LONG CUTS LOOSE
(By Robert F. Paine)

Huey Long of Louisiana has shocked his fellow
Democratic senators in secret caucus to a stand
still and will be designated 1.-The wild hyena of
the south" if he doesn't look out.
Senator Long insists on Democratic legislation to
"decentralize wealth." which he proposes to do by
tax conscation of individual incomes in excess of
100000 year and of inheritances in excess of
S50O00OO. Some peculiar thoughts wild in his
mind such as these:
The universal depression is due to few of the
people possessing so much of the money.
The gable about war debts, reconstruction
porations farm relief, farm loan banks, moratorums
and such will get us nowhere because the factory
and railroad wheels will not go round and round
normally until the masses get more Of the money
to spend.
People able to will hoard and banks, too, until
there is confidence in a definite plan to put down
the maldistrbution of profits.
No man needs more than 100000 of annual in
come and millions of men need such mans surplus
Estates of more than 100000 are, almost in
variably, possible through advantage of special
privilege and arc accumulated by taking from the
whole mass of people Their disposal usually wrecks
families, but is good for the parastical legal pro-
fession.

 "She wanted something not so simple, gathered. chose the wrong setting. Oh, know I was a fool not to have her pick it out in the first place. But was being a sentimental egg. It seems that most of her friends are going in for a different design
 Sally would probably prefer wearing this ring to any other, just because you picked it out. But being Sally, she can't fall one step behind in the parade" Even while she said comforting words Ruth wondered why she kept defending Sally so vehement ly. She certainly wasn't angelic in her own attitude toward her sister. Suddenly the knowledge came. If ever Joe Raynor and Sally broke their engagement, and Joe turned back to her, she wanted to know she had played fairly. That nothing she had done had made the other engagement end. That she herself had won the man she wanted. Sht was really being selfish, she told herself.

Gingham checks have realized their social ambitions this spring. Nothing is smarter for some of the new Paris suits than the unusual little blouses couturiers have made from high grade American cotton ginghams, checked.
 Short puffed sleeves. large white buttons, sewed on with blue thread, a cute new stand-offish coll and a neat collar line all add distinction to this blue and white checked gingham blouse that Lyolene makes for a trig blue suit for spring.
 The suit itself, as a matter of fact, is tailored simplicity person flied. Just neat, nice lines, with the skirt and coat also trimmed with the white buttons. It's the check ed blouse that gives it its original ity. For another navy blue suit, the same dressmaker. uses fine red and white checked gingham for the blouse.
 This blouse is something elese again. It is tailored as the finest silk would be tailored, with little front panel that buttons over white pearl buttons in double points. Then there is separate Ascot scarf, also with pointed ends that can be worn with one end outside l the coat and one in, or can be tied
 in a bow under the chin, according to one's mood.

not seem tinid. She must appear sure of herself at all costs.
 The facade of the building hous- ing the Melo company was any, thing but appealing. Huddled under the elevated tracks, smoke stained and weather worn, it seemed to the job seeker to have a slightly sinister air. Susan con- suited the slip again. Yes, it was the right number. Mentally gird- ing herself for battle, she swung the heavy, dirty glass door inward.
 A red-headed office boy, chew ing gum. sat behind an ancient par tition near the door. Behind him loomed stoves of all sizes and quail ity. Susan shuddered. After the heat of the street the place had a fetid coolness that reminded her of an unused cellar.
 She advanced and said to the red-haired boy in what she hoped were the proper tones. q wish to see Mir Petterman. am iron, Blocks Institute"
 With a cynical gaze the youth rose and shambled toward the rear of the store. Susan's eyes, gradually accustoming themselves to the gray light. could just make out in the far corner the figure of man at a large, old-fashioned roll top desk. A single bulb, shaded by folded sheet of letter paper. burned above his head.
 ugh, what dismal placer she murmured to herself. Some. how in her dreams of crisp, effi- cient offices there had been noth- ing like this.
 The boy shuffled toward her and pointing vaguely in the direc. ton of the swinging electric bull mumbled. Mist" Petterman'n See ya."
 Susan passed through the gate and picked her way fastidiously over the unbelievably dirty fiooi to the desk where the man sat.
 She heard an oily voice say in. gratiatingly, "sit down young lady"
 Shuddering inwardly, Susar slipped into the armchair beside him. The man called Pettermar had long sharp nose and sal low skin. His dark suit wa. crumpled and spotted.

