A nervous wreck from the excitement and strain of London's gay life, she is taken by her aunt, Mrs. Gladwyn, to a fatuous a r, specialist's office, The physician or- ders her to th'e country. for a long rest. Slie rebels, but the doctor is handsome and sympathetic. She. l;arns that he is not the great pian himself but an assistant, Dr. Rath- bone. "God made the country and man made the town," he tells her, and she agrees to gal, to a rural re-• treat. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY "And where does he suggest .send- ing you?" "On Dartmoor, to a cottage where I can go about without shoes and stockings and get sunburnt." "Weil, are you going to take 'his advice?" Diana giggled. "He told me to go to-morrow—or to -night, if possible, `and take you with me, Mrs. Gladwyn sat bolt upright. `'The man's mad," she declared in dignantly. Diana reflected, thinking of 'Rath- bone a little wistfully, • He he'dseemedsuch a particularly sane person, in spite of his blunt manner, and yet she knew she had tai intention of following his advice. Dennis• had'tried anger, wpunded dignity, and finally cajolery, hut Iinda had been immune to them all. "I'm not quarreling with you," she said calmly, "I don't think I'm even angry with you, because I know'yogi can't help the way you • have been brought up. Yon ought to be able to new, 1 suppose, but I can see it's int possible, so Chase made this 'ar- rangement for both our sakes, and you will be quite free to go your way, and I shall go mine:" • Liana was difficult; she loved him., and she wanted to be his wife—a• most unreasonable desire. Other fellows had their love affairs without the knowledge of their wives but there Diana was absurdly diffi- cult. It must be all or nothing; she had said that scores of times, and they had quarreled over,it and. said good- bye forever, only to find they could not live without one another. And now here they were again, back on.the old ground, with, nothing decided. The car stopped, and Diana' roused herself with a little laugh of apology. They went through the big door. and were whirled upstairs in the lift. It was as she entered the room with its shaded, lights and dainty ap- pointments that Diana sud'ilenly re- membered that this flat belonged to. Linda. There were a• hundred signs of her everywhere; it almost seemed as if her shadow sat in a corner of the big cushioned divan, laughing at them in her inimitable ,way. She felt his arms around her, drawing her close to him . and with a. return of the passion he always seemed to awake in her, she turned and clung to him. "I'm not going to -night, anyway," he said. "I'm going out to dinner." "You look mare fit for bed," was ler aunt's retort, but she felt reliev- d; the mention of dinner made her lore hopeful. She did not want to go out -at east, half of her did not want to go, hat urisrable'sickly physical part .01 er that seemed to cry out only for est and :deep; but the other part of vr, her beat -4p and brain, was on fire _'r the moment, when she would be gain with the only person in all the rorld tt•ho mattered to her, Two days since she had seen him— ternal days, year long. It was for him she•had stayed in -wn—in order :to be near hien while ie wife was away, and in spite of• ail er eager anticipation she had got cry little happiness out of their days ugether, He was difficult and exacting, and n Tier nervous state of health she felt nable to cope with a situation that as rapidlygrowing out of hand. 'l'o-night they were going: to dine t his flat, . CHAPTER. II Driving away' in the car with Dea- l. Waterman,. Diana ttiut' once again. it ;r ily , conscious of her weakness nd 1.;s'itucle. An only son of extravagant people. ho had died leaving him with noth- it; hat' a croft of debts; he had nmrr- ied Linda I)art°soe, a rich girl who arl br:ee blinded by her love frrr hint his ;elfishness and uselessness. llut she .was no fool, and once she ed reep:A.7*( fi on the shock :of dis- lusionrnent, 'she' had set herself tin mile and "remain friends with a bus - and whom she- still_ loved. She never questioned Mtn about his lode of living, or objected to his iendsltips, and the nearest approach iey had ever had to a quarrel had eon over money clatters, when she tcc1 calmly told him that her banking • count was no longer at his dispos- I•le'would receive an allowance she aid with a friendlysmile; .her solid.' ars would attend t it but h , t he must *et) within 7 ttw limits, and.t further obis � would be settled for him. When Dennis tried to take her wrap she resisted. "I wish .I hadn't come." "What nonsense." He' kissed her hands and her soft• throat "You're tired. 