CHAPTER VI (Continued)
he Summons.

It was not long ere Nora herself returned to the house.
 She tried to evade Mrs. Sanderson's s eyes and gain the shelter of her bed- room. But the elder woman stayed her. Placing a hand on her arm, she drew her out into the hall Nora she said, in husky emo- tional tones, "I have something to say to yoe.'' Nora's tear-stained face crimson ed, then grew pale. Mrs. Sander son went on. ''I have a confession to make" she said. When I came home, a little time ago, I could not find you. I looked for you in the garden, and l heard you speaking to some one in the arbor. We'll, I listened" A look of terror gleamed in Nora's eyes
 ''You listened" she gasped 'Yes. It wasn't a very nice thing | to do, I admit. But it was not all ] curiosity on my part, Nora-beHeve me-"
 The girl, however, seemed paralyz- | ed with fear.
 'How much did you hear?" she | asked in the same dry voice. "Only that your father wished you to go away with him and that you 1 promisedA to do so." Mrs. Sanderson replied.
 The color stole back to Nora's 1 cheeks. A penetrating look at Mrs Elanderson had convinced her that her secret was still safe Thank God you heard no more,'' she said beneath her breath. 'I wish I had" candidly declared the elder woman. "I might be able | then, to prove what a true friend I am to you, Nora As it is-well what is the use of talking? And | now, after all I've said and all you've promised, you are going away" | ''It is my duty,'' said Nora, her eyes swimming in tears. l And what do you think your go. | ing will mean toto my son?"
 "Your-sonr' Nora looked at he, quickly.
 "Yes-rny boy whose life you have cheered by your music these past | three months" said Mrs Sanderson Did you never guess that he wa. my son?"
 'T have thought it possible" ad. mitted the girl.
 'He is all I have in the world, . said Mrs Sanderson passionate1y | DO you remember my speaking o him once?''
 l Yes, I remember
 You asked me a curious question that day." continued the woman. "Dt you remember that, too?'' Nora bent her head. At that moment the door opened and man entered. Both looked round at him.
 "Oh-Rashi," said Mrs. Sanderson 'Tll come to you presently He bowed, smiled and backed out closing the door. Mrs. Sanderso1 turned again to Nora, but the ques tion she was about to repeat diec on her lips.
 The girl was staring wildly at her She was ghastly pale, and wal trembling like one with ague.
 'Who was that?" she asked. Tn words literally shot from her.
 Mrs. Sanderson answered slowly regarding the girl with a perplexe, frown.
 'It was Bashi, the Jap I brough back from town" she said "At tn last moment I decided to engage
 Japanese servant to take Mary place."
 There was a pause. Then Nor laughed hysterically, and, it seeme to Mrs. Sanderscen, wholly irreIev antly. "Oh-I seel" the girl stuttered.
 Mrs. Sanderson felt chilled to tn bone.
 The look in Morals eyes made he afraid.

HOT WEATHER FEET

This is the time of year when ones feet seem to give the most trouble. Tn the hot weather they seem to swell So every pair of shoes is too small and no pair is comfortable The feet tire easily and the ankles ache Here are some suggestions for cooling and refreshing foot baths
 Generally there is nothing so re- freshing as a bath of salt seawate Bags of rock salt or sea salt can be purchased at almost any shop and are never expensive. A very strong solution of salt and hot water should be made, whenever you reach home tired, with aching feet. This should be put in a basin on the floor and the feet soaked for 15 or 20 minutes. They should then be rinsed with cool water and 1ow-hee1ed slippers or heeless sandals worn.
 If you have any tendency to rheumatism soak the feet in a strong hot solution of epson salts, then rinse and dry and wear hee1ess slip pers for a time. IT you haven't the time for this, when you come in tired and with aching feet rub the so1es, and toes with a cut lemon wipe dry and wear loose, low slippers for while. If you have plenty of time give your feet the hot salt bath, then lie down with the feet still bare turn on the face and stretch the feet out on a pillow soles upward This is particularly effective if there is great pain in the insteps.
 It always rests and protects the feet to give them a pedicure, which Is of coarse always more easily done after a hot soaking. The more the feet are rubbed and massaged the more rested they will become and the more strength they win have to re- sist fatigue. Spraying them with toilet vinegar or toilet water is also very refreshing. Talcum powder is always cooling and soothing.
 Bobby-At 14 you have, at least six more years in which to grow taller. Freck1es can be b1eached but you cannot get rid of them since they are natural to you and will be com ing out on the skin during the Spring and Summer months.
 A Male-With dark blue eyes and auburn hair your selection of colors in ties will be first-green, then brown especially in a Ienna shade. violet, cream color and after these any colors except vivid shades in red The advice given, fer selecting colors of a darker shade than the eyes, is for the purpose of strengthening the color in types of people that need this help

