Stocking Reducing Sale of Shoes

While hundreds of thrifty folks have taken advantage of this inn portant event, stocks so great as ours cannot be entirely depleted in one or two days of enthusiastic buying.
 An outstanding feature of this splendid sale is the interesting variety from which your choice may be made.
 We were sorry to lock the doors as the crowds of people could not all get waited on at once, and hope to be able to serve them more prompely.

She would not harm a soul de-
Hberately for anything on earth.
Yet every time she makes a call,
every time she ta1ks to a friend over
the telephone, she leaves a trail Of
petty gossip, sometimes with a bit of
scandal.
She is not malicious; she is merely
unthinking. She has a mania for
being the first to tell a bit of news.
She is just as happy telling good
news as bad; but, good or bad, harm
less or fraught with danger to some
ones reputation, she tells it.
Although she would be the first to
deny a story she knew to be untrue,
she would not hesitate to repeat the
same story if she did not know
definitely whether it was true or not.
Whether the good she does offsets
the harm her unbridled tongue
causes is a question open to debate.
She would be shocked beyond words
to hear that she is considered a
scandal-monger.

Should She Rennarry?

Dear Miss Lee: Here 1 am at two
crossroads, and 1 don't know which way
to turn. I have known a young man five
years. He has b&en very good to me- and
since my husbands death two years ago.
NY husband thought a lot of him, too
He has asked me to marry him. My
parents object and even rave il he calls
me up.
He has few bad habits They happen
to be the same as those my husband had.
Ny husband overcame his and l think
this man will. too.
Would you advise me to go ahead and
marry him, because I think a lot of him
and know he does of me. or would you
turn him down on account of mother and
father? Mamma and dad rave every time
I mention going with anybody. What
O'''' LONESOME AND BLUE.
Don't marry any man thinking
he will get rid of bad habits. He
may, but the chances are not promis-
ing. If a man does not care enough
for girl to reform to win her he
probably would not do so to keep
her.
Your life is your own. Evidently
you still are young. If you should
find a man who you believe would
be to your child the father he needs,
and whom you truly love. do not
think your parents would be justi-
fed in trying to prevent the mar
riage for no reason except that they
object to second marriages.

Now, Bright Eyes, you are too
young to be thinking of marriage,
and it occurs to me that you are
closing the gates to other boy friends
pretty early in life. Unless. of
course, you are having other dates,
too, in which you most assuredly
are having too many dates.
If you are not working or going
to school, you might have three
dates a week without losing your
bright eyes. But they should not all
be with the same boy.

blueprints.
She won success by finding a
need and then filling it.
In her experience as an archi-
tect she heard women say, and
men, too:
Il wish 1 knew what our home
was going to look like"
Or:
IF I knew it was going to look
like that I would have changed il"
So she made models of her pro-
jected houses of blueprints, brown
prints and black line prints. Be
ing to scale, they showed almost
exactly how the house would look.
The prints are made in two
types, the model closed showing
the exterior completely and the
model which can be opened show
ing the floor plans.
Outlines she cuts the sizes of
the pieces of furniture and sets
them in place with pins.
A model is so made that the
roof can be taken off. showing the
upper floor plans, and when the
ceiling is@aken out the lower floor
is on view.

Two Extremes

Dear Miss Lee: I have been placed in
a queer situation and do not know Just
what to do
woman I considered very good
friend recently repeated some ugly gossip
about me. and caused some trouble with
my husband. I always knew she was
considered a gossip, but thought she
would tell me anything she heard about
me instead Of repeating it. 1t WASH t
true. bu- the damage was done before
She found it out. She said She did not
mean any harm, but that did not help
me much
Last week I broke my leg. I had to
cult work of course, and that makes it
hard for 'us to make both ends meet,
much less pay for nurse tOr me or
any one to take care OF the house. Ny
husband does his best to keep things
straight, but he is not very good at it.
Now this woman has offered to come
over every day and straighten up the
as best she can. l don't know what 10
do I do need help. hut I hate 10 accept
anything from her She always Is doing
things for people but / cannot teci she
never would have repeated gossip about
WORRIED INVALID.
Let her come. She is trying 10
make reparations. She probably
meant no harm. Some women are
born gossips. and it just does not
occur TO them not 10 repeat every
thing they hear.
BE sure when she is around you 70
rebuff any attempts she makes 70
gossip about other people. or you
Will deserve the same criticism you
give her

LETTER FROM SALLY ATHER
TON TO BEATRICE GRIM
SHAW.

Hope you can come early next
week for your visit, dear Bee.
Leslie called me up yesterday to
tell me that she was going 10 cele-
brate her wedding anniversary the
last of next week, and wanted me
10 add my plea to hers, that you
would surely be here for that in
teresting occasion.
Just why any one should want 10
celebrate a wedding anniversary IS
something I cannot fathOm. Any
anniversary is bad enough. but n
wedding anniversary is the worst Of
the bunch. I'd rather have a birth
day party. and Lord knows my
birthdays have been showed into the
discard for quite a few years now.
You would laugh. Bee, if you
could see his Royal Highness. John
Alden Prescott. these days. He's an
entirely different man since his wife
came home. From his actions you
would think that he felt he had
