After dinner what did you do?" Marian's tone was @ smoothly sar- castle tone. Take the kids home and sit beside them while they napped?" Marian did not want to quarrel, she wanted to put her arms around Dan and beg him never to leave her again. The anger seemed to be only on the surface of her mind. Underneath lay chilly fear.
 Dan swung about, glaring at her. "It's none of your"-his jaw tight ened as he bit down on the words. we fooled around the club, then I took the two older kids to a movie-a Western"
 Big hero stuff riding and shooting" Her anger might be only on the surface of her mind but 1t was white hot. That's about your speed, Dan." She was half stunned by her own insolence powerless to stop, The scathine words said themselves. Dan said nothing, there was a white line around his mouth.
 with rage scorching her blood Marian lazily patted back a yawn 'You have never grown up, Dan, she said. "You are still little boy, playing with other little boys l It's just my hard luck that l ex' pected something better of you"
 Dan scowled and answered nothing. His self-control further enraged Marian. She would make him quarrel She would lash ane prick and scorn until he could nc | longer remain silent A battle meant release for her pent-ul emotions. Her quivering nerv' ends demanded action, any kint of action. :.
 Had Dan forcibly taken her 1T his arms, she would have cried 1 out and been soothed. Both hand' remained in his pockets. Fran tically she goaded him.
 You're so snug, Dan," she saie witheringly, "so sure of yoursel its written all over your face Dan Hardness can do no wront Ines a spineless worm who nevc turns"
 Catching her by the elbows, Dal stood her on her feet. He hel' her, facing him. His eyes blaze' into hers.
 "I've wanted to turn for lon time," he said, his lips scarcel moving. Now you have made very easy for me"
 He let her go, caught up his hal and left the apartment.

CHAPTER XIV

The afternoon passed slowy' Marian shortened a slip, brushed and aired her clothes, carefully packed away her summer office dresses. Packing them into a tissue lined box, she wondered why she was doing it. She never kept things from one season to the next; the styles changed and there was al- ways something wrong with them. Her theory was to buy good things, just a few, wear them hard and dis card them. There was rumor that Marian was the best-dressed woman in the Loop and she wanted to make the rumor fact.
 Nevertheless, she packed the dresses in Manning box. Perhaps she would wear them next year, per- haps she'd economize bit. Who cared If she were the best-dresseo woman in the Loop? Certainly not Dan. She was a little hurt about Dan.
 At 5 o'clock he had not returned and she went to help Dolly dress for her date with Randy Means Dolly was calmly pressing the pink dress.
 "What time is he coming?" Mar ian asked.
 fSix-thirty."
 "But you haven't started to get ready" Marian would have al. lowed hours for preparation.
 IIl have plenty of time" She siggled youthfully. This is fun Marian. It takes me back - away back"
 q should think you'd be thrilled to death." Marian tried not to bs envious. "An attractive man, din. ner, dancing, a drive through ths mysterious dark"
 You make it sound terribly dramatic. I'm really too surprised to be thrilled. Why should h' want to see me again?"
 Marian wondered why. She said "Youre a pretty nice person t Dolly"
 Maybe. But I'm at my bes doing things for people. If Rand! had a few socks to be darned, ol dress tie to be tied" sh' sighed at her own lacks. T don scintillate very we'll"
 "He's probably little tired 0 that sort of thing"
 Dolly put her dress on hange T don't feel quite right abou Carma. He was supposed to lik her. She needs him and I don't"
 "Let Carma look after herself

Marian thought. That's where Dolly has him. He felt her indif. ference and that's what attracted him. When she falls he'll move on to someone else"
 Marian waited while Dolly bathed and dressed. The apartment was SO small that they were able to keep up A constant flow of conversation. The door stood half open and, at every sound. Marian listened for Dan. Her hurt was beginning to turn to anger. Dan had no right to treat her Ike that. The least he could do was to give her a little of his companion- ship on Sunday. .
 she helped Dolly with the last touches, delicate pink fingernaii polish, a triple string of Marian's s pearls around her white throat. She pinned up Dolly's curls, ieav. ing them loose, the style seemed to suit her though it wasn't smart, she improved on the shade of hp- stick and rouge. :.
 Dolly wore a pink felt hat. It was wide, the sweep Of the nrlin most becoming. Her sandals were soft gray kid, her coat gray, broad shouldered and short. Marian who always affected dark blue or black, gazed at her in wonder Dolly might not be as smart or tailored, but there was certainly a lusciousness about her, and an appealing sweetness. Marian, still in the robe ano slippers, wandered back to her own apartment when 1t was time for Randy to arrive. She heard him come, heard them laugh com panionably as they went down the stairs, and depressing loneliness closed in on her.
 Dan arrives at 8 o'clock, his skin ruddy from the wind and sun. Mar ian did not look up from her maga- zine when he came in.
 Hello" he said, humping his golf bag into the hall closet. Gee I've had swell day" He seemed to bring part of the crisp outdoors with him.
 That's nice. I've been bored te death"
 "Too bad" He bent over ano she turned a cool cheek for hlS kiss. Thought you'd be glad te be rid of your pest" ',
 Curiosity made her ask, Where have you been all day?"
 Played golf from g until l Had dinner at the club with Amy Ellen ard the kids. There's a swel bunch of kids, I'm telling you"
 Marian'S brows arched. "AmI Ellen came out for dinner?"
 "Oh, no - she played with us That littlest kid" Dan broke int an amused laugh.
 But Amy Ellen was up mos of the night"
 "She and Bill play golf ever! Sunday morning"
 l oh"
 "The oldest boy caddied for us He's a grand youngster - grand A maid brought the other thre' out in time for dinner"
 Marian didn't mean to say, T would have been nice if they hat asked me for dinner" but sh heard herself saying it.
 Amy Ellen did speak of it."
 "Well?"
 Great guns, Marian"-his good natured grin vanished in a frow . you haven't wanted to go any where on Sunday for years" Maybe I've never been aske to go to the right places" He voice dropped rapidly to the free2 ing point.
 'I'm sorry, but look - you al ways sleep until noon - it take you two hours to dress - the clu is IS miles out"
 T see - too much trouble"
 He flung away from her. Hands il his pockets, he stared from the win dow.

