With blood-pressure as the basis for classâ€" ification, we would have 3 groups: average, above average and below town. I can’t go on living on you aver-age. . . forever.” Ihgh blow-pressure recewes so Peters’ bullet head shot forward. much attention that we are apt to overlook hypotension, or low blood- pressure which is the more common variant from the average. In gen- era], the average blood-pressure of women is lower than that of men, while Orientals are below Europeans and Americans. The importance and significance of low blood-pressure depend upon its cause and the conditions with which it is associated. During an attack (of influenza and other germ~caused diseases, the blood-pressure usually falls and it may remain down for some time. This indicates the need for a longer stay in bed for such patients, with sufficient rest during convalescence. Rest is the great healer and restorer. Tuberculosis and other chronic disv’ eases usually are accompanied by a low (blood pressure. of certain anaemjas and heart dis- orders. In such cases, it is obvious that the underlying cause is the im- portant point. Then there are those whose blood pressure is below average for no 2113-. parent reason. Frequently, they are slender, narrow-chested, long-waisted individuals. For them. low blood- pressure is not. in itself. a menace This is also truel I It was more an accusation than a question. licked ?” - Jeff literally hurled himself to his Ifeet. lclear blue eyes were clouded. and a !face meant to be happy was set in grim lines. ‘ened.

His mind set. lJeff would go. Jim knew it and it made him heart-sick. He determined to use his last line of attack. “HOw about â€" Anne?" He put it as softly as casually as he could.

Those who suffer no inconvenience need' no treatment, but any who tire. too easily need help. Your doctor should be your coulrisellor if you have low blood-pressure. He can help you to direct your life to the best advantage. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation. 184 College Street.

He'd make enough out of it. even if they fired him when Christmas came. to hang on a few months more â€" and then the break w0uld' come. “I know it will,” Jim insisted. “I can feel it in my bones that you’ll find the job you wan; and Anne too, if you'll stick it out." To every one of Jrff's grumbled dissents. his friend found a ready and irrefutable answer. It meant a lot to him to have Jeff happy. He’d known him since the younger man had been a schoolboy and he felt very genuinely that for him to give up his search for the girl he loved and a job on his own would do things to him that he could rever completely outlive.

Among other things it told Mr. McFardle “that the appliâ€" cant was definitely executive cali- bre.’ “So you uh, want to work uh, in d-pahtmunt staw'.’” Mr. McFardle bent a piercing eye on Jeff and then without waiting for a reply jumped into a long discussion of the advant- ages and disadvantages of such work. When. he. finished, Mr. McFardle bent his head backward, put his hands heâ€" hind it and gazed at a crack in the ceiling. Jeff merely kept quiet and wondered what was coming next. Mr. McFardle's period of medita- tion came to an end as suddenly as it had begun. With a quick gesâ€" ture, he brought both hands down on the ‘desk in front of him and‘ once more stared Jeff in the eye. Here, it could be seen, was the dy- namic executive at. his most dynam- ic. “Will you staht t'day?” He hard- ily waited for the young man's nOd iof acceptance. “Then you’ll be inna ipogo sticks," Mr. McFardle announc- ed dreamily.

A portly man, his hand clutched tightly by a small boy happened by. That was one of the things. Jeff, unaccustomed to the pogo stick, gave a desperate leap in trying to keep his balance .and crashed grandly to the floor. That was the other. The small boy, leaping up arid down wit l happiness at. the sight screamed Ion/ill: “I wnnna have on like that!” His portly companion introâ€" duced himself to Jeff, at lergth director of amusement and athletics for a large private school. “Came here to select something for all the boys. Looks like a healthy exer- cise.” A wistful expression cross-ed his face intimating a fugitive hope that the ‘healthy’ features of pogo sticks might include enough bumps to reduce his little charges to Occa- sional quiescence. “I’ll order 350,"- he decided. 'That night, Mr. McFardlc in study-' ing the tally sheets found the mam- mioth single sale and summoned theI senior clerk who sadly admitted that the new man had made the sale. Mr. McFardle became dynamic. His fists crashed down to the desk. “Zecative I'calihre. Just what I said. Can’t hold him dowm.” The next morning Jeff found that ;he had been promot- ged. There followed another lengthy -round of classes in which he learned' fall that a selection manager is sup- i’posed to know.

Then it came again. “Jefffileffâ€"Jeff Lob- or!” He tumed quickly leaving the de- termined woman clutching her kiddie car, just in time to see Anne's face sinking into a swirling crowd sur~ rounding his desk. Her face was white and pinched and he was sudâ€" denly grateful to the crisp yOung woman who had taught him what to- do with a fainting customer. Hisl rangy bulk thrust through the mob and he reached her side in an inâ€"‘ stant. He lifted her in his arms, and carried her to the manager‘s” office. While doing so, he managed: to signal a clerk to take his place‘ at the desk. 5 Mr. McFardlc. who had witnessed the incident followed, wringing his. hands.

Anne, whose. eyes: had opened a trifle, sized up they situation. “I won‘t leave without lion," she announced firmly. giving Jeff an opportunity to persuade her. This he did, and she made him take“ just. long enough to make a real im- pression. Finally she consented onl condition that he see her home per-l sonally. His face wreatth in smiles. Mr. McFardlc consented. Jeff criuld hear him as they left, muttering to himself: “A real zecativc type â€" just like I've always said."

When things move fur you at Brickclt'sâ€"- they move! Over steaming cups of Coffee in a nearby restaurant, Jeff heard her satisfac- story. It was pitifully like so many you can hear from so many young hopefuls who come to this town. High hopes â€" great ambitions. Then dis- couragement after discouragement and finally a grim struggle to keep going without losihg self respect. “At first I was too proud to write â€" and then, well Jeff, I just couldâ€" n't.” His hands closed firmly around hers. “I’m not making much," he said, ‘â€"â€"but I guess I can take care of both of us.

He real- ized that since his first day at Bric-, kett’s he had thought nothing of his chosen career â€"â€" and the realization, at first stunning created a second. “Honey,” Jeff said and his voice was filled with high confidence. “I don't know what kind of an engineer I might have made, but I know you need taking care of and that‘s what executives can do," he thought of the crisp young woman's â€" a true executive can handle any situation â€" “and you know, I‘m the executive type."
