By this means the air is warmed before it reaches the lungs and the risk of trouble there is lessened. A sufficient supply of oxygen to the lungs is as- sured and development is assisted. If the nasal passages are not used, the nose becomes pinched, the palate and teeth altered in shape and the child gets a vacant expression, Even if the child breathes norm- ally, however, adenojds should be con- sidered if ear troubles and frequent colds occur, In these cases the child shows lack of energy; he would just as goon sit about as join in the bois. terous games of the healthy child. As 'a rule, his sleep is disturbed and, in consequence, he is too tired to pay much attention to what is said to him, For this reason he appears mentally dull, / ; If aecpssary adenoids should be re- moved.

NOW GO [ON WITH THE STORY, The young man stood with the limp form of Jean Graham in his arms, wondering what to do. His own face was almost as white as hers and his hands trembled violently. "Good God!" he muttered stupidly. Then walking a few steps to where there was a level place in the moun- tain side from which some rock had been quarried, he laid her. down flat and taking her handkerchief began to vlear the splinters of glass and wood from her face, Her head was bleed. ing from an ugly cut and in compari- son with the red trickle her face vas But that reminded him that he should go to the police. He would telephone. .. . , No--it was out of order. : O well, they must wait. , , . He could not go until he knew how police on earth, = Anyway it would just 'be a formality seeing that the only occupant of the car had been removed, although the wreckage ghould be cleared, as it was & danger to other motorists, Why didn't that doctor come? . Hé thought of Jean. and shivered in spite of the sun, She had looked too ghastly, in fact, he had not supposed that anyone could look like that and not be dead. Perhaps he ought not to have dragged her about--supposing _ there had "been broken bones? O hell! rs Mrs. Gorst did not re-appear, but in due time Geoffrey Winton returned with the doctor and ivined Grant on the loggia, "I wonder if there's anything else a ghastly ashen'hue. "Jean, Jean," he whispered, as his fingers passed gently over her, face! She: was so immovable that he began to wonder whether perhaps she was| dead. = The thought struck him like a blow. and grasping her wrist he sought her pulse. Breathlessly he waited, but he fingers felt no answer- ing beat, "0 God!" he groaned, looking about him frantically. "I know!" Ripping open his watch, he held the inside of the lid in front of her lips. Yes, by jove, it was clouded! A sudden wild joy leaped up in his heart, but almost immediately it passed. She might lie --he must get help. Very gently Grant lifted the uncon- scious girl and 'carried her to his car, wrapped the rug around her and put her as flat as possible on to the back seat, She was long for it, but he arranged her head and shoulders as comfortably as possible, then calling Julia, he jumped into the driving seat. It struck him then, however, that she might hot have been alone and he leaped out again, ran to the wreckage and made a hasty 'examination, Having ascertained that no one else was there, with breathless haste Grant hurried back to his car and drove as fast as he dared down the winding road to Monte Carlo, He felt frdzen with fear, and every now and then flung a glance over his shoulder at the had not slipped. He tried also to imagine what had happened. Had she forgotten to drive on the right side of. the road. or had she been going the other way? It was difficult to tell from the way the wreckage was lying. And where should he take her now? Back to Les Palmiers? He supposed so. Much as he disliked the idea, it was nearer than the hospital. The back road leading to the villas was not over-smooth, and Grant slow- ed down as he took the turning, Im- mediately he saw that a car stood out- side the gates of the Villa Marguerite and that Helen herself stood by it talking to someone. With a sensation of immense relief he drew up behind the other car and jumped out, calling: "Mrs, Gorst!" "Good morning," Helen smiled, but instantly sobered on seeing his face. "What is it, Jerry?" { "There was an accident. Miss Gra- ham--Ilook!" He nodded towards: his car. "Good heavens!" "I--I found her about ten miles along the upper road. I was taking her back to Les Palmiers." The occupant of the other car, who happened to be none other than' Geof- frey Winton, joined them, "I say!" he exclaimed. ter bring her--" But before he could finish Helen broke in. 1% "I'll look after her. Jerry, please drive up to the door." Suiting the words, she began to pull wide the iron gates, "But look here, Helen, she was our guest, you know," Winton objected. Mrs. Gorst silenced him curtly, She was not going to have Jean taken to "You'd bet- Les Palmiers in that condition, She knew Doreen too well for that. "Nonsense, Geoffrey." I'd love to have her. Come." "Well: can't I do. anything?" "Yes, Go for Dr. Thomas, My telephone is broken. Bring him back with you." : "Right." Winton turned and drove off, J Never had Jerry Grant béen 'more grateful to anyone than at that me- ment he was to Helen for her calm efficiency, He had felt so utterly helpless as he drove those ten miles, go tortured with anxiety and doubt as to what he should do. At Helen's re- quest he carried Jean up the stairs into a sunny room and placed her on the bed," Then, obedient to her com-| mand, he went down again and waited on the loggia. Gred, the old butler, brought him a whisky and soda, of which he drank gratefully, then light up and down, "God, what a business," he thought, fretting because the doctor did mot cone, How could such a terrible thing have happened? Miss Graham looked as if she 'would be a steady girl on the back seat to see that shel I'can. do?" he dsked, "It's after lunch time." { "Lunch?" Grant stared at him dis- gustedly, then resumed his prowling. . Winton watched him and finally said: "You'll wear that rug, out." It seemed an eternity before Mrs. Gorst and Doctor Thomas came down, but they did at length and Helen did not fail to notice the tensity of the young man's face as he blurted out; "Well?" : "Jearf will be all right, Jerry," she reassured him with a smile, "She is very cut and bruised, but no bones are broken. Her head will take time to mend, that's all.' : "Whew! Grant took out his hand- kerchief and ran it over his forehead. "Might I have another drink?' he ask- ed apologetically, as he poured out a second peg. ' Helen smiled, = -- "We'd better all have lunch, Hea- ven knows what time it is." "I think I'd better go straight to the police. The smash out to be re- ported--especially as I have removed the. driver." Suddenly Helen looked at him at- tentively, - "By the way, wasn't there someone else in the car?' ' "No." "No?" repeated Winton, stupidly. : How peculiar, thought Helen, let- ting her mind run back over the pre- vious night. Could anything have happened since then to detain Euan? And if so» why had Jean gone off with- out him, seeing that it was for his sake alone that she was leaving the Riviera, "Are you sure?" "Quite. 1 Iooked everywhere, 1 thought someone else might have been injured. Why?" "Because Jean was supposed to be leaving with her brother." "0!" Grant frowned. "Her bro- ther?"? : "She did leave with him. At least she left 'our villa with him," Winton asserted, | i y "Perl.aps he had gone to get help?' the younger man suggested. "Ye--es." It did.not sound like Euan, thought Helen. More likely he would lie there and let Jean pick him up if she were able to. But where was he? "It's odd," she murmured. "I don't think she could have had anyone with-her, else they would have pulled Miss Graham out of the wreck- age before going off." "Um-m." 3 There was a momen't silence, 'then Grant said: "I'd better go to the po- 'lice; perhaps they'll know." blinking you've seen them." "May 17" Helen smiled at the eager trembling of his voice. Obviously he was: niore than eager to.return. "Please do," she said. "Thanks so much. I'll hurry!" Snatching up his hat Jerry Grant rushed out.of the door.
