"The girl in yellow is a stenog-

tinued. "She came to our office
looking for work. Couldn't under
stand why we didn't want her. A
funny piece. She seemed to think
she's be a great ornamentation or
help or something. Dad sort of
liked her. She's lively and rather
sparkling. He gave her some let

worked together. He seemed to
like her.
"I'll have to catch up on my

will be giving me a blue envelope
and putting the glittering girl in
my place." she answered dreamily,
eyes on the flame of red-gold hair.
The girl didn't matter really. Sues
job was safe.
When Kenneth Corbett and the
girl arose to leave they came over
to Jack and Sue stable. Intro
auctions were gay and easy. The
strange girls name was Louise
Stanton. But looking into the girls
eyes, Sue decided that she didn't
like her. The eyes were mysteri-

Keeping Pocketbo0ks
Clean

Few women take the care of
their pocketbooks that they do of
their shoes. Use the same cream
on leather bags that you use on
shoes. And rub them glossy with
a flannel cloth. Clean the inside
with fluid and air them well before
using again.

Style Chats

Probably the only thing with
greater possibilities than styling
a policeman's dinner would be
styling a gangster's barbecue. In
the speeches, they all wish each
other luck. They can both hit with
either hand and they know what
footwork means. At a recent jam
boree in ROTOR Point, farewelling
Chief William Pennington after his
forty years Of solving Norwalk's
major crimes, Chief Brennan Of
Stamford took the speaking floor
looking like Saville Row million

"Nettie, take out this garbage.

Mrs Smith united her apron
and hung It up.
when Nettie had finished her
task, her mother called: "Nettie,
the front porch Is covered with
flies where the baby broke hissbot-
tie. Get q mop out of the cellar
and some water and wipe 1t up"
Then she turned back to the
phone.
It took Nettie half an hour to
do what her mother could have
done In five minutes, but she was
only ten years old.
"Can / go over to play with
Helen 2" she asked then.
wait there's something else
I want you to do" Her mother
pursed her lips and thought hard.
There was really nothing in her
mind at the minute but. she knew
there must be something. "Oh,
yes! The bird cage! 1t has to be
cleaned"
"I'm always afraid he'll get out
like he did the other day"
on your ieg?"
"I cut 1t on a piece Of glass"
Get me the iodine. I'll put some
on"
There wasn't any in the medi-
cine closet, so Nettie reported.
"oh, I remember. Mrs Smith
borrowed it. March right over and
tell Mrs Smith we want that
iodine - and tell her I didn't ex-
pect to have to send for it,
But Mrs Smith was out. and
Nettie had to 60 to the drug store.
While she was out her mother told
her to go to the bakers too. Six
blocks altogether in the sun. That
took about an hour.
Eventually the leg was fixed
and the bird-cage cleaned. The
process by Nettie's tempo took an
other hour.
"can I go over to Helen's and
play, mother?'
'No, not now. You should have
gone after lunch. Now the baby's
awake and have an errard to do.
You'll have to give him his bottle
and watch him till get back"
At five o'clock Mrs Smith re-
turned, hot and weary.
II meant to tell you to peel the
potatoes" she said. You might
have thought of 1t anyway. You
must learn to think of things"
"The baby cried the whole time
and I had to wheel him."
"Well then - set the table.

"Can get dressed first? Helen's

"Why don't you let Nettie help

night on the porch. shes old

3.-Yes, II the comparison is
made among people Of the same
social environment. Just now
feeble-minded people are rearing
nearly twice as many children as
college graduates, but among cole
lege graduates 1t is the most moral
who have the most children. DR.
r. A. Woods, In 1906, made the
discovery-then entirely new in
science--that those who rank r
high for moral character had tht
largest number OF children. In
other words, there Ii q powerful
natural tendency for moral charac-
ter, religious temperament and
general human goodness to sur
vive and furnish the parents for
the children Of the future.

Eating By Candle-Light

For summer suppers indors or
on the porch, there is real charm
in serving by candle light. You can
get such colorful tapers that they
fill into any floral table decoration
you may have. Or they are pretty
alone, just candles in attractive
mOldeps.

Editor, journal of the American
Medical Association, and of
Hygcia, the Health Magazine
In these days when everybody
takes the chance Of needing emer-
gency treatment because of the
use Of the automobile and wide
indulgence in sports and gardening,
it is we'll to have first-aid supplies
in the family medicine chest.
Among the materials needed are
adhesive tape of various widths,
sterile cotton, sterile gauze ban
dages, sterile gauze pads, and a
scissors which should be kept in
the medicine chest exclusively for
such purposes. You should also
have the ready-made combinations
of a piece of adhesive tape with
tiny piece of sterilized bandage
that, can be used to cover small
wounds after they have been
treated with iodine or mercuro-
chrome.
Most people should know that
the proper way to stop bleeding of
small wounds Is simply to press
upon them with a sterile piece of
gauze.
In case of very serious wounds
affecting arteries, and thereby diff
cult to control, it may be necessary
to put a tourniquet around the
limb. The tourniquet should be fas-
tened just tight enough to stop the
bleeding. An ordinary piece of
rubber tubing or narrow towel
tied and twisted with a stick will
serve most purposes satisfactorily.
The family medicine chest may
also contain aromatic spirits OF
ammonia which is sometimes given
when q prompt stimulant is needed
following fainting..
Half teaspoonful in water, for
a sudden fainting spell, is fairly
safe thing to give in most cases OF
this emergency.
The widely publicized milk of
magnesia and sodium bicarbonate,
or baking soda, are two prepara-
lions which can safely be kept In
the family medicine chest and
which are frequently advised by
physicians for alkaline purposes.
Some families keep paregoric as
a useful preparation in case of
cramps that affect women at peri
odic intervals.
Really these, and the others
have mentioned in previous arti-
cles, constitute practically all of

CHAPTER XVI
Elinor had never had such
session with her mother as
that on the drive home from MISS
Elias, She said again and again,
Mother, people are staring!
but 1t made no impression.
The chauffeur's face reddened
from the stares of men and
women in the cars they passed.
Idda,s voice was so loud and high
pitched il could be heard through
the glass. III pity that girl" the
chauffeur thought. The thought
was an old one that frequently
became a chant when the servants
were together.
Now Ida was laughing - a
shrill, sneering, hysterical laugh.
So far as the chauffeur could hear
there had been noN reply at all
from Miss Elinor.
He sympathized with the siri
even more deeply as he opened
the door Of the car little later.
Ida swept into the building, brit

anger. Elinor crept after her, her
face ia per-White.
For a moment" the chauffeur
told the butler later, II thought
she was going to fall-poor Kid!
Elinor's reactions were divided.
In one way she was glad that she
had done what she had. For an
other reason she deeply regretted
it. Ida had said, eyes narrowing
and glitetring. Think Of your
father! The way he has shaved
all his life. And now you-with
d tigaret! have burned every
chance he ever had for rest and
independence"
Elinor would even have lied to
give her father all that he de-
served. She would have lied
gladly and as we'll as she could.
But IL was too late.

looked at her. This realization
