FOR LOVE OF POLLY

By Rachel Mack (Copyright, 1938, NEA Service, Inc.)

“Love Laughs at the Doctor,” a new serial story, starts tomorrow on this page.

CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE MERICA was alarmed. The

_ English had settled with the |.

French; and now a fleet of warships no longer needed to fight Napoleon was free to move against the United States. Soldiers too. Down at Bermuda, General Ross’ seasoned British Army had gone aboard Admiral Cockburn’s impressive ships, and their destination was the American coast. Norfolk was sieged. Hampton was burned. By the middle of July the enemy was ascending the Potomac with a purpose. * New. Englanders who had opposed the war or regarded it indiffcrently suddenly came awake to patriotism. Up in Boston Mr. Cabell Banks, senior, was turning six of . his best merchant ships into privateers and was speaking proudly of “my son, Capt. Banks of the Gray Gul.” . . . Yankee capital was being released, new military companics raised, merchant shippers were taking out letters of marque almost to a man. And yet, had this happened in time? The northwestern frontiers were exhausted from holding at bay the Indians who had allied them- _ selves with the English. And in Washington, no defense had been planned to save the Capitol. President Madison, who had been called too aggressive, was now spo- * ken of as a laggard with a donothing policy. New England genslemen were shouting: “Gad! doesn’t he think Cockburn means what he says about burning Washington?” # FJ o

NE hot summer day Dick said to Polly, “I'm going to Washington tomorrow by coach.” “Whatever for?” Polly asked. It was :ugust, and little Richard was cutting some very bag teeth. His Uncle Dick and his medical books had been a great help in this trying time. “What will you do in Washington, Dick?” Polly demanded. “Offer my services. I hear they've horses to spare down south. I've enouzch put by to pay for an or- _ dinary mount of my own. I can’t walk. but I can e, and I'll join any cavalry unit they want to put me in. I've got to do my part, Polly.” x “Yes” Polly agreed, feeling weak with surprise. She had not thought of the war reaching out and laying bold of lame Richard. “I'll get your clothes ready, Dick. What will you want to take?” And so it came about that Dick Chelsey found himself the sole occupant of a stage coach approaching Washington on the steamingly hot cay of Aug. 22. He seemed to be the only person wanting to get to Washington; the highway was filled with people going out. of it, chiefly women and children. Dick found the capital to be in a; state of suspended action. Congress had. adjourned after a day "of fasting and prayer. Business houses were closed. Flimsy defenses were being thrown up near the bridges that commanded the eastern approach. Archives of the State ment had been put into linen sent to a Virginia farm- .

by the Patuxent River and were |

only seven miles distant. These were in pursuit of Commodare Joshua Barney and his sailors whom they had chased out of Chesapeake Bay and up the Patuxent. When Barney burned his boats and struck inland they had followed, and when he took his stand, the Battle of Bladensburg occurred. '

Dick was among the volunteers from Washington who fought with Barney, and a motley crowd they w e r e — shopkeepers, gentlemen farmers, schoolboys, Congressmen, Senators, and Negro slaves—anyone, in fact, who could carry a gun in the defense of Washington.

The English used fire roekets. This frightened the pack mules of the Americans; a stampede started which ended in a retreat. Pellmell into Washington went the routed army, through the city and up the Frederick road toward open country. When the English had rested and recovered they followed in good marching order. Many lay wounded at Bladensburg, among these Dick Chelsey. That night hé lay in a ravine undiscovered, too weak to call for help. But he had stanched his own wound with a handkerchief. Against the blackness of the night he saw the sky flame red for long hours, and he knew he had failed to save Washington. ; » » #

HE Selle bitterly as he thought 0 Ss useless little gesture—: his offered life. Was he 2 fool, or had he touched the stars? A strange sense of lightness filled him, for he had lost much blood. But before dawn a downpour of rain fell on his upturned face and saved him. It was the same rain that stopped the spreading flames in Washing-

At dawn someone found Dick Chelsey and carried him to a farmhouse nearby, and he knew that he would live and that life was sweet, whether he had been a fool or not.

Mind Your Manners

Test your knowledge of correct social usage by answering the following questions, then checking against the authoritative answers below: ' 1. Should anyone but rela-' tives and close friends be notified of a baby’s birth? 2. If .one is notified of a - baby’s birth is it necessary to send the child a gift? 3. How are friends at a distance usually notified of a baby’s birth? 4. Should a formally worded announcement not go to the persons who are asked to be E9dpatents? . May one tactf refuse to be a godparent? ly

What would you do i You are asked to be the godparen of a friend’s child a) Accept the responsibilit Exactly. snd give the child 4 on the of - tening? - y his eis (b) Accept the bility but make no ronal by (c) Give the baby a gift, but say you would rather not be a godparent?

