IS YOUR SKIN FINE2
By EDNA KENT TORRES.

There are very few compleXions that can stand the test of close examina- tion in bright sunlight The suns rays have been well called pitilesS since they search out and show up the smallest flaw in ones completion The most common fault is enlarged pores, which are particularly prominent un- der a bright light No amount of powder or cream can disguise them.
 They cannot be made fine if ones health is not fairly good and ones digestion in practically perfect condi- ton. These physical details must be looked after intelligently. But fior the rest of it, absolute cleanliness is all that Is required. However, an enor- nous amount can be done immediate ly toward reducing the pores by the proper use of astringents.
 The general daily face treatment which I recommend. will make any skin perfect if the digestion is good. Hold hot wet cloths over the face for about two minutes. This opens the pores and stimulates the skin. Rub in a quantity of cleansing cream after this, working it thoroughly into the skin. Then wash the face with hot water and mild soap. If possible scrub the skin with a small flesh brush. Rinse with hot water, cold water, and rub the skin with a piece of ice.
 If the skin is dry, rub in tiny bit of cream before the cold rinse and the ice. The ice is invaluable be- cause it shrinks up those enlarged pores and makes the skin smooth and fine in appearance.

CHaPTER 0scxxH

For our weekend jaunt Neal se- lected pretty little lake resort about 60 miles from the city By now my ankle was in good condition. so l insisted on running up in my car packing him and Phoebe in the rum ble seat, while the baggage was dis tributed between the running-board and the place next to me.
 Driving up the steady grade that leads into the hills and to the lake of our destination occupied ne pretty much. But it didn't keep me from worrying because the morn ing hadn't brought the expected let ter from Jim. Nor, on the other hand, did it keep me from realizing that I'd have been a prlg to insist on stopping at home to watch each delivery, with the longed-for letter in view.
 Phoebe's happy voice floated to laughs and nipples and trills-the bird-like happiness of youth was in it now, instead of the tense and ter rifying woman's eagerness in which she berated the fate and the family that denied her to Neal
 All through the happy day I re- joiced that I'd come with the chil- dren. And yet there was an ugly uneasiness in my mind which would not down.
 LESLIE Two. ffcflGX
 In the afternoon I called up my apartment to see if there was any
 
 no one answered; which might be put down to poor service, and might mean that Hedwig and Angy had taken advantage of my absence to take an afternoon off.
 After a dip in the lake, Phoebe and Neal had got back into walking tods and gone for a stroll through the pine woods. When they hadn't re- turned by seven, I added my uneasi- ness over this to the fact that another trial over the toll wire didn't give my apartment, and, tacking this to my general disquiet-the "hunch" I'd felt about coming-I worked myself into a frightful state of nerves.
 Seven-f1fteen and still Phoebe's room was empty. So, f1ingfng cape about my evening finery, I went down to the verarda to while away the tan talking hours of waiting where there would be coming and going to dis tract my mind bit.
 Hardly had I settNsl myself in a big wicker chair when up to the porte eochere drove a car, and out stepped Daisy Condon. The car itself, evil dently driven by its only other occu- pant and not pi1oted by a chauffeur, then went over to the parking place. Daisy teetered about on the steps a minute before she vanished into the inn.

PUTTING UP THE PINEAPPLE.
By LAURA A. HERMAN,

To Can Pineapple by the Cold Pack Method (reQuested by Mrs. D. J): Hold the pineapple by the green top and cut it into slices. It is easier to pare these slices than to pare the whole pineapple. Remove the eyes, Cut into cubes of the desired size Put these cubes into a wire basket or into a piece of cheeSecloth and lower them into enough boiling water to cover; put the cover on the kettle and let them "blanch'' in this way (under steadily boiling water) for 5 minutes Then remove at once and hold the cheesecloth for a moment under cold running water (never let it soak in cold water, as this inpairs its delicate favor)-
 Now place the cubes at once in hot, sterilized jars, and pour over them a medium-thin Sirup made by adding 3 quarts of sugar to quarts of water and letting it boil for minutes. You may use the water in which the pine apple was blanched in making this sirup. as it contains much of the pine apple flavor. (The 'blanching water of all other fruits except pineapple cannot be used because it contains objectionable acids that must be dis carded: but we blaneh the pineapple primarily to soften the hard fibre. so there is no reason why this water cannot be used for sirup).
 Alter pouring in the strip to within 1-2 inch of the jar~top. adjust the rubber rings (which have been dipped
  glass tops, and partially seaP'; then put your jars into your wash-boiler canner (filled with boiling water which will come two inches over the jar-tops) and sterilize for 30 minutes.
 Remove from canner, completely seal, and invert to test for leaks. Take care that no draushts strike the hot jars, or they may crack In filling them, let them stand on a cloth WrunS out of very hot water.
 Cherry-PfneappIe Marmalade: (An unusual and delicious preserve.) Stone any kind of cherries, SSveet or sour, and to one pound of them, measuring after stonirg, add 1-2 pound of finely diced pineapple It is best to chop end dice these fruits, separately, in a wooden chopping bowl, as much juice will be lost if you use a food chopper. Place the finely chopped fruits to- gether in the preserving kettle and add 1 pound of granulated sugar. Bring to boiling point and let sim mer until thick, stirring constantly. (Use the jelly test''@that is remove them from fire when two drops of the mar n1alade juice will form at once on a spoon when a little of it is held high in Gre air and dripped back into the ketEe-) Turn into hot, sterilized jelly with melted parafhne.
 Strawberry-Pineapp Conserve: 2 cups shredded pineapple, 2 cups straw shredded pineapple in only Just enough water to cover and when 1t is tender add the strawberries to 1t; continue to cook until the strawberries are soft. Then measure the hot fruit and add 3-4 as much sugar as fruit Re turn to the preserving kettle and sim mer until it falls in very heavy drops from a spoon. Pour into hot, ster- ilized glasses and cover when. cold with parahne. (F1ne for guest SUD- -@A

