Then nobody can hurt your feelings, and no man can ever disappoint you, As far as I can see all the women who have the best time in the world are as hard as nails. They don't often get married, that's trua, but they do have a good time, and that is what [ want more than anything else.” Sounds reasonable, doesn’t it? And it would be perfectly sound reasoning if there wasn't always that fatal fact staring us in the face: That every girl soner or later finds out that she wants to be married. So that If my young correspondent argued from morning to night abont her utter lack of enthusiasm about matrimonial prospects no one in the world would believe her And If she starts out on thix plan of action— to be just as hard-boiled and cold as possible—she’ll ind herself cut off from all chances of leading some harassed male to the altar. For this business of making yourself hard and cold to the misfortunes that beset you does mot only involve a change of mind and heart; it involves a very perceptible change of appear- ance. lave you ever met a woman whose beauty, though quite perfect, left you absolufely cold? At first you aidn't re: e just why vou felt so little en- thusiasm for this beautiful plece of <cenery, and then you realized that the lovely face was quite hard, quite with- i or expression. Once you start out with the fixed \dea that vou're golng to steel your- self to resist all human actions, you'd better get out a mirror, and watch closely for the tell-tale signs that will drive admirers away. First there will be hard little lines from the base of the nose to the cor- ner of the lips. Then therell be a perceptible tight- ening of the whole mouth, and it will assume a rather rigld, fixed smile. Watch out for the hard light that creeps into vour eyes, so that no amount of dimples or smirks can con- vince people that you're really happy and at peace with the world. Notice how the softness will go out of the curve of ir cheek, and how the contour of your face will seem hard and straight. Then vour volce, too, will undergo a change, if you're mot careful. One morning you'll awake up to find that a hard, metallic note has crept into vour speech, so that people, hear- ing vou, will realize immediately that | you ‘are no eweet young thing, but a | hard-hearted Hannah, if there ever was one. No, vou won't be as attractive as vou plan to be if you insist on this hard-bofled idea. Better get a new philosophy., for it's not the hard women of this world who have tasted life's greatest joys. Remember—you can &poll your face just as quickly by the hard-bolled method as by any fake treatment ad- ministered by a quack doctor. | | | | Mim! will ba glad to anawer vour love anestions, Just inciose & stamped. addressed OW would you like a breakfast of real fish cakes—but with none of the fuss and bother of soakin, picking, Take home one of these blue- ovig:;l ready-to-fry fish Fish—No Bones.

D, thin peste, breaking up &!l Imps, and stir the paste into a bucket of water out of doors (to avold the irri tating chlorin fumes), then pour the bucketful into the well. This treat- ment gives a dosage of about two parts of chlorin to the million parts of water, which is generally consid ered sufficient for disinfecting drink ing water. It must be repeated about as_often as the capacity of the weil has been withdrawn for use. There should be a slight taste of chlorin in the water. For sterilizing small quantitf questionable water for drinking, emergencies, rub up a rounded fea spoonful of chloride of lime’ with water into a smooth paste, and dissolve the paste In enough water to fill a pint bottle. Of thix use a tablespoontul o each 10 gallons of the drinking water to be disinfected, and let the water stand half an hour least before drinking. Another excellent emergency disin- fectant for drinking water of uncer- tain character ig one or two drops of tincture of fodin haken up with a quart of the water and allowed to stand 20 minutes before drinking, Disinfection of Water. The simplest and best way to steril- ize or disinfect for drinking purposes water which may be polluted, 1s boil- ing for five minutes. Even just bring: ing the water to a bofl and then let- ting it cool again will kill any disease 1 germs which may be in the water. But in order to make sure of killing all germ life in water—sterilizing the bolling must be kept up for five minutes. Even that is not consld- ered sufficlent to destroy certain spore bearing bacterfa; in the practice of strict asepsis water is boiled five min- utes on three consecutive days to in-| sure complete sterflization. It 18 not very convenient to boil all the water in a well or cistern or spring, and besides, it wouldn't do much good to boil it if more water enters from the same contaminated or polluted source right after the bofling. The best compromise we have available in such a case Is chlorination of the water in the well, cistern or spring. For this purpose the common chloride of lime (chlorin- ated calcium, bleaching powder) may be purchased by the can from drug- gist or grocer. The can must be a sealed can, and the freshness and ac tivity of the lime chloride is indicated by a very pungent odor of chlorin on opening the can. Chloride of lime de- terforates and becomes almost value- less as a germicide or disinfectant on long standing or exposure to the air. If it does o, the odor is not very pro nounced. The right dose of chloride of lime for disinfecting water in a well or ‘H\hl—l reservoir is one ounce to every | { thousand gallons of water. A moder. |ately heaping tablespoonful of chlor- {ide of lime is about one ounce: such | . lespoonful is about an inch deep | it the middle. That'’s easy enough The problem that calls for the kind of arithmetic we don’t learn in school is to estimate the amount of water in the well As a rough rule, the amount of water in well, cistern or tank may he amsumed to be about six gallons for each foot of water in the well a foot in diameter, 24 gallons for two feet in diameter, 53 gallons for three feet, 94 gallons for four feet, 147 gallons for five feet, 212 gallons for six feet, 283 gallons for seven feet and 876 gallons for eight feet Do not drop the dry chloride of Parking With Peggy lime into the water, but first ruh| it up with a er to make You see a lot more promising st little wa dents than those who pay cash = DISTINGUISHED VISITORS PRAISED THE CITY'S HOSPITALITY AND EXCELLENT FOOD IN thecW?ASH INGTON of the Gay Early Eighties A half century ago Washington, as now, was a city of glowing beauty and charm, In its fine homes distinguished visitors were welcomed almost daily . . . most of the famous men and women of the world were wined and dined by Wash- ington’s expert hostesses.