Answers 1. No.

2. Not necessary, but gracious. 3. By a telegram or a note. 4. No. They should either be seed personally, or be sent a note. : : 5. No, and shouldn't try.

. « . While he lay recovering, the English fleet bombarded Ft. McHenry over at Baltimore (he could almost hear the guns). And when the beautiful American flag stood fast through the night a mild and lovable young lawyer from Georgetown (he was a prisoner looking on, and his name was Francis Scott Key) took an envelope from his pocket and wrote a poem called “The Star-Spangled Banner,” which he happily set to a London coffeehouse tune. . . . And so, even in this beautiful blood-soaked anthem that celebrates. their struggle, England and America were irrevocably joined. : Dick went home by stage coach in November. And around the New Year when the treaty of Ghent was already signed, old Andrew Jackson defended New Orleans in a useless, bloody battle. When it was over, gallant Sir Edward Packenham and the flower of the English army lay dead there. 2 » # O Polly, this was utterly heartbreaking. She wept for days because of it, and because of American men who lay dead at sea, just as cruelly. She thought of her Jerry as among them. And then one day there appeared a strange brig in Lyme harbor. Trepid Chelsey came home with the news that a fine big vessel named the May Queen was casting anchor there. It meant nothing to anybody. Not until Jerry Whitfield came striding through the picket gate, looking browner and leaner, tired and older, and said with his cap in his hand: “Does Capt. Trepid Chelsey live here?” . . . Not till then did the May Queen’s arrival have meaning. Polly went flying from the house into his arms; and though one of his arms was stiff from a wound, he held her -crushingly close. And when she cried ‘salty tears on his face, his own mingled with them, unashamed. . “I've. a ship of my own, Polly,” he said. “I'm a man of property now.” “Oh!” Polly said. “Is the May Queen: your own: . . . Well, I've a contribution too. Your baby son is a year and eight months old. His name is Richard Jeremiah. Come in and see him—” She thought for a moment that Jerry Whitfield was fainting, and after that she thought his expression of dismay was very comical. “Before night falls,” she surprised him yet further by saying, “I want you to take me on your arm to our ship, walking very slowly past Mr! Pell’s house.” 2 J 2 HE young Jerry Whitfields have settled in Polly’s old home at Lyme, for Dick Chelsey has gone to medical college down at New Haven, and old Trepid needs his daughter and her children around him.

The house has a new wing; fresh white paint covers all, and within there ‘are some impressive new mahogany pieces made by Duncan Phyfe, the furniture man. Polly has her “help” in the pinepaneled kitehen, as a sea captain's wife should, but: of an evening she sits before the open fire tenderly making by hand her husband’s shirts. When he comes home from sea in his merchant ship, the May Queen, it’s as a lover coming home to his sweetheart. Last trip he brought her an ivory carved fan from China, and a little Mandarin coat, embroidered in lotus flowers. These things, and another, are too much for Mrs. Pell. The other thing in their intimate friendship with Mr. Cabell Banks, junior, of Boston and his wife—that.girl that was the wealthy Prudence Winthrop. : She says, “You'd think Polly Chelsey ‘Whitfield would be stuck up, but she’s not. It beats all. I believe she’s too simple.

HE articles previously published in this column about sinuses have aroused a great deal of attention. Certainly there is more infection of the sinuses now than there used to be. ol Since the condition manifests itself frequently with severe Hheadache, discharge: from the nose, disturbance of the sense of smell, and similar unpleasant symptoms, the person who suffers with such an infection wants not only immediate relief from his symptoms but ‘also if possible a permanent cure.

Unfortunately sinuses tend to bereinfected or to become chronic in their infection and complete. cure is often difficult. The exact cause of an infection in the sinus is usually a germ which sets up an inflammation in . the membranes which line the sinus. It must again be pointed out that the sinus itself is a vacant space surrounded by tissue and that it is this] surrounding membrane which suffers from the infection. We know, however, that anything which will interfere with the ventilation through the nose, such as a narrow passage, adenoids in the back of the nose, injuries which bend over the bones of the nose, or repeated infections within the nose may be a contributing factor in the infection of the sinus. : : 3 ” ” : N ‘infection of the sinuses begins exactly like an ordinary cold and it is sometimes hard to distinguish where the cold begins

versa. The symptoms vary in ‘their extent and severity according: to- the: nature of the germs that are res ble and the extent of the infection. If there is plenty of space in the nose, if the discharge is eliminated, the symptoms are likely to be less severe than in instances in which the discharges from the infection are dammed back into the As with any infection anywhere in the body the important procedure in the sinus is to get drainage. This is sometimes aided by various washing and suction procedures which ‘are
