infinitely greater than she had imagin-
ed.
You needn't look that way when |
talk about Hornbrook," she said once
in resentment at Amy's bored express
sion It's got just as much life in Its
way as this place you're so crazy
about"
Amy, seeing no possible comparison
beyond a seething metropolis and a
country town, decided not even to an
swer.
The "wickedness" of the place be-
came even more acute to her one day,
when Jim Clarke appeared for Sunday
tea. Jim Clarke to her was the mons
ter of iniquity that had caused a sep
aration beyond her son and wife. Lu-
Their assured her she was wrong, that
Jim merely belonged to that set" and
though he did not like him, he did not
hold him responsible for the domestic
trouble But the mother simply didn' I
believe this.
Guess whom | lunched With today"
Jim said, as Amy poured him tea.
There were several answers-one
from Ted, one from Mark, one from
Luther The room had it's usual Sun
day collection of people in it. Clarke
shook his head in answer to every
guess-and mentioned the name of the
director of the great opera company

The Middle Ground
BY MARION RUBiNcAM

TO see how many hundreds of feet this
special giant sprung from the earth.
Mrs. Talbot looked at the building,
curiously, impersonally, without any
way realizing the amazing work and
genius required to conceive and exc
cute a mass of steel and stone that
lowered some 700 feet.
oh. yes" she said. BY the way.
that reminds me, they're building a
new house down at Hornbrook-do
you remember where the road from
the ford comes in at Main street,"
"Mother!" Amy cried. losing pa
thence. Can't you think about any
thing but those silly happenings at
home? It's just as Luther says, you've
spent so much time looking at little
things and thinking of LITTLE things
that don't count, that you can't see
anything big"
Mrs. Talbot promptly retired into in
iured silence. So this ride and many
other rides usually ended The mother
decided that the big city was ugly, the
big buildings monstrosities-she be
came jealous of the reputation of the
little town that, so far, had been all
the metropolis she had ever known.
The city had been big, mysterious,
and wicked before. Now it was huge
beyond conception, and though the
mystery was gone upon acquaintance
snip, the Wlckedness appeared to her

AMY'S Am BlTION
Chapter 20

The three chilren had really been
very nice to Mrs. Talbot. At first she
said she di dnot want to see anything
Of the city.
1t scares me-" was the way she put
it.
But Mark sent his car around and
Amy took her out in that And lean
ing back against the soft cushions, pro-
tected from the swarms OF people and
the crowds of other motors, she felt
at ease-and began to be interested.
Amy herself had seen little of the
place.
Il came to make use of my visit
with Claire TO test my voice" she said,
And | worked as much as my teacher
allowed. The rest of the time we made
over Claire's old clothes for me, or
shopped. or visited with her friends.
Clatre's lived here ages and never goes
out sight seeing. She doesn't care
about that sort of thing | do"
This gave Mrs. Talbot a feeling of
equality at once. If she happened to
be ignorant of the names of streets
and buildings, so was Amy-they were
exploring together.
She began to feel sentimental about
1t.
DO you remember the day we found
the hollow in Peeps Woods?" she
asked once. THAT was the last time
we went exploring together"
Yes, I remember" the young lady
looked extremely bored by the men
ton of her home and so uninteresting
a thing as a hollow in a woods!
She made her mother spend some of
her money on new suit and an up-to-
date hat. The family approved of the
outfit very much Mrs. Talbot gasped
at the amount needed. Amy insisted
on blouses to match the suit, Jane on
couple of dark silk dresses for the
mother to wear about the apartment
Mrs. Talbot wanted to put the things
away, and wear her black coat-now in
its sixteenth year, Jane said-the girls
answered her arguments that clothes
were made TO be worn, not hung in
moth-proof closets!
So when she and Amy went sight
seeing, she was nicely dressed, and
felt rather stiff with all her grandeur
Here's the highest building in the
city, think the highest in the world"
Amy said. consulting the guide book

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: A young

cause he didn't have time. We made
plans to meet on Sunday afternoon
at two o'clock That day my father
was using our car and | walked three
miles to get TO her house. When |
reached there at ten minutes of two

him.

excitedly. Jim, what dear you are.

