1. Since for some strange req son my wife has never deserted me-yet-I have very little inside Information on this question. Still, after making several hundreds of seIfoEts to keep homes from being broken I should say that for husband to be taken by a rival causes more bitterness than for him simply to grow indifferent. In either case, if the wife still loves him, she feels she has lost her charm and has a sense of defeat; but it is easier to be defeated by mere loss of sentiment than by a rival.

RR YOUR
 CHILDREN
Hy Ollve Robetts BsrtoN !,

Napoleon is credited with re- marking once to young De Stael, Eighteen, and only the son of your mother!"
 For a century-and-a-hal ago and less, young fellows of eighteen were already making their mark. At twenty and twenty-five they were men of affairs. Not ''only the sons of their parents"
 However this is not discourse on young men, or not directly so. It is rather a few thoughts on the independence of smaller children.
 In our yard every year I watch the same robin. She comes up from the south as fat as butter ball and as shiny and red as Q baldwin.
 Two months later she is so thin she looks like tall sparrow. But there hopping along behind her, or even too lazy to hop, are 9 couple of large children double her size. She findS worms and bugs and rpns over and puts them in their months.
 Same With Cats and Humans.
 We've had a lot of cats, too. The kittens would hang around until they were almost as big as their mother, "eating her up," unless we gave them away.
 Which shows that children, fur red, feathered or smooth, never develop self reliance as long as they don't have to.
 Now, evidently nature intends ii this way to some extent. We know that little children need the shelter and emotional support of parent love. It is essential.
 But there is something that native seems to overdo in the heart of the American parent at least And that is the tendency to cling at any cost to the "baby" depend ence of their children.
 The mother wants to keep her children dependent and helpless; or so it would seem.
 Then one day when in their teens she realizes that her shoul- ders are tired. She may declare that now it is their turn to do and think and act for themselves, and no maybe about it.2 She expects miracle.
 Has "Baby" Attitude.
 She says to Anna, i've made you lovely clothes, and given you parties and done all the hard work. Now you get busy and go and learn shorthand and get a job."
 Anna may do so without any feeling of abuse, but nine times out of ten she will feel that the world is treating her badly. She is expecting the world to give her a soft spot. She also will have . "baby'' attitude toward any dis appointment or illustration. Poor Anna. It is not her fault. It is ours.
 We make cement without sand, or rather concrete without cement. Boys and girls by the thonsand are having the same experience. They reach an impasse and remain bitter for life.
 How kind it would be to con dition them to more self-help early. and to give them a foundation or reliance in their early years! Love can have the effect of mor- phia. How much better to make II a stimulant and use rubber instead of strings on our emotional aprons. Copyright 1884, NEA Service, Inc.

GLORIFYING
 YOURSELF
NBy AIicis Hsrt H:

I know a girl who spen ta good part of her younger years being ut. terly miserable about the size oN her feet. They are large, but so ia she; and if they were tiny thingss absolutely out of keeping with the rest of her body. think she'd have had much more cause for real wor. ". Now, however, she has stopped fussing and being self-conscious and consequently is much more charming, lovely person.
 It really is pretty silly to worry over physical characteristics about which you can do nothing. The smart thing to do is to make the best of them and then forget.
 If you have thin, stringy hairs get permanent, learn how to kep the waves in place and then concentrate on features that are more pleasing. If your hands are rather unattractive. use lotions and bleaches to@kep them smooth and white, be particular about manicures (neutral polish, of such animation in your face that no one will look down at your hands.
 In addition, get rid of any silly notions which may be hindering proper use of beauty preparations. If you have dry complexion, use cream. It won't grow hair on your skin, you know. If cream promoted growth of hair, there would be no bald-headed men in the world.
 If you can't afford astringents or tonics, don't resign yourself to large pores. After all, very cold water will help to close them. Be- sides, 1t stimulates circulation, often eliminating that dreaded muddy look.

Millicent was angry and very determined. She would do some thing for the forlorn, lovely child. And it was going to be exciting to pit her wits against her mothers. Carol was counted out. She hadn't particularly counted socially. be- cause sh ewas indifferent about parties and indifferent to everyone.
 But Mrs Kendall had power and some of the old standpatters would stick with her. People were lot of sheep, Millicent thought. All standing back, waiting for some one to put the sign and seal of approval on those who broke into their ranks.
 The next step in the campaign would be to convey to Ann very automatically that one couldn't leave ones handsome and rather defenseless husband at the mercy

