Their Parting

He hated her now for the
change which had removed her
from his thought of her.
Hated himself for noticing the
gulf.
His embarrassment transmit
ted itself to. the girl. She
tried to diSsemble by keeping
up a running stream of light
comment to which he returned
grunts.
At the door Of the hotel she
turned with secret relief and
held out her hand.
Its been so good to see you
again, Nell"
He ignored that kind little
hand. His black eyes burned
with wretched anger. In a
mighty effort to break through
the wall which separated them
he burst into rough speech.
"You don't mean that, Ar.
deth. You've hated seeing me.
That's what they've done to
you. Made you ashamed Of
the people you used to know.
You're ashamed because you
loved me once. Well-you did.
You used to like to have me
kiss you-"
His eyes blazed in accusa-
ton, his dark face was flushed.
In his own bewildered fashion,
Neil was suffering.

A Thrilling Serial By the
Author of Marianne

A BLEAK moment when Ken'S
"A eyes clung to her own. A
moment when the little shop
seemed to race TO 8 great dis
tance. When the sound of
voices, the cIatter of tea cups
from the Smokerie appeared to
die, so that she and Ken faced
each other across a blank grey
ness which held neither time
nor reality.
Sharp dismay in the girls
heart. Oh, he was so changed!
It was not so much that he
looked older. as that something
Of youth was gone.
The compelling Ken Of that
golden Sunday on the marshes
the laughing Ken who had
dragged her away from Tom on
the toboggan-little Of them
left in the man who now came
slowly into the shop.
Yet the brilliant Ken Of those
days never dragged on her
heart strings as the sight Of
him dragged now. Ardeth felt
her face 60 cold. Her hand
moved in a little flutter to her
throat.

A Changed Girl

This was not the eager young
girl he had waylaid in the hall
of the flat and mauled in his
young lovemaking. Something
about her which abashed him.
Even her voice was changed.
Speaking with Mary Eastwood
had given depth to it, even as
the hours of lonely reading had
given depth to her mind. It
was more than the quiet dis
tinction of her Clothes quail
ity which Neil could describe
to himself only as "claSs." It
was something deeper. Some
integral quality-though he did
not put it thus to himself.
He knew bewildered resent
ment. Always, in the back
of his mind had been the
thought of Ardeth-Ardeth who
would come back to him when
she'd got this society rot" out
Of her head.

THE BEAUTY
BOX
BY Helen FOllett-

The mouth should be watched
and guarded. not only for what
it has to say, but how it looks.
The beauty Of the mouth de-
pends much upon the express
sion. It should curl up at the
corners a bit. The lips should
be kept close to the teeth, other
wise they will become thick and
flaccid. The self-pitying express
sion produces what is known as
"the weak mouth" which in
time becomes fixed and can't
be changed.
For the woman who is af-
flicted with a growth of super
fluous hair upon her face the
whole world is a mess; she
feels that her social life is
torn into ShredS. The growth
can be removed by means of
the electric needle. Properly
done, the removal is perma.
nent and no scars remain.
There is no reason to believe
that the electricity inspires
new, stronger output of facial
spinach.
Only the woman who is in
perfect health can relax utterly
and completely. The high
strung, nervous fuss-hudget
knows nothing about relaxation
and she is the one who needs
it most. Let her flop down On
her bed and go limp. Muscles
inert. Eyes closed. That's
right. But her mind must alst
60 limp. AS long as the olE
brain is buzzing about one thina
or another the nervous system
is anything but tranquil. She
can master that problem by
sending her thoughts in pleasant
channels, thinking Of dark for
ests, Of long winding roads, OF
country meadows and quiet
places. In these hoity,tolty,
rushing days complete relaxa-
tion is the finest kind Of .
pickup treatraent.

