WUMAN'S PAGE, Making the Most of Your Looks BY DOROTHY STOTE. Dear Ann: Tt is not enough that the stout woman know that panels are good for her figure. She must also realize Dow to place them. The panels in the dress on the left are so far apart they call attention to her breadth and s0 make her look stouter. They should be close enough together to give a long, slim front line. Yours for discrimination. LETITIA. (Copyright. 1926.) EVERYDAY Keene, N. H. T go to the moving plctures only once a year because 1 find so few plotures that entertain me without an overdose of sentimentality or sex stuff. What would vou recommend to me for visiting this year? Answer—I regret to say that T cannot find time to see the movies. But some friends who make up for | my remissness on this score tell me that “Ben Hur" and “The Gold Rush” are well worth while. Beyond this I am unable to advise you. There should be a more direct and reliable connection between the multi tudes you represent and the plays and pletures which repay a visit and do not throw piffie or fiith in your face. As I write an honest attempt is being made to elevate the general ocharacter of public amusements and the instructive capacity of the drama. Tt deserves consideration upon the part of the dramatic profession and of the churches. Tampa, Fla. T have a mysterious question to ask. I have been in my present loca- tion for 10 years and something that T did 7 vears ago and which to my knowledge was hidden is now talked about by many people in this city. Should I worry? Answer—Did you worry about it before it was talked about? If mot, vour consclence needs tuning up. Once a hidden wrong leaps to light. the mystery which enshrouds your let- ter is useless. Whatever you did, and vou do not even hint at the nature of your offense, it i8 now repeated on the housetops and in the streets. TWhat avail your secret plottings and false inventions? “Murder will out,” as the old saving goes, and the lesser crimes likewise crowd on its heels to get out. ; How often the transgressor reveals his gullty secret by the pains he takes to hide it. This may be your case, since from the tone of your letter evidently you shiver on the verge of detection. Why not anticipate vour difficulty? RId vour breast of this foul stuff of evasion, hypocrisies and lies. Take the festering thorn of deception out of your conscience. Let your better self have its inning. HOME NOTES BY JENNY WREN. Many apartment house dwellers in New York City have arranged private roof gardens on the tops of their apartment houses, and even the roofs of some of the office buildings have been utilized as home sites and gar- den plot Usually the building wall extends for some distance above the roof level so that an effective wall of brick, stone or marble seems to inclose it. A waterproof or linoleum-covered floor can be lald over the roof itself; an awning wards off the sun’s rays; gar- den furniture is placed, and a proper little garden results. Plants and little trees must grow in pots and tubs, it is true, but still they add the neces- sary touch of green, and these light and airy sky-scraping gardens are as comfortable and restful as the coziest vard garden in the suburh: v Y, QUESTIONS If your 10 years of residence in the place where you did the thing you vainly tried to conceal have been otherwise well spent they ought to count in your favor and temper with mercy the judgment passed upon Above all. do not give way to the | @espair which kills the man in you.

Answer—Many such people, con- vinced as they are of the rightful | claims of God on conscience and life, plan their submission to those claims in terms of expedlengy and eelf-n terest. As opportunists they propose to be { religious when there is less to allure | them from religion. But why quit { too soon the spiced wines of gay and voluptuous fellowship? ~Why desert doubtful wavs of getting money so long as a few more shekels can be sately gotten in those way So they reason, or, rather, surmise, not_guilty of deliberate rejection of God's overtures, but of the scarcely less disastrous offense of asking Him to wait on their pleasures or dishon- est_practices and profits.

Add 7 level cups (3 pounds) sugar and mix well. Use hotest fire and stir constantly before and while boiling. Bring to a full rolling boil and boil hard for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from fire and stir in % cup Certo. Skim and stir repeatedly for just 5 min- utes after taking from fire, to cool slightly. Pour quickly and cover hot jam at once with hot melted paraffin. The short boiling time, possi- ble only with Certo, prevents the loss of delicate flavor and the darkening in color which used to occur during the old long bofl. It also gives you a larger amount of jam since you save the large quantity of julce which used to boil away. Certo is a pure fruit product —the Jjellying substance; of fruit refined and bottled.” A book of simple recipes comes with each bottle. Your grocer carries Certo, or vou can send 10¢ (for postage) and get a trial half-size bottle which will make from 6 to 10 lasses of jam or jelly, depend- ng upon the recipe used.
