HIS WOMAN

Ferrops sumptuous lunchecns and
expensive cigars were now OF daily
occurrence. He rarely reached home
with the sharp appetite of the old
days, when twenty cents was about
the limit he spent at noontime. Edith's
plain fare no longer tempted him.
Daily Ferrol spent unstinted dollars
on men who meant only business to
him just to feed them into a more
genial mood. Yet, his wife, the wo-
man who was his partner in the bust
ness of life, and his children, con-
tinued to eat as frugally as though
they meant less to him than book
buyer. For Edith, after her one bac-
chanale OF buying, had needed certain
warnings that kept tapping at her
brain. Her husbands hundrei-dollar
suit had been genuine shock to her.
She couldn't explain It; but somehow
1t weighed upon her mind, putting an
effective brake upon her expenditures.
Besides. Edith still had but little &C
tual money. Her buying had been on
charge accounts" The beautiful vel.

become commonplace to him since he
had begun his policy OF lavish treat
ing"
Ferrol felt as "a human being should
feel" as he stood up at the head OF
the table on the night OF the celebra-
ton. Edith wore a handsome evening
gown-his present. The table was
laden with a feast far beyond their
previous experience. His children
were wide-eyed at the munificence OF
the party and the presents their "a

good spenders as they were, felt I'M
pressed with Ferrol's free-handedness
that night.
Happy days!" Ferrol cried as
toast
Happy days!" his family and his
guests echoed.
In Blake's knowing eyes, however,
there was the least shadow of anxiety.
He knew that it was his lucky tip OF
Bonanza Copper which was RESPONSE
BILE for Ferrops blossoming out as
spender He had hopes that Bonanza
Copper would keep on rising faster
than Ferrol could spend it. But he
knew stocks had a way OF falling
which made building on their contin-
ued good behavior a precarious bust
ness. He wished. as friend. that Fer

his good fortune.
Lillian Blake, however. was not
troubled with remote possibilities. She
considered the good dinner the Fer
| rolls accorded her part OF her reward
! for befriending them. She meant to

Edith Ferrol.

Dear Mrs Thompson: l have been
going with a young man for over
two years and love him dearly. My
father and mother both think the
world of him, for he does everything
to please us
About eight months ago I started
dancing and this fellow does not ap-
prove of 1t. He begged me to stop
and I kept promising him would,
but my friends kept on asking me to
dance, saying that he would start. too,
but he did not and we stopped going
together for about three months. Dur
ing that time l only saw him four
time. l tried to forget, but l could
notI loved him too dearly. So wrote
this boy and he answered the letter.
Then l told him If we could be the
same l would give up dancing.
We started back together and he
was the same dear boy, but l went
back to the dance hall and he knows
it and he has started going out with
other girls. and that just kills me-
There Is a fellow who works In the
same office with me who is a good
friend to this boy, and he has asked
me why / did what / did and / could
not answer him. l have tried to ex-
plain the best l could, but l would
appreciate any advice you could give
me. l love this boy and l want to
be the same we once were. Please
tell me just what to do l am willing
to give up dancing If he won't dance,
for life is nothing to me without him.
VIII l do right by giving up, as that
is the only thing he disapproves Of,
and also tell me what l can do to
win this boys love again?
THANK YOU.
Since you love the boy so much
you ought to be able to give up dane
ing to please him. Do not write to
him or ask him to come back. When
he sees that you are no longer dane
ing he may understand and will prob.
ably ask to go with you again. l be-
lieve that in your case it will be best
to make the sacrifice, because you
seem to love him so much

FAMINE FACES FRANCN
SAVE WHEAT TO SEND
OVERSEAS TO ALLIES

"The Allies are still hungry
and if you can spare a little more
flour, for God 8 sake send it,"
was the plea made recently by
British officer to an American
audience. 7'.''' ~ ~
Who of you. after hearing that
Aeart-breaking cry after realizing the
necessity which faces the brave ma
lions Of Europe. can help saving
wheat! fv -vpsTa +. "a, .ni{
Two definite appeals to us are
voiced there. 1us r'6 vtr ,'.
One is'to patriotism. the other to
common sense.
The Allies cause is our cause. Our
men are fighting shoulder to shoul-
fighters must fail The war must be
lost to Liberty. Even the most ignor-
ant among us knows what a German
victory would mean. especially to the
women and children of the land. Our
love of country, our love of our
homes, our every instinct of self
preservation must make US do every
thing, whether great or small toward
victory
The other appeal is that Of human
ity. Who can refuse to deny himself
because Of his greediness. his love of
his own food habits. when that
thought-the thought of the Allies
suffering-come5 to us?
Can any one with either sense or
scnsibility keep on eating wheat pro-
ducts In the present need? Does it
not throw human weakness into an
ominous German shadow to insist up
on having food requiring white flour?
Won't you-all you red-blooded
willing American citizens let that
British officers cry for the Allies
sound in your ears: III you can
spare a little more flour. for Gods
sake send it?"

"POTATO week" BOOSTS
CONSUMPTION OF TUBER

Eat potatoes ana serve your coun-
try.
Bake them, boil them, cream them.
hash-brown them, roast them with
meat, eat them cold in salad.
Remember that every potato eaten
by an American over here will mean
that more wheat will be sent and
eaten by an American over there.
During Potato Week" the move
ment Of potatoes was the heaviest
since the first of the year, according
to a report submitted to the Colorado
Food Administration by the U. 8. Bu-
reau OF Markets, over $50 cars of po-
tatoes were rolled to market during
the week Of April 81 to 27-'Potato
Week." There are now in Colorado
less than $50 cars of marketable 20
