SBhe broke off deliberately, watched the Frenchman‘s face as he read the letter with the changing expressions which passed over it. Ast the end he looked up. "A thousand pardons, Mademoiselle," he said. "Of course, I did not realize, but naturally, who can have a greater claim upon our gratitude than you, who it seems have been one benefactor, with the Maharajah! Those adminrable aeroâ€" planes, which are in actual use hereâ€" and most valuable. I am most happy to receive you on behalf of His Highâ€" ness." ‘"That is why I came. The Maharajah has been invalided; he is in Ind‘a. He is, of course, anxious to know how those aeroplanes hive served their purpose. I, too, since I had a little to do wi‘h their design, and persuaded His Highâ€" ness to make the gift. T want to sond out a report ¢to him, if you â€"will supply me with some few details, if you will let me see the machines, perhaps some of their pilots, and talk to them." "But most certainly, most certainly! As you know, they have bzen attached to the Lafayette Squadron; they have had mainly American pilots." The young Commandant‘s manner«was rager now, almost excited. And in his office at Headquarters the Commandant was staring rather perâ€" plexedly through his glasses at a slim figure in severest tailored black, reâ€" lieved with white at collar and wrists, her eyes shadowed by a black velvet tricorne. "You realize that it is against orders â€"your presence here at all, Mademoiâ€" selle," he said irritably. "I do not know why or how you came." "I brouzht this letter from Paris. Monsicur le Commandant, from the Minister of Aviation," Leonie said. "I think it will explain that I have someâ€" I will not call it a right, but at any rate an interest â€"a claim of a kindâ€"" "Anh! that interests meâ€"since I an half an Amsrican," Leonie said. "And the other half, I wcoiuld swear is Prench!" "You are right, Moniseur le Com mandant."

His interest in her was not lessened whizn they stcood beside his aeroplane ‘n its hangar. For this most unexpectâ€" ed dame shewed real knowledge of the noints of a machine and discussed the various types in a maiiner which comâ€" pletely staggered Pete Walters. "You must have studied airplanes," he commented. "I‘m interested in them," Leonie said, layinz her hand on the nacelle of the machine almost as one might on the flank of a favourite horse. "And I can see you‘re fond of this one," she added. "Â¥cu‘ve made quite a pet of it." Walterrs surveyved the aeroplane with honest pride. "Well, yes," he confessed. "I‘ve gone to some trouble to have her individual." "You have succsed>d," Leonie agifeed. On one side of the machine was painted the name ‘"Pete" in large letters. All the upper parts were camouflaged in huge irregular blotches of red and green â€" "Wonderful how little you can see of her from above against the earth, especially when she‘s sitting c@own," the pilot commented.

"All I ask you to do is to put me down behind the French lines at Verdun, as close as possible to the front tronchesâ€"and leave me there." added, very deliberately: "I want you to take me with you toâ€"morrow."

When if you refuse to help me, you will be losing a chance to service Franceâ€"to save France?" s "If I have it in crders from the Commandant I‘ll take you.

If you do this thing, someday, when you know the whole truth, you‘ll be glad and proud that I gave you the chance to help. Won‘t you take my word for itâ€"and take me to Verdunâ€"voluntarily?"

Asthma is Often Due to Sensitiveness to Certain Substances A farm boy living 40 miles from a large city found that during his visits t‘o the city, lasting two or three days to a week, he was absolutely free of asthma,â€"â€"and an examination of his chest.by.a physician in theâ€"city revealâ€" ed no trace of asthma; yet on the farm asthmatic attacks were frequent and severe. Skin tests were made and it was found that horse dander was the cause of his asthma. Aimilar cases are aften seen now and the offending substances are found to be cat‘s fur, pollen orâ€" ganisms and gasses in the air, and even certain foods.

Cushine. in Ohio State Medical Journal, point out that asthma is an individual proâ€" blem and define asthma as a spasm or port of all other air tubes going down to the lungs. When the spasm occurs the air, of course, cannot get out of the lungs,. Thus air remains in the lungs that should come out and naturally as it is nCtb as rich in oxygen as it should be the blood circulating in the lungs does not get properly purified. Poppy Day Big Success in Timmins and Schumacher Drs, Stanley E. Dorst and Ethel L. Hopphan, University of Cincinnati. The cause of the spasm that closes or partly closes the air tubes and causes the violent coughing in an effort to get a free passage ‘of air is often senâ€" sitiveness to foods, pollens, extracts used on the skin, gasses in the air, and bacâ€" teriaâ€"small organisms. Drs. Dorst and Hoppham report 62 cases which were extensively studied. All the patients had well established asthma of at least two years‘ duration before treatment was given. As all cases of asthma are not due to this sensitiveness to certain substances, each of theseâ€"cases had been given skin tests and shown to be sensitive to a particuâ€" lar substance and then was treated by vaccines of that purticular substanceâ€" food, pollen, bacteriaâ€"for four to eight months. Thirty of the sixtyâ€"two patients were improved; twentyâ€"two were distinctly better, that is they had a light atack of ashma occasionally, and ten cases showed no improvement. The thirty patients who are well had an average period of treatment lasting over fifteen months. Of the twentyâ€"two who are improved but not cured a large proporâ€" tion did not continue treatment for over three months because they felt so much better. The poin‘t then is that a certain numâ€" ber ‘vf asthma cases are due to sensiâ€" tiveness to substances and vaccines of these substances used for a certain length of time will cure half the cases and cause improvement in oneâ€"third more. Food Allergy "What is one man‘s food is another man‘s poison" is an old saying but the truth of it is being proved almost daily by leading research physicians throughâ€" out the world. Some individuals are overâ€"sensitive to certain foods and other substances and will have asthâ€" matic attacks, head colds, snuffy nises, pains in abdomen, when they eat these foods. *"Food Allergy‘ (No. 106) by Dr. Barton tells how to discover the offendâ€" Ing foods and what to do about them.
