get a girl like ma wns. But take UP

and only day came when he returned
from overseas. after eleven months
there and ten months at camp.
I kept quite steady company with
him before he enlisted and then he told
ne of his good intentions and ] promised
10 marry this hero of mine. 1t is past
three wears since We met nov. Then
was only twenty; of course now being
three years older I wanted to settle
down and help him along in business as
T knew it was 80 hard for boy to
make good after being away so long.
Well. to make long story short,
am like Happy was. He surely turned
ont to be a cad. not a hero. Because he
came back safe and sound he does not

some one who he thought looked better

him I'd get a man who knows good

Still. all in all have a big smile even
if my heart weeps. Now, what do you
say to this? Does it pay to be as you
have stated and as am? Look at the
luck one like myself has. wasted three
years on a man who proved to be
nothing at all. Let me tell you that
YOU men are mystery that no woman
can solve. Dear Cynthia. am I right
at that? JUANlIA.
You are right, Juanita. to have "thc
big smile" even if your heart weeps,
because hearts cant weep long when
girls are brave like you are. Don't you
care. Juanita, twenty three is very
Young and three years of wasted" time
is better than lifetime of misery with
a man who sooner or later would show
his true colors.

Kissing When She Saws No

Dear Cynthia Why do the boys like
to kiss girl against her own will
as asked by +. V. A.
Well. am past that age but I
have been through the mill so I
know what it is. To begin at the be-
ginning might explain why people
like to kiss at all. This is my theory
it's just human nature.
However, don't see why boys should
like to kiss girls against their own
will unless they want to tease them or
else they think the girls just protest
so as not to appear too anxious. In
my opinion. though, boy or man who
knowingly kisses a lady against her
will is a coward. In conclusion I wish
to ask to become a member of the Keen.

uOT evenings make most folk long
IL for attractive dishes that can
be served cold. Nature is faithful
teacher to those of US who are willing
to study her at this season of the
year. She urges us to curtail our
meats and use abundantly of fresh
vegetables and fruits. When you re-
uuire meat, use the light meats; their
delicate proteins are easy to assimi-
late.
This season is particularly favor
able for all kinds Of fresh fish. Fish
does not, with few exceptions, con-
tain large amount of oil.
When you decide to have the main
part of the meat cold it is wise to
start with a plate Of soup or bouillon
to stimulate the digestive organs.
Tomato, various cream soups and
bouillons are desirable for this.
Here are few suggested suppers
to replace the hot dinner:
Clear Tomato Soup
Young Onions Sailed Nuts
Cold Sliced Spiced Tongue
Baked Tomatoes
Lettuce Russian Dressing
Gelatin Iced Tea
Cream of Asparagus
Sliced Onions
Cold Sliced Meat Loaf
Potato Salad
Swiss Bouillon
Cold Sliced Spiced Beef
Tomato Salad
Coleslaw
Fruit Turnovers Iced Coffee
Cold Spiced Tongue
Select medium-sized tongue

then soak for four hours in warm
water. Place in deep saucepan and
cover with warm water and add
One carrot, cut in dice,
TtUo onions sliced,
One fagot Of soup herbs,
TtCo bay leaves,
T,Uo allspice,
Four cloves.
One cup Of strong cider vinegar.
Cover closely and bring to a boil !;
then simmer and keep just below the
boiling point for three hours. Let
cool in the liquid and then, when cold,
chill in the icebox before slicing.
The coarse leftover parts of the
tongue may be used for meat loaf
croquettes or hash. 1t will be a reaI

A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose
TT is quite remarkable how narrow
l. minded the warm weather makes us
all. One may be ever so energetic when
the air is brisk, but with the first ex-
tremely hot wave, unconsciously there is
a letting down and a desire to take it
easy" At any rate we are all selfish
when it is hot, il We are at no other time
of the year. Then, too, it makes violent
change in the fashions, which seems to
be even more marked this year than
ever before. Aside from the fact that
the women have had every reason to
turn from the somber colors to the
brighter hues, they have persistently
chung to the drab. Here and there, Of
course, there has been a woman who
took to color{ul things, but the majority
have been quite coutent to use color only
in their hats.
/ The first hot weather. however, turned
the trick. and they all began to think

suddenly impressed with the serious
ness of the labor situation as empha-
sized by the impending strike of btu
minous coal miners, turned to the sell
ing side of the stock market vester-
day.
The result was precipitate fall in
prices of the same industrial stocks
that had risen so buoyantly earlier in
the week. In the two hours of trad
ing approximately a million shares of
stock changed hands at the exchange
The weakness Of the market position
was uncovered soon after the opening,
when professional traders brought
pressure against the steels. The fail
ure of the group to resist the selling
from this quarter caused the liquida-
ton of long accounts by the public
and it was not long before the move
ment attained great momentum, which
carried the market down without a
rally, prices closing about at the bot
tom. There was evidence of scale buy
ing on the decline, but it was not in
sufficient volume to stem the tide.

tered by the leading industrial stocks

tional Lead 5$4 and Studebaker 4A
In many of the unseasoned industrial
specialties breaks of a point or more
were common between sales.
The decline was accelerated by the
catching of numerous stop-loss orders
put in by timid traders who had no
great confidence in the stability of
prices around the levels reached earlier
in the week. In fact, this lack of con-
fdence, even among operators who
were enthusiastic bulls few days ago
was most important contributing
factor in bringing about the decline
The market appeared to be in much
stronger position now the reaction has
taken place. The decline may carry
further next week. although it was the
consensus of opinion after the close
yesterday that the selling movement
has >.@0ut run its course and that un-

may be looked for on Monday. But

regular manner in this market last
week. temporary recovery in sterling

British government loan and fresh
slump in Italian lire to a new low rec
ord being the outstanding developments.
The news Of the British loan offering
came as surprise to the exchange
market and was followed by a rally
of more than cents in the pound in
sterling to S4.18. From there it eased
off again later to around SAILS. Tho
British loan was of more than usual in
terest to the exchange market because
of the fact that the new issue is con-
vertible into British war bonds at
fixed rate of exchange of S4.3O to the
pound.
The weakness in Italian exchange
emphasized the extremely unfavorable
financial position OF Italy and the urg-
cnt needs Of that country in the shape
Of dollar credits. Bankers said that
, the chance of Italy getting a loan here
were not good unless the United States
and the other allies stand sponsors
