Her voi was like a J'-v.-eb! thread running- through a fabric of gold brocade. MHrsh.i!l I'ayton had i oi.c to toe drawing room concert iir.der protect. Kuch affairs always bored him terribly but a.t tho first note of Anne Jourdon's nous, he had turned his had quickly toward the youu coloratura poprano, lntrfted at once, he waa very young fir.d very pretty. Under hrr ma of dark hair, hr roving blue black eyes met his own, reMed th'-re and challT.rd him. He flt the fire of her In hl. vins. Thprp -erned no longer a room iilld with Kp-eo tators. He fiw only th- lithe, wlllowly figure of a girl whos voice as waking echot Ln hid lonly heart. "Why flnn't you applaud, Marshall?" a.sk d Mr?. Pa)1on nearby. ' V'.j will huriy admit that'the girl ha wonderful power." With difficulty he turned his face n way from the. .smiling singer. '"Yes," he agreed quietly, "che has power." "Isn't h lr-orri2rit,ie?" Mrs. Tayton !mandrd of another j?uest. "I have never f-n fuc.h an indifferent rf,r?on. Why, Anne Jourdon thrilU me! To listen to hr voice, singing. Is llk- hearing the first burst of melody In pome blossoming tree, announeing th advent oi spring. It breathes the spirit of youth, of new life." "I didn't know that you were eo logical." said Marshall a little a.mazed. "Your comparison is -excellent. Her voice has the freshness and vrgor of youth, an you gay." "Shall we co over and meet her?" nuked Mr. Payton rising. "I think I'll take a turn on the

gallery while I tsmoke. If you don't mind. You go "with Mrs. Hamilton to greet the rel-brity." He was a hit shaken by now emotions. No Klence of a woman, however beautiful, had ever before ftirred his pulse to a quickened beat. No woman's vol-e had ever before .swept hi? heart strings Into the lilting melody of a. lovo jorip. Alone, pacing the wide gallery under friendly etars. he would pull himself together and forget th marines of a moment. He was too old to listen to the enchanting music of youth that somehow, in the right ffaon, had passed him by. He would put himself out of the way of danger, of what he felt for him would be madms.s indeed. A few 5tep led from the gallery Into a. sloping garden, heavy with the frasrrance of many flowers. At the end of a path, he Mopped, turned and stood there, an if he were waiting for someone to Join him. And presently a shadowy figure crossed the gallery and came straight down the gravelled walk toward him. He tossed away his cigar and held nut both hand?. "Of course you saw how deeply impressed I was with your pinging und with you," he added almost the rh;es of Pan and followed with my heart. "I am glAd that you liked my tnartc," Fhe answered quietly, a soft klnglnvr quality evident in her tones. i-"hall we sit here on this bench t It I a lovely place,1 ihe river there, the wooded slopes opposite and this terraced garden tdlvered in the rnoonliht" A light warf blew airly from her thoulden and he bnt quickly to help her adjust it. Their hands met for a moment, a moment tingling with rapture for him. An hour before, he -would have laughed at the absurdity of a man of the world interested only in business and in the reluctantly. "It was as If I heard amassing of a fortune, falling ln love at first U-ht. He had no right, of i-ourpe. to touch her hand, resting there like a petaled flower against her dark gown but some new born

