She needed action, something short of getting in touch with Ste. phen and letting him feel that she would be reasonable if he would come and talk things over. HeI eye fell upon the desk in the cor. ner, and she pulled up the small chair and began to write:
 'Dear Father and Mother" she put down, and went on, her pen moving rapidly. "You will
 be surpiscd to learn that after two years Step.ien and I have separated. When I tell you that the trouble arose over . woman and that stephen struck me i'm anger; you will sec how tnevit. able 1t is that we should part. Naturally, feel greatly disturb ed over the future, for I shall not take one penny from Ste- phcn. How could |? And I shan't come home under any circu1n- stances.
 Fortunately there is one way out. I have q friend, Rachel Bige1ow, who runs a small art shop and rental library com .bincd. Affairs aren't going so well with her just now and I'm sure she'd be willing to let me

 raise the money, shall do just that.
 'T shall he lonely; 1t will be terribly hard to return home at night to one small room, but anything Is better than going on with man who could do to me what Stephen has done.
 "But don't worry, dear ones I'll come through. MIRIAM"
 With the writing of the letter she felt less burdened.
 The little gray-haired woman went eagerly up the path to where Father stood perched on the top rung of a ladder painting a win dow trim. Here's a letter just come from Miriam," she called: "want to come down while we read it?"
 HE CAME DOWN AT

 He came down at once, his face bright and expectant. Suppose she's been extravagant again." he bought another new rug or something"
 Shouldn't wonder" They seat ed themselves on a garden bench under a blossoming apple tree and opened the gray envelope.
 He spoke first. Mother it can't be. stephen to strike our Miriam!'
 'Tt's hard to believe he'd do that. Why, remember so / well their wedding day. They came down this path and he looked at her as though she was his world and no one else alive in it." The tears rose quickly to her eyes and her lips trembled. '.-
 Don't mother, we'll do some- thing to help" They both then gazed about at their only posses sion, the/ garden they loved, the little home. But they had met and solved problems before.
 As Miriam packed her belong. ings she was remembering with az onizing vividness that last scene with Stephen when in raging anger he had walked out of the flat,

GREAT BIG HAT WITH GREAT BIG BRIM
Good Evening.

Mary bought wide-brimmed hat She wore it in the Easter parade, Guaranteed the best of straw And against the sun good shade. It set high, wide and handsome Almost mile around the rim; F. It really was quite feat To locate Mary meath it's brim. She wore it out one rainy day Perched at an angle chic, Up and off into the gutter it went, It happened just so quick Now Mary's gone back to a small close hat, To heck, she says, with style So now when sallying forth down street Her lid won't blow off mile.

PARIS STYLES

ris-(UP)-There is little or no choice in the matter. Either we shall have to conform to this hadical change in our silhouettes, or else be conspicuous by our ad- herence to the old order.
 Shoulders, at some of the dreslnaking houses, are in cfined to point outwards but without bulk. Waistlines are unanimously normal, and skirt lengths vary considerably from just below the knee for sports and street wear to clear to the ankle for midday and afternoon.
 There are lots of butterfly like puffs or clouds that stick out from the hips, the shoulders or upper arms. You cant honestly say that hats have any shape at all. They are simply pulled in here and there, fastened, twisted and placed on the head at any and every conceivable angle, but slop- ing toward if not over the eyes.
 Shoes are taking on new in- terest with the introduction of the high boot at Worth's which is laced up the sides with self coloreds silk ties or with bright red, green or yellow. Helm has shown sulphur yellow gaiters with. both flat and high-heeled shoes. These two items bid fair to presage new interest in feet generally which makes skirts important and essentially shorter when worn with the boot.

ITALY BATTLES
 TUBERCULOSIS
Drive to Start For 10000 Additional Hospital
 Beds

Rome (UP).-Over 20.000,00 persons are insured against con- sumption in Italy, and 5000 beds in special hospitals are set aside for the cure of such cases.
 It is now announced that a new drive is to be put into effect this year and next, which will bring the number of hospital beds up to 2e.00O in so hospitals.
 Fascist organizations here boast that nothing so ambitious has been attempted in any other country.
 Fascism has engaged in regu- lar campaign to drive consump- ton out of the country. and the weapon chiefly relied on is the obligatory insurance system TOW in force for employees. workmen and servants of nearly all ,cate- rories.
 In fact, nearly so per cent of the cases offered state assistance in attacks from the disease were treated in special hospitals and sanatoria. When the disease has reached a certain stage of devcl- opment removal of the patient be- comes imperative according to the policy at present being followed by the Fascist doctors.

 BEAR AND DEER
Artificial Respiration Ap= piled to Animals With
 Fine Results

Wenatchee.. Wash, (UP).-Arti- 'ficial respiration. applied to to young bear and deer which fall into Manson Hume. above Lake Chelan, revives about 75 per cent, Game Protector A. E. Schaller re- ported.
 A patrol crew along the con- crete canal rescues about 40 ami mals a year, Sehaller said. Most are lawns, with an occasional bear cub. The youngsters fall in when they attempt to follow their mothers in leap across. A 15- mile current sweeps them away, although the water is only three feet deep.-
 The artificial respiration in most cases revives the animals within an hour so they are able to run off into the hills again. Schaller said. It is applied in much the same manner as to human beings.
 Each patient, after being pulled from the water, is covered with a heavy blanket to prevent chill and placed so the water will drain from it's lungs.

