Dear Margery Doom;
A girl friend Of mine is trying every
way she can to get my gentleman
friend to call on her. She has asked
him twice to my knowledge. He is true
to me and win not go, as he told me of
the invitations. We are not really en-
gagged, but there is an understanding
that we will be as soon as he gets a
raise. Do you think I ought to be
friends with herr. She thinks 1 know
nothing about it. Please tell me what
to do. WORRIED.
1t is not wise to have friends whom
you cannot trust. 1 would tell this
girl hat 1 know of her deceit. and
wished to end the friendship. 1t is the
wisest think to do. Nothing can be
meaner than for one girl to try to steal
another's sweetheart.

Try to become interested in other
things. Read interesting books and be
as much as possible with people, the
jollier the better. 1t is not good to sit
alone and brood. If you live in the

IN receipt of Rogers's telephone
~ message Crawford left the club
at once and, hailing a motor
cab, instructed the chauffeur to drivn5
him to the West End avenue house
as rapidly as possible. He wondered
who his visitor could possibly be.
Rogers had said that she was young
and pretty and that she was dressed
Tor Dime or the opera. This puzzled,
him. That a woman both young and
pretty SHOULD call upon him was not
remarkable. He knew many who an
swered to this description, but that one
should arrive hatless and in full eve
ming dress was. to say the least, NOT
usual. 1t was an opera night, to be.
sure, but he had made no engagement.

When he reached home he let him

hall and went into his den" in his
evening dress and with a gardenia
that he had picked up from the Dime
table ornamenting the lapel of hisa
coat. Nora had just concluded her im-
promptu toilet operation and thrust
the wet rag into the pocket of the
cloak. The hard rubbing had set her
checks aglow, and her eyes We're SPAR

very pretty.
When he opened the door Crawford
started with a-stonishment at Seeing

advancing toward her with both hands

her own, and he saw hat her arms
were bare. Her action also parted the
cloak sufficiently to reveal that she
was in deep decollete.
How beautiful you look!' he added.
with genuine enthusiasm.
Nora, in great confusion. hastily
withdrew her hands and pulled the
cloak about her.
1T was awfully good of you to

There are lots of ways to find out
how he feels without embarrassing
yourself by asking him a direct ques-
ton. Why do you not try pretending
a great interest in some other man !
Tell him that this other mai is very
serious II that you do not know
whether or not to accept him. Then
ask his advice. This will bring him
down to facts in no time. l imagine

year younger thar myself. 1 think a

and as I have ID mother to advise me
I don't know whether his intentions

ter kind. And, by the way, this mate
ria might as well be recommended right
now for the dress for the 1~2-year-old
girl. One looks among the blue, pink
and lavender shades, feeling that the
pastel tints must be used, since nothing
better is presented. But a peep at the
rich champagne colored linens, poplin-
cites and pongees reveals many pieces
of beauty not yet common on the mar
ket. This material in any weave will
look neat in self-trimming, though lace
imparts a more dressy effect.

Cleanliness VS.. Beauty.

h most important implement on
the toilet table of the girl who is de-
sirous of a fine complexion should be
her complexion brush, which should
be renewed frequently when the bris-
ties begin to show signs of wear Moth
ing can be done to improve the COM
plexion unless the skin be first of all
absolutely clean and this can only be
accomplished with plenty of hot water
and pure, unscented soap and the Wig
orous use of a good facial brush.
The girl who scrubs her neck we'll
into the hair in the back and does not
forget her chin in the front will never
have the following, cloudy throat
which the most expensive linen will
not hide.
Complexion lotions should be used
sparingly by the growing girl. She
does not need them.
If the skin is simply rough from
much outdoor life and a natural ten
dency to chapplng, try this simple oat-
meal lotion:
fake two tablespoonfuls Of oatmeal,
adding q quart of water, and let boil
for ten minutes. Cool and strain, and
to the liquid add the Juice of n large
ACillOh VI IHO ollloAA OiASoJ viz NCS
spoonful of alcohol.
Apply this with a bit of old table
linen which is absolutely clean. Leave
some of the lotion in the pores to soak
In, If you use it at night, or before
lying down to rest during the day.
If your skin is oily give it a night
and morning scrub with hot water,
but during the day wipe it off with
old linen dipped in the following lotion:
Pulverized boraX. one ounce; pure
glycerine, two ounces; camphor water
mot spirits of camphor), two quarts.
Above all things, bear in mind that
beauty is built on cleanliness. l know
of a girl who paid a hair-dresser $1.5O
a week to keep her elaborate coiffure
up to date, but, believe me, 1t was
wasted money, because there was an
ugly black ring around her neck which
a little cold cream, followed by a scrub
bling with the ACE brush, could have
removed. AS it was. the work Of the
hairdresser only served to emphasize
the lack of cleanliness.

There Is no way to make your halr

There is a shoe made with a stiff

They can be purchased at most of the

is sometimes the result of an affection

case where the patient was cured after
wearing braces for about a year. Her
condition was very bad, but now she

We vicited Nevada in the hope of
buying a few carloads of wild horses
that could be corraled, but SO far have
met with Indifferent success. We have
been shown good many horses in this
county, and while they are no doubt
worth the price asked, they are better
horses than we want. Owing to the
dull market at Indianapolis, there il
very little demand for good horses.''
How are times in Indiana, Mr..
Blair?' was asked.
Rather quiet was the response.
condition is probably due to
the approaching election, as business
is usually quiet during presidential
campaigns. =
What is the political outlook in
Indiana?'
1t is expected that the state will
be carried for Taft by . large ma
jority, as he is very popular in Indiana.
Owing to local issues, and the fast
that Indianapolis is Tom Taggart' 3
stronghold, it would not be surprising
if the Democrats succeeded in carry
ing Marion county, in which the state
capital is situated, but it looks as
though the state is safely Republican.
