That did not worry him greatly. There was still a lot of work to do in connection with his valve and in preparation of his paper on the Meriston Ray. Moreover, leisâ€" ure meant that he could spend long: hours with Scylla. \ wey‘e uy a your to get oper ghe train of calamities in which he had involved some of her leading citiâ€" zens. In the sequel, Mr. Corville Perkin achieved a complete disappearance, dodging the French Police with the same ease with which he had for so long deceived their English colâ€" Teagues. The cleaning up of the business affairs 6f Messrs. Perkin, Paramour and Perkin took many months and reâ€" vealed an astonishing record of fraud and conspiracy. Hardly any of those who had trusted Perkin but had cause now to regret it. It took the city of didn‘t go to bed at all. He was on the Calais boat this morning and his ticket had been taken out for Paris. That‘s all we know about him for the present, and we have been suspicious for him tor a matter of two years at least!" He shook his head disconsoâ€" lately before resuming: "Still I dareâ€" say we haven‘t finished with him yet. The French police sometimes do a good job of work, but you can‘t aiâ€" ways be sure of them." Valdamonte gone, the Inspector listened to Adam‘s account of the events of the previous evening. He histened with obvious interest, and in the end his only criticism was the natural one that in such matters it is always best to call the police. "If you‘d let us know before you set off like that," he exclaimed, "we‘d have laid Perkin by the heeis before he went to bed. As it was, he "‘Thank you," he replied. "I shail stay there toâ€"night,. and at dinner I trust I may have the company of all of you who have still so much to tell me and to whom I owe so much." He turned to Adam. "This scientific genâ€" tleman, Professor Sparrow is it not? Ah, Starling! Forgive me, both are elever birds. I wonder if it would be possible for you to convey to him my invitation also? From what you have already told me the party would not be complete without him." They recommended him to the Grand. "Tell them I sent you," addâ€" ed the Inspector. an old man and .required rest after so much exciting news. He carefully pocketed his recovered papers and enquired at which hotel he would stay. Once more Adam halfâ€"carried the Sparish gentleman, only this time it was downstairs and into the sittingâ€" room, which in the meantime had been put into a condition of order and brightness as if by a magic touch. The long story of the fight for the Spanish chairs was far from concludâ€" ed when there arrived the police ln-‘ spector with whom Adam had shared the investigations in Grail Street. Senor Valdamonte took his leave at this juncture, remarking that he was "You must hear the whole story, and I should like you to come downâ€" stairs and meet my daughter," invitâ€" ed Norval. % "He did." "And met an honest man, eh?" "He met one too courageous and too clever for him." Norval made a generous gesture towards Adam. "That‘s sheer nonsense, Senor Vaiâ€" damonte," exclaimed the embarrassed recipient of the compliment. "At least," he corrected himself, "there was one that was too clever. That was Professor Starling." ‘"There seems to have been a great many of you involved in the affair of my poor chairs." “)vmmfi‘q‘v“‘)\‘-‘m (Conclusion) "Dead?" _ echoed Valdamonte. "Then we will say no more than that he was a good man. I had to trust him, unfortunately. I had no one else and he had been in my service since a child. I have thought for a long time that it must have been his treachery that frustrated my escape.

But always, he told me, he had found a firm ally on the side of faith and honour, in a daughter determined that, come what might, the Valdaâ€" monte chairs should not be yielded up.

"I rise," said he, "to offer you the toast that has been in my heart before it had been allowed to rise to my lips, a toast that must have long been in the hearts of you all, the toast of my charming, but alas temâ€" por.*v, hostess. In my country we are .amous for our beautiful women, for worien whose hair is black to match their eyes. May I tell you that toâ€"day is the first time I have wished my, country might have produced a variation in which black hair is acâ€" companied by blue eyes that remind one of her blueâ€"black grape. â€" Then assuredly there would have been no country in the world that could have competed with our women." He paused until the embarassed applause of the others had subsided. * _ The ways of Madrid are not the ’ways of Menston. But Valdamonte, as host, behaved as he would have behaved had he beer entertaining a large and aristocratic company in the dining room of a Spanish mansion. He treated his guests with elaborate courtesy, and he proposed toasts. Having drunk the health of Norval, his faithful friend, he toyed for a time with his glass, and once again rose to his feet. Formal dinners are not frequently in the life of the city of Menston, and the courtly manners and ceremonial dignity of the host embrarassed his guests a little at first. But Starling was scarcely affected, and Seylla soon adapted herself to the situaâ€" tion. ‘ In the Grand Hotel one evening Senor _ Valdamonte entertained a party of four in a private room. Opâ€" posite to him Scylla, the only woâ€" man present took the place of hostess. On one side Adam sat between her and the Senor, while opposite him were Professor Starling© and Mr.‘ Norval.

