Mlrlnm seemed rot in the least surprised, but rather pleased. Marjory, too, seemed to tuke the outrage with Indecent calmness, while Eddy Jackson wore a smile no less than diabolic. "Just for that, Eddy Jackson, yon owe me ulnety dimes," she announced sternly. "Nine whole dollars I spent on this comedy of yours." And she marcaed straight to the kitchen. Only Eddy Jackson heard her. For Miriam, the lust shred of ber sensi-bility thrown to the winds, was cling-ln-to Alexander's bands, and trying to draw Marjory by sheer force luto the warmth of bis nearness. Eddy fol-lowed Ginger to the kitchen. "Aw, have heart," be pleaded. "He lold me to do It". Ginger stared at a pan on the stove, where thick heavy bubbles rose and fell. "Ton see the gravy Is burning," she said, end offered not a hand to save It. "Let It burn.

Ginger and Eddy sat alone in the liv-ing room of the old parsonnge, rnther still, a little depressed with their nloncness. In the email don on the left, beyond the curve of the staircase, they could hear Hiram's low voice, talking to her father, while they sorted and packed old manuscripts, ready for removal from the housr that had been their home for four years. Miss Jen-kins bad gone to her room, to weep over the departure of the twins. Gin ger had seen her go, with relief. Miss Jenkins' weeping depressed her to the deepest extreme. "Well. It's all over now," she said dully. "Helen's married, the twins are gone, and father and I are fired." "Oh, nonsense. Helen Is well off and very happy. The twins will be home for Christmas, and your father will get a better church than Red Thrush." "Eddy" Her voice sank to a whisper. "Do you think he will ever see again? Do you think even the most expensive doner In the world can cure him?" "Why, of course he will see again Didn't all the doctors say the same thing, thut It was Just nervous and mental reaction, and In time " "It's a long time, though. Very long."

He turned to Ginger, and caught her arm In a rough grasp. "Come along, now, and no more monkey business" Eddy was a slow young man, slow to wrath, but the sight of the great red hand on Ginger's slender arm goaded him to action. "You take your handi; off that glrlP he shouted, springing across the room with a blind violence thnt sent two chairs spinning away from ulT. "Hush, oh, hush," begged Ginger. "Eddy, don't I I'm not hurt Oh, don't let futker bear youl Oh, please hush!" "Bring out your old man bring out the whole nest," bellowed the officer furiously. "We'll clean bouse here while we're at It" Ginger turned despairingly to Eddy Jackson. "Eddy, make blm hush I Father's eyes A shock will Oh, Eddy I" The officer, pulling himself away from Eddy's restraining bond, caught her shoulder with a grasp that flung her half to the floor, and Eddy, driven entirely reckless at the sight, leaped upon him. But Mr. Tolllver In fhe small ad-joining room hud heard the unusual uproar 'n his quiet home, heard It first with surprise, then with rising indignation. With one bound he en-tered the living room, and instinctive-ly, as in a crisis one who has been accustomed to clear vision for many years Is bound to do, he tore the pro-tecting bandages from his eyes and dashed them upon the floor.

