What is your name?" "Why, it's That's funny! It's gone again. I have an idea it began with an S. What was it? Skeffington? Skillington?" "Sanderson?" "No; I'll get it in a moment. Cunningham? Carrington? Wilberforce? Debenham?" "Dennison?" suggested Archie, helpfully. "No, no, no. It's on the tip of my tongue. Barrington? Montgomery? Hepplethwaite? I've got it! Smith!" "By Jove! Really?"
"We're the family, Mr. Hawkes," ventured Alaric, helpfully. Mrs. Chichester's forebodings came uppermost. After the news of the bank's failure nothing would surprise her now in the way of calamity. What could this grave, dignified-looking man want with them? Her eyes filled. "Is it BAD news?" she faltered. "Oh, dear, no," answered Mr. Hawkes, genially. "Well is it GOOD news?" queried Alaric.
Mr Birdsey was an intelligent man, and he could see that Waterall's table-talk was for some reason getting upon Johnson's nerves. Like a good host, he endeavoured to cut in and make things smooth. 'I've heard great accounts of Algiers, he said helpfully. 'A friend of mine was there in his yacht last year. It must be a delightful spot.
Why can't these cats leave people alone?" "Oh, woman, woman!" I threw in helpfully. "Always interfering " "Rotten!" "And backbiting " "Awful!" "I shan't stand it." "I shouldn't!" "Look here!

"First we're twins; then we get whacked together; then we both get rowed by prefects; and I do a faint and you do a sort of fit.... But, I say, Rupert, look here; I want to ask you something: will people think I was a fool in everything I did, or will they think well, the other thing?

And yet this love of man as man must be realised before ever we can hope helpfully to lift up Christ and goodness for his acceptance.

We have spoken at some length about food and clothing as they affect health. Quite as important to health are rest and recreation.
