Five Minutes for Nails.

When the nails are manicured every
", FIVE minutes is usually sufficient,
for in this way they are In good con-
dition, ana easily kept so. The cuticle
is always gently pushed back with an
orangewood stick dipped In cream or
cologne and shaped into an oval. The
file rounds and levels the edges. Pol
ishlng at night saves time In the morn
ing. The quickest method of cleaning
the nails is by using a nail brush. A
little cold cream or oil pressed into
the base of the nail under the flesh
strengthens It. and incidentally Inn
parts healthy appearance and lustsr.

Skirts Of Corduroy.

Sport skirts are attracting more
attention this year, 1t is said, than
they have for some time. Corduroy,
which is more or less of a new fab
ric for this purpose, has been used ex-
tensively by a number of manufac-
turers Of skirts with a great deal OF
success. Quite few novelty silks
are also proving popular. both with
the retailers and the buying public.
Narrow effects are produced by the
use of vertical plaits, which still allow
ample freedom of movement. Bright
collars seem to be the order Of The
day. ..s

Bud Ellie was promising young
man OF % years. He was making his
home with Aaron Moore and was cal
led in the first draft. He came home
on furlough last Christmas and had
good time. and the last word he said
when he started back to Camp Taylor
was that he never expected to see
this place again until he helped can
the Kaiser. But he will not come back
We are proud of his grit. 1t is very
sad to us as Buds father died be-

THEIR MARRIEDLIFE

Whats all this" asked Carrie, as
she arranged her rather sparse Golf
fure before Helen's dressing mirror.
'"Glass top?"
Yes" Helen said eagerly, what
do you think of them? Warren and
| talked it over and decided that
although they were expensive, they
do protect the wood so beautifully.
They" said Carrie queStioninSly,
have you nAore than one, then?"
Yes, l have one on my writing
desk, and we have one for the dim
ing table. ! want one for the bed
table, and for the sideboard next.
But we hated to be SO eXtravagant
all at once"
"I should say so; I think it's a
piece of recklessness myself. l have
never INDUCED in anything of the
Kind, and l fatter myself that l have
Just as expensive furniture as you
and Warren, if not more So
"Of course you have Helen
agreed hastily, but really, Carrie,
you should try them yourself. You
have no idea what a splendid relief
it is to feel that if 1 happen to spill
toilet water or perfume, there is no
danger of taking the finish off the
top of my dressing table, and you
know it's impossible to set a glass
of water down without bothering
about the ring it will make, it saves
all kinds of trouble"
81 don't know that I like the idea
of putting the dressing table cover
underneath" Carrie continued, un-
compromisingly.
rYoud get used to that, L thought
it was strange. too, at first but now
I ~
broidered me those scarfs for
Christmas, ana you see how beauti-
fully the glass protects them?
haven't had these laundered at all,
and they will keep fresh just as they
are for an indefinite time. See how
splendidly fiat it keeps the embroid-
cry. l should think, Carrie, that
with the beautiful work you do you
would be glad to protect some of
your lovely pieces"
Helen said this last with the de-
liberate idea of placating her sis
ter-in-law, and her effort was not
| in vain.
THAT does sounds like sense. /
have several beautiful pieces put
away because l have to use them,
one lovely cloth for a dining room
table,
come out anu see lhS iuhNh
cloth L have underneath the glass
on the dining room table," Helen
said eagerly. And she led the way
out to the dining-room, where the
| table, stripped of its pad and table,
cloth, stood revealed covered with
heavy plate-glass top, underneath
which was a handsome round cloth
of Madeira embroidery and filet.
Well. well, that certainly is an
idea" Carrie said, thawing out con-
siderably. Il really think I'll get
Fred to buy some for me. How
much did you pay for them, Helen?'
We'll" admitted Helen, deprecat-
ingly, they are expensive; this one
cost SIG"
Sixteen dollars" repeated Carrie
scandaliZed.
But Carrie. it's the heaviest OF
plate glass, and think of the ad-
vantage"
Advantage. we'll, I must say that
I don't see enough advantage in the
idea to pay out that amount for a
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-03-19

foolish luxury. OF course, it's splen-
did to be rich as you. and Warren
are, and able to afford such things,
but I'd never ask Fred to buy me
anything that 1 could very well do
without. After all, one doesn't have
to show ones table linen to the eX-
tent of such wild extravaganza"
Helen, who was usually only too
glad to agree with everything
Carrie said in order to keep the
peace, was for once put out at Car
rie's quick change of Mind. Carrie
and Fred were far more able to
have things of the kind than were
she and Warren, but Carrie liked to
make Helen out abnormally eX-
travagant. and Helen for once was
furious enough to talk back.
"Of course, it's matter of taste"
lighted with the advantage of the
idea before you found out that it
cost money. After all, Carrie, even
if you and Fred have more to spend
than we do, the way Warren and l.
spend our money is a matter for
our own decision, isn't it?"
"The way you and Warren spend
your money" repeated Carrie,
You mean the way you inveigled
Warren into spending it, don't you?
Fred and / think it's perfectly alb
surd the way you influence Warren" ="
Helen was about to retort angrily
when a heary laugh came from the
doorway and both women turned to
| find Warren and Fred confronting
them. Carrie, almost certain that
/ Warren and Fred would uphold her
in what she said, fastened to re-
mark that she was just telling
| Helen how eXtravagant she had
been to buy glass tops for the fur
niture. 81 told her it was an 'unnec-
essary expense" she finished tri-
umphantly.
well. don't blame Helen for it, -
| said Warren coolly. 1T was / who
I suggested buying them after we had
been to dinner at the Davenports,
! Helen was crazy about the idea. but
thought it unnecessary until | per-
| suaded her that we really ought to
! have them"
And, my dear" said good-natured
| Fred, II don't remember ever saying
that Helen inveigled Warren into
| spending money. You oughtn's to
say such things without more truth
| behind them"
| Helen, who knew that Warren's
and Fred's temporary championship
| of her cause would only lead to
more enmity with Carrie later on
nevertheless felt a passing thrill of
triumph. For once she had come
| out on top where Carries was con-
| cerned, and that fact would go far
| toward mediating the unpleasant
ness of future chickering's.
