For a moment Molly felt terribly
guilty. Then, as she recalled how lit

she felt bit ,chagrined and decidedly
cynical that the trip to Honolulu would
be an excellent panacea for the loss Gs
his fiance.
With shake Of her young Shout

DAYS PUT MARK ON FACES
Interesting to Note the Differing Phys.
ioonomles as the Week Makes
Its. Usual Round.

If 'sthe proper study Of mankind Is
man." then make a beginning by
studying the weeks faces Of your fell
low travellers or workers. You will
find that each day brings change of
countenance. says London Answers.
"Friday faced was once reproach.
It was thrown at the man with long.
doleful visage. and harked back to the
days when the Friday fast was uni
versal. And although the observance
Of Friday as day of fasting is now
more honored in the breach than in
the observance, the "Friday face" re-
mains. Test 1t next Friday.
The Saturday face is the best of the
batch. The payment of wages, the
nearness of the Saturday half-holiday,
the knowledge that the weeks work Is
nearly wound up, is reflected facially.
The Saturday crowd is pleasant to
look on.
Mondays face is grumpy. and holds
a discontinued look. Another week Of
work has to be faced. Rest and pleas
ure are knocked off. Never ask ia
vor on a Monday, and do not expect
an exuberance of courtesy.
Tuesdays face is better, and the
shadows of 1t are light.
Wednesdays face is the normal face
Work has ceased to annoy. the har-
ness does not rub, finance is easy.
Wednesday is sociable day as be-
tween man and man
Thursday is not so good. It's half
Monday, half-1uesday face. Work is
taking its toll, and the end of the week
seems a long way off. For nonshop
workers. too. closed shops and dull
thoroughfares depress. Faces are not
amiable on Thursdays.

only little way below the waistline.

Springtime
and Molly
By H. LOUIS RAYBoLD

WI i9NV' Wy McCiure newspaper SynQfcALo-b
Molly paused In her hanging Of
snowy clothes upon the line and. with
a deep breath, drew In the beauty Of
the day. Overhead. scudding white
clouds chased each other across a tur-
quoise sky. sped by the tonic March
winds. Molly, her blue eyes heaven
ward, was thinking Of William-and
Of Jim.
William was the man to whom she
was engaged-had been for three
years, far-sighted, practical chap, the
sort of man to whom one turns over
ones daughter and says: "Well, she'll
never have to worry about money"
1T will be years before we can
ever think of marrying" he had said
to Molly quite frankly 81 am carv-
ing career and marriage would be
handicap. AS soon as l think 1t
would be wise, we'll marry. Are you
satisfied"
"Of COURSE" Molly had answered
simply, her thoughts full Of the hap
piness Of getting ready.
Three years had passed since then,
and the contents of Molly's chest had
kept pace with Williams bank ac-
count. She had several times been
bridesmaid at weddings of her
friends who begged to know when her
own wedding day was going to be.
Molly always told them bravely that
she and William were being very pru-
dent and weatherwise. 1.-THE high cost
Of living-and everything"
That was why, this blowy March
day, with spring in the air, Molly drew
deep breath and thought-of Jim.
Jim who had wanted to marry her years
ago. and who had just come back
from France, still wanting to marry
her, not some time in the future, but
the very instant she'd say YES"
She finished hanging up the
clothes, picked up the basket and went
into the house.
Ten hours later Molly sat before her
mirror coiling her curly brown hair
with deft fingers. slipping dainty
pumps on silk stockinged feet and fas-
tening a fiowery wolfe frock. All the
while she meditated ut isn't as IL we
couldn't afford it. VIII Is making more

shoulder and under the arm as the
effect of the embroidery would be
spoiled if the pattern were in
rerrupted by a fastening. The de-
signer Of this suit not only adopted
embroidery as it's decoration, but
perceived how it could be used in
an unusual and very effective way
so that the pattern on the coat and
that on the skirt are alike, the two
halves of one design. The sleeves are
gathered into band which is en-
bellished with a simple design in en-
broidery and part of the scroll pat
tern in the coat and skirt. A heavy
silk cord and long tassels are
features that help to make this
a remarkably rich suit, the cord hang
ing in two loops and the tassels from
two ends at the side.
Duvetyn in one Of the darker
shades, with embroidery matching it
in color vindicates its choice as the
loveliest of heavy fabrics.

Cold Causes stale Bread.

Prof. ]. r. Katz of Amsterdam has
been trying to discover what makes
bread grow stale. He has found, says
Chambers Journal. that low tempera.
ture is the chief cause. Bread kept at
40 degrees F. was quite fresh at the
end of As hours; but when the tenn
perature was reduced to 100 degrees
the bread began to grow stale. and
continued to increase in staleness
down to about three degrees below the
freezing point. Beyond that the stale
ness grew less until at the tempera.
ture of liquid air the bread had again
become perfectly fresh. 1t is suggest
ed that bread can be kept fresh by
