brushes she had given him once for Christmas.
 once Mrs Meyers looked across at the girl and said, choking, Its good of you to be here. He'd he'd want you-if he knew"
 Gale rose and went to the older woman's side. If only there was something we could dol" she said.
 "Yes, if only there was-"
 The long hours dragged on. To- ward morning the hush was broken by a birds song. The caroling notes soaring gaily, seemed brutal. How could there be gaiety in the world with Steve close to death? / A little later Jasper Wilkins answered his questions. No, there was no change so far as they could tell. Gale asked Jasper if he would like some coffee and offered to make 1t for him. He said no, If she'd show him where 1t was kept he'd make the coffee himself.
 Gale went to the kitchen and presently was back. The silent waiting went on.
 It was just before dawn that there was slight motion under the counterpane. Mrs Meyers lean- ed forward. "Steye!" she said. speak to me. Oh, say something!" Slowly Steve's eyelids fiickered, opened. For a moment he stared blankly, then recognition came into his eyes,
 "Mother-"
 His mother said, "Yes, darling 2" There were tears on her cheeks but she was smiling. What is it? Is there anything l can do, anything you want-?"
 Mother" The whisper was stronger now. Tell Gale"
 But she's here, Steve!" Mrs Meyers turned toward the girl. NSee-she's right here" Gale said, "Oh. Steve" and oould not go on.
 "You're-all right?' "Yes, of corse. And so are you. At least you're going to be. Oh, Steve, you must hurry and get we'll! We've need you so!'
 Steve's lips moved faintly but no words came, Gale, on her knees now, went on swiftly, ''Steve. you asked me to marry you. I-I want to have the wedding right away. To- morrow if the doctors says it's all right. We'll be married here in this room. I'll get the lfcense-I'll see about everything!" Steve, against the pillows, smiled. ''To-morrow," he said. Mother did you hear?"
 "Yes. darling. And I'm so happy for you, Happy for both of you! I'm" She bent her head so that he could not see her tears. |' "To- o-morrow-" Steve repeated, and then moment later, Tired. Guess I'll sleep-"
 That's right" It was as though he were child again. His mother went on soothingly. "Try to get your rest. It's what you need. You want to get all the rest you can"
 The words drifted to an end. Steve's eyes were closed now. The coverlet, over his chest, rose and fell. Slowly. Faintly. A lock of his hair had fallen on his forehead and it gave him little-boyish look. Steve's face was serene and peace- full. The coverlet rose and fell slow CT now. The motion was scarcely noticeable.
 Moments ticked by. The bird in the tree-top sang once more. The sky grew lighter. tinted with a rosy flush. And Steve Meyers spirit departed this restless world.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Stove without Flue.

Using two-burner kerosene heat CT in small apartment. It has no fiue pipe. I suffer much from dull headache and wondered if the stove is the cause. (Mrs. F. H. M.)
 Answer-The air of the room becomes vitiated or exhausted by any fuel burning in it, without a pipe or chimney to carry off the products of combustion. Coal, wood, gas. oil, kerosene, gasoline, used. Then, too. there is always a chance that some carbon monoxide may pollute the air, and that is exceedingly injurious to breathe, even in the slightest traces, For comfort and safety every such stoce should have proper connec- tion with the chimgey Hue. Where. open gas plates are used. at least one window in the room should all ways be kept open while the gas is burning. Pollution of the air by carbon monoxide very likely causes the headache you describe.
 Lost, Some Cotton
 On a recent very rainy, damp day placed some cotton i'll my TISHt car, aS l nave LOuHu tnut this seemed to prevent sort of ringing in the ears in such wealth. CT. After had put 1t in the ear realized the amount was too small and tried to remove it.. but was unable to get hold of it.. It is still there. Is it likely to cause trouble later on? (Miss R. E.)
 Answer-You should never in- sert anything in the ear without medical advice. You had better have the physician examine the ear and remove the cotton if 1t is there.

 We decided we'd better go back and look. Sure enough. there he was-lyin' on the floor just where he'd fallen. He was rolled over sort of. and there was blood on the side of his face. His eyes were shut but his heart was beatin'.
 "Joe went back and got some ot the others to help and we rigged up the stetcher we brought him home on. We Knew he was hurt bad and one of the boys went for Doctor Carr" t&
 That was the story. Doctor Carr had been at work behind the closed door ever since. =.

Mrs. W. A. D. offered the follow ing suggestion in which Mrs. l.. B. happened to concur:
 Lie on the back and slowly lift cramped leg to an angle. This nev- CT fails to reliave cramp and straighten out the kink.
 Some victims of these cramps find 1t necessary to get out of bed and stand or walk about the floor on their toes for a few moments.
 Others remain in bed and press the toes firmly against the foot board of the bed for a few seconds.

 Paris (UP)).-Gathsr ye full ness where ye will---back or front but leave the hips sleek and smooth. .,
 This is the general rule to be followed as far as skirts are con cerned, and whether you prefer front or back fullness should be guided by the shape of your own
 The same rule can be applied to blouses. Many of the new ones shown by Paris houses of haute couture feature front fullr ness by means of shocking, gatn' era, shirring and intricate tuckinE, while the backs remain smooth and uptrimrhed. Other houses ad- vocate back fullness in blouses. both for suits and the blouses ol dresses, using the same means ot gathering fullness, and letting the front surfaces remain somewhut skinny and trimmed with novel buttons or embroidery.
 One reason for this emphasis on either back or front fullness is because of the sleeves, which are highly interesting because of the fact that they are usually cut in one piece with the back or front and are themselves quite full at the elbow or wrist, The fullness of the blouse al- lows the same fullness to extend into the sleeve either at back or front and thereby give the de- sired emphasis on the arm.

SAYS NAILS JUSTIFY JEW-BATT-
ING BIZ POINTING TO U. S.
LYNCHINGS

New York, Jan. 18.-In a letter to
President Roosevelt scoring lynching
and urging him to use his influence to
end it, a noted American woman liv-
ing in Geneva, Switzerland, writes:
"The 'Nazi' justiies his persecution
of Jews by reference to the American
attitude to Negroes; and the abuses
in concentration camps and prisons,
which shame mankind, are interrelat-
ed with excuses in other countries.
The writer is Miss Emily G. Balch,
international Secretary Of the Wo-
mems international League for Peace
and Freedom, and a copy of her let
ter to the President has been sent to
the National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People.
"The discredit abroad, she says,
brought upon the country by such
occurrences must be, and doubtless is,
present to the American mind, even
if only i~mperfectly realized as to it's
extent and intensity. But it is not on
this ground that we appeal to you,
Mr.. President, to use your personal
influence to ensure that every possible
means to put an end to lynching is
employed to the utmost We do,
however, want to point out that,
apart even from the question Of hu-
man suffering, every example of law
l~essness and violence in one country
reacts in every other and intensifes
existing tendencies to resort to in
tolerance, cruelty and tyranny"

predetermined citizen should see this
show 1t is a national show, a great
thing for Omaha"

you to urge upon Congress the need
of federal legislation against lynch
ing. Yesterday Jerome Wilson was
lynched in a Louisiana Jail without

discredit upon the federal government
