ALL DUE TO MALNUTRITION
Various Dlseaies of Infancy and
Childhood That Can Be Traced to
Undernourishment
Practically all varieties of malnutri
tion occurring during Infancy and
early childhood tend to terminate In
rickets, a dlseaso characterized by
softening of tho bones and consequent
deformity. Tho essential feature of
rickets, says Dr. E, Prltclmrd In the
British Medical Journal, Is tho want of
calcification or mineralization of de
veloping bone, and this, In Its turn, Is
duo to tho existence of requirements
for calcium, which for the time being
are moro urgent than those of develop
ing bono. Thcso urgent requirements
are the necessity for neutralizing ncld
bodies In the blood; In other words,
to neutralize or compensate an exist
ing acidosis. Doctor Prltclmrd argues
that nil chronic conditions of malnutri
tion, of whatever kind or from whatso
ever cause arising, llnally tennlnato In
on acidosis u 1 1 of which means that
children who do not get proper nour
ishment arc hi a fair way to become
deformed.

Labyrinth Constructed Some 3,500
Years Ago Was a Structure
of Colossal Size.
King Minos, with tils labyrinth on
the island of Crete, Is generally sup
posed to have been tho originator of
the maze idea ; but Egypt has a laby
rlnth, too, nnd Egypt manages to hold
the record for antiquity In almost ev
erything, labyrinths Included.
This Egyptian labyrinth Is :i.!00
yenrs old, It Is merely a chaotic mass
of rocks piled up in tho debert a few
miles out of Medlnet. The outlines of
the wnlls merge dimly here and there
from tho ruins, and from these out
lines, nnd the carvings on the stones,
Egyptologists deduce that the laby
rinth was built by a certain King
Lnbnrys. who was more popularly
known as Amenemhnt III.
The structure was COO by COO feet.
It contained 11,000 rooms, half above
ground, half below. Remember that
the largest hotel In our present day
world boasts about that number of
rooms on a dozen Honrs and covers n
city square, and some Idea of the size
of tho two-story labyrinth can be
gained.
Nobody has figured out yet why King
Amenemhnt built this enormous pal
nco or tomb. In the lower story, his
tory says, the sarred crocodiles and
kings were burled, whllo the upper
floor was, n few centuries nftcr King
Amenemhnt's time, used as n sent of
government.
The labyrinth was a wonderful
place, one of tho most wonderful In
Egypt, If our Ideas of It are correct,
and Its greatness was its downfall.
Tho citizens of a nonr-by town, who
worshiped tho Ichneumon, resented
the sacred crocodiles of tho labyrinth
And so they made an nttnek upon ono
of King Amencmhat'H successors and
reduced tho largest structuro in Egypt
to n ruin.
THE WINDOW LADY

Of
house, close up to the next building. It
wns ahvnys quite dark, even In daylight.
Laura Cocroft leaned her head upon
her hand.
She had little time to make new
friends. She had little money with
wheh to enjoy herself. When she
walked In the park she actually looked
longingly at the kiddles riding In the
awnn boats; u thing she had never
done, smrill as It seemed, nnd childish
tho pastime. It was always save, save.
It was growing very dusky In the lit
tle room. After a meager supper the
girl pulled down the shnde nt the
window and began sorting her work by
a feeble dickering gas light. It was
eleven o'clock before she finished
tired and discouraged; with eyes heavy
nnd head weary. ,
It might have comforted her n little
had she known of the many furtive
glances her window neighbor, AI Mur
dock, hud cast across the opening at
her lowered curtain. He had caught a
view of her at work, silhouetted on the
curtain.
"Poor girl I She doesn't seem to have
many good times. Then that old Jail
of a room must be fearfully dingy," he
reflected, turning away from his watch
tower.
The girl, all unconscious of a sym
pathy that would hnve warmed her
heart, worked on.
"It's a holiday tomorrow," she
mused, relief lighting up a little the
pretty eyes. "There'll be no nlarra
to wnken me, that's one comfort.
Guess, nftcr breakfust and my work,
I'll take my book and lunch nnd spetid
the day In the park. I'll watch the
kiddles and envy them."
Now It happened that Just at this
time Al Murdock was at peace with all
the world, nnd nt the same time tilled
with sudden pbllunthropy from the
fact of a raise In his salary.
"I'll stroll over to the park tomorrow
and take some of the poor kiddles for a
sail In the swan bonts," he declared.
Later his energetic tread sounded
sburply on the brond stone pathwny
across the Common.
"I'll be a kid Just for today. Wonder
what the fellows would say to see me?