 "'Course I am,'' returned Phoebe unexpectedly. All women are where their love is concerned You can't go back on us. Anne. You've got to stand by ps and get us the little there's possible for US. Virginia's stealing our big happiness. And because Neal feels your prejudice against an elope- ment, I can't do thing but sit and wait. Now I want my holiday---and you're going to give it to me-

 You could come here, Phoebe"
 "Oh. Anne---pleasei I want a hol- iday,'' said Phoebe in a tremulous voice. 'I want to get away---with Neal Won't you? Won't you, please, let me have this little bit of happi- ness?

In The Theatres

POLI'S
 ''The Gilded Lily" the Paramount super-special production, starring beautiful Mae Murray, closes it's en- gagement at Polrs tonight. Few pictures seen at this house have been better received than this colorfuI story o ia girl wh oremained good in spite of overwhelming obstacles ard temp tations. One of the most desirable features about this fine photo-drama is the manner in which the interest is sustained to tn eend. It does not ventilate it's denouement until it reaches a smashing climax.
 -Polis vaudeville closing tonight also has been well received. The big act "A Trick Proposal with it's comedy, melody and pretty girls is going over combination of Nora Bayes and Irene Franklin and sings character songs in an inimitable manner. Prince and Bell have a highly effective act writ artists sing in excellent voice. The Three Raymonds complete a good bill with an acrobatic act.
 Tomorrow, the feature picture at ''B1ack Roses" The star vaudeville offering will be Stepenoff and his Russian Ballet. Friday will be a big Amateur night.
 EMPIRE.
 Little three-year-old Master Rich ard Headrick, better known to intim- ate and screen friends as "Hchie,' ' plays a charming part in Alice Lakes newest picture, The Greater Claim which is now showing at the Empire theatre.
 His engagement with Metro for this picture has a delightful history. Af- ter Miss Lake had finished reading the story of '@The Greater ClaiIn,'' she rushed to the casting office and ask ed that the lad be given the child part Fortunately, he was not en- gagged elsewhere, and was at once cast for the role of her son.
 Edward Cecil, Jack Dougherty, Len ore Lynard, De Witt c. Jennings and Florence Gilbert all have important parts in support of Miss Lake. Wes- ley Ruggles directed .he produc- ton.

Letter From Rev. A, T. Allen
to Baptist Courier.
Dear DR.. Cody:

Dear DR.. Cody:
We arrived here November 10th,
to take charge of our new work. Our
people have been most cordial and
kind in their welcome to US and we
are already beginning to feel at
home. On our arrival goodly num-
ber of the members met US at the
parsonage and did everything they
could for our pleasure and comfort.
We found that they had already un-
packed and placed our furniture and
had filled our pantry with good
things to eat This has not yet stop
ped. We haven't words to express our
appreciation of all this kindness. 1t
makes us want to serve these good
people with all our strength and we
are trusting that God will make US
able to live up to that desire and that
the work will be blessed of him.
We have a church here with,
beautiful building and one chat is
strong in membership and good
works. It is thoroughly organized and
there is apparent a mind to work.
The young people impress one as be-
ing interesting, active and aggressive.
This rejoeics the pastors heart and
is hopeful sign. This church has
been served by line of strong men,
the effect of whose work abides. Our
prayer is that God will use US to
perpetuate the constructive work
that has been done here through the
years.
The parsonage is one of the most
modern and convenient that we have
seen. 1t has water, lights, steam heat
and every convenience. We are
charmed with it and will enjoy occu-
pying it 1 am sure. The Baptists of
Edgefeld have church and parson-
age which are a credit to the town
and in which they can take just
pride.
We left a good church ad people
who were as loyal and devoted
friends to us as we could ever hope
for. 1t was great struggle to decide
to give them up, especially since the
entire church, without a dissenting
vote, asked US to reconsider and stay
with them. We can never forget
them, their great-kindness and the
way they stood by us and gave US
richly of their sympathy and love.
May the God of all Grace reward
them and send them man after his
own heart.
The doors are open and we will
be glad for you to come to see US in
our new home.