 YOURSELF

There is only one right way to greet spring. That is with clear, appreciative eyes that see beauty. You can do lot to make your eyes that way. For when you your self look nice, the whole world looks nice to you!
 Watch your eyelids. Wrtnkled lids make you look older and tired. Keep them greasy. Put oil on nights, with a gentle massage. Oil them after powdering, just before you step forth S conquer your job, your latest best beau." or your whole social group at some party.
 Moist-looking eyelids give you a lanQuid look that is allufing. Moreover, it's a young look. What more can you ask!
 Don't leave your lids dripping. The sophisticate knows just how much oil to apply and just how to wipe it off so that only the gleam remains to make folks wonder how your lovely eyes got that way.
 If you don't know what to do for your eyelashes, put in one evening learning. Mascara can be used so that 1t doesn't show but just makes your lashes look as If they are well-bruhed and well cared for. This brushing and the mascara itself doesn't hurt the lashes even one little bit. It helps them!
 Have you ever had your eye lashes curled? Well, it's being done and moreover you can do 1t your self. There's little eye lash curl CT that grabs ahold of your lashes and makes them curl up in back. in spite of their natural straight laced tendencies.
 Just try curling them once. Curled lashes do much the same softening thing to your eyes ap- pearance that curls about the face do for your features. There's magic of a sort in curly lashes and after all, spring was made for magic.

A RING FOR SALLY

"A hlNG FUR SAALI
 It seemed to Sue that long min utes passed while she waited for Joe Raynor to answer her question concerning the handwriting. She couldn't focus her attention on the writing though. That was the worst part of the waiting. She kept thinking of the man across from her. His voice, his smile, the way his eyes could laugh.
 we were discussing handwrit- ing one night not as long age" he said then. Sally had been to a party where one stunt had been to take the name that you drew... :. somebody else's name in the room, it was. and write is as many freakish ways as you could. Some one who knows about such things says this reveals character. Sally was trying to find out my secret sins. Why?"
 "Oh, nothing. I found come pc culiar specimens of handwriting and one or two of them reminded me of your writing.' "How do you know how writer" he asked amusedly.
 Haven't seen your bold ant dashing penmanshfp on more thar one order for pills ?" Ruth asked him. She didn't tell him that Q letter or two which he had written to her ever so long ago, were safe- ly put away. T made a bet about the writing and I won!"
 Don't mention 1t to Sally she said. "She thinks I'm foolish enough as it is."
 q won't" he promised mechan- ically. Ruth knew that he was agreeing with Sally's opinion of her. She could see that his mind was on something else. That was why he had not been more curious He opened the top drawer of his desk and pulled uot a small gray box. A jewellers box. Ruths' heart turned over. Slowly. Sickeningly Rings were so. .. final. So binding.
 He was opening thebox and hand ing it to her.
 "What do you think of this ring?" he asked.
 She glanced down at the single, f1awless solitaire that sparkled in it's white gold setting. Not plati- mum. She noted that. But of course he couldn't afford platinum. "It's lovely" she said. Sally will adore it."

The weeks wore on and soon 1t was June. A suddenly hot and breathless summer brooded over the city. The lake burned under a summer sun and girls began Q wear their thipnest frocks and sha- diest hats even in the downtown district.
 To Susan, young and radiantly healthy, it was pleasant enough time. She looked her best in the summer heat, her hair curled in little ringlets around her delicate ly flushed face. She had 8 new sweater suit of blue knitted stuff and felt very much the young business woman wearing 1t.
 Still there seemed no chance of her securing job. Calls came in, dribbled into the office, where a superior young woman in white linen received them and passed them along to the super stenog- raphers of Mir Claude Blocks up- per class. Susan waited in vain to be called. At last there ar rived a day when Mir Block him. self stood in the doorway and beckoned to her.

Mint appears early in the spring and lasts all summer and although most of us associate this herb with lamb 1t can be used in many other combinations with equal success.
 We prize mint mainly for its re- freshiing flavor but the English consider 1t helpful in correcting fiatulence and use it with new peas and new potatoes for this purpose.
 There are many combinations in which mint can be used to give new zest to trite dishes. Try combining mint with new cabbage. One table spoon minced mint leaves added to one cup shreded cabbage and the whole dressed with lemon juice and oil makes an inviting salad. Toma- toes stuffed with the combination will be found appetizing. Cucum- bers skrinkled with minced mint leaves are good too.
 The mint and fruit combinations are innumerable. All fruit cups are given a seasonal and alluring touch when mint is included among their ingredients. Grape fruit gain new interest when mint is sprinkled over 1t. Bananas used in any way are vastly improved when treated to a generous sprinkling of minced mint Sprigs of mint served in iced tea and chilled fruit drinks add de- cidedly refreshing flavor to the bev- craze. When honeydew mellons come in market remember to serve them with frosted mint sprigs.
 Adding Variety to Fruits
 Fruits folded in mint jelly ir place of the usual lemon jelly are a pleasant change. Mint sherbej Is an ideal dessert for spring din ners.
 Sometimes merely bruising mini leaves in the bowl in which fruit cup or fruit salad Is mixed gives sufficient flavor. Again the minced mint leaves are wanted for definite mint flavor.
 If you make some mint syrur you can bottle it and have it or hand for use when mint is not ir season. This syrup can be used te make jelly or ice and make a de- licious drink combined with lemon juice and ginger ale. It can also Dc used in place of fresh mint in fruit cups.
