The disease is pernicious anaemia, 1 a malady about whit h very little is' known asid ti from the fact that it - takes annually a toll' -of about fire i persons in every 100,000, and is in variably fatal. Thus far the disease has not only resisted all attempts at treatment, but all effort dilet-fed toward finding the real cause has proved fatal, ac cording to medical authorities. It has been recognized since 1822, but was first systematically described in 1822 by Dr. Thomas Addison, it is said. Duke University's research will be in charge of Dr. Beaumont S. Cor nell, until, recently of Toronto I’ni versity. Cornell's activities will be directed toward further scientific at tempt to demonstrate the cause Os the disease, it was announced.

Ordered on' the set, Betsy xodestly dreads appearing before so nany strangers tn the abbreviated bathing suit she has been given to Bear. CHAPTER Vll—Continued Betsy drew the bathrobe around herself the tighter! Clare said, “Let's go. kid,” but Betsy hung back a moment to step impulsively up to Virginia and say: “I—l bops everything wtli be an sight for you." Virginia, bard at work complet ing ber make-up. paused and sur veyed Betsy with eyes whose first amazement gave way quickly to pleased Interest. "Thank you, child," Virginia said at length, graciously. Tba brief trip down to the tank eet, where was being shot “society lawn party" stuff featuring Walter McLain, tbe "Con Juan of the 400.” as be was called In the publicity, was pregnant with thrills for Bet sy. Face to face at last witb the big moment she had waited and hoped and planned tor so long! True. maDy depressing touches bad dimmed the ecstasy of the dreamed of experience; but still there was a deep tang in this moment of real isation which more than compen sated for tbe preliminary dis appointments. After all, this was not the end, but the beginning, of her career: others bad risen to clean fame and fortune. And why couldn't she —it she kept her mind Betsy was startled to find the epee of the heart wrecker of the screen upon her. end heart wary of pitfalls, moral and sentimental, and avoided the mistakes that were so obviously behind the stunted hopes and down right failures all around her? The actual set itself provided a dhaos of impressions for Betsy; it Was all so mystifying, bewildering. Thai crowding of extras bathing girls, "society people," and servants —the technical men lounging about; the little group of fawning planets revolving aronnd the chair where •at In moody self-consciousness the ■nn of all this action, the director; the actors who had minor parts and kept themselves meticulously aloof from the “bit” persons, who in turn high-hatted the mere extras; all the •harp lines of caste that prevail npon a movie set; and all that pe culiarly fluid and active and bus tling way of doing nothing at all that distinguishes such a set In those times when rehearsing or actual shooting is not under way. Betsy, clinging timidly to Clare’s bare arm, Anally picked out of the seemingly aimlessly milling crowd Ted, tbe fat assistant; be was argu ing with the bespectacled, puttied, sport-shlrted monarch on the can vas chair throne. Betsy, with fall ing heart, could see that this chief personage, whom she surmised was the director, preserved an adaman tine negative front to all the assist ant's talk. Then a tall, fine-looking motor with a close-cropped mustache took np the argument Betsy was too far away, of coarse, to hear what was being said; but tbe direc tor’s reactions were plain enough. To the actor, he unbent and seemed to be regally yielding. Betsy thrilled ss she thought she recognised the screen's greatest lover and burglar of beautiful so ciety women’s hearts; a whispered query to Clare brought confirma tion. “Yep, that’s UcLaln himself—he’s 1 the big noise around this studio frsfiinii) his glotnne make more Titinia Visited Pole.

On the polar | trip the dog wore clothes, a red wool i en jersey, and for the greater part of [ the trip she slept, covered by her mas ter’s sleeping bag. She was generally THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE money than those of any other / Amalgamated star.

