CHAPTER XI.
A Vary Short Flfht
Jolly Hob in told hit wife how he
swooped down over Ready Wood

Ihtt ht had no douht that Mr.
Woodpecker would not be een

Jolly had felt quite pleated with
himself. Hi threatened attack ou
Reddy had teemed to him to he very
'arinj So he wat disappointed when
hit wi'e did not praiat him. And he
wat quite downcait when the told
him that he hadn't been fierce
enough.
"You ought to havt struck that
raieal with your bill." Mrs. Robin
complained. "If he's the sort of per
son I think he i. he'll pay no heed
to x ur warning."
At utual, Mr. Robin proved to be
right. That very day th herself be

held Reddy Woodpecker eating more
raspberries. He hid itolen every
ripe berry. Though Mrs. Robin had
hoped to find four (one for each of
her nestlings), she didn't pick even
one. They were all too bard and
sour.
She went home fn very low spirits.
"It's a pity," the said to Jolly.
"Everybody knows now-a-dayi that
childrsn need fruit. The day is past
when you can bring them up on
nothing but angleworms. You'll have
to go back there to the racpberry
patch and fight Reddy Woodpecker.
You can't escape a fight any longer."
Well, what could he do? What
could Jolly Robin do but obey his
wife? He asked himself that ques
tion. And he could find only one
answer. It was "Nothing!" There
was nothing he could think of that
would satisfy Mrs. Robin except a
real battle. So he went forth.
Yes! Jolly Robin went forth very
hrave'y to find Reddy Woodpecker.
, He meant to surprise him. But it
was Jo'ly who received the surprise.
Reddy Woodpecker attacked first!
The moment he spied Jolly Robin
Reddy hurled himself at him. He
skimmed so near to Jolly's head
that that astonished little fellow
ducked and hurried away. Yes!
Jolly Robin retreated. It wasn't that
Reddy Woodpecker was bigger than
he was. To tell the truth, Reddy
Robin loved peace.
Jolly hid in the midt of a thick
hedge that grew bevond the fence.
"Well," he muttered, "that fight was
soon over. There's no use of tell
ing Mrs. Robbin about it. She w6uld
only worry." He sat there a long
time. He didn't want to ro home.
He didn't know what to do. So he
thought and thought; until at last
a hippy idea popped into his head.
"I'll get hefpl'' he exclaimed. "I'll
get my friends from the other side
of the meadow to come and help me
fight Reddy Woodpecker."
Mrs. Robin was worrying terribly
when Jolly reached home.
"You've been -none a long time,"
she complained. "Did you chase that
Woodpecker pewon out of the val
lev "
"No!" said Jolly. "But I expect
to tomorrow. I've made all the ar
restments." - "I thought I told you to fight him
today," said his wife somtwhaf
tartlv,
DISEASES' PLAYGROUND.
"We ought to do like the Chinete
pay our doctor to keep ui well,
and punith them by Ant. imprison
mcnt, or death, when c fall lick or
die."
We have all heard that old saw
and most of ui have believed it. We
wallowed it along with. moat ef the
tiatcmentt found in ''Letters of a
Chines Diplomat" hook, lint and
tinker.
Then came the wonder: "If thii is
the right way, and the Chine e work
it that way. why the high aieknett
rate of the Chinete in China?" Either
the rule it not right, or it it not
worked.
These arc the facts:
When a Chinaman a-ets tick he
sends for 'a doctor if one it available.
If ht recovert, ht oayi htm scrupu
lously- If he develops a chronic dis
order, or if he diet, the doctor it apt
to have to. look to the future world
for his pay. The assumption it that
if there ia no cure the treatment was
not good and thtrc it no obligation
to pay for it. Beyond that, thtrt it
pa batit for the old taw about the
Chinete method.
Chinete curative medicine it about
the latt word in stupid superstition.
They know very little about curing
the sick, or even caring for the aick.
Therefore, good folks, take this
advice from me, the next time you
have an -ache or a pain and ftel
tempted to try the Chinese doctor
whose advertisement you read in the
panr. don't do it.
Ti better to bear the ills you
have than to drink a brew of snake
tails.
When it comes to Chinese pre
ventive medicine, there ain't no sieh
animal, or "there warn't.".. .
In ' consequence. , there is some
foundation for the statement that
China brews contagions and feeds
them to the world.
They feed us some leprosy? Ask
the Pacific slope. They raised an
awful cloud of plague in Manchuria
a few years ago. and plague has
been nibbling at American shores for
more than 20 years. There are those
who claim rtjat the next world wave i
of influenza' is fermenting in western
China, as did those of 1890 and 1918.
It is not meet that man should
live alone, and the Chinese wall has
never worked.
But China is awakening. For the
last several years I have received re
port of health campaigns in China.
They have had health expositions,
health plays, health lectures, health
parades, health bulletins, and posters.
Why, the Chicago health department
never showed more knowledge' of
salesmanship than these Chinese
health men are showing. ,
Stoddard says the Chinese mer
chant is the most skillful merchant
in the world. When if comes to
selling health, they are living; up to
their reputation. "
D W. W. Peter of Shanghai, who
has been organizing these snows and
parades, sent me their health pro
gram, entitled "Health Pays Divi
dends." They have devised apparatus for
demonstrating Chinese health shows:
Twelve bo6ks on health, written or
translated bulletins and charts pre
pared and circulated; a circulating
health library; health campaigns in
twelve cities and baby welfare ex
hibits; blindness exhibits; general
medical exhibits; more than a thou
sand lantern slides on health in cir
culation; nineteen moving picture
reels; weekly articles on health iu
fifty-one newspapers in sixteen prov
inces, v
In addition, they teach' hygiene in
the schools, have school nurses, ocu
lists, and dentists.
These activities are more than be-,
gun. They are well under way.

