BOWELS
Babies, botUc-fed or breast-fed.
With any tendency to be constipated,

crying, failure to gain, and other ills

just wfuit babies need to keep their
little bowels active, regular; keep

“Let me go, please. I don’t
want to see you that way, and
•ometlmes I’ve an idea there
are other people who don’t
want me to either.”
It caught him.
“Wha do you mean?”
“Sometimes I’ve been afraid
that other people know about
i our being together that night.
Maybe it’s just my conscience,*
but I’ve thought of that more
than you, I guess, because it
meant’ so much more to me
than it ever could to you.”
Instantly she understood
«he shouldn’t have said it, for
his arms drew her within their
unbreakable circle, and his
mouth crushed hers. Then he
drew back, striving to see her
In the night.
“Hanged if I knew about
that, Barbara. I’m no fresh
Infant, but you caught me the
minute I saw your eyes. I tell
you we started something, or
you did, with your frightened
eyes.”
The circle tightened again,
and his lips caressed her eyes
which closed. She couldn’t
resist him; she didn’t want to.
She despised herself, but she
couldn’t help herself. Dimly
she sensed the danged of her
Inability to see any future be
yond this too-complete mo
ment.
The approach must have
been stealthy not to arouse
them. Her first warning was a
rough hand on her arm, and
she oponed her eyes to see
Harvey’s dark bulk. He had
his other hand on Gray’s
shoulder, trying to push him
away, to seperate them.
“Go home, Bobble. I want to
talk to him. I’ll see you later.”
Gray released her. His right
hand clenched and drew back.
Barbara caught at his fingers,
whispering:
“Please, Gray—”
CHAPTER III
Esther after dinner met Mr.
Manvel in the hall.
“Observe the foul humor
our Gray’s in?”
Mr. Manvel peered.
"He seemed a touch grumpy.
Have you and he been battl
ing?”
With her exceptional pre
cision of movement she
motioned him to sit down and
draped herself across the arm
of his chair.
“Not me. I’m innocent as a
kitten, sir. I, didn’t scratch
even when accused me of get
ting away with crime.”
Mr. Manvel peered closer.
"What crime, my dear?”
She produced her meaing
less laugh.
“I didn’t answer back, I
didn’t strike back, when he
charged me with trying to
make people think I was as
deep as the sea, and that he
believed I was about'Aas deep
as I was thin, and that that
wasn’t giving me a great deal
In the way of wisdom.”
Mr. Manvel knew her too
well to be duped by her light
manner; what she had said
obviously troubled him.
"Why should he growl at
tveryone all through dinner?
Why should he go out of his
way to be rude to you, little
Esther?”
She had approached her
destination very cautiously;
her reply sounded flat and
empty.
"All I know is he saw some
one on the pond late this
afternoon, and he’s been a
ruffled bear ever since.”
His Insufficient eyes
■trained at her.
"Who could have on the
pond to put Gray’s back up?”
Her long fingers strayed
about his shoulders; her re
ply, came slowly, not mch
more than audibly.
The Unfortunate Farm Board.
From the Montreal Star.
Announcement that the United
States Federal Farm board does not
blend to ask Congress for any
further appropriations at the next
session will generally be accepted as
ftty conclusive evidence that thi«
kppy body is about finished with

