By HELEN KENDALL MOTHER AND DAUGHTER

Two suburban neighbors, pleasant women both, sat chatting over their filet crocket. Said one of them:
 Young Mrs. Archer is wonderful, isn't she? She looks very little older than her daughter. Patty, and she is even more popular with the young boys. They fairly swarm around the Archer house. and I see Mrs. Archer talking and laughing viyaci- ously with them. Patty tells me the mother"
 The other woman looked . little serious.
 How about Patty herself? Is she popular?" she asked. "Someway she seems a shy, diffident yung girl to me-a little i'll at ease and subdued. Yet she used to be a lively, merry little child, full of gay spirits. I wonder if her pretty young mother isn't overshadowing her. and uncon- sciously throwing her into the back ground.
 T knew a similar case years ago. A pretty woman, flattered by being told that she looked very little older than her daughter-like her older sister. you know-simply took the center of the stage at all their home and club doings. monopolizing the attention of the young chaps who would otherwise have been attracted to her daughter. and making the girl feel neglected, awkward. and unpopular. The boys, who would or dinarily have gone joyously about with the attractive young daughter. were held spellbound by the bril- liant banter of the mother, which amounted to a sort of flirtatious- ness, to which they were blinded be- cause of her motherhood"
 Such women are positive draw back to their daughters and hamper them instead of helping them. It Is splendid for mother to be on jolly, pleasant terms with young fellows her daughters age. but when she uses them to feed her vanity instead of treating them as friends of her childs, she is keeping that child from developing into a buoyant, self confident. happy young woman" Metropolitan Newspaper Service.

THE LOVE, CAMf.
N M ' ROMANCE

It was the same kind of thing that this man had said as he sat in the garden of the school overlooking the Hudson. Practical Mary Dallas had listened unmoved to his tirade. Ro- mantle Winifred Scott had been thrilled by it.
 Oh" she breathed now, "it is beautiful; Even if I cannot know the details, perhaps you will let me help in some way. It seems sordid to talk of money-but money does a great deal. It is very necessary even in uplift work-isnt it?"
 Tt means the success or failure Of scheme" the man admitted gently. But 1t was not for this reason that l told you of my aims. It was be- cause"
 T know, I know" she interrupt ed him. You never thought of my being of any financial help. But, you see, l am thinking of 1t. You will let me help you a little--won't you?"
 Richard Rankin did not snatch eagerly at the preferred help. That might have spoiled his plans.
 Instead he warned the girl that she would best not think too serious iy of investing any money in hIs scbeme until she had become better acquainted with him.
 Who knows but what may be an impostor?" he added jestingly.
 She laughed. as he had meant that she should. 'I know nothing of in vestments," she said. but I do know that you are honest"
 T thank you for knowing that" he said simply. Frankly, any cash put Into my project would only be loan not gift. And, eventually, it would prove to be an excellent in- vestment. But I cannot expect peo- pie to believe that now-when I can not prove that my plans will be suc- ,essful-as I am sure they will be-"
 "Of course they will be-" she de- ,lared. Anyone hearing you talk must believe in them. And besides. my money will be my own to do with Is I please"
 Then Richard Rankin asked the question that had been in his mind II the evening.
 You are your fathers only heir?"
 His tone was so deferential that he words did not sound impertinent. why, yes--I must be-" she replied. Of eourse-just yet I do not know nything definite. But I do know

 "I sec" Rankin said. But, Miss Scott, let us not talk any more of this kind of thing. It seems as if l were meddling in your affairs. More over, have been disgustingly egotis- t:cal-prattling of what concerns me so deeply that it makes me forgetful of others. Pardon me-"
 In spite of her protests. he care fully steered the conversation into other channels during the remainder of his call. The second question that he longed to ask was whether she were of age. If not-of what good would her money be if 1t was locked away until she attained her ma- jority?
 He did not stay late. That would have been unconventional. Moreover, it might antagonize the vigilant ilousekeeper who. at 10 o'clock, glanced through the rear door of the drawing room, hesltated for an in- stant, then went on upstairs.

TAKE SALTS IF STOMACH ISN'T
 ACTING RIGHT
Says Indigestion Results from an Excess of Hydrochloric
 Acid

Undigested food delayed in the stomach decays, or rather ferments, the same as food left in the open air, says a noted authority. He also tells us that Indigestion is caused by Hyperacidity meaning there Is an excess of hydroehloric acid in the stomach which prevents Complete di- gestion and starts food fermentation. Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage sours in can, forming acrid fluids and gases which infiate the stomach like a toy balloon. Tnen we feel heavy, lumpy misery in the chest; we belch have heartburn, flatulence, water brash or nausea.
 He tells us to lay aside all di gestiye aids and instead get from any pharmacy four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a drink it while it is effervescing, and furthermore, to continue this for a week. While relief often follows the first dose, it is important to help neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-making mass, start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus pro- mote free flow of pure digestive juices.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, and is made from the acid of grapes, and lemon juice, combined with lithia and sodium phosphate. This harm less salts is used for many stomach disorders with excellent results.
