THAT EVENING,

Unaccountably, Philip be came furious when Stella mentioned it to him,

But a while later he came to her, penitent. "I'll make it up to you," he said tenderly. "I'm sorry the kitten is gone. I'll buy you a hundred of them."

Her eyes were sad. "I don't think I'll ever have an- other. This one meant sO much to me."

He was watching her. "Be- cause Ward gave it to you?" She jumped up. "Ward, Ward. Ward. Always. Ward! If you can't rid yourself of that iden you'll—”

"I'll go mad," he returnedd evenly. "Is that what you wanted to say?"

Now Philip came back and the galety was resumed. Then, after the second bottle of wine, Philip stated his pro- position. He wanted Ward to come and work at the fac- tory. Mr Black, his chief engineer, had left and he was offering Ward the position at... twice the salary he was get- ting in Scotland.

Philip grasped his hand. "Then you accept? That's wonderful." He raised his glass aloft. "May we all still be together ten years from now just us we are to-night. Stella? Ward? To three."

WARD LEFT THE STEEL WORKS early that day and stopped in to have a chat with Stella. The moment he began to speak, she stiffened. It was about Mr Black. He had heard why Black had left. What was the matter with Philip? Why did he became as obstinato as a child sometimes? It was unexplain- able.

"Stop it. Ward, I won't discuss Philip behind his back."

Ward was amazed "But Stella, I'm asking you to help me. You're the only oris who has any influ ence over him." She stood there, facing him angrily, and finally ho turned to the door. "Well then- there's nothing more for me to say. Goodnight."** like da

Word nodded. "Philip's hand- ling the men the wrong way."

The men, however, weren't going to stand for it. They had always trusted their bosses to give them n square deal. They had worshipped Phillp's father. Now Philip had come along and they didin't under- stand him nt.all,

"And Stella," Ward concluded, "you've got to talk to him. You musi."

She looked away, "All right, I can try. But Word, I don't think he'll yield an Inch." Her eyes fill- ed with tears and she twisted her fingers together.

"Stop! Stop! It's fascinating but I don't understand a word,"

She looked up and suddenly he paled.

Ward followed her gaze. "Hello, Philip. Are you back already?"

Philip was well pleased with himself. He had certainly taken Stella by surprise. "Obviously,"

He sat down and sald lightly. "Sorry I didn't wire. I finished in London much sooner than I ex- pected," He turned to Ward.' "Thank you for taking Stella out."

"You don't have to thank me". Ward smiled. "Thank Stella for coming. You know, Phillp, we were talking about you to-day-"

Philip seemed amused. "What a depressing subject. Couldn't you think of anything more romantic?" "Look here Phillp." Ward said, It's about the housing project, I know it's hard for a man in your position to reverse a decision. It takes courage, but believe me, f you do, the men will respect you for . We all shall."

Philip's voice was thin. "Well, as it happens, I don't 'want respect. I want obedience! Do you under- stand?" He smiled. "I think per- haps we'd better drop this discus- sion. I might get angry."

Stella put her hand on Ward's arm, "Ward. Let's go."

Philp waited until they were at the door. Then he went to the clerk on the desk. "Put Mr An- drew's dinner on my bill please. How much do I owe you?"

"Leaving us already, Mr Mon- reli?" the clerk asked. He opened his ledger.

Many of the great men and women of to-day were sensitive, highly-strung children

But with sensitive children there are dangers that have to be watched during childhood

WHEN a child is highly-strung

and sensitive, it depends in many ways on you whether he'll develop into a fine human being or not.

You see, a highly-strùng child has got all the qualities that are necessary to put him for ead away ahead of other children. He's alert, quick on the up-take, keen in his reactions,

But it is in this very mental and - physical make-up of the chlid that the danger Res. He lives more in-. terusely, reacts more vividly to every little thing in his surround- ings. That's why the bringing up of such children needs far more Insight on the part of the parents than the bringing-up of ordinary children.

Many such brilliant children have falled in life. They've grown up weak. easily-led arid over - sensitive, simply because- their parents did not understand certain health warnings in child- hood.

When you notice that your child is off his food, or that he looks pale, puffy under the eyes, that he's rather nervous and irritable or gets tired too easily, then you should act quickly.

All these are

warning signa that the child is using up his nervous energy more quickly than ho's replacing it. And it is at night, during leto, that these Hores of nervous energy should be replaced. If they are not re- placed, the nervous atrain on the child gets worse and 'worse. He is suffering from Night Starva- tlen.

If you give your child Horlicks every night at bedtime, his tired- ness, palencsa and "nerviness" Will

disappear. Horlicks, by guarding against Night Starvation, replaces nervous energy during sleep, strengthens nerves, and builds appetite. Your child will grow up strong and healthy, able to make the most of his special qualities,

Start your child on Horlicks to- night. Horlicks is obtainable at eli good stores.
