The ll:n Stery [ Steadfast Woman By Adele Garrison + ; siorton Moveals the Startling Reason | before you told me about his going She Has S0 Long Disliked Her Steplathurs I went away from Lillian’s room with Hghtened spirts. Characteris- tically she had said nothing directly of her own feeling toward Robert Sgvarin, but there was that ju her voice and eyes when she was speak- | ing of her husband which told me that while she mever would forget the tragic figure of the famous ar- tist who had loved her. Harry Un- derwood need not fear he ever would have to “play second fiddie to any- one but Marion.” As I came into the corridor, T saw Marion standing at the window at the end of the hall. She turned as 1 closed the door of her mother's room behind me, and putting her finder to her lips, the door of Mary’s room. “Mary said I could come in herd she sald. “I'm afraid mother 1igh come to your room or mine on some errand, and I don't want her 1o sce us together. Do you know Auntic Madge, I just feel awtul about—Mr. Underwood's going away to the city on my account.

And he really was lovely about the car. Really, Auntie Madge, I'd like to feel decent toward him on mother’s account, but I've never been able to do it.” My pulses quickened at her naive admission, but 1 let no trace of my feeling apear in my voice or face. “Don’t force any feeling, dear,” I said. “All any of us ask of you is to consider your stepfather with a perfectly open mind, throwing all your prejudices against him away,” She looked at me oddly. “Do you know what made | commence to hate Mr. Underwood {she said. i , dear, tell me. ‘Once, when 1 was a little thing, staying with you while mother was gon® on a trip, I fell aslecp and woke up to hear you and Uncle Dicky talking about mother and Mr. Under- wood. I was cither too small to know 1 shouldw’t listen, or more probably forgot any lessons I might have had along that line. At any rate, T heard you t he had made it terribly for mother when my own father di=d and I came back to her, that he didn't like her ave her pretty gray hair for me, but wanted her to look young for going, I couldn’t ask him to come him, and that he had gone away be- back before my vacation ends—pre- tend something about wanting fo learn more about the car. “Don’t pretend anything” T told her. “Remember, there are few neo- ple with keener percepiions than your mother and Mr. Underwood. It you honestly feel that you would like him to come back before the end of your vacation, tell him so. I not, keep still. There will be no Pharm done, for assuredly neither hic nor your mother will expect any such advance from you."” She looked at me thoughtfully. “Do you know?” she said at last in the tone of a student working out an abstruse problem—"I don't fecl half as edgy toward him 1 dhl Jeause T was coming home to her. 1 caught my breath in the dismay that adu'ts fesl when the results of | their cwrclessness in diseussing things where children ecan hear, are hrought home.

Burgess BACK TO BACK United e'en the weak are strong, And right will triumph over wrong. —Johnny Chuck. Reddy Fox had called from the corn just beyond the carrot-patch to Mrs. Reddy and she had promptly started in that direction. Before she reached the carrot-patch she covered Johnny Chuck and she guessed that what Reddy wanted was her assistance in catching Johnny, Then, when she the edge of the carrot-patch, she discovered Jerry Muskrat and Mrs. Muskrat, The eyes of Mrs. Reddy sparkled. This looked gooi! It look- ed too good to be true. She hadn't & .doubt that, working together, she and Reddy would be able to get one of thowe Muskrats, an perhaps both. Jerry Muskrat and Mrs. Muskrat had discovered’ Mrs. Reddy. They faced her, their lips drawn back to show their sharp teeth. But when they faced her they were back to the corn where Reddy was hiding.| Johnny Chuck saw this at once. So Johnny moved over and sat with his back to Jerry Muskrat and Mnr: Muskrat. In this way he faced the hiding place of Reddy Fox. If they oould just keep back to back they might keep Reddy and Mrs. Reddy of for some time. “Whatever you do don’t run” said Johnny to Jerry Muskrat and Mps. Muskrat. “If one of you should run it would be just what Reddy and Mrs. Reddy want. You weuldn’t have a chance. But if we all keep back to back they are go- ing to hesitate about coming Wwith- in reach of our teeth.” Johnny spoke as hopefully as he eould. He sounded a great deal mere hopeful than he really felt. You sce, he wanted to keep up the| eourage of Jerry and Mrs. Muskrat. By this time Reddy had come out from the corn. He broadly and Mrs. Reddy was grin- ning broadly. Things were coming | just the way they wanted them Reddy trotted over to where Mrs, Reddy was sitting and they put their heads together. They were planning how best 1o make an at- tack. When they were together that way Johnny Chuck turncd so as to| face them. Thus all three were ing Reddy and Mrs. Reddy, But the moment Reddy left Mrs. Reddy and started to work around b Johnny Chick turned so to Reddy, “I can take care of Reddy Fox you two together can tak o v.” €aid he to Jerry rat and Mrs. Muskrat “We'll do our best.” squ ry. fac- A Reddy suddenly fierce rush at Jerry hoped to trighten Muskrat into runnin doing that th closer tozether : Reddy two siis of her pause abruptly sire to fool 1hos Then Reddy rus but he took pair close.

