He brought me two Angora kittens,

The Diary of an Engaged Girl
BY Phyllis Phillips

What time we had We danced
our heads off, and sang the old songs.
1t was every bit as thrilling as being
at some dance in Greenwich village, l
can assure you. Johnny and l remin-
lsced madly about the days when we
haunted all and any queer cafes that
We could possibly find, and roared at
the memory of some of our widest
escapades. The only time that his
face dropped was when l announced
my engagement to him.
Jaw, Lindsey, l had always thought
that you at least would be the one
or the crowd to remain true to Art
and Life" says he sadly. l answered
that l expected to remain ever true to
both OF these, my old loves, but cir
cumstances had made it imperative to
be true to myself first! I don't think
that he got me at all. His eyes were
quite dull for long time after. But
when I danced with him just as I
used to, he frightened up consider

delirious with delight, when after dane
ing for long time in my uncomfort-
ably new pumps l suddenly whirled
them off my feet in the middle Of the
maddest steps possible and spun
around lighter than ever. That's the
old Lindsey" he said, giving me
hug of approval. Lord, but it's good
TO know that you are still one of us, in
spite of fiance."
All considered, it was a glorious
evening. And by the time that We
realized that there was train to catch

old way, racing each other all along

Don't Spoil Your Hair
Bv Washing 1t

When you wash your hair. be care
full what you use. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain 100 much
alkali which is very injurious, as 1t
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsifed
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap and beats anything else all to
pieces. You can get this at any drug
store, and few ounces will last the
whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoontul Is
all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out
easily The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft, fresh looking,
bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle.
Besides, it loosens and takes out every
particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.-

What in a Name
SIDONIE
(Copyright)


One Of the most charming and in
teresting little names in the feminine
category is Sidonie. heroine of nov
els beyond number, and yet quite
commonly in everyday usage ST.
DOME is another of the names which
are derived from places and means
of the city of Sidon."
Curiously, Sidonia is the feminine
OF one of the most famous masculine
names of Roman history. Her prede-
cessor was Caius Solius Apollinaris
yes, actually Sidonius. He was said
TO be the most curious character of
the dark ages, literary and married
bishop of Clermont, in the fifth cen
fury. who, though possessing a repu-
tation for extreme piety, was vastly
different from the customary concep-
ton of ecclesiastical sanctity.
This good man has been canonized
by the church and the 23rd of August
has been set aside as his feast day.
His only name-sakes have been wom-
en-. France first evolved a Sidonie,
which is still extremely popular there.
Then came Sidonia as a Spanish
product. The daughter of George Po-
diebrand of Silesia was Sidonia, also
called Zedena. AS early as 1883 ST.
donia was in vogue in Germany
George Gable, whose military ro-
mances are still widely read even by
the growing generation, did much to
establish the popularity of Sidonia
here when he so named the heroine
of one of his most popular books.

ic stone. If set in gold, it will pro-
tect here from all danger Monday is

other farewell as we betook ourselves
to our various trains.
l was to spend the night with
Greeny, so We found ourselves finally
on the last train to Merton, tired, but
infinitely happy.
Greeny has the sweetest little house
all to herself, not far from the station,
and we walked along in the moon
light to the house, enjoying every
step of the way. 1t was glorious
mid-summer's night and our perfect
communion was unbroken, until just
as we came to the front gate the air
was rent by the walls of Greeny's
daughter, Elsie Jane. She certainly
has a good pair of lungs, that child.
In a moment Greeny was transformed
into a mother, and fairly flew in, and
up the stairs to quiet her offspring.
l followed more soberly, and man
aged to knock over a stand in the hall,
which in turn seemed to inf1ame Elsie
Jane to redoubled efforts in yowlin.

waited for order to be restored. and
after long wait Greeny reappeared
beaming, and somewhat short OF
breath from her exertions.
Elizabeth that's her real name.
Elizabeth Green, Green's a nickname
- is married to Harry White, and
"Whitey," as we call him, is in New
York at present studying. Consequent
ly she is alone save for an aunt of hers
who lives in one of the rooms upstairs,
and leaves Greeny pretty much to her
own devices, probably because she is
deaf. Greeny was and is one Of the
most promising artists that l know,
and yet she told me that for two years
she has hardly touched a brush.

ternity! Be that as it may, l took
her sternly to account for not mixing
the two a bit, especially now that she
is practically free. No Whitley to cook
for or anything Of course she told
me that she would start in to work
again eventually, and loved her work
more than ever, but l am sceptical.
That girl is an artist at making mid
night suppers without a doubt. AS we
talked she few about getting sand
witches made, and hot coffee, in a way
that astonished me, for We had been
dancing for hours. We burned the
midnight oil for a long time before
turning it.
