A prodi- gal son, returning home in New York, failed to find a fatted calf awaiting him. There was a warrant out for the prod- igal. 2 His father, a plainclothesman, served the warrant—took him to jail. This is not without its note of tragedy. Can you imagine the mental! and spiritual tortures this father went through? SODA : Just 50 years since the soda fountain was invented. There are 110,000 of them in America now.

If I eat more than ten, my little toe keeps me awake all night.” “Oh, goodness!” whispered Nan- ey. “He’s as deaf as a post. We'll have to ask somebody else. Good- bye, old man.” “Yes, I certainly will,” called the old man after them. “A week next Sunday.” a People in Venus were getting breakfast because it was so near- ly bedtime. Some were sweeping the streets and brushing the dust into the houses. “My, oh my!” cried a woman near them. “I have the most Caran ay) | LITTLEJOE || Ih Saeed A FELLOW WHO DOESN'T * | MIND THE OTHER || FELLOWS BUSINESS | ' USUALLY KNOWS ALOT |.| ABGUT HIS OWN! || irdustry.

She has made a wonderful manager, and sometimes I think it is due as much to her as to me that it has been successful. Not- withstanding, you seem to think I am absolutely necessary to its pros- perity. What would you think of giving her a small interest in it? That would leave us in comparative independence of it. Write and tell me what you think of the plan. I don’t imagine you will be home very soon, if your love has not made you too fearful of your father’s con- dition, and he is not better than you think, My heart goes out to you and to your mother. The sufferings of those we love are perhaps the hardest things we have to bear in this world, our own misfortunes, our own mental hurts, because most of us have hearts that are stout enough to bear the ills that come to us; but always we seem to feel when we see the sufferings of| ty those who are very dear to us, that we must give them some impossible relief. However, my dear Leslie, you have one great solace, Your father, my dear, is a great and good man. What- ever comes, that satisfaction cannot be taken from you. It is the great- est heritage he can leave to you. This is a very long letter, my dear, and there is still much I would like to say. But after all, when one wishes really to comfort a friend, one must talk face to face. So I will just add the words Until soon, RUTH. Letter From John Alden Prescott To Sydney Carton It’s a long time, dear old singe I have written you, EVERETT TRUE chap, and so The Tangle : -had not been there. much has happened that it seems even longer, especially as you have not answereq my last letter. I had fully made up my mind not to go to Leslie until she had asked me to or in some other way signified her want of me.. But the fates seem- ed to conspire against me. You saw from Mother Hamilton’s letter that I would have appeared a churl had I not come over here. Beside, I don’t mind telling you, I never was as lonely and unhappy in my life. That damned old maid, Priscilla Bradford, has stayed on with Mother, and there is_something about her that when she is with the mater, she puts the devil into her. I don't see how Leslie put up with her. I know that I wouldn’t. In fact, I think her being at the house was one reason why I determined to eat humble pie and go over to Leslie. Of two evils, I determined to choose the lesser. Of course, I didn’t tell her I was coming, and strange as it may seem,| I had a kind of feeling I should find her sitting upstairs in a room alone, @ grieving—a kind of modern Marianna in the moated grange, as it were.

She didn’t even offer her lips to me, and I think mine were stopped somewhere about the edge of her hair, near her ear. I don’t know what would have happened, for everything was decidedly strained, if that blessed baby had not caught sight of Leslie and almost hurled himself out of Nora’s arms.

DON’T SEE HOW YoU GAN GOnS KREPUG- WHEN ‘ou ANAL TNT “i THURSDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1924 LINCOLN NOT AWKWARD By Albert Apple Abraham Lincoln was not awkward. His father made him look that way. Former U. S. Senator Cornelius Cole, 102 years old, recently wrote: : “In justice to my friend, Abraham Lincoln, I want to icorrect the propaganda which has been going the rounds |about his awkwardness. I was a member of the thirty- eighth Congress when he was president, and sat within ‘arm’s length of him when he delivered his Gettysburg ad- dress, I knew him well enough to deny that he was awk- ward. “Tall, yes, and because of that he appeared a bit un- gainly. But if he seemed awkward, it was because of his ielothes. There were terrible tailors in those days.” Awkward tailoring did not do Lincoln any harm with the voters of his time. His tailor gave him a lot in common with the roughly garbed people back yonder. * r is Look through an old picture album. The old-timers, in their “Sunday best,” wore wonderful cloth—material that would be priced sky-high nowadays. But the tailoring was awkward—to our eyes. Of course, we’ll look just as crude when people a half century from now inspect pictures of us. Peg-top trousers, the height of fashion not so many years ago, would be hooted at as ridiculous now. Clothes may not make the man. But it’s just as well for Lincoln that his tailor didn’t transform him into a graceful dude. His ungainly appearance was a tremendous poli- tical asset. Good taste in clothes seems to be inborn, not acquired. There are some people who look stylish and snappy in any kind of garments. Others look awkward and slouchy, no matter what they wear. If you study a man’s clothes, you can come pretty close to “getting his number.” Clothes do not make the man, but they do reveal the man. 9 Instinctive realization of this is what makes men dress so much alike. They submerge many a defect by not venturing far from the standardized average. : Women are different. They seek individuality, striking- ness. New York, Oct. 9.—Sophisticated New York pauses to be entertained at a medicine show. Billeted in a vacant store room on Eighth avenue, just a few steps from Times Square, the nth degree in show places, a traveling band of snake oil and. salve vendors, go through their age-old ballyhoo each afternoon and night. And business is good. On the walls are advertising post- ers and’ pictures, In the front win- dow is the come-on exhibition of wild, vicious rattlesnakes, their poi- sonous fangs wagging as vigorously as the hawker’s tongue and their constant, warning..rattling drowned in an interesting speech of. welcome. In the rear of the room is an im- Provised stage, made of store boxes and soiled bunting. On it are the typical medicine show “props.” There is the ventriloquist’s dark- complexioned dummy,’ from’ whose mechanically operated mouth flows joke book bromides that bring sure- fi nickers; the magician’s deck of ‘ds. the glass of water, the moth- eaten’ rabbit that appears from a dented plug hat. After the short, snappy show is Anyone who can forage a little lumber can have a fresh air closet for foods, and this is an excellent method for keeping them fresh and at the same time keeping smells from the pantry.

Place it in a cool spot, within handy reach and, unless the weather FABLES ON HEALTH CLOSET FOR FOODS completed, the “doctor” dives into his picture on the benefits of his famous compound. Cappers work through the audience selling, selling, selling. It may be memories of childhood in some small town, where medicin2 men parked their wagons and in the flickering light of a kerosene lamp extolled in glorified terms the won- ders of their preparations, that brings men and women in evening dress into this quaint show in the swirl of New York—and again it may be only curiosity. But still they come. Speeding New York steps a pace faster in, the crisp, fall air, The gray cast of overhanging clouds, casting shadows of the approaching winter, is evident in the demeanor of the crowds. The bubbling enthusiasm and care- free antics caused by a warm, friend- ly summer sun are chilling in the sweeping winds that whistle through canyons of huge buildings. New York is wistful, : There is much suffering here in the colder months. —Stephen Hannagan. is not, this is a better place for food than any ice chest. Clean earthen dishes should be used to hold the food and never in any sort of metal, Cheese cloth bags can easily be made and into these slip the plate and food. If ants should find the place put a coat of camphor around the box every two weeks or so. About every six months take the box down and scald it’ thoroughly with boiling soda water.
