my dear. The truth Is that Syl-
VIA wanted to marry me herself
once and she will probably never
approve of any one I choose"
So then she had not been mis-
taken. There had been mockery
in those gray eyes.

was never in love with her. You
can see for yourself that she is
not my type"
How long after that did she
marry Mr.. MARSHALL" sheila
asked thoughtfully.
Raoul shrugged.
II don't know. A year. Two
years perhaps. They are very con-
genial. Robert is a fine chap. 1
think they are very happy"
But Sheila, with the instinct of
a woman, knew otherwise. Sylvia
Marshall still loved Raoul. What
bitter pill it must have been to
be asked to entertain the girl he
was hoping to marry.
Learn Language
AS they approached the city
Raoul said, IF you really wish
to learn Spanish why don't you
move into a pension where moth
ing else is spoken"
"A boarding house ?" she asked
doubtfully.
"Ah, but a very nice one" Raoul
assured her. There is one in Bel
grano not far from where we live.
1t is charming. More like a small
hotel than the ordinary pension.
You could have your own room and
bath just the same" He added:
And I could see you oftener.
We could have tea together after
l leave the bank every day. Don't
decide against it until after you
have seen it."
AT the moment Sheila did not
think she would like 1t but the
next afternoon when they rang
the bell at the pension gate she
knew that once again Raoul had
proved the wisdom of his advice.
The huge old mansion surround
ed by high wall and garden full
of trees and flowers was both
quaint and comfortable. There was
a room on the second floor OPEN
ing upon private balcony over
looking a magnolia tree in full
bloom.
You may have your breakfast
out here Roaul explained. "Or
tea in the afternoon"
I'm take it," Sheila said with
out hesitation.

Soap and Water Bath
After Outdoor Play
Very Important

Turn a child loose in a sand pile
or let him play almost anywhere out
of doors and the mud and CRIME he
collects in short order are likely to
make it hard for his own mother to
recognize him. Repeated warnings
to keep clean are useless. What child
at play can be expected to concen-
trate on anything else!
But the child's mother, however
conscientious and anxious she may
be to safeguard the health and well
fare of her child, need not be con-
cerned if cleanliness practices fol-
low play. Let the child get dirty
during playtime, say leading author
tiles on child welfare. Let him skip
and jump or lose. himself in the
creation Of tunnels and bridges. AS
long as he washes thoroughly after
wards. and especially before eating,
there's little likelihood of harmful
effects.
When playtime is over his hands
and face and body can easily be
cleansed in warm bath with
plenty of soap and water. Most
likely a nail brush will need to be
called into action for ankles and
knees and finger nails.
Washing in soap and water will
make short work of the soil on over
alls and socks and playsuits, par
ticularly if they 60 into the laun-
dry hamper or washtub after each
period of play. Prompt and fire.
quent cleaning will help to prolong
their life.
If the child is properly trained in
cleanliness habits he will need little
or no urging to clean up before eat
ing. Once the habit Of thorough
washing with soap and water is i'm
planted. and particularly the care
full scrubbing of the hands that are
to be used for carrying food to the
mouth. washing will become
natural and enjoyable aftermath of
play and a regular prelude to all
meals.

Which makes the better wife, the
domestic girl or the business girl?
Which should man pick out for a
life companion, the girl who has
been Mammals little helper and who
is an expert in performing on the
gas range, or the girl who has been
a super-Saleswoman or a crackerJack
private secretary or who can play
sonatas on an adding machine?
That is a problem that many a
young man who is contemplating
matrimony lies awake Of nights try
ing to solve, and one of them puts
the matter up to me. He says: /
believe in marriage for man. l want
to marry. I want wife, and home,
and children, but / don't want TO
make any mistake in picking out
the woman I marry And for the
life of me I can't decide whether
I would have a better chance OF
happiness with an old-fashioned
home girl of the clinging-vine type
or a modern young woman who is
independent and makes her own
living and who knows all the an
swers." Well. of course, it all de-
ponds upon the girl, for, strangely
enough. the sort of a wife a girl
makes doesn't depend SO much upon
whether she has been brought up
in the kitchen or reared behind a
counter as it does upon the amount
of backbone she has and how much
in love she is with the man she
marries. All OF us have seen domes-
tic girls who are so fed up with
cooking and dishwashing that they
never even looked at pot or pan
after they were married. And we
have seen girls who had never
boiled an egg before marriage turn
into model housekeepers after mar
rage.
Theoretically it would seem that
the business girl should make the
better wife because she has had a
training in promptness, accuracy,
the value of money and how to soft
soap q boss that the domestic girl
lacks. Also, having had experience
in business and knowing how much
toll and sweat and blood goes into
the making of a dollar. she should be
more sympathetic with her husband
and better able to understand the
trials of a tired businessman.
However, this does not seem to be
the case, as a group of sociologists
who have been looking into the mat
ter have recently reported that no
class of women get so many divorces
as those who have been business
women before marriage.
This is due to many causes, the
principal one of which, of course,
is that they do not feel financially
dependent upon their husbands.
They can make their own bread and
butter and so they can put on their
hats and walk out if their wife-j jobs
prove unsatisfactory. They do not
have to stick to a cantankerous
and disagreeable man just because
he is a meal ticket. They can roll
their own.
Also, the woman who has once
toted her own pocketbook always

