Here is an Irish family name con.
corning whose origin there is some
room for doubt. The question is
whether 1t Is a name Of purely Gaelic
origin or gaelic adaptation Of Dan.
ish word.
While the period Of Danish incur.
sions in England and Ireland was
several centuries prior to the time
when family names began to form in
the former country, it by no means
antedated the widespread use of sur
names in Ireland. though it was prior
to the establishment of surnames by
the law of King Brian Boru.
Cotter appears to be the develop
ment of a Danish word, meaning cot.
tager' or boat builder" word which
is to be found today in the modern
Danish family name of hotter. The
Gaelic form of the name of the clan,
in Mellow. County Cork, which bore
this name was "O'Coiteoir," or more
anciently "Ua-Coiteoir" (the prefixed
90" is a development Of "Ua" and
"Ui'). Earlier Anglicized forms Of the
name were "MacCottyr" and Mac
Coithir, forms somewhat closer to
the Gaelic.
Such q clan or sent name as this
would develop naturally from the sur.
name of some chieftain, whether with
some Danish blood in his veins or not,
who might have been surnamed, ac-
cording to the Danish-inf1uenced dia-
lect of the locality, "the cottager."

chance to sit beside Dean in his low
slung car and be Whirled over the
countryside. Only SO short a time ago
as yesterday, If he had evinced any in
terest in her, she would have been
happy beyond her fondest dreams, but
now it didn't matter. She was no
longer the much-Sought-after Mrs.
Churchill, full of witchery and charm.
Her pride had been torn from her, and
humbled to the ground; she was a pitt
full creature, able to arouse pity in a
man, but no stronger emotion.
1t was impossible, however. to be
abroad on such golden morning and
not respond to the loneliness of 1t all.
After all, Fay was young, and in spite
of her suffering the fresh air blowing
in her face acted like a tonic.
After a. time she turned to Dean and
spoke for the first time since they had
left the hotel.

Hampton?"
IF you put it that way, don't you
think it was worth saving?" he re-
turned evenly.
NO, l don't" Fay said quickly.

TO you because being under an obliga-
ton TO you makes me feel still more
humble. Now you can see what an

CHAPTER LII.
Rescued :

Fay finished her breakfast and left
the dining room conscious of the bat
terry of eyes fixed upon her. She tried
to hold her head high and appear non
chalant, but it was not easy, and as
she gained the lobby she turned
toward the stairway mechanically, her
one thought TO gain the solace of her
own room, where she would pack her
trunk and make ready to leave the
inn
She had almost reached the foot of
the staircase. when some one spoke her
naIr1e. Good morning. Mrs. Churchill"
and she wheeled about. At that mo-
ment there was a look of eNpectant
torture in her amber eyes. 1t was a
look that she might have turned on
tormentor. and when. she found her
self looking up into Dean Hampton's
cool. gray eyes the tears were sud
denly hot against her laSheS.
She stood before him uncertainty,
and as she hesitated Elsie Norris came
out Of the dining room and saw the
little tableau. Fay was not conscious
of 1t, but If she had planned for days
she couldn't have attained a. neater
triumph. AS it was, she saw nothing
but Deans lean, dark, face, his gray
eyes bent thoughtfully upon her, his
stern lips relaxed in An expression that
was almost tender.
A tear forced it's way from under
her laShcS and rolled down her cheek.
Hastily she brushed it away, and at
the same time he leaned toward her
and spoke hurriedy.
Keep d stiff upper lip. Don't let
these people see that YOU are fright
ened by their attitude at this stage of
the game"

provingly. Il have my car outside. /

is handdrawn. except by saving the
brush into cross-sections.
Aside from the wood you will be
interested in the quality Of the
bristles. These should be firm and
enduring. However. no bristles arc
good that aren't firmly fastened In the
brush. The bristles Of the Siberian
boar are considered the best obtain
able. Chinese bristles are found in
the cheaper brushes, while Russia n
bristles are in the better grade. The
real Siberian brtstles are very scarce.
After you've bought your brush
you can easily ruin 1t. no matter what
its quality. Among the don'ts are
these: Don't wash a brush in q
strong alkaline or acid solution: don't
dry 1t in an oven: don't permit 1t to
remain wet longer than necessary;
don't bend the brtstles with your fin.
gers: don't squeeze two brushes TO-
gether. Sunlight is the best purifying
agent for brushes as well as other
things.
Good brushes come fairly high In
price. but they are worth what you
pay, If you make sure of your value.
Your hairbrush should last you a
lifetime. and 1t will If you buy and
use wisely.

bY MINI.