In all of his pictures; rouses j passion In cold aristocratic blondes and then kicks them over. Every five reels of that stuff grosses half J a million.” , Most of which was Chinese to Betsy, but she did understand and share Clare’s awe in gazing upon such brilliant success in the flesn. McLain was at the peak of his pro- | fesslon i! A gossipy, expectant stir among 1 everyone present, technical and act ing alike, heralded the advent of Virginia, whose personality and trials were known to one and all. Virginia, with the dissipation show- , lng now only in the expression of her face under Its make-up, was dressed as a society matron; and a stunning picture she made to Botsy’s inexpert eyes, who did not note, as others could, the tired lack of spring in her carriage. Now Virginia was before the court. Covertly every one watched, and a lull came In the harsh gab and clatter. McLain had evidently won the director over, but that worthy could not let anything re motely representing a challenge to his austere dignity and discipline pass without a demonstration; so without regard for the unconcerned ears all around, he castigated Vir ginia with hts blistery tongue loud, long and picturesquely. Betsy’s shocked sensibilities bled for the discouraged and cringing woman, from whom a word of pro test would have been lese majeste —and worse, would have meant un employment, blacklisting, lack of food. With a final bellow the director waved Virginia onto the set—offi cially respited. Betsy, who had for gotten her own misgivings in her sympathy for this fallen woman, heaved a sigh of relief that the in quisitorial session was over and that Virginia still had a job. Virginia came toward Clare and Betsy In time to overhear the other bathing girls begin to ride Betsy when they noted that she still wore the bathrobe. "For the luvapete, girls, If the dear little thing ain’t afraid of catching cold!" rasped the slatty blonde. “It ain’t the cold, It's the naughty men's eyes she shies at!” mocked another. "Bet she'll wear It Into the water so that the fish won’t see her bare legs." giggled a third. Betsy blushed furiously and shrank from their ribald merri ment; she wished they would hush before some of the men lounging nearby would overhear the con versation and have their attention drawn to her. Surely the ordeal of exposure that faced her during the shooting was bad enoqgh without haviug to be also the object of espe cial notice. Virginia’s low voice, still musical hut quavering like a rusty harp that has bung too long on ruined castle walls exposed to the elements, broke In now, calling the girls to sharp task for their caustic joshing. Speedily and expeditiously she set them In their place. In the way that only an old trouper could, the while she tightened an arm around the frail shoulders of the trembling Betsy, who was on the verge of tears. "Aw, gee, Mrs. Perry, we didn’t mean nothing by It; just having a little Innocent fun.” “Innocent!” Virginia's eyes filmed at the word that touched her In a way that even the strident bullying of the .director had not. “Would to God that most of you, and I, were as Innocent as this little girl, as tree from taint as the dear little body that she still respects enough to hide It from swinish eyes.” “What’s all this about, Mrs. Perry? You seem quite worked up?” A man's deep, pleasantly resonant voice, dripping with the polish of gentlemanly concern, in truded. The girls, seeing who the new comer was, backed away from the group, leaving Clare and Virginia and Betsy alone with the man. Betsy, looking up quickly, was startled to find the smiling eyes of Walter McLain, arch heart wrecker of the screen, full upon her. There was a magnetic quality In that look that caused Betsy’s heart to flutter a false beat or two; while the blood fled from her face and limbs, and set fire to her bosom. “Little enough, Walter,” said Vir ginia easily. ‘Tve just been deess ] lug down some blase young women i who undertook to plague this child , because she isn't as brazen as they , are!” McLain arched his million dollar [ eyebrows and flashed his twenty million audience smile upon Betsy. ! “Newcomer?” he asked. Betsy could only nod. She was \ overcome by speech paralysis at be. t lug in tbe fleshly presence of a . man whose tame and personality had been an awesome phantom ol , shadowed theatres to her tor sa , many years. i (To be continued) I calm, but when the great ship was being tossed up and down by the wind-! storm over Kotzebue sound she prob-! ably understood that the situation was dangerous and run up nnd down the' cabin floor with her tail between her \ legs.

It wa.s pointed out. in this connection, that cotton mills have sprung up all over the state to manufacture raw material produced on surrounding farms. : “•(Viupled with water powe- posui- | bilities of this seetion,” it is -tared. i “factories for the manufacture of flax could be organized which would handle the material from the farms and turn out a finished product with out the cost of transporting it into the State." Flax does not impoverish the soil, the Department says, adding: "In general, soils which produce a good crop of corn or a good crop of ‘ barley will produce a satisfactory , flax crop. Flax is not a crop for poor I land and, while it does not require j excessively fertile soil, yet reason- i j ably good soil is necessary.
