A few days ajro a reader wrote to a San Francisco newspaper news-paper about the Dionne quintuplets. He desired, he wrote, to read less about "these monstrosities." The result was a delude of letters from other readers. They wished, they wrote, to read all they could and see all the pictures possible of the babies. It's an old saying there's nothing new under the sun and there have been quintuplets before, and will be again. But never has there been the public interest in such a case; certainly, never before did a government constitute itself guardian for five born-altogether babies. In the past year, the quintuplets have occupied as much newspaper space as Roosevelt; more than Lindbergh got in any year. How many million women, all over the world, have said: "Aren't they cute?" nobody knows. In a way, raising the babies is a triumph for humanity. A century ago, they wouldn't have had a chance. One or two might have lived. We all feel a little proud that science and common sense have advanced to the present point. And so, despite a dissenting reader here and there with a perfect right to his opinion the newspapers probably will go on printing news and pictures of the quintuplets. The public seems to like them. Works Both Ways Charles M. Schwab, chairman of the Bethlehem Steel corporation, returns from a trip to Europe where, by the way, he visited the famous Sir Basil Zaharoff, international munitions king to remark that it woiuVlrbe" a grave mistake for America to adopt legislation taking the profits out of war. "You can't operate munitions plants without profits," he says. "For in such business you have to allow private capital to invest money, and without profits you can't induce people to invest." This would be quite convincing if we did not read it against the background of wartime conscription of fighting men. If the country can take an ordinary, peaceloving citizen from his home and send him out to face mutilation or death for a dollar a day, it ought to be able to exercise .an equal power over the men who supply him with rifle and cartridges and, as the saying goes, to make everybody concerned like it-, as wt-ll. Punish the Frauds In many western counties, determined efforts are under way to remove clusters from relief rolls. Relief authorities estimate that from five to ten per cent of the people on relief have no right there. There should be universal support for the effort to purge the rolls of fraud. The chiseler cheats everybody. He obtains money from the public by false pretense. He takes money that should go to people who really I need it j H bring, the who!, relief setup into disgrace, because, the public, hearing about the small projortion of fraudulent i reliefees, tends to condemn the Courts and prosecutors, in each county, should crack down on a few flagrant cases, sternly and relentlessly. That would have a salutary effect. It would save public money; win a squarer deal for honest unfortunates; restore to the relief organization some of its lost prestige.

SCIENCE Dr. C. A. Lilly. Dr. C. B. Pierce and Dr. R. L. Grant, of the University Uni-versity of Michigan Medical school, have been experimenting for months with rats and rickets, and have made some startling discoveries. dis-coveries. Rickets is the disease that causes so many bowlegged babies among the city population, and which is inexpensively cured by exposure to ultra-violet rays of the sun. Chiefly, these research, medical medi-cal men have found that" a diet which included the right proportion propor-tion of phosphorus made the victims vic-tims grow more rapidly than any other compound, and in' addition, the rickets were cured. While viosterol, irradiated cod livor oil and cholestrol Were . also tried (being among the best known cures of rickets) the finest results re-sults were obtained with the phosphorus "diet. ' It has long been thought that phosphorus was fatal if taken, as a medicine fh any great quantities, quanti-ties, and these experiments will be continued with other groups of rats effected with rickets in an effort to prove just in what degree phosphorus can be safely administered.

They are afraid that fight-mind-. ed union workers will force a strike. Privately that is the last thing the A. -F. of L. board of strategy wants to see happen right now. There are two reasons behind this reluctance.: 1. Secretly labor chieftains don't think the rubber-unions are strong enough at present to win a resort to arms; and they fear that defeat would prove disastrous to the future standing of the unions. 2 Green and his colleagues have entered into a truce with the president and they fear a labor war in a major industry right now would militate against the chances of putting through the Wagner labor disputes dis-putes bill.

He was a little man with a very round face and bushy gray eyebrows. eye-brows. He wore spectacles set down on his nose, so that he had to peer downward to see through them. "Well," he said, sitting down In a chair beside the bed. "what have you been doing lately?" He leaned forward, putting his hand on TomvHnderson'8 wrist. "I've been feeling pretty good." the man in bed told him. The heavy breathing had stopped but Tom Henderson's voice sounded weak and epent. "I've felt better lately than S have for a long time until this spell came on tonight" Gale was standing at the other side of the bed. She said. "Yes, Doctor, he told us that yesterday. He's been getting out for a little walk every day " "How far'd you go?" Doctor Carr asked. "Just to the corner." The doctor nodded. "Too far," he said, Just what I thought You've been over-doing It, Hender son. That's what always happens. As soon as a man begins to feel better he thinks he can get out and do as much as he ever did. Well he cant. 'Body's like any other machine; wtien it's used up it's got to have rest.

