Two in a Taxi
By DOROTHY DOUGLAS

There was only one taxi in sight.
Two persons made their way toward
1t from opposite sides of the street.
pennsylvania station, pleased"
simultaneously two voices reached
the chauffeur's ears; a feminine voice
on the right side and q masculine one
from the left.
The chauffeur looked from one to
the other applicant.
Guess you will have to toss for It,"
ne said good naturally.
There can be no tossing" put in
the girl hurriedly. II absolutely must
catch the 6:14 train"
And r. am equally in a hurry"
said the man.
We'll, there's rom inside for two,"
suggested the chauffeur as he began
to take his seat.
The girl and the man looked across
the machine at each other with ex-
pressionless faces.
Since there Is no other way--it
will have to do" Harmony Weller
stepped into the taxi.
Il suppose it WILL" said David
Green as he entered from the other
side. He seated himself without ap-
parently seeing the wicker suit case
that acted as barrier on the wide
seat.
The short trip to the station was
made in absolute silence. The girl
sat straight and looked out the cab
window so that all Green saw of her
face was the firm line of her profile.
When the taxi whirled into the sta
ton, David Green watched the girl
lean forward and. examine the regis.
ter of fares. Then he saw her ex-
tract half dollar. The face regis
tered 60 cents and Green realized
that his companion intended to pay
half the amount. Under the circum-
stances, he felt that she was taking
the right course and he remained pas
sive not attempting in any way to
break the silence.
The man and the girl stepped from
the taxi on opposite sides and each
handed the chauffeur a half dollar.

THREE CURED OF ECZEMA

when a child, I suffered eight
years with eczema. I could not sleep
at night, and had sores all over my
chest. We had doctors and mono
could do any good, until my mother
saw the advertisement Of the Cuti-
cura Remedies in the paper. We used
the Cuticura Soap, Ointment and
Resolvent, and they cured me of
eczema I also used them on my five
children. Two of them had eczema
very badly. When my children had
eczema, l was not worried at all, as
I knew the Cuticura Remedies would
do their work. They had sores all
over their heads. their hair would fall
out, and they would scratch all night
and day. They had it on their heads,
face, and in back Of the ears so that I
thought their ears would drop of. I
washed their heads and bodies with
Cuticura Soap and they are as clean
as the driven snow. Cuticura Soap
and Ointment also cured my children
of ringworm. I would not be without
the Cuticura Remedies. They are
wonderful" (Signed) Mrs. Violet

WOMAN AND THE HAIRPlN

Have you ever realized the number
OF uses to which common wire hair

Who has had recourse to this handy

eral utility. The proof of a woman's
mechanical genius is in the number of
ways she can apply the hairpin.
Few women take naturally to or.
binary tools. They use hammers in a
gingerly and ridiculous manner, or
they pound their fingers with them;
they put blunt pointed nails along in
stead of across the grain, and then
wonder why it splits; they use screw
drivers principally to pry open boxes,
and they think pincers were made to
crack nuts with. Blu. they know how
to manage a hairpin.

Unfrayed Scallops.

Some housekeepers object to the
buttonholed scallop on embroidery, be-
cause it trays In washing. This can
be overcome in several ways. The
surest Is to buttonhole second time
over the purled edge, when the seal
lop has been worked and cut out.
Another method is to run the out
line of the scallop with machine
stitching before buttonholing. Or in
cutting leave a narrow margin and
turn back under the scallop and hem
to the material.
II these are too much trouble, at
least wash the linen before cutting
out The material shrinks and Is much
less likely to fray Where the entire
piece is not washed, the embroidered
edge can be dipped in lukewarm wa
ter for few minutes, then ironed dry
and later cut out close to the purled
edge

Looked Right and Left.

The first smile which had dawned in
Harmony Weller's eyes was when she
turned from the amused glance of
the chauffeur
She went hurriedly into the huge
station and was lost in the crowd.
David Green walked briskly toward
the train which he boarded only after
having seen his companion = the taxi
step into the. same train. He fol-
lowed her and took seat behind her.
From his point of vantage he
watched every movement of Harmony
Weller. The girl was making a fran
tic effort to keep her mind as we'll

she held. There was a woeful droop
to the corners of her mouth but her

by any chance know of his nearness.
The train moved swiftly on and
darkness crept into the outer world.

make her way toward the dining car

entered his heart gave a quick jump.

self he watched tinge of color
sweep into Harmony's face. But
through the long meal she scarcely
raised her eyes above the level of his
tie pin.
David Green's heart was hammer
ing as 1t had not hammered in his life
time and into his eyes had come a
light that, had the girl opposite seen
she might have recognized. At 1t was
she kept her eyes studiously away
from his.
She was the first to arise Green
watched her and 1t was then that he
realized the fact that the train had
been at a standstill for some fifteen
minutes.

gers that train was derailed some
few miles beyond and that further
run for the night was impossible.
They had stopped at a small vii
lage.
Green watched Harmony Weller
while she questioned the porter. A
moment later she took her light bag
and left the train. Green questioned
the porter in his turn and learned
that the one hotel Of which the vi.

