why her very get-up was against her.
"You Judge people entirely from what

These people are my friends. and you
are not giving them fair trial.
And I'm your wife. OF course, what
say doesn't matter in the least"
Ruth, what makes you talk that way.
1t isn't like you. l can't understand you
at all. But you mustn't say such things
They hurt our love; they're not worthy
of you"
Most of this conversation had taker
place on top of the bus going home. ant
now, as they had reached their owf
corner, Scott helped Ruth down, and they
walked UP the block in silence. In thei'
own apartment before the light was
turned UP, Ruth had a sudden impulse
and she touched Scotts arm tremu

his arms, their hasty words forgotten

but words had been said that night, ant
the daylight would bring remembrance
and clear reasoning. Certainly the SUB
ject had not been dropped for good.

THESE MISTAKES CAUSE
UTENSILS TO WEAR OUT
Do You Hold Rugs by the Edge When Shaking Leave Wooden Han

Money Out the Windoc?

American women as q class have not
practiced economy to any extent In the
care of household equipment, the States
Relation Service of the Department OF
Agriculture affirms.
The want Of thought in the care and
Use of equipment is often the cause OF
It's short life. Some of the apparently
'rifing mistakes which cause utensils
and tools to wear out before they should
are the following:
Contents of saucepans and kettles
boiled until dry and the metal over
heated.
Handles, screws and fastenings of
knives. forks egg beaters, etc, loosened
from having been left in hot water.
Metal utensils put away wet causing
them to rust.
Covers put away wet with steam as
they are taken off the saucepan.
Brooms and brushes used continually
on one side and worn to a point.
Brooms allowed to stand on the floor
until their weight bends or breaks the
straw.
Glasses broken because the bottom in
stead of the side is put into hot water
China dulled by washing with too
strong soap suds.
Liquids spilled on rugs or polished
