mirror of the dressing table. 1t
was not her own reflection of which
she was thinking.

Even little kodak picture would
be something"
There was no picture and Norma
knew it. She rummaged in the
trunk again, brought out an object
and placed it on the dressing table.
1t was a fountain pen Mark had
used and discarded. Not very per-
sonal-still it had been Marks.
In the afternoon she telephoned
Chris Saunders and agreed to meet
her at $50 on a familiar corner.
Norma reached the place first.
She saw Chris, slender and erect,
threading her way through the
maze of traffic. Norma went to
meet her.

The older girl turned her head.
She caught Norma's eye and smiled

ing for his father? When did all
this happen?"
Norma's voice did not betray her.
She managed to keep it almost
steady as she answered. "I'll tell
you about it. Let's go somewhere
where we can talk"
How about the Galley?"
THE Galley'S all right"
The two girls made their way to
the restaurant. When they were
seated at small table against the
wall and had given their orders,
Norma repeated the story of Marks
reconciliation with his father.
She told about the business agree
ment and the trip abroad. Chris
listened seriously; now and then
asked questions.
1t was after they had gone over
the whole affair and there was
pause that Norma said hesitantly:

Norma considered the results Of her
rashness. She was miserable. She
never in the world would have run
away If she had realized it was to
be like thisl
"If I should walk out in the street
and be hit by an automobile, not a
soul in the world whom I care
about would know It'll" Norma told
herself.
She had clipped every bond. BY
simply walking out of her father
in-law's home, she had succeeded in
hiding herself as completely as if
she were in distant city. She was
entirely alone now.
Chris didn't know. They didn't
know at the apartment. She had
not told Bob Farrell how to reach
her.
All that was inconsequer AL. The
terrible thing was that Dy leaving
the Travers home she had cut her
self off from Mark. Less than twen-
ty-four hours he had been gone.
The girls ewes were red-rimmed.
She had scarcely slept during the
night.
Now in the bright daylight the
situation seemed even more fright
ening.
There was nearly 500 in her
purse. Marks boat had not sailed
yet. AT this moment he was some
where in New York. eff only I
could reach him" the girl thought.
oh, why did ] ever let him leave
mel"
CHE knew it was madness to 20
~ on in this fashion. She told
herself over and over it would be
impossible to reach Mark. Even if
there was means, the effort would
be useless. Mark was entitled to
the chance he was so eager for
She could not stand in his way.
"As it Is, may have ruined every
thing!' Norma told herself. What
have done? Oh, what have l
done?"
She could noC eoc the well-cooked
breakfast. Purse in hand, Norma
paid for the meal and lodging and
departed from Hannah Spencer
hall.
On the street corner she bought
a newspaper and opened it to adj
vertlsements of rooms for rent. She
boarded street car and read the
column as she rode. Several of
the addresses looked promising and
these she checked with a pencil.
Fresh air and the bright sunlight
gave her courage. Tackling the
situation made it seem easier.
Norma told herself the thing to do
was to believe firmly that everything
would turn out happily.
An hour and half later she
made the first weeks payment on a
small rear bedroom in a lodging
house that had cleanness and cheap
ness to recommend it,

The sketch at the right is a

flat fur can be used in ways
like this. And here, Russian

Diet and
Health
BY DR.. Logan Clendening

The days are getting shorter.
You probably have made that
remark several times lately. Not
so many weeks ago it was
bright sunshine at 6 o'clock in
the evening, now only skyline.
The sun is leaving our north.
ern hemisphere and going south.
Does it make any difference
to our health? Certainly. Every
living thing-animals as we'll
as plants-needS the sun. Espe.
cially the youngsters.
Sunshine in Winter
What are we going to do
about it? How are we going
to get sun during the dark win
ter days? Well, with the de.
velopment of modern science,
you can take sunshine by
mouth. It can be stored up,
or its effects can, in bottles,
and swallowed like pill. 1t is
worth telling about, and I will
try to explain it in the articles
this week.
Winter is especially hard on
children on account of this lack
of sunshine. The particular dis
ease which results from its alb
sence is rickets. It is an in
sidious disease which requires
months rather than weeks and
days for its development. 1t
shows up completely developed
in the spring, having been
slowly progressing, perhaps un-
noticed, all through the winter.
So the time to begin to think
about preventing it is now-in
the early fall. Plans should be
made to protect the infant all
through the winter.
A Dangerous MaIady
Although ricketS IS insldious
in onset, it is quite as danger
Gus, or more so, than diseases
which are dreaded worse. In
fluenza and infantile paralysis
hit suddenly and wreak their
devastations within a week.
Rickets takes six months.

Chivalry, sentiment, and all the

Men are suffering from emo

to idealize, or to cover with
their illusions.
All of which, if true, is sad.
But, he does not shed one tiny
tear for WOMAN'S emotional
starvation!
Whether she has brought it
on herself or not, woman'S SUI
ferings must be 10 times greater
than mans!
For a man may consume
more CLANS, roast beef, and
potatoes than a Don111> cGn;'
but NO man can consume, feed
on, hunger for, and relish halt
so much EMOTION as tDomGn
does.
A woman simply MUST
emote! The most hard.boiled
flapper MUST have her portion
of sentiment, love and romance!
A woman MUST have beauty
in her life and in love-affairs!
Men would never have stopped
for courtship and romance. If
woman had not demanded it Of
them.
Man would still be grabbing
woman by the hair, knocking
her senSelesS and dragging her
back to his tent, IL woman had
not insisted on his learning q
more subtle and graceful way
Of expressing his love. and

finesse of courtShip and the

To him, love-making is just a
lot Of red-tape through which
he has to go in order to win
the woman he wants. And, one
Of the hardest crosses he has to
bear is woman'S propensity for
deluging him with her emo
tionS.

IF she is banting away all the
beautiful accessories Of love
making, cutting all the sweets
out Of her sentimental diet, it is
SHE who will die Of emotional
starvation! Woman is cheat
