Corrinne had called Sue.
 ''suel Can you leave" she asked. T want to see you. I'm at home now. .. I mean at mother and dads. and I'll pick you up. Tell Sarah I'm having our cook make hundreds Of sandwiches and tub of salad for tonight. Or something like that"
 Sue gave Sarah the message and left her sitting on the top of the stepladder, her chin proped in her hands.
 But at the door Sarah called her again.
 "Sue, Joan isn't in love with Ted. He is with her. Blindiy and madly with me for a iittle- while but she's know 1t. just seem to sense It."
 Love is such a. tangled game nobody ever knows anything about 1t at ali," Sue answered.
 T know it's the bunk, apple sauce and all the rest. But we still want large portions served with every meal. l hope Joan does love Ted if he's making his heart burnt offering to sacrifice before her. There's Corrinne's horn. Skip along. I'm going to lunch with Miles Rob- erts. He's shadowing me again. Miles takes turns playing Mary's-little- lamb to the girls around town. I'm It for his game of tag now"
 Corrinne plunged into conversation right away as Sue slipped down in- to the soft cushions of her car. "rm supposed to hand over that beastly emerald to you. Sue, Neither Harry nor ever want to have one more thing to do with it. Throw 1t in the lake if you want to but don't let us see 1t. I'd advise you to sell it."
 (Which jeweler would give me the most smoney?" Sue asked. T could use money"
 In the end Corrinne went with her and they sold the emerald.
 ; Then Sue stopped atsa little dress shop where the styles were youthful and lovely and the prices were req sonable. She wanted a new dress for the party. The one that she chose was very soft and demure and femi- nine. Blue taffeta, the color of the sky on it's incest days, was made with full skirt that came to her ankles. One side was slit and open. and several inches of pink ruffled taffeta petticoat sparkled against the blue. An enormous pink bow hung down from the shoulders at the back.
 "I have blue slippers" Sue said. and coral beads and bracelets. I'll take 1t. And you'll send it up right away. won't you, please?'
 But at 8 o'clock the dress hadn't arrived She had tried to get the shop at closing time when the gown appeared. and had called again and again. She looked at her other dres- ses. They were limp and languid, as though they had spent their gaiety at too many other parties She found the name of the owner of the shop and called her.
 "Oh. I'm so sorry. It was just an oversight" the woman apologized. I'll go down to the shop right away. Could you pick 1t up?"
 "Well stop on our way to the party" Sue answered. She could change,at Sarah's, she knew. There

Pats head was turned away from them.
 The man dropped to his knees. What's the matter, old fellow?" he asked.
 An agonized moan shook the ter Tier convulsiveIy. It must have hurt him, for he cried out then with q succession of high-pitched whim- pers. The little head turned slight ly. Two tortured dog eyes looked into Jim's.
 Hes been poisoned!" Jim Wal lace exclaimed. That's what's hap pened! Gypsy, call Loomis and tell him to come over here. Tell him to hurry"
 l The girl ran into the house. Gently Jim lifted the little dog, but In spite of his care Pats outcries were plaintive. He writhed and with each movement the moaning lcontirued. It was the wall of agony and weakness, almost like a crying chtid.
 "Steady. old fellow! Easy there" Jim murmured as he bore the ter- rier into the house. Docs 1t hurt so badly? We're going to make you well. Pat. old boy! You're going to be all right
 He laid the little burden down on the davenport in the living room. Pats eyes were closed. A culver ran through his body. The dog tried to squirm to another position. gave up the effort.
 "How long has he been like this?" Jim demanded of Matilda. 'I don't know. sir. It was about 15 minutes ago first noticed him. went out in the yard to call Sam and I saw the dog lying so kind of limp. He was making those queer noises just like he Is now. Sam came and looked at him. too, and said he didn't know what was the natter"
 Gypsy reappeared. "Dr Loomis is coming right away" she said. "Oh. Pat, darling, cant bear to hear you cry! This Is dreadful. Jim. Isn't there something we can dor" Gypsy was cycling the terrier. Pat had twisted around so that he was with his head between his paws. The eyes that had been so bright were dull. Pat raised them plead- ingly to his master. Gypsy noticed that the bit of tail which invariably wagged in gay greeting was still. She slipped down to the floor and stroked the dogs head.
 Don't do it," Jim cautioned. "I think It's better to let him alone. I wish knew how long ago he got the poison. Did Loomis say he was starting at once? Lord. I'd like to do something but don't know what to try"
 "Yes, he said he'd hurry. told Dr Loomis we thought 1t was | VniaAu nh xvhv AAaamst hA rAfNn ? Why doesn't he come?" "IfsI could get hold of the one who did this" Jim threatened. darkly, "I'd pay him for 1t. I'd like Ito have my hands on him for just about five minutes!"
 The shrill ring of the doorbell | cut the air: Matilda answered and a moment later q small man in a dark suit entered. He carried q medical case.
 "How do you do. MT Wallace. Understand you have q sick dog. Where'll find him ?' i ''Here." Jim said. pointing to the davenport. 'I guess it's poison, Doc. He seems pretty bad"
 The proprietor of the pet hospital speculptiyeiy. lie knelt beside the terrier and studied his eyes. A moment later he had the medical case open on the table and was pre- pairing q mixture. Jim held the ! dogs body rigid while the veterin. I arian forced the dose down the ani- maps throat. There were writhinRs and wrigglings and more cries of pain, For nearly an hour Dr Loomls stayed watching the dog trying to lrelieye 'hIp torture.