 T ought never to have brought her here," she reflected uselessly. God alone knows what she is. And as for her father. he may be one of the biggest criminals existing!"
 Then came other thoughts.
 Perhaps, after all. 1t might be best that Nora should go.
 Anyway. I shall take no further steps to prevent it, she decided fi- nally.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENT
 Dear Doctor: I cannot refrain
 from expressing to you my apprecia-
 tion of your reducing system. After
 I stopped nursing my baby, took on
 from 35 to 40 pounds. and I reached
 21O and I am only 25 years old!
 Yesterday I weighed 190 pounds, a
 loss of 20 pounds in one month and
 six days. I have dieted dozens of
 times but never dieted intelligently
 before. I used to use enough Calories
 in my tea, coffee and butter to keep
 my family sustained. but like the rest
 of the F. F. F. I am really a very
 small eater. Seveen or eight cnoco- late creams a day surely couldn't hurt
 me! My 1000 to 1900 c. per day sat isfy me now perfectly. Yours is truly a worthy service to humanity.-Mrs. J."
 Nursing a baby does require some added nourishment for the mother, and many mothers, not realizing that it doesn't require so very much more added nourishment, will eat so much that they rapidly put on weight. This is unnecessary. and is harmful. have had a letter from one mother who gained 80 pounds during this period. In your case, you gained after you | Stopped nursing the baby. You prob ably continued your excess nOur1Sn- | ment when there wasn't the need for | it. I am glad that you have seen the | light and are now reducing, as you ] say, intelligently.
 Your comment on the chocolate | creams makes me think to ask this: did you ever reckon how much weight you could gain on five choco- 1 late creams (50O C.) or five pats of | butter or 500 c. of any food over l your maintenance diet eveery day Tor a year? Reclining on 400O c. in a | pound of fat, work this out. It is il- Illuminating and it certainly shows up how important a knowledge of Calor- | ies is.
 Dear Miss Peters: I have always 1 read your articles about getting thin. | Now that's all right for fat people, l but when it comes to a thin fellow | like me it is of no benefit at all. I
 am 16 years old and am pretty tall | for my age. I am always in the best | of health, eat good. take exercise yet | cannot broaden. If you could recom-
 mend a way of getting broader, | through your articles in the paper, it
 would benefit the thin people gener- | a1lN. Yours truly, s. S."
 You are mistaken, dear boy. If

APPEAL IS MADE
TO HELP FUND
Contributions Are Asked for
Woodrow Wilson Founda-
ton From N. J. People

TRENTON, Jan. 14:-An appeal
is being made today to have all the
flair minded citizens of New Jer-
sey respond to the invitation of the
Woodrow Wilson Foundation to
contribute toward the establishment
of this honorary testimonial to the
former president. The appeal is
made by United States District
Court Judge j. Warren Davis, of
this city, chairman of the New yer-
sey committee. The campaign, un-
der the auspices of representative
citizens of the state, opens Monday.
and its object is TO raise one million
dollars for the establishment of a
fund, the income of which is to be
divided from time to time to the
individual or group rendering the
most meritorious service to public
welfare and liberal thought.
AS chairman of the state commit
tee, Judge Davis calls attention to
the peculiar obligations of the citi-
zens of this state, because of the
fact that the former president is
himself a citizen of New Jersey; that
he began his public career here in
this state; that he went from the
governorship to the presidency, and
that he was the head of the nation
during one of its most critical
periods