“The local beauty I’ve heard
you and Steve talk about.
Her name’s Norcross, isn’t it?
I saw Gray hustle her to the
dark end of the pond.”
Her voice went lower.
“It wasn't quite dark, you
know.”
Mr. Manvel stod up and
restlessly paced a short course
in front of her. Undoubtedly
snatches of what Steve and
he had s»id about Barbar Nor
cross after the game slipped
disconcertingly through his
mind. “Gray couldn’t very
well help discovering that
Elmford holds an uncommonly
handsome young woman.”
“She isn’t the sort of person
one easily forgets.” “I don’t
know whether it’s something
reminiscent about her—” He
frowned. Hang it! What was
that faintly familiar quality
about the girl? “Last week
Gray didn’t let Roberts drive
the Elmford Chloe home.”
“Gray, banged up as he is,
slipped out of the house the
moment he’d found solitude
by pretending to sink on a bed
of pain.” “Oh, God! Don’t put
that flea in Caroline’s ear!”
Mr. Manvel paused in front
©f Esther, and his near-sighted
eyes appealed.
“You do see a lot, don’t
you?”
She nodded brightly.
“It’s my system to learn and
remember all I can about
people who Interest me—for
good or bad. You know how
fond I am of Gray, terribly
fond. So naturally I’d use my
eyes In his service.”
“What did you see, Esther?
For heaven’s sake let me know
the worst.”
Color that wasn’t paint
flashed across Esther’s cheeks,
and her lips for a moment
made a perfectly straight line;
then she relaxed and answered
with her empty laugh:
“Nothing, really. Never mind
that. The point is I don’t want
Gray getting in a Jam.”
He flung up his hands.
“Is it as bad as that? You
think he might get in a Jam
through this Norcross girl?”
She appeared to ponder.
“These Elmford people are
shockingly old-fashioned,
aren’t they? Mightn’t they
make some archiac gestures
if Gray became too compan
ionable with their local Helen?
I took him away for a few
whirls around the pond, and
I decided you ought to know
so you could tell him to keep
his eye on the traffic lights.”
Mr. Manvel was in a panic.
“I’d not dare. I tell you. little
Esther, you’re wrong. I’ll trust
to Gray’s common sense;
much as I hate to say it, I’ll
bank more on his utter sel
fishness. Gray knows where
he’s going every minute. He’ll
not get hismelf tied up in any
sentiment that would hurt
him.”
She insisted with cold firm
ness: “I thought you ought to
know. I think you ought to
fetch him up.”
Mr. Manvel’s panic grew.
“And Esther, dear, my house
is very old, and Caroline is
my only wife, and Gray is our
only child. If you give Caro
line a hint the roof will, come
off my house, and I will be
vulnerable to the most dread
ful weather; so promise like
a good girl not to mention it
to Caroline. Cross your heart
you’ll keep this fancy—that’s
all it Is, I tell you—from Caro
line.”
She sketched a motion
across her flat chest.
“I Just thought you ought U>
know. Whatever ~ou think
best, iarllng."
Within an hour, however,
the roof was perceptibly
of this money, has set many people
by the ears, and has made no ap
preciable improvement in the lot of
the class it set out to save.
Out of the $500,000,000 with which
Congress originally endowed it there
's left, we read, only $100,000,000.
This is still a respectable sum, but
it is vanishing like snow in a thaw
under the steady drain of carrying
charges on the huge stocks of wheat
and cotton that the boa-d bought
a year ago In the hope of supporting
a collapsing market in these basic
commodities. Spending $350 000.000
for wheat and $104,000,000 for cotton >
which it held for scene time and