Her eyas held the question she dreaded putting into words. i "Doctor? "There's nothing to worry about," he reassured her, "so Ions as your father does as I've told him. Those walks were too much for! him. See that he takes his medicine and stays off hit feet. That's the only . w 'ml M;rM The next day, Tuesday, as Jesus entered the temple, a group of chief priests, scribes, and patriarchs approached, hoping to ensnare Him. They inquired or esus the nature and origin of His mission, pretending pretend-ing that they were competent judges of His claims. But Our Lord clearly showed them that if -as they themselves confessed they were not able to decide whether the baptism administered by John the Baptist was heaven or not. He had a perfect right not" to consider them competent judges o! the character and origin of His own mission. mis-sion. To Pharisees who asked Him whether it was lawful to give tribute trib-ute to Caesar, Our Saviour answered that they could not have accepted the coins of the emperor without recognizing his sovereignty and thereby declaring it lawful to pay him tribute. The Pharisees went away, dumfounded at His wisdom. Jesus next put the Sanhedrists to rout by asking them how the Messiah could be the sun of David, and yet be called 'Lord" by David himself. Afterward, Jesus left the temple, foretelling its utter destruction.

"Here's the prescription. " he said. Fie went on with Instructions about the medicine and a moment later was at the door. Gale said. "Good night. Doctor." and stood for a moment looking out at the darkness. In an hour or so the sky would be growing light again. She thought of the old phrase. "Always darkest before Sawn," and thought that It was certainly true of the night, at ieast Was it true of other things? Sh closed the door then and locked it and turned to see her bii)ther waiting in the hallway. "How is he now?" Phil asked. "Better, I guess. The doctor gave him something to make him sleep. Doctor Carr says there's no 'danger of another attack so long as he keeps quiet. He'll have to stay in bed for a few days." "Can he stay here alone?" "I thought maybe Mrs. O'Connor would be willing to come in and bring him some lunch at noon and perhaps stop in once or twice during dur-ing the day to see if there's anything any-thing he wants. If she can't we'll have to get someone else. You'd better go to bed, Phil, and get some sleep If you can " "Aren't you going?" "I'll wait up for a little while. I'm not sleepy." She went to the door of her father's fa-ther's bedroom and looked inside. He was lying with his eyes closed. Gale entered quietly and turned out the light She went back to the living room and sat down in the big chair by the window. It was true that she did not feel sleepy now Vnere-ly Vnere-ly tired but she wanted to be near in case her father should call, ALE leaned back in her chair and thought that the night seemed endless. Could it possibly have been only the evening before that she had been down on the river, skating with Brian West more? She put the thought from her guiltily. She didn't want to think of that now. The clock on the table ticked monotonously. Gale could not see it from where she sat but she knew it must be 4 o'clock, or later. She heard a train whistle and then there was silence again except for the clock's ticking. Gale closed her eyes Bright sunlight, streaming through the window, awakened her. For a moment she did not know where she was. Then shs Jumped to her feet and hurried to her father's room. He was sleeping quietly. Gale closed the door and went to wake her brother.

"Sit down and eat." she told him. j "I'm going to run over to see Mrs. ; O'Connor." She was out of the room and back again an instant later, pulling on her coat "Father's asleep," she said. "I guess it will be all right to leave him if Mrs. O'Connor can come over Mrs O'Connor could. She listened sympathetically to Gale's account of what had happened the nlgbt before, be-fore, and said she'd be glad to take Tom Henderson his lunch. The poor man him such a hard worker and always glad to do a good turn for a neighbor. "Tim's brother, you know," Mrs. O'Connor confided, "he had them spells when he couldn't get his breath. Oh.

Here, Mrs. O'Connor, here's the key!" She turned and fled down the walk. ITER breath was still coming In deep gasps as she entered the big room and hurried to her place. She bent her head, fingers flying. Somehow she knew, though she did not look up, that Fisher, the foreman, fore-man, was crossing the room, coming com-ing toward her. She knew what be would say. She had heard him say It to others. "You there!" "Yes, Mr. Fisher." The heavily sarcastic voice rose loudly. "So you decided o come to work today, did you? Well, that's certainly very nice! Made up your mind at the last minute. I suppose after you'd heard the whistle. Do you know what time the switches are turned on here?" "Yes. Mr. Fisher." "Then what's the Idea of coming in five minutes late? Do you think you can get away with that? Do you think we can run this mill with everyone coming to work when they please?" Girls all around heard what he was saying. It was impossible for them not to hear. Gale's cheeks were burning. Without waiting for an answer Fisher went on. "Maybe you think there ought to be some changes around here so you can drop in to work whenever you feel" like It! Well, let me tell you. there'll be changes all right if this happens again.
