It is well worth while to can cherries for winter use, for there are many delicious ways to use them aside fom the proverbial pie Frozen desserts, hot buildings and pudding sauces are excellent made with the canned fruit.
 Sour cherries are usually lik ed for canning. for pies and for pre- serving. When the fruit is wanted especially as a sauce" or in a fruit cup or salad. large, sweet cher ies are desirable. These cherries are very firm-heshed and much less juicy than the sour varieties.
 In selecting fruit for table use or canning, there are a few points to keep In mind. Firm feshed fruit with a small pit keep it shape we'll when canned and there is less waste from stoning. Large. perfectly shaped fruit should be chosen. Cher ries which are developed on one side only are apt to be wormy and of inferior flavor. Overripeness mus, be looked for as well as brown rot. which is often had to detect. This brown rot often attacks the fruit first around the pit and spreads rapidly if the cherries are kept in warm place. A low temperature cheeks the decay, keeps the fruit firm and retards ripening. If the fruit Is to be kept for several days, put it in 6 cool dry place.
 The ever-present wormy cherries cannot always be discovered in tho market, but they can easily bt picked out at home. When wash. ing the fruit you will find that wormy cherries float in water and sound ones do not.
 Fresh cherry shortcake is delicious It is made just like strawberry shortcake, using baking powder biscuit dough and substituting sugar ed cherries for strawberries.
 Fitted cherries dredged with su- gar and thoroughly chilled make a simple and most refreshing des- sert.
 Cherry salad uses the juice ot red cherries to make a sparkling gelatine and adds pitted white sweet

There was only horror in the -si- lence that followed the shot. But every eye turned to the door from from which 1t had come. It had not been fired in the room. As Sue lifted her face she felt Jacks arms, strong, protecting, ten- der, close around her. It wasn't Jack who. had Been sh6t! A great en- gulffng wave Of thankfulness swept over her. If 1t had been. But there was no time to think of it now. Jack was safe! And Corrinne. Yes. Cor rinne was all right too clinging tightly to Harry in a strange, puzzled fear. She had come in immediately after the shot.
 The detectives had started into the hall with Harry.
 One Of them, perhaps. Maybe Clifford had tried to get away and someone had shot. Maybe no one was hurt at all, Sue reasoned. The shot had been farce. But she knew instinctively that it had not been. She leaned forward and saw mans body on the floor in the room beyond. SpraWled help lessly. A small pool of blood was growing wider.
 Harry started toward the body. A detective put up his hand.
 Just a minute! Everybody stay exactly where you were, please! No moves at all!'
 The people fell back, losing little of their stiff tenseness.
 Somebody fired that shot and we have to know who 1t Was. It came from the rear. It wasn't Clifford Becker, he didn't shoot. himself"
 The other two men had been ex- amining the body. one of them ran to tie telephone.
 But 1t wasn't a doctor he called. It was the coroner and then the sheriff.
 Sarah appeared in the door.
 He's not not dead? she asked
 "A final pass out" the man ans wered.
 And lie didn't shoot hiihself?" Mabel whispered.
 Hardly. He. was afraid. cow ard. He wouldn't have."
 Mabel moved over to the body. The detective didn't stop her. He watched her closely. She stopped and put one hand over the Spot where the blood had been coming before the detectives eased the body into a more comfortable position.
 Women are .... fools!" She said 1t duly, drably. "Foolst All of us." She seemed to forget that the others

oYoUR CHILDREN.