shaken, and It was Esther who
calmly unleashed the wmds
On her way to bed she paused
for a brief visit in Mrs. Man
vel’s sitting room. Stretched
on a sofa, she lazily wondered
if her hostess knew that an
Elmford young lady, “The
pretty girl we picked up on
the road, driving from Prince
ton that night last fall,” was
living with Aunt Adelaide
Twining as a sort of com
panion. Didn’t Mrs. Manvel
think it odd that Steve should
have placed her there? Had
she any idea what his motive
could have been? And was
there any significance in her
reappearing in Elmford that
afternoon, and flaunting her
self on the pond?
Mrs. Manvel, as she 1'stened,
and as she asked frightened
questions, recorded in her face
the suffering she had dis
displayed while watching Gray
play football. At the end she
cried out hysterically:
“Esther, what did you see
when Gray had this girl on the
pond?”
But, as with Mr. Manvel,
Esther stiffened and reddened
before relaxing and lying.
“Oh, nothing, really. The
point is his father won’t take
it seriously, or do a thing.”
She imitated a great dread.
“And swear you won’t let
Mr. Manvel know I said a
word. I didn’t mean to tell
you, but you squeezed it out
of me, darling; but now that
you do know we might quietly
between us save Gray a lot of
bother.”
Mrs. Manvel agreed vehe
mently.
"What a chance for a girl
of that sort to get Gray in
volved! We’ve got to save him
a lot of bother from her, even
without his knowing it. I don’t
like her being with Adelaide.
The first thing we must do Is
to persuade your aunt to get
rid of her.”
Esther yawned.
‘‘That’s what I thought. I'm
so glad you agree with me.
Aunt Adelaide’s far more
likely to listen to you thon to
me.”
Yawning again, she stretched
her thin arms above her head.
"You know there’s something
out of the way about this Nor
cross girl, I mean her being
in Elmford, her looks, the way
she carries herself. I tell you
there’s something queer about
her, and I think the most use
thing I could do for Gay would
be to find out what it Is. I
dare say I can manage it. I’ll
do my best, at least.”
Still yawning, she kissed
Mrs. Manvel good-night, and
floated through the doorway
and along the hall to her own
room.
Barbara went back to Mrs.
Twining with a self-conscious
suspicion that she carried
visible wounds from the swift,
threatening interchange be
tween Harvey and Gray on
the pond. It was the fist time
these two men. each of whom
cared for her after his fashion,
had really met, and an en
mity had been formed that
would survive and grow; and
she shrank from forecasting
the ugly shapes it might as
sume; for if Gray persisted,
and she admitted that she
wanted him to, Harvey would
with the certainty of fate in
terfere again. At Harvey’s
touevh Gray’s hot temper had
flamed.
"Who do you think you are
crashing in here?”
"Gray please—”
She remembered repeating
It, mechanically in her fear,
a number of times. It was all
she had voice for as she
watched liarvey shake his
fist at the house on the hill,
pleasantly twinkling with
lights.
"Maybe I’d better tell them
up there.”
Somehow she found the
strength to hold back Gray’s
eager fist.
"Tell anybody you damned
please. You can’t threaten
me.”
“Then you keep your hands
off her. I warn you, Mr. Man
vel, there’s nothing I’ll stop
at to keep you from making
a fool of her.”
board's loss on these purchases is
estimated to have been $200,000,000.
And the wheat and cotton which it
has been unable to get rid of are
costing for storage and carrying
charges $34,000,000 a year, according
to report. Unless these accumula
tions of cotton and wheat surpluses
can be disposed of shortly and
losses cut, the remaining $100,000,000
in board's treasury will not last
long.
In fairness to the board, it must
be said that the task it undertook
was lmpo6ble. It was bound from
the outset to fail of its main objec
tive. the airastina iW ea^aiUna
“Gray, please—”
The sudden unclosing of his
fist, the quick shrug of his
shoulders, gave her a heady
sense of power over him.
“Don’t get scared, Barbara.
I won’t spoil the ice with the
medler unless he makes me;
too dashed many busybodies
about. But I want to know if
he has any real right to circle
in on us.”
“None, Gray.’
Harvey’s breathing was still
harsh.
“You’ll find I’ll circle in, as
you call it, just the same, any
time you try to hurt her.”
Gray made a motion to
wards him.
“Get out. I’ll thrash you to
a pulp if you int'rfere in my
games again.”
His game! That made one
of the wounds which Barbara
took back to Mrs. Twining’s:
a slumbering, brooding hurt.
“That you, Gray dear?”
Barbara shrank from the
flat tones. She had longed for
intervention, but she didn’t
like little Esther’s seeing her
with Gray in the dark.
“Come, Harvey.”
Barbara and Harvey edgeu
away, Gray clinging to her
hand as long as he could,
while Esther swung close, 1
laughing emptily; and Bar
bara was sure that Esther had
seen her, and wondered if she
would tell Mrs. Twining or
Steve.
They got their skates off,
climbed the hill, and curved
towards the Gardners’ gate in
an unbearable silence. Harvey
who loved her, had seen her
in another man’s arms, yet he
said nothing; and she had
nothing to say, because she
couldn’t regret what Gray
had done, because she couldn’t
quite yet anylize the nature
of the revolution that had ex
changed the cold orderliness
of her life for an ardent senti
mental terrorism.
“I suppose I ought to say
I’m sorry.”
Silently he opened the gate.
‘‘Harvey, aren’t you ever
going to speak to me again?”
He leaned against the gate
post.
“Yes. To tell you that you’re
to put Gray Manvel out of
your head.”
No curiosity, no recrimina
tions, no anger! simply an
order that rang with the right
of command! It spurred her
discomfort, her uneasiness.
“In a way I’m glad you saw,
because now it’s you who will
put me out of your head.”
His laugh was ugly. Yes,
there was anger there, but not
with her.
“Put you out of my head
after what I stumbled on to
night? I’d be a rare friend if
that didn’t make me watch
over you all the more. I
I needn’t tell you that Gray
Manvel isn’t likely to m^rry
you.”
She turned her back.
‘Who said anything about
marrying? That’s absurd.”
He was really angry, for he
laughed in that ugly, unac
customed fashion again.
“Absurd? After what I
saw?”
She started for the porch.
“Is a kiss so frightfully im
portant?”
For a moment the hard sur
face of his suppression crum
bled, letting through glowing
pain. He reached out and
stopped her, grasping her
shoulders roughly.
“What’s come over you?
You said it made you unhappy
to have me touch you, and
you say a kiss from him isn’t
important. I don’t believe you.
I won’t talk about it. I can’t
talk about it.”
“I don’t know what’s come
over me, Harvey.”
His hands pressed into her
shoulders, njaklng ponderable
the force of his will.
“You’re going to get Gray
Manvel out of your head.
You’ve get to get Gray Man
vel out cf your head."
She cried out despairingly:
“I can’t, Harvey. I'm afraid I
can’t.”
“You can. You will. I tell
you you will.”