SAVIOUR
 CHILDREN

God tried out Job with boila among other things. But any one with a real one, or especially series of them, is perfectly sure that God had nothing to do with it. Quite the opposite indeed.
 Thus my pity for the child who gets one after another. They hurt, boils do, and something should be done about them.
 Such a child should be hustled off to the doctor. What the doc- tor does is his own affair, but be sure he will do something. First of all he will make tests very likely and see what about diet. There may be something lacking in the food. Remember, please, that this will be no understimation of the actual fod he eats. The child may be getting every elc- ment that he needs. His ability to take care of certain things and assimilate matter altogether.
 BOils Are Warnings
 There are mysterious ways of building up a child's resistance and giving him the power to ab- sorb the good of what he eats. When this happens and his blood stream is chemically balanced, there will very likely be better ment of his condition. But all this decidely in the province of the medical profession. The boils are merely warnings-symp- toms of something that needs looking after.
 Occasionally a child will have one boil, or two-perhaps even three. Then quietly the sema- phore of trouble draws in its sig nals and the painful swellinss stop. Whatever the temporary up- set was, it is all over. However, u is still best to talk to the doctor about it. Help at his sage may save laer suffering. If they are merely a flash in the pan there IS no harm done in seeing the Nmedl- cal man. anyway.
 Salt Poulicc Urged
 You will wont to know about treating the occasional boil. When it appears, all the neighbors wll. have ideas. Soap poulice, bacon poulice, hot bread poultice, or what have you. When it comes to a head. this pet, youll go blithely for a needle, very likely, and jah it to let out the pus.
 But if you ask the doctor or the nurse. They will tell you that the best way is to Keep the boil damp with salt water until II comes to head and breaks itself. Use about one tablespoon of salt to pint. Bandage loosely to keep the pad on. Keep 1t con stantly moist.
 However, If 1t doesn't behave and come to head, the doctor will have to open it. The sensi- ble course is not toFfool with any boil on child or adult. In hot weather--well, things often go wrong when the sun is high, and home surgery is always risky business.

OBLITERATION OF TELAN-
 GIECTASES.

Never mind-I have Webster right here and he says it meansAum, or Webster falls down again. He'll all wet. Telangiectases means dilatation of the distant . blood vessels. Capillaries, careless doc tors call 'em. They are not capil- laries, of course. You can't see capillary without microscope. They are the smallest veins, ven- ules. Lots of women are embras- rassed by teangiectases. They pre- vent many fetching bathing suit from making a stir. Plenty of men, too, have these minute broken" blood vessels over cheeks, bridge of nose or forehead.
 Something can be done about it, certainly. The unsightly venules may be obliterated by much the same method as that which is so successful for obliterating varicose veins. Chemical injection of the tiny venules obliterates the blem- ish and is safe. It does not cause scar formation and gives satis. factory cosmetic results.
 By means of special illumina- tion,. a powerful binocular loupe and extremely fine needles it is is possible to inject these minute veins, so that the solution shall come in contact with their en- dothelial lining and not with the tissues external to the veins. Off, ten q vessel smaller in diameter than the needle itself can be en- tered with the point fthe needle, owing to the elasticity of the ven- ule wall. The injection of one or two venules in group of spider web formation is sufficient in some cases to cause gradual disappear ance of the entire group.
 No specialist is necessary for such treatment. Any good physi- clan who will equip himself with the essential illumination. bino- cular ioupe and fine needles. can treat telangiectases successfully.
 This obliteration of telangiectases is practically refinement of the now well known chemical obliter- alton of varicose veins, whether in the legs, or in the form of hemorrhoids, or. in other situa- tions.
 Formerly there was only the prospect of lifetime wearing of elastic stockings or similar SUD- porters with the alternative of un- dergoining formidable of under going a formidable operation re- moving the enlarged veins. To- day physicians everywhere are giving their patients the advan- tage of this modern treatment, and I hear nothing but praise and gratitude from their patients. When unwary patients go to self commended specialists" for such treatment, then I hear some sad stories. But people who deal with quacks must expect to have un- pleasant experiences.

Am I?" Boots wanted to know, arrested by this view of her.
 Yes. You're always scrambling IF or out of car or rushing to swim or something" he complain Cd in his agreeable deep voice. T stopped by to ask you to come and have tea with me the other day. You were out-the beach or some- place, the colorcd woman said"
 Linda had never told her. Not that it mattered So he had stopped by,' had he?
 Suddenly Boots, warmed by his friendlincss, his obvious desire to please, was conscious of d de- sire to confide in him. He was the perfect confidant, a man of the world, sophisticated, travelled, tol- erant
 No. she couldn't do that. She daren't tell him or anyone! Stated badly. it sounded too fantastic.
 There's d man 1 know he hasn't any money or any back ground or education. But I'm in love with him. He Wants me to marry him, go away, live a sort of gypsy life. At home I'm at stand still. I'm persona non grata with the younger crowd, right now. I'm unhappy. l want to begin to live. It's terrible to be young and bot tied up What shall 1 do?"
 An, she knew what he would say what any intelligent, dispassionatc person would say. Wait-carve out some sort of career for yourself- be brave. be patient. Life won't pass you by!
 It was easy to say that-easy to counsel patience, courage. Mean- while Russ waited. with his dogged look of devotion, his calm, fiatter- ing need of her. Boots felt what every girl blossoming into rosy womanhood feels-thc urgent need of being wanted. Ignorant of the forces working within her, she was conscious only of great desire to do things. to be all that was lovely and desirable, adequate in any situation, however, difficult.
 She could, she thought, have been a pioneer woman, gallant in danger, resourceful in difficulties. Why her own great grandmother, at her age. had been married for