A large octagonal jade, cut > enhanced The dinner gown at the left has a bloused bodice, draped skirt and white gardenias. dion pleated skirt, cut circular, with a dipping back, Uively bertha give distinction t0 & dinner gown. BY HENRI BENDEL Center fs an accors The tiered skirt, right, dipping backline and a New York, Oct. 9 — If a woman | Particularly requires opportunity totne rapid changes which are affect has only one new evening gown in her early winter wardrobe, black velvet is an ideal choice. Black has the triple advantage of smartness, of being wearable time after time without one's tir- ing of it and a certain chamelion quality of looking like a different gown by the mere changing of ac- cemories, Velvet this season fs the loveli- est fabric the markets have offered in years. Soft, pliable, thin, it can be used pleated, shirred, plain, with lace, chiffon or by itself, to great advantage. Choose a Dinrer Gown It Milady is having ong new gown and one only right now per- hape the choice of a rather infor- mal one or a dinner gown is the best selection. So I have three sugges- tions that might be useful. First there is the dinner gown with the graceful swooping sil- houette gained by the double use of the circular theme, for the skirt and for a decorative bertha. . This gown has a tiered skirt, with graduated cut so it falls much long- er in the back., It has a somewhat moulded bedice, which accents the bertha's loveliness. This is made of black chiffen with a deep appliqued horder of hand thread lace. It, like the skirt, bas a much longer back cut than front. A little color could be added iIf one chose, but nothing ig smarter than the black-white trim for a black gown. A Youthfal Theme A more formal dinner gown is one of black panne velvet that has a surplige theme for its bodice, ending fn a soft girdle which falls in very graceful felds on account of the material that fashions it This follows the lines of a pilece model, a youthful theme al- ways. An intricately cut skirt gives a swerving longer back line to this model. A circular side flounce adds much to the grace of the lines and gives more fullness also. A shower of white gardenias decorate the sile, an individual sort of trimming that is lovely on a siender woman. Wile U Necks The neck of this gown is simple but very law in the back, in one of those wide U’s that are popular this year. The dinner gown can be a very informal type of frock and appear sumptuous this winter when made of beautiful velvet. Such a one has an accordion pleated skirt which is cut | longer on both sides to give an un- usual line. It has something new in belts, a leather lined belt that gives a certain smart tailored look to the gown, The black velvet gown, however, is not reserved for the wardrobe of limited capacity. Nothing is a better first choice this year than black velvet. I have made innum- erable different very formal gowns of black velvet, for T think every woman should have at least one black gown. Tiered, Flaring Skirt A very unusual one has a yoke would shoulder straps of sparkling paillettes and a tiered skirt with each tier edged with the same trim- ming. It is cut on somewhat prin- cess lines, with the skirt flaring with each tler wider than the one above it. * Another rather severely taflored black velvet has a sparkling little sleeveless jacket, called a cocktatl Jacket, of gleaming jet, the lower edge of which ix worked in a rich colorful pattern of roses in pinks, reds and greens. Health Hints BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Modical Association and of Hy- geia, the Health Magazine The treatment of tuberculosis as emphasized by Dr. Lawrason Brown is based on four fundamental fac tors—rost, good food, fresh air and education. two- | {eral sources. inot be clear; recuperate after fatigue. Hurts Require Rest Every living thing requires rest because activity uses up certain ma- terials. Injuries demand rest for re- pair. If the skin over the knuckle is broken, the knuckle must be held still so that the tissue may properly recover. Tuberculosis is a disease that burns up body tissue. Hence pro- lcnged rest is necessary for repair. The time given to rest varies with each person and the patient with tuberculosis must be studied as an individual in order to determine just how much and what kinds of rest he should have. Dr. Brown insists that when high fever is present, the patient should not be allowed to move either hand or foot, writing must be forbidden and even reading greatly curtailed, it it is permitted at all. The valne of Quiet Visitors are excluded, all excite- ment avoided, and talkative nurses particularly kept away from the pa- tient, Rest in sueh cases means not only. absolute physical rest, but also complete mental rest, ‘The length of time the patient re- mains in bed depends entirely on his condition and the speed of his recovery.

Song Is Editor's Nots i written for the Service by Rosa Ponselle, dramatic soprano of the Metropoiitan Opera company, New BY ROSA PONSELLE Even if you have a lovely voice, you may feel that your songs do not receive the right appreciation. People with voices not nearly as £ood as yours are more enthusiastic- ally recetved. Then a little self- questioning is due as to why your songs, to use a professional term, do not go across better. Your trouble may come from sev- Frist of all, enun- ciation of the words you sing may second, those words may not be sung with expression; third, you may not put emphasis on words where it properly belongs. All these things or any one of them will keep your listeners from fully enjoying a song, because they do not know what it is all about. The first named of these troubles, indistinct enunciation, can be over- come if you recite slowly the words you are to sing, uttering every one of them distinctly, and being always careful to pronounce the final wyl- lables. A common fault with many sing- ers is that they drop the voice on final syllables or, so to speak, sw low them. This fault leaves many words to be guessed by the listener. Agnin, a singer may be so busy trying to give lovely tones that the pronunciation of the words is sac- rificed to it, consequently the song is nothing but a melody, and might as well be played on a violin as far as words are concerned. As we all know, certain letters are hard to give s is the first of | jWhen Words Are Indistinct, Only A Melody tention while the other will fall flat. In singing & song it is exacty the same. To arouse interest the words of a song must be alive with mean- ing. You would not say carelessly, “I love you.” You would say it as if you meant ft. As to giving important words em- phasis /in a sentence. words which must be emphasized to bring out the full meaning, take that same sen- tence, “'I love you.” The two words demanding special emphasis are LOVE and YOU.
