CHAPTER NNIII.
Flirting.

For the first time in her life, Fay
was learning something about men.
Before this time no man had eVev
paid her serious attention. The few
men who at rare intervals had called
on her had been paralyzed by her shy.
ness. Now all that was changed
She was supposed TO be a dashing
young widow with some experience.
When she went driving with Dick
Preston, he stopped the car on the
road as they were driving back TO the
hotel.
Fay's heart leaped in presentiment
and yet in spite of that fact ~he was
curious. she was wondering just what
would happen and how she would
handle the situation.
She knew, of course. she must not
act shy and afraid. In some clever
manner she must parry Dicks ad-
vances. And so when he leaned to-
ward her and covered her fingers with
his, instead of drawing back quickly
and making an effort to disengage her
hand. she let it remain where 1t was,
just as though it We're the most nat
ural thing in the world.
For time they sat in silence, and
then Dick felt encoura ged to go a step
further. He raised her hand to his
lips and kissed the fingers separately.
1t was then that Fay turned toward
him and said dreamily, DO you like
70 do that?"
Rather" he said abruptly Best
little sport in the world Do YOU
mind?"
''On the contrary. in fact, it's rather
plea SAINT" Fay returned.
Again a silence fell between them.
and Dick said. bit huskily, DO you
know you're adorable?"
Fay sighed little. Yes, I suppose
am. I must be, SO many people
have told me So"
You mean SO many men have told
YOU so?"
"Oh. Dick. don't you think I an at
tractive to women"
Certainly not Dick asserted
promptly. You're much too fascinat-
ing to be liked by women. Before
you're through you'll have every girl
in the place eager and willing to slip
a, dagger into your ribs
That sweet little Elinor Ramsey.
Fay said slowly. Il suppose she'll
hate me for coming out with you to,
night. Are you her particular suitor
Dick? 1t would be too bad to make
her unhappy just because 1 wanted
to know you better"
"Elinor Ramsey Dick fairly
blurted out the words. "Of course
I'm not her particular suitor. Elinor'
a good kid and I like her, but that's
all there is in 1t"
Fay smiled at him dreamily, and his
arm that had been lying along the
back of the seat crept suddenly around
her shoulders. Before he could draw
her closer however, she spoke again
You're not going to kiss ne. are
YOU, Dick?"
Dick was so amazed that for mo
ment he did not speak, and Fay went
on quietly. That might be pleasant
100, but it really wouldn't mean any
thing"
"Oh, I don't know" Dick said i'm
pudently. having recovered himself
somewhat. 1T would mean a great
deal to me-
"Oh, no, it wouldn't. Kissing gets
to be a habit if we aren't careful.
IT suppose you speak from expe-
rience."
well, of course, I can't say that l

Preparing Boxes for Thanksgiving
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

the way they are most liked, and in
examining every nook and corner with
delicacies to tickle the palate Of the
daughter who is away from home, or
the son who Is too far distant to get
mothers cooking often. Now that
Thanksgiving Is approaching. these
goody boxes must soon be in readi-
ness. especially if they have to go far
Thanksgiving Box.
There are certain articles of food
that no Thanksgiving goody box would
be complete without. such for example
as q mince pie or a mince turnover;
cranberry sauce or jelly as preferred
nuts. raisins. fresh fruit. etc. Since
the Thanksgiving bird can scarcely be
ready to share when the box goes on
its way, a small chicken may be
stuffed and roasted and packed in
stead. or at least part of a chicken
may be included. A few slices of home
boiled and baked ham or freshly boiled
tongue Is sure to be relished. What
ever the kind of meat, some should
be sent. 1t supplies a foundation for
the spread.
Relishes, Fruits. Etc.
Homemade pickles or some relish
will add zest, besides the cranberry
IL
there are certain vegetables that may
be included. Celery keeps well. baked
macaroni and cheese or baked rice and
cheese also. Certain fruits such as
choice apples. juicy oranges. fancy
grapes, carefully packed in sawduSt:
dates. figs. etc, give color and beauty
to the unpacked goodies when set out
in array.
Cakes Essential.
No box would be complete without
cakes and cookies, whether it were
Thanksgiving goody box or tuck
box" as the English call II. Such
boxes are prime favoriteS in that coun-
try. A fruit cake makes an excellent
substitute for a plum pudding. This
is getting to be regular Thanksgiv-
ing dessert with us. though it really
belongs to Christmas goodies. 1t one
of these puddings is sent, 1t can be
cooked in baking powder tin and be
ready to reheat. Don't forget the
sauce. a hard sauce can be sent easily.
Hints on Packing.
When packing the box, wrap articles
to be kept moist and fresh in paraffin
paper Use crushed tissue paper or
newspapers lavishly. Either will make
sufficiently soft filling to prevent
breakage Do not let any bottles come
near the edge Of the box, however. A
cake should be boxed and corners
stuffed to keep it secure. before pack
ing in the larger goody box.

Wants.

Wants are the straps by which
men lift themselves to higher planes,
but there are wants. and then wants,
and world of difference between
the extremes Wants lift US above
the level OF the beasts and they can
lower us there again If we permit
them to do so. One has to limit the
wanting lest It limit life itself Self
control is such a hardship upon US
when we want so much to indulge
our wants. But men are men be
cause they can endure hardship and
keep on enduring 1t until 1t is some
thing to smile away. SO the chill
dren must begin early
When they are very little. teach
them TO content themselves with a
few simple things and to learn to
draw enjoyment from the big, simple
things OF life. which, though they
cannot be bought with price. are
the richest OF mans possessions.
What would you take for your power
Of gaining pleasure through the per
fume OF flowers that open their
hearts to the humming bird moths
at evening? And what price for
your privilege of seeing the splendor
of the western sky as the sun drops
over the rim of the earth? What
could repay you for the loss of the
happiness you find in hearing robin
chirp in the Springtime or baby
laugh in it's glee?
Show the little one the beauty in
the world about him and let him
learn to search for 1t and enjoy it
in his leisure time. In the mean
time don't fill his crib with all the
toys you can buy. The confusion
only teaches him to give passing at
tention to the things close to him
and to drop them quickly to take up
the next Don't spread him SO far
and he won't be so thin in his power
to amuse himself and occupy himself
happily. It is not things that he
will need in his Journey through the
world. 1t is power. and things and
the getting of things do not give
power; they put weight on the load.
Power comes from not wanting
things and going about the business

These people certainly have ex.
tremely high ideals and they are eager
to lift others-whether 1t be mentally,
morally or physically.
Sometimes, In his zeal to emulate
the good deeds Of others, he becomes
a hero worshiper. He is drawn to-
ward phuanthropic work or Will par.
ticipate in schemes or propose new
ideas to help the human race.
The moralist has two outstanding
facial features. The forehead is usu.
ally high from the brows TO the top,
and is especially high about the cen.

The upper lip also will be full. thick
