Heale nodded. You spotted the fire, didnt you, Jervies? he asked. So Clint told his story, briefly, the Inspector listening without interruption till the young man was done. Then Inspector Heale began to question him; and Tope left them together and walked over toward the fire. There were two or three scores of people here, roused by the alarm or wakened by the glare of the flames against the rainy sky, and come to watch the conflagration to its end. Tope moved among them quietly, listening to the fragmentary conversations here and there. Then he saw Asa Taine, in the shadows by the old barn, talking to someone Lissa Thayer. Her countenance was in darkness, since Asa stood between her and the smile at June, had quite a he admitted.

Youve fiddled around with your figuring; and now Youre as bad as But Asa interposed reasonably: Steady. Rab. I guess Inspector Heale used his best judgment. After all, he couldnt be sure Kitty was poisoned. Maybe her heart cracked, let go. He added: And this tonight may have been an accident You cant which Denman Hurder still lay unconscious and near death; and the parlor doors likewise were closed. But Mrs. Bowdon and Mrs. Taine waited for them in the sitting-room- ; and Mrs. Bowdon was in a chair that faced the door by which they entered. Tope had an impression of mass, of a white mass that would not easily be moved. Her hair was white; so was her cheek; so was the shapeless dressing gown she wore. She sat in a ponderous immobility which had nevertheless a suggestion of power held in restraint; and her eyes were alive and hard and cold. Mrs. Taine, on the other hand, met them at the door.

Then someone called Topes name, and the old man saw Lissa slip away into the darkness as Heale and Clint came to his side. At the same time Asa recognized Clint, and he approached them. he said, in a Hullo, Jervies, friendly tone. What have you done with June? Heale and Tope were a little to one side. Personality Will Determine the Best Vocation to Follow, Says Physician I . s In keeping civilization going, the introverts those persons whose interests are mostly personal furnish most of the ideas; the extraverts, or socially minded people, turn the wheels, Paul Popenoe declares in Extravert or Introhis article vert? in the November Hygeia. Temperamental differences are of vital Importance in vocational guidance, many a maladjustment of adult life being due to the fact that an extravert is trying to do an introverts job, or vice versa. On the whole, extraverts naturally tend to succeed best in occupations that bring them into contact with other people and that demand aggressiveness, decision and action. Introverts will be found predominantly in places where they can work alone and in creative fields, such as art, science and literature. An extravert girl might fail as a as sculptor but succeed admirably a teacher of art to large groups of into people. An introvert who goes law will not be likely to win fame as a jury lawyer but will naturally gravitate into office work. In the family, each plays a different role, and each must be treated accordingly. One is as g od as the other; but one is by no means the same as the other. Successful parenthood will take account of the differences. The extravert child will please his parents by making a good social adjustment without any special help; he will make good marks without much effort, will take the leadership in school activities, will be popular with associates because always ready with a joke or retort. The introvert is usually the opposite of all this. His interest and attention are turned inward rather than outward. He is more concerned with his own thoughts than with what is going on around him outside. He will be modest, unassuming, cautious, critical, Why Bread Is Staff of Life There is a natural reason why wheat bread Is called the "staff of Wheat has some elements life. which make It different from other grains.
