Last, but not least, is the fact that
they are to keep open house with no
set invitations, and all and any OF
their friends always welcome The
poor child has never been allowed to
just drop in to a meal with a chum
at her mothers home, and is aching
to be able to feel free in this respect
In her own This Is natural.
Paper napkins and bare tables, plus
a warm welcome, make for convivial'
ity at a dinner, and all dinners should
be So All this cleaning and expen-
sive napery and cut-glass such as she
had been reared on, make for heavi

FAITH
From a Biblical source comes the
charming Faith. which sprang into
popular usage during the vogue Of
Puritanical names. The prevalence Of
appellatives which denoted abstract
virtues marked the beginning Of Puri-
tanism in England and many such
names came under the ban from other
classes because Of the widespread dis
like Of the Round Heads"
But he simple beauty Of Faith, as
we'll as the divine virtue for which the
name was symbol. kept her popularity
undimmed. For was she not one Of the
trio whom ST. Paul recommends to the
Corinthians. saying: And now abid-
eth faith. hope, charity. these three;
tut the greatest Of these is charity"
The Puritans brought Faith to New
England when they migrated from
their native land and the name has
been universally popular, there, at the
came time spreading to other sections
of the country. 1t is one Of the few
feminine appellatives which cannot be
contracted.
The pearl Is Faiths talismanic gem.

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: have a
muddy complexion and a friend Of
mine said she thought it came from
my bringing so much coffee. have
coffee three times a day, and drink
from two to three cups with each
meal Do you think am doing myself
any harm?
ANXIOUS TO DO RIGHT
Excessive use Of coffee so affects
the nerves and digestion that erup-
tions on the skin and bad color are
often caused If you would be content
with one cup of coffee in the morning
and none through the day you might
notice a vast improvement in your
complexion.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a young
girl only 19 years old, but, oh, so mis-.
cradle 1 don't know what to do.
I have been going with a certain
fellow, older than I am, and we are
engaged. We got along just fine at
first, but a certain girl who used to
be my friend has been sending mes
sages to my sweetheart and remarking
that she would bust US up" because
she wanted him for herself. He called
her up and she asked him to come
down there, although she had never
seen him. He went to see her few
minutes several times and was late
coming to see me. l told him if he
ever went to see her again, he need
not come to see me any more.

Bachelor Girl Sayings
BY ellen Rowland

To a woman, at eighteen. marriage
is an adventure: at twenty-five, a
career; at thirty, a goal; and at forty,
haven
A woman's youthful love-afair are
never 80 thrilling and romantic, as
when she re-tells them to her husband
the forty-seventh time
Everything comes to the woman who
waits; but, by the time it arrives she
Is usually either too mad to speak to
1t, or waiting for-some other man
Eve may have had nothing but fig.
leaf to wear; but, at least, she had the
delightful consolation of knowing that
no other woman could come out two
weeks later in cheap imitation
of it
A clever woman could make fool
Of almost any man-if he wouldn't
torestaN her, by falling in love with
some little fluff with one brain-cell.
and making a fool of himself
A woman's enemies never strike her
when she's down. They merely step
aside and look gleefully on while her
friends do it
AS long as a man in love always
says twice as much as he means. and
a woman in love never says half as
much as she means, there will never
be that perfect understanding between
them of which the poets sing.
A man asks only to be reasonably
happy some of the time; but a woman
thinks that life is failure, if she isn't
unreasonably happy" every minute OF
the time.
And then again, given a sweetheart
A becoming hat, and naturally curly
hair, any woman can be perfectly
happy-if she has a lot of other
things.

After we had discussed our upbring-
Ing and tried to puzzle out just why
two such vagrant spirits as ourselves
had ever been wished into two such
conservative families, Laura and l
again went back to the subject of the
future And, oh, how much that little
word does mean to both of us!
Laura said that she would be so glad
not to have to live by rule any more,
and she knows that she will not have
to, when once she is Mrs. Travers. Her
idea OF paradise on earth is a small
home with few duties In It and long,
long hours to herself
She explained that all her life she
had been subjected to rules and regu-
lations, first with governesses and
then later with her school teachers
and mother. Mrs Edmonds, It seems,
is disciplinarian and has always In
sisted ON her home being run like
clock-work! Well, she and mother will
always get on beautifully And now
they viii have still another bond In
common or rather a new tonic Of con-
versatdon between them, Laura and
Lindsey's shortcomings!
How ! did laugh when Laura ex-
planned to me just how she wanted to
live when she was married. First OF
all there should never be a stick Of
mahogany in her home. No, far rath
er plain, unvarnished and unpainted
wood, than the pompous solemnity OF
the former. Mahogany was just made
to worry the lives out Of housekeepers
and accumulate dust And 1t was all

Another Still Capt ured

Deputy Sheriff Williams and
Constable Jolly came in Sunday
morning with two prisoners, and

equipment.
Late Saturday afternoon some
one tipped off the officers, ava
between midnight and day they
wentfout near where tie Hotls-
ton branch R. r. crosses TIE dis
.trict line and entered the hunt
for the still. They were ably
assisted by Justice j, NJ. Young
and Mr.. j. w. Farned who had
located the mash depot and had
been close enough to the still to
smell the stuff cooking. After
considerable search the place
was located scarcely 100 yards
from the railroad and bat q little
way off the public road. Messrs
Williams, Young and Earned
were together at the time and
walked right up on the place
without being discovered until
they commanded the attendants,
Messrs. Will Johnson and Ira
Seay, to consider themselves
prisoners. "
At the time Of discovery, the
run had been completed and they
were taking down the still for
the purpose of placing it in hid
ing until another lot of mash
should be ready.
This is the second capture
made by Mr.. Williams. In the
other instance he got only one
man and that man is now under
sentence to serve a year and a
half in the Federal prison.
Let the good work go on until
there is not a man who will dare
violate the law in this respect,