HOTEL CASTLE CAPE CAFETERIA
Why Madge Had Conflicting
Thoughts About Alien Drake.
I literally held my breath at the
end ef my little ipeech to see if my
ruic would succeed with Katie. But
I did not have to held it long. With
a howl ii could be called nothing
lis from my tempestuous little
maid, sht dropped her hands". from

clung to me convulsively.
"Oh, I no meant dot I" she wailed.
"You always so goot to me, always

"I am sure of that. Katie." I said
warmly, struggling between" a desirt

dialect and new world slang, and the
impulse to reprove her for her dire
spectful reference to our guest But
I wisely did neither. I had accom

the door.

One Problem Solved. .
She tilled joyfully at the fancy
laughter and tears are so near, to
gether with Katie, that I never quilt
Know where, the dividing line is
and I went from the kitchen with
the assurance that the domestic
problem connected with Allen Drake
was solved. In this moment'! felt
that I could dismiss our fascinating
but troublesome guest from ' my
mind until such time as he should
emerge from his room with ;-lhe
codes mastered.
But. perversely enough. I found
that instead of mentally dismissing
him, my thoughts were flying to that
upper room as if drawn to a magnet.
My imagination was stirred by the
picture my father's requirements had
drawn, the picture ot the Drtinant
secret service agent, working fever
ishly at the baffling codes in the
silent hours of the night, taking sleep
or food only when exhausted, bat
tling On doggedly, no matter what
the obstacles in his path. .-'
Because of his arrogance, his
patronizing loftiness, his tormenting
of Katie, I mentally had echoed the
wish for his humiliation which my
little maid had phrased crudely, and
which I knew Lillian had shared be
cause of Mr. Drake's conceit. But I
found myself Weakening in my cen
sorious attitude toward him, indulg
ing instead in the secret hope that
he would be able after all to emerge
triumphant from bis ordeal. . .
71 Don't Think-" . . $
And then, as the hours Wore on.
and there was no sign from the
upper room in whieh Mr. Drake was
housed, there came to me the re
membrance of the times when Allen
Drake had come to my aid. Never
had need of mine failed to bring
him. I realised with a little thrill Of
my pulses that beneath the mask of
Allen Drake's indolent, polished
manner, lay an indefinable something
which had once or twice gleamed out
at me, but at which I never had dared
a, probing glance.
He did not deserve my wish tor
his failure, I told myself . shame
facedly, and as there is no standing
still for me in any emotion, I found
myself progressing from that atti
tude to an intense desire for his
triumph.
the second day of his stay had
waned into the third night, when my
father tapped at tht door of my
room, and at my summons, entered,
giving a relieved glance at . finding
me alone.
"Daughter, dear." he said, after he
had closed the door and come over
to my chair. "I am going to ask
something strange of you."
His manner was hesitant, and I
put up my hands and drew his fare
down lo mine.
"I don't think there is anything in
the world you could ask of me that
I wouldn't try gladly to do," 1 re
plied, Tknow thai," he returned fondly.
"But I know you don't care par
ticularly to be brought into contact
with Allen, but he is exhausting
bimself over that one baffling feature
of the code you know he has been
ill, I am afraid his strength will
give out and I think I may be
mistaken therei is something about
it in which you 'could help him. May
I tell him you arc willing?"
Prayer Each Day
Sly pc I l unto yu Jhn 14. JT.
O Thou who art the giver of every
good and perfect thing, in Whose
unfailing love we live and move and
have our being, and without Whom
we should be poor indeed, enable us,
we beseech Thee, to discern even
more clearly Thine abounding good
ness to us, and as Thou hast made
us rich in blessings, make us also
rich in gratitude. We praise Thee,
our Father, for those revelations of
Thy love with which we are most
familiar, and which we are all too
prone to forget; for rising and set
ting suns, and the stars; for clouds
and winds and passing seasons; for
the outer light in which we walk se
renely and dwell securely; and the
light within, the true light which wit
nesses to our oneness with Thee.
Wilt Thou help us reverently to in
terpret all our blessings in terms of
Thy love? We thank Thee for our
friends and all that friendship has
meant to us, and that we may think
of ourselves as friends of Jesus
Christ. Wilt Thou help -us also to
understand what high obligations
such friendship lays upon us. We
praise Thee for Thy gift of peace
that peace-which the world cannot
give nor take away, the peace of
those who have found their sanctu
ary ,in the love and goodness of God.
Evermore give us this peace. In
His name, who came to bring us
peace. Amen.