 "Fine enamel woodwork is expen- sive in the first place and needs great care afterwards. We may wash 1t with soapsuds made of linseed oil soap dissolved in warm water. or we may use something as fine as silver polish paste. Frequently have used the paste.

Croutons make a delicious accom- paniment for cream soups of all va rieties, but especially the spring vegetable cream soups. The crunchy richness of carefully made croutons adds the finishing touch to a delicate puree or cream soup.
 Croutons may be properly
 served in two ways: CD They are passed to each person immediate ly after his soup is placed before
 him and he helps himself. The
 dish that holds the croutons may
 be an ordinary vegetable dish with a tablespoon in it. CD If the soup
 is served by the host at the table.
 English style. he drops one or two
 spoonsful of croutons into each serv- ing of soup.
 Croutons, unlike crackers. are
 supposed to go right into the soup and form part of 1t. They are
 eaten with the soup from the soup plate and never with the fingers. Some cooks dip croutons in
 melted butter and brown them in la moderate oven. while others pre- fer to fry them in deep fat. Crou- tons for children are best made by thoroughly drying half-inch
 cubes of stale bread and then brown ing them in the oven.
 Stale Bread for CrOutons The bread chosen for croutons Is
 more important than the average housewife realizes. 1t should be stale, but not too dry and crumb- ling. A fine and close-grained tex ture is essential. Cut 1t in slices
 about one-half inch thick. remove
 crusts and cut each slice into cubes
 with very sharp knife to insure la geometrical neatness and accur- lacy. They are then dried until crisp clear through. After this they can be toasted or fried in deep hot fat.

 Burnt-orange linen made the orig inal with white contrast and brown binding
 It is distinctly individual. It is lovely for immediate and all summer vactaions wear.
 Another equally charming scheme is to use striped material in two di- rectiOns with plain collar and cuffs. For instance, the stripes could run horizontally in the front bodice and hip yoke.
 Gingham checks with plain ging- ham Is very smart this season.
 Then, too, you'll like 1t immensely of shantung in gay polka -dots in combination with white dotted swiss or plain self fabric.
 Printed tub silk, linen and cotton broadcloth prints also suitable.
 Style No. PTS is designed for girls of 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 years. z Size 8 requires 1 Y yards of 39- inch material with 5-8 yard of 35- inch contrasting.

 The other day in an article about Chinese farming, I mentioned the fast growth of bamboo. To-day I want to tell you more about this re- markable grass.
 Yes, 1t is proper to call 1t grass" It grows to a great height and some times has thick stalk, but scientists say 1t belongs to the grass family, not the tree family.
 Bamboo Is the worlds tallest grass. On the island of Ceylon, 1t reaches a height of 120 feet-equal to the height of nine-story build- ing. Tests have proved that Ceylon bamboo, during early weeks of growth increases it's height at the rate of '16 inches day. If 1t kept growing at this rate for three years, 1t would become higher than Eiffel Tower: but like most other living things. the older 1t gets the slower 1t grows.