rs.-ertlve power made Mm lean over

a.;;J lift that hand to his lips. "I think," he fald unsteadily, "that words are quite unnecessary between us. You ee how it La with me. Ivjve has com to me BwlfUy, overwhelmingly." "J have always felt that tragedy had marked me for her own." The iTirl clenched her small hands together In a frenzy of despair. "You are Marshall I'ayton. I met your wife a little while ago." When she had left hip, he still sat there, hia dark eyes brooding. He had not wanted to love. He had learned in late years to be content with his lot. It was disturbing to know that at the hrst note3 tf a golden throated s!nger, the book of youth could fall open again, revealing to hia world wean eyes the unread pages of love. Youth, to him for a long time had been a sealed book but wuddenly, at th touch of a girl's hand, old subdued longings claimed him again. It was evident that the girl herself had heard the fame call. Life was not all done for him yet, he reflected savagely. He was still young enough to take what the gods were to magically ofiering him. When he entered the crowded hall a little later, he saw a young army ofTlcer folding a scarlet cape around the singer's shoulders. Some People near Marshall were discussing the two. "He is a captain." said a voice. "They are devoted to each other. Anne is thinking of going to France to wing for the soldiers when he la ordered over." i-k a stranger caught the gossamer fabric of Marshall's new dreams and tore it relentlessly. He went to-

j wards Mrs. payton q-jlckly, hoping to jet away without encountering 'the young singer again but fate

"You must mt.et Anne Jourdon. Marshall," raid Mrs. Payton comrriandingly, lightly touching the girl's

! shoulder to attract her attention.

Marshall bowed over the hand she extended and apain the little electric thrill ran through him like a flame ln his blood. The eyes she lifted to his were wistful as if she too had caught a vision, only to be denied. "I want you and Capt. Jourdon to spend thin week end at our country

i place," began Mrs. Payton cordial

ly. "I expect to call on you tomorrow to press the Invitation until you can't refuse me. I will have a congenial crowd down, gome musicians, an artist or two, and

iseverai attractive girls for your

good looking brother." At that Marshall looked at the girl with a new light ln his eyes.

The officer then was not her husband. There were less complica

tions than he had supposed. He was in love with the gli!. He was going to tell her eo." "You are very' kind," murmured the girl a little confused. "My son, Marshall, here will pee to it that you not bored," said tha

! youthful looking Mrs. Payton proudliy. A little glad glance like a ray of I sunshine on a dark day passed be

tween the man and the girl. "Your Mother?" laughed Anne weakly. "How wonderful!" "What's wonderful about me?"

lasted Mrs. Payton crisply. "Aren't (singers temperamental. Captain? '.They do Fay the most astonishing things," she added, staring at tho 'receding figures of her son and the

girl.

The methods of reaching the same health victory for a whole nation

; at home as for an army abroad are

two-fold. First, the providing of a fund which will insure first-class medical attendance and hospital care wherever needed, for every member of the community who falls s!ck. Second, a more effective and intelligent diftrihution of the working force and skill of the medical and

! nursing professions.

And as of course the mot crying need for better and more adequate medical attention and sick care is among the great working masses of

to 5 percent of it. all of the schemes j proposed for adequate health Insur

which are now ln force and have !

been for from five to twenty years past in something like half the countries of Europe, notably England, Holland. Sweden, Belgium and Germany, provide, first of all, for the collection of a small weekly pre-

I i.ilum or rather set of premiums for j ach worker whoso income or wages i are below a certain fixed amount per i week, usually about 25 shillings a j wek in Kncland, or 20 marks a jweek as in Germany, which would ! be the practical equivalent of about

$ 1 f. a week here.

trachlnp positions do not generally enroll their names on the list. Then each physician whose name !s on the ijanel takes upon his books and formally report? quarterly upon the names of all those who have selected him as their medical attendant, rendering them whatever medical service. they may require. Fur this he receives a sum per capita, which cornea in England, for instance, to about J2 a year, with a small allowance over and above thia for the cost of medicine.

The remainder of th premium co to provide hospital car &cd

support of the worker and his famlhy while he is kk. This found" like rather a small if not positively insignificant sum. but when one comes to remember what a larce percental of the community fall into this cli.s amounting- in England to omthiiv-: like thirteen million names, it will be readily seen that th total addition to an individual doctor's income even at this low rat; mitrht be quite consideral.deIn Encland. for instance, it was calculated when Lloyd Georce's insurance net wa aut to ko into effect about riv year ago, that tk-
