Real "Deserted VILLAGE"

A deserted village" which contains
only one single soul. a woman. is that
Of Woolstein. a hamlet near Cassel,
In Prussia. 1t has been abandoned
by its inhabitants on the ground that
life there is hopeless. The soil is ster.
lie. and the authorities refused to link
the village to the outer world by rail.
About hundred of the inhabitants
left in a body for America few
weeks ago. and since then those who
were left behind have been moving
daily to neighboring villages and
to WINS. The village school was closed
not many days ago because there were
no more pupils. and on the following
Sunday service was held for the last
time In the village church. The houses
are empty. and the village looks as
II 1t had been swept by the plague.
Only one inhabitant remains. Frau

years old. and declares that she will

This was not in keeping with what
David Kerr's daughter had been
taught about her fathers town. The
number of automobiles also surprised
her. By the time she reached the
place appointed for her meeting with
her father there was not SO much of
condescension In her attitude toward
Belmont u Z
This changing viewpoint did not
mean q diminution Of enthusiasm.
More than anything else 1t spurred
her curiosity. She realized that the

OF black-brown fur, which seemed to
be bearskin. The skirt was close and
supple, and 1t outlined the ladys limbs

another rim of black.brown fur OF the
same kind. The skirt was 20 close

For some time they sat in silence
in the living room, gazing into the
open wood fire. More than once Kerr
thought his daughter was about to
speak, but each time she seemed to
think better of 1t or else lose her
courage. He knew that something
weighed on her mind.
Il know I'm going to like Belmont
very much" she ventured at last.
"And l want Belmont to like me. My

ring. In half an hour there are enough
engagements to last week. In Bel

This was not said in any tone Of

such thing, because her fathers po-
sition was such that her lack Of
friends was only temporary embar-
rassment. She knew that we'll enough.

The surprise which Gloria knew her
unexpected arrival would occasion
was even greater than she could Inn
agine. Several things had happened
In Belmont recently to disturb David
Kerr. and he was in no frame of mind
for further complications.

ginning to hint at certain favors 1t

such concessions. Worse still. the

ership. and the new editor was not
displaying that subservient fealty
which had characterized all Belmont
papers in the past. Already the News
was swapping at his heels and asking
questions which were extremely point
ed. To have Gloria descend upon him
at such time was too much for even
David Kerr. His mastery Of the stu
alton caused him to have no great
fear for the stock-yard demands and
the newspaper outcry. vexing prob

water, alcohol also, are unsatisfactory.
Although the articles are clean after a
great deal of rubbing they become tar

the effects of salt and vinegar. The ware,

CHARLOTTE P.''
Taking your emphasized query first, let
me advise you to use javelle water ac-
cording to directions that come with 1t,
in removing rust from white linen and
cotton. Then bleach in the sun, wetting
hourly with lemon juice. Colored fabrics
are quite another matter. Cover the
spots with a paste of boracic talcum and
household ammonia. Leave It on for q
hours; brush out tile powder; wet and ex-
pose to the sun, protecting the rest of the
garment by basting thick paper over it.,
cutting holes the size and shape of the
stains. Wet hourly. After all the deter
sive is likely to extract the body color.
With regard to keeping silver and brass
bright after cleaning them, the accumu-
lations of rust and tarnish are caused by
surfaces. A brisk rub every morning
with flannel cloth will suffice to bur-
nish the articles which are in constant
use For the larger pieces that are not
