SUB ROSA BY MIMIL Catching Him Out. “Roy can't fool me.” Jane told me with great pride. “When he tries to put over a bluff on me, I catch him out every time. I've got so I can tell in an instant when he's going to tell me a nice little fib, and, believe me, he knows that I'll check up on him every time. He doesn't pull any line on me when I'm conscious.” Having made her little speech, she settled back complacently and looked smugly comfortable. She was happy In the knowledge that her man couid hold no secrets from her, that his every deception would be fmmediately detected. In other words, she constituted her- self a sort of police force, set on watching Roy and determining wheth- er he had criminal tendencies or not. Do you think she is right in be- lieving that this fs a satisfactor state of affairs? How do you sup- pose the boy friend feels about being checked up every evening as regu larly as if he were still at school? Suppose he is tossing her a few fibs just to keep her good-humore: will he like her any better for catch- ing him up and reminding him that she's right on the job with a good memory? If he’s the kind of boy who finds it easier to fib to his girl than to tell her the truth he’ll resent beins found out. If he's adopted the cours: of fibbing as a defense against her wrath and Jjealousy her constant doubts and suspicions will weary him When a man is put to telling white lies because of his sweetheart's un reasonable temperament, it’s the very last straw to have her bawl him out for doing the very thing which saves her peace of mind. Andfnow we come to another sup- position; if the man actually happen: to be honest with his girl friend, how does it make him feel to know that Friend Sweetheart is keeping careful tabs on everything he says, waiting to trip him up it hé says the wrons thing? What real satisfaction can a get out of exposing her man's f hoods? If she discovers that he was really lying to her she can only have a deep sense of hurt. And if she catches him up over an unintentional &iri disagreeable, lasting impression on him. Jane feels that because she once caught Roy in a fib to her she must be ever on the watch for another. Consequently her eves are sharp and suspicious as she talks to him. She doesn’t trust him, and her dis-{ trust oozes out of every pore. She radiates doubt. How long will Roy's affection last in that atmosphere? If you have the misfortune to be in love with a man who lies to you, don't try to cure him by checking up on him. Talk to him frankly about the whole thing and you may win some sort of promise from him to ell nothing but the truth. Gentleness and honesty man from prevarication. Suspicion and accusation will only make him more proficient in the art. Mimi will be glad to anewer any inquiries directed fo this paner. provided a stimoet addressed envelope s inclo Also she will e glad to send “Food for Conversation.’ and “How to Overcome Self-Consciousness.

She certainly would have worrled when the weather turaed cold and the fine rain began to freeze as soon as it fell. It was making a crust over the surface of the snow. Terror the Goshawk soon flew away to seek shelter. This sort of weather took his appetite. Jumper and Peter remained where they were, for they were protected and comfortable. And Mrs. Grouse remained where she | was under the snow because she was comfortable and safe. At least she thought she was safe. She could not think of any enemy likely to find her there. Now, Peter anything about abbit rs. G did not_think rouse. Even if could have let her know that she really was in the greatest of all dan- or her, the danger of being made prisoner under the crust. Jumper did not think anything about Mrs. Grouse. A crust never bothers him, so he did not think of what it might mean to her. And all the time the vain fell, and then the air grew colder and colder. A thin crust formed on the surface of the snow. This thin crust grew thicker and thicker and barder and harder. And all the time down beneath it Mrs. Girouse squatted in warmth and comfort, and was thankful for the snow that aided her 1o escape from Terror the Goshawk. (Copyrizht. 1926.) . Cranberry Compote.

She had not meant to be cruel, but ‘she hated the idea of being dis- | cussed. Besides, she was irritated and worried because she had not heard a word from Mr. Rogers.
