OF INTEREST T
j THE STRUGGLES OF A WIFE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water
CHAPTER XXI
(Copyright, 1916, Star Co.)
During dinner Myra Webb chatted
brightly and cheerfully, but with little
encouragement from either husband
or daughter. After failing to rouse
Horace from his depression she turned
her attention to Grace, inquiring as to
what kind of a day she had had.
how lessons had gone, and whether
her classes had been well attended.
For a few minutes the girl an
swered politely. But at last she
leaned back in her chair and sighed.
"Mother, dear," she suggested
wearily, "don't let's talk about
school. I know you are making an
effort to be agreeable and enter-
I talning and really It's not worth
I while. To tell you the truth, I am
| tired of thinking of school."
| The mother flushed and lapsed
■ into silence. She told herself that
she had done her best, and that her
efforts were not appreciated by the
man or the girl for whom she was
! straining every nerve. For some
: minutes not a word was spoken.
, Neither Horace. who was eating
[absent-mindedly, nor Grace, who
stared moodily at her plate, ap
j peered to notice the absolute still
! ness.
"We are not exactly a gay party,
are we?" Myra observed at last.
I "An.vono would think we were
I mourners at a funeral feast."
Her lips trembled as she spoke,
but she tried to hide her hurt under
a light tone.
"I have to do enough talking dur
i ing the day," Grace remarked, "to
1 like to be quiet when I get home.
There is nothing especially interest
ing to talk about anyway. Ai d, as
1 have a stack of exercises to cor
rect this evening, I like to relax
while T can." '
Horace a Martyr
Another silence. This was broken
by Myra's final effort to elicit some
speech from her husband.
"Aren't you feeling well, Horace?"
! she ventured.
"I told you a little while ago that
I was well, Myra." he replied., "I
also intimated that 1 was simply
tired and worried, that's all."
The tone of reproof nettled the
wife The events of the day had
worn upon her nerves. The triumph
of selling her story had been in it
self somewhat of a strain, and the
, lack of enthusiasm with which
Horace had received the news of
her good fortune had dashed her
spirits cruelly.
Now with her endeavors to make
home pleasant set at naught. she
felt her self-control replaced by a
subtle sense of resentment at the
i Injustice of her companions.
"I am tired myself," she re
marked. her voice vibrating with
hardly - suppressed impatience. "And
I. also have a few worries. But 1
do think that if I try to talk and
i Vie agreeable while we are at table,
I the least the rest of the family
I can do Is to help me out."
Her husband looked at her in sur
prise. "My dear wife," he said in
the judicial tone that adds fuel to
fires of vexation, "there ts no need
of your assuming that injured man
ner. If you had been down town
nil day. as I have. X doubt If you
would feel any more like talking of
> trivialities than I do."
j Tears sprang to Myra's eyes, but
she winked them back resolutely.
: Grace, glaucing at her ,saw her dls
j comflture and feared that there
might ensue an altercation such as
she especially disliked. Therefore,
I she pushed her chair back from the
j table and rose to her feet.
"If you will excuse me, I think I
j will go to my. room now," she ex-
I plained. "I have a great deal to do,
| and I am so tired that T do not think
i that 1 will wait for any dessert
j but get right to work."
When she was gone, the meal
j ended in complete stillness so far
as the pair in the dinlngroom was
concerned. Horace ate one tart, and
| helped himself to another. To the
wife, the dessert tasted of sawdust.
I She felt as if she shourd choke if
I she did not get away by herself
soon.
Even Slnjrlng Is Barred
From the kitchen came the rattle
of dish washing, mingled with the
unmelodiouß crooning of the maid.
T-izzie was evidently reeling well
once more and was so deeply occu
pied in her task or in the music of
her own Irish song, that she forgot
all else. Over and over again she
sang the same refrain, until the
master of the house set down hts
coffee cup with a mutter of exas
peration.
"I declare!" he exclaimed. "That
girl's singing is enough lo sef one
crazy! You must tell her to stop
it. Myra!"
The wife herself had been an
noyed by the sotind but at her hus
band's speech she forgot all except
his outburst.
"<>h, Horace," she protested quick
ly, "if anyone can be happy enough
to sing, let her do it! Few of us
can."
Her husband's look conveyed re
proach even more strongly than his
words.
"That is not a very kind thing to
say, Jlyra," he remarked. "Things
are hard enough for all of us with
out your complaining and making
them harder."
"I have not been complaining!"
the wife retorted. "I am merely
stating a fact. And perhaps if ail
of us tried harder to be pleasant
we would find things easier all
around."
"Are you trvirtg now?" the man
demanded, sarcastically, his New
England temper the one emotion
which (lie descendants of the Puri
tans are not ashamed to display
getting the best of him.
