WHEN A WOMAN TELLS
BY RUTH AGNES ABELLNG

I might have told her that I spent

Inheritance on things with which to
beauufy my vain person 10 eusnare
more hopelessly than ever a bride
groom toward whom I felt not one
little thriH-and that now I'm Just a
girl adventuring il a work-a-day
world.
But 1 didn't tell her because she
probably would have put love at
naught and called me a fool for hav-
ing turned down a man who could
support me we'll. and in the rashness
OF a lonely moment 1 might have
agreed with her.
So have let her believe that I am
one OF those fair, frail parasites
What people think has suddenly
come 20 have n very small place in

AS 1 look back over Iny life, which
seemed quite decent while 1 was liv-

Of II. / have flirted and
tempted and because 1 played safe
for myself I thought 1 was getting
away with 1t stainlessly!
Playing upon the feelings OF men
has been an innocent and highly
game TO me. just as 1t has
been TO all thoughtless girls OF my
set.
But l have learned sex debts are

Strangely enough. 1 am not fear

Tomorrow Helga has n talk with

HERE ARE SOME POINTERS
ABOUT INEXPENSIVE SILVER"
Particular housewife. have you
ever used ten-cent near silver
spoons? Probably you never have,
and maybe you have never even
heard of them, but they exist and
are wonder fully good-looking. Some
brands are made in the better silver
plate patterns, and they are being
used by many summer cottagers who
prefer to leave their own silver be-
hind in safe deposit vaults.
Think of the peace of mind not 10
be bUrdened with silver that is OF
value to count up and watch. The
surprising part is that the ten-cent
product wears well. if not abused, one
whole season. Some housewives tell
Of having it in use for two seasons.
All it needs to keep it bright is to be
washed in hot water with silver soap.
Cottage china. oil cloth or straw
sets and japanese linen napkins set
cottage table with the silver in
extensively.
The summer vacation is an excel
lent time to have plating done.
Shabby silver pieces are inexcusable
nowadays. and besides being black
and unsightly they spoil the looks
Of anything that is put in, or on. the
pieces. If the silver is being done

Men and women who lack Il
sense of humor lose much in life
even II they do not live shorter
lives.
II you cannot laugh-at your
friends. with your friends, at your
self-your years will be short in ;his
world and your days long and

The most trying persons You
know arc those who never smile,
who never shake their sides with
laughter. and who never see the
funny side OF their own troubles.
Really. what uncomfortable per-
sons men are who take themselves
seriously. who talk all the time
about their achievements and plans,
who are worrying about the mis-
takes of congress who feel appar-

Before got Tanlac suffered witch
a severe case Of stomach trouble and
indigestion. Nothing | ate seemed to
agree with me, and at times l became
so nauseated l couldn't retain thing

caused my heart to palpitate dread
fully and almost shut off my breath,
so that | could walk only little way
without giving out completely.
II had awful sick headaches and
dizzy attacks, and was so nervous that
at times l hardly knew what l was
doing My kidneys bothered me con-
siderably and 1 had frightful pains in
the small of my back. Life was such
a burden to me that l became very
respondent.
Il finally decided to see what Tanlac
would do for me so | got bottle, and
my troubles began to disappear right
along. l now have a splendid appetite,
and can eat anything l want without
a sign of indigestion, nausea, gas, pal
pitation or shortness of breath. I'm
entirely free from headaches and dizzi-
ness, and my back no longer pains
me. My nerves have quoted down and
at night sleep just fine.
Il have gained considerable weight
and feel much better in every way than

pleasure to tell how Tanlac has helped
me, and I'm sure it will do as much
for anybody else in like condition"