Farmers' Checking Accounts
A checking account Is a business nec

and other, sources. Every check drawn
against these funds is a legal receipt.
In harvest, feeding, planting season

She was a little bit of a thing, not
moro thnn four feet ten In height, nnd
she had been ndopted as the olllce inns-
cot from the dny of her nrrlval. She
was a capable worker, however, and
very soon mnde herself respected for
her "gray matter" among the large
staff of clerks In the big ofllce of
Wheeler & Co.. architects.
A too-famlllar office boy had smil
ingly saluted her as "Habe" on her sec
ond morning In the olflcc, but her
freezlngly disdainful reply hnd put
an vnd to that Immediately. However,
after she had been there some time, It
was discovered that she hnd a great
fondness for peanuts "Peanut," she
therefore became to the entire olllce,
nnd Peanut she remained to the end
of the chapter.
It wns a rulny, slushy morning nnd
Peanut, almost late, mnde n vain ef
fort to put her umbrella on top of her
locker to dry.
Guess you need some help, child,"
said a cheery masculine voice behind
her, nnd Pennut stnrtled by unexpect
ed sound, wheeled around sharply.
The old locker, at best none too steady,
lurched forward and crashed to the
floor.
With a warning cry, the man leaped
forward, and with ono nrm shooting
out, sent Pennut sprawling nnd safely
out of harm's way. Not so fortunate,
her rescuer, however, for the heavy
locker, as It fell, caught him before he
could get out of the way, and sent him
to tho floor, his leg pinned fast.
"Oh, please, please lie still," she
begged, "and I'll try to get you out,"
nnd In spite of his pnln tho young
man's eyes twinkled for the locker
wns like a mountain beside the girl.
"Guess you'll never move thnt thing,"
he said ; "but I'll be quiet, and you run
downstairs and get some one up here
to help." And Peanut rushed away.
It proved to be nothing worse thnn a
wrenched ankle that resulted from the
accident. It was a very subdued Pea
nut who clicked nt her typewriter keys
all that morning, and although the
news of the accident hnd spread like
wildfire all over the ofllce, no one as
yet had been able to learn the name
of the hero.

planned his residence on so Inrge

echoes of human dramas, Involving

Whew I If there Isn't my Lady of tho

Al slyly kicked a stone from the
path. The girl looked up with recognl
tlon In her glance.
They aren't your pupils, Lady of
the Window?" questioned the young
man.
"No, oh, no; I pitied them their
longing looks toward the bonts. A con
genial feeling prompted me," she
smiled.
"I say, that's too bad," pitied Al.
"Lady, there Is n wnn boat return
Ing. Will you nnd your retinue favor

Al bowed low. his face one broad

"My, yes!" they all chimed.
The little girl piped up:
"The lady will 'm our princess and
you'll be the p-In:e. Us four 'II bo