"And that is hardly a kind thing
for you to say," M.vra reminded him.
"I am sorry if 1 have seemed cross
or depressed, but I have received no
encouragement to he otherwise
since we sat down to dinner."
The husband's eyes snapped an
grily.
"1 suppose you mean that all the
effort in everything is on your
part?" he accused. "I've been a
failure in business and in my home
as well. You probably feel because
you have sold a story that you are
becoming a success where I failed.
Well, it is not the pleasantest thing
in the world for a man to feel that
his wife is helping support his
household. Please bear that in
mind, Myra!"
She did not flash back at him. She
told herself that he was angry and
did not mean what he said. Still,
the hurt went deep and rankled.

Bolted Frocks Are Fashioned
This Season For Old
and Young
By MAY MANTON

and 8 years.
i All the belted frocks are essentially
fashionable this season. This one is novel
for the belt is passed through openings
that are made for the purpose, to give an
unusual effect. The pockets with their
shaped upper edges are pretty. In the
picture, blue linen is scalloped with
white. The material and the treatment
both are in the height of style but this
is a frock that can be made from linen
1 or piqu6 or from thinner material, suc-h
as lawn, T-ith equal propriety. For the
dressy frock, taffeta would be pretty,
with the pockets omitted. White scal
loped witn color will be much worn
throughout the coming summer. White
linen, cotton gabardine and piqu6 are
charming made in this way for sturdy
frocks. Handkerchief lawn is lovely
for the more dressy ones.
For the 6 year size will be needed,
yards of material 37 yards or
I 2 yards 44 inches wide,.
The pattern 89.24 is cut in sizes for girts
from 4to 8 years. It will be mailed to

Homely Virtues by
Beatrice Fairfax
Are the old-fashioned virtues of dig
| tllty and self-respect going out of
j style Occasionally one is tempted to
think so.
But as long as the world lasts the
woman who values herself lightly will
Ibe lightly valued in turn. Never for
get this when some man urges you to
have a drink to prove yourself a good
•"sport, as some "popular" girl explains
to you that the persons wouldn't like
her so well if she didn't let them make
love to iter occasionally.
A certain cheap success may be ob
tained by an undignified catering to
the baser side of worldly natures. But
it is cheap success—remember that.
( It leads nowhere, and it does not abide
i long.
White you are young and pretty and
able to carry off boldness and flashi
ness and lax moral standards with a
little air of youthful bravado and
'"cuteness" you may be the center of
a gay circle. But tiieir admiration is
not worth having, and it can't be
; kept.
| No worth-while man wants his wife
1 to be a woman of questionable reputa
tion, or even one of whom gay com
rades speak lightly, nor yet one whose
intimates are people of too giddy a
, sort.
Popularity which can be bought by
| relaxing the standards of self-respect
ling womanhood is not worth having.
Too many girls are writing me agi
tated letter about the boys who sud
denly stopped being nice to them when
(refused a good night kiss. The boy
who sets a price 011 his attention and
demands that a girl repay him for his
society as escort to a dance is either
weakly selfish or scoundrelly, in any
case his terms are usurious and no
dignified girl should pay them. '
Familiarity does breed contempt.
That is an axiom of fact based on
human nature. A boy who is per
mitted to take liberties with a girl is
justified in supposing that other boys
are allowed the same freedom. He
does supp6.se it. He thinks the girl
a cheap little coquette or worse.
What girl would sanely sacrifice her
chances of future happiness to pay
some young Lothario for a chocolate
Ice cream soda or a trip to Coney ls
when put that way, doesn't it, girls?
But that is just about how it stands.
Let people can you prim, prudish,
'land? It sounds absurd or sensational
j old-fashioned, slow, not a good sport,
a quitter, anything they like, and re
j fleet that people who reproach your
dignity in these terms are morally lax
j young wasters who are ready to mort
-1 gage their ideals, their education and
! their chances of future happiness in
successful marriage for the sake of a
'little cheap emotion of the sort that is
guaranteeed to leave a bitter after ef
fect.
WHEX YOl' GET THE FEVER

Experience of Chief Engineer Ashmead of Madeira - Mumore
Railway Company Means Much to Indifferent World
CHUT Kit .">0
Chief Engineer Ashmead of the;
lladeira-Mamore Hallway Company
ate largely of while bread, mashed
potatoes and fresh meal obtained by i
slaughtering cattle imported on the;
litof. As a rule twice a day and
often three times a day this diet of
bread, biscuits, cakes, crackers, roasts, j
steaks, and potatoes constituted the
bulk of his meals.
