WHENAGIRLMARRIES
INTERESTING STORY OF EARLY Welded LIFE
BY Ann Lisle-

1.-The next evening / reached the
office early and went over things
carefully. / saw clearly then what
| should have had sense enough to
see long before. Dick had been
stealing from the firm-from Mr..
Harrison. Something in me curled
up and died then. I'd managed to
go on caring in spite of all Dick
had done to me, but when i saw
he'd been using me to cheat his
partner, to do crooked business. /
resented IL more bitterly than any
thing that had happened before.
"I think l hated him then. And
I made up my mind that when he
came in I'd tell him / was going to
give the facts to Mr.. Harrison"
But you didn't" 1 gasped.
"No-because he didn't come in
that evening. He telephoned 10 say
that he was called away on a trip.
and he hung up without giving me
q chance to say a word. / couldn't
go to Mr.. Harrison with my sus-
picions unless Dick were there to
fight for himself. l got all mixed
up. / didn't know right from
wrong. | couldn't tell whether l
wanted to warn Mr.. Harrison be-
cause l thought that the square
thing to door II / wanted to tell
on Dick because I was jealous and
would take any means OF queering
him with the girl l wanted to take
him from"
"The end came suddenly, how
ever. One night 1 heard from Dick.
He told me he was dining with Mr..
Harrison and would come to the
office with him after dinner. And
in a voice that sounded insane he
ordered me to fix the books.
"I went to the office-but I didn't
touch the books. l sat waiting. 1
knew the time had come when 1
must tell Mr.. Harrison the truth.
Suddenly Dick rushed in. He looked
as If he had gone mad. There wasn't
n name too terrible for him to call
me. He seized me in his arms. I
didn't know II he was going to kill
me-or kiss me. Suddenly he told
me / must go away with him-at
once.
I'VE had a terrible struggle,
and in the midst of it in walked
your husband. He got me away
from Dick. He let Dick go
when l begged him to. And then
he turned to me very quietly and
asked for my story. He knew
I'd been helping Dick. He found
n handkerchief marked with my
initials.
IT want to tell you some Of
the things your husband did for
me. 1 want you to know how
proud you can be OF a man who
is capable of helping a woman as
impersonally as IL she were a

EMOTION AND MAN
LEARN TO COMMAND YOUR FEELINGS
BY Beatrice Fairfax

closely woven 10 the fibre Of mind
and soul and body. we are recog-
nizing that human emotion IL not
a thing Of which to be ashamed
Creative energy Is the best
heritage of mankind. 1t poDu-
lates our world and expresses it.
self in all the big achievements
of civilization from bridge build
ing and the discovery Of new
continents to the writing Of great
pieces of music or magnificent
poems.
Creative energy constructively
applied is one Of the things
which distinguishes US from the
brutes.
The man who fritters away his
life in one petty love affair after
another hasn't the creative force
for big work, finds relaxation and
a restfully different outlet for his
driving power in pleasures which
appear to US to be tawdry and un-
worthy. Sometimes the man or
woman Of genius finds the pre-
sure of his gifts 90 tremendous
that II cannot all be expressed
through his work and then We
get a riot of living which we or
dinary mortals cannot Judge be-
cause we do not understand 1T
nor yet need such outlet. 90.
Most Of us have enough power
to do something worth while In
this world. Most Of US have an
emotional driving power which We
can use to our own bettermeht and
that Of the world. Most OF US can
find work which gives us . fine
outlet for the emotional energy We
too often waste. ~
The restlesseness of today, the
urge for pleasure and for self-ex-
preston which 30 many are feel
ing need not be a force to dcatroy.
as many teachers are insisting. 1t
can be force for building.
The great lesson for US to learn
is that we cannot express this urge
healthily, adequately or with real
satisfaction to soul, mind or body
unless we make 1t a constructive
thing. -. .''
In finding something worth while
to do, in contributing something
valuable to life, We find the most
gratifying outlet for emotion.
Don't be ashamed of your feel
ings. Don't think you are . brutal
or low type Of human because you
are full OF surging feeling. b glsd
that you have tho potential force
Of such strong emotions. And har-
ness them. Make your feelings
work for you and for the world.
Then those feelings are bound to
be q blessing and not q curse.

A RECENT news Item quotes
~ a restaurateur as saying
- that for so cents a day
working woman can buy enough
food to supply all her needs and
keep her in good, shape. THEN
he suggests what woman should
select to keep her food within the
go cents. For breakfast, dough-
nuts and coffee; fol luncheon, a
hot sandwich and coffee, and Tor
dinner, meat with vegetables,
bread and coffee.
Milk, butter, whole grain bread
and leafy vegetables and fruit
seem to be entirely omitted. Let
us suppose that G.he. woman he
has in minds he yhcluded all
women in hfs Statement as
quoted-let us say n worker.
The young woman is twenty
and gets to work at eight. She
works from eight until noon, four
hours. And she does this on the
grea Sc soaked doughnut and cup
1.of coffee.
When noon comes along, and
the starving system is again
craving satisfaction. there is the
hot sandwich. What Is a hot sand
wich? 1t is cold slice of bread.
The "hot" comes from the contact
with a generous spoonful of hot,
greasy gravy poured over just
before serving.
The food value of the sandwich
is not ve-y great to begin with,
butts digestibility is retarded
by the soaking OF the greasy
gravy into the starchy bread.
Again, normal appetite is killed
off.

FOR WORKING WOMEN
ALL WOMEN NEED NOURISHING FOOD
Loretto c. Lynch--
BY Loretto c. Lynch

/. At night, after the days work
is done, there is the meat and
vegetable dish. Since there Is but
80 or 35 cents left with which
to purchase the evening meal,
there can be no great choice or
variety in the vegetables.
Generally speaking. this diet sug-
gested is perfect prescription
for chronic indigestion and loss OF
ambition to do real work.
The sad part Of the whole thing
is that many girls follow just such
a diet. Where are the vitamines
that make one feel--yes, feel like
working? Vitamines are found In

tomato juice, in real butter, In