lage boosted was within easy walking
distance.
Green sprang swiftly for his suit
case and went out into the night. He
walked quickly until he was only a
few steps behind the girl. A few mo-
ments later they entered the small
inn from opposite sides of the
veranda.
"Have you room for tonight?"
simultaneously two voices reached
the desk clerks ears.
We've only one left in the house. "
he said.
Swift color swept the girls face
and, completely unstrung, she turned
and fed to the moonlight veranda.
Green swore under his breath then
thought quickly.
"Give it to me. pleased"
He got the key none too soon. The
small Office was crowding with pas
sengers from the train.
David went out the door by which
he had seen Harmony Weller make
her exit. His own nerves were per-
haps no more steady than the girls.
He stood looking out over the village
streets but there was no sign Of her.
He went down the steps and looked
to right and left. Distracted, he
started slowly one way and then an
other.
"David-David!."
A small voice reached his ears and
David's heart responded to its ap.
peal. He looked about; the voice had
come from the dark end of the hotel
veranda. David went back up the
steps three at a time and took Har-
mony Weller out of the big chair in
which she was curled and into his
arms. She was weeping and the tears
dropped on the lapels of his coat.
You've been perfect-ly-hor-riG
Ito me, David"
He frightened the arm about her.
Il have only done what you asked,
dear-you told me never to speak tc
you again and in order to avoid do
ing so I was on my way to the wesi
you see I couldn't forget YOU"
"And-and I was o. trip to try
to forget you-David."
Harmony" David asked, did you
happen to notice anyone in clerical
garh on that train-I'm sure you saw
him--he is a very good looking man."
II haven't noticed any man-since
you-stopped loving me-"
"But saw him."
Tho meaning in David's voice was
unmistakable. Harmony'4 head went
down on the lapels.
Il say" continued David, now that
you know love you, wouldn't you
take some interest in seeing a good
looking man?'
Il see one now" laughed Harmony,
but I don't mind seeing good
looking minister"
Here is your ring back" David
said as he slipped the big diamond on
her finger. "But this you can't have
until we find that minister" He
showed her the plain band. Where
is your suit case, dear?"

BUSINESS WOMEN
A Lunch Fit for a kina,

An active and successful young
lady tells her food experience:
Some years ago / suffered from
nervous prostration, induced by con.
tinuous brain strain and improper
food, added to great grief.
II was ordered to give up my work,
as there was great danger Of my mind
failing me altogether. My stomach
was in bad condition nervous dyspep.
sia, I think now and when Grape
Nuts food was recommended to me, !
had no faith in 1t. However, tried
1t, and soon there was marked i'm.
provement in my condition.
Il had been troubled with faint
spells, and had used stimulant to
revive me. I found that by eating
Grape-Nuts at such times l was re.
lieved and suffered no bad effects,
which was great gain. AS to my
other troubles-nervous prostration.
dyspepsia, etc.-on the Grape-Nuts diet
they soon disappeared.
Il wish especially to call the atten-
ton of office girls to the great benefit
I derived from the use Of Grape-Nuts
as noon luncheon. Eas thoroughly
tired of cheap restaurants and ordin-
airy lunches. and so made the expert.
ment of taking a package Of Grape
Nuts food with me, and then slipping
out at noon and getting q nickel's

different kinds of canvas gives
stitches Of any desired size.
Most of these can be found in white
cream and ecru, and many of the So
called art linens come in varied tones
of any given shade.
Though the old-time embroider1es
were rarely done on cotton goods we
think nothing Of putting handsome
stitchery on cotton materials sheer
and opaque. 1t is better however.
to make such embroidery sketchy, as

lNEN is perhaps more used than
any other material when en-
broidery is to be done for art,
household purposes and wearing ap-
parel.
Much as we use linen nowadays, for
our table, our beds and our bodies, 1t
Is not new medium for embroidery.
1t is ages old, as for centuries linen
embroidery has been a domestic in
dustry in foreign lands.
This old work is now being copied
widely and the special work belong
ing to different lands is easily recog-
nized. Thus the old Spanish, Italian
and Greek embroidery on the linen
was chiefly done in one color-a pur.
pie red. A great variety of colors
mixed with gold and silver thread is
characteristic of Oriental work
similar richness Of coloring, but
generally without the gold and silver
touches, marks the Hungarian, Slav.
and Swedish peasant work. Old blue
red and yellow are the predominating
tones.
the sixteenth and seventeenth cen.
turtles was done on very fine linen
sometimes in colors, but more often in
white. with intricate stitchery and
much cut and openwork. The modern
girl, however, rarely has patience for
this exquisite stitchery of the olden
times. Her work is more splashy and
less beautiful.
For this reason the quality of the
linens used today are changed, the
threads being round and coarser, so
they can easily be counted to make
easier the copying of the design. The
old embroideries, especially the Ital.
ian ones, were done on very fine linen.
In choosing a linen to embroider it
should be and-bleached, and without
much dressing. The threads should
be round, especially IL any drawn
work is to be combined with the en-
broidery. There are special art lin
ems for fancy work which are quite
distinct from the linens used for
sheets and pillow cases.
Unless you are sure you can detect
cotton threads and imperfect weaving,
1t is we'll to leave the selection of
your linen for an elaborate piece of
embroidery to saleswoman in the
art needlework department. She will
gladly advise you the best grade for
your special purposes.
Linen embroidery may be classed
under two heads-that where threads
are counted, for the material accord
ing to pattern done on checked pa.
per. as in all cross-stitch work. Slav
embroideries and various kind of can
vas work; the other where the pat
tern Is drawn on the material and the
embroidery worked without regard to
the threads of the material, as in Eng
ltsh embroidery, satin stitch, Kensing-
ton, Chinese and Madeira embroi-
deries.
No linen embroidery covers the en-.
tire ground Of the material, but leaves
spaces of the linen for a background
to the design.
There are interesting imported lin
ems to be found in most establish.
ments that are adapted to both kinds
of linen embroidery. Besides the
Irish linen there are Spanish, Silesiaa
and Algerian linens for small stitches
and fine work. while the coarser lin.
