As Corrinne's voice asked Sue why she was telephoning to Arnold Page, Sues mind started to race franticelly. Jack, too, was at the door. He had heard her call. She had to have a reason.
 But she couldn't tell them that

 "You may as we'll dismiss your taxi, then," suggested Gideon. wen all go together" Again Steyne declined with cool l politeness. Miss Jenks might not be ready immediately, and he knew Miss Grant did not want to lose a moment of the ballet. "You're engaged to Miss Morley, aren't your" was Gideon's next question. He adopted a slightly patronizing air, with which min- gled a smothered hostility that must have been instinctive. "You were away when met Miss Morley again the other day. She didn't remember the previous occasion at all. She has made a remarkable recovery. You must think yourself very lucky, MT Steyne. What a lovely creature she isl"
 II did not know you had met Miss Morley before Mir Gideon" Alan replied with great formality. "Oh, yes--at your little cafe. I was there with Stornaway one night, and he introduced me. Miss Morley was not very complimentary to me. She said was ugly, and called me | Punch"
 He laughed. not entirely without malice. It pleased him to reveal Clarissa to her bethrothed husband in such an impolite light. He dis liked this young man, and resented his reappcarance. The Morley girl was Judy's best friend and house companion, and who knew what bad influence they might not have on her? By "bad" influence Cid con meant, of course, an influence detrimental to his own plans. Steyne looked at him with ob-' vious frigidity.
 q trust you forgave Miss Morley for her rudeness, MT Gideon," he said. Perhaps you did not know at the time that she was not re- sponsible for what she said." "Of course, thought nothing of it," replied the rich man, chuck ling. T was vastly amused. It's only too true. know I'm no Apollo. I admired Miss Morley immensely, and was fascinated by her roman tic story. You must allow me to say how glad I am that 1t is to have a happy ending"
 Thank you very much" replied the young man, with an inward groan.
 Just then Judy ran down to say that Clara was overcome with joy and would be down directly. The chauffeur opened the door of Gid- cons car. Judy gave Alan a smile and disappeared into the luxurious interior. For a moment he saw her bright hair and vivid lips against dark cushions. Gideon followed her, with slightly effusive fare- well.
 As Alan stood and watched the car slide away, a deadly hatred of Bruce Gideon and Q conviction of the mans evil purpose were born in his heart.
 In the vestibule of the opera house, after the performance, Steyne saw Judy again. She looked half wild with excitement; her eyes had the amethyst sparkle in them that meant extreme elation. Alan had seen her look like that before, when she. had sat in a box at the musicale with him, and they had seemed to be the only people in the world.
 He knew that she would not be responsible for what she did in that mood. The wonderful dancing had gone to her head. She was liv- ing, for the time, in another world. He registered vow that she should

shoulders and gently pushed her from the room. "There, nowi Let's have truce till morning! No more tragedies to-day!"
 When he turned around his syes were serious, though. "Sue, why did you call Arnold Page? That reason you gave wasn't true. My dear, as a liar, you haven't even amateur rating!"
 Sue laughed and sat down by him on the chaise lounge at the foot of the bed.
 T went romantic, Jack. l thought Nancy and Arnold Page used to like each other. And l found some proof that they still do." Very quickly she told him about the picture in the portfolio. When she finished Jack nodded.
 "Arnold's proud sort of chap. He might resent any interference. And Nancy did choose the gold bags, didn't she? There isn't any, thing you can do. You would just dig up something that's over. The chances are that neither one would get a ghost of a thrill out of the other to-day but people hang on to dreams just for the fun of 1t, you know. Sort of wondering how this or that would have been. You know"
 He looked at her for understand ing. Sue shook her dark head and her clear blue eyes were serious. "No, I don't know, Jack. I got what I wanted,
 So did I! wasn't thinking about us. We're different" His arms slipped around her. He bur fed his face against the blue black fragrance of her hair.
 But Sue was wondering if he might sometimes wonder if Bar bara had been an illusive golden shadow. If he would forget the pettiness and trickery she had practiced and see just the shining hair and hear the vibrant voice. But that was foolish! Hadn't he married her, she asked herself?
 She forget about Barbara late the next afternoon when she took Jacks car and drove out to the house which was being put in or. der for them.
 It was low and spreading. The sort of a house that seemed per- fectly satisfied to stay in the place where 1t lived. It was comforta- ble. The workmen were gone.
 Sue walked around, singing un- der her breath, just because she was happy. She started upstairs, then stopped. She had caught sight of a shadow.

