Loves Reawakening The Story of Wife's Triumph Over Jealousy
 By ADELE GARRISON

And l suppose you're the goat who is going 10 hunt the house for her" Mother Graham went on with cringly "Wcll my advice to you is to initiate the darky who looked for work and prayed he wouldn't find il. Just be blind in your near eve when you See house you think shed lik" and write her you cant find any, Why Christmas would just be ruined with those two men around"
 "But they're not going to be around" l said, and went on to tell her of the business trips which would keep Samuel Brixton and his half-brother away from home dur ing the Christmas holidays,
 "Busincss trips" Dickys mother repeated scornfully, I'll bet their kind of business wouldn't bear look ing into. But that makes differ. once. l don't mind Mrs. Brixton and her children were real well be haved, l thought. But what brings them out to Long Island? thought they lived in Cleveland.
 4 Dolcful Prophecy
 "ThoY're just moving Town to New York for four years at least" '" l explained, and my mother-in- law bent forward and put the tips of her fingers together with a gesture of resigned disapproval.
 Well, all I hope is that none Of you regret that move the way [ fear you will" she said, and if l had not secretly shared the premoni tion she had voiced l would have smiled at the doeful prophecy which I had heard many times be- fore, only applied to different prof ects. My mother-in-law surely was Casaandra in one of her previous incarnations.
 T know I said in docilc assent, but I really don't know what to do about getting Mrs. Brixton q house for the holidays. Lillian wishes me to find one if I can"
 she would My mother-in-law tone vas whitening, How d woman as brilliant as she is can be such a softly ] don't know. But that doesn't help matters any. For my part, l don't see how you can get out of it. seeing that tho woman and her children will be alone at Christ mas time. But there's only one house near here that would do, and that's The Larches."
 "Oh, that would be just the thing" l said enthusiastically, try ing to convey by my manner that the idea of The Larches had not entered my brain until she had ut tered the name. Mother, couldn't you come with me now and sec the agent? I'll run down and tell Katie to have lunch ready when we come back, and that will give us time not only 10 Sec the agent, but 10 lool; over the housr."

YOUR HEALTH
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of fhe American Medical Association and of Fly
 ppja the Health Mapayine


 When. school opens in the fall the child begins a new year of appli- cation to the requirement Of knoWl- edge. Some children will enter on their work with bodies that are phy- sically fit. and with minds free from the distraction of attention caused by weakness of vision, difficulty of hearing, or aching teeth.
 The great campaign that has been carried on during the last ten years for the prevention of decay in teeth has already worked marvellous results Many mothers know the i'm portanCe of a good diet for the growth of teeth and for their proper maintenance. The diet must have plenty of bone building substances such as calcium anI phosphorus, it must have sufficient amounts of vitamin A and D particularly, and it must have proteins, carbohydrates and fats Tn due proportions
 Moreover. prospective mothers are | being taught everywhere that they must eat the proper foods or the babies when born will not have the proper materials in their bodies for developing sound teeth. The mother, too, must have vitamin D when she is nursing the infant and also dur ing the time previous to ts birth.
 Of course the only way to find out the condition of the Child's teeth is to take 1t to q competent dentist who will make an inSpec- 1 ton as to the cavities that are pres cnt, the position of the teeth in the Chld's mouth, the cleanliness of the teeth, and all of the other factors ] that are associated with dental de- cay Nature does not repair cavities in teeth when they are present and the dentist must clean out the cavi- ity, removing the dead and broken down portions, removing debris and bacteria, and filling up 'hc cavity with cement or other material
 As Dr C. N. Johnson emphasizes again, the development Of the fret | permanent molar tooth between tn" fifth and seventh years Of life is of 1 the rrcatcHt importance for the ap- ! pcarancc of the face and mouth. ! for the effectiveness Of the jaws in | chewing, and for the position of | the rest of the teeth, The first ! permanent molar comes in just
 after the baby teeth and the mol@rs
 act as tn" chief support Of the jaws
 during the period between the loss
 of the temporary teeth and the
 growth to full length of the rest Of the permanent teeth.
 | Watch the child's teeth mont h ; by month as they develop up to the age of ten or twelve years and yOu will save q great deal of money in their care and correction after
 that age.

because of modern conditions, de- prive them. At camps they cook, shop, budget and really learn to run q house. During the year they learn bird life and flowers, they compete in outdoor sports such as archery, bicycling, swimming, sail ing, tennis, riding and pitching camp. They have asked their lead CTS for and received classes in jour- nalism, typewriting, dancing, art, bugling, current events and a va ricty of other things. The whole stress is on having the girls like what is good for them and likely to develop interesting, enthusiastic, homc-loving women who will be genuine asset to any nation.
 The development program is Co extend the work, give many new communities Scout leaders, and af- ford ncw\opportuniticS for American young girls to spend their lciSur" wisely and profItably. The whole purpose of the organization IS summed mp in the philosophy 1t teaches it's girls, We owe, rather than own, our surplus energy. It should be spent constructively. For that way we enjoy life, for we get out of it what we put into it."