JOURNEYS IN
BRIEF
AS we wander the streets OF

AS we wander the streets Of
"A Cracow. we are struck by
a rather curious group which
we encounter. They are the
Jews. The men particularly
are interesting. They are thin
and colorleSS and there is q
sort Of wistful sadness in their
mien.
Almost all of them have long
boards. High earletS which
hang down beneath their hats
either the high plush hats
or the little black caps. But
no matter which it may be,
it is black boots and halatS,
or long coats buttpned tight
under the chin and fitting
tightly to the waist, complete
the garb.
No matter what the weather
may be-the heat Of summer
even-this costume remains un-
changed.
These Jewish men win be
seen throughout the city. They
wander along with hands clasped
behind them or tucked into the
sleeves of their halats. They
seem meditative, sad. Yet they
should not be, for Poland. and
Cracow particularly, is almost
n Jewish retreat, So.
Casimir the Great, one Of po-
lands most famous and enlight-
ened rulers, was enamored Of q
beautiful JeweSs and took COM
passion on her nomadic race,
He threw open the gates Of Po-
land and welcomed them, when
all other nations were treating
them with diSdain. His liberal
ism was centuries ahead Of his
time.
Due in a great measure to
CaSimir's attitude toward him.
the Jew has progressed far in
Poland. In the historic old Uni
versity Of Cracow some of these
Jews hold professorships. and
justifiably so, for their life Of
self-impoSed isolation has tend
ed to make them scholarly to
an extreme.

Her Impression

He came over to the glass
case. Faced her and she gained
the impression that he put q
tight leash on his mind to
keep from going to pieces.
"I guess if the dead come
back, it's like this" He tried
to smile and the result hurt her.
"Oh, no =" Her voice was
bleak. "Why why
He answered the unspoken
question. ITO take Cecile home.
You mustn't think I came on
purpose. You mustn't think
that, Ardeth. I had to talk to
myself to get here. But she
asked-and I couldn't refuse
without-without-"
She finished the thought in
her mind. Refusal to call for
her would have led to a scene
with Cecile. A scene briStling
with Sneers at Ardeth. Sneers
which would have hurt him.
Ken's eyes were drinking her
in as a thirsty man would gulp
water. The dear naturalness Of
her. The warm human quality.
The tender curve to the soft
lips. The sweet frankness Of
her gaze After months Of
Cecile's glittering artificiality.
the man found them doubly
dear.
A wave Of yearning love went
ever his heart. He found him

would fly away. "Oh =" get

where the bright hair brushed

MRS. BEECKMAN
ON CORRECT
MANNERS
DEAR MRS. BEEcKMAN:

DEAR Mrs. bEECAMAN
When being introduced to q
young man, is it right to say,
PLEASED to meet you" or Glad
to know your" II not, what is
proper? D. D. :
l see that you are a new
conner to my column. D. D., and
I welcome you heartily. for we
must chat with you about many
things that are revealed in
your question. First, / take it
for granted that you are a girl,
and so your question must be
changed to read, When a
young man is being introduced
to me-" since a gentleman is
presented to a lady, not a
lady to gentleman.
Then. too, promise me, most
solemnly, that you will cast
from your vocabulary Pleased
to meet you" and "Glad to
know you," for they are both
terrible, and If we say them
when we acknowledge an intro
duction, we reveal at once that
we don't know what's what.
There is one phrase that can
be used, that should be used,
when we acknowledge an intro
duction, phrase that is always
correct. and that is always used
by people 'tin the know" that
is, "How do you do" It may
seem meaningless to you, you
may not particularly care how
the other person does" but.
nevertheless and notwithStand-
ing. this is still the correct and
polite and well-bred and &C.
cepted thing to say.
am being particularly vigor
GUS about this. because. to me
what we say when we acknowl
edge an introduction is Of the
utmost Importance, since it is
the first impression that the
person being introduced to us
gets of us. And. surely, that is
important in this hurried
world, when first impressions
count for so much. Now. If
you say, after an introduction,
Pleased to meet you-well, the
person being introduced to you
will know. and will know newt
ably, that you haven't paid
enough attention to good form
and good manners. But. if you
say How do you do?" or
How do you do, Mr.. Worthing-
ton," and say 1t with a gracious
and accustomed manner, he or
she will know that you are we'll
bred and careful of your
manners.
DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
When calling on friends (not
close friendS) to express ones
sympathy at the time of a death
in the family, should one walk
in, or should one rap lightly on
the door and wait for the door
keeper to open it? G. G.
We should not walk in unan-
nounced to a home, under these
circumstances especially. II you
are not a close friend Of the fam
lily in mourning. you would SIM
ply leave your card Of sympathy
at the door. Only very close
friends Of the family would be
expected to be admitted to q
home at such a time, and those
only on invitation Of the fam
lily.
Under the circumstances that
you outline-''not close friends"
1t is best to leave your card, or
to send flowers and a note Of
sympathy, or both.

