Bows on BIOuSeS
And of course blouSeS go in
for bows, too. Lots of blouseS
actually tie around at one side
with bow. Others use them
for purely decorative purposes,
like the print blouse with plain
colored bows that's Illustrated.
Separate Scarfs are about the
most important single item in
the fashion of bows. You can
make so many different kinds
of bows with them. There's the
good, old-fashioned sailor knot

BOw-Tied Scarfs
Regular looped bow-knotS with
long ends to hang down the
front are another favorite way
of tying Scarfs. Or in a big
single Uoop caught over at one
end.

He's Too PrOmiscuOus

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I've been going around with a
Young man for about six montns
and we are both very much IN
love. He says he's wild about
me. but can he be If he's crazy
to kiss and neck other girls?
I really do love him, but I'm SO
terribly disgusted I don't seem
to care if 1 ever see him again.
I never kiss other fellows, al
though plenty have tried to kiss
me, and I feel that he should
act the same way. Do you
think I should continue going
with him if he takes that attl.
tude? I'm so afraid it will
cause me unhappiness later on
and. as we are both very young
Che is 20 and I am 16), I think
it wouldn't be so hard to break
now. Please tell me what to do.
DISGUSTED.
I don't blame you for being
disgusted. And, of course, the
young man doesn't care about
you in the most casual fashion
or he wouldn't be so "soft" over
every girl he meets. Some boys
are like that; they yield weakly
to emotion. He is only 20
and has plenty of time to out
grow his universal calf love.
Don't take him seriously.

CHAPTER 35

I was a moving picture &C
tress-after all.
Dope fiend, or no dope fiend,
sane or crazy-I was an &C
treSS.
Very well them would act.
So I began to smile-I pre-
tended to be careless and care
free.
I talked pleasantly to the
attendants, and it was not
long till they gathered around
me, at recreation hour and I
told them long tales about
HOLLYWOOD, and the studios,
and New York, and the wild
times at the night clubs. I
described my beautiful home,
with it's swimming pool and
gardens, and gorgeously fur
nished rooms, told them
about my clothes, my house
dresses, my robes from India
and China. My furs from
Russia, my sport dresses from
England, my evening dresses
from Paris.
Alma's Many Admirers
I told them about my pearls,
my diamonds, and my rubies,
and I told them-this they
loved best Of all-about my ad-
mirers.
They would look at each
other and laugh, but I saw
envy in their cruel eyes, after
ALL helpless prisoner as I was,
watched, ruled, ordered around,
every minute Of my lfe-1 was
still luckier than they-for
once at least I had lived.
I told them about my hand
some husband and the beau
tiful flowers he used to bring
me, and the letters he wrote
to me-but I had to be care
full about that. I made them
a little too envious and one
of them began to try to goad
me into some temper or fit OF
violence so that she could lock
me up in my cell again.
But was too clever for her,
I laughed and changed the sub
ject.

out in the yard there was
a mulberry tree, under this
mulberry tree we of the milder
group of what they called in
savage irony, patients" sat
every day in recreation hour.
Most of this little group that
daily gathered under the null
berry tree we're sane on all
but some one subject. Many
of them were persons of the
highest education and refine

ciated good food and good
clothes, and a little diversion.

lives at all.

DIET AND HEALTH
BY DR.. Logan Clendening-

asthma, IL had hay fever, Is
had vasomotor nasal catarrh, II
had attacks Of hives, IA had
eczema and 6 a form Of skin
disease called angio-neurotic
oedema.
Such people may be sensitive
to many different things. This
one may have asthma when
near horses. That one gets
hives when he eats brazil nuts.
The other a dermatitiS when in
the presence Of primroses. And
the whole bunch may get itchy
eyes and runny noses when the
ragweed blooms on August IT.
Besides that, many unslls-
pected though familiar sub
stances seem to cause such
conditions. 1t often takes a
good deal of detective work to
uncover them. Such stories
as this are common in the
literature:
A Queer Condition
A woman said she noticed
that she had asthma every
time she had her watch clean
ed. It was found she was
allergic to lockwood dust which
jewelers. use to clean gold.
A school teacher had myS-
teriouS dermatitiS of the hands.
1t persisted in spite of all
dietary restrictions. Finally it
was found the condition was
due to chalk dust.
A stenographer had asthma
beginning every afternoon at
S o'clock when she quit work
and lasting two hours. She
never had it Sunday, nor dur
ing vacations. She was sensi-
tive to the glue on envelope
flaps which she licked when
she mailed le letters at the
end of the day.

FASHIONS
F FANCIES

No woman can have radiant
health unless she has plenty OF
fresh air. Every day the lungs
should have a flushing out
way down to the cellar cells
through five or ten minutes Of
deep breathing. Stand erect,
chest lifted, heels together,
hands on hips. Take a long,
slow, deep breath through the
nostrils. Send the air out for
chilly through the mouth with a
whistle. Note the rosy flush
that will appear upon your
cheeks.
A Punch Effect Is important
in the shoe world, for women
have demonstrated their liking
for punched feathers. For
spring thereS is a dark brown
kid with grained leather Vamp
almost entirely covered with
tiny perforatipns in radiating
effect.

