with a humping heart, 1
walked out of the building with
her and along the street, and
invited her into tea-room for a
cup of tea to hear what the
great secret was all about.
"She told me an awful hard
luck story, and borrowed $40
from me. At the time I was
pleased by this mark of her
confidence, but as weeks slipped
into months I found myself less
pleased, and now that have
asked her for it, she says she's
sorry, but is unable to meet this
obligation, APRIL FOOL"
You've involved yourself in
a very unpleasant complication,
my dear young man, particularly
as you cannot garnishee a Gov
ernment employees salary. You
will have to keep on asking her
for the $40 until she pays, to
escape this unpleasant attention.
And I'll refrain from saying:
Let this be q warning 10 you.
1.-TWO Timing"
Dear Miss Fairfax:
1--WE confessed our deep love
for each other ever since we've
been going together. AS for me,
I would die for him.
Recently found letter he
had written to another girl. He
told her he was heart-broken
because she hadn't written to him
for five days. He also told her
of his everlasting love. His let
ter was written so sincerely that
any girl would believe it.
"And all the time he made me
believe he really loved me. Shall
I let him know have discovered
his perfidy, or give him up COM
pletely? I'm 18. he's 81.
PEGGY"
In your place, I'd dismiss this
amateur Cazanova with a laugh.
Some boys are like that, and it's
too bad to take them seriously.
Try to be amused over this cpl
sode. It's not worth a heart
throb.

We are too prone to let good
things go too fast-things that are
tried and true. Or at least some
of us are. Women of taste usually
prefer something that does not
shout Of its recent origin, unless
1t has the earmarks Of fashion
so good that it can be expected to
stay awhile.
Think of some Of our best fash
ions Of this year, swagger coats,
Persian lamb, military hats,
Renaissance colors. They are all
developments through two or
three seasons. None Of them
sprung full grown into this
autumn of 1885. They are all
good because they've won heir
way, season by season.
Good Things Last
OF course sometimes things do
make q remarkable record in a
single season. A color, for In
stance, that hasn't been talked Of
much will suddenly emerge from
obScurity and be the seasons best,
But practically always you will
find some fashion authority, some
watcher Of the trends, who told
us all along that the color would
be good.
Accessories do so much for our
costumes these days that they,
too, come and go, Just as fast or
as slowly as do clothes fashions
And you'll notice that they follow
the same trends. Think of the
monk shoe, that was worn two
years ago by a few brave souls,
and that is now popular every
where.
COlOrS Endure
If you'll review the color chart
Of today, you'll find it is pretty
much the same that would be
offered you by any good store OF
fashionist, in, August or Septem
ber. The answer is not that there
isn't anything new, but that the
colors brought out then were so
good that they've lasted.
The best suggestion can make
is to decide what you want at the
beginning Of the season, with due
consideration, planning and deep
thought. Then buy it, in the best
quality you can. You'll get better
workmanship, faster colors, better
fabrics. You'll be happy in the
clothes all season, for they will
have real good looks If you've
invested enough, and you will stay
in fashion all season, too.

Cider Frappe

cup sugar
2 cups water
4 cups sweet cider
2 cups orange juice
Juice of two lemons
Mint cherries.
Boil sugar and water together
for five minutes; add cider, orange
and lemon Juice. Strain and when
cold freeze to frappe consistency
This amount serves eight to ten,
Mrs. Latham suggests serving
as a first course, in sherbet cups
with a garnish Of mint cherries
This would also be a fine accom-
paniment to the meat course. But.
to my notion, 1t would be a perfect
way to taper off rich dinner, and
I would find it most tempting as
a dessert.

Health
Nose Protects
From Germs
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. d.

Dy AONfAGN NAGEND4SGNAGNNS GAAs O'
If you are always worrying
about how many germs there are
in the air, and wondering what
they will do to you If they get in
side the body, or what antiseptic
you must use to kill them, you had
better stop.
Let the body take care Of itself
in that respect. It has been doing
so very efficiently for a number OF
years. An illustration Of this is the
work Of the mucous membrane Of
the nose.
Into the nose go an unparalleled
number Of germs every day, in
fact, every minute. In a small
amount Of dust collected upon
dish from the street or the air on
windy day, $1,000 colon bacilli
and 42,500 streptococci can be
found.
Certainly since these are in the
air they must be breathed into the
nose. Why do they not cause
disease? What becomes Of them?
Disappear
Well, the fact is that they disap'
pear from the nose almost as fast
as they are sucked in. The only eX.
PLANTATION we have of the phenome-
non is that the membrane inside
the nose secretes one Of the most
powerful antisepticS known in the
world.
Three recent investigators found
that if they deliberately sprayed
large numbers of germs into the
nose Of a healthy person, 80 to 95
per cent Of tn e m disappeared
within five or ten minutes. In
some cases they kept reintroduc-
ing cultures of bacteria into the
nose every 80 minutes and the dis
appearance took place just the
same. There seemed to be no evi-
dence of exhaustion Of the disin-
fecting mechanism.
An interesting light is thrown
by the change that occurred in
the ability Of the nose to accom-
plish its destruction Of bacteria
under different conditions Of tenn
perature. When the human being
who was being experimental with
was in a cold room no reduction in
the noses capacity for disinfec'
tion occurred. When, however, the
subject was in hot room (95 F.,
humidity 90 per cent?, it required
IS minutes to an hour for the dis
appearance of the bacteria.
This latter fact may be OF some
use to those who like to explain
exactly how the most common and
most mysterious Of all diseases, the
common cold, is caused. 1t looks as
if warm, badly ventilated rooms
are the best places to "catch" cold
Questions From Readers
E. w. W.: What causes nervous
ness? Are certain kinds of food
hard on the nerves? Are smoking
and drinking coffee hard on the
nerveS?"
Answer: The term nervousness
is too vague to allow Of answer to
these questions. It is possible that
you mean tremor Of the muscles
in which case it may be said that
there is no special kind Of food
which causes it, but that tobacco
or alcohol might do so. The kino
of nervousness that coffee induces
is sleeplesSness and general motor
lrestlessness.

