Love’s Awakening By Adele Katie’'s Careful Search Makes an Awkward Situation for Two Gentle Conspirators It was one thing to assure Lillian | that Marion was slowly getting over | the aversion to her stepfather which | as making her mother so unhap-| py. It was quite another to helicve my own comforting words. For the | sight of the young girl's involuntar- ily stiffening in rigid disapproval of the familiar comradely speeches di- | rected by Harry Underwood toward | his wife had discouraged as well as | angered me. When the child had disciplined herself into charming graciousness over the new motor | car Harry Underwood had bought | as a surprise to his wife and h stepdaughter, 1 had hoped that she | was conquering the rancor she had | felt toward her steptather. But this | present exhibition of childish jea ousy over a famiiar atfectionate nickname made me long to shako | her soundly. Lillian, however, seemed ly cheered by my resssuring murs. “You're a regular first aid pack- et,” she told me fondly, “and I'm | going to belicve you and start en joying this drive.” 'm with you," ing, and as if the mutual de were a mascot, there was bit of unpleasantness with the entire ride o rouds were all that Dicky had promised, and the | new car lived up to its reputation | for noiseless tness and comiort. That Dicky also had observed Marion's color, I guessed when he proposed automobile poker, a favor- ite pastime of his, to the two girls, | and for the rest of the journey their | merry contest over the number of | the auto licenses adorning the cars | we met, engrossed them. Lillian and I reveled in the countrywide brave | in the flaunting volors of the autumn flowers while Harry Underwood gave himself wholly to the joy of | driving the new car—I knew that!| he had not had his hands on the| kind of car he liked for a long time | definite- mur- 1 told her, smil- aration no other connected A PAINFUL LESSON By Thornton W. Burgess Wisdom we must oft obtain Through experience and pain Mrs, Yowler. Mrs. Yowler was a watchtul moth- er. The two young Yowlers were getting big enough now to go ven- turing for themselves more or less. That is to say, they would in the dusk of carly evening go hunt for wood mice around the ledge where their home was. They didn't have to be taught to hunt. The love of hunt- ing and the knowledge of how hunt was born in them. You see, | thelr father and mother, Mr. and | Mrs. Yowler, are famous hLunters. At first they had been satisfied to | hunt such things as beetles and | other large insects. They would | pounce on these just as Black Pussy would pounce on a mouse. They | would utter funny little fierce | growls .But as they grew bigger in- | sects were too small game. One day their mother brought them a young hare. Another timc she brought| them a young grouse JAfter that they were always looking for young | hares nad young grouse. But even when they were, as they supposed, hunting by them- gelves, their mother would k 1 watchful eyve on them .She had a way of suddenly appearing just in time to show them how to do thing, or to warn them against do- ing A thing. BEut she couldn't be with them all the time, for she her- self had to hun!, and so they had to learn some lessons for themselves, It happened one evening that while mother was off hunting the two kittens had strayed a little far- | ther than usual sently they | heard a strange rustling sound.

He was grenting to him- self frequently. He had a fur coat with long hair, but in that hair there seemed to be something rattled and rustled. The Kittens couldn’t understand it at all. The | stranger climbed up on one end of that tree trunk and began to sl walk along it. Behind him he drag ged & queer, rather broad stubby | 1ail. He didn’t try to hold it up.

The Hurt Story Steadfut Wo-u Garrison We rolled into the farmyard at five minutes to eight, Mr. Under- umph when he had brought the car to a halt. “I told you I'd get you here on time,” he said, and I hastened to appropriate the boast before he could address his wife directly, 1 did not want Marion to spoil the end of the drive by another exhibition, even though silent, of her dislike of him. “You surcly kept your promise,” I told him heartily. “I think you have a marvelous car there.” Dicky was half way up the steps as I finished. “I'll tell Katie said, but our faithful was already at the door. “Dinner she ready by time you ash 0op,” she said.

Health Hints BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN | Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hy- gein, the Health Magazine Sauerkraut is cabbage. Cabbage contains a small amount of starch, but a large amount of cellulose or fibrous material. Such material is not easily digested and adds bulk to the food. Cabbage also contains vitamins, iron and some mineral salts. Raw cabbage is richer in vitamins A, B and C than is cooked cabbage, but even cook2d cabbage contains a considerable amount of these vitamins, Cabbage contains some iron and also some copper. The copper scems to be important because it helps the blood build hemoglobin, there coloring matter that carries oxygen. Changed By Bolling A few years ago an English in- vestigator showed that whereas one gram of raw cabbage every day would protect a guinea pig from scurvy, it took 20 times that amount, if the cabbhage had been | boiled for one hour in an open | kettle. Four grams of canned cabbage daily was sufficient to protect the animal against scurvy., The canned cabbage had been heated just as long as boiled cabbage and at a { higher temperature but the heating was harmlcss as the cabbage had | been boiled in an air-tight can. It is apparently the oxygen that kills the vitamnis. Kraut Jujce Much reccnt hokum attaches to the sale of sauerkraut juice. Sauer- kraut julce consists largely of lactic acid and salt. A small glass of | sauerkraut juice contains over a | teaspoon of salt and 1is naturally just as laxative as the same amount of salt would be if taken in any | other way. Persons with certain diseases of the kidneys, persons who are quite fat, and persons who have dropsy must be very careful about the |amount of salt they take inte their bodies. Obviously sauerkraut julce | cannot do them any good and may do some harm. Finally, nobody knows just how much of the vitamins comes | through with the juice when it is separated from the original cabbage {ont of which the sauerkraut juice is made.

Velvet for Sports The first steal of the season comes in the field of sports where I notice that clothes are nonchal- antly borrowing the rich figured velvets and making them into smart informal things. Dorls Borden wore a stunning example of this at Rumson last week — a pleated skirt of lustrous velvet in rich red with tan and beige figures in it, vet. In her car she had a cute cardigan of the velvet, too. At Saratoga, too, bright abound in spectator clothes. ¥.

A Coat ¥rom Paris The individual looking autumn coat — with a discreet touch of fine fur—seems to be Paris’ con- tribution to America’s happiness this autumn, judging by those re- turning from France. When friends met Mrs. William Hayward, wife of Col. William Hayward, former U. 8. District At- torney ,as she arrived on the 8.

White 'frousered Girls Seen at Summer Resort Provincetown, Mass., Aug. 24 (P — It is becoming more and more diffi- cult to distinguish between men and girls at this old Cape Cod town, now a popular summer resort and artist colony. Long white trousers and bandan- na handkerchiefs, the newest articles in young women's attire here, have achieved wide popularity. The white trousers are worn in conjunction with men’s white shirts and are to be seen everywhere.