Today we get half of our education
from the popular magazines and the
movies.
We read that q vamp is long. thin
individual with black hair, and the
next evening we see her on the screen
complete with long. black earrings and
a slinky dark dress.
From then on we regard all women of
that type with the deepest suspicion
and If we see them within half a mile
OF our favorite men, we shout for
help.
Also we are most Indifferent to what
the short, blonde girl does or thinks
We pay no attention to the damsel
with the quiet brown eyes and the
rather sober mien. ..r
We complacently ignore girls who
are neither startling nor wicked look
tng-we assure ourselves that we can
take care Of ourselves when there Is
no competition from the real vamps.
And SO, perhaps, when we hear that
Peggy "a rather dumply little soul
with black hair. freckles and a pug
nose) Is going to be on our party, we
say to ourselves: "Only that unattrac-
tive little Andrews girl. She's nothing
to worry about. No use wearing the
best evening dress-the old blue one
will do
Peggy is on hand. looking more at
tracttve than we had supposed she
could. but still looking far from dan
gerous.
We are surprised on reaching the
dance that she seems to have quite
crowd of men swarming about her as
soon as she enters the ballroom. But
we decide that they're probably all
her brothers friends, and are conf
dent that our Jim is perfectly safe for
the evening anyway.
Then we notice with an icy pang
at the heart that Nina Bradley is
among those present-tall she is, and
dark and aristocraucally CARRIED In
electric blue velvet.
We shiver and look at Jim-he
doesn't seem to be particularly in
terested in the siren-but we know
men-we shall watch him.
All that evening we are busy keep
ing an eye on Jim and Nina. Are
they dancing together? Are they per
haps sitting out?
At supper We are dimly conscious
that little Peggy seems to be getting
lot Of attention, but we know she's
not vamp, so we don't attempt TO
outshine her with our wit.
We hear every one laughing at her
lines and we catch admiring COM
menus, Dut IL leaves us cOld-We keep
glancing over our shoulder at the
beautiful Nina.
About two dances after supper we
miss Jim. Also Nina is not in the
room. In a panic, when no one can
see us, we sneak out to the conserva.
tory.
What is that? Jim's voice: Really
I'd like to take you to that next dance
better than anything in the world"
Oh. that cat, Nina.
And then we see Jim's compan Mon
little Peggy. Oh. yes, there are vamps
and vamps. Never make up your
mind that a girl isn't worth compel
ing with until you are sure she's not
attractive to men. Don't decide that
a girl is harmless because of her
eyes, her hair or her clothes.
Always look and act your very
best. Then you're safe.

Helen and Katharine R-There are
some liquid varnishes that give q
glaze to the nails. but the effect is
startling and unnatural. It Is much
better to use a paste and then attain
polish by a generous use of the
buffer. If you prefer a pinkish tint to
your nails. you can have a little car
mine in the paste. Lemon juice is a
harmless nail bleach to use under the
nails II the cleansing with soap and
water Is not sufficient. The paste for
bleaching off white spots on the nails
Is made from pitch and myrrh in
equal parts. Apply this at night and
cover finger tips with finger stalls

the paste next morning by rubbing

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
Inexpensive Play Pen.

Mrs. l.. Z offers this helpful sug-
gestion for play pen.
IF the baby wants to be in the
room with a busy mother she can
keep him nearer her and still out
from under her feet and out Of
danger by putting him in well
padded, large dry goods box. He
can play in the box and if he falls
no cannot hurt himself. When he
Is older he can pull himself up and
walk about"
Answer-The leaflets you asked
for have been sent. The play pen
is always a pet suggestion of mine
Instead of the dry goods box, which
is rather small, the father can bolt
four longer, smooth boards together
in such a way that at night 1t may
be folded up and put out of the way
as easily as an ironing board. Com
forts can be put in the bottom. The
mother must be warned against keep
ing the child in the pen for too long
a time. Never use 1t as a method
Of Furnishing the child. Keep the play
idea in mind always and let him
understand that this Is not a jail but
a place for amuse7 lent and fun and
10 be near mother.
Mrs. l.. R.-Write TO the Children s
Bureau, Department of Labor, Wash
ington, d. c., and inclose 20 cents
for the two excellent books entitled,
Prenatal and Infant Care.
Mrs. T. ]. R.-It seems hardly pos
sible that because you have sinus
trouble 1t would so disastrously affect
the child's gain. A child who has failed
TO gain even an ounce in two and
one-half months is being starved, and
YOU make mistake to continue to
~
stances.
The baby should be put upon
modified milk formula, and consider
ing his age and his very low weight,
this should he done under the super
vision of a doctor who will take per-
sonai charge Of the feeding until the
baby is we'll on the road TO gaining.

Candied Cranberries.

One cup firm. brilliant red cranber-
dies.
One cup sugar.
One cup water.
Wash and dry the cranberries and
prick each in several places with
needle. Boil together the sugar and
water until a little lifted on a spoon
spins thread; if using a thermome-
ter, cook to 230 degrees. Put in the
cranberries and cook gently until the
sirup will jelly when dropped from
the tip OF the spoon. Remove each
berry separately, place on wa1ed
paper to cool and dry. Roll in gran
ulated sugar and use in place Of can
died cherries. The cooking Of the
berries must be done slowly to avoid
breaking them.
How shall you use them? In or
on your fruit salads, as a garnish
for Ice cream, as a decoration for
the Christmas or Washington's birth
day cake, or to add a note Of color
to those boxes Of homemade candy
which you and the children plan to
make for holiday times.