An Awkward Moment

It was so long since she had
even thought of Neil that she
looked at him with secret embar-
rasSment. All resentment had
died-all feeling toward him, in
fact.
Just happened to be pass
ing-caught sight of you"
he explained awkWardly.
An embarrassed little pause
when neither knew what to
say. Neil had fitted his step
to hers-waS walking up the
hill.
Astonishing to have him ap-
pear out of the past like this.
A certain raw force about him.
Had he always been so big?
She eyed him beneath her
lashes, rather disturbed, as
they talked commonplaceS.
They spoke of the Fell
Street flat. The HarriSonS were
going to move. Aunt Stel
had sciatica; she wanted a
place where there were not so
many stairs, Bet had a beau
at laSt-a red-headed shoe
clerk who took her to his lodge
dances. Neil's father had been
arrested in some labor riots
and had very nearly gone to
Jail. Granny Burke was poorly.
The cold this last winter had
bothered her a lot. She missed
Ardeth. On and on, in
Neil's rough voice, that strange
past to which she had once
astonishingly belonged.
All the time the mans eyes
were taking her in, miserably
aware of the change in her.
Change, which Ardeth herself
did not realize.
The Washington times., 1930-04-15
Very Considerate

He gave q little harsh laugh.
'.IIard to believe, isn't it, Ardeth
don't let this keep you from
life. You know what I mean
your own life. Just because
mines wrecked ."
"Oh, no." Her voice was faint.
She began to stroke the long,
black ostrich feathers Of a fan.
well, I was beginning to
think you were never coming,
Ken!" Cecile's high voice sliced
through the air. She stood in
the doorway of the Smokerie,
surveying them through the vio-
let haze Of her perfumed cigar
cite. The pale grey eyes held
The Washington times., 1930-04-15

q bright, malicious smile as they
swept, the other girls face.
This glimpse of Ken made it
harder to bear. If he had de-
liberately hurt her, her pride
would have braced Ardeth. She
could have forced herself to g@
out with Tom-made herself
forget that delirious, happy time.
But to see him unhappy-know-
ing he was yearning for
her
A few nights later, as she
walked up the hill toward her
hotel she heard her name called.
Neil stood beside her.
Neil" Her voice was slightly
incredulouS. Not since that
stormy scene with Aunt Stel had
she seen Neil. He had sunk out
OF sight with that earlier life of
hers which had become dream
like.

girls, I don't believe I was ever
introduced to one in my life.
When I picture myself with a
girl it hands me a laugh. Now,
Miss Fairfax, just what would
you suggest?
HOPELESS.
Why is it that the friend
ship of an agreeable, sef-re-
Specting young man, as the
writer Of this letter undoubted-
" is, so often goes begging?
Is he too self-conSciouS, does
he lack the qualities Of a
mixer" why is it that a young
man whom you know to be en-
tirely creditable is lonely, while
the noisy self-aSSertive type
doesn't want for friends or so
ciety?
Whatever the reason may be,
the fact is unhappily true, as
this letter is only one Of many
such that come to me. The
best way for a diffident young
man to make good, true
friends" is through the wives
and women relatives of his men
friends. They will introduce
him to girls. steer him through
the troubled waters Of early
acquaintance. Women, unless
they are vamps, are glad enough
tn act as social CodmotherS to
nice young men.
Churches, these days, take
account of the difficulties OF
having creditable young people
meet each other in the right
way. There are all sorts Of
organizations in cities - bowl
ing clubs. hiking clubs, singing
clubs, debating societies, all
sorts Of clubs and organiZa-
tions. If a shy young man
will join one of these and be-
come friendly with some con-
genial men, acquaintance with
the nice girls is bound to fol-
low. Our battles with Shyness
and self-diStrust are not always
easy, but If we persist, we're
bound to win in the end.

we both have a crush" on the
