WOMAN'S PAGE." Practical Ways of Drying Shoes BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. Most of us, and certainly all of us who are mothers, are in need of know- ing how to dry wet shoes quickly. One of the greatest safeguards to health is to avoid circumstanc which invite colds in the season during which they are most prevalent. The two sugges: tions given in today's article have been used many times with success, one in this country and the other in Switzer land. The first requires the use of hot tow- CAN BE DRIED AND SILY IN THE WAY DE- | SHOES SHAP) SCRIBED. els. A pair of shoes actually soaking wet can be dried in about 1! hours by this method.

Tucked well into the toes of wet shoes, lowever, they do much to assist in making them hold their shape and help in_the drying process. The method for drying wet shoes which comes from Switzerland may prove surprising to some. Yet those who have tried it can vouch for fts eftica This way is to fill the wet hoes with hot oatmeal, not, of course, prepared for eating, but in the dry aw form in which it comes. The ontmeal gets into the wet crev- | fcos oven better than a towel can, ab. sorbs the moisture, and, as it does so, swells ough to give an outward pres- sure against the sides of the shoes, which is excellent, as it removes the wrinkles so frequently found after shoes have been wet. The oatmeal is remarkable in helping the shoes to {he same oatmeal, which is taken out .\amm can be heat- od again and poured bhack until the shoes are as dry as could be wished. 1t is better to stuff drying shoes tightly with paper than to insert shoe trees, even if the paper is not required in the drying process. Shoe trees are inclined to stretch the wet shoes too much in the length, so that wrinkles result when the trees are removed. Shoes should not be put in a place of too great heat when drying, as to dry them suddenly is likely to make them very stiff and inclined to crack. Everyday Law Cases What Is a “Corporation”f BY THE COUNSELLOR. A corporation is an organization composed of persons associated to- gether for some financial, social or governmental purpose. It comes into existence by express authority of the State. Some of its distinguishing features are as follows: It is a being distinct from the per- sons who compose it. It has perpetual existence and con- tinuous succession notwithstanding changes in its membership. It may sue and be sued, sign notes, checks, contracts and other obliga- tions. It possesses only such powers conferred upon it by the State. It acts through its board of direc- tors, officers and agents. It acquires capital by subscriptions to its stock. Persons owning stock are called stockholders, their holdings represent an interest in the corporation’s profits. Stockholders are not liable for the corporation’s acts or debts. A charter is the license from the State to the corporation to exist and operate. Stock is usually of two kinds, com- mon and preferred. Common stock represents an in- terest in the profits and its dividends depend on the earnings of the cor- re ia preferable to a hand towel for such use. In the absence of towels, or if there | is so great a demand upon them for | drying numerous pairs of shoes lhuti the supply is inadequate, newspapers | heated in the oven may be substituted, although they are not as efficient. ! BEDTIME STORIE ‘What Shadow’s Nose Discovered. ¥ho trusts his nose and believes his eyes p ne. T8 ever caey L0 SR of the Weasel. Shadow the Weasel is well ac-| quainted with the old stone wall on one side of the Old Orchard. Every once in so often he visits it. It is Just the kind of a place he likes. Of course, it is full of the loveliest kind of places for such a slim fellow as Shadow to dodge in and out of. It is, of course, equally good for certain other little people, and it is because of these other little people that Shadow likes it so well. That Striped Chipmunk had his| home somewhere under the old stone A o s 1y I L OF | ZD. “THERE'S A FAINT SME CHIPMUNK," HE MUTTER! wall was an open secret which all the littie people of the Green Forest and | the Green Meadows knew. Shadow bad known it for a long time. But knowing it was there and finding it were two different matters. Bhadow had hunted for Striped Chipmunk’s home hefore and he knew just what kind of & task finding it would prob- ebiy be. Bo until tday he had put off the hunt. Now he he mzde & business of what he had come for “Of course,” thought Bhadow, “the entrance to Biriped Chipmunk's home fs in the ground sumewhere under this stone wall, Of cuuse, he wouldn't mske that entrance right out in the poration. Preferred stock also represents an interest in the profits, but its dividends are fixed, such as 5 or 6 per cent an- nually. It is known as preferred stock because dividends must be paid on this stock before any dividends are declared on the common stock. BY THORNTON W. BURGESS open. My guess is that it is under the edge of some big stone. If he were out and about I would soon find it by following his scent. Now that he’s asleep I'll have to depend on my ves more than my nose. The thing to do is to look thoroughly.” Did you ever see a hunting dog, particularly a bird dog, doing what is called quartering? He enters a field to look for Bob White. He runs fast, zigzagging back and forth, until every bit of that field has been covered. If Bob White is in the field he is certain to be found. TIn just this same way Shadow the Weasel worked along the old stone wall. He would pop out of one side, disappear between the stones and pop out on the other side. Back and forth from side to side he worked. Two or three times he stopped and very, very thoroughly went over the ground with his nose. “There’ very faint smell of Chip- munk,” muttered he. “Yes, sir, and uniess my nose decelves me—and I have never known it to do that— there's a little smell of Wood Mouse mixed up with that smell of Chip- munk. And, as I live, I smell rabbit! Goodness, yes! I smell rabbit! It must be that Peter Rabbit has been fooling ound over here. He ought to stay at home, where he belongs. Now I can’t smell anything but rabbit!” Now, Bhadow moves very quickly and it wasn’t long before he was half way down the old stone wall. He was getting near to the entrance to the home of Striped Chimunk. Of course, he didn’t know it. My, wolldn't Striped Chipmunk have been worried if he had known! And wouldn’t White- foot the Wood Mouse have heen wor- ried if he had known! But neither knew and so there was no worrying whatever. Bo far Shadow's nose had discovered that at least thres people, any one of whom he would like to have caught, had been in the old stone wall within a few days, Pres- ently his nose picked up another scent. “Aha' said he. “Chatterer the Red Squirrel has been here, 1 think this old wtone wall will be a good place for me 1o stay a while.” He climbed out Lo the top of the wall for another look around. ~ There he discovered the weent of Happy Jack the Gray Squir- rel, who had run along that wall only a short time hefore.

