Old Grunim turned his faded, freiglitened eyes on the young master in a stari! of horror "Can't say as I rightly knows, but tliere's something mortal ijueer obaul that old stable," he gasped.

(To Re Continued.) Brimmed Hats Are Popular for Childr'n SMALL FOLKS IN LONDON AND PARIS WEAR SIMILAR CLOTHES. In Paris, as iu hondun, brimmed bats for clilblreu are the most popu- lar. The I'arls versloi; Is often of tbo same tabrlc as the coat, but it is seamed or stitched to get the crispness of outline of a felt hat and the .-'Jiapes aiu the same as one sees In felt or â€" in summer time â€" In btiaw. A faivorlte is b'Je round crown- ed Hreton «ailor, with fairly deep roll to the brim, worn turned up all the way around or up at back and down at front. I.iltlo cloches are still worn by Bmall I'arislemies although they have been abondoned by their mothers. These likewise have crowns closely fitting the head, and very cloche brims not more than a couple of inches wide af^hcir widest; this stylo of hat is worn back on the head HO that the effect Is bonnetlike. From these two main type_ ajipcar spring variations such as clothes witii brim cut away at back, or Bretons with slashed or scalloped brims. Oc- casionally, one sees a trlcorue with a postillion coat. PASTELS FOR TOTS.

In London, the leading hat style for youthful aristocrats is the clas- sic felt, slightly more squared of crown than In Paris, with roll brim worn up at back and ilowu at front.

The plump, white-haired woman â€" the first woman doctor to go into the Orient as a general practitioner â€" owned and managed a hospital in Shanghai for 12 years. Here for six month vacation, she said at her hotel of medical service, "each time I return, I note tremen- dous strides." A pioneer among women doctors, Dr Fearn overcame parental opposi- tion to take her medical degree in 1893 from the Women's Medical Col- lege of Pennsylvania. "If you become a doctor," her mother wrote from Holly Springs, Miss., her birthplace, "we rhall dis- own you." heir opposition vanished when she won a prize for a paper on sur- gery. At 21, a few â- weeks after her graduation, she performed her first difficult operation in China, with success. Soon afterwards she pre- sided at the birth of quadrupets, and was, she confessed, "a little e.>ccit- ed." What Does Your Handwriting S) By GEOFFREY ST. CLAIR (Graphologist) All Rights Reserved.

These, anil postillions and other little coats fitted at the top, are a great deal worn by children up to 7 or 8. Above that age, little girls dress in loose, belted coats, with berets, but there Iiersists some innuence of this more fitted and formal style, with a good many brimmed tats, either of felt or fabric, being worn.

"The trouble with youth," a man who knows boys rucently^conimented, "is its youthfulness." If the aiihox-- ism nt>ed.s explanation, he added, let it be said that a prime characteristic of youth is an urge for activity. If opportunity for its expression is not given through schools, and jobs are unavailable, is it to be won<lercd that unadjusted boys and girls experi- ment in fields that lead to ronriict with law and order'.' The dangerous age for a youth is the period when he i.s reaching ado- lescence and early maturity. .Statis- tics prove this. In England & Wales forly-two per cent, of all persons found guilty of indictable crimes last year were under tweiity-oiu". In the United States, according to depart- ment of Justice reports, two-thirds of all arrests for crime involve per- sons between fifteen and twenty-four and those I'J years old lead any other age group.

(Editor's Note: This week's article shows Just how graphology can help in solving personal problems. There is a message of hope In It for you, if you are worrying over some personal dif- ficulty. If It is merely a character de- lineation that you would like, you will find it of immense value. See the Invitation In the following article. .. A letter I received a few days ago from a young lady living in Toronto has given mo a good deal of pleasure, and, because It will show just how graphology can be extremely helpful In solving personal problems, I am reproducing It, In part, this week. It Is as follows. "Dear Mr.St. Clair: I was reading your column in which you advised a certain Toronto girl concerning her fiance. It was the first time I had ever read your column, and, as I read of this other girl's problem, I had the queerest feelig â€" for I might han-e been that "other girl." Hav- ing read it, I <iecided right there and then never to see my own boy friend again. Knowing where my duty lay, this problem had been worrying me for a long time, but notJiing could have driven it home so much and have made me see so clearly that I must end this friendship, for my own good as well as his_ as your article did A.<5 I write this, I feel so grate- ful to you, Mr. St. Clair, and I want to truly thank you from the bottom of my heart. But what kind of a person must I be'/ Before I met this boy, I tihought I knew myself. It's fun- ny, isn't it, how little we really know of ourselves?" This young iady, apart from prov- ing the personal value of graphology made another point when she said "It's funny how little we really know of ourselves." Not very long ago, a gentleman living in W'innipeg wrote to me asking me to analyse his own writing and that of his wife. He said that the domestic relations were ra- ther strained and both himself were very unha[ suit. He added that he I big wife was mainly at 1 though that If I were to alysis of her character, h show it to her. and thus a realisation of what she wTeck the marriage. Well, I analysed both ' instead of having to tell wife was to blame, I hac that he himself was nior party. He was inclined t eering; would brook al interference, and could other people's views if tl variance with his own. In this, he had quite a tem well visualise the scenes 1 when he was laying dov and could easily understa of harmony. The sequel came some when I received another him, to which his wife at script. He had been so my delineation of his cha he was beginning to ton somewhat, and his wife for creating a condition believed, would lead to s mouious home life.

Anti-'Flu Workers al the British Natii^nal Institute for .Medical Research dis- covered recently that mice can catch influeii/.a. Having first administer- ed ether to the rodents to make them unconscious, they drojiped a virus containing influen'/.a germs in- to their nostrils; the mice sniffed it up and contracted the disease. Fur- ther experiments in passing the in- fluenze from mouse to mouse proved that the infection was contagious and not merely a chance result. The doctors also succeeded in preparing an antiserum which rendered other mice imnuine from the infection. Similar experiments have (irevi- ously been conducted upon ferrets, but as mire are less expensive and more easily handled this new dis- I covery to have far-reaching results. j It is hoped that it will eventually lead to the development of a suc- cessful aiiti-inlluonze serum f)r hu- I ninn beings.
