and Australia with startling
results. Recently preventive vaccina- I
tlon of dogs against rabies with one
sub-cutaneous Injection has been
quite proper, and with proper re

value In eliminating the disease. It

GERMS KILLED
CHICAGO (UP) Man's skin Is the
most remarkable disinfecting agent In
existence, experiments of University
of Illinois medical research sclent tots
indicate.
A series of tests under the direction
of Dr. Lloyd Arnold of the University
College of Medicine, showed that 08
per cent of thousands of bacterial
which had been placed In contact
with human skin disappeared within
ten, minutes.
Dangerous bacteria, such as those
of lockjaw, bolls, typhoid and dysen
tery, vanished as quickly as did the
more harmless ones.
"However, the skin has certain
minute never-sterile areas where the
germs do not disappear," Dr. Arnold
reported. "Pour such areas are under
the fingernails, the thin line which
marks the Junction ot the lip with
the membrane lining of the nostrils,
and the rim of the eyelid where the
outMde skin meets the inside lining.
Dirt almost completely destroys the
disinfecting qualities, the experiments
further showed. The percentage of
bacteria which disappeared from un
clean skin surfaces was almost neg
ligible In every case, the scientists
found.

RESULT OF WAR
SE
BOISE. Idaho. Sept. 11. ip)
Branding fascism, nazlisra and com
munism as at "eternal war with
Americanism," Senator William E.
Borah declared to a pioneer audience
here today that without national
pivie "civilization would crumble and
pcrlMi."
His address opened a centennial
celebration c o m m e m orating the
founding in 1834 of Fort Boise.
"We have heard much In recent
years about internationalism, about,
wiping out of national lines, and dis
couraging or destroying national pride
about the common aim of all peo
ple," he said.
"No one more desires peace and
friendship with all nations than the
people of this country. But a people
not devoted to their own country, a
people devoid of loyalty to other
countries, would be as unfit for pea.:e
as they would be for war, and would
as surely invite the contempt of other
nations as they in time would en
compass the rum of their own."
"As a result of the war," he said,
"the world Is now afflicted with every
form of ism which the ingenuity of
the human brain could conceive.
"Nothing Is finer than the fidelity
of tho pioneer to the Rreat underly
ing principles of constitutional gov
ernment. We can do no better than
emulate his example."