Nearly all children develop bad habits of some sort. Various things cause them; sometimes 1t is nervous unhappiness, often natural curiosity, Frequently children unconsoiously copy other members of the family, Physical weakness or discomfort are often to blame also.
 But i think 1t is just too bad to make the child feel criminal for what we like to call bad habit" To try to shame little boy or girl out of habit is wrong method. To appeal to his pride IS better. I wish we could get over our bar baric custom of "shaming'' children knew the sinister and far-reaching results of such discipline on the young mind, they would agree with me.
 It breaks down morale instead of building it up; for a child so handled first loses directness and honesty, and learns the meaning of cunning at a age when he should be growing in the sun of openess and truth. Sec ond, he loses that precious thing, re- spect for himself.
 May Have Serious Effect
 DO you knOW ludt ShdIiC oAOCh or discovery in an overt or wrong scolding on your part, may cause mental scar that leads to nervous breakdown in later life?
 The best thing to do is to act nat urally, no matter how upset you are. The child is nervously alert and is tuned to every gesture, every change in your voice. Naturally he will eX- agserate anything you do or say. His agony of mind is his own pun ishment if you are of the type who wishes him that.
 Then go off by yourself and think it over. Why did Jimmy behave so? Is he copying Someone; is he moved by natural curiosity; or is he un- happy and seeking escape by thrills?
 If the habit is a physical one that repeats itself, such as eneuresis, cer- tainly scolding and whipping has been abandoned for that long ago.
 Look for the Reason
 Whatever the cause, for there is cause for every bad habit. try to figure out the cause. And then use your .cleverness and tact. Don't hurt the flowers. but seek to disentangle the weed from the root by some subtle means known to yourself.
 If it is something that needs ex- plaining, be frank and explain 1t. A warning is all right if not done as @ threat. If 1t Is someone older that he is initiating, go after the other person. If he is nervous. maladjust- ed, or unhappy, see If conditions can be improved.
 Remove the cause and you re- move the habit. but in the mean- time don't set the habit by calling attention to it constantly. And use care that the child does not turn crafty in his attempts to hide his behavior.

listened. You played me dirt, didn't you, Clifford? Pretty rotten of you. But, oh hang 1t all, I had to fall in love with you. You!" And now her voice was warmer and it throbbed little. You! A low-down toward! Well, you got what you deserved. Got plenty of it! Shot up with lead!"
 She came strolling back into the room, scarcely noticing the others
 What made you shot him?" the detective asked her suddenly.
 "I shoot. him? Her voice jump ed in it's surprise. "Oh, good grief. you don't think I'd run the risk, do you? didn't do it."
 "Sure?" One word. As hard and metallic as the bullet that had killed Clifford Becker.

in disgust. If you're so sick it's funny you wouldn't have a doctor. I don't believe there's anything the matter with you"
 Irene was incensed because she'd had to wash dishes for two days and her father had dared to insist that she help at the store. After an hour of her presence there he had sent her home, glad to be rid of her. For once Beryrs mother took her part. well, she must be sick when she can't eat," she said. "Beryrs all ways had a healthy appetite and she's no call to reduce"
 She's stalling," Irene sneered
 For heavens sake, stop talking about mel" Beryl exclaimed. Irene was hitting too near the mark for comfort. Not that she was exactly stalling-but she was avaiding over eating without proper exercise.
 Yes, let's talk about something pleasant" Irene agreed. T hear they've had a revolution in South America"
 And so it went until Beryl left for New York. She told her mother she felt better and would run over to the store for little while. That was precisely what she did but there she told her stepfather that she was go- ing to the city.
 I'm taking a day off for some York" she said, but please don't say anything to Mother or Irene if you can help it."
 She often lunched at the store while 1t was her fathers custom to go home for something hot. Beryl hoped her mother would take for granted that she was at the store for the day and not question MT. Everett about 1t.
 From the store she walked to the local railroad station carrying her best pair of shoes-which she had hidden in the store beforehand---to change at the station. The station mistress was an old friend. She would look after the much -scuffed every day sandals until Beryl re- turned.
 That solved the shoe problem but Beryl was forced to go to town in her country clothes. However, she looked attractive. She was slim and tall--taller at any rate than Irene and her skin looked as though she put it on new every morning. Her gray eyes were difficult of descrip- tion. Sometimes they were like a sunny day at sea-a blend of sea and sky. clear and sparkling with emotion--so that one couldn't say just what shade they were. Her hair was not in itself a crowning glory but it smelled faintly of verbena and Beryl had a style of dressing it that was distinctive. In color it was just plain dark brown.
 Beryl was rarely ever immaculate as to costume. She was too active and self-forgetful to look for long as though she had just stepped from a fashion plate. But she was fas- tidious about frequent changes. When she left the house in a fresh- ly laundered gray linen skirt. a matching gray sweater, with dainty lingerie cuffs and collar. no one thought it an out of the ordinary outfit for the store. With gray stock- ings, white hat and shoes, she was really we'll dressed.
 Anyway. whether it was what she would have selected to wear if she'd had a wider choice, she soon for got about her appearance and lost herself in day dreaming.
 Suppose some day she became fa- nous and rich and Tommy should need money. a lot of money. =.