One of our readers has suggested that the name of this town be changâ€" ed to Port Muskoka. â€" Gravenhurst Banner. Changing the name of this town (Gravenhurst) has again come up for discussion. A number of promâ€" inent citizens are in favor of the change, which, they declare will inâ€" crease the population, lessen taxaâ€" tion in new homes required and double the working staffs of our inâ€" dustries. It is pointed out by heads of our manufacturing firms that the name Gravenhurst is too closely connected with Sanitarium and that outside business interests resent the comparison to such an extent that their salesmen are continually conâ€" fronted with criticism of a very unâ€" pleasant nature. It has also been stated that wealthy people desirous of building expensive homes in this beautiful locality, unsurpassed on the continent, are giving the town the "goâ€"bye" simply because the name does not appeal to them. Movement To Change Name Of Gravenhurst "All this is of value when the counsel given is wise, symathetic and in conformity with the best in scientific, social and religious adâ€" vance," asserted Dr. Parker. "There is, however, some part of the marâ€" riage counsel which only the physâ€" ician with scientific krowledge and hcman tâ€"dertanding can pive most: effectively. _ Analyses of marital difficulties show that mental or eduâ€" cational, as well as physical maladâ€" justments are potent factors in famâ€" ily life. Many conflicts in later life are preventable in proper training and guidance of children and young people. In this training the physicâ€" ian, in coâ€"operation with the home, church and school, has a Cefinite part to play." "Although formal divorces were less frequent in the days when the physician served as community counâ€" sellor, _ still marital unhappiness existed," stated Dr. Parker, "Today the need for preâ€"marital and postâ€" marital councils is genearlly recogâ€" nized in the light of open failure of many marriage partnerships. Clergy, social _ workers _ and psychiatrists have come forward to meet â€" this need. Educators are slowly but surely joining in with plans for marâ€" riage instruction and advice. Doâ€" mestic relation courts and socially | minded judges are endeavoring to‘ reduce the number of broken homes. Speaking on the subject of the contribution of medicine and psyâ€" chiatry to marital counselling, Dr. Parker stated that the oldâ€"time genâ€" eral physician was the confident and counsellor of the young people and their elders on many difficult probâ€" lems.

A reaction takes place between it and the tissue injured by the burn‘ | â€" Death following burns is most |often due to poisons absorbed from the affected area, This is called "burn Toxaemia," The symtoms of |this poisoning may be present in less lbhan twelve hours. Although as a general rule, the toxity varies with the size of the area ivolved, one is unable to tell beforehand with cerâ€" tainity who will be come seriously‘ ill. Typically with "burn Toxaemia," the patient becomes drowsy. _ This drowsiness may go on to unconsciousâ€" ‘ness. Twitching of a part (arm or leg) may be noticed, This sometimes goes on to generalized convulsions. Nausea is an early symptom, and vomiting occurs soon, The temperaâ€" ture rises and in large burng some of the greatest clevations which are ever recorded in any disease, are present. If this combination of symâ€" toms progresses, a fatality results. If the burn is a severe one, the shock may sufficient to imperil life. In such cases attention should be paid only to its treatment, This conâ€" sists in keeping the patient warm, in ensuring rest by means of strong se. datives, and in giving plenty of fluids. If the shock is extremely serious, it is necessary to force fluids by giv. ing them into a vein, Blood of the same type as that of the patient mayJ also be given as a transfusion. The latter is the best fluid in severe cases. _ A burn by means 0: fire is less common than tbhat from hot fluids, but as a rule is much more serious, Playing with matches is the usual history in such cases. As children are irresponsible, parents should be continually on guard that the proper setting for such incidents is not preâ€" sent. The commonest story is one of ’sca]ding with hot fluids. It results chiefly from the carelessness of parâ€" ents, Hot water heads the list in this respect, followed very closely by hot coffee tea or milk. A child may trip over the electrical attachment of & coffee percolator and spill the boiling contents, This accident sounds very simple, but may result in many months of illness or death. 1 According to figures obtained from 34 states of the United States, beâ€" tween the years 1929 and 1931, 23% of accidental deaths, under five years of age, were Jue to burns, conflagraâ€" ’tlons excepted.