B. ........... . . . . ,tt Death as an "Advantageous Adaptation" WEISMANN held that death Is an adaptation." For what? To whom? Looks like non-sense. Osier said that man Is as old as bis arteries. There was enough truth In this to make It take. It means even less to say that man la as old as hla endocrine glands. Arteries aud glands are as old as the man. MetchlnlkolT held that because of "dlEhnrmonle" In the body, the phag-ocytes devoted too much time to eat-ing pigment In hair and loo little to the bacterial flora of our digestive tract, ltesult : fermentation, poison, death. , Puberty Is a period, but a kind ot sex life begins nt birth; for many, real sexuul maturity never comes. So It Is with adults; some are more adult In body and mind at fifteen than ot h- - era at thirty-five- ; some hurry through to senility before body and mind have become fully adult. Normal old ago la physiological ; It Is no more a disease than adolescence, and should be as agreeable, lu pathologic old age, senil-ity is premature and is a disease. The seat of the disease may be anywhere or may be due to some bacterial In-fection. In natural death, we die by Inches. But while there Is only one path by which we may enter the world, a Pearl points out In bis remarkable book on death, there are many that lead to the Klver Styx. Death does not strike at random, but In an or-derly way and there are ninny ways of dying. We die when an essential part of our body breaks down. From an analysis of the mortality tables of England and Wales, the United States, and Sao I'aulo, Brazil, Pearl found that over half the deaths In all three countries are due to faulty wind and food canals. While both canals are Inside the body, they come In contact with air, food and water from the outside The skin also Is exposed to the world, but It Is armor-plat- e against foreign Invasion. . Wind and food canals have no such protect-ing layer of pavement cells as has the skin. Outer skin and lining of wind and food canals constitute the body's first line of defense aguinst invasion of bacteria. The next chief cause of death is the circulatory system; the blood is tbo body's second line ot defense. When the first fulls to check the enemy, the way to the blood Is open. Hence the great port played by the clrculntory system as the second great cause of death. A Pearl says, we should live much longer If our lungs were as good as our heart. The death rates show certain Im-portant age and sex fluctuations. Early lnfuncy deaths are heavy. There is then a sharp drop until the period, when the rate begins to rise to the period. There-after the rate rises slowly until the period, when It begins to rise again rapidly. Nearly 60 per cent of the deaths were from organs derived from the or Inner germ-laye- r the layer that originally was outside the body. In the developing embryo thnt layer comes to he folded within the borly and lines the food canal and accessory organs ot digestion. It Is an e relic of nntedlluvl-n- n ectoderm. As a lining for the food canal It Is our weakest spot. Oiir strongest spots are the skin cover of our body and our nervous system. Both are derived from the ectoderm or outer germ-laye- Deaths from structures derived from this layer make np only about 10 per cent of the total. Almost no germs get through a healthy skin. The cells of skin and nerves have differei ,nted most from their primitive structure. The remaining 3D per cent of deaths are from the mesoderm or middle germ-lnye- clreulntory and urogenital systems and muscles. The breakdown of fhe female reproductive organism Is also a heavy factor In Infant mortal-ity. While mortality due to breakdown In ectoderm organs Is about the same for the two sexes, female mortaUty from mesoderm is as great ns from endo-der-breakdown twenty years before it is In mules. Death comes, then, according to Pearl, because our bodies are made up of systems specialized in structure and function. In becoming specialized, their cells have become so differenti-ated that they have lost the power of Indefinite and Independent existence. Thus the cells lining our lungs can be nourished only If the cells of the food tract end the blood keep on the Job. Some systems are better made than others. The brain outwears the heart, the heart outwears the lungs. The striking agreement as to the causes of death which Pearl finds in such dissimilar countries as England, the United Stntes, snd Sao Puulo, force him to conclude that Innate con-stitutional factors, along with environ-mental factors, largely determine rates of human mortality. In certain dis-eases of course, environment Is the important factor. The causes of death. Pearl finds, are In the following descending order; res-piratory system; digestive system; cir-culatory system and blood; nervous system and sense organs; kidneys and related excretory organs; sex organs; skeletal and muscular system; skin; endocrine organs.

In 1928, however, this group ot states supplied about 4 per cent of the nation's total. Greatest Increase in production dur-ing tht period was In Utah and Idaho. MOAB The first real snow storm of the year hit this section recent-ly. About one half Inch ot snow fell bore In the valley although be-fore night most of it had disap-peared. The fall was heavier in the higher districts and on the desert north of here. Sheep and cattlemen ot this section were becoming greatly concerned over the prolonged dry spell, as the watering places were freezing. ST. GEORGE The 1930 budget ha been set at $47,011 for Wash-ington county. A public hearing on the budget will be held soon. The estimated 1330 expenditures follow: County roads, fCOOO; county Indigent and old sge pensions, $3000; sinking fund and Interest on bonds, $5000; state road fund, $10,-00- county advertising, $300; of-fice expense, (3821 ; salaries and general expense, $18,830. EPHRAIM At a special meeting of the city council the budget ex-penditures for 1930 were fixed as follows: General fund, $7,000; streets and alleys, $2,000; eloctrto HghL $7,000; water works, $6,000;- - library, $2,000; sinking fund, $1,100; special lmprovemats, $1,300.

VERNAL Expressed In percent-age, the road from Salt Lake to Vernal in the year 1924 wa 17.5 per cent totally surfaced, while In 1929 the highway is D0.8 totally surfaced,., with that part uncom-pleted at this time being on the federal forest reserve. Utah's hare has been completed, either to federal aid standard or to state standard, which Is comparable, hav-ing been accomplished by better-ment funds.
