CHAPTER CCCONu
 After the mispay of the first eve nislg, when Phoebe and Neal got lost trying to walk round the lake, my weekend with the two kiddieS was completely happy and almost with out incident.
 I succeeded in getting my apart ment by telephone Sunday morning, was no message from MT. Harri- son." As she insisted that she hadn't left the apartment alone for a minute of my stay, I didn't argue, but blamed Central on whom we put so much nowadays, and. attrib- uting Jin's silence to the same agency. I managed not to worry.
 When thoughts of Daisy and Tom threatened to disturb I resolutely put them aside. Hadn't I determined Hadn't promised Jim as much Why make myself miserable over Toms philanderings with girl who = even if she was my dead a thief? But somehow one worry refused to leave me-would it have been better for me to have suggest ed: Phoebe and Neal, Iruna Warren done pretty we'll in turn to chap eron me?
 We arrived home about g Sunday evening, and whatever doubts and
  balanced by Phoebe's gratitude to me for making her holiday possible.
 Our Neal is such a darling! You know it, don't you, Amer" she whispered at my threshold, when Neal went ahead to carry in my bags and light up the place for me. You don't blame me for getting desper- ate sometimes over the way I have to wait and wait and just wait-do you?"
 NO, I don't, honey-girl," I said, borrowing Meals name for her. 'I just ache for you sometimes when I stop and think how happy you'd be in a little nest of your own. But if it's hard on you-don't you think it's mine ?''
 Poor little Phoebe! She seemed to derive a lot of comfort from that, and I realized that she was young enough and baby enough to resent NeaPS marvellous sef-control in stead of worshipping him for 1t as an older and wiser woman would have done.
 Came Neal then to the threshold. where he stood with his arms thrown about me

"The most honest woman is the one who earns her own money"
 Barbara Castleton, who plays the lead in ''Shams of Society," present ed by RIG pictures corporation, be- Iieves emphatically that every mar red woman should have a regular allowance. If she has not she is soon led into deceit and all sorts of trickery and subterfuge.
 'tShams of Society is a picture of real life," says Beautiful Barbara earnestly. Helen Porter is just like thousands of women in real life. Without any spending money they re- sort to all sorts of tricks in order to get it. They gamble and even sell their gowns just as Helen did. The picture contains a most striking less on for husbands. Many times, in real life, they come to their senses too late, just as Herbert did, and

Beauty Chats
By EDNA KENT FORBES.
A MANICURE HINT

One of the best manicurists I ever met, gave me what I think is a very valuable hint regarding the good looks of the nails It is a small thing, but like most small things, im- portant.
 When you clean under the nails with the blade of the file or the orangewood stick that comes for this purpose, you usually begin at one side of the nail and draw the blade straight under the nail to the other si6e. A certain amount of pressure is necessary, of course, to make the nail clean, and much of the pressure is directed against the place where the skin and the nail meet The ten dency of such a method of cleaning the nails is to push this skin back, particularly in the centre, and to make a straight line from edge to edge of the nail.
 The nail itself is filed to rounded point, so that between it's tip and the pink part of the nail there is a little white moon-shaped piece. Now if the pressure of the file, or whatever. in strument is used to clean the nail, makes one side of this white part straight, the shape of the end of the finger will not be attractive. Bur if you begin to clean the nails by starting the file at the centre and pressing down to each corner you will let the pink part of the nail form natural rounded line. <
 This will make the fingers look longer and will give them a taper1ng appearance.
 It is a very tiny matter-perhaps you will think it is too trivial to both CT with, but it is no more difficult te
 clean the nails this way than other looking as possible? Olive-You can purchase a small
 eye cup at any drug store, which is more convenient for washing the eve than using a. basin. The water Shn1Id be luke-warm.
 F. P.-The little girl will probably outgrow the tendency, if you do not encourage it yourself. ] E. W.-This trouble generally
 comes from an acid condition in the
 mouth, which should be neutralized as it will ruin the teeth Consult a first class dentist, who will prescribe a wash for this and also remove all | tartar accumulation that forms un- der the edges of the gums. Anxious-Rub fine powder into the soles of the feet before putting on | salty water used each night, as a
 rinse after bathing, will harden the | skin.
 Sarah-If you send an addressed | stamped envelope, I shall be pleased to mail you the formula for this tonic.
 Betty-Common table salt, rubbed | into the hands, after washing them, will make them so soft and white. | --Anxious-The electric needle will remove those mo1es | Rosebud-Your development is un-
 even. In a few years all your pro- | portions will be correct. All inquiries addressed to Miss | Forbes in care of the 'sBeauty Chats' department will be answered | in these columns in their turn. This | requires considerable time, however,
 owing to the great number received So if a personal or quicker reply is | desired, stamped and self-addressed l envelope must be enclosed with the queStior-Editor.

She felt kind OF mean satisfaction
as she walked away. and Just as she
was going past the prov of the fishing
boat, near which her mother and sister
were sitting she was startled by a
strange dark girl who rose from the
sand. Mildred thought she looked
kind of lonesome. and being naturally
good-hearted she said: "Hello!" But
the stranger only stared rudely and
went on about her business.

The others then all went away and
hid, leaving Mildred alone in the
castle. She stood there waiting for

body poke her in the arm. She started
around and there was the lady she
had seen and the dark girl.
"Give 1t, give IT." cried the lady, her
dark eyes flashing. "Badl Thief!
Naughty! Give it, says."
Mildred would have run away bu;
the lady grabbed her by the arm.
"Help!" screamed the terrified child.
OF course, the others thought it was

to the spot. They were very much
surprised at the sight which greeted
them.

When the division had been made and
the two camps stationed at opposite
ends of the porch were busy working
out the answers to the questions a
noisy time ensued. At the end OF
twenty minutes Dick blew a whistle
and time was called. The camp hav-
ing the most correct answers to the
questions received a point towards the
grand prize.
For the next game each child re-
ceived a strip of white paper. down
the side of which were the following
groups Of letters: G. w: ]. A.: II. J.;

LII of Dicks friends knew that
when he gave a party it was
sure to be a novel affair, and SO
y hwhen the invitations arrived
from Dick inviting his classmates to
attend a Patriotic Party. excitement
and expectation ran high. When the
afternoon of the party arrived the
guests hurried to Dicks. anxious to
be on time for the fun. Dick met
them at the door and led them to the
side porch.

so she asked her father why. He told
her. Many years ago men wore coats
with long tails that trailed on the
ground when they walked. II speed or
hurry was necessary the long tails
were in the way. so buttons we're fas-
tened TO the coat, and button holes
were placed In the corners of the tails
that the long ends might be looped up
and buttoned out of the way. Now
there is no use for such button. but
1t is used on the coats as an ornament
and stands as relic Of former
style.