Richardson Wright, in his love- ly volume on gardens, says that big guns in public parks are ugly.
 Max I, soldiers wife, be per- mittSA to add my idea to his? Il do not like them either for an- other. reason. They have a sort of unholy righteousness. about them that I abhor. They seem to say, these relics of all our wars, Admire usi We have killed men! We have saved nation! We, or our iron brothers yet unborn will kill and continue to kill time without end. Show us to the chill dren. Explain that after ten mill lion men have recently died in battle, the world Is free and safe and happy, and we have done it!"
 Oh, the grim travesty of 1t all- these mortars, and howitzers and afiti-air craft guns sitting com placently about in public places to remind the children of the past and prepare them for the future. Sou venirs of destruction and omens of still greater bloodshed.
 You see, I am a pacifist. I used to be the opposite, decidedly so. No more so-called patriotic citizen of the United States ever did war work more diligently or more cheerfully than I. And now I hate 1t all.
 Prejudices Best Buried
 All the nations of the earth, think, would do better to remove the emblems of past hatreds, as we are trying to purge our history books of bygone prejudices.
 AS far as being memorials 10 departed heroes or tribute to the bravery of soldiers still living there are other things that would bear the same sentiment much more nobly ;trees planted in mem. ory of the boys who answered the call so bravely-elms or oaks un- der which the wretched or weary may rest; a fountain, a monument or lovely garden. How much finer they would be.
 Perhaps, where they are suit able, certain trophies of battle are all right. But there is a time and a place for everything, and all the time and every place cannot be right for guns.
 H. c. Wells predicts chaos for the world in fifty years or less un- less the nations of the earth can work together with 0 peaceable understanding. He uttered a plati- tude that is as true today as 1t was hundreds of years ago. Until we can change human nature there will be war.
 And we cannot do that with big guns under our noses to remind us of our duty as the war lords see 1t. The next war will see. we are told, not only women and children being killed. but women and children fighting.
 The greatest tribute we can pay to the boys who died for peace is to work our way toward 1t and put away definitely from public view, and the imaginations of growing children. the devilish machines Of Q terrible past.

An argument a year ago had set- tied the question of the correctness of the word "cole" slaw. Cole, apparently was used as the Eng fish version of the German word Kohl" meaning cabbage.
 It was not meant to be written or pronounced "cold" even though the slaw was usually cold one. Lois knew the recipe for the hot slaw and sometimes used 1t. But her favorite was the uncooked variety.
 She used to chop the cabbage ex- ceedingly fine Then to it she would add some heavy cream, about one half cup for two cups chopped cab- bage. Two teaspoons sugar, one half teaspoon salt, some pepper went on next. Then a quarter cup mild vinegar was added. And. the slaw was ready.
 Occasionally Lois beat the cream and added the vinegar to 1t, but she could not see that she gained anything-except additional work -thereby.

Here, briefly, is the Wick Plan for better "Control-of-Cold
 1-Before . Cold Starts
 Use Vicks Nose Drops-a few drops up each nostril-whenever you have been exposed to anything which your own experience tells you is apt to give you a cold contact with others having fresh colds, crowds, stuffy ill-ventilated rooms, public places-a night on the Pullman or a dusty automobile ride-sudden changes in tempera- ture, wet or cold-inhaling smoke, dust, gases-excesses in living. such as over-eating, smoking or drinking-after a hard day, when you are over-tired.
 Tn short, don't wait for that stuff fy. sneezy irritation of the nasal passages--Nature's warning that you are actually ''catching cola"
 2.-After e Cold Starts
 At night, massage the throat and chest well with Vicks VapoRub-- now available in white ''stainiess'' form, if you prefer. Spread on thick and cover with warm flannel. Leave the bed clothing loose around the neck so that the medi- cated vapors arising may be inhal- ed freely all night long. During the day, use Vicks Nose Drops every few hours-any time. any place. (If there is a cough, you win like the new Vlck Cough Drops. actual ly medicated with ingredients of Vickss VapoRub.)
 This gives you full 24-hour treat mant and without the risks of too much informal dosing" which so often upsets the digeation-aespe- cially of children--and lowers body resistance to disease at time when it is most needed. Dem't "dose" colds except on your doctors ad- vice.

not leave the opera house alone with Bruce Gideon. Tn the crowd he became sepa- rated @ little from Chummy and Clara Jenks. He looked back and told Clarissa, by 6 series of signs that he saw Judy and was going to fetch her, so that they might all go to the Cafe Turc together. Chum- my nodded assent.
 When he did find Judy, she was alone. She seemed to be waiting. Most of the crowd had passed on.
 Come along. will you, to the cafe?" he asked her. He did not know how harsh and dictatorial his voice was. The look of her filled him with despair. "Clara and Chummy are at the door,"
 "Oh, thank you" she said. "but I am waiting for Mir Gideon"
 "Where Is he?"
 Talking to his sister. Madame de Toros."
 "Why are you not talking to her, too?"
 1T don't know her."
 Steyne's look burned into her brain. Her pride became a sort of fury.
 And I won't come to the cafe, thanks!"
 "Yes, you will" said Alan. "Clarissa wants you to come along"
 Another time, then, thanks" Judy's voice was contemptuous. T am waiting for MT Gideon"
 Judy, you'll come with us, please!" He looked round and saw the rich mans bulky form coming toward them. Gideon was smiling. The gross lines of his face and the pin points of his cruel little eyes made the young man feel sick. You'll come with us, Judy" he said again in 0 hoarse whisper, and his mouth set itself into Q line of infiexible determination.

For another type of cole slaw she purchased salad dressing. When a bottle of dressing bears the word salad dressing" 1t Is sued to desig- nate a cooked dressing in which there is little if any oil. It is not a mayonnaise when known com mercially as a salad dressing"
 Sometimes she made hot dress ing, coked the cabbage in it slowly and added a few caraway seeds at the time. But this was not the Thanksgiving traditional recipe.
 In making this dressing she mixed one teaspoon salt, one half teaspoon mustard, one tablespoon supar. She added this to one half cup water combined with one quar- ter cup vinegar. She cooked this for a few minutes, added a table, spoon butter and then the cabbage and caraway seeds and cooked for an hour.
