PALACE" CARS

The first 'tpalace' cars. as drawing room cars were originally called, were put in operation by Webster Wagner,
 an inventor and manufacturer, who was born ninety-seven years ago to- day. Oct. 2. 1917. The first step to- ward the palace and sleeping car was taken in 1888, when a rude sleep ing car. with berths but with no bed ding, was introduced on the Cumber- land Valley railroad in Pennsylvania. In 1854 Theodore T. woodruff intro duced sleeping cars having the same general principles as those of today, the seats being convertible into bertha at night. Woodruff sold his patents to Webster Wagner, and the first cars of this type were known as Wagners. Pullman's cars were introduced about half a century ago, and in 1867 hotel car, the first of it's kind, was built by
 Pullman for the Great Western rail- way of Canada In 1868 Wagner built the first two palace 'or drawing-roon cars ever run for pay. Bullets were introduced into parlor and sleeping

REID CROSS CHRISTMAS
 SEAL CAMPAIGN IS ON

To sell three million Red Cross seals in Connecticut from the first day of December to New Years Day is the work which the Connecticut State Tu- bercu1osis Commission has mapped out for itself. Preparations for the cam patgn are now under way. Tons of advertising matter and literature will be sent broadcast, while many thous- and letters will push the mail order of this great work. This year State Director, H. E. CIearman, who has opened his offices in the State Capi- to1, plans to have the seals sale in every locality throughout the state, not only in large cities and towns but also in the smallest ham1ets. Last year over one million Red Cross Seals were sold in Connecticut which pro vided $16,000 for tuberculosis work within the state. If the sales this year reach the figure hoped for over $8O.0oo will be realized for use in the fight that will benefit every resid ent of the state. Local societies wishing to assist the Connecticut State Tuber- cuIosis Commission in this great movement, and, at the same time se- cure funds for anti-tubercu1osis work in their territory, should communicate at once with State Director C1earnan in reference to obtaining agencies.

When People Pass Remarks

Dear Miss Libbey: am a girl of eighteen, and ask your aid in my trouble. Do you think it any harm in a young man coming to spend the evening WfthN me at my home? He often asks me to go with him places. I always refuse be cause people pass remarks about him. He is an Italian, and very nice to be about. He's been in this country a few years, is like an American boy. Please write and tell me if there's any harm in his, coming to eur house.
 M. E. S.
 People, whether well-meaning or unkind, cannot decide for you. would pay no attention to their re- marks, if the young man is honorable and suits your parents and you No doubt he has good qualities and if he loves you, it is not time lost.

And waste it's sweetness on the deS-
 ert air"
 While the world is 1auding the list Of heroines working with might and main to relieve the suherinEs that mankind Is plunged into by the war there's a vast number of heroines that the world never hears of. They are the women laboring quite hard, surrounded by peace, supposedly, but very little peace do they find. From childhood. Gn1e has shown them an un- kind face
 They wed for love, bravely believing that a way out of poverty will be shown them somewhere, somehow. Nine times out Of ten, when both are healthy and strong, they pass pleas ant enough existence together. Where, as a lover, man is fraI, marriage and it's cares rather hinder the gaining Of strength with him.
 Although babies may come quickly enough, home comforts and advance ments do not. It Is usually the kind est-hearted of husbands who tall i'll those who are most eager to work. At this crisis, the fraiI young mother rises to the height of heroisn when she lifts the support of the family from the husband's s weak shoulders to her own frau ones.
 <The woman who tolls cannot be chooser as to her occupation or the remuneration it affords her. Employ CTS often seem to have way of grind ing working women down to the low est living wage The woman who knows that it means life or death to her and the loved ones at home does not hesitate, no matter how small the pay She is up in the morning long before daybreak. Of course the poor babies need sleep and rest. but she
 l. fast them before going to her day. s work.
 The husband. who is as helpless as any one of them, comes in for a share of her attention. She has to cook, clean. sew and mend for them into the far watches of the night. It soon tells on her vitality. She often feels as if she could cry out that she can not endure the strain much longer.
 But what's the use2 She must bat tie for her loved one till her last throb of vitality goes out. There's no one to applaud her. She doesn't see her name in daring type recounung the story of the lives she has saved. There are women, too, who are supporting aged fathers and mothers as we'll as other indrm relatives, using their strength and their years for their ben eft without g. murmur or the hope of reconpense in any way.
 The heroham of sWomen was never more realized than now. Their names should be placed high upon the roll of honor. Let these hero1nes not des- pair There is never a lane so long but that there is a turn to it, nor du- ties performed over such a. long stretch of years that relief does not come at last, ofen when least expect ed. Babies grow up to help, and hus- bands recover to come to the fore Happy is teh home life then to each of them. Mother is ever after a heroine in that household

A Faint-Hearted tWooer

Dear Miss Lbbey:
 I corresponded with 9 young lady in the east four years. She Is my own age and pretty. She sent me a photograph of herself. She never men toned love in any of her letters I love her dearly. I do not want to come right out and ask her if she loves me; she might think I am too bold Please tell me how to find out.
 LT To me 1t is g. wonder how a nice, de- s4rable young lady would keep com pany, corresponding four long years. without the marriage question being settled. Yet it's never too late when you are in earnest to wed. Cease to be a faint-hearted wooer.

sswin you tell me if it is the proper thing to put a black band on ones sleeve when a member of the family has died? ?" asked William.
 .sThis practice is a relic of the days when servants were made to wear hands on their sleeves out of respect to the death of any one in the family in which they were employed. If one cannot afford to wear black garments, he should refrain from wearing the band, which to too ostentattous to be in good form answered his friend.

Quit Girls He Didn't Love
Dear Miss Libbey:

Dear Miss Libbey:
 am seventeen. To be married this fall to a gentleman of twenty-five. He earns a good salary. Thinks a. good deal of me. Never speaks a cross word. Before we were engaged, he came twice a week regularly. Now he don't come regularly, but on Sunday after moons. He says he thinks more of me than any one else, even his sister. Tells me he has been engaged to two girls before. Quit because he did not love them. This is why I have lost con ddence in him. Will he do so by me? Is it wrong to kiss after people are engaged? Please advise.
 ANXIOUS Q.
 You seem to have had. so far, trou- b1es of your own. One cannot help be- ing wary of a, man who has quit two girls he was engaged to, us he didn't love them, and fearing the same fate. Hope that 9 poor beginning will make a good ending. After people are en- gagged, some of them exchange good bye kisses when they meet and part

 This simple treatment, if persisted with, will not only soften and wl1iten the skin, but do away with wrinkles of long standing. It accomplishes this by plumpening the tissues, thus rais- ing the lines of the face and obliter- ating them.
