A DAILY READER.
As these two letters ask the same
question | am answering them both to-
gether / cannot tell the meaning of
the way "A Daily Readers" letter was
stamped, for no meaning is attached 10
the stamping OF letter on the back of
the envelope. The meanings are as fol-
lows:
In the upper right-hand corner. at a
slight angle, II expect an immediate
reply"
In the upper right-hand corner. at an
angle OF forty-five degrees, II am pro-
voked at your long silence"
In the upper right-hand corner, up
side down, you are very cruel"
Placed one-half inch from the upper
In the upper left-hand corner, BE
careful how you reply to this"
In the lower right-nand corner, BE
ware! Father has caught on"
Tearing the stamp In half and placing
each half with slight space between
| in the upper right-hand corner, "Our
friendship is at an end"
Arranged in the same way in the up

Using two one-cent stamps instead OF
one two-cent stamp has certain sig.
nificance. and | suppose the meaning is
the same now, using three one-cent
stamps instead OF one three-cent stamp
Placing them alongside one another
| in the upper right-hand corner, MY love
for you has doubled"
Placed In the same way In the upper
| left-hand corner, you have a rival"
Placed one above the other, II will cal

Using two stamps reversed, II am

II she had told the real truth she would
have said that her inability to get
anywhere near Ruth worried her. She
was not sure of her ground. and there
fore not at all certain OF what Ruth
might or might not DO.

order not to prolons the conversation.
Mrs. Rowland did not think quickly
enough to aargue; she absolutely lacked
directness OF vision.
Ruth obeyed alphabetically and slipped

rel coat which was gift from her
mother And be glad" went on Mrs.
Rowland. that YOU have something to

II can't be glad about spending mon

to let Jack spend another cent on the

that we can't get along as other young

cided to get married just the same, what
would you have done? AS 1t is, you
will see Jack more than the- girls who
have married men in the army can hope
to see their husbands" -.-
Ruth knew that, and dreaded 1t. II
Jack had been going to France, she
could have borne II SO much easier.
But he would be stationed near her

Adventures
With a Purse

THERE is one disadvantage about
i clothes that are "boughten." as they
say in the country. Invariably there
Is some feature which is not quite
right. and consequently the entire gar
ment is uncomfortable. Particularly Is
this true of bath robes. A sleeve too
short. a cord which brings the waist
line too low or too high. and all the
comfort and pleasure which one ought
by all the laws of nature and natures
gods to get out OF them vanishes. One
ingenious shopkeeper who makes n
thoughtful study of the needs OF his
patrons Is displaying hath robe bank