"Oh, I'll never hold my head up again!" walled Peters mother. 1 thought when I went out to get the paper and saw big policeman com ing down the street leading my boy by the collar I'd simply collapse"
 Don't cry. mother. It's as hard on the rest of us as 1t is on you. l think we're lucky not to have to go to jail and bail him out. that's all what did you do exactly?"
 Peter shifted to the other foot and hung his chin over one shoul- der. "Aw, some of us kids were just goin' through the greenhouse and we stopped to sec the goldfish. an one was just standin' there bifnkin' at me"
 "Fish don't stand"
 Well, fioatin'-an' 1 just reached in an grabbed him. was only holdin' i'm in my hand and watchin him flop around and ali of sudden a man hollered at me. I woulda dropped Inn back in but when the man chased me I had to run, didn't I? An I hadn't time to drop the fish back in.
 "AIl the fellas ran an we went down pas the zoo an I saw a little pool of water in some rocks and so threw the goldfish over the fence so he'd fall in the water. but there was big pelican standin' there an he ate the fish.
 When we turned the corner by the monument there was the man that'd chased us an a cop was with him. And they jawed somethin' awful and then the cop took hold of me an brought me home"
 Well, it's a disgraceful story. You're old enough to know not to touch park property. What kind of a citizen do you think you're going to make. eh? And what was that story the cop told your mother about those water lilies?" "Tn tell you what he said," cried his mother. He said, This boy is just naturally a-a--a thief! The superintendent at the conservatory told me he was the boy who took off his clothes, jumped into the lily pond and cut off two of the biggest blossoms and t-took them to his g-girl in school That's what he said"
 Did you?"
 "Yessir."
 Aren't you ashamed?"
 Now sit down there and get at your lessons"
 Adam" said Grandma mildly after a few minutes, speaking to Peters father. "do you remember when you caught chubs in Zeb Breen's creek and then broke into his springhouse and dropped q chub into each cream crock? And do you remember the time you tied the cows tail to-"
 "You win, grandma" said father slowly. He held out his hand to his son, and remarked with a twinkle in his eye: Chip, will you shake hands with the old Block? I'll see you through.

Soft, smooth effects in cultures are the goal to aim at this season. Let your shingled side and back
 hair grow long enough to work into
 a snood or curls. The perfect head of hair shows no ends jutting out
 here or there, in haywire manner. If your hair is addicted to split
 ends. do something about 1t. For
 the head of hair that has split ends IS not the healthiest head of hair
 in the world. Don't singe 1t. Clip 1t. Have a first rate barber clip l, your hair a half inch or so above the split ends. st But don't stop there. Your scalp is dry rthe ends wouldn't split. | Give your scalp oil. You can have
 hot olive oil shampoo weekly. But 1 in the meantime. treat your scalp to a little oil each night. !! This is the best way to do it.. Pour about two tablespoons of olive
 oil. liquid vaseline, special scalp oil that you like or even castor oil, into
 a small aluminium cup or the top
 of. an ordinary cold cream jar and
 heat it.
 Then. when 1t Is still hot, part your hair this way and that, and WftH d IHeuiCluc uGOpppI, .dppiy tuC | hot oil right onto the scalp, not the hair.
 If your scalp is as dry as the con- dition indicates. the oil will be ab-
 sorbed by the next morning after | the application. But don't massage your whole head just after applying
 the oil. for it will grease up your hair too much for beauty. If putting oil on your scalp di-
 rectly doesn't appeal to you, try an oily tonic. one that species its util- ity in treating dry hair. The tonic
 method Is efficacious and tones up the entire scalp and makes the hair l lustrous at the same time. For. in putting iton. you must of necessity give yourself scalp massage. brush your hair some and rub 1t. This in
 itself is one big step towards that goal of beauty. If you use a tonic | with oil in 1t. you accomplish two
 things at the same time. Mexico will hold special session of congress to consider the new la bOr bill.

First sutctsssSri 'tan.',uo Gslse" I'm United States.
 Because we 50 often see 1t in the shape of a fishpole, we may gain the idea that bamboo Is of only one kind; but there are almost 500 kinds In the world. Some kinds produce flowers and seeds once each year. Others live to the age of from 100 to 100 years before coming to flower. One kind has Q stalk II inches thick.
 The favored home of bamboo Is Asia, but 1t also grows well in Africa and South America. Bam- boo groves" thrive in England and in the southern part of the United States. especially in Georgia and California.
 Bamboo provides rigs for fans. and Is used in making one type of phonograph needle. It Is fashioned into shape of hairpins. and Is used for mats. porch curtanis and para sol ribs. 5 In Asia 1t Is used in building houses and bridges, and likewise serves in making beds. cradles. chairs. pails and water pipes.
 Chinese eat bamboo. The young shoots are pickled. candied and cooked like asparague.