 Sit down." my mother-in-laW said graciOusly as We came into her room, and I saw that my appeal for her advice had been the one thing necessary to put her into royal good humor. Now what is it you wish to ask me about"
 I had considered and discarded a half dozen topics during my walk subterfuge I had used to keep her from having a disciplinary session with Katie. Now in desperation brought out the one topic which had meant to keep from her as long as possible, for I knew her preju- dices But Of one thing l was cer- tain--it would effectually take her mind from Katie.

BEAUTY CHATS BY EDNA KENT FORBES

Why will SOME women let their eye
brows grow all over their foreheads? l
know one very charming young girl
whose appearance was ruined by thick
black eyebrows, which made untidy
dark SmudgeS over her eyes. She
looked heavy and sullen. And she
wasn't sIllen a bit! But her eyebrows
grew we'll down over the lids, and all
but joined up above her nose and no
one could look cheerful and animated
who carried such a perpetual dark
frown across her forehead
Fortunately, a friend took her to q
good beauty shOp-where the hairs that
grew below a neat eyebrow line we're
quite psinlessly plucked out. The ef-
feet was to raise the eyebrows as we'll
as 10 thin them into fairly fine line.
This set off her large dark eyes, which
had neen quite overShadoWed by the
brows. IT gave lightness to her face,
too, the sullenness, the apparent frown
had all gone. OF course she had TO
keep them thinned herself-but this is
not hard.
Do your eyebrows need tidying? Re-
member, any one can have beautiful eye
brows. Thin ones can be grown by
using hair tonic on them. applied with
a wisp of cotton wool round an orange
wood Stlck---this so the tonic does not
spread and encourage hair TO grow ex-
cept along the ideal thin arches of the
perfect eyebrows. Very fair ones can
be darkened by using castor oil as a
tonic. And very heavy eyebrows can be
plucked.
You must rub a little cold cream on

the skin first, for this makes pulling
out the hairs painless. Then take a
good pair of tweezers (pay so cents at
least for them and pull out all the
hairs that grow above and below
nicely SNAPPED arch Most should come
out from below, since the higher the
eyebrow the prettier the expression of
the face. II you give a quick jerk you
really VIII not feel the hair coming out.
Most OF these hairs will grow in again
you must pull them out once every
week or two; you must also go over the
skin after pulling them out with cotton
dipped in peroxide to make the places
antiseptic and to bleach the new hairs

Agnes words and her subsequent in
f1uence led Charles to forsske his volup-
tuous Incidence. He became a man of
valor and finally reclaimed France from
the English.
Agnes did more than arouse him to
sense of his duties. 1t was she who
induced Jacques Occur, a rich merchant
OF Bourges. to reform the finances Of
France and obtain the money where
with Charles could wage war against the
scions of the French nobility to bring
their arms to the Kings support.
She was not without enemies. Her
immoral relationship to the King and
her great eXtravagance--She lived and
comported herself with regal magnifi-
cence-caused her to be called the
new Herodias" by some and the beast
OF the Apocalypse" by others.
The Dauphin, later Louis XIV. hated
her because his mother was sighted by
the King in his preference for the
mistress. He one day actually struck
Agnes.
She retired from court and ceased TO
interfere in public matters. She died
in 1449, still young woman. It was
suspected that she had been poisoned,
but this was never proved.

It was given to the American Society
for Phychical Research.
DR.. Morgan's wife died more than 90
years ago, after having participated.
through rare qualities of mind and
heart, in the building of her husbands
career
When 1t was known that she was
dying, DR.. Morgan, who. even at that
period was inclined to believe in the
possibility of spirit communica ton, said
to her: You know what believe as
to the communication between spirits.
Will you Gomez"
To which. he told the A. s. p r.,
she replied: Il will, If the Good Father
will let me-"
Eleven months after Mrs. Morgan had
passed away, the doctor said, he had not
even had a dream about the one he
had loved better than his soul"
In view of his belief he could not

others condition" and when, during a
separation. she was III or distressed he
almost always knew it," Moreover, she
had left him with four children. and
1t seemed that this added bond should
have helped to bring her into communi-

In April of the year after her death
ii months had passed-Dr. Morgan was
in Philadelphia in connection with his
work He had gone to his hotel and
retired for the night
Lying with his eyes closed, but not
asleep. he thought of his departed wife.
/ This wasn't unusual. In fact, she was

Thus he became aware, he said, that
the room was filled with Mrs. Morgan S
presence. The impression dawned on
him gradually, but finally assumed such
strength that he felt certain he saw
her shadowy form by his bed.
He asked Darling, why have you
