because she was eager to make their
little home beautiful. She hadn't had
baby boy who was the most beauti-
full thing in the world. for six precious
months, and followed his tiny white
coffin to the cemetery. Sally hadn't a
thing on earth to worry her-why
shouldn't she look young.
She had though that Andy would
stop, after a while. But when he
didn't when he went on and on, talk
ing about how pretty Sally was, and
how well she danced Barbara told
him some of the thoughts that were
seething in her mind. Surprised, he
made the fatal mistake of trying to
argue with her. Sally's dresses
couldn't cost so much as Barbara said
they did; Sally surely didn't pay a
maid to take care of her!
They walked up the hill to the sta
ton, and then out through the town
to their little house-taxicabs were ex
travaganti nti-arguing all the way. Bar
bara was impatient: she had had to
hurry to wash her hair, and trim her
hat, and dress after Andy telephoned
her that morning about the party. The
excitement had exhausted her; by the
time they reached "Weeacre" she had
been too worn out to do anything but
fling the despised blue suit on the floor
and tumble into bed If Andy wanted
to rave about Sally Brabant, who
spent more month than he made ir
year, let him. She was sure she
didn't care!

hearted, wondering what it was thai

If Stomach is
Out of Order
-"Diapepsin'

livery year regularly more than a
million stomach sufferers in the Unit
ed States, England and Canada take
Pape's Diapepsin, and realize not only
immediate, but lasting relief. This
harmless antiacid helps digest any
thing you eat and overcomes a sour,
gassy or out-of-order stomach in five
minutes. If your meals do not fis
comfortably, or what you eat lies like
a lump of lead in your stomach, or
if you have heartburn, that is sign
of indigestion. Get from your drug
gist a sixty-cent cease of Pape's Dia-
pepsin. There will be no sour risings,
no belching of undigested food mixed
with acid, no gas or heartburn, no
fullness or heavy feeling in the ston-
ach, no nausea, headache or intestinal
gripping. Prove to yourself in five
minutes that your stomach is as good
as new; that there is nothing really
wrong. Stop this food fermentation
and begin eating what you want with
fear of discomfort or indigestion.

she had told him nothing about
it. They often arranged little
surprises of that sort for each ottEr,
but as rule it was Andy who made
the bigger things; she only painted
furniture, or delighted him with new
rag carpet for the stairs, in which he
insisted on finding bits of materials
that he remembered, much to her
amusement.
She made a useless trip to the kitch-
en- to survey the chicken that had IN
augurated the reign of the new COOK

And oh, why doesn't Andy Gomez
She was especially eager to see him,
because since the night before rela-
tions between them had been rather
strained. 1t had started after their
little party in town with Sally and
Neal Calhoun, when she and Andy
were on the train on their way home.
And it had hung in the air at break
fast. making that usually cheerful
meal a distressing event for Barbara,
though Andy had read his paper as II
nothing had happened.

ing thing" he had commented, as
their train rolled out of the station
and began Jogging along through the
Bronx "She always seems to Weal
exactly the right thing"
Now. Sally's clothes had been q
thorn in Barbara's happiness all eve
ming. 1t was all right to save your
money when you We're just fixing III
a new house, and she knew that Andy
appreciated her not asking for any
money for herself. But he ought tC
know that under any circumstances
she couldn't have afforded clothes like
Sally's-and that, if her old blue sui
looked shabby beside Sally's French
frock, why, that was no more pleas
ure to her than it was to him!
She turned away from him, leanin&
her head against the window. Sht
had re-trimmed her hat that morning
putting fresh ribbon bows on it; sh'
had told herself that it looked quite
attractive as the one in fashioT

WELL KEPT FEET

The woman who takes pride in her
feet is most particular about the sort
of shoe she buys and the condition in
which she keeps them. Shoes that are
well cared for will last two or three
times as long as shoes that are care
lessly treated This advice is particu-
larly for the woman whose income is
limited, but who must dress well on a
small amount of money.
The first care is in the actual selec-
tion of the shoes. If it is possible to
buy toward the end of the season when
prices are reduced that is something
gained but shoes should never be pur-
chased simply because they are cheap.
The woman who can not afford 10 to
20 new pairs every season can get
along very well if she has one tan pair
of shoes for walking, one plain black
kid or black satin evening slippers.
! With these she is ready for any occa-
sion. She might add a pair of mex
pensive house slippers which rest the
! feet and save wear and tear on shoes.
/ The first thing to be done with any
pair of new shoes is to have them pol
! ished before they are worn. This fills
| up the grain of the leather with a good
! oil dress and prevents staining. The
next thing is to be sure you have
enough shoe trees to fit every pair.
When one pair of shoes is taken off it
/ should be put on the trees and allowed
to air before being put in the closet.
Shoes should never be put away with
out being cleaned, and they should be
| cleaned every time after being worn.

FELTON,

Real winter weather has prevailed for
six weeks and the people are ready to
admit that the old adage, that connects
the ground hog'' with knowing some
thing about the weather, may possibly
have some 6act as a basis for truth On
February End the sun certainly came out
and the little animal certainly had op-
portunity to see its shadow-hence the
ensuing six weeks of winter weather fol-
lows If snow and ice with bitter winds is
to be accepted as part of winter, then the
ground hog story rings true for once.
It has not all been cold and snow-for
we have had thaws and the deepest mud
known for several years has been ex-
perienced-so that travel over the county
roads has been difficult The concrete
road has been the only artery that could
be Travelled with any comfort-and that
only emphasized the badness of other
roads.
To mix it up well, a heavy thunder
and lightning storm prevailed for an
hour or more early last Sunday morning,
which was accompanied by heavy rain
fall, to make the mud and mire just a
little thinner and worse if that was pos
sible
The wedding of Mr.. Lloyd Atkins. son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Atkins of Ches-
ter Pa, took place on February 9Th. He
is q grandson of James e. Barcus and
wife, also a cousin of the writer, Eliz-
aBeth c. Hill. He was born near FELTON,,
where his childhood was passed and
where he has many friends who wish the
newly weds long and happy married
life. They will reside on Broad street,
Chester after their wedding trip.
Mrs. Florence Nelson has returned to
her home in New York after a short
visit with her sister, Mrs. Wilbur Frie-
del of FELTON,.
