years.

School and college girls are sure to be
interested in this design. The blouse is
q very new one, with a haring collar cut in

blouse, as taffeta with serge, or a plaid
material with plain, or plain material
above plaid. The blouse is very attractive
showing new features in the shirrings as
we'll as in the collar and appropriately

shirred successfully. The skirt makes an
excellent model both for the street and for

HER SIIDE-=-ANID HIS
The Serpent's S Tooth
By ZOE BECKLEK

Beth Woodford was a combination of passionate zealot and busybody. When she encountered what she con- sidered wickedness or danger she made the punishment of that wick edness or the avoidance of that dan ger her personal and passionate mis- sion. It mattered not how little it concerned her personally or what price she and others would have to pay for her interference She had to set her sharp little teeth into thing. She had to bite her little bite; shoot her little venom.
 You know, dear" she began one day as they were sewing in Cora s workroom, "you and David aren't one Dit suited for each other"
 "No?' smiled Cora, snapping off a thread unconcernedly "why?"
 "or, you're so fine, such--such class, Cora; and David--well, I don't like the way he seems to appreciate you.
 Take his carryings-en with Mrs. Brett, for instance. A man with real fine feelings would never have done that"
 Beth glanced at Cora, giving her a chance to make some reply, which she did not makei So Beth continued, add ing dash of verbal tabasco;
 "As for his affair with the Laurence woman, my d-e-a-r, don't believe you know how people are talking about 1t, You are so wrapped up in this new house of yours that you. don't hear half that's going on, Now, when was calling on Mrs.
 "Oh, Beth!' broke in Cora, her pa tience pricked at last, ''don't let's go over that old stuff againl David kept nothing from me. It doesn't interest me to know that Mrs. This or Mrs. That thinks or says about it. David and have our problems-our dark hours even-but we understand each other perfectly now, and everything is happy between us."
 Beth raised her shoulders and smiled with one corner of her mouth after the irritating manner of trouble makers. "Oh, of course, child, if you choose to live in fools paradise, go on and do it. But, personally, I like to know the truth about things and face it. I never was an ostrich, to go stick my head in the sand and think I was safe. If I were you, Cora, I'd keep little closer watch It's very mortifying being deceived"
 Cora felt like retorting: Well, I'd rather be deceived than spend my life as you have, watching and suspicion ing poor old Tom" But she didn't say it, because deep down in her heart tiny speck of uneasiness was sud- denly created, as it always is by gos- sip and innuendo.
 Cora began to wonder if Beth did know anything that she did not. Was there any continuance of friendship between David and Wanda Laurence that David was keeping from her? Was there any one else, perhaps? Was she, Cora, blinded by her new

Ants in the House

"A few weeks ago an article appeared in your paper which told how to prevent ants from coming into the house l in tended to cut the article out, but the pa- per was destroyed before I got at it. Will you print it again? Also what will remove white marks from vanished fur niture? They came from the heat.
 "B. H."
 We cannot be sure of selecting the right one of the many preventives against ants we have published lately. h. stead of attempting it offer one of my own compositions: Borax and red pep per, soap, mixed with cayenne smeared on the edges and at the back of the shelves. Let me commend, in particular, the experient of smearing the under side of pantry shelves with soap into which cayenne pepper has been worked. Next to this I place sticky fly paper recom- mended in premises infested by fleas. Ants seem to have a special antipathy for the odor of the composition coating the paper. They are often found lying dead in heaps under the paper, without attempting to cross it. White spots on furniture, left by hot water, or hot dishes, or sharp acids, are one of the common blemishes of polished and oiled woods. Try, first, wood alcohol, rub bing it in well. Should whitish mark remain, wet bit of flannel with cam phorated oil-Just as you would use upon your baby's sore throat-and rub the spot faithfully with 1t until it Is ab- sorbed. Then cover the spots with olive oil, leaving 1t on all night. In the morn ing rub the oil in well. This will re- move scratches and slight indentations Use asbestos mats in future under hot dishes and plates. You may buy them with washable covers, more or less or namsntal An equal mixture or turpen- tine and linseed oil will remove white marks from furniture caused by water
