TO hgurs the precise yield on a bond

To figure the precise yield on bond it
is necessary to use yield tables but the
approximate yield can roughly be figured
out by the following formula: Divide the
closing quotation on a bond into the rate
Of the annual return. If the bond is selling
appreciation Of the principal To do this
subtract the market quotation from PAR,
or 100, and divide the remainder by the
number of years the bond has to run be-
fore maturity. For example, II q per
cent bond Is selling at so and has ten
years to run, tho annual return will be e.66
per cent The difference between par and
the market price Will be 10 points, sub
tractng 90 from 100. Dividing ten points
by ten years. the quotation will be l. This
figure is to be added to 6.G6, which is the
annual return, and the result, 1865 per
cent. Will give you the approximate yleld.

the announcement il to be a denial

Peppers Appointment
Meets With Approval

THE appointment of George
Wharton Pepper to the post left
vacant by the death of Senator
Penrose seems to have been re-
ceived with universal approval.
Here's what a Philadelphia friend
wrote to me about him:
you do not know how pleased we
are at the nomination Of George
Wharton Pepper. He is a fine
lawyer. a fine churchman. and q
gentleman. He Is q vestryman Of
st. Marks Church. and when .
supper was given there recently for
the choir boys. Mr.. Pepper was
present and the boys wanted q
speech from him. So they shouted,
Salt. Pepper! Salt. Vinegar. Pep
per! Mustard. Salt. Vinegar Pep
peri until Mr.. Pepper laughingly
gave in.
"He isn't at all the professional
politician type. and Pennsylvania
may be proud to have him in the
Senate. You may remember that
he stumped the country for Senator
Frelinghuysen. arguing against the
League Of Nations. and assuredly he
helped to defeat it."

tration. Mrs. Newton d., Baker.
wife of President Wilson's Secretary

former Secretary OF Agriculture

And Lindley NJ. Garrison. sometime

It's Mrs. Bakers first visit here
since she left Washington on March
last and she's enjoying herself
thoroughly. She slipped away from
the dinner party which General and
Mrs. Common were giving on Thurs
day evening to go to the White
House and arrived there all alone.
But the moment she got through
the line she was surrounded. and
she had lots of fun renewing old
acquaintance.
1t must be rather fun to do" q
White House reception as a private
citizen, when heretofore one has only
viewed them from the receiving
line. I wonder how the changes at
the White House impressed Mrs.
Baker. She. didn't comment on
them in the brief word I had with
her. but she did say that she hoped
there'd be dancing. Women OF
my age don't dance much In Cleve-

The Merediths didn't reach here
in time for the reception. and. after
all. they couldn't have compared
this reception with those Of the
Wilson regime-at least not from
the inside-for there were no White
House receptions during the time
that they were in the Cabinet.
They are here for a stay of some
length. and all sorts Of parties are
being planned for them, beginning
with the dance that Mrs. Thomas
F. Walsh gave last night.
They are at a hotel for the time
being. but understand they are
quite likely to take a house-or an
apartment-and settle down here
for q month or two. Which GER
tainly would be nice.

BY ELOISE.


1t is cool looking and unques-
tionably smart, this one-piece
dress and cape for late spring
wear. The main ATTRACTION, how
ever, is the youthful air which
attends such a cape frock. This
model is particularly adapted to
the lines of the ordinary figure,
but the tall, slender woman and
the short, stoclsy one will both be
able to wear it with grace. The
cape is becoming to the tall fig
ure and the straight line, low
wasted frock to the stout fig
ure. 1t is remarkable to find a
garment so happily conceived that
it is at the same time smart and
suitable for all figures.
A fine black and white check
forms the frock and the turn
back collar on the swagger cape.
The cape and bindings on the
frock are a bright jockey green.
Wide sleeves and patent leather
belt worn low over the hips are
distinctive features of the frock.
Gray slippers and stockings, it
may be noted here, are much
prettierJ with black and white
checked or striped outfit than
black and white. The reason for
this is that the effect of the
black and white checks is gray.
A gray hat is also more in keep
ing than black and, white one,

JoAN's DIsPLEAsURE.
Chapter 81.

Chapter 81.
Margaret was again, as she said
to herself, between two fires-her
love for Joan and her love for
Craig Forester. Had Margaret
Hayden loved Joan's father, the
man to whom her mother married
her, perhaps her problem would
not have been so difficult But
Craig Fo. lester was the one love
of her life, and had she not pos
sessed wonderful will power as
well as great love for Joan, she
could not have resisted him.
Now because of Professor New
bury's remark Joan was disturbed,
supicious and terribly upset, She
left early, pleading work. Neither
she nor her mother mentioned the
subject again before she left. but
it was in the mind of each Of them
when they said goodnight.
Could Margaret have observed
Joan when she reached her studio
she would have been more than a
little disturbed. more than a little
unhappy.
Il won't have it! Che shant
marry him-just as she was get
ting to be so like a pal too! Why
does she want to be so silly% and
the courageous girl who so s l.
dom wept gave way to a passion
OF tears and strangled sobs that
would have frightened Margaret
had she seen her.
The very thing toward which
Margaret's efforts had been bent
had worked out against her. She
had thought that when she had
become more of a pal, a friend as
well as a mother to her daughter.
Joan would be inclined to look at
her in a little different light-as
having the same right that she did
to order her own life, to take her
happiness where she found it.
That she was mistaken in her
assumption would have been prov
ed to her could she have looked in
upon her daughter that night.
Joan did not mention the subject
when her mother came down to
the studio, but her manner chang.
ed. She was cold, aloof. Even in
discussing her work, 1.-The article
she was writing, there was none
of that camaraderie Of the last few
weeks. She did not ask her moth
or to remain to luncheon, ana
when Margaret proposed to, she
acquiesced coldly. Finally Mar
garet asked:
aren't you feeling well. Joan 2"
Perfectly, thank you"
Then something is troubling
you. Is it anything you can tell