sprang from an inferiority complex? :? Well, she wasn't inferior! And she wasn't going to be scared into fall ure. If she had talent she would demonstrate 1t this afternoon. 
 There is no doubt that the will to succeed eased the strain for her but 1t was the actual possession of an unusual talent that won her sin cere parise from those who listened In on her second voice test. And MT. Gaylord, whose opinion meant most, was most enthusiastic over her sing. ing.
 No one will ever tune her out!" he exclaimed. as highly pleased as though he had found her himself There was even an T dare you to contradict me- note in his voice which brought subtle smile to Barnhoff's lips.
 And then Beryl was offered con- tract that dazzled her. Relatively it wasn't dazzling--it just dazzled Beryl, who'd never had mores than pin money in all her life.
 She signed and put the paper away in her gray bag as carefully as though it were tube of radium she was taking home.
 Home! Now she could tell them. Now she could take her revenge. And she wasn't bit ashamed of the pleasure the prospect afforded her.
 She wasn't ashamed. but before she got home she thought of some thing that brought her out of the clouds and robbed her big moment of its highliEhts.

After the bedspread was finished Judith and Mrs Lacey started work on the dressing table. It was an unpainted one in kidney shape. First the frame was enameled or lacquer ed in old ivory, The drawer was lacquered in pink the same shade as the deepest pink in the bed spread. The top was old ivory which in turn was covered with the palest shade of pink organdy. This was tackled on, tucking edges and tacks on under side of top. A plate glass top was laid on this after the table was finished. Next a sparsely gathered skirt of ivory sateen was tackled on sides and this divided In front to allow arms to swing open. It reached aound the back.
 Now three founces were shirred and were tackled in place. The longest and bottom one was of the deepest shade of organdy, the mia-

You may have an angelic dlsposi- ltion, and be the sweetest thing in the world. But if you have frowfi Tor sduift lines between your eyes, Iyou'li have a hard time making strangers believe it! xs,s, {. These mean little furrows detract from a serenity that should go naturally with beauty.
 Even if you smile enough to suc- ceed in dispelling the idea that you are perpetually cross, they make you look older. .
 Of course the best way to get rid of them is to prevent them. If you already have them, such advice is like locking the stable after the horse has been stolen.
 May Need Rest
 But, if bad eyes cause them, glasses or exercises will certainly smooth out your forehead and spe- cial massage will carry along the good work.
 If it is a matter of nervous strain from fatigue. proper rest and re- taxation is the best thing in the world you can do for your frown.
 Eyes often are the big reason you frowh. Your eyes may be per  should wear brimmed hats, if this is so, and forego the beret type. You should wear visors when you play tennis; you might even wear one when you read, for you will find bright lights outdoors or in is apt to strain your eyes that are all ready weak.
 First of all, then, look to your eyes. Do all you can for them in the way of being tested for glasses.
 Second, begin a rigorous massage treatment with firm resolve to get rid of those deep furrows that keep folks from knowing how nice you are:
 Rubbing Wrinkles Away
 1. Place both thumbs firmly against the cheekbones, for sup port.
 2. Begin a gentle upward pressing message with the first finger of each hand from the bridge of the nose up between your eyebrows to your forehead. Dip these fingers into cream before you begin. Keep them moistened with a nourishiny cream.
 2. After warming up the frown. take the first two fingers of each hand, run them up the bridge of the nose and draw them firmly out along the eyebrows This stretches the ridges out to where they should be. Do this ten times or more.
 4. Before going to bed, smooth out your frown and then put court plaster over it while you hold II It actually helps!
