As Garrick and Dick strolled down the shore, it proved to be Glenn and three or four other fellows in various 'Stages of college ca eeve past or pre- sent. They wore class numerals or other marks on their bathing shirts. Glenn was the only one with a college letter—for five minutes of play in a 'game lost to Princeton. Buckley was a rather handsome lad in spite of his evident satisfaction with himself, tall, Slender, with a general impression, "I love the ladies and the ladies love mo" In spite of competition he was nton- apolizing Vira Gerard, A jet rhoelc of 4bobbed hair set off big liquid dark eyes, eyes that, if they were the win- dows of the soul, had a depth that was 'baffling even to the photographic lens, eyes that dominated her splendid fea- tures and gave her that today price- mess "camera face." A general laugh followed There was an uncertain motion. Ruth flared. "At least we can show Guy and Diek we're not so exclusive that we're ra- ters! I feel partly responsible for their being here. I raced then; on the road a d dared them to follow—and hero they are—eh, Glenn? Just this once, boys. They'll not bother us again. Pll ponsor them. Come an, Glenn smile a little and be nice." Ruth capered over to Lick, took him by the arm, and started up the beach, Guy followed with Vira, while Glenn 4llked. "I wish you had your bathing suit on, Dick. I'd enjoy a swim across the harbor with you this hot forenoon. She nodded vivaciously back at Gar- rick. Even if she were doinj a bit of hasty figuring on the why of their presence, thought Guy, the was per- fectly at ease, Her graceful limbs showed fascinating lines through the folds of the cape she had carelessly thrown over her. "No wonder Dick's frantic over her," he thought, "She's a dangerous combination" Still chatting, Ruth and Vira step- ped into the canoe with Dick and Guy, while the others plunged into the water and swam. They soon slipped alongside the houseboat with its gilt letters SEA VAMP.. Garriek realized as they mounted n the ladder that the marine engine had materially changed the old-time house- boat from a mere scow or barge with a low flat house on it moored in a bay or river and only with difficulty and expense towed from one place to an- other. Now the houseboat, like the "Sea Vamp" was really a fair-sized yacht. She was perhaps sixty feet long and. a most attractive craft with a hull yachty in appearance and of a type which could safely make long ,rune along the coast, a staunch, seaworthy boat—of course without the speed of a regularly designed yacht, but more than making up in comfort for those on board what was lost in speed. As they approached he had looked her over carefully. One of the first things he noted was that strung from two masts forward and astern was the aerial of a wireless. They clambered aboard and dragged up the canoe. At the stern they saw a stockily built man in sea togs mak- ing fast a dory, and taking out a rather complete set of fishing tackle and other duffle. "H'ye, Cap'n 1" greeted Glenn, shak- ing the water frons his eyes as he bounded on deck. "Any luck?" "That's Captain Brock," asided Ruth to Garrick. "We hire him to take charge of the 'Sea Vamp'." "Too early for snappers yet, Got a cou:, of fiat fish—and an eel." He taught sight of Guy and Dick and glowered under busby eyebrows. "Who are they?" he growled under his breath. "They're with me, Captain," ex- plained Ruth. "Mr. Garrick and Mr. Defoe, Captain Brock. Just a couple of friends who are interested in how I spend my time." "Well, so lou„ as it's time they are looking for, all right" Garrick could tot resist a startled second glance as, tucked away in the duffle with great care, he caught sight' of an electron tube, with filament and grid, precisely the latest type used in radio receiving. He nudged Dick, but Dick was equally quick, The fishing pole was equipped with a miniature aerial and he had noticed it. Neither betrayed either interest or the burning curiosity they felt as Brook clumped forward with his stuff, Why, when Brock was even fishing away from the "Sea Vamp," did he carry this compact wireless receiving sat? What station must he be always in touch with, or what message slid he expect that be must be listening in? "Excuse us. We'll go down below, Get the shaker and some ice and .. , you know. I guess we can entertain," trilled Vira, (To be cent'nued.) Awful Brown with fear is frantic Elis wife le filled with dread; They believe their darling son is Surely maimed or dead. "Suppose you know this is n pri- nate beach?" inquired one of the nnm- eraled youngsters as the two ap- proached. Guy smiled and nodded toward Vira and Glenn.

