Are you rearing a paranoiac?
Recently the newspapers have given
to' the public, which because of their
octal position and th halo of great
wealth that top '
them, U Interest
ing, tiding of the
latest outbreak of
two men afflicted
v)th paranoia. It
aounda rerjr dread
ful and readers
are apt to shake
their heads, look
awed and begin to
talk, of the strange
ways of Provi
dence, at they lay
down their papers
and prepare for the
day 'a work.
Poor, old, much
' bearing, much
abused Providence, Tn thla cane Provi
dence, upon which lasy mtndi heap all
the blame for everything unwelcome that
happens, la not guilty! These parenotacs
are merely spoiled boys, grown into In
tolerable men. . .
" It Isn't, the fault of men, but their
parent Hate you a child that screams
when he isn't allowed to tease the cat?
Or kicks when he is Hot permitted to
stick his finger Into the pie? He. is a
paranoiac in the bud and it is your duty
to nip him. -
J So called 1 ungovernable rages. Inor
dinate vanity, unscrupulous ambTDon, are
all symptoms Of paranoia. If allowed to
go to their bead they dash -wildly on as a
colt runs away with a cart. -
And unless a wise hand seizes the
rheckreln the result will be the same In
both oases. The eolt will kick he cart
to pieces and the unreined traits will
hake haroc of the life that Is their play
ground. . ,
lt your child hare his or her own wayr
whether that may bo good or bad, parent,
and you may be raising a paranoiac that
will annoy the community and be a heavy
bnrden upon the state.
I know bath of these pananoiacs, one
tC them very well. When he "has his
own way" he Is as gentlo as a cooing
' dove, hut If anyone "crosses him" he bj
haves as a lunatic which he Is. ' He bet
'lows, ho bangs the table, with a powerful
fist, ha talks loudly and at random, he
Is argumentative and abusive. It was a
happy Inspiration of some one who desig
nated a jail as a cooler. "This man needs
a long season in the cooler." Everyone
whose acts disturbs the peace of the
community and should have a long season
of "cooling."
The other cuts the queer capers of a
king with , a paper crown, rules jot. a
. realm , of Imagination. His " poor, scrarn
WaUrlralns .conceive, himself to belcie
otto-' universe. ,. ,f
The precious pair have many traits In
common. They I make and unmake de
cisions a hundred times a day. They veer
and tack and bob and float as a derelict I
ship.' By their tacklngs and veerings and
bobbings and floating, they cause an
guish to their families and distress to all
rwho are unfortunate enough to know
them.
And tha pity and moral of It is that all
this human waste could have been pre
vented. A firm hand on the bridle of
these human colts would have guided
them Into safe and reasonable paths. If
they had been trained to think of others
they would not now be presenting piteous
spectacles for the sight' of the reading
world. If they had been taught to see
things in their proper proportion they
would not now he seeing them as a cu
bist sees lightning. The spoiled child
imagines himself the most. Important per
son In the world- An alienist defines the
paranotao as a person with "delusions of
grandeur." The spoiled child l the cause.
Tha paranoiac is Ihe .effect.
Don't spoil your child. Tou are spoiling

Don't you reckon they would have stretched their blue and brown eyes

while I watched and found a picture In It all, that there is an old fa bio

but I don't know if she cares for mo. I
know her about seven weeks; shs is 18
years old. I am 23; have a good trade,

smoke nor drink. EM1U
Inquire into the reason for this girl's
conduct. Possrbly site does not care for

ANXIOUS.
Don't Interfere' In your brother's love
affair. Tou would probably succeed
warely in making him unhsppy and sus
picious and in estranging some of his af
fection from you. Even if she does not
act as you think shs should, her cou
duct msy be perfectly satisfactory to
your brother. The only thing you can
do la to tell her you have hear J a rumor
about her flirtations snd that you hope
for your brother's sake she Is more loyal
than gossip indicates.

