Seeing Kay there surely up set any ideas he might have had that lu- didn't love her. He might haw been all right if she had been sl« elt and polished and unobtain able- in a dashing black satin dress. It was that soft rose thing she wore Hi- was haunted for days aft ir wan Is by the way she looked when In- said good night to her. Wistful, tender, unprotected. Where had Ins courage been? In desperation he finajly called her at her office. "Miss Stevens is away." lie was informed. Hi- rushed over to Het's. "Where has Kay gone?" he demanded be foi«- the door was wide open. "Hello. Come on In and sit down." "Hello, sweetheart. Don't mind me It's just come over me that I've gut to see Kay, right away, today." He was out of breath. That would be a bit difficult. She happens to be In California." He sank down on a chair, crest ■ fallen. "What's she gone out there for?" lie asked after a long min ute. _ "Business trip." Then she added deliberately. "With David Banning." "Willi Rnnninrrl" Intro ,mt of liis seat. "It hardly seems nec essary to mo that they go to gether." "I don't know that It was en tirely necessary. Even a casual of server with open eyes could see Mint Davlit welcomes any opportu nity he has to be anywhere Kay Is." llet had been cleaning some palftt brushes when Jake barged In, and she went calmly on with the Job. She wanted Jake to digest what she had said. « "How does she feel ubout hlmt" Jake wanted to know. "I'm not mire. David has a lot to offer any girl. And I have a hunch that he's going to offer It all to Kay while they're nway." She was taking a wild chance. But every thing had always been too easy for Jake. Jake sat with his head In his hands for n long time, silent. "The obvious alternative Is that I 'lon't have anything to offer," he said wearily. "That's not true, Jake," Het ob jected •nut let's get the facts straight, so I'll know what we're talking nbrnit. Are you seriously thinking of asking Kay to marry you ?" "I don't know. Yes, I guess I am. "»t what's the use? You yourself nave Just pointed out the absurdity of It all," he said with scorn. Hct put down her brushes, dried her hands. She walked over and Mood near Jake, her arm stretched along the mantleplece. I "David has certain factors In hla [wvor, tf a woman la aarchlm tor The urge to get there was too strong.

Vou feel that under David's surface there's a foundation of solid rock, some thing so firm that no matter what happened It could never he shaken." "Nobody could ever say that of me," Jake admitted with a wry smile. That smile of his always warmed a special spot In Hut's heart. She guessed It was time to be nice to Jake. "No, they couldn't." She put her hand on Jake's shoulder." But that doesn't mean there isn't anything to be said In your favor." She thought of all the girls who had lost their heads over him. and sighed. "You're an attractive man with a certain something that some people might prefer to solid ity." "Which do you think counts most with Kay?" He was almost afraid to ask. "That's a question I think you'll have to discover the answer to yourself." Jake got up out of the chair, be gan pacing tho floor. "Maybe by the time Kay gels back It will be too late." "That's possible. You'd have no one but yourself to bin me. Why haven't you called her up, been to see her?" she asked Impatiently "For a very good reason. Off hand, I'd say there wasn't anyone In New York less qualified to marry that girl, either financially or tem peramentally But I'm past caring about that." He shrugged his shoulders. "Kay will be home In about a week. That's not long. You can get it all settled then." "A week seems like eternity to me right now. Slip may be engaged to David by then." He quashed out his cigaret In an ash tray. "I'll work It out somehow, Het," he said, kissed her cheek snd left. Two hours Ister he called her up "Goodby, sweetheart, I'm off." "Whjrj to?" with mock surprise "To California, of course." Jake had ceased lo startle Het years ago "How do you propose to get there?" "I've borrowed Nick's Chrysler. He was going to turn it in A tew thousand miles more or less won't matter. Ami Jenny's a hit too slow for this sort of thing " Jakt- was exhilarated "Jake, you can't possibly make it in time She's leaving for home on Sunday and It's Tuesday now Met was worried She had n sudden vi sion of Jake smashed up miles from nowhere. "I'll make It. don't stew about that. Where will she he on Satur day?" "San Francisco. At Gai land's hotel Oh. Jake, do careful " "I will And I'll wire you every day, grandma " "Why don't you fly? I'll lend you the money." Het wasn't given to panic, but the thought of this scat terbraln trip terrified tier "Can't start out married life In debt." "Oh, Jake, you're incorrigible." "There a another reason for driv ing, besides the expense. I thought that if 1 did see Kay." he hesitated a little, "and if she wasn't going to marry David," another pause, "and If she did want to marry me—" "You could drive home for the wedding trip" "Yes. that's it flood idea ?" "I guess so. I don't know. I give you up. Good luck. Jake " "Thanks, and so long " The weather was with Jake. It was hot, but he didn't run into any rain, and had clear moonlit nights. He slept a few hi irs during the hottest part of the day. pulled up on a side road under a tree, and drove all night. If he felt sleepy he put a few pebbles in his mouth. But he didn't fee I sleepy often Tin urge to get there was loo strong. If only he weren't too lafe! (To Be Continued) Advances in Treatment Of Infantile Paralysis By LOGAN CI.KNDKMNG. M. D. ON THIS occasion which cor responds to the President's an nual celebration, which he very properly un.l intelligently dedi Dr. domiciling will answer questions of general interest only, and then only through his column. cates to a thought about the di sease of infantile paralysis, this column takes the opportunity to discuss the progress in the treat ment of this condition. Unquestionably all interest has been centered upon the Kenny treatment, which consists in re education of the paralyzed mus cles—in the first stage the use of hot water packs or towels over the paralyzed muscles and in a later stage, commanding the patient to use muscles that are paralyzed. All credit must be uiven to Miss Elizabeth Kenny, who is a nurse —not a doctor—and who has con vivced the medical professions of North America ->nd Great Britain that it is possible to rehabilitate muscle groups by external heat and voluntary control by com mand. The pi ocess of such re-educa tion in tin poliomyelitis victim is not easy. Mot minutes, but hours and days and weeks are spent in teaching the patient to move one little tnuscle of the hand, or of the foot, or of the arm or of the leg. Hope of Great Success The teacher must be patient beyond all human conception of patience; the victim also must be helpful. But one day both teacher and pupil find that the muscle they have been working on does really work. And then patience is re placed by enthusiasm. From that point onward they can work to gether and accomplish the results that art seen in every Kenny Clinic Even t«3 most hard-boiled of my colleagues have been convinced that method holds out hope for great success. I have been in terested in one little chap myself plnce a year and one-half ago. He has regained the use of muscle groups that I would have been prepared to swear would never he useful again. All this indicates a fundamental principle of medical practice, which is that medical advance does not occur in a minute. The medical profession is not prepared to state, as soon as one new treatment is suggested, that it is universally successful. We have been fooled too often; there have been too many sensational new treatments which have proved all too often to be disnppointing. For Acute and Residual Stages But the Kenny method of treat ment of infantile paralysis ap pears to have stood the test of time, and while it does not make revolutionary changes in the pa tient, it can be recommended both in the acute and the residual stages for anyone who is doubtful about trying it. Not only in the Held of treat ment, but in our knowledge of the transmission of the disease from one person to another progress is • being made. 1 have a deep convic tion that owing to the stimulus of our President's condition and his intelligent interest in research along this line, we are on the verge of great developments.
