were outlined in a heavy line of
golden tan rope silk in outline stitch,

were treated in the same way in olive
green rope silk. These embroidered
bands of outline embroidery also ran
the length of the curtains. These

Dear Mrs. Thompson: u I have
friend who has asked me to write
and ask you how she can get out of
the habit of lying telling wrong
stories. Please give me a good idea.
90 l am in love with a man who
lives in my town. He is going away.
Would you correspond with him ii you
were 1?
CD Should I kiss him good bye?
a. He has always called my atten-
ton from his window. Should / notice
him?
90 He is very good-looking and
love him dearly. Will you kindly tell
me what to do?
KATHERINE.
"a The girl might make a placard

should be hung in her room where
she will see it frequently It would
also be well for her to write in a note
book the lies she tells each day and
check up the days when she does not
lie When she is conscious OF the
stories she is telling she will lie less
and less frequently. She might find it
a help to infiict some kind of punish
ment on herself for each lie she tells
For instance, she could go without
dessert, meat or something she likes at
the next meal
~ Let him write to you first or
ask you to write 90 No.
(4!' Look up and speak.
80 Don't let your mind dwell on
him. If he does not love you in re-
turn you will make yourself miser-
able by thinking of him, and if he
does love you you will have enough
time to think of him after he has
told you so.

gle bad buy.

our business is so per cent better