"What'S in a Name?" By MILDRED MARSHALL Facts about your name; its history; mean ins; whence 1t was derived; sisni6cance;
 yous lucky day and lucky jewel.
ANITA

THE lovely Spanish favorite Anna has won almost as prominent . place among the feminine names of our coun,ry as the equally exotic Juanita which followed the song of that title. Anita, however, is much more red0lent of North America than it's prototype. For Anita, signifying grace, has an origin parallel with Anne.
 About the time that the mother of Samuel was recorded in Biblical chronicles as the original Hannah, the etymological way was being paved for the entrance of Anita through the gateway of Spain. Byzantium, that kingdom of royal splendor, paid hon. age to St. Anna who Is thought to be fare-back to the great Roman deity.
 The daughter of Emperor Basil call ing herself Anna, married Grand Prince of Muscovy and carried the name into Russia, where 1t was sub jected to the Slavic influence and is sued forth in various forms of diminu- tives and endearments, one being the pretty Amar, which still has vogue there. The susceptibility of the name to the influence of all tongues prob- ably brought 1t to the attention of soft-syllabled Spain. who adopted 1t, cut on the IT" and changed the Tn" to n" for euphony's sake, making the charming Ana, which has great popu- larlty there. But Spain no sooner adopts name than 1t must have Q diminutive. after the Latin fashion, hence Anita.
 Italy took Anita and called her Ninetta, which was later subjected to diminutive process and issued forth as Mama.
 Anita's talismanic gem Is the cats eye, which has greater mystic quail ties than those of any other jewel. It has the power of hypnotism and Is said to be charm against evil splr- it's. It is a sacred stone in India where It's dazzling white light shot with brilliant green imbuss 1t with un- canny powers. Thursday is Anita's lucky day and her lucky number. The poinsetta is her flower.

no hen in this barnyard will have any thing to do with them"
 That night when the hens went to bed 1t was very, very dark, and those that had little ones cuddled them close under their wings.
 The new hens-they were Guinea Hens, which, of course, you have | guessed before this-went to bed away up in the branches of the nearby trees as they always do, and if anything disturbs them they quickly cry with loud squawk something that sounds 1 like "Go back! Go back" Bob Dog, the collie, was asleep, and he did not hear sound, but the Guineas did, and in the middle of the night came their loud cry of "Go back , Go back.''
 Don't you know any better than to make that silly noise in the middle of the night?" scolded Brown Hen. You are rightly named clowns, but am sorry you are hens as we'll"
 Bob Dog awoke, too, and with bound out of his house he came bark Ing With all his might, and in a minute he had by the leg man who had come creeping toward the henhouse to carry off the hens in bag.
 After the excitement was over Bob Dog told the hens what had happened and how the new hens had given the warning or he might never have caught the robber
 "lf it wasn't for that awful cry they make" said old Yellow Hen, after call on the Guineas they would be very nice companions, and they are very genteel, I am sure"
 But 1t was the cry that saved us last night said Mrs. Brown Hen. q shall never again judge any one from | appearances"

THE RIGHT THING

 THE RIGHT TIME By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
CALLING CARDS

Nothing is so difficult but that it may be found out by seeking.-Terrence.
 A WRITER on social usage has \ called attention to the fact that in the countries of Europe the eti- quette of the calling card is clearly laid down by social law; in this coun- try 1t is left in the air.
 If there were but congress of cus- tom where some one could go and in troduce law setting forth the occa- sions on which the calling card can with propriety be used and the occa- sions on which 1t cannot be used how much confusion could be avoided. As this cannot be done, we can only do our best with our calling cards. and trust to luck and instinctive good taste that we will not break such laws as there are.
 In some sections of the country 1t is customary for newcomers to make the first call, and as cards are the em- blems of calls the rules regulating them can be grouped with those regu-
 
 1t Is customary for the old resident to make the first call. In still other places 1t is usual for a newcomer to send out at-home cards to such per sons as she chances to meet and de- sires to become acquainted with
 It is usual. however, in most places, for the old resident to make the first call. It Is essential for the person called on to return this first call or else run the risk of being called rude. The newcomer who waits for others to call on her, no matter where she Is, will do better than the newcomer who makes first calls where this Is not cus- tOpary.
 Here are few hints which should be observed in the etiquette of card usage:
 Always call or leave cards within ten days after a dinner, reception or dance invitation. whether it Is accept ed or declined.
 Call or leave cards after teas, also, unless you are sure that custom of the neighbOrh0Od exempts you from this duty. In some of the big cities, among many groups, cards are not re- Quired after teas. But an unnecessary call or card can never be objected to.
 Send cards when it is impossible to attend tea for which cards have been sent.
 0yyn rGS Nr A< ho nP the mother of bride whose wedding or reception at the house you have at tended.
 Married women leave card of their own for each woman of the household, card of their husband for each married woman and another for her husband. Young men or bachelors of any age leave cards for the daugh- ter of the household and for her mother.
 Here are five "don'ts" about cards: Never regret an invitation on card. An invitation sent on card, if 1t demands an answer, should be an- swered by note. l-....
 Never leave card without making call on any ones day at home
 Do not return first calls by card alone unless the hostess is not home when you call. In that case . card may bs left.
