Perhaps her narrow escape of ‘the afternoon, followed by the ap- pearance of Mr. Martin, had unnerved her, but as she looked back over the week just past her whole plan seemed rather futile and harmless She tried to remember what she had wanted to come from her carefully laid plans. 1f she had wanted merely ention and popularity then her scheme had been a successful one, but If she had wanted more than that the She had gained J pense of antagonizin the inn.

It wau her own fault that George Waldron had misunderstood her attitude. She had no one but her- self to blame. The realization of this did not to make her any h plodded drearily her thoughts flew to Dean Hampton. Of all the men at the hotel he was the only one she really liked. And yet thought before, ascinating disguise t she had adopted had trapped her. If she had come to the Poppy Inn as Miss Carson she might have succeeded in interesting him; as it was, he preferred Norris and made no secret of that fact, Once more the consciousness of his having kissed her as she had lain in erve nd as she once at My mind has hela 2 million thoughts.

Bt ar Ann: At the theater the other night T saw a woman with a round neck, chiffon evening gown with straps over her shoulders. But she has very broad shoulders, and the straps came clear to the edge of her shoulder line, which made her awfully out of proportion. These straps, if brought in about an inch, would have made her shoulders appear less broad, and would have been infinitely better placed. Yours for proper placing, LETITIA. (Copsright, 1925.) 0 BATCH! his arms, flashed across her thoughts, and in the darkness she felt her cheeks suddenly hot. If he had—but no, the idea was too absurd. It simply wasn't in him to do such a thing. And vet it he had—her heart was beating hard, she felt suddenly buoyant and happy as she had never been before. It flashed across her at last that she loved Dean Hampton, that she wanted more than anything in the world to have him approve of her. She loved everything about him, even the Puri- tan instinct that had resulted in his disapproved of her. Of course, he did not like a girl who had flirted as she had; of course. he wouldn't approve of a_sophisticated widow with insidious wiles and all kinds of experience. The memory of his piercing gray eves, with their look of cold disap- proval, flashed across her mind and she choked back a_sob that contracted her throat uncomfortably. When he learned the truth about her, and she felt somehow that he was sure to do that, he would despise her even more than he did now. She was just a silly little fraud, a poor imitation of the dashing Kitty Carlyle whose charms she had so gayly adopted for her own. Hot tears were stinging her evelid: but she winked them back angrily. A week ago she had been at home, with her delightful adventure still before her, and as she reached this point in her thoughts she realized that only half of her vaaction was over. She still had a week to g0 on being Mrs. Churchill, to flirt gayly, while her heart was breaking because Dean Hampton despised her so heartily. I don't see how I can bear it " she said aloud, “I'm tired of playing make- believe, I'm sick to death of Mr Churchill. I don’t want to be a widow any longer, I want to be just myself Again she thought of Dean Hamp- ton, of the way his head was set on his ‘shoulders, of the careless swing of his walk and of the strong grip of his hands on her shoulders he had drawn her across that narrow ledge into the safety of his arms. If only she hadn't been such a fool, if only she hadn't spoiled everything! (Copyright, 1925.) (Continued in tomorrow's Star.)

Food Specialist We are so glib with our few little phrases and our “pat” little speeches! This staccato superficiality is in the air, and when the question under dis- cussion is nothing more serious than the latest thing in symbolism no-one is any the worse for the fashionable patter. When we approach the subject of nutrition, however, we are dealing with fundamentals, and before we at- tempt to place a food in its proper niche in the dietary, we must know something beyond the fact that it is “full of calories,” as one slim debu- tante, more loquacious than accurate, phrased it! ‘What should we really know in re- lation to each of the foods that make us what we are? Because it is al- ways more interesting to have a real personality at the center of our study of the history of a period, because it is also easier to think of the diet as a whole in terms of the particular foods that compose it, why not take one food, chocolate, if it so please the reader, to hold the center of the stage while we present the pageant of the foods. Chocolate, then. First {ts history. Before these piping times of food research the his- tory of the discovery, development and use of & new food product was the chief dependence of one who wish- ed to study it. The merest skim over the avalilable literature dealing with chocolate shows that in the eighteenth century it was sald to be actively harmful, that in the middle of the nineteenth such extravagant claims were made touching its food value as almost to discredit it among thinking people, while at the present time, with the twentieth century but recently launched on its somewhat stormy but remarkable life, we learn that the conclusions of first writers have been disproved and those of second so modified as to give us a practical basis for evaluating this de- liclous food and beverage. Fact No. 1—To learn about a food—its nutritional history. ‘While this information about choco- late was gathering form numerous instances are cited to show that it played an interesting part in the soclal world. Fact No. 2—Personality stories con- nected with a food often help to fix in mind valuable information as to its food value. Next come the discussions on the subject of the component parts of the cocoa bean and the nutritional func- tlon to be performed by each. Various writers will emphasize various points, but a -calm and dispassionate atti- tude, plus an intelligent knowledge of what constitutes a complete dietary will guide the student here. Fact No. 3—Complete information as to the chemical composition of the product is an absolute neces- sity. As a corrollary to this point we have the fact that it is equally neces. sary for the student to have a gen- eral working and reading knowledge of dietetics as a whole. Then, with all this preliminary ma- terial lined up, we arrive at the inter- esting stage of preparing the product for consumption. The nutrition work. er who desires to make proper use of chocolate in his diet work must know the best method of preparation. Half-raw cocoa or chocolate will some- times produce a well defined indl- gestion, while delicately prepared with proportions of milk and water just right the individual will be re- freshed, cheered and fed. Fact No. 4—It is for the food stu- dent to despise not the homely art of cookery. Persistent Pedestrian.

The condition of pregnancy is a natural one, and many of its phases are perfectly normal, though unpleas- ant. But there are svmptoms which | indicate danger, and these should not be disregarded merely because the woman wants philosophically to bear her burdens without complaint. It is normal for the average woman to be nauseated the first six weeks. Some do not suffer any nausea at all, and they are exceedingly fortunate, but it s not a danger sign to feel nausea—rather it is quite normal. But if nausea and excessive vomiting continue for three or four months— and then, after a period of cessation, start in again—this condition is ab- normal and the doctor should be ad- vised. 1t is possible for the doctor to be aware of the development of danger by a careful analysis of the urine. This is most important and the doctor will always warn his patlents that they should send him a sample of urine monthly for such analysis. Don't disregard this or leave it to the busy doctor to remind you. Attend to it yourself and sce that it is sent regularly. Consult the doctor when you ers sure of vour condition and be in touch with him during the whole pe- rlod. TFalse modesty keeps many young_mothers from consulting a doc- tor. Nothing could be more absourd than this. Childbirth is natural—and one should view it ®o. It is most Ir- ritating to a doctor to have to fairly tear information from a reluctant pa- | tient merely bec: she can't bring | herself to “speak’ about such delf: | cate matters. Stuff and nonsense! If the woman experiences anv of the following symptoms she may look upon them as aside from the normal and by all means bring them to the attention of her doctor: Repeated headaches, dizziness, spots before the eyes and extreme puffiness under- neath the eyes, muscular twitchings, swelling of the feet and hands and persisient neuralgic pains. These symptoms should not be disregarded. Varicose veins are fairly common at this time. They are annoying and painful and if unattended may rup ture. A rubber stocking may be worn, or a rubber bandage, put on before arlsing in the morning. This latter a4y be bought by the yard and wrap- ped in a spiral about the leg. It af- fords great relief.