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
II am engaged to young man
and we go out with his sister,
who is much older than I am, and
some of her girl friends, quite
often. have been criticised for
entering the car before them.
"I think that this is correct, but
my friends says that it isn't. She
says that should enter the car
after she and her friends have
entered. Who Is correct?" r.
It doesn't seem very gracious
of me to disagree with you after
you wrote me such a charming
and friendly letter, but do hon.
estly think that it would be more
mannerly Of you to let your
fiance's sister and her friends en-
ter the car first.
Since you are the fiancee Of the
young man who owns the car, you
are in a way the hostess when you
and he invite friends to drive with
you. AS the hostess it would be
courteous of you to let the women
guests enter first. Then, since, as
you say, your fiance'S sister is
much older than" you are, allow
ing her to precede you into the
car would be an added courtesy.
And even if we do not agree
with the idea Of our guests being
so frank as your guests have
been, still, if they are that frank.
it is better manners on our part
if we bow to their suggestions.

Proper Reply

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
when meeting a young man
who expresses his pleasure at hav-
ing met you, what is the proper
reply? as"
First we say THANK you" when
a person makes this pleasant
comment. Then, since this
seems a little unfinished, little
as if we acknowledge that the
pleasure is only on the part Of the
other person, we add, II am very
glad to have met you, too, Mr..
Allen" or ut is a great pleasure
to have met you too," or Thank
you. It has been such a joy to
talk with you about Chicago Cor
some topic on which you have had
a special chat.)"
Fork or Spoon?
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
(which is correct, to eat a
cantaloupe with a fork or a
spoon? "LILLIEh
Either Is correct. it is just
which you find more convenient.
II a half of the cantaloupe is
served, usually we find a spoon
more convenient. If a slice Of
melon is served, any kind Of
melon, many people find the fork,
or the knife and fork, more con-
venient.
In Europe the small knife and
fork, the fruit knife and fork, are
always placed with a slice of
melon, and many times this is the
service that we find here.

acquitting her of kidnap conspiracy
charges.
DIR. Ludwig o. Muench embraced his

County Rogers, one of her numerous
attorneys; did the same to embarrassed
Sheriff E. S. Haycraft, and shook
hands with the jurors.
The red-haired, 43-year-old former
St. Louis society matron charged in
connection with the 1881 ransom kid
naping of DR. Isaac D. Kelley, wealthy
st. Louisan. walked from the Audrain
County court room with head erect,
ignoring a crowd of curious men and
women.
Statement Is Concise.
At the Office of one of her local
counsel she issued a brief statement:

That's all
The Jurors, 10 of them farmers,
would not disclose how many ballots
they took during their more than five
hours of actual deliberations. They
received the case at 4:20 pm. Friday
and brought in their decision at 9:59
am. today.
The trial, which began here last
Monday, was brought from st. Louis
County on a change Of venue. Two
abductors of the physician, Angelo
Rosegrant and Felix Mcdonald, have
been convicted and sentenced to long
prison terms: Bart Davit awaits trial;

s15-pound former justice of the peace
and admitted associate of gangsters,
as its chief witness, contended she
was the woman known as "Goldie,
who met with other alleged members
of the gang in Fiedlers resort to plot
the abduction. Fielder testified she
suggested the physician as a victim
and agreed to point him out to the
actual abductors.
To the entire State case Mrs
Muench, sister of Judge Ernest M
Tipton of the Missouri Supreme Court,

She said she knew Rosegrant very
casually through his professional
contacts with her husband, that she
knew none of the other defendants,
that she never had been in the st.
Louis County resort operated by
Fielder and that she never was called
"Goldie" in her life.
Did Not Claim Baby.
In her factual denial of the States
case, however, she did not, deliberately
or by mishap, claim as her own the
"gift of God' baby boy whose birth
she announced seven weeks ago after
% years of childless marriage.
In a habeas corpus suit. set for
hearing in the st. Louis Court Of Ap-
