Writer Pens Gripping Tale
Or a 1893 Courtship

"Oh, I'm so glad you're at
home, Jim! I'm at q place
called Joy1and. Do you know
where it iS?"
yes"
well, will you come here
and get me, Jim?"
You know I will. But what
are you doing there? Are you
alone?"
"Yes. And please hurry, Jim
How long will it take you
to be here?"
"Ten minutes" said Jim and
hung up.
Sharlie turned away from the
telephoro and made up her
face before the mirror on the
opposite wall. Then she sat
down on the only chair in the
hot bright little room and
smoked a cigarette.
BY that time eight of the ten
minutes we're gone. She opened
the door Of the dressing room
and stepped out into the crowd
at the top of the steps.
The man was waiting for
her. She went up to him with
a smile.
81 hated to take you away
from here" she said to him.
1T was lovely Of you to offer
to take me home. but I couldn't
think of letting you do it. So
I just telephoned a friend Of
mine and he's coming for me-"
She started for the stairs.
"Good night" she said, looking
back over her shoulder.
The man took q step or two
after her. "Wait a minute!"
He pulled a card from one Of
his pockets and Scribbled
something on it. Then he
held it out to her.
Call me up some tine when
you feel like dancing again." he
said. I'm mighty sorry you
wouldn't let me drive you home
tonight. Il would have en-
joyed doing it."
He looked so pleasant and
cheerful standing there, smiling
at her, that she told herself
she had been a fool to get
panicky and telephone for Jim
Barnum.
"I'll be here next Wednesday
night" she said, "at half past
eight"
It'll meet you" He took her
arm and they went down the
stairs side by side.
Jim was just getting out Of
his car when they reached the
street. He stood beside it, look

CHAPTER XIV.


Only one thing was clear to
Sharlie at that moment. :.
She must get rid Of this
man just as soon as she could.
But how was she to do it?
"If I get on a street car
he'll follow me, sure as Fate"
she thought, "and he'll get off
when / do"
A moment before the thought
Of walking down Milton Street
with him had not frightened
her. But now she suddenly
remembered the dark vacant
lot between the corner and her
grandmother's house. A high
sign-board hid it from the
street and there was a voting
booth made of corrugated iron
In the middle of it. No,
she was not going to walk
down Milton Street with this
strange man at 10 or II o'clock
on a dark night like this one.
No, indeed!
She was not going to get
Into his car and let him drive
her there, either. and there
was no money in her purse for
q taxicab.
Suddenly, as she stood be-
side him, a bright thought
struck her.
There was just chance that
the. Barnums had returned
from their drive to Shelbyville.
She would telephone their flat
and ask Jim to come to JOY
land and get her in his new
car!
Lets go back and have one
more dance. They're play
Ing The Song of India" she
said to the man beside her.
"It's only 10 o'clock"
They went up the stairs to-
gether. At the top Sharlie
left him.
I'm going into the dressing
room for a minute" she said.
"1'll be right back. Wait for
me-"
There was a telephone in the
dressing room. On the wall
near it, girls had written names
and numbers and addresses
with their lipsticks or eyebrow
pencils.
She gave the Barnums' num-
ber and in a few seconds Jim's
voice came over the wire to
her:
Hello"
Hello, JIM" said Sharlie.

tricks and 9 playing tricks. Y

z will bid 3-Diamonds, that Y
must raise to 5-Diamonds. One
club trick and one diamond
trick will be lost, yielding an
easy game. BY leading three

able to ruff the third lead of

Y may bid 7-No Trumps, which

of Y and B be exchanged. Bid.

Y, 2-No Trumps; z, 3-Dia-
monds; Y, 3-Hearts; z, 3-No
Trumps, to show that he is
bidding short suits; Y, 4-Hearts.

rounds of Spades. AS he hopes,

Along with other Victorian
revivals, quilting has again
come into vogue. Old-fashioned
patchwork quilts are appearing
on fine old maple or walnut
beds, in homes of elegance or
modesty, it makes no differ
ence which. New-fashioned ap-
plique quilts are used on beds
and in rooms of any and many
periods. Smart young women
are sewing squares when they
are dummy at bridge, or they
are staying home nights to put
a few more flowers on their
appliqued quilt. Our mothers
who learned the art of quilt
ing many years ago have re.
vived it, and are giving their
services to charitable organiza-
tions, quilting for those who
haven't the time or inclination.
Convenient Package
Both patchwork and appli.
qued quilts are smart, and are
about equally popular. Those
who have been making patch
work quilts think they are
much easier, but other women
prefer buying a package, all
ready, with the applique pieces
ready to cut out and sew on,
and with the design stamped
on the top Of the quilt. The
quilting. after the work Of put
ting together is done, isn't hard

to do either. as there is special
strong quilting thread out, and
you can buy a good frame very
ineXpenSively, which folds into
a small space when you're not
using it. The quilting bee will
no doubt be revived soon, with
all the old-time Sociability that
used to accompany them.
Many Lovely Designs
We're showing a drawing Of
the double wedding ring quilt,
a favorite pattern. 1t comes
in a package, stamped and
ready to applique, or you can
make it patchwork fashion If
you prefer. It is one Of about
IS designs you can choose
from in one downtown store.
Other popular patterns are
Marie Antoinette, Rose Of
Sharon, Rose Trellis and China
Plate. The Double Wedding
Ring pattern, complete with
top and pieces to put on, Is
priced $3.50, and the other
packages are $2.95 to $3.50.
You can also get transfer pat

10c and up.

Secrets Of Health
By DR.. Louis A. Bisch

Always select the cheerist,
sunniest and best ventilated
room for the expectant mother.
Simple furniture, rugs rather
than nailed carpets, metal in
stead Of a wooden bed, and
with the mattress high, are
ideal. The number of decora-
tive hangings should be reduced
to a minimum, although it is
highly important that the gen.
eral tone of the room be pleas
ing as well as restful to the
nerves.
Plenty Of towels, sheets and
pillow cases should be ready for
the occasion. In addition 20
yards of sterile gauze, two yards
of heavy muslin for binders,
several pounds of sterile cotton,
two rolls Of adhesive tape (wide
and narrow, a bed pan and a
clinical thermometer, as well
as olive oil, cold cream and the
like are necessary.
Regarding the layette for the
baby, this may be as fine and
as extravagant as one wishes;
and most expectant mothers
have a lot of fun preparing
for it with their own hands
months in advance. Certain ar
ticles, however, are indispen-
sable. The one recommended
by DR.. L. w. Sauer, and which
follows, seems to fit the re-
quirements perfectly.
/. Three to six half-wool,
double.breaSted undershirts.
9 Three tn SYY COTTON or silk