NEW YORK-Have you a
bow this season? (And we
don't mean beau0 Somewhere
in one of your costumes you
must be sure to have one.
Because fashion-know1ng wom-
en- are wearing them-in dozens
of ways and dozens of places.
From hats to shoeS-literally-
you'll find bows-feminine, in
teresting, decorative.
These bows can be perky and
saucy. or soft and dignified-
depending on what mood you
want to express. They can be
an actual part of the costume
like sash that ties in a bow
or something extra, such as a
clip or pin.
And they can be a real bow
something actually tied-or a
trimming in the shape Of a bow,
like bow-knot shaped applique
on a sleeve, for example.
Bows on Hats
There are bows on hatS-lotS
and lots of them. The way the
one is put on the hat in the
sketch-right in the middle of
the forehead-is effective, isn't
it? You won't see as many
hats with bows in this spot as
you will on the side or under
the brim-because everybody
couldn't wear a hat trimmed
as this one is.
And to go to the other ex-
treme-there are bows on shoes.
Flat little tailored bows of
leather, and appliques in tiny
bow shapes. Not on nll shoes,
naturally. But on many of
them.
Coats have scarfs that can
be tied in bows. So can some
of the wide SaSh-like belts on
coats.
Dresses, too, have their scarfS
and girdles to be tied in bows.
And they often have little bows
on sleeves, bigger ones at one

The bodily condition known
as allergy which we have been
discussing this week, Is present
in a good proportion Of the
population. Just what the per-
centage is has been variously re-

form of it, occurs in those parts
of the country where ragweed
grows densely, in about 5 per

me. On and on I sped, scream
ing, and on the verge of faint
ing, I could hear the children
behind me shouting in glee.
My guards were roaring with
laughter, I was giving them all
a pleasant diversion.
Fully 200 yards away, I looked
back-not a soul had taken a
step toward catching me.
Now was my time.
Like a deer, sped on across
the lawn, and down a steep en-
bankment, I leaped across a
little ravine, climbed a wire
fence, and dashed into an
orange grove, adjoining the Pat
ton grounds.
I threw myself on the earth,
and rested for an Instant
heard them shouting together
down there, and I knew they
were after me.
Torn and Bleeding
Down the opposite side Of
the little ridge I went, my
feet became entangled in the
long, tough, fox grass, and I
fell. struggled to my feet
and went on. I fell again,
and got up again. My face and
hands were torn and bleeding,
nv clothes we're almost gone,
could see through a gap in
the trees below me an open
road. with automobiles running
up and down. If I could only
make that road perhaps I could
catch on behind a fleeting car
and make my getaway"
Another ravine, another br1ar
patch, my ankle twisted and I
fell again, but I scrambled to
my feet and kept on.
Then caught my toe, under
a fallen branch, treacherously
buried in the tangled grass, and
fell heavily.
I stuck the top Of my head
against the tree trunk and I
was half stunned. I was too
weak to regain my feet, but
I began to creep on my
hands and knees.
Captured Again
No use, the pack was upon
me.
The attendants descended
upon me like wolves, they
slapped my bloody face, and
tKisted my arms behind me.
ANONYMOUSLY I was led back
and taken to the superintend-
ent's office.
He ordered me sent to ward
five, the next to the worst
ward in the place, as punish
ment.
"But San Quentin" I gasped.
you'll have to obey the law!"
The superintendent smiled.
"Your attempt doesn't count"
he said. We'll keep you
around with us for a while.
We all like you so much you
know"
And he smiled again.
I was led away to ward five,
where was placed in a room
with a young woman Of the
semi-violent type. the guards
told me about her, and what
she was liable to do almost any
time.
They laughed heartily when
they told it.
I thought I had seen some
thing of misery in Patton.
My education had only just
begun. The patients in number
five were all violent, many Of
them we're criminals. We had
religious maniacs, degenerateS
of every description. and dozens
of, poor people with no minds
whatsoever.
Life there was one long siege
of terror.

ADVICE TO
LOVELORN
BY Beatrice Fairfax


DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
1 am a grass widow of 20 and
have four children. My husband
was Shell-shocked in the World
War and deserted me four
years ago just before my baby
was born. But one can't al
ways stay heart-broken and I'm
getting a divorce now. About
q year ago I met a business
man whom I liked and two
months ago I invited him to
play cards; he made a mistake
in the number of the house and
went to a neighbor's who did
a great deal of gossiping about
his calling on me. I have not
been to his place of business
since, though I find it con-
venient to trade there. The
Joke is, he only came once and
then didn't see me. I have
never thought of a second mar
riage, as I have too many chill
dren. But I don't enjoy all
this gossip and teasing. M. W.
A woman who has had as bit
ter experiences as yours needs
friends, diversion, and some
thing to give her a new point
of view. Disregard the local
"cat club" and shop where 1t
is most convenient. Have your
friends in to play cards; be in.
different to the neighborhood
gossips. The best Of luck to
you!

told her. "and. I'm CRATE

Her heart leaped again.
She'd always liked him, always
pitied him, even when she had
been most irritated and impa-
tient with him. Lately both
his spoken and silent love-
making had begun to disturb
her and her conscience had
started to ache a little. Three
hundred a month and the love
liest home, the best friend in
the world-all very well, but
she was taking it all fora

for teal"
They reached the house, wet
and glowing and out of breath.
Mrs. Lorrimer heard their noisy
entrance and smiled. 1t was so
good to have noise in that
house again.
At the library door Lorrimer
pulled Mary Lou back a mo-
ment.
It'll never admit" he whis-
pered-but he was laughing a
little. "that you were right
about a number Of things.
