Then old Witch Virgins tiptoed from

to see what she was doing.
Presently the mean old Witch came
tiptoeing out from Raggedy AIMS bed

CHAPTER II

After Manville left me cried for an
hour. Then ! spent two hours in the
attempt to obliterate all traces of tears.

I could not, of course, expect a man to
go around looking and pricing things
as longed to.
After luncheon I wandered into the
tiny den off the living room we had
rather Manville had fixed it up to
suit himself. His old desk he had used
in his mothers house had been brought
on and installed by the window. I idly
pulled out drawer after drawer, closing
each with bang as wondered what
Manville had wanted that old thing for
when he could have had a nice Adam
or some other period desk.
Then l opened a drawer which did
not close at once. Facing me were a
package of letters tied together. The
top one was addressed in woman's
handwriting. l was no longer bored
and anxious for the time to pass.

at the packet / had taken from the
drawer. That / was doing anything
dishonorable never entered my mind.
In all my 10 years at home father and
mother never had hesitated to open and
read each others letters, never had had
a secret from each other. Manville was
my husband. 1t was all right for me to
know the people he correspondent with
thrilled as l thought they might per-
haps be love letters, letters written by
some girl before he knew me. l settled
myself to read them in the same spirit
as should have done had 1 an inter
esting book. The first one ] read left
me white and faint. There was no
name signed, no address, no real ending
or commencement. But all through
closely written pages there breathed
the very spirit and soul Of love, of de-
votion, interspersed with illusions as
to the places they had been together,
their plans for the days to come. 1t

it. l sat staring straight ahead, see

and read it again. AS I read it to the

How My Wife Has Helped Me

Judge Ben Lindsey is the father of
the juvenile court. He has an
international reputation as an authority
upon Juvenile delinquency and his work
is go well known that it needs no
praise, of mine. Yet l should like
to say a word for a man who has done
so much for the younger generation.
No one else in our times seems to have
been able to secure and hold the con-
fidence of youth in such a measure as
he. The fact that wayward boys and
girls knew that Judge Lindsey would
never betray them gave him an un-
usual power for good. Judge Lindsey
is fortunate in having beautiful and
clever wife about whom he writes me.
'.My dear Miss Brainerd
IF il hadn't been for my wife
goodness knows where l would have
been today. She takes excellent
care of me-is sort of guardian
keeper who insists upon my taking
needed rests. She stands between
me and the time and energy MASTERS
of the outside world, and that, if there
Is any one first aid to success, is the
great answer.
''She is a quiet. modest person who
is not given much to talking. Her
tact and positive genius keeps iny
dates straight, leaves me undisturbed,
and conserves my strength for the most
important things 1 have to do.
Ever since our marriage-l2 years
ago-she has been, among other court
work, my secretary. She has relieved
me of so many routine duties.
''She has helped me immensely with
the young girls who come into our
court. They all like her. They
admire her beauty and understanding.
Her youth and lack of severity has a
good influence on them. She wins
their confidence and they tell her all
their troubles.
These young girls who have made
mistakes seem to feel that she will
understand their love of life, which
has too often lured them into mistakes.
1t takes youth to understand youth.
Experience is a wonderful thing but
in gaining the confidence Of young
people youth is a great asset.
''My wife studied interior decorating
and has made my poor home attractive
and beautiful. She herself came
from a life where nothing was denied
her of material comforts and she has
given me more than l ever had in my
life-comfort, understanding and happi
ness in perfectly arranged surround
ings.
Sincerely,
BEN B. LINDSEY"

Ugly cracks in furniture may be
easily filled in with beeswax so that
the marks will hardly show. Slightly
soften the beeswax until it becomes
plisble, then press it firmly into the
cracks and smooth the surface with
a thin knife. Sandpaper the sur
rounding wood and work some dust
into the beeswax. This gives fin
ish to the wood, and when it is var
nished the cracks will have disap-
peared.
When SCOT falls on a carpet or rug
never attempt to sweep it up at once.
Cover it thickly with dry salt. In a
short time you can clean it up with
out leaving a stain.
Fill a small box with lime and
place it on a shelf of damp cup
board. This will keep the air dry
and sweet.
When using a double boiler the
food will cook more quickly if the
water in the outer vessel is sailed in
the proportion of fourth of cup
OF salt to one quart of water.
Moisten with cold water perspira-
ton stains under the arms of a silk
blouse and then cover them with
French chalk. Leave the chalk for
q hours and repeat the process if
the stain is not quite gone.