All stopped, however, as Ruth drew tear. She made a glorious picture.

Mer golden hair framed her sensitive features in an oura of sunlight. GET - saw with approval that Ruth had been strong minded enough to hold to iter curls during the days of bobbed hair. Could those laughing, frank eyes know of crime, of anything coarse? "You here, Dick?" she danced up to him. "Were you afraid to come alone?"

Those limbs become pulverized —inept. They lose their power and nsefnlness. That is but a natural law, It applies to every part of life. If we develop a line of thought, it will grow and become powerful. It may be a good or it may be a bad thought. Whatever strength we give it, it will grow even stronger. o, if we would become a master in lite, master of our self, master in of fairs, we've simply got to tell our mind what to do—and to see that it does it. Let your mind laze, and it will start to fail. Keep it busy, and it will ever want to keep being busy.

REVERENCE The possession of reverence marks the noblest and highest type of man- hood and womanhood: reverence for things consecrated by the homage of generations—for high objects, pure thoughts, and noble alms—for the great men of former times, hnd the high-minded workers amongst , our contemporaries Reverence is alike indispensable to the happiness of in- dividuals, of families, and of nations. Without it there can be no trust, no faith, no confidence, either in man or in God—neither social peace nor social progress.

Common coldsare caught in two ways -front other people, and tram our own method of living.

A•laxative should • he taken. At night take a• hot bath and as soon asyou have rubbed your- self thoroughly dry, get 'into bed egain, .taking, the very best of care that you do not catch a ohill. It Is well after a hot'hath to put several extra blankets on the bed, so that you may do what is commonly known as "sweating• the cold out of your sys- tem." This will be aided by a hot drink. It is a serious mistake to, blow one's nose too hard, because many people have caused the infection from a cold to spread to other parts of the head, like the ears. There aro many dangers which arise from a common cold. The first of these is influenza, because it in turn is apt to lead to many other serious impairments. Pneumonia, tubercul- osis, heart trouble, nose and throat afflictions, rheumatism, sinus trouble all have their origin in the "flu" on occasions. Many people who are deaf have lost their hearing through a common cold. There are a number of things which we can do to prevent colds. I will give you a list of them: (1) If your tonsils are diseased or your teeth are bad, or you have aden- oids, they should be removed. (2) Brush your teeth twice a day, because teeth which are diseased are frequently found to be at the root of chronic colds (3) Avoid getting your feet wet. Some people who have the interests of their health at heart keep an ex- tra pair of shoes and stockings at their place of work. Then if they get caught out without their rubbers, they can change. It is courting trou- ble to spend the whole day with wet feet. (4) Do not allow yourself to become run down. Get plenty of sleep, exer- elso regularly, drink plenty of water and eat nourishing, health building food, (5),Ksep the windows open. This applies to winter and summer. Every- one should sleep in a room where the air is fresh, (6) Watch the thermometer. Rooms that are overheated are the cause of more cOlcle than rooms that are -Under - heated. If the place where you work is not as -well ventilated as it should be, and there is nothing you can do to • ameliorate conditions( take a few minutes off now and then to go out• side and 1111 your lungs with fresh air. (7) Avoicl drastic changes .,of tern. perature If you have been perepir• ing, allow yourself, to cool off gradual• ly It is foolish to sit in the breeze or in front of an electric fan (8) Stay away- from infected pea. ple. When there is an epidemic, avoid crowds. (9) Wash your bands frequently, certainly before eating. (10) Wear clothing that helps you to avoid colds. In this'country it is beet to put on extra clothing when you are going out into 'the cold rather than wear heavy clothing such as think underwear, when you are in your office or home, DEEDS AND THOUGHTS Your self is made of what you do and what you say; but most of all of wbat you think. Yet we watch 0111, words and our deeds far' more care- fully. than our thoughts, DIFFERENCE "What difference does it make?" is a question that ought to be seriously considered when strange voices lure- us. • .