CHAPTER It
Ned Warner, standing diagonally aeroes
from the Hotel Daniel, where he could
watch, both the front and1 the side en
trances, saw . three short, thick men
come single file up the side street
and stop In front of the main entrance.
Shanks Modes had felt strangely listless
and forlorn these last fuw minutes, for
there was nothing doing inside or out.
Suddenly the three short, thick detectives
rounded the corner, and, gee, they were
slinking! The world was once mora a
bright and happy place for Shanks. -
Say. kid," husked the shortest' and
the thickest it was none otllex than Bill
Wolf ''have you lamped a lengthy gink
around here with whittled black thin
chlllae?" "
That observant young person "of the
world began at the beginning, but he was
so minute of detail that he bad not yet
leached the middle when Dili Wolf, look
ing through the plate glass windows of
the hotel Daniel,. said "Sh!" and drew
lus two assistant detectives outof the
range of poor Bhanks JlcOee's, quivering
ears, and the three sstute' hounds of the
law put their heads together in excited
conference. Then Bill Wolf,- In his 'best
pose of a man who wss waiting for
somebody and didn't expect him to come,
went Into the hotel.
Tbe Moore Uroousini) drew up, and Ned
went over to Join the quartette, Helen
the way to the desk and confronted tho
unemotional eye of the clerk. - ' -
"Tills l the fsther and mother of the
young v.cman whose maid called her
with her clothing. We do not know what
name she used In registering, but I know
thai my wife is In this house, and if we
don't get' her I'll rsise trouble."
"I'll produce the women at once, tne
cluerk screed. "But if there's going to
be a rumpus it'll have to be on the side
walk and on tbe other side of the street."
He called for 44. He called again.
There was no answer. Tbe room was
searched.
It was empty.
Sammy, tha boy with ths angelic smile
and the blue eyes and the white teeth.
was the finest liar In the noted, llo bad
cad a quarter and one of her compelling
smiles from June and a glance from her
lovely eyee, and he had run them down
through the basement and tit the rear
servants' entrance and had told tbem a
place to a where no one. would ever
find them. ., , .
Cone! Tbe sis shocked searchers for
the runaway bride hurried "Downstairs
Just as Honorla Blye slapped In, followed
by Bllnky Peters and Sneaky Tavls..
"Where Is he?" screeched Mrk. Blye.
Bill Wolf , advanced, to do his happy
duty. , - '
"There he Is, lady!" he shouted tri
umphantly while Bllnky Peters snd
Sneaky. Tavis slunk-up, one on each sido
of the culprit. "Nab him, boys!"
"Won Dleu!" cried the culprit as the
four fat paws of Bllnky Peters and
Sneaky Tavls clapped down on his arms.
The rest of the objection was an incom
prehensible polyglot jumble as, shrieking
his Indignation, the black bearded French
roan strove to wrench himself free. ,
"Is that tha man you meant T' hissed
Honoria.,
"That ain't the guy!" yelled Shanks
MoQee. who was willing to bo kicked out
now. "Gilbert Blye si Inked In here after
the beautiful goil and ducked Into the
subway when dts sport gives him the
run! Gee!"
"This Is the limit!" declared the clerk
to one and all as strong porters and
Sgile bell hops headed Ills wsy. "Oet 'em
out. Mike!"
Quite a little crowd hsd collected when
Suddenly a policeman appeared from
around a comer and dispersed the mob,
Including Honorla.
That vigorous lady had. barely turned
the corner, lieading for the avenue, when
a brilliantly lighted,- luxurious) limousine
stopped in front of the Hotel Daniel.
shanks fcfoGee's eyes began to stretch
aa he saw the occupants, and he whirled
tn a complete circle In his eflforta tn
locale without the loss of a second BUI
Wolf and Itllnky Peters and Sneaky
Tavls. They were trudging up the street
in single file, heads down, hands in
pockets. Even Bllnky Peters TTed lost
Interest In the stars. Ths smacking foo(
stepe of kanks McOee aroused them.
"Gee!" exploded Shsnks. "Crlpes! Gil
bert Blye has doubled back with another
swell Jane!' Beat It to the Daniel! . And
one of .youse hotfoot It after ths electric
showcase and 'gel the old woman! .' Gee!"
Wolf turned a commanding eve on
Tavls. . . j
"Hit'er up!" 'he ordered. j
Sneaky drew a long, Jeiking breath and
pulled his belt around him. cast a despair-)
ing look up the side street where the lit--tie
electric ws twinkling, took the cen-i
r-ter of the car track and began to labor-
lously "hit 'er up.;'
In the meantime Gilbert - Blye and
Tommy Thomas hsd walked confldenly
up to the desk The clerk without the
flicker of an eyelid bent forward politely,
"Is Mr a J. a. Day stopping here?" In
quired Blye, with great suavity.
"No: the lady. is gone."
"Gone," protested Blys and leaned for
ward te look over tha register. "Why,
she onty came In about an hour or so
ago. Sh Is"
"Now, don't tell me who she Is. 1
don't know whose wife the lsdy may be,
and I don't want to know. She's gone!'

Many epidemics of disease in cities are daily
being traced to the milk supply.- Germs thrive in
milk. , They thrive in milk that has been pasteur-.
i2ed as well as in unpasteurized nilk.
Chicago Health Bulletin No. 8 says that ten cases
of typhoid fever were traced to one milk-wagon driver
who stayed at work after he felt sick. This driver
wiped the top of each milk bottle with a piece of
cheesecloth and so spread the disease.
It's not enough to have milk start pure for your kitchen.
For you to be protected it must be pure when it reaches you.
Pasteurization of milk on the dairy farm is good so far
as it goes, but all dangers in milk are not overcome by
that process. There are still the exposures to contamina
tion in bottling, handling and delivenng the milk.
Your surest protection from the dangers of impure
milk lies in . '
