 Winter Is c real bane of dry skins Dry heat indoors does as much dam. age as cold blasts outdoors. So what's to do7
 First, wash your face and neck with soap and water ct night only Use cream for mornings and cleails' ings during the day.
 Next, apply night cream regular iy. 4 really dry skin needs this even in summer, and when winter comes it's imperative.
 And that's the long and short Of specific remedies,
 But there are other measures which will show equally important results.
 The girl or woman whose health habits are perfect isn't likely to have a severe skin problem, short of q sudden aliment which requires q doctors attention. So # your skin is very dry, look to your eating, sleeping and exercise.
 WALK DAILY
 AND WATCH DIET
 Take a brisk walk daily and Do sure you get plenty Of fruit juices, milk, saladS and fresh vegetables.
 Then. too, inventory your coSmet. ic habits. Maybe you can improve your appearance considerably by more satiBfactory toilet aids. Cream rouge undoubtedly would help, fl you nov use powder. Select . color that matches your cheeks after vio- lent exercise. Apply 1t fairly high and be sure there are no rough edges, no white space between rouge and your ear. If blending edges is difficult, try bit of cleansing cream on each cheek before you start batting and blending. 'LUBRTCATTON"
 IS THE WATCHWORD
 Probably your hands, arms and elbows need fabrication as much as do your face and threat. Massage hand lotion into them several times 6 day and cover them once Q week with your very richest night cream, leaving it on as long as possible.

Because there as usually Q long drive to end from tho club, each wife gets the excitement oe driving out and beck with some other man than her husband. and each husband gets the pleasure Of Q nice dark drive with some other woman.

own right than am. Not aware
of it yet and very sweetiy gener-
GUS but still. :"
But stinw thought Linnie,
brooding over the girl who drove
beside her in pure profile, with
smooth rose-brown fingers on the
steering wheel.
II won't go up with you when
you see Aunt Judith" said Lucy.
Don't be surprised. l always

is, she simply loathes me, hates
to have me in the house. I'm
bootlegged by Aunt Lu, who is
a darling not exactly
pretty ="
And you are named for Aunt
Lu?"
yes"
But tell me why on earth
should your Aunt Judith dislike
you, child?"
IT'S a queer story. Aunt
Judith, when she came out, was
voted the most beautiful girl in
Philadelphia and for years she
was, o, terrific belle. A sort
of Victorian glamour girl,
guess. She was engaged two or
three times and to very rich, i'm
portant men but it always fell
through because she was so high
tempered and wanted everything
her own way.
The last one-I think she was
really in love with him too

up Philadelphia and the Sym
phony and the Assembly and all
that and where he had a per-
fectly good career with all the
best people She wouldn't. so

think it hurt a lot.
"She isn't a very great-aunt,
you know, Linnie. She and Aunt
Lu were very young when
Daddy's father married. l think
she was only about fifteen when
Dad was born. So she was a
girl-aunt and now, l suppose
must be. well, l don't think
she's sixty yet"
But that's almost young"
I'm a way. for a great-aunt!
She has really Lucy dipped
her head, the bronze hair in it's

shoulder, and whispered. "a per-

a week, and was finally cornered
while he was laying waste to a
farmers grass-roofed hut.
The farmer, in a vain effort to
save his home. picked a large
limb from a bonfire in his yard
and threw the blazing branch at
the intruder. Instead of turning
tail and running away the ele-
plant calmly picked up the limb,
by its cool and unburning end,
and carefully laid it on the grass
roof. Then he moved off at a
safe distance to watch the build
ing go UP In flames and burn to
the ground.
Half a day later some of the
men caught up with this wise ele-
plant and shot him.

married to the right sort of
man?"
We'll, there's an odd thing
about it, Linnie. Boys of her
own age and class are scared to
death of her. know. I've a boy
of my own, one of Lucy's in
Vulnerable cousins. They sit at a
distance with their mouths open.
They hardly dare ask her to
dance. They hold her as If she
was made of feathers or of
crystal or of air. Lucy has a
perfectly rotten time when she
goes out. And she's appallingly
shy. The boy must do it all and
you know how boys are at that
age, awkward, expecting the girls
to start the ball rolling and
carry it on"
This. to Linnie's Old Eve, was
the first good news she had
heard. Jackie was certainly
popular with the boys, as well as
with the girls, and, being so
warm, gay, friendly and honest,
she might well be help to Lucy
and Lucy, a foil for her. A
weight lifted from the anxious
mothers heart.
On the third morning, Ralph,
just before he left for town,
where he was vice-president of
an insurance company, turned to
Linnie for her kiss and added
thereafter, Get Lucy to take you
down to see the aunts today,
won't you, darling? They're
going to be hurt if you don't pay
your respects soon and early"
Linnie kept to herself the re-
tort that they should pay their
respects to her, and let Lucy, in
her own small car, drive her
down the winding leafy road.
A CHANCE question about
~ that car had brought to
Linnie another revelation. Lucy,

her voice. Lucy is much too

A dark pathetic color sprang
into that ignored and ageing face.
Linnie was taken upstairs
through a house Older and more
beautiful than Ralphs; a house
colonial and filled with the fine
imported furniture of that period.

studied the household with an
eye to adapting Jackie TO its
circumstances.
IT was a household. she found,
that ran on oiled wheels and that
gave her the most perfect re-
spect, duty and consideration.
But she very soon discovered
that to Lucy it gave something
more. Linnie's own rooms were
kept dainty and clean, her own
orders received prompt and ade-
quate attention but to Lucy, who
gave no orders, service was rem
dered punctiliously, deliberately.
as in ritual.
Lucy's rooms, a large bedroom,
a little sitting room and bath,
which she was now to share with
Jackie whose room opened into
it, were not only clean but inn
maculate. Not a spot, a shadow,
mark or stain was allowed to
sully the cleaning purity Of
floor, rugs, cushions, chintzes,
counterpanes.
And every morning Lucy's old
nurse, Sally, tapped gently at her
door, tiptoed in, closed her win
dows, opened her shades, ran her
bath. And every morning and
night, religiously, while Lucy sat,
meek, before her dressing table,
Sally brushed that wonderful hair
with a hundred firm and gentle
strokes. A little seamstress in the
village. Linnie discovered. made
all the child's clothes by hand
and showed a sort of genius
about it.
And the flowers in Lucy's room
were picked and arranged by
Mary, her little special dishes
were remembered by the cook
and handed to her sometimes at
table with an extra serious bend
ing and murmuring of the butler.
She was, in effect, not the
young lady of the house but its
goddess, it's tutelary saint, its
familiar. And, Linnie had to
admit, for none of this was Lucy
to be blamed. She did not in the
least degree encourage it. Being
used to it, Linnie supposed, since
her earliest infancy, she was
truly quite unaware of it. But
it was difficult, for all that, even
for a generous stepmother to
bear. Nothing to do about it."

very cautiously. that Lucy might
be spoiled, made too soft to face

life and marriage. II tried girls
camps and boarding school,"
What happened?"
"She was sent home. They
didn't exactly blame her, there
was no disgrace but, it appeared,
she turned the heads of various
accidental males, a gardener and
furnace man amongst them.
One young chap who, rather by
way of charity, lectured on Eng
lish poetry at Miss Millbrooke's,
for instance, sent her note urg-
ing her to elope with him.
