Love’s Awakening The II:'ul Story [} Steadfast Woeman By Adele Garrises wesmmnasnmansnnnnns’ Madge “Listons In” On a Telephone Betweea Mary and Georges At the sound of Mary Harrison's voice talking over the telephone to Prince Georges of Trees whom she knew only as George Jackson, I braced myself for a disagreeable task—that of listening in upon her conversation. All of us had agreed that it was vitally necessary to keep track of all the young girl's activi- ties until we solved the mystery of her weekly checks drawn to Janet Rawden, and equivalent to the greater part of her allowance from her relatives, the Braitwaites. But 1 felt a shame-faced kinship to my little maid, Katie, whose propensity for eavesdropping has earned her the epithet of “snooper” from my mother-in-law, as I stood at the telephone with the receiver at my ear. I tried to look as it I were waiting for a dilatory operator to get my number but I am sure I would have deceived no one who chanced to see me. To my relief, however, no one came into the upper hall where I stood and the telephone conversa- tion was mercifully short. “I haven't a thing to do,” Prince Georges assured Mary after laugh- ing amusedly at her slangy query. “But I am deeply grateful to you for assuming that 1 ever think— deep thoughts — or any other kind. How can I serve you? I am hoping that is the reason for your tele- phone. Do you know this is the first time you ever have so honored me?" There was distinct gratification in his voice and I felt sudden annoy- ance with Mary. Her chief charm for this fastidious European prince had been her aloofness — she had made him earn every smile she had given him. In his essential igno- rance of the little ways of American girls, he might fancy that she was hecoming romantically interested in him. “Thanks for the salad dressing.” Mary told him carelessly. “But don't get 1t into your noodle that I'm perishing of love for you because I appalling frankn.se moderns. “If 1 ouly coald cherish that thought in my ‘noodle’ I'd be willing to die myself,” he told ber -rompt- of the young y. “Well! you won't need to notify the undertaker this morning, Mary informed bim dryly. *“But I'm won- dering if you wouldn’t be good- natured enough to take me for a short drive this afternoon. There's a shop in Eastnampton where 1 want to match some embroidery silk, and 1 don’t want to take Aun- tie Madge's car, for it's the only one here just now." “Don’t think of going any other way but with me” he adjured her eagerly. “I'm overjoyed at the thought of being of service to you. What time shall I call for you?” “Would half after one be too carly?" Mary asked a bit hesitantly, and Prince Georges' voice faintly echoed the surprise in my own mind. Luncheon would barely be over by that time and no shop in Easthamp- ton closed before six o'clock while the drive was no more than half an hour at the most. “Half after one,” he repeated & hit doubtfully, then resolutely. “No indeed that’s a perfectly good hour for me. I'll be at your front gate at that time.” “And I'll be hanging over it," Mary assured him laughingly. “Thanks a lot, George. I'll take you shopping the next time you're out of embroidery silk. 8o long.” She hung up the receiver and I heard her quick footsteps down the lower hall. With infinite pains I hung up the receiver, and tiptoed to the double doors leading to Katie's quarters and the kitchen stairs. There were many inatruc- tions I wished to give my little maid concerning the preparations for the Brixton visit, and I had a dozen things to do besides. Rut I had made up my mind that I, too, would be at Easthampton that aft- ernoon. Copyright, Feature Service, 1928, Newspaper Ine. called you up,” she added, with the Jimmy Has a Fright By Thomas W.

Had he not taught a silly young dog a lesson? Had he not outwitted the man who had set wicked steel traps for him? He felt that he had a right to fecl pleased with himself. Once he met Reddy Fox. Reddy grinned at him, said good evenin and went along about his business. Reddy had no desire to quarrel with Jimmy 8kunk. A little later he met Old Man Coyote. Old Man Coyote grinned at him. “Hello, Jimmy!" sald he. “You are looking fine. I don't know when I have seen you fatter.” “I am feeling fine,” sald Jimmy. “How is the world using you, Old Man Coyote?” '‘80-80," replied Old Man Coyote. “Just s0-s80. You know, Jimmy, any one as fat as you are is very tempting.” A Jimmy 8kunk grinned and at the same time he raised his big plumy tail. Old Man Coyote hastily stepped backward. “You don’t have to warn me, Jimmy," said he. “You don't have to warn me. I didn’t mean anything personal by that remark.” “That's good,” said Jimmy. “I'm glad you didn't.” With this ecach went his way, each with respect for the other. Jimmy was amused. He knew just how Old Man Coyote felt. “There 'is nothing like being well armed for defense,” said Jimmy. “It certainly does save a lot of worry. It doesn't make any difference to me whom I meet, less it is one of those creatures with a dreadful gun. It is a great fecling not to *be afraid.” Jimmy's course led him along the edge of a little patch of woodland. Now, Jimmy should have been on the watch for trouble there.

Hooty missed, for he couldn’t see any too well yet. Jimmy found an opening among the corn stalks and crept in. There he lay, perfectly still. (Copyright, 1928, by T. W.

A little work on the bedroom floor will bowl over a ballroom.” “Most Women Are Lazy” After a private exhibition she went on: “I have come back to Paris from a trip around the world, and 1 have been asked in almost every language under the sun how I keep fit at my mature age. Women | seem to think 1 have some secrets. “I have only those that 1 have often confided to women—stay away from cakes and pies, run away from whipped cream anl ich foods generally, and never shirk your exercise. “The trouble with Is that they are lazy bring back their waist line by ly- ing in bed.

In a Mixed Diet Flour made of whole wheat cone tains some of the vitamins in cone siderably larger amount than does || white flour. It also contains rough« age or bran, not avallable in the more sophisticated food. If we lived almost entirely on bread or flour, it would be exceedingly ime portant that whoie wheat bread be eaten instead of white bread. However, most people nowadays cat a mixed diet, which includeq ! not only flour but milk, vegetables, fruits, eggs and meat. With such a mixed diet all essential vitamine are provided in abundance, and the very small differences in content off vitamins in whole wheat as agains§ hite bread is of little importance.