NERV ES A burn is a form of gangarene which usually results from excessive heat. It may also be the result of the action of chemicals or electricity, This form of accident is most comâ€" mon in children and it often leads to much suffering and occasionally death. By A. W. Farmer In Health Magazine If this stage of toxaemia, which ,may last from five to ten days is surâ€" vived, there are further perils, When 'the skin has been completely killed, complete healing will not take place ‘benath the Tannic acid covering, By the separation of this from the tissue beneath, an ulcer is formed. The raw area invariably has some infection associated with it. If this infection is severe, the patient may die, During this stage whe nthe Tannic acid coat. ing has been removed, an ulcer is present, antiseptic dressings are Apâ€" plied, Constantly repeated dressings over a long period of time, often deâ€" moralize a patient. When the raw area is a small one, healing can take place by growth of the skin from the sides, When the area *3 & large one, healing is hastened by means of skin grafting of different types, In every case scarring is left, and may be a prominent feature, The contracture of scar tissue may cause deformity and limitation of motion of joints. This type of deformity and limitation of motion can best be overcome by resorting to plastic surgery, The final stage of repair and contracture folâ€" lowing a deep burn is often & proâ€" longed one. Even the use of Tannic acid is not able to save the lives of all, Those who have oneâ€"half or more of the body surface affected invariably die. There are adjuncts to the treatment of the stage of toxaemia, such as the use of intravenous fuids and transâ€" fusions, Therefore it is better that all severe cases be taken to hospital where the proper facilities are preâ€" sent. It is performed by wiping the area firmly with dry gauze or gauze moiâ€" stened with a cleansing solution such as gasoline. the leatherâ€"like covering makes the ‘ most comfortable dressing which one may apply. The pain disappears raâ€" ’pidly, and if the burn is not a deep one, healing may take place under the Tannic coating, without necessit. ing any further dressings. Previous to its application the surface should be cleansed alnd all blisters opened and free tags of skin removed. This is not as painful a process as it sounds.

The acâ€" companying family tree crystalizes Dr. Berl‘s discoveries and theories, What we have bere is the most con. vincing theory that this commentaâ€" tor has seen to account for the forâ€" mation of natural hydracarbons (coal, oil, asphalt and natural gas) which always occur to ether and which are obviously relatef, oil were produced by chemical changes that occurred in collulose and other carbohydrates, It follows that brown coal, which consists of much lignin, can never be transform. ed into bituminous coal, as the textâ€" books teach us. nd oil in lignin.

";' that bituminous coal, asphait ond natural gas are the products of the decomposition of vegetation. But the process was misconceived. Collulos, is always associated with lignin, which is a nuisance to the paper manufacturer, And lignin was supposâ€" edby Dr. Reri‘s predecessors to b« the chemical mother not onlyâ€" of rown coal and lignite, but of bitum. inous coal as well. ’ The formation of cellulo e and carâ€" bohydrates (sugars are examples ) is one of the astounding miracles of nature. Sunlight, carbon dioxide (the gas that bubbles in beer and ginger ale) and water â€" these are the raw materials. With nothing more, nature creates vegetation in stagzgoer ng quantities. , Since the fish bypothesis is untenâ€" ab‘e, how is the formation Of petâ€" roleum to be explained? Professor E. Berl of the Carnegie Institute of Technology, Pittsburgh, finds all the materlal he wants in â€" vegetation. Long and painstaking research conâ€" virces him that not only was petrolâ€" eum formed from vegetation, but bituminous coal, asphait and natural gas as well, To prove his point he has actually mimicked nature in his laboratory, so far as that is possible on a small scale. Chemists as a whole are not enâ€" amored of this explanation. One rea. son is that the teeth and bones of fish have a way af remaining intact that does not speak we:l for what is «upposed to have happened to the flesh, It is hard, too, to account for the enormous quantities of fish required to make all the petâ€" roleum wihich has been pumped out of the earth and still remaing in great ’underground reservoirs. Some seek to overcome this dificulty by sup. posing that fish, clams and oysters were the victims of a colossal catas. trophe â€"something like the entrance of fresh water into sea water Or sea water into fresh water. Probably nine geo‘ogists out of ten still accept the Englerâ€"Hoefer hypoâ€" thesis 0" the origin of petroleum, According to this, vast quantities of fish, oysters, clams and other forms of marine life were somehow buried in the earih, where they decomposed and formed petroleum.