very low starch content. This bread
has = rich nutty flavor and is espe-
cially delicious when toasted =.
For your next picnic party take
along several hot dog roasters and
extension forks. The rooster holds
three "wienies" to be cooked at the
same time over the fire, and has a
nice long handle so you won't get
burnt. OF course, with the extern
ton fork the handle is adjustable q.
If your iron garden chairs are not
very comfortable get number. of
padded seats to tie on that are
made out of fancy oilcloth in diff
ferent colors bound with matching
tape -.
Round cork dOilies painted with
Mexican scenes come in sizes to be
used under plates or glasses, thereby
saving your tables from being
marked :.
Colored milk bottle covers will
keep the bottles tightly capped and
also give a touch of color to your
refrigerator. Use different shades to
indicate the various kinds of milk
and grades of cream -.
There's a novelty piece for the
golfer, especially appropriate for the
one who spends half an hour looking
for the tee after drive This gadget
consists of a tee tied to a green

ished driving, place the steel shafted
club close to the magnet and presto,

For the hostess in quest for
something new to serve in the way
OF soup there is a chicken con-
somme prepared with burgundy and
tomatoes. This soup may also be
had with sauterne. Keep several
cans on the emergency shelf so as
to be prepared when husband comes
home with several out-oftoWn

Your son probably dislikes the cre-
tonne shoe bag in his closet because
it looks too much like sisters closet
accessories. Give him a very man
nish shoe rack TO hang on the door,
made out of leather straps that will
hold six pairs of shoes. An easy
item to fold up and put into his
bag TO take to prep school or COL
lege -.
Be patriotic and flaunt as much
red, white and blue as possible.
One Of the most attractive and use
full accessories in these colors is the
combination cigarette case and
compact. The top is divided in
three, with the two ends of blue
enamel, while the center is white,
holding a ships wheel done in red
and white framing watch. The
center compartment is the compact,
and the two ends hold cigarettes :.
Don't start out on trip without

dSluc lIUIl uolllb lllioiCuiii, oo why
will resist water and stains?
L. K. E.
Answer:
Paint over your finished sign with
a colorless waterproof lacquer, and
either protect the top of the sign
with a strip of wood or other ma
terial like a narrow roof, or seal it
in some way so that rain will not
soak in between the wood backing
and the enameled surface. A metal
strip would be ideal for this, and
will prevent the chipping and peel
ing of the paint. If you keep the
surface lacquered, your underpaint
will last indefinitely. Commercial
pressed boards in different colors
are made for the surfacing around
sinks and are both stain and water
proof. Or, you might remove the
paint and shellac with varnish re-
mover, sand the wood carefully and
then use just the plain wood.

it clean. Most of the wood sur
faces are supposed to be used this
way and should not be vanished.

DEAR MISS NOVEL;:
I would appreciate your opinion
on my idea for redecorating my
apartment. I want to give an i'm
preston of spaciousness and as
restful an atmosphere as possible.
To accomplish this, intend to use
the same color scheme throughout
the entire apartment with only
slight variations for contrast. My
walnut living-room furniture is done
in green and gold printed linen,
which is also used for the draperies
over my venetian blinds and slip
covers for two small side chairs. In
the bedroom I am using green again
in a chair (surplus from my living
room suite) but with peach instead
of the gold in bedspread and very
sheer curtains. May I use that
same printed linen to cover my
slipper chair and help to blend the
rooms, or % you think that would
clash with the peach? The bathroom
has so much black and white that
I am using that for my mats, with
peach curtains. I also have some
luxury towels in peach and black
and white. My kitchen takes to
green quite naturally and 1 am
going to add some plain yellow to
pep it up. Please give me your
reaction to this idea. Do you think
it will be too monotonous?
M. E. McC.
Answer
Your plan sounds very wise and
very clear throughout. I have only
one suggestion to make. I would
not repeat the printed linen on the
slipper chair in the bedroom, as it
would look too definitely left over"
from the living room. 1t would be
wise to introduce another design
in the way Of floral pattern or a
stripe in the little chair and repeat
the same material either at the win
dow in swag above your peach
curtains, tie backs, or under the
glass on your dresser. Keep it within
the same color scheme for con-
tinuity, but give new interest by a
varied pattern. Other than that. in
color and arrangement I think you
have worked the whole out very well.