Reporting his experience to me, he [
said: "I realized that 1 was not up
to snuff, but could locate no particu- j
lar cause for anxiety. I simply felt
languid and uneasy. Then I began
to observe among the men a tendency;
to stub their toes while walking
along smooth roads. 1 noticed also,
that some of them complained of
slight swelling in the ankles, which
gradually extended upward to the;
knees. When this swelling was at
its height a dent in the flesh, made
by pressure from the finger, would re
main a long time.
"Shortness of breath and palpitation
of the heart were the next symp- j
loms. All of the men suffered serious
heart trouble, after which they began |
to walk as if they had locomotor!
ataxia. As the cases advanced the
swelling subsided and the limbs
gradually wasted away, suggesting,
prior to death, complete atrophy. |
Nothing remained but the bone and |
skin.
"The twenty physicians with us gave j
the victims every conceivable kind of ■
medicine. Nothing did them any j
good, and, prior to their death, they
were- completely prostrated and help- J
less.
"Some of our doctors said tlie dis
ease was not beri-beri, because the
men had consumed no rice, although
the symptoms seemed to be peculiarly
the same. Other doctors contended ,
that It was beri-beri."
The doctors did not know that rice i
has nothing to do with beri-beri, and j
that beri-beri is only an accidental,
oriental phrase by which white bread I
starvation, in its last extremity is de
scribed.
The fact that all mal-nutrition,
anaemia, or mineral starvation is ac-1
companied by serious bcart distur
bances had not suggested to the;
twenty physicians in the Madeira-1
Mamore poison squad that the dying
men could have been saved had the
missing elements in their diet been
supplied.
Having observed with morbid inter- !
est these symptoms among the sick
and dying laborers, Chief Engineer j
Ashmead noticed with alarm, under
circumstances that impressed all its!
details upon his mind, that he him
self was becoming a victim.
The camp had lost a man in the
jungle, which was so dense that, hav
ing penetrated it. one's sense of di
rection was completely confused.
Once lost it was a serious problem to
find the way back to camp.
Ashmead participated in an extend
ed search which failed. As night came
on he gave orders to have the camp j
whistle blow at short intervals until
morning in order that the sound might
give the lost, man some guide by
which to direct his course through
the brush.
During the search and while still
fresh he climbed a little hill. When
he reached the top he was out of
breath. His heart was pounding. He
was obliged to stop and rest.
That night when he removed his
leggings he noticed that his ankles
were slightly swollen. For three days
he found It difficult to buckle the
straps on his leggings. Then came
the consciousness that he was losing
his appetite for bread and desired to
eat nothing.
He remembered also that for the
first time In his life he had a craving
for orange juice. He had never been
fond of oranges until that time. He
knew nothing of the fact that oranges
are base-formers and that his body,
starved of bases, was clamoring for
the elements so necessary to life.
On the fourth and fifth day follow
ing the first appearance of the strik
ing symptoms lie observed that when
his flesh was dented at the ankles
the finger marks remained.
Laborers were dying around him
everywhere. "Beri-beri is killing
them," said the doctors.
"T have beri-beri too. T am not
going to stay and die," he said.
He quit camp at once.
Bv first boat he returned to Eng-j
[ land and on the ship took no j
food hut orange juice, which he con
sumed in large quantities. On a diet
of little else his heart dilation dis-[
I appeared within sixty days. Except
for experiencing a depressing sense
of lassitude for the following six:
| months he was apparenty none the ;
worse for his close call.
Ashmead had no knowledge of the |
fact that oranges are base-formers, j
He did not know that the feeble or-!
ganlc acids of_ the orange juice are'
1 quickly oxidized in the body and
burnt in the production of heat and
1 the alkaline earthy salts or bases of
the oranges are thus made available)
for the work which they are intended 1
I to perform in the economy of nutrl
j tion.
He did not know that the abstrac
tion of calcium salts from the tissues,
through the consumption of refined,
demineralized, acid-forming foods, I
: prepares them as fertile fields for j
the deevlopment of tuberculosis.
He did not know that nature's I
method of curing tuberculosis, as we I
have already seen, is by calcifying the |
tuberculosis area, thus shutting it off
from the rest of the body.
He did not know that nature can
j do tills work only when food calcium j
J is available in its proper forms.
He did not know that there was no j
calcium in the Madeira-Matnore Rail-1
way Company poison squad diet. One j
! of the suppressed facts Sti connection j
j with the record of mal-nutrition j
among the laborers was tne scourge of j
I tuberculosis, which swept over ' the
men who escaped "beri-beri." Both
Ashmead and Dose observed that as!
many men were lost through tubercU- '
; losis as through the disease which j
! they called "beri-beri."
So rapid was the progress of the
'disease that many of the men died of
j hemorrhage within three or four
j months following the appearance of|
the first symptoms of the disease.
