She always had to know where you were going and what you were doing. If you told her. it took endless time; if you didn't, she was wounded. Bet never minded.

"What do you think t do about ! getting out of this garage when you ! aren't here?” she demanded gayly, j bleering straight back and curbing *vn impish desire to mow him down, j 111 six solid feet of him. "Do it very badly indeed,” Orton j said with the iron-clad calm which was the legacy of a lifetime spent with a firm mother, two firm aunts, •nd a firm grandmother. “You don't ' think enough about form, Leila; the' way- to come out of a garage is to ' \ back in and come out properly." i l.' ually this would have been the I hr t paragraph of a conversation, t mainly by Orton, as to the proper i way of doing everything, for he was 1 i'c-t on tvcnnhiiie.

Leila would contribute health ! and strength and ancestry, also a 'responsibility of mind which her fu ture mother-in-law valued beyond any late-come riches which might accrue with other girls—say little arrogant Mary Martin, who looked more like Jean Hat low than was possible, and had nearly snapped up Orton three years ago on her last flight through Fernwood. ‘ Nevertheless," Leila meditated, being a fair-minded girl and particu laily glad to think of anything but Bet's present mess, “Orton is really giving more than lie gets, even if f were beautiful as the dawn and could drive ears better than an angel.

I am sure that most people with tonsilitis feel worse than those with a severe case of diphtheria. In fact. °” e of the dangers of diphtheria is ttiat the patient does not feel very bad constitutionally; there is a little ■ore throat and a mild amount of malaise the first few days, and all to these are allowed to pass on as being of no cqnsequence, and the precious tome is lost when 1 Antitoxin treatment could do the most good. j ( .Blit bad as acute tonsilitis is. some : 6f its consequences may be even i more serious.

'•"here appears to be no reason why North might not have fulfilled the contract, except his weakness an a player. I !is formed. The discomfort from this mass in ihe back of the throat, which ! usually interferes quite considerably with breathing, is almost the limit of human endurance. There is no way to predict whether or not acute tonsilitis will develop into quinsy and no way for the at tending physician to prevent >t. Many families blame the doctor when this accident occurs, but this is en tirely unjust, as it happens with the best care. The only way to prevent it is. after an acute attack of tonsil itis without it. is to have the tonsils out. following one of the fundamental surgical rules not to operate in the presence of acute infection, or not to handle acutely infected tissues, re moval ot tonsils during the acute stages of tonsilitis Is universally condemned, but after the infection has calmed down, they certainly should tie removed. An attack of acute tonsilitis is a certain indica tion for removal of ihe tonsils. After the attack the tonsils may harbor germs which send out their toxins through the body, producing infec tion of tlie joints, of the bones, in fection in the eye, the kidneys and heart muscle, and skin rashes. Such being the case, it seems only sensible to remove such a potential source of danger.