CORRECT POSTURE
 PROMOTES HEALTH
Parents Should Be Guided By Rules in Teaching
 Children

Parents can be certain of better success in teaching good posture to their children if they have good postural habits themselves. A per- son with good posture sits and stands erect, with head high, chest out, chin in, shoulder blades and abdomen flattened, advises the weekly bulletin of the State Depart ment of Health. Imitation of action and attitude, is @ common tendency in children. Correct posture on the part of parents will thus go far toward the establishment of sim liar habit in child. If good postu- ral habits are learned early they will probably be maintained throughout life and will lead not ony to an im- proved appearance but to better health.
 In attempting to improve the posture of their children, parents should be guided by the rules for good health. Constant supervision by . physician will provide sure means of knowing whether the child Is in good physical condition. He should have plenty of nourishing food, rest and sleep, with sufficient varied exercise for proper develop ment of all muscles. Furniture useo by the child should be adapted tc his needs, but if this is not possible he should not be required to ust unsuitable furniture for long periods of time. While resting or sleeping no pillow or a very thin one should be allowed, and the bed should bt firm and should not sag. Clothing should fit well to prevent pulling on the shoulders and shoes should be large enough so that they dt not bind the feet.
 Formation of good postural habit Is important for aesthetic reason but the greatest value accrues tx the individual in health benefits ant efficiency, the bulletin informed. person with good muscular control who holds his body well, is able t breathe deeper and will have bet ter circulation and digestion thar one who stands with sunken ches and prominent abdomen.

. STORIES
 IN STAMPS
Stuart Painted Fovorite Portroit of Washington

,CEORG E WASHINGTON'S " most loved likeness is not a handsome painting hung in an art museum. It is the small, engraved head which, from the first 10- cent adhesive, issued in 1847, to the Scent issue of 1882, has been the most popular stamp in U. s. mails.
 The picture on the stamp was taken from a portrait of Washing ton by Gilbert Stuart, one of the greatest of the early American painters.
 Stuart was born in Rhode Island in 1755. In 1775 he went to London, where he opened a studio six years later. He gained fame quickly, painted George III, Sir Joshua Reynolds and other ce- 1ebrities.
 At the height of his career he returned to America, in 1792, painted portraits of the first five presidents of United States and of many other distinguished men and women of the period.
 Best known are Stuart's paint ings of Washington. One of these hangs in the Metropolitan Muse um, another in the Boston muse um. A third, a full-length por- trait, was painted for the Marquis of Lansdowne.
 Stuart died in 1928 and was elected to the American hall of fame in 1900.
 A Stuart portrait of Washington is shown on the red Recent U. S. stamp above, of the issue of 1902-03.

TRAIN CATCHING

Marian, Dorothy, Cyrus and Lloyd have all planned to catch the 7:30 train for the beach, but their time pieces are not dependable.
 Marian's watch is 10 minutes slow, but she thinks it is 3 minutes fast. She is, however, a cautious girl and always plans to arrive at the station a quarter -hour ahead of time.
 Dorothy always like to arrive at the last possible moment, but her wrist watch is 10 minutes fast while she thinks it is 5 minutes slow.
 Cyrus, like Dorothy, likes to ar- rye as late as he can. His family clock is minutes slow, but he un- derstands it is that much fast.
 Lloyd allows 5 minutes extra to make train, but he goes by the bank building clock, which he thinks is accurate, but which is 3 minutes fast.

I been kinda halfway inter

scheme.
And I have not heard much
about it till here lately. But the
news trucking out now, it does
not look so good, or promising.
If you do not happen to re-
member it, the idea there, it
was to build dams and make
poTer-kind of a Socialist plan,
where the state and govt. run
things-and no profit. And from
the way it is commencing to
pan out, it looks like it is 0.
K. in one way-there is no
profit. But also, it looks like
there is maybe going to be poor
lights.
They are starting a rumpus
now, the paper says, and the
State fellers, and the Govt, and
the Local Communities, they
are argufying and putting on
a kind of 3-ring circus-but get
ting no place.
And the people who put up
the money, it looks kinda sickly
for them. They are going to
have some trouble getting their
money back-at the ticket wa