1'11 min; you a cocktail. You'll ! feel better directly." He bent and kissed her. "Now, drink .this and see if it doesn't put new life into you." She sipped it and put the glass down on a table at her elbow, "1 suppose •you think I'm horribly cheap," she said.. slowly. "I think you're adorable." She considered that. ''lint adorable things can be cheap," she said pain- fully after a moment, There was a discreet tap .at the door, and Dennis sprang up, and went Over to the cocktail table again. "tome'in," • "Dinner is served, sir." They went into the dining room, Linda's dieing room, Diana thought with a little shiver, and when they were. served. Dennis sent the maids away. "Do you mind?" he asked. "We can't talk if they stay." Diana had made a pretense'of eat - leg, but now that the servants' watch fel eyes Were no longer thereshe gave it up .and leaned back in her chair. "What's going to become of us, Dennis?" nnis?" she' asked, He did not --answer for a nionient, and when `a't last he :spoke ,he 'care- fuliy avoided looking at her, "T brought you here to talk about that." ' • "Ohl" A little draft of hope. struck her heart again, "Do you mean- --will Linda; „ "Linda will never divorce mc.' She stood up, holding' the 'back of her chair for a moment with an over wbetrning sense of weakness; then she. went. before him , bach to the, room with its shaded lights and cur- tains undrawn against the sWnrCr' rright;; Shef" t nC ,l . his arms around her, draw- ing her close to him, and with a res tarn of the peeeirm 1 .. he 'frad. always .wall.., serine to "t ., 'e d r7tet i . 1 she turned; surdcltin u �• to hint. n".Don't - let them send the away from you, Derutis. • Don't let them send me away. I love you so much -=So much." "And I love' you too, nay dear, you know that." . "Then let me take y,eu away. Isn't this our moment? With Linda abroad "Oh ... Linda—" the said•with a little shiv.er.: '• He took no notice, but went on rapdily, taking advantage of her ino- rnentary softening • "We can go this week—why not tomorrow? I can _aneet you some- where outside London. Think of the joy it Will be, my dear. Just yoti and I together." "Arid when we cone back?" she asked hopelessly. "We shall have to cerise back, of course."k He kissed her hair, "Why look, ahead, my dear. In't the present enough? And it won't .be the last,; the only time. We shall often be 'able to go away together again. Won't it be better than this, anyway? We 4eem to spend our lives now saying goodbye." He turned her face up to his and kissed her lips. Say yes, my darling." She closed her eyes before the pas- sion in his; she seemed to have no will left, no power of 'resistance; she was so tired of fighting. What did anything matter -as long as she did not utterly lose him? • "Yes .... .yes • . , yes." she whis- pered. 'You shall never regret it. All my life—" He broke off, his arms fall- ing .from her. There were voices in the hallway outside, a .woman's voice, laughing and amused, and one of the maids,. concerned, flustered. Dennis stdod motionless his head turned towards the door; his face white. CHAPTER III "It's Linda," he said hoarsely. Linda came into the room smiling and cheery. She looked the picture of health and was charmingly dressed in a cool summer frock of black and i white with a shady hat. She pulled the .curtains back and flung- the casement wide, then she turned and,looked at her husband. '"I hope yd'u've been entertaining Diana properly," she said. "And may I have a drink?,: Soine thing long, with plenty of ice." Dennis turned to the side table and began mixing a drink with hands that were not quite steady. "I wish you'd let me know you were cousing,". he said, "I'd have met 'yeti at Victoria." Linda laughed. "How sweet of you --Blit I was gitite''all right. Tony Jevons came over on the same boat, and he looked after me. ' Have you a cigarette?" She flung her hat carelessly down an the couch, smoothing her glossy hair carefully. "Are you two going on some where?" she asked. "Because if you are, don't mind one. I shall have heaps to do --there's a pile of letters waiting for me in the hall" Dennis gave.he a cigarette and lit atzaltRat Thursday, Mallch Z4th, 1932: it far_ her, "As a matter of fact, 'We were go- ing on to join some people at the Savoy," he said, carefully avoiding .. her eyes' "Llot as you are:lte,re—" "As I' ane, here You are quite pre, pared to do the polite thing and stay et home, is that it? My dear boy,, don't be absurd'. 