 Later Ann meets PETER

 BENNETT, society girl. Without
 Reter's knowledge Valefia goes
 about with gay set. Ono night
 she attends . party at which a
 man is shot. Peter, learning how
 Fnlcfia has deceived him, tells
 her their engagement is at an end.
 The same day Ann breaks her 5 engagement to Tony. She and Peter meet in a restaurant and
 discuss their mutual unhappi.
 ness. When he asks her to mar ry him she agrees. They are mar. ried that night and set out for Florida.
 In the days that follow Peter is disturbed by the realization .that he is deeply attracted by his. pretty ''friend wife,. When they return home Ann is snubbed by all the Kendalls except Peters sister, MILLICENT.
 CHAPTER XVIII
 Millicent said to her mother, fAfter all, Grandfather won't live always. When he dies, most of the money will be Peter's. It might be better for the family if you were friends with his wife,"
 ''Is that why you're sponsoring Peters wife?" Carol asked, amused.
 ''No. it isn't the reason. I think she's darned sweet"
 sWell, maybe" Carol said. "But why all the bother? What does she need with us? She has Peters millions"
 You know as we'll as I do there are plenty of snobs who like to hurt newcomers, no matter how rich they are. And if Peters own family turns cold shoulder, she will be hurt lots of times. There was the Randolph reception last night. She wasn't asked because Mother is such a good friend of Mrs Randolph" Millicent's angry eyes met her mothers.
 well, really, Millicent-" Mrs Kendall laughed. After a moment she said, T never thought of sug- gesting to Margaret to have her. It didn't occur to me after that glimpse I had of her in Jerome's that she would be particularly in terested in social affairs"
 "You should see her now. You'd ,l.nt ipH help, 1 warn you I'll put her across without you. It won't be hard be- cause she has beauty and brains, and as Carol suggested-millions." "
 1T can't see what all the fuss is about" Mrs Kendall said, a little f1utter of anxiety in her voice. Peter goes out one night, angry at Valeria, picks up this girl some where and marries her. And then you expect me to make her a social success. I'd probably have to start teaching her table manners. Have you seen her eat?"
 Millicent was drawing on her gloves. 1T imagine her manners are better than mine, from what Two seen of her. All right then, I'm giving a reception and dance this week and everybody in town will be invited. Have I your re- grets?"
 "Indeed, yes," Mrs Kendall said gently. 'I really have a dreadful cold and Carol will be sure to want to Gtay and take care of me. The whole town! Imagine"
 II agree with you, Millicent. we are beastly," Carol said mischiev- ously. Its a reputation we have, and we must maintain it."

Sister MaryS Kitchen
BY MARY E. DAGUE NEA Service Staff Writer

Busy times come with these pre- Christmas days because so many of us must use our heads and fin- gers instead of money if we are to remember all our friends. with gifts, even small ones.
 Of course, the things than can be made in the kitchen come first to my mind and I think if you have only a little money to spend you can't do better than to make your own right in your personal. private kitchen.
 It is good thing to get your self speciality. have friend for instance who's making up died orange peel.
 Sets of four or eight in varied colors are charming gifts, especial ly for her hostess friends. The cost in infinitessimal for the bas- kets are made from a part of the fruit that usually is wasted.
 Recipe for Candying
 To make, cut peel from four or five oranges in long spiral strips, just is if you were pairing an ap- pie. Cover peel with water to which l teaspoon salt has been added. Bring to the boiling point and simmer 30 minutes. Drain. Cover with fresh water and boil until peel is tender, about half an hour, taking care not to break strips. Drain again.
 Use two sauce pans and put l cup sugar and 1-2 cup water in each. Bring to the boiling point and add green vegetable coloring to one batch of syrup and red vegetable coloring to the other batch. Divide peel and add half to each kettle. Simmer gently until syrup is nearly absorbed. Lift out of syrup onto oiled paper and let cool a few minutes. As soon as cool enough to handle, shape the warm peel into rose down onto small while cardboard bases, lightly covered with some of the syrup in which the peel was cooked. This syrup holds the roses in place. Use the pink tinted peel for flower center and the green peel for leaves at the base of the cup.
 Peel Should Be Moist Success in making these cups lies in having peel moist when syrup which not only sticks the petals together but makes them pliable and easily shaped. In planning a set of varied col- ors. 1t may help you to know that the uncolored peel makes a lovely orange-tinted rose. Grapefruit peel makes a delicate yellow rose. Other vegetable colorings may be used for other shades and the pinks may be made as light or bright as wanted.
 Another delicious way to use the strips of candied peel Is to cut them in slender pieces about two Inches long and dip in coating cho- coiate, using either bitter or sweet chocolate or . combination.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Not So East. Please.

'
 Following your "New Design for Dwindling" I have lost 15 pounds in one week. Weighed 169 when I started week ago, and this morn ing weighed 154 pounds. know my measurements are much less, but I didn't take them with the tape, so can't say just how much. Please advise whether I should continue :. (Mrs. D. S.)
 Answer-By all means, continue the vitamin ration for several months. But you may take a more liberal diet, or better, one or two extra meals dai1y-several small meals or snacks are always bet ter than one or two heavy meals. Reduction of from three to six pounds a week is usually most sat- isfactory in all respects.