lie stowed tne children on the rear
seat retaining Lnura for htmself.
With many "obs" from the little ones
they circled the pond and little islnnds
of sund and shrubs.
Al felt repaid by the warm glow at
his heart. He escorted Laura to her
very door.
"Won repeat the good time some
dny. Shall we?" he questioned.
"You nro most kind to a lone girl.
Yes, I shnll dearly love to go," she re
plied candidly.
It proved but the beginning of better
times for tho girl. Kven the drudgery
of night work wns lightened by a
vision of merry eyes gleaming ncross
her papers.
Instead of glances across the open
ing there were talks and smiles on tho
Inside of Laura's room. Al even
helped her with her papers.
One night Laura's house of cards
foil her pleasant dream was over for
as she raised her curtain sho saw
Bhadowed on tho opposite window two
forms embracing each other and acta
ally kissing! A stylish girl nt that
She lowered the curtain nnd dropped
Into n chair.
She sat there a while then went sad
ly to bed.
"I've had my salary raised again,
dear Lady of the Window," confided
Al, ono ovenlng long after. They were
such close friends now.
"I saw the dearest bungalow today.
It was Inviting a young couple's pre
once. Can you imagine for'whom it is
waiting?"
"Thero Isn't a dark room In It. I
asked them to hold It until tomorrow.
Shnll 1 engage It?"
"For for you and thu other Lady
of Your Window?"- sho trombled. "I
I think it would bo best rooms are
so scarce, you know, especially sunny
ones."
"There's no other Lady of the Wltv
dow but you thero never will be,
dear," assured the young mnn.
"Hut once I saw tho shadow of
of you and another girl, nnd you
you " sho faltered and stopped.
Tho young man burst Into a laugh
of relief. "Why. that's my sister I
hadn't seon her since sho was married
ami left us.
"Shall T hold the bungalow for usl"
Laura, with tihtnlug eyes, nodded
assent.
nround here before," confided Pennut
to the other girls In her section, "but
I'm going into Mr. Wheeler's room at
noon to Inquire about him. I feel that
it's my duty."
So she rapped timidly at her em
ployor's office door, -and In response
to a low-voiced "Come In," Peanut en
tered.
She stopped short In amazement nt
the sight which met her eyes. There
sat her rescuer of the morning, com
fortably leaning bnck In a big office
chair, smoking a cigar ids bandaged
foot resting on a low stool. Opposite
him sat Mr. Wheeler (regarded as a
most stern nnd unnpproachable man
by nil the olllce force) Just ns comfor
tably seated, and smoking Just ns con
tentedly. Peanut gazed from one to
the other, her confusion growing great
cr every moment, nnd sending a most
becoming flush Into her cheeks.
"I er I enme," she stammered.
"And I am very glnd you did " fin
lslied tho younger of the two men, smll
Ing. "Now, dnd, you enn properly In
troduce me to this young lady, whom
I handled somewhnt roughly this morn
Ing."
"Ahem, tills is Miss Mnrjorlo Pierce,
Ted, one of our most capable clerks,
Miss Pierce, this young man Is my son,
who thought to surprise me with a vis
It today and succeeded admirably."
"Ob, Mr. Wheeler, I am so sorry!"
exclaimed the girl earnestly; "It really
was all my fault, nnd It's too bad thnt
.vour son should have to suffer for
my stupidity."
"Why. dnd," said Ted, "I gnve poor
Miss Pierce such n push It nearly Innd
ed her In tho middle of next week."
"Yes, true enough," nnswered his fa
ther, with a twinkle In his usually
keen, gray eyes. "I believe I've heard
the name 'Pennut' In connection with
Miss Pierce." And Ted Wheeler's eyes
begnn to dance.
"Oh, Mr. Wheeler that's Just a nick
nnmo tho clrls gave rac I never
dreamed that you know about it."
"Well, Junior, I'm going downstairs
to get the machine nnd take you
home." said Wbeeler, senior. "I'll leave
Miss Pierce here to help you get ready
and I'll be back shortly." And he
left them.
"If you'll tell me where your hat and
coat are, I'll get them for you, Mr.
Wheeler," and the young man pointed
to a closet In tho corner of tho office.
Mnrjorlo 'brought them and silently
helped tho Junior Wheeler Into his ul
eter. He moved obediently as she
directed, so that sho could button It
ns lie sat In tho chair.
"You'd mnko n capital nurse. Miss
Pierce," he commented.
"Oh, but Mr. Wheeler, please let mo
do something for you whllo you nro nt
home. Can't I get you something to
help you pass tho time, so you won't
feel lonely?"
"Why, yes como to think of It, I
guess you enn. I'll speak to dad when
ho comes up, nnd nslc him to lend yon

"Me ! Why, what can I do for you nt

you possibly want of me?"
"Well," said tho young man, "I have

And before tho moaning in his eyes,
Mnrjorlo lied to the outer olllce.
