 Sue rented second typewriter and decided to speed up on her typing. She opened 1t rather wearily the first night. Sarah was dining out and wouldn't be home until later.
 For a while Sue just sat and stared at the solitaire on her finger. When Jack came back she wouldn't have to type. She decided that she would write him another letter instead of practicing. One had gone out that afternoon. She slipped fresh sheet of paper in the typewriter and start ed. When the letter was ready she felt better. She started to practice. Faster and faster. It made her forget that she was homesick.
 Suddenly there was humping on the wall that separated her room from the one next door.

heart that the business was headed toward disaster. All her own funds were exhausted, spent in large sums to the New York specialist. When she spoke to her father about this state of affairs he &C., knowledged wearily that he knew it all well as she did. "I've begged your mother to write to Irene to help us out," he confessed, "but she says we ain't no business bothering Irene."
 "She knows Irene," Beryl com- mented dryly. "If that girls gener- ous, then Shylock was 8 Santa Claus. Look at the things she's sent mother, 8 pair of silk gloves and rubber exerciser!"
 A few days later MT Everett ap- peared at the store with brighter face than Beryl had sene him wear ing for some time. "Your mothers g written to Irene," he explained. s.That's great" she said, and turned hastily away.
 As the days passed and nothing was heard from Irene the bright ness vanished from MT Everett's face. Beryl knew that he had quarreled with her mother, but when she was present Mrs Everett would say nothing. There was a look of stubbornness on her moth- CTS face that Beryl heard MT Ev- erett describe as mulish. Perhaps her mother didn't real ize how things were. 1T guess" Beryl said to her one day, you don't know how serious it is with Dad. He's pretty badly in debt He's got to have life line or he'll sink"
 The lines of stubbornness deep ened around her mothers com- pressed lips.
 "You might have thought of that" she answered, when you | wouldn't take care of yourself. Irene is married and gone. It seems to me the ones to help are those at home"
 Beryl bit her lip to keep back a

I do not know whether your little people are sick or we'll, or what the doctor has ordered for them. But in any event 1t is a good thing to know how to prepare the "extras'' so often suggested.
 The diet for all young children generally should be guided by the family doctor, but doctors are too busy to hand out recipes For in- stance, if the baby has tempera- ture and must be taken off his reg gular food, the doctor may say: "Just give him albumen water un- til he is better.
 But how to make albumen water - that is the question.
 The raw white of a fresh egg should be pressed through & piece of clean white linen cloth, or fine cheesecloth doubled. Make 1t into a little bag and squeeze hard. The egg will go through. Then strain the juice of an orange the same way. Mix the two thoroughly and fill up the glass with cool. boiled water. Put this into the til he is better"
 N Digests Easily
 Probably he won't like 1t; par ticularly whe nhis appetite IS low anyway, put He VIII thhS Vhoub" " keep him going. A baby can get along for a few days this way very nicely. The big thing to remember when stomaohs get upset with the heat, teething and so forth, Is that they need rest, and the orange ale bumen will give them that. It prac- tically digests Itself.
 Junket often Is ordered for older children. It Is not hard to make' but takes care.
 The rule for simple junket is one cup milk. t.4 Junket tablet, ten: spoonful cold water. Heat milk until luke warm, Dissolve tablet in cold water and stir into milk. Pour Into glasHes and allow 10 stand half an hour in warm place. Then set to cool,

vanilla, 1-2 junket tablet, an d2 tea spoonfuls of cold water. Beat egg, add sugar, and then pour in the hot milk very slowly. Put in double- boiler and stir until it thickens. Take off fire quickly and allow to cool until just warm. Crush junket tablet in the water, and mix with the extra luke-warm milk, then add this to the custard, mixing thor oughly. Add vanilla, Pour into cups of molds and chill.
 Stewed fruits are best for young children, that is. excepting the cit. rous fruits. Apple sauce may be made this way: Pare the apples, cut into small pieces, and add to every cup of apples 1-4 cup of cold water. Cover and cook the apples until ten. der; strain. Add 9 tablespoonfuls of sugar to every cup of strained ap- ples to make 1t tasty, but less sugar may be used, depending on condi. tons.
 Don't swetccn Prunes
 Prunes should be looked over, washed and allowed to stand in cold water oycer night. Next morning put all in c pan on the back of the stove, or over Q very slow fire. and simmer for four hours. No sugar is hooded, ns they already are sweet enough. For babies. the prunes should be presssd through Q fne wire sieve. Watch that tho wire doesn't break off.
 For beof juice, use round steak or rump. Warm for two minutes. then cut ln small pieces. kqneexe out juiee by meat press or potato rieer' Feed the juice warm.

tans hides # they are left ent iH # long enough. Look at the fTit4 out faces of old sailors and zee wissf ik can do. Most women recD&Hi&n this and oil and grease their alkins and use lotions and unguemts until they get only the benefit from the sums raps and none of their harm.
 But your hair is another thfnE again. How many women realize the deleterious effects sunlight can have on hair unless t. too, is cared for?
 May Need Special Tonic.
 By all means use a tonic in sun- mer time. If your hair Is growing dry and brittle, use one that is compounded for dry scalps. If your hair doesn't show any bad ef- fects yet, use hair tonic for nor-s mai scalps. Seldom do you need a tonic for oily scalps, if you ev- pose your hair enough to wind and sunshine, and brush it adequately.
 There is art in the way you ap- ply tonic. Dno't use 1t too abund- scalp, not the hair. Two things aid you in doing this correctly. A medicine dropper can be used. A tiny pad of cotton dipped into the tonic is even more satisfactory.
 Two tablespoons of hair tonic should be enough to properly treat your scalp at given time.
 Don't MOisten Hair.
 Part your hair down the front first. Pat the little pad all along this part, dampening every portion of it, but only the scalp. Then part the hair an inch to the right. repeat the performance with the pad and tonic and continue parting your hair all over your head until you come back to the front again. Usual ly it Is a good thing to end by dampening the center part, just as you began the process.
 After you have thoroughly mois- tended your entire scalp. massage the tonic in. This is an important part of the use of tonic.

Cynthia was proud as any queen. She was the most recent bride in the group and here she was ready to show off her raspberry pre- serves. The empty jelly glasses, the small pottery jam pots, the cunning little preserve jars had been standing empty on her shelves ever since the girls had given them to her at the shower. And now they were beginning to be filled. Her husband was es- pecially fond of red raspberry pre- serves on fresh, hot baking powder biscuit. So here was the preserves. Now she had to learn how to mako the biscuit. But Nancy told her that it was easy. She had made the raspberry jam or preserves in two ways. The first calls for equal parts red, raspberries and sugar, cooked together until boiling. then cooked for six minutes, poured into clean jars and paraffined.

 He suggests the following condi- tions as a basis for an ideal social order:
 Cultivation of physical perfection. No persons allowed to have children without certificates of bodily and mental fitness. Large families neither approved nor desired. An Al husband or wife as much sought after as wealth and titles are now.
 A rational costume for both sex es, cheap, becoming and scanty. enabling beauty to be recognized