FEATURES. Rhows How Husbands and Wives Make or Mar Lives “Am I My Brother's Keeper?” DorothyDix A Wife Can Make or Break the Health, Happiness and Success of Her Husband—IIe Can Turn Her Into a Nagger or a Jolly Companion. CHICAGO a young woman committed suicide the other day and although her husband was not even in the house at the time at which she killed herself, he has been arrested on a charge of manslaughter because he “goaded his wife to death” by quarreling with her. This raises anew the query asked by another member of the younger generation at the very beginning of the world: “Am I my brother's keeper?" And this question Is never more pertinent than when we consider the rela tionship between husbands and wive: It has long been held that a wife is responsible for what her husband The first man started it by laying his shortcomings on his wife’s shoul- ““The woman Thou does. ders, and every son of Adam has followed in his footsteps. didst give me’ has alw: been man's favorite alibi. Tt is never a man's own incompetence and laziness, or his reckless spec- ulations that make him fail in business. It is his wife's extravagance. It is never a hankering for liquor and the thrill it gives him that causes a man to be a drunkard. He is driven to drink by his wife's nagging. It is never a man’s Iack of loyalty and philandering instinct that makes him desert his wife and childien for a flapper. It is his wife's fault, because she is no longer as alluring as when she was 20, We are all quick enough to blame the wife for the hushand's sidestep- ping, but, curiously enough, we do not fit_the shoe on the other foot and blame the husband for the wife's faults. When a woman is a sloppy and slovenly housekeeper, you never hear anyhody why wonldn't she be with a husband like the one she has? ment is there for a woman to work herself to death to make things nice and comortable for a man who knocks every- thing she does and never hands her a kind word? The reason she has slumped 18 because he has taken every bit of heart and ambition out of her by his fault-finding.” VWHen a woman is extravagant you never hear any one s can't blame her much. ller husband never tells her anything about his business, so that she doesn’t know what she can afford to spend.” Or, “It is her husband's fault. lle won’t give her an allowance and makes her come to him like a beggar for every penny, and he raves like a madman, anyway, when the bills come in, &0 she feels she might just as well have the scone over a big bill as a little one.” Or, “She knows her husband is run. ning around with other women and spending money on them, so she feels that she might as well get her part of what he makes.” “Really, you ‘When a wife falls In love with another man you never hear any one say: ‘“Poor soul, can you blame her when she was married to tnat frozen fish? Why, since the day they were married he has never paid her a co pliment, or noticed how she looked, or given her the slightest indication that he atill had a particle of affection for her, and she was starving for love and tenderness.” No, we never hear ahout husbands driving their wives into wrongdoing, and yet, as between the two, the hushand's influence over the wife is far greater than her influence over him. This Is inevitable, because women are more chameleonlike than men, and take on more easily the color of their environment. In virtually every family it is the wife who adapts herself to the hus- band, and because a wife's physical and mental well-being lies in her hus- band’s hands more than his does in hers. A man has a thousands sources of interest and happines outside of the home, a thousand compensations in an unhappy marriage that a woman does not have. But that a wife is largely responsible for what happens to her husband, no one will deny. To a great extent she is responsible for his health. When a man gets married he turns over his stomach to his wife's keep- ing, and if she is a poor cook she can poison him on soggy pies and heavy bread. She can starve him to death by giving him the wrong kind of food. She can turn him into a bilious pessimist who hasn't the courage to attempt to branch out into anything, or convert him into a nervous wreck who will break down by the time he is 40. A wite ia responsible for her husband’s happiness. a home that is a heaven on earth or a hell. £he can show him love and tenderness and appreciation and understand- ing.

She can make v e e A ‘WIFE is largely responsible for her husband’'s success. friends for him or enemies. She can keep the flame of ambition alight in his soul or put it out. She can boost him up or pull him down. She can rl‘:‘:‘f him with her extravagance or lay the foundation of his fortune in her thrift. : She can make him 80 it Is true that a wife Is largely responsible for her husband, and it Is true that many a wife drives her husband away from home and wrecks his rl:reir.‘hu: it is equally true that hushands are responsible for many of their wives' faults. Mot husbands are responsihle for their wives being peevish and fretful that thelr wives need to make them happy and satisfied is a little jollying and a few kisses and a modicum of love-making. Most husbands are responsible for having nagging wives. Women nag because they have so few interests in life that they have nothing new to think they have so few interests in life that they have nothing new to think about about and be interested in, 8o they harp on every grievance and make moun- tains out of molehills. A few movies and a little amusement would give wife something to talk about besides how much husband smokes, or the way he drops his ashes on the floor. Husbands are responsible for their wives not being companions to them because they don't take the trouble to chum with them. And so it goes through the whole calendar of connubial recriminations. Husbands and wives are responsible for the very faults they complain of In each other, and each might say, did the little priest in Cable's story iod forgive you and me, my brother, for that man's sin."
