Clues to Character
By J. o. ARERNETHY.
Lofty Ideals.

How often do you meet man with
whom you would like to be on friendly
terms for business or social reasons,
and yet you do not seem to impress
him? You try to put your best foot
forward and talk Of the things that
YOU think might interest him and yet
he seems bored. In other words, you
misjudge him.
The features of every person reveal
much Of his character. You may be
certain that If a person has fine tex
tured skin. fine hair and lustrous eyes
he not only thinks fine thoughts. but
he will have lofty ideals and ambi
tions. Do not tell him vulgar jokes
for the fine-haired. fine-skinned. lus
trous-eyed Individual abhors such Ian
guage.
His thought processes are in refined
high class lines. He loves music, art
and his whole soul is attuned for the
beautiful things in life. He has a
great appreciation OF the beautiful in
art and literature; sense of propricty
neatness and refinement. The walk
gestures. manners. language and voice
will correspond with these chara cter
istics. He will seek friends whom he
| believes are of an aesthetic tempera
| ment, but he abhors coarse and unre

CHAPTER XVII.
Merton Tries to Explain.

Jean was somewhat surprised the
next afternoon to have Merton Thorns
call on her. He had been angry with
her ever since she had come to the
prom as his guest only TO elope with
Conrad, and had refused 10 allow her
to make any excuses.

opened the door to him. Want 10

Jean hesitated. She was alone in
the house. as Mrs. Morgan had gone
out to make a call. It was a lovely
Fall day and she longed to so for a
drive. She knew that Conrad would
understand and think nothing of It
But what about Mrs. Morgan? Would
she seize this opportunity to make
trouble?
However. she hesitated for only a
moment. The challenge to her youth
and good spirits was too tempting.

Saving Money.

There's not the slightest doubt In
the world that the habit OF saving ~
a valuable one for everybody. Ana
It's pretty hard to convince the girl
of today that it's more important Tor
her to have a few pennies in the bank
than the stunning new hat for $20
which she can't afford.
We all spend so much time ana
thought on scenic effects these days
that we neglect the bank account,
and, Of course, as you've probably
read in ninety thousand magazines:
newspapers and books. all we wicked
young women live to regret our folly.
Therefore. all rightminded people
preach thrift to the young whenever
they get a chance.
Although they're usually ignored,
sometimes they're taken very seri-
ous'y indeed.
Witness Rosemary. She didn't
know what bank book looked like.
She'd never kept her salary long

tin bank.
But when Roger advised her sol

learned not to fritter away cash
another good thing.
Still she didn't get ahead fast
enough to suit her. SO she began
cutting down on lunch. That was
the first bad idea.
Lunches shouldn't be skimped.
They're important-we should eat all
we want to at lunch time. However,
Rosie, in her great economy cam
paign, began to neglect her health.
She watched every penny. got a
sick headache when she couldn't ac-
count for 2 cents.
Roger was SO proud OF her when
she showed him the little bank book
with its increasing board.
She was cutting down in all direc-
tons and feeling awfully proud of her
self, when her old friend Bessie
startled, shocked and amazed her one
day by calling her "stingy."
BESSIE was laughing good naturedly
when she fred this shot, but Rose
mary was furious. How can you
say that" she fairly Kissed, Just be-
cause I'm being sensible, you call me
stingy. You're too narrow-minded 10

Then Bessie told her lot Of

She had forgotten all the generous
little acts she'd been wanting TO per
form for other people-the flowers
she'd always taken 10 her mother on
paw day-the toys she'd distributed
among the children who lived next
door-the lunches she'd paid Tor girls
who couldn't afford to eat enough.
Automatically she'd cut all that out
and the change was beginning 10
show in her character.
The open handed. loving Rosemary
was vanishing. and in her place was
coming a careful. shrewd-eyed. rather
selfish little business woman.
Watch out that your economy

Your Baby and Mime
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

This department is in receipt OF a
clipping WHICH I am printing:
The French Chamber of Deputies
was engaged in the defense OF the IN
fants of France from the alleged per-
nicious effects of rubber nipples.
Tho Deputies voted to abolish rub
Der nipples throughout France ana

Pinard declared the use of the rupber
nipples exposed the babies or France
to dangers ranging from stifing 10
poisoning,
The reader who sent in this clip

dangers of the use OF rubber nipples
and what other kinds can be USED.
The article bewilders me. for II
there are other nipples than the ones

1t is quite possible that the nipple re-

that the use of such contrivance TO

baby is a menace and danger to the
child. IT is one of the causes of over

The mother who would use pacif1er,
instead of seeking out the reason for
her infants irritableness. would be
exactly the same person TO whom a
little dirt more or less would be OF
little consequence. Her imagination
would not be vivid enough to see the
millions of germs which might be
transferred from the dirty street by
means of wet nipple. The French
Deputies may have teh nipple in mind
which was at one time in use. but has
long since been discontinued, and that
is the one with a. long glass stem lead
ing from the nipple TO the bottle. The
impossibiitv Of keeping such nipple
clean and free from the danger of in
fecting the child was the immediate
cause for it's falling into disrepute.
The wide -mouthed nipples or ones
which can he easily turned inside out
are the only styles which should be
used.
But it is probable that the pacifier
was the nipple under discussion.

His elopement with Miss Farmer
was revealed yesterday in dispatches
from Dothan, where he had been well
received and where he had made a
favorable impression as young Pres
byterian divine.
Miss Farmer met him while she was
student at Peabody College in Nash
vile, and the pair went to jefferson
vile, Ind, where some sort of mar
riage ceremony was gone through.
Dothan people were convinced that
Miss Farmer thought the ceremony
legal, as, in her home town, she was
known as a quiet and sensible girl.
Her father, c. B. Farmer, a whole
sale grocery man. became suspicious
of Cobb for some unaccounted rea-
son after the couple went to Dothan,
and began making inquiries. He
asked Cobb to leave the city until
the matter was settled. Cobb ac-
quiesced and left Immediately. Sub
sequently Mr.. Farmer could find no
record of such a marriage having
been performed in the Indiana city.
1t now is believed they were ''duped"
by some one posing as a magistrate
for the fee he got out of the cere-
mony.
The marriage of Cobb and Miss
Hollingsworth was discovered TO have

withdrawn when it was learned that
he had not been legally married to