1 should hate to dsi- appoint Diana; too, though T must say site. looks more as if sheought to be in bed than sitting up till the early hours." Diana roused herself with an effort the 'het color 'rushing to her face. "I'm quite well. A little tired, per- haps, but it seems a shame to leave you directly you come home." Linda finished her drink and •set the glass down on the tole: "Ought- n't b " C)ut, - tt n't you two' to be.going—or isn't ten o'clock late to join a party??" Diana stood up, "I reallydon't care a bit about.tlie dance, she said. "Let us call it off,. Dennis, shall we?" But Linda would not hear of such a thing. "Of course you mustgo. I insist. You make me feel sorry I carne. hone. Dennis, insist that she goes." Dennis shrugged his shoulders; "It's for you to say, my dear. You know if . you want me to stay—" "But I don't want you to stay. Di- ana, go ,to my room, and put some color in your cheeks, you look like a ghost. I just want to talk to Den- nis for a moment." Diana hesitated: She was hating { this woman for :her friendliness and I self-control, . envying her glowing health; hating her unreasonably, no doubt, and yet site had hardly known holy to bear herself 'since the mement Dennis went forward to_ kiss his wife. "I really dot*care if we go or not," .she said with .an effort. "It will be frightfully hot in the Savoy, s anyway." "Run away," Linda. said.. She shoo- ed her playfully to the .door, closing ;t it after 'Iter. Then she turned to her s husband.. s "What's the matter with that child?"she asked, , "The matter?". Dennis raised his brows. "What do you mean? ' She doesn't look as fit as you do, cer- tainly, but then she goes the pace too much. You can't keep her still; she's a mass''of nerves." "And is that your fault?" his wife asked quietly. • "My fault? My dear Linda—what on earth do -you mean?" • "Don't let's pretend, Dennis. Yost snow quite well what I mean, You've ecu snaking love to her for months. I'm not blaming you any more than I ani her :any woman is a fool who lets' a married man makelove to her; hut I'en sorry for her because she's not so experienced as you are. It's not playing'fair. I suppose she wants you to marry her, is that it?"

Not a feet/ cases of measles, However are complicated by pneumonia an other infections with grave result, leading to death in such a number o cases that measles must be given Ser ious attention. During the first year of.. life, meas les is particularly dangersous, th percentage of cases dying being man times in' excessk of the death 'rate in the older age groups. Parents should understand very definitely that, un- der five years of age, and more es pecially under two years, measles. i a much more serious menace to th life of their child than it is"after th fifth year. The practical application of this knowledge should lead .then to take additional precautions in or der to protect their young child, and, in the event of his contracting the disease, to care for the case as a ser- ious one, Cases of niealsles are often cone traded early in life' just because rea- sonable care is not taken, There are till parents,- who, not knowing how dangerous mealses is, allow their young children to be exposed with he idea that they must have measles anre'time and, consequently, that the goner it is over the better. They dis regard entirely the much greater dan- ger of mealses contracted in early life as compared with its occurrece in later years. d d s f e y d s e e n Ib POULTRY HAND- BOOKS ARE FREE TO FARMERS 'Winter od•.the .farm 'is essentially a time of stock -taking, of cleaning up the details of 'one year's operation: and of preparing for the next, It is a time too, when the farmer can find tirne to think and to study his busi- ness problems.

Serum is the'fui l 1 1 c part t ofit,h e blood. The 'person who has recover- ed from Measles has in his blood cer- tain substances which be produced to overcome the disease. If some of this individual's blood is' taken and injected into the child who has been exposed to measles, the protection. against the disease is transferred to the child. The best'or ;strongest serum is that' which is taken from patients who have recently reovered from {neasles, and it is called measles convalescent serui'n. If ,such serum is not available then the blood' of adults is used. Practically every adult has had meas- les, and so, in tate blood of most ad- ults, there will be some of the sub- stances which protect against meas- les. The serum must be given within five days of exposure .11 measles is to be prevented, Given on the fifth or sixth day, it will, likely modify the. attack, The p;otection given is ,only temporary and does not last for more than a few weeks. The great value of the serum treat- ment is to' very young children, due- . ing the years when, as we have point- ed out, measles is so frequently fatal. Also, the scrttni is used ,,to advant- age to protect the child who` is not.. in good health 'and in whom an at tack of meales• would likely be most serious.
