BY RUTH SIDE TALKS CAMERON Creature “Steam heat and electric lights!” Not long ago I was passing through the streets of a city in which there has been much building lately. Blocks of two and three-family houses were going up everywhere. And everywhere one saw those two inducements blazoned across the top of the “To Let” or “For Sale” in print that dwarfed all the rest. One would think that absolutely the only things worth looking fer in a house were steam heat and elec- ! tric lights! Never mind about any individpal- ity of architecture,—what is that to one who has these supreme blessings, steam heat and electric lights? Do not ask if there are open fire- places. What could anyone want of an open fireplace when a beautiful shiny new radiator floods the room with heat? ‘What Do You Want of Sunshine. What if there is not space enough between the houses to let the-sun- shine into the rooms? What could you want of anything se old-fash- loned as sunshine when you have steam for heat and |electricity = for light? . A friend of mine took half of an old-fashioned house in preference to a new apartment. She has large rooms, open fireplaces and a wealth of sunshine. But she hasn't steam heat or electric light.. And how | friends who have these blessings pity her. As if she were not better off than many of them! | though By ADELE Why Dicky Decided Not to “Humor Mother.,” “Well!

It was she who nud felt that their separation was the casier way—not he. He was even denied the luxury of venting his feelings on Nicoll. ¥ven te the conventional husband who felt Timself encroached upon by another man, Nicoll'’s conduct would have of- fered nothing to seize on as outraging honor or even convention.

Of course I had no ‘‘past,” my life had always been an open book, but the conviction came to me suddenly that. my mother-in- law’s anger had something to do with Robert Gordon, the mysterious South | American millionaire, who had thade me so uncomfortable by trying to find | out my identity, and who—after hav- ing at last obtained an introduction | Ito Dicky, and through him to me— Ihad tola'me that he had known my { mother and father, I knew that Robert)Gordon was also staying at the Sydenham.

But it would.never do for me to let Dicky guess my thoughts. I knew, al- though he had said nothing, only looked at me curiously, resented my asking Mr, Gordon to our home that he might tell me of my mother, and I did not wish to turn his thoughts in the direction of the mys- | terious millionaire, So. masking my very with a smile I turned to him and said lightly: AMERICAN MOTHERS ADOPT NEW METHODS No Longer Scold and Nag Children. ‘ot Hundred mothers instead of | dies are away off, now look for | source of trouble, | Children are naturally | smiling, active, ana time they are cross, fretful, quarrelsome and all out of sorts, not find fault, tongue and hot feverish bad breath.